I really dont see Allen starting this weekend.
Lucas is going to get you 2, max 3 points though. Why not get someone like Maloney (Wigan) or Noble (West Ham) who take the penalties? Or go up to 6.0 for De Guzman or 6.5 for Michu, both from Swansea, which has the easiest set of opening fixtures in the league?
I'm going to eat so much humble pie if Lucas happens to pop up with a goal this weekend lol

Well guys I'm off to Japan for a year to work with a game studio. I've asked to be banned for about 8 months because I will need to concentrate on the project at hand. I'll come back once I'm settled and work is manageable.
I hope you make the next Pro Evo better than ever. Good luck, mate.

I don't think he'll start, he'll get some time though.
I've dropped him for week one, but I definitely want him back in after that.
Good luck!
Gonna edit my FPL team when I'm home, gonna set myself the challenge of having one player from a team, so I need 5 teams to drop. I could make it really hard and drop the top 5.
Yeah I doubt you would drop to 8th but 7th could be possible.
Best of luck man! You can't expect yourself to work 24/7 for 8 months though, you need some off time.

Still room left for the paid league, only 4 days left for you fence-sitters to join 
I absolutely loved Family Guy 6 or so years ago, I'd watch like 2 episodes a day and had about 5 seasons on DVD. Then one day I just stopped finding it funny, and haven't watched a full episode since
Liverpool's summer business is very odd. If we can pull Sahin off (oo-er) and keep Skrtel&Agger we'll have done some absolutely brilliant business in the middle, as well as tying Suarez down and the hopefully astute purchase of Borini. But on the other hand, we've lost 3 of our former wingers, and only bought in one player to replace them. This will be solved if we can bring Dempsey in and fast-track Sterling, but that's still a risk
Out:
Aquilani
Adam
Bellamy
Maxi
Kuyt
In:
Borini
Dempsey
Allen
Sahin
Up:
Sterling
Suso?
Robinson
That looks good to me
Still not sure about Borini in the FPL. If things go according to plan, he could easily match Suarez's output, and he costs 1.5 less. But then I've got a feeling that Suarez is gonna have a great season

We need a CB more than a ST tbh.
Really doubtful that Cisse and Ba would be off to AfCON in January.
It's the only International sport England are dominant at I suppose?
Good luck! Can you say who you're going to work for?

When cricket's on a knife-edge, its really good. Unfortunately it either takes 3+ days to get to that point, or it never gets there in Test cricket
And 50over & 20/20 have too many of those moments for them to be special imo
Stimac hits out at Levy over Modric
Igor Stimac has criticised Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, accusing him of breaking promises to midfielder Luka Modric over a possible move to Real Madrid.

How come everyone is rating Newcastle to slip past 5th? Demba Ba's knee injury to return? Papiss Cisse to become disinterested?
There could be stronger competition this season. Emphasis on the could be.
Ba has a hurt shin supposedly already and Cisse had 14 appearances last season for Newcastle. Being consistently brilliant is tough, lets see if Cisse is up to it.

Thanks for the good luck guys.
Start up studio with some former workers from Grasshopper and Capcom.

I think this could be quite a big problem as well.

My only real worry is the lack of depth having a real toll on the squad with the added Europa games.
All the teams above them are stronger, stronger Liverpool, not enough squad depth for Europe. They'll comfortably finish in the top 10 but not sure where yet. I'm saying 8th.
A new start-up? Best of luck chap!
We're stronger this time too.
But I'm not fussed. The media and armchair experts love to underestimate us, which just means we have more crow to serve them at the end of the season.
Transfer window ain't over yet so still time to get stronger and stronger.
How? And as for your second comment: every single fan probably feels the same way about their own club.

wow
Another day gone and Jenas is still on the books. I'm starting to worry for Huddlestone, he didn't get off the bench against Valencia and there are mutterings that AVB doesn't fancy him. He's had horrible injury problems and deserves a chance to prove himself, he looked really good in pre-season.
Aquilani 2.0

I don't think it's out of the question that Newcastle slip slightly this year. A lot of pressure for them to maintain their form over the season, and teams more likely to park the bus against them now they know how good they are.
He's not exactly the archetypal AVB midfielder to be fair.

This time last year we didn't have Cisse, Amalfitano, Bigirimana and soon to sign Anita.
We didn't have Steven Taylor for half of the season (we were undefeated until he got injured against Chelsea). Sammy Ameobi and Sylvain Marveaux are finally available after injuries.
And still 2 weeks to go for hopefully more signings.
Keep underestimating! <3
edit: This time last year we also had a Ben Arfa who was struggling with fitness after breaking his leg. Now he's roaring to go from the get-go.
How are we NOT stronger?
You nearly had me.
