A place to make your transfers known and any "analysis" you care to provide. I am a techno-dolt when it comes to statistically breaking down the draft such as you will find in VSR. If you have the desire and expertise you may have at it.
Note:
Make sure that when the transfers begin that you post first in the Sand League Forum on the FPL site. That is the official site used. This site is used for courtesy purposes. We will begin another thread once matches begin.

I have no idea what the first part of your message meant! Please give me some of this analysis!

Analysis...like when you say to somebody "What were you thinking taking Dempsey in the 6th round, or I'da never takin 4 injured players in my draft....stuff like that. You know, technical analysis.:p

Of course my no-name midfield might need a little help.:eek:

As to the real answer to your question, look at what Blech has done in the VSR Post draft thread.

We really need to figure out this Crazybox thing. I have a move I want/need to make due to injuries (that I didn't realize) and I can't.

Give him a day or so to check in. Again, I left him a PM explaining our problem. If we do not hear from him soon we will open the window for transfers. I'm doing a little homework now in case I need to make a move. There are a fair number of valuable players out there. You might want to get ready to pick up the likes of Benjani and Bellamy.;)

So how do you see your draft? The run on midfielders early took me out of my own midfield strategy and pushed me to strengthen my strikers. I wouldn't mind having a bigger threat in the middle though. My starting line-up as I see it today.

Reina

Brown-------Terry-------Toure

Pienaar------Nolan------Downing------Davies

Carew---------Rooney-------Van Persie


Subs: Gamst-Pederson-Baines-Figueroa-Green


Lots of home teamers for the first week. We'll see who sticks around after that!

It's all about priorities. This is at or near the top, isn't it? :)

And, seriously, if you kept a spread sheet as the draft goes along (which I did), you should be able to manipulate the numbers around in 15 minutes or less. Highlight and cut team rosters (5 seconds). Paste (5 seconds). Sort (1 minute). New formula (1 minute). Copy formula (50 seconds). Prepare chart (4 minutes). Cut and post (1 minute). Edit post to adjust columns (3 minutes). Have a drink (4 minutes).

Far more impressive to me are the posts that actually analyze the respective teams and look at a player by player basis as the strengths, risks, and weaknesses of each team. What say you about your own team??? Why are you going to win? What are you worried about? Or, if that divulges too much info, maybe identify the 2 or 3 teams you were most impressed by?

Carry on....

You're really working hard for archenemy aren't you? :D

I will forever now root for Shorey to break an ankle. I might even go to church on a Wednesday.

:D Only two hours...trouble with kids today...I've been at it for 24 hours, doing finger exercises until I developed a quick spasm twitch that had to only be timely placed...and before you ask my drug test just came out clean for finger performence enhancing supplements

Even the fact that you're Chelsea doesn't dispel the hate I have for you right now. (And glorydaze too for name dropping!)

I was going to dispute your getting him till I realized that Premierleague.com puts the person who was in first's post at the bottom. I really hate you. I am going to neg rep you as soon as it'll let me. (I think I recently pos repped you so it won't let me neg rep you now). I am also going to have a voodoo doll of Shorey made.

I was really tempted to drop Ronaldo and to see the hilarity that ensued.

Would someone really drop 2-3 quality players to fit him on their squad? I would then pick up those players. I am figuring at 14.0 he's going to lose value since he's going to be out a bit longer. However I just read a few articles that say early-mid September he'll be back so it's worth hanging onto him.
