It’s transfer deadline-day and one of the most exciting days of the year in the football calendar and possibly one of the most important in terms of fantasy football, as come the end of play today many PL teams will have a different outlook depending on their business on this one day. With FPL taking a mini-break due to international fixtures this is the perfect time for many to reflect on today’s happenings and decide whether any new signings are worth a punt or will impact positively on the players they already have. We kick this article off early doors and look forward to seeing it through until the deadline tonight with all of your rumours, hopes and probably lies (!) along the way. Keep us up to date on anything you hear and most importantly how you think it will affect your fantasy football team…
Transfer Deadline Day
Raz
You are so right Wenger has missed out on Falcao BIG time, and MU not even in the CL – it beggers belief!
Could that be that money plays a role here 😉
Hmmm, United just need him for a season and Arsenal could’ve paid 8m for him, for a season. 😉
So no, money doesn’t play a role. If anything it’s Wenger’s lack of interest in trophies. 😛
I really want to play me WC now…
Possibly the best use for a computer science degree i’ve ever seen –

Woah
If I could understand the maths, it might be useful!
So I have not been hallucinating….this Falcao thing is REAL!!!???? And why would Real Madrid want CHicharito on loan when they could have gotten Falcao. Beats me. But What a signing for United! IMe thinks LVG my switch from a 3-5-2 to a 1-0-9 formation!!!
RvP needs a knew operation so it’s perfect.
You think he will have an operation so soon? LVG is building quite some team here! Raz btw I know you are dutch but do you support United a bit more now with LVG or what?? 😉
They looked like some team on Saturday!!
I don’t follow Kop! They looked like what team? Sorry for not understanding… 😉
With Falcao in for 1 season, no European football this is the ideal moment for them to operate RvP. Read he can’t be at 100 percent if they don’t go through with it. Maybe they’ll wait a few more weeks/months but I am certain he’ll be operated this season.
Ok Raz thanks for da input!! 😉 Looks like perfect timing in deed..only PL and FA cup so maybe less than 40 matches to play till end of season if we get knocked out by a Championship team..lol
@ Kop
Takes time. Van Gaal always struggles the first 3 months at a new club, think United will be fine. Really poor they only got 2 points at the moment though, they really need something from the next game. On that note, Arsenal just 3 points ahead of them. City/Pool/Spurs just 4 points ahead of them. They were never gonna win this season but they really aren’t that far off. I would be more worried about Arsenal at the moment. That team should play much better already.
KungFu & Raz – I was only being sarcastic 😉
Kop I got it once I posted..so couldn’t take it back haha! And to be fair..on paper they look scary in attack but weak in midfield for now unless Vidal comes? You never know haha! We still have loads of catching up to do and seing how you guys battered Spurs yesterday I sense a hell of a tense season and especially integrating that top 4 will be a very hard task for us! I think LVG only needs to sign Vidal, Hummels, Ramos, Lahm, and Fabregas…then we are good to go!!
Spurs were very poor yesterday as opposed to us being very good!
Can’t argue there Kop. Sterling has become such a player even though he did a Ricky Gervais shot (Rodgers’ words haha)!
I’m not sure about that Kop.. I think we played very well yesterday, selling us a little short there.
I think we controlled pretty much the entire game, except for a few short spells in the first half and there maybe could have been a couple more goals in there for us.
I was impressed by Lovren after a shaky start and Henderson was excellent throughout. Balo seemed to work quite hard and Sterling was aces apart from that silly shot after the glorious run. Anyway, just goes to show it’s a game of opinions eh…
Anyone else having problems login to fpl, security certificate expired
Just logged in on another browser and it worked. Google are retards sometimes! 😉
I tried Google and Firefox but giving me error page grr
It works on safari! Maybe today will all the transfer activity they are gonna go on maintenance for a while so as to quickly update! I am going on a limb here and say Falcao will be priced 10,5
Yarrrrrrr, same probs for me. What could it mean? I’m not an IT nerd. 😉
People are trying to hack our team and transfer our points out!!!
Hey guys. 1 ft. 0.5. Should I wc ? Or what transfers?
personally, i wouldn’t double up on Liverpool up front when the likes of Costa are doing well.
You need to sell El Ahmadi at some point as he has been sent abroad.
No City or Chelsea coverage in your team either.
Nor would I. At present Sterling is the best Liverpool option.
Whether you WC or not needs to be your decision 😉
+1
out of all the pool players i’d have Sterling on current form
