baggers44 Wally This is a mixture of a few myths. It was Seth Johnson who was a midfielder aged about 19 who played for Derby and was regarded as promising. The myth is that he and his agent went to negotiate with Ridsdale and PR asked what sort of wages he was expecting and he said £10K p/w but Ridsdale said that’s where near enough and offers him £17K. They all deny that story now ……I mean PR was an idiot squared so it may have an element of truth to it
gcw Think we have overpaid a tad for Jota, but as mentioned he is only 23 so potentially his best years still to come.
Along_the_Wire [deleted] I’ve been in an auction league with three divisions since the early 90s (the classic game, 3 for goal, 2 for an assist and 3 for a clean sheet). I’ve got Calvert-Lewin and Ings up front and just brought in Kilch for a £100k closed bid on Thursday. Talk about living the dream.
[deleted] Nice work, I’m at the other end of the scale today, I fear a nil nil for at stamford bridge, and me being 100 points off the pace after only two games.
Along_the_Wire [deleted] in the Premier FL thing, I’m doing well too, but could do with my league differential Mané scoring and not Salah
SM001 [deleted] I’d be amazed if it’s 0-0. Goals galore. Plus the fact that I have a Chelsea and Liverpool defender in my FF team. Son has saved my gameweek.
[deleted] Hursty I know it’s out of context due to the sending off, but his passing stats / map are mental for those 45 mins. Be interesting to see if he can do similar against Arsenal if he gets on.
gcw Strange game that. Had a sneaky feeling Chelsea would do us but then I realised partway through that Lampard was their manager and Klopp seems to have worked him out straight away.
