@Indexical Oh my bad. I thought he was a forward for some reason... if him and gnabry are both MF then thats slightly less annoying lol

@TeamGB said in Jose Mourinho Confirmed As Spurs New Manager:

He said he wants to work with youth and is one of the most important things to him. Can see Parrott flying when he gets played soon.

The first teenager to score for Mourinho in the Premier League was Rashford. Mourinho doesn't work with youth.

I’ve been doing the same with a couple of my holds to be fair!

Nothing wrong with jumping on earlier than anyone else, patience is always rewarded in the end. When they’re jumping on in April, you’ll already be in there.

I can see the argument that they could make more money in that time in other investments, but for me personally, I like the low maintenance and playing the long term game with minimum effort is definitely my strategy! No shame 🤣

@TomIrving said in [Anyone see the

Maybe it's the introduction of media outlets from the other PB leagues (L'equipe or Bild etc), trying to keep value in players during the winter breaks etc??

This often gets mentioned but they would then need to translate every headline in order to award a score to it using the Nielsen scoring method

Not really. Same system picking names out surely. Mr Nielsen probably can come up with a algorithm for the French lingo too.

Castagne is a good youth hold and ticks all you boxes; and I agree with Skov nice returns for me already on him.

Others I’m looking at personally are the Gladbach players under 25 just not decided which ones yet.

@BradD He won top mid on a gold day in his last match for Monaco 10 days ago...

@ChazFI123 Ronaldo will never go back to Utd, or any probs team for that matter I reckon, and I don’t even want it to happen - massive ego, huge wages, likely a huge transfer fee, it’s not what we need in terms of what we are trying to achieve and build. If he comes back he will only taint his legacy to what he achieved at the club during his first spell. If he didn’t come back when Ferguson was still in charge of us he never will

If he didn’t come back to Utd while Jose was there, no chance of spurs getting him haha. People don’t know what they’re on about!

@NewUser731

i actually think you may be onto something with this one, not sure you'll find too mant better attacking prospects at that price gearing up to euros

These guys know how to milk a crowd

@Pagey74 Done exactly the same mate. Quite a few players down the lower end that I hold more shares in now. Longer game but much better strategy i.m.o. Most of my premium players sold or in queue.

Some relatively cheap gems out there potentially. Like you i wish i'd done it sooner but better late than never.

@Jamestodd9 he's scored 8 goals for Holland in the euro qualifiers!! I think he's hitting his peak this season

@StinkyT25 i agree it depends on which league he ends up in, if it happens to be the premier league there's still quite abit of growth in him, any other pb league he should still get a decent rise considering he'll most likely be at the euros next summer especially if he's in a more competitive league

@Luke indeed!

@Tom77 indeed and that's certainly where they play aswell imo.

The other thing i noticed as well was that with forwards is that teams that have fwds which are listed as fwds tend to predominately play 433, e.g. sterling, where as teams which have fwds which are listed as mids tend to play with a 4231.

Personally i think it is this that is holding back and positional changes for gnabry and coman add sancho to that list as well. 4231 is certainly how Bayern lined up at the start of the season, however they have utilized a 433 on a few occasions so they were kind of shifting between the two under the management of kovac.
However if the new guy comes in and predominantly plays 433, i would think that you would then have justification for opta to change the status of both coman and gnabry. Unfortunately bayern have been a bit of a mess this year, by their own high standards, so it would not be surprising if the next guy in was someone with a clear philosophy what ever that may be, which i think would help opta clear this sort of thing up.

the special case of bernado silva playing right/left wing in a 433 at city, i think is due to the fact that sane is out, so silva would only fill in there, and would probably go back to mid field to replace david silva next season, and he was never bought as a fwd either has always been an attacking mid, so i don't see any likely positional change there for the foreseable

Kante probably won't lose you money but there's little hope of him making you much either. A good player but not one who is rewarded on FI.

@Tom77 said in IPD player suggestions wanted:

Looks like Marco reus is back for friday, under a £1 still.

Somebody get in touch with zola quick

@TotalPunt I wasnt but probably wont be able to get it out of my head for the next week now, thanks for that

Wish theyd hurry up and bring in this long term pb score reward whatsit
