How's it biased, when all players earn points for goals/assists, clean sheets (lose points for goals conceded)?

If I don't hear the words "Berbatov" and "assist of the assist" in your reply I will be very disappointed.

My friend, I believe over the past year you may have possibly learnt from my teachings of the valuable role the assister of the assist plays.

I have seen many a poster on here claim that Modric is fantastic because he is the assister of the assist. This same rule applies to Berbatov This is why this type of player is so invaluable to every team. Everyone seems to want Modric. Everyone seems to want Berbatov. Their is a reason for this - they are genius footballers, and highly underated.

You got them in.

Thing is, if Modric is as you say "the assist of the assist" kind of player, he won't be earning many points. Berbatov would probably earn more, because he'll also get goals (he did last season at least). Problem with Berbatov, he's competing with Hernandez, Owen, Macheda, Welbeck and Diouf to start alongside Rooney.

Do you guys think this is a good team?

How the fuck did you get that team?

That team appears to be a wee bit expensive.

love how everyone will have Given, I think it's a great keeper to have.

I'll post mine in a minute.

I chose De Gea.

Watch him flop and Lindegaard be our number 1.

What. The

Maybe he's got really shit subs.

But even then, how the hell is that under 100?

I planned it well! The subs are pretty rubbish though. Ma-Kalambay GK, Fergurson CM (Newcastle), Tiote CM (Newcastle) and Luke Moore ST

Who's on your bench?

Ma-Kalambay GK, Fergurson CM (Newcastle), Tiote CM (Newcastle) and Luke Moore ST

My keeper is Reina.

Not a bad team, few injuries, suspensions and bad spells will cause you problems as you have a rather crap bench.

That is what the wildcard is for if needed

Changed my team a little bit:
I think thats a pretty good team.

Holy shit, that new guy's team actually comes to 100.

Fucked if players get injured, your bench is shite.

5 defenders is shit.

I'd play Tiote instead of Walker tbh.

Well Tiote isn't that bad he probably is a starter for Newcastle. Moore should get some game time for Swansea now Borini isnt there... etc.

It brings a tear to my eye

Defenders get far more points for clean sheets and scoring goals, assists etc then the midfield but I think having Wilshere, VdV and Bale is enough no?

If you had some good wingers in who gets assist, that would probably earn more points for clean sheets.

It might win you more points, I'm not really sure, but it looks shit so I'd never have mine like that.

What is your team kyro?

Danny I would have more wingers but I picked ones that I was 99% sure would start most games as with Liverpools and Man Utds option you cannot be sure who is going to start also with Chelsea and Man City who are yet to buy in this window.

I chose Albrighton, Gutierrez and N'Zogbia, they're pretty certain to start.
