Gaming The SM RedCafe League

This will be my formation then, hopefully Geis, Fabinho and Wendell goes up 1 so I get a bit more cover. I'm pretty relieved I got Xhaka in otherwise i'd be struggling a bit!

Cant you still play a 3-5-2?

--Marquinhos-N'kolou-Laporte
-----------Matuidi-------
-Schurrle-Firmino-Xhaka-Jovetic
------Neymar-Lewa

All our in their natural positions.

Nope. the midfield 4 is along line 6 and therefore require DM's or M's. Schurrle and Jovetic are AMs and can only be played on line 7 & 8.

So to make this clear... (using your players).

Line 9 = Ibra, Higuain, Gomez, Costa, Calhan, Kane, Anderson
Line 8 = Ibra, Higuain, Gomez, James, Thiago, Naing, Costa, Calhan, Kane, Anderson
Line 7 = Ibra, James, Thiago, Naing, Costa, Calhan, Kane, Anderson
Line 6 = Hummels, James, Thiago, Naing, Rafael, Wanyama, Sciglio, Ginter, Imula
Line 5 = Same as Line 6 (so stupid)

However, the only wingers you have who can play on lines 6 & 5 are - Rafael, Sciglio

Bench:- Kane, Anderson, Calhanoglu, Ginter, Wanyama, Imbula and Tolisso.

Will be okay once ginter, sciglio and wanyama hit 90.
 
Think I will be ok. I've already changed formation and all players will be suitable for their position. Problem will be injuries, hopefully Mustafi gets a rise soon, and that wI'll give me decent defensive cover and CM as I can move Javi up and Strootman as an option too. My only weakness will be Berardi and Belerabi possibly starting if I get a few forward injuries.

I spoke too early here!

All unmanaged clubs have 3 players on loan. Now we wait for recalls..
 
He's never got below a 7.00 average rating in a season but he's only ever scored double digits once in a season, when he played for United in season 3. He's done well for Chelsea in terms of assists in recent seasons (double digits two out of the last three seasons) but they've still struggled in the league.

My aim will be to get him back to double digits in terms of scoring. Won't be easy but managed to do it twice with Nasri so...

Özil ended his first season back home with 11 goals and 13 assists in 28 appearances - with an average rating of 7.79

Incredible.

The following players are available on loan to anybody interested:
Nabil Bentaleb (20/87) - started on loan at City last season
Eric Dier (21/86) - guaranteed to rise at some point
Ricardo Horta (21/85) - goofy face
Mouez Hassen (20/84) - guaranteed to rise at some point
Richairo Zivkovic (19/83) - guaranteed to rise at some point
Adama Traoré (19/83) - scored 14 goals and had 19 assists last season so loan him while you can
Georges-Kevin N'Koudou (20/83) - guaranteed to rise at some point
Paul Nardi (21/83) - has hair
Charly Musonda (19/76) - doesn't have a stupid name
Yoann Cardinale (21/75) - shortest keeper in the universe
 
Where have the Higuita's, Campos', Chilavert's, Butt's (hoho) gone :(
 
Navas is a somewhat spectacular keeper isn't he? Maybe i should watch Real more.
 
Sigh. I curse yee Jose, CURSE YEE!

Hoping for more dropped points but without Benteke Liverpool might struggle to score. They need Firmino to step up and be a goal threat today, will be interesting to see how he does up top.
