We're pretty much underway.  This sums up how I'm feeling at the moment, even if it is only Liverpool v Stoke.

Bright start.  Stoke have hit the crossbar and Liverpool have had a goal ruled out for offside.

So, everyone has Mig yeah?

I also had Coutinho; that didn't pan out to well unless he can pick up a BP or 2.
Title: Re: EPL 13/14 Up late discussion thread

Yeah, i have Mig.  Kind of annoyed I made a last minute change to swap Johnson out for Coleman though. :(

gone with a theory now last year was my 1st time in EPL fantasy so bound to suck again

but  my theory is sometimes it's good to have 2 good goalies and 1 i wanted had injury troubles so thought i'd go 2 good ones so i could swap

i took ruddy and vorm
ruddy scored quite well last year before doing a thigh injury that kept him out for nearly rest of year so tihn injury free he can be good and then vorm can be good and just in case ruddy gets injured u get the idea  ;)

probably a bit silly i know since really u don't need to swap keepers etc
but i had Mignolet the whole time then decided to be a bit different is all
Title: Re: EPL 13/14 Up late discussion thread

Not to many goals at halftime in all the fixtures, no idea about any other game (besides everton) bar the goals haha

Both good options DB. They will have plenty of saves which do add up over the year.

We should see our first price rise this morning, doing you want Berkley, best to get him in before 9AM (EST).

Coleman a possibility to go up as well, but more likely tomorrow.
