If you'd like to, you can. I guess I can try to keep up with the smaller squads that aren't being represented.

I'll obviously be taking Liverpool but I'd be glad to take Norwich as well. They are up 3-0 at Sunderland at the moment. That's going to be 3 precious points in the struggle to stay up. I'd love to be at the Wig and Pen right now!
Make that 3-1 in the 88th.
3-1 final
Leicester City defeated West Ham 2-1 today. Feels good, man. Feels good.
I know a bunch of teams still have to play this weekend, but I love seeing the Foxes on top

I'm really looking forward to Arsenal's match and the Man City-Chelsea match tomorrow. Already got my DVR set so I can watch them tomorrow afternoon. Guess I'll have to start following Liverpool now too.
Speaking of which, Liverpooldawg, what's the plan for Balotelli this season? When he's not being an idiot, he's a hell of a talented striker and really fun to watch. But I noticed Liverpool signed a big striker during the current transfer window, meaning they now have 3 for 2 spots. Lots of speculation Balotelli is on the outs.
If Liverpool can get anyone to match his wage demands he is GONE. I agree with everything you said about his talent but he is the definition of a 16 million pound body and a tu'pence head. The latest speculation is that Liverpool may be willing to pay 25% to 30% of his wages just to get rid of him. I was fine with when we signed him. 16 million pounds for a striker of his obvious talent was a decent gamble but it is now an obviously lost gamble. Him being at Liverpool is also the perfect example of the "transfer committee" approach not working. The word is that he was signed despite Rodgers not wanting him. I would have still taken the chance. In today's market 16 million quid for him is a risk worth taking. To bad it didn't work out. Someday maybe the light will go on for him, maybe he and Liverpool will accept Sampdoria's (or whoever the current low ball offer is) offer and it will be there. When or if it does somebody is going to get a hell of a striker at a bargain price. I just wish it had been on Red Merseyside.
Been on vacation so I didn't see this. I would like a redraft if it hasn't happened. I had burnley. Either way tho I I'll watch most every game. Soccer fever for the past 5 or so years for me is real. It's quickly surpassed all sports for me and Real has quickly passed all teams besides state in me. Also, I loved seeing Jose fall on his face today after this week's bullshit. Arrogant ****.
ETA my prediction. City, Arsenal, chelsea, United in that order. Chelsea hasn't gotten any better (and truthfully I think is worse) while Arsenal and City both added to their squad strength (especially if Arsenal gets a striker and City get De Bruyne). United sneaks in by default.
Relegation- Sunderland, Villa, Bournemouth.
Interesting relegation picks, but I like it. Not the safe picks projecting the newcomers to go down. It would be cool if Norwich could stay up. I'm hoping Hull will bounce right back up from the Championship this season. But apparently our keeper, McGregor cost us two points earlier today. Fumbled a ball that Wolverhampton put in for the equalizer. If Steve Bruce doesn't wake up and upgrade our keeper, it's going to be really hard to be a consistent team. A shitty keeper can ruin a team faster than any position on the field.
I think Hull goes back up.
I picked those relegation three bc obviously I think that's what will happen, but also bc 1- picking the three that came up to go back down is too easy lol, and 2- I'm seriously drinking the Watford KoolAid after seeing them play. Love their style, at least in the opener
