Inter win 8-1 against one of the best managed teams in Italy to start the season and I believe Boca are one of the most successful teams ever. How can I let one of them go?

I know and understand, it would be pretty amazing to have u over, 2 to go down would be unbearable

Not for you it wouldn't!!!

Champions and opening day 5-1 win?

Delighted of course, be lying if if I said different but it's painfully early yet.

It's all about when my mid season slump kicks in lol

Delighted with a point for Watford away at Brum, wasn't expecting anything really!

Was hoping to have a real good go at serie a this year with a very settled side, with lots of Italians, that was really performing well at the back end of last season- well that's over after one game! Doesn't come much tougher than inter away, thought we'd at least compete but 8-1, very disappointed, wasn't expecting that! Congratulations Rob, great result, no catching u now already.

Still early days Ja, although u may want to avoid letting it get down to goal difference come end if the season.

Was a good point for Watford, brum were a real force, especially at their place back end if last season. 

Beat both me and Tom without getting out of second gear, got to be happy with that.

Very pleased with the Watford point.

Rob's side are awesome, he rarely drops points so to be one game in and a goal difference 14 worse, no chance now!

Cracking start for Fulham, great result against the champions of Europe!

very surprised and intregued to see why it either worked so well for me or so badly for phil.

Was it line ups, was it tactics?someone get sent off ? Injured?

I'm hoping it's maybe the likes of Carroll, sandro, walker and Mario have been there for over a year now and have had time to iron out any differences, agreed on who has which changing room locker and who has to team up with lee cattermole in training.

Little things that I'm hoping begin to show.

Or maybe as Paul said phil had one eye on the world club cup

I daren't get my fixture list out of the drawer in the office.

Fancy a trip away to the European Champions who are looking for a performance after this weeks defeats Rich?

Hard to judge early on with different teams having players at different skill levels. One thing I have found this year is that finally have a settled squad and team - might have made the difference against Tom, although I can imagine the game was very even...

No I'm alright thanks Tom, I'll not bother. Phil could probably use a week off anyway. My last trip to the emirates ended in embarrassment, so...well... I have nothing better to offer. If I could only remember what I did last time!

I have to apologise to somebody, I have lost my notes from the end of last season, and somebody asked me to include their schoolboy team in this season's schoolboy league and I can't find my notes and I can't remember who it was, and nobody reminded me on their order sheets this week.

So apologies to whomever it was, but if you let me know next week I'll slide you into the league for the remaining 21 games.

okay, email turns all sent out now. printing in progress.

Thanks

Paul, it was Ancona's school boy team, that'd be great if you can include them thanks

I still have last season's international teams too.

Hi Paul, I have this season's but Aguero is now no longer in the squad, despite me not dropping him - can I call him up and play him in the first Int match in the same week? If not could he be please be added back into the squad?

Wow, how's your luck?

Tevez lasted 5 minutes of the new season before getting injured.  Who came on as TM you say?
Only Darren Bent.

Amazed it wasn't a cricket score.

Lol may have been a very different proposition tbh. Haven't had much chance to digest yet though...

I see your 'group of death' and raise it to :

Charlton
Inter
Barcelona
Bayern.

Gulp.

Familiar foes in the Europa  :

Feyenoord and Lille.  Should be an interesting year again.

dont forget guys any sort of training only takes effect if the player plays that week, if you leave him out of all your teams, then no training takes effect.
