    Glad to see such a good response, I think it will have to be a league format rather than cup, as transfers happen randomly and we couldnt plan for it.

    Guys, I'll post a selection of players, and we'll all predict the same ones, it wont work if everyone just picks their own.

    I'll post the players soon, and the rules/points/bonuses. I'll give until Saturday to predict, people can join late but may have missed a few transfers by that point.

    OK I've picked 18 players likely to move this summer, you must guess the club they will go to and the fee they will go for. If you think they will not move on then you just list their current club as your prediction.

    You get 5 points for guessing the correct club, and 1 point if it is in the right country (eg if you were to say Fabregas to Barca and he went to Madrid you'd get 1 point). You also get 5 points if your prediction for the fee is correct to within 10% of the real fee (if disclosed).

    There are also 3 bonuses, each give you 15 extra points if you get correct. They are, predict which player will go for the most money this summer (doesnt have to be one from the list), which club in the PL will buy the most players and the other is predict the destination of the 4 Spurs strikers (any and all look like leaving, thought it would be interesting).

    Here is the player/bonus list (copy and paste with your predictions) :

    Nasri
    Tevez
    Fabrega
    Drogba
    A. Young
    Ba (no fee prediction necessary)
    Parker
    Downing
    Bellamy
    Bothroyd (no fee prediction necessary)
    Adam
    Enrique
    N'Zogbia
    Given
    J. Cole

    and the Spurs4
    Pavlyuchenko
    Defoe
    Keane
    Crouch

    Also theres the
    Biggest fee bonus
    Most players bought bonus



    Try to predict by the 10th (this is so people who havent seen this but want to join in can play). If a player from the list moves somewhere before then, he'll be removed from the list. New members can join late, but cant predict on players if there have been significant developments. If you want to change a prediction, PM/tweet me rather than editing comments, to avoid looking like cheating. Predictions cant be changed if there have been significant developments on a player (eg a club bids for him).

    Any suggestions welcome, if not then start predicting! (I'll post mine as well.)
