anyone that would be interested in playing in a TTP group for Fantasy Football (Soccer) this August? I know Yahoo has Spain, Italy and England

Also hear good things about Starting11 for England, any sugestion on the league and site?

bumping this to see if can drum up some more interest. Its fun and even if you know little about the game or the players you can find plenty of advice just through Yahoo on who to pick for your team each week

If your ever played a salary cap style fantasy game, then the format should be familiar. Basically you have 11 spots on your team, you can set your team formation up to be 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 3-5-2 or 3-4-3. you have 100 dollars and every player has a price. You buy 11 players in the different positions (ie in a 3-4-3 you need 3 defenders, 4 midfielders, 3 strikers and a goalie) each week. Players values change but if you choose to sell them, it is at the same price you buy them for.

For example i picked up Arshavin at 7 dollars and by the end of the year he was up to 23, if i had dropped him a week before i would have gotten 7 dollars to spend but if i wanted to buy him next week i would have had to spend 23 dollars

Where are you guys; Xav, 60 minute, Axis, Salty, others i forgot?

Not into soccer but like fantasy sports? Then Join! even if you know nothing of the game, its easy enough to get into and yahoo provides plenty of info to help you fill out your team.

Besides who doesn't want a good friendly TTP competition. And 5 page threads about how real madrid sucks

bump up time, only two days left now before the start of the season, are you ready? Got your line-ups set?

I'm hoping i can roll through the first week and get some good points to start off the season. Will make up for the failure of a team i had in France last week. Playing another game as well on the official prem league site that i'm willing to give my line-up for that game (prices and rules are different over there so its utterly different then my yahoo one) if anyone is interested.

Roster set, let's rock and roll.

**Red_Lizard2** · 08-13-09, 01:20 PM

i think i'm finally done messing with my roster, after the numerous changes this week.

My team in the other game (limited number of subs is why, as you'll find out after this week, it is vastly different)

Starting 11
GK: Jaaskelainen
DEF: Cahill, Bassong, O'Shea, Hangeland
MID: Lampard, Ashley Young, Arshavin, Modric
ATT: Eduardo, Bent
SUBS: Hart, Geovanni, Ebanks-Blake, Bramble
