Teams just submitted their team sheets.. and Liverpool will smash these old farts in Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes. They belong in a retirement home. hope Suarez scores a brace on Evra to shut him up. Go Scousers!

TEAMS: MAN UTD: De Gea, Rafael, Ferdinand, Evans, Evra, Valencia, Scholes, Carrick, Giggs, Rooney, Welbeck... Subs: Amos, Berbatov, Park, Hernandez, Fabio, Cleverley, Pogba...

LIVERPOOL: Reina, Enrique, Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Spearing, Gerrard, Henderson, Downing, Kuyt, Suarez... Subs: Doni, Carragher, Bellamy, Carroll, Adam, Shelvey, Kelly.

You are currently losing $906. Negitive profit is 99% of the time not good. Unless you believe that you can make it to the ABBL next season, then here is my advice...

How much profit were you making during the relegation series with the centre who had a salary $170k higher than your opponents whole roster?

great post +1 ball 4 u

only problem i am too attached to my players

xie, rad, wang, willy & now zaki are on this team 4 life

thats too much salary to tank

also xie is 29 & i promised him a trip to the abbl while he is still top shelf

so no matter how many times we get kicked in the guts in he playoffs we will keep on coming back

maybe stupid or maybe as u said just 2 competitive

i tried tanking 4 about 3 weeks once & it drove me nuts

cant do it

but thanks for all the great tips

@ marmots & adam - wtf? upset of the round

Honestly, I actually forgot to set my lineup... :P So my training minutes are screwed, and I didn't TIE you like planned. I didn't think I had a hope in hell, so... yeah. Very lucky win for me.

Yeh, I figured you'd TIE or unlikely... CT.
I could've done one of about 3 things to make sure I won it, but took a chance which ya have to do a bit if you want to continue somewhat deep into the cup and still compete in the league.

Yeah, I meant to throw the first game, win the second against YPB (on the assumption he was tanking), and buy new players and make a run from then on. Didn't expect to win the first...

not sure why bellamy didn't start as he has been in great form lately. Adam over henderson any day, and gerrad to push more forward.

On the day, we were way to slow moving forward therefor not creating enough chances. Oh well, we still have a couple of cup matches to look forward to.

radford never put in the red for starters. i also only lost ended up losing around 200k in the end, all afteri bought the other players to help me survive (around 1.25m all up since buying radford), but let not get back into that pointless argument again. even though i accidently bought radford and could not sell him for 1k, i did what was necessary to stay in this div. $1 more or 170k more than my opp, t all means nothing if u wanna make sure your team benefits.

Anyway, the radford argument has no place in what i said as that was short term.. my may concern with fishy is that, with staff wages going up every week and players wages going up agin next season, he may need to try and counter that now. my advice may not be the best, but it definately is one way to go about it. as i also said, i dont know what his plan is, or what his financial situations is. So therefor i can only give advice on my past experience.
