Fans league Gameweek 2

1) what do you think this week’s opponents chances are of finishing above you in the league?
Chelsea - 50/50
City - No one will finish above Spurs

2) After the first weeks games, how do you feel about your result?
Chelsea - Expected
City Disappointed to lose an opening day derby

3) With Lewandowski set to join the league, who needs him the most, who needs him the least?
Lower teams Id say Watford to give them a fighting chance this season
Top half, Leicester or Newcastle

4) Is there a particular area of your side that you feel needs working on?
You always strive to be the best so of course both teams need to strengthen, no particular area for Chelsea, City on the wings

5) Is there any player not currently in the league, you’d like an auction for?
Niguez probably worth keeping an eye on

1. Nadz has a good chance as his inspirational quotes will have his troops fired up but think his focus on youth and tactical inflexibility (refusal to accept full backs are a thing) will cost him I reckon, hopefully starting this week.

2. I don’t know the result, however I am omnipotent and so will win regardless of the result.(While typing this has now been posted, and so we are happy with the win and this will not influence our comments on Lautaro later).

3. He’d improve every team really. But Chelsea very much the least given Haaland and Mbappe there - Fan needs a good dm instead.

4. I think Lewa would raise our attack a level in terms of a star name. Otherwise think defence and midfield are perfectly balanced.
But Lautaro is a big team player, has won the Italian league, and just been a key player in helping Argentina to win Copa, something Aguero, Higuain and Tevez couldn’t do even with arguably a better Messi.
There’s an argument he doesn’t score enough but if he takes penalty’s now he can add another 5 goals a season to his tab which would bring him in line with Lukaku.
Plus Osimhen scored 10 in 16 starts and if he can stay fit will be Drogba on steroids for us.

5. I’m struggling to think of any. Most seem to be in now - till next year

1) what do you think this week’s opponents chances are of finishing above you in the league?

City are a good side, still a work in progress but they have some top players. Think they probably need to settle on a formation and build from there as I wasn't a huge fan of their Tierney/Gosens combo last week. Based on current squads we should be finishing above them.

2) After the first weeks games, how do you feel about your result?

Great result against a strong Chelsea side. Obv home advantage played it's part so the real tests lie ahead in the away fixtures.

3) With Lewandowski set to join the league, who needs him the most, who needs him the least?

As I said in last weeks pressers I think Newcastle are a top CF away from being title contenders.

Based on their current CF's I'd say Leeds & Chelsea need him the least.

4) Is there a particular area of your side that you feel needs working on?

I'm happy with my side and in particular my strength in depth. In an ideal world I'd have a set in stone number 9 however I quite like the idea of filling the role by committee due to the flexibility it offers. It allows me to specifically adapt my personnel dependent on my opponent.

5) Is there any player not currently in the league, you’d like an auction for?

Think we might be in danger of exhausting auctions so no one that particular needs to come in. If it was choice of which player I'd most like to sign that isn't currently in the league it would be Kimmich. A pure worldy.

1) what do you think this week’s opponents chances are of finishing above you in the league?

Wolves - If leeds finish above us then it'll go down as one of the worst seasons in Sports gaming history

Liverpool - Brentford have the better squad and the welsh magician in charge, but if we're to avoid relegation we need to target those mid-table sides.. Brentford though I expect to be out of reach

2) After the first weeks games, how do you feel about your result?

Both expected losses, have no complaints with either

3) With Lewandowski set to join the league, who needs him the most, who needs him the least?
If Newcastle get him he's the missing piece in the jigsaw so I can see Fan going big just to stop it. in terms of the least, he'd walk into most squads but as most only play one up top he's a luxury many can't afford.

4) Is there a particular area of your side that you feel needs working on?
Wolves - Full back but I like mine
Liverpool - CM and FB

5) Is there any player not currently in the league, you’d like an auction for?

No comment, not whilst Fan holds the aces financially

1) what do you think this week’s opponents chances are of finishing above you in the league?

Didn't I already answer this last week? That's some lazy journalism right there.

2) After the first weeks games, how do you feel about your result?

Bitter.

3) With Lewandowski set to join the league, who needs him the most, who needs him the least?

I need him the least.

4) Is there a particular area of your side that you feel needs working on?

I think our physiotherapists let us down. Four injuries a week is not a good record.

5) Is there any player not currently in the league, you’d like an auction for?

Me. I'd snap me up for a cool mill.

1) what do you think this week’s opponents chances are of finishing above you in the league?
I don't think there's a chance in hell of me finishing above Leicester. Maybe if rof forgets to do tactics for about half of the season and gets default losses and even then he'll probably finish ahead of me

2) After the first weeks games, how do you feel about your result?
Happy with the win. We know we can beat any side at the fortress that is Old Trafford and that's where the majority of our points ​will be coming from this season.

3) With Lewandowski set to join the league, who needs him the most, who needs him the least?
​Lewandowski was the best striker in the world last season he'd improve every side on here. Has age going against him but I'm not an ageist so to all the people bidding for him in the auction don't let his age put you off.

4) Is there a particular area of your side that you feel needs working on?
As Sun Tzu once famously said "In war you must always look to improve your army. If you perceive there to be weakness in your ranks you must do what has to be done and dispose of the weaklings. All it takes is one small crack in the phalanx for the whole thing to crumble"

5) Is there any player not currently in the league, you’d like an auction for
Probably Rayan Cherki.
