Paid, and ready to tear the league apart with my new draft!
No bottler's or side bets for me this time, sorry. Eyes on the prize.
PS. I think Nkunku is a trap. I think he will end up like Joao Pedro last season - over-hyped and then burning thousands of people's teams. (and like Darwin the season before that. That is why you never play someone who's just been signed, or who has played so few games in the EPL that it might as well be a new signing.)

That's some huge pot to fight for 
Let's see If I'll be able to participate in this year's edition... It's just about a week away now. I don't even have team draft yet, neither do who is playing where and who is out, except for the transfers with huge publicity, lol.

Hey!
I am happy to announce that this year our sponsor will be Rollbit (special thanks to Hhampuz).
The sponsorship fee will be 0.1 BTC and I expect that the entry fees should be equivalent to the amount we collected last year (another 0.07 BTC). In addition to the sponsorship fee, we will also have free bets for the winners of each game week. Trofo will also take care of setting up our league within 24 hours.

Well. Looks like Sojo/buway is going to be playing FPL once more. I'm playing in everything else, so why not here too right? More reason for everyone else to join, as I am likely to continue in the direction of "don't know what I'm doing". Heh.
Careful, boys. The age of Nunez is arriving. #brokenrecords

I quite share your optimism with Nunez, I also think he will have better season, my only fear is if the new coach wouldn't prefer Jota or even Cody Gakpo firsthand, but I think whoever is taking up the CF role for Liverpool this season is going to have a better goal scoring season than they did last season.

Surprise, surprise, I knew you will find your way here again. There is no cure for Fantasy bug once you get bitten.Careful, boys. The age of Nunez is arriving. #brokenrecords
Still didn't make a single draft. Usually, at this time, I am already on my 10th iteration. Don't know if that is good or bad. I guess time will tell.
I've missed all of the unique IDs this season again and I have not yet gained access to my account. It's the same story every season, and I believe the email on that account has been compromised (I'm afraid to open it), so I'm still trying to recall the password (trying to remember one last symbol) hahaha.
Do transfer windows close before the start of the season? I recall clubs submitting appeals to the FA to prevent transfers in the midst of the season; I'm not sure if those requests were ever granted.
Arsenal and Tottenham cried in the past, Brighton cried last season.

This season i will try to put a little more of effort in my team, seems like i can grab something if i do this in a more serious way.

Well, so far, the coach is managing him and other injury-prone players in the team properly, doing well to take him off during the game and not stressing him with full game minutes. When the season starts, the coach has to continue like this because it will be more aggressive for the team and players from the very first game where they play against City. It is looking like it will be Manchester United with the bulk of injury problems this season, as they have already started with it.
Reece James should be able to go the entire season, I expect so.

Enzo Maresca plan to use Nkunku in a more less intense role, he said Nkunku will be playing more in the middle ( behind the striker) so we may have much of him next season.

I've heard something similar for the third year in a row.Now things are different after the surgery, the trouble calf has been replaced with a new one.

I'm not concerned about the results; my focus is on injuries, and so far, I'm satisfied with how we're handling the Nkunku and Lavia situation; by this time last season, we were roughly 2-3 players down before the season began, with several more suffering with fitness. I'm not going to judge him solely on a few preseason games; we were the best team in terms of chances created and possessions; there were a few blunders from the backline, but we're improving.

Should we still believe in Enzo Maresca's project with Chelsea, or is the new season going to be packed with all forms of excuses again? Chelsea conceded two early goals against Manchester City and four in total again, like they did against Celtic. One win out of four pre-season games is not looking really good to me. Chelsea will play Real Madrid next, another big test.

Chelsea will play Real Madrid next, another big test.Arne Slot has integrated better with the Liverpool team than Maresca has, and although pre-season games are not a perfect judge of the progress made with a team by a new manager, some coaches who just joined new clubs have started showing that they are having a good effect on their new team in preparation for the new season.
Kompany is recording good results with Bayern in the pre-season.
Hansi Flick too for Barcelona; why is Maresca still giving excuses?
You can't win/fight for the league title without a proper striker; Pep understands this, but others do not; it'll be the same season over and again until Pep leaves or other clubs start buying like Manchester City.
City still won the league in 21/22 when their "proper strikers" were Gabriel Jesus and Ferran Torres though, so that doesn't really apply to them.
Then again, nothing does, really 🙃
Oh boy both scored 16 goals and city still manage to win the trophy - man only Pep can win the title without a proper striker, do you guys remember how he used Fabregas as false 9 and still win the Laliga in 2010 season ( 2010 I guess)
Yeah nothing does.....

Not without a good striker - a problem Liverpool is facing since Suarez left too, Arsenal would need a 20 goals a season striker to give Pep a good fight, I was really expecting you guys to at least solve that problem this summer.

When we had Salah and Mane as wingers the times were good, because Firmino would just drop deep which would allow the to of them go go forward. We didn't need a striker per se.
Now Mane and Firmino are gone, presumably Salah is leaving this summer too, and we are back to life without a (good) striker.
Unfortunately, Liverpool let both go and were not able to replace them for two good summers now. I believe that's the area Manchester City has an advantage over the rest and has been keeping it close enough (Mario Balotelli, Edin Dzeko, Carlos Tevez, Sergio Aguero). These were all 25+ goal a season strikers replaced with 30+ goal striker (Halaand), and the upgrade has been insane. Chelsea won the league the last time they had a proper striker, same with Liverpool and Leicester City

He'd be a steal for anything below 11.
Chelsea created a lot last season, the only problem is that they created it for Jackson.

The only reason I wanted Poch to stay and for the club to get us a proper striker, our problem was quite obvious - get a proper striker and we're good to go. Osimhen £11m? It's doable price ( can still get you Isak/Wakins up front with good midfielders) just pray FPL Managers don't over hype the whole transfer....
What could be the price for Osimhen if he finally sign for Chelsea? £9.5 or £10m probably?

With Nkunku in the team they'll create even more, and Osimhen is the guy that gets goals. Strikers that don't shoot penalties (he shot for Napoli but pretty bad - he wouldn't shoot them for Chelsea) are always a risk though, especially if they cost a lot - which Osimhen would.

FPL towers would give him FU pricing like they did to so many other players and make him £12.5m.
I really liked that Arsenal team, I like this one too - so it isn't 'ooh you hate Arsenal'. Far from it.
We are becoming a better team, and with ESR now at Fulham, we can expect another new signing soon, with Mikel Merino being the most likely for me. Maybe we are winning it this season.
