I'm so glad we don't have to depend on Sturridge being fit.

I see him as a fantastic bonus player who will score a couple of goals here and there when fit.

Felt like he didn't play anything at all last season. Still scored 13 goals

He can't press

Pogba's suspension is so dumb. Fifa might as well carry over cards from continental competitions and the World Cup and go full muppet mode.

 

[Beefy]

They've just got to enjoy the Prem money for one year and build a team for the Championship next season.

You mean Allam will enjoy the money.

Players should be suspended for poor tackles made in training

 

[Syder]

Well apparently they want to sell but a deal won't be completed until after the transfer window shuts. So either Allam accepts that he can't sell and invests in the team or Hull are completely fucked and 20th place is guaranteed theirs.

Yeah that is why I asked WTF is going on lol.

I expected an answer saying he picked up a suspension at Man Utd before leaving... Which would be stupid enough. Carrying over a suspension from ANOTHER LEAGUE though? Say what?! I mean drug abuse or seriously violent conduct, sure, globalize that ban, but a normal booking(s)? FIFA pls.

It is dumb but he wouldn't have played anyway. It was estimated he wouldn't be ready until September.

 

[Syder]

Pogba's debut is going to eclipse the disappointment that is No Man's Sky.

But nah, Pogba gonna rule the field on his debut

 

[Jarnet87]

Pogba going to put in a transfer request to Madrid as soon as he gets on the pitch with Roopney. The devourer of attacking play

 

[D4Danger]

Bollocks that means Pogba's first game is against Saints at Old Trafford.

I guess that's that.

Well they pulled out of getting a manager because the comp was £2m. So maybe a sign to come.

Meh makes no difference anyway. At best he was going to get 15 minutes or so, he's only been in training since Tuesday.

Now he'll possibly start at home the week after.

What's up with Bastia fans?

 

[Syder]

Messi reverses Argentina retirement decision

 

[SporeCrawler]

DFL Supercup is this Sunday (14.08) at 20:30 (UTC+2).

Borussia Dortmund against Bayern München

We know how this will end

 

[MoodyFog]

What's up with Bastia fans?

They're scum, as usual.

 

[Syder]

So Man Utd play next Friday, is this going to be a regular thing now? I remember they played Villa on a Friday early last season and then it never happened again strangely.

Can't remember if it's this season or the next one (think it is this one), but Friday games will definitely be a thing.

BVB winning?

This season there are about 10 matches I think.

 

[Blablurn]

BVB winning?

But of course

I hate that the game is always in Dortmund

 

[tim.mbp]

They're scum, as usual.

Are they always like that or is it a Paris vs. Corsica thing?

 

[Heebie Jeebies]

Matches 7 days a week will be glorious.

 

[Syder]

Matches 7 days a week will be glorious.

All we need now is to get Saturday 3 o'clock kickoffs broadcasted in the UK.

 

[Infernostew]

Not when I have to TiVo everything during the week. and go on social media blackout so I can watch the match after work. It's bad enough for Champs League matches (or Europa x.x now...).

This.

Made a quick little google doc to help those who want to get in the fantasy gaf leagues.

Here is my squad, feel good about it now but it always goes south for me so fast.

Oh bloody hell you've gone with Origi just as I decided he probably won't start lol

 

[Floody]

Oh bloody hell you've gone with Origi just as I decided he probably won't start lol

I don't think he will, think Klopp will go with Mane, Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino combo were they all kinda rotate up front, with Origi being a second half sub for one of them.

Yeah fuck it I'll stick with what I've got.

I've subbed Bojan for Gray I'm not sure Gray will start even though I think he's ready his pace is insane it always was years ago at Brum and I like Bojan he will play well until an injury.

Dammit, now you've got me doubting.

Get Mane in if you wanna keep 3 Lpool.

Saw one moron on Twitter saying he's done his fantasy team (Lpool fan) and would never put a United player in his team!

Really? It's THAT personal.

I bet a United fan is doing the same thing lol

There are people who do on all sides probably. I don't tend to interact with anyone that's takes football that seriously, fortunately.

 

[toythatkills]

As an Arsenal fan I put as many Tottenham players in as possible, either so it's slightly less disappointing when they do well, or so I can believe that I cursed them if they do badly.

Win win, really.

 

[Rug Monkey]

My team, will be full of regrets 3 weeks in

 

[CoolOff]

Not sure if it's been posted, but this is like the best thing ever:

Firminho on the bench seems like a lot of potential points lost against Arsenal's zero defenders.

Also, pro-tip: choose two goalkeepers from the same team. Basically guarantees that one of them will play in every gameweek, and is generally cheaper than two separate choices.

 

[sora87]

Woooo kicking off the new season on sky sports!.. with a trip to Hull :|

 

[Pachimari]

Are there any matches this weekend?

 

[Haribi]

Is it too late to join the GAF leagues?

 

[GoldenCrow]

This is what I went with. Taking a risk on a few players in FF terms but I think they will come good this year.

Gary in his underwear tonight, what a time to be alive!
