AC Alittlesilhouetteofaman

My dad runs a family fantasy football league and last year, my team Obi-Wan Kenobi Nil did pretty poorly. I was let down by Sheva and neckless golfer Bellamy amongst others. But this year, with a new team name (5 easy White Spirit points for anyone that gets it), I once again have high hopes for my boys:

Team Name: AC Alittlesilhouetteofaman
Manager: 'Big' Chez Guevara

(Goa) Given...............Newcastle

(Def) Cole A..............Chelsea
(Def) Evra.................Man U
(Def) Khizanishvili.......Blackburn
(Def) Lee Young Pyo.....Tottenham

(Mid) Ronaldo.............Man U
(Mid) Bentley..............Blackburn
(Mid) Gerrard.............Liverpool

(Mid) Drogba..............Chelsea
(Mid) Tuncay..............Middlesborough
(Mid) Bent.................Tottenham


Fantasy Football victory, here we come!

AC Milan + line from "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen. Scaramouche! Scaramouche! Will you do the fandango?

Do I win?

That AC joke actually made me laugh out loud. Thankfully, I was at home and not in public, but my cat gave me a look of distaste.

Good name, Chez.

Your team will be let down by

1) Given, who will concede a sackload
2) Evra, who will hardly play (or is that the point?)
3) Drogba, who won't score as heavily as last season. I'd have gone for Benni McCarthy and spent some of the money on a better midfielder than Bentley (Malouda?)

BUT - Benty could be an inspired signing; he may be good for 25 goals.

Which FF site are you on?

I've got a feeling that Big Sam will revitalise the Toon. And you get extra points for man of the match - whichever way, I'm hoping that Given will get me some points. Although as soon as I'd lodged my team, he went and got injured... Typical start.

You don't think that Evra will play? United don't have anyone else at left-back and he was in the 2007 PFA team of the year. I think he'll do well.

I think Drogba will do well again. Last year he was simply unstoppable - and everyone knew what he was about. On his day, he's simply unstoppable.

My dad is doing it with the Sun Dream Team. If you want to be in the faaamily, I can probably get you in!
