Leicester City back in the BIG time




Leicester City are back in the big time once again, after nearly a decade long being
in the lower tiers of the English League system.
We are going to take a look at a player that could be good for them in their fight to stay in the Premier League
next season. That player is:

Kasper Schmeichel:
Son of Manchester United legendary goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel and former Manchester City goalkeeper, Schmeichel is back
in the big-time after spending the last couple of years with Leicester City. Schmeichel will have to be on top form
this upcoming season in Leicester City's fight to stave off relegation and straight back down to the Championship for next season.

Them along with Qpr and Burnley will be three of the favourites for relegation, but with the right players brought into the 
Club they will have a good chance of staying up. Kasper Schmeichel will be on of the lynch-pins of Leicester City's squad and he will
be my second choice keeper for next season.

May Leicester City stay in the Premier League, they play a style of football that is suited to the Premier League.

So, how can you join our Fantasy Premier League Leagues.

 Well, let's just say that we are hopeful of having a Fantasy League, open to everyone. It will be a classic format. So, throughout the entire season you can join.

We are not going ahead with our earlier plan to have a Ultimate Fantasy League, as we have to pay and that's not happening.

We also hope to have a Fantasy Champions League, League on the go as well, for European players only.

Don't worry rest of the World, we haven't forgotten about you. We are doing a Fantasy World Cup as well for everyone to join.

Here's how you can pre-join our Leagues:

Who is Luc Castaignos



Swansea City have just gone and signed this guy, but who is he?

Answer:
He goes by the name of Luc Castaignos and is a Netherlands under - 17 International. He is the all-time top goal-scorer for the Dutch under - 17's which is fair going. Coming in with 13 goals.

Swansea City have agreed a £6.5m pound move for the young striker, bit of help for Michu. Bit, of funny-ish info of Luc, is that even though he plays for the Dutch Youth sides, his family roots are from the south of France, his mother is from the Cape Verde Islands and is the holder of an Italian passport.

Look, he has big boots to fill because some people in the soccer media industry have compared him to the Arsenal great Thierry Henry, now at New York Red Bulls.

So, I expect Castaignos to be a third choice striker for Swansea City with Wilifred Bony and Michu expected to start ahead of him. But, from a Fantasy Football point of view, Luc could end up being a differential throughout the season.

World Cup players



Basically, we are going to do a World Cup article, to go up on the 13th of this month that will take a look at 4 World Cup "stars" that you wouldn't necessarily think of:



For your World Cup Team on Fantasy XT:

1. Faryd Mondragon - Colombia




Along with Mario Yepes, Mondragon is the only surviving player of that great 1990's Colombia Team still playing with the current 2010's generation of Colombia. Not surprisingly, Mondragon will be the oldest keeper to play at this year's World Cup in Brazil.

Mondragon's and Colombia's last World Cup was France '98. Colombia featured in only the first round in a group that included England. Mondragon, made some fantastic saves and the great German Franz Beckenbauer said "Mondragon was the best player of the first round". There's praise.

This is because Faryd pulled off many great saves.

2. Aaron Hunt - Germany



Not one of the usual suspects, Aaron Hunt will be part of the Germany party in Brazil none the less. Not much can be said about Hunt only that he is eligible to play for Germany and England. But, sorry England, he's a German International.

Aaron Hunt really only came to prominence when in 2006, he was charged with making racist remarks when playing an under - 21 game against, who else: England.

3. Raheem Sterling - England



Anyone who watches the English Premier League like myself will know of Raheem Sterling. The Liverpool man will be making his World Cup debut this Summer in Brazil. I expect Roy Hodgson to play Sterling as much as he can because England could very well he going out of the World Cup at the group stages.

A Theo Walcott of the 2002 World Cup. Opposition teams will be dreading the thought of facing Sterling running at them for goals.

4. Javier Hernandez - Mexico



This is Hernandez' chance to put himself in the shop window. "I hear United fans saying wait, hold on there now" But, let's face it, van Gaal doesn't see Hernandez as part of his plans for next season. Inter Milan have been sniffing around and will be looking to do a deal for the Mexican.

So, this World Cup is pivotal for Chicharito to put himself in the shop window. His last World Cup was the 2006 Germany, which seen good performances and a move to Old Trafford.

Will Hernandez move, you bet your ass he'll move.
