re: 2017-2018 TD Fantasy Premier League Thread

After one of the best debut seasons in recent memory (according to countless managers), Countless Managers FC attracted a lot of attention around the globe. Many foreign investors were interested in purchasing the club, and on July 1, the club got new owners.

Unlike many rivals, our club's money isn't coming from the Middle or Far East. Our club is now owned by hundreds of posters on an obscure internet message board that fantasizes about a shirtless Stuart Holden.

They have changed the club's name to reflect one of their shining moments and given us a new logo. I have the distinct honor of introducing Thanks For Playing FC.



With the ninth pick in the 2017-2018 TD Premier League Fantasy Draft, Thanks For Playing FC selects, Eden Hazard | Midfielder | Chelsea.

It was originally feared Hazard could miss the first month or two of the season as he recovers from a fractured ankle. However, he returned to training early, and it looks as if he might only miss a few matches. He should be back terrorizing defenses in no time. We're thrilled to have Eden extending his stay with us.

ETA: Arse with back-to-back picks to end Round 1 and start Round 2.
