My draft squad is this
Pickford Lammens
Branthwaite Mykolenko Maguire Shaw Kadiolgu . I think i have spelt his name wrong but he plays for Brighton
Mbeumo Cunha KDH Ndiaye Gross
Brobbery Barry Wright .

I never get Haaland in any draft comp i have been in lot with the one Talkie Toaster ran in the last three years . I always finish up with an Everton forward as nobody else wants them :lol: but they usually have little spell of doing well in the season so hopefully that will continue but would be nice if was at the start of for a change.

I was a bit stunned getting first pick and Haaland went in accordingly (that's the end of his season :twisted: ) then the waiting while all the premiums go to everyone else. Managed to get Tarkowski before arnold :lol: and 3 more Man City, only Raya and Havertz from Arsenal and only Virgil from Liverpool (mind you not impressed at this early stage with them).
30 mins of fun :D

I could simply type "crap" 15x and answer the question quite accurately... but here goes:

Sánchez (Kinsky)
Calafiori, Porro, Lacroix, Van de Ven, Frimpong,
Wirtz, Cherki, Lashford, Tzolis, Garnacho,
Isak, João, Pissa.

Spurs have a new defence this season so it possible they might do better than you think and if they rubbish there will be some players who nododys has picked in defence who will do well and you will to try ang get them first. From draft point of view i would rather have your two forwards than any of my three maybe the coventry striker will be good time will tell . Tzolis could be a good pick he scored lots of goals for his previous team again it just depends if he can adapt to the premier quickly .

I presume Maguire and Shaw are likely to start the first two games if nobody else gets signed in defence for united Dr ? .

I was going to have Virgil the round you got hm i will swap Mykolenko for Virgil with you . Mykolenko will start nearly every game for Everton but i have lots of Everton players and when they play united in week 3 i could potentially have 10 of my 11 starters in that game which is risky :lol:

Week 2 Review
Dr Giggles wins the week with a good score of 65 so he has finished second and first in the opening two weeks is this the year the DR returns to his best form ? Wahine takes the runners up postion this week with a very good 59 points . Fred takes the final podium place with a score of 54 points . Fred like the Dr has made the podium for both weeks after his win in week 1 .

Stormrider had a better week finishing fourth with a score of 51. Arnold and the Terminators scored 49 points the same score as last week but unlike last week finished fifth this time in week 1 that score was good enough to grab the last place on the podium . F4C will disappointed with 32 points and Morgan struggled this week with 27 points .

Overall points and league postions after week 2 is this
1 Dr Giggles 118 points
2 Fred 110
3 Wahine 101
4 Arnold 98
5 Stormrider 94
6 Morgan 70
7 From 4 Corners 66

It wasn't just you they were rubbish for everyone :lol:

Barry is looking a good pick for the season with no competition for his place in the team.

I made mistakes this week even a two time champion makes mistake sometimes :lol:. I left gross on my bench 13 points :( and Mykolenko 4 points :roll: and started Shaw 2 poinrs :shock: :? and Brobbey 2 points :o .

It might be good for my draft team if Barry stays fit but it is rubbish for Everton we have hardly any players now until Jan and we have sold our best player for peanuts :( .

A few bad injuries to important players like Dewsbury Hall , Barry and few others and Everton could be in relegation battle a few weeks ago i thought they had chance of qualifying for europe next season with a couple of decent signings and at worse no chance of relegation but that has changed now after the idiots in charge of buying selling got everything wrong .

Great start to the season 8-) . I think this third season of the Magnificent 7 will be the best one so far . I am hoping everybody will still have a good chance of being the champion going into the final few weeks of the season . The gap between whoever is the champion and last will not be hunderds of points like last year i am sure .

I expect From 4 Corners to find some good form soon and Morgan who had a decent first week but poor second week will be back on form again soon . Everyone else has had a reasonable start some better than others obviously . Wahine for example had a nightmare first half of the season last year which gave her no chance of being champion but this year much better start 8-) .
