Love it.....wagered a tenner on Bale first goal,can see a high scoring draw here...
FF wise,need Bale to get among the goals..

manual_man

bale and mata in this one. fancy both to get among the points. bae last sub

carlcon

Bale -v- Bosingwa. I'm expecting at least 7 assists.

dahat

Realised there i started BAE in my Boards team so no goals from Chelsea please!!

Should be a decent sort of game to start the GW.

I may point out for Bosingwa owners, that he won't be credited for assisting Bale

carlcon

Not looking great for those with a couple of Spurs players in this one. Bale needs to get more involved this half.

FFS Bale hit the bar.

Jax Teller

Bale off the crossbar

Juxtapose

Could have really done with that Bale goal.

any spurs goal would suit actually, can see cahill getting bonus points out of this and 2nd in my league has him!

carlcon

At this rate, I'll settle for the BAE clean sheet. A lot of people will have dropped him for this game.

Same here,can see Bale getting some BP's as well..

well that was unlucky!

Juxtapose

Any guess on bonus points?

id go Cahill 3, Walker 2, Cech 1

Cahill made some great last ditch tackles, Walker was solid for spurs and Cech made some important saves..

Maybe Bale too, he was unlucky today.

carlcon

I guess 9 points from 2 players isn't terrible. Have to feel a little disappointed with Bale not getting anything. Nice free there at the end might have given something too.

I guess the BPs are up for grabs after a 0-0. It's anyone's guess now. My money is on Modric & Bale picking up a few for the 2nd half.

KevIRL

Koscielny injured during warm up and will not start. Replaced by Djourou. Considered getting him this week as I wanted Arsenal defensive cover and Vermalen was too pricey, couldnt afford Kos by 0.1m

.

BAE got a yellow, so just the 8 I'm afraid.

kennyb3

Swansea team above wrongly lists dyer and not sinclair for anyone who is worried

G.K.

Thanks for pointing that out - I was absent-mindingly thinking 'not Dyer' and typed Dyer...

I take it back. That 1 point has made my week obsolete.

1 BP please!

unkymo

Forgot to sub Friedel in this morning. D'oh!

C'mon John Ruddy, Clean sheet number 3 for the seson please.

carlcon

Gibbs goal! Who has him? :pac:

Gervinho assist.

mailburner

took a gamble and captained sess this week
i dont see rvp scoring more than 6 this weekend

rooney on the other hand im more worried about
it could be great if it works out

Maggie McGaggie

McClean needs to do something today. A run of disappointing performances may lead me to bench him in future. Surman not playing is a boner, prob will come on for 5 minutes.

carlcon

My new boy Walcott scores!

Song assist.

Although with 2 goals from Arsenal already, I'm a little worried to see nothing from RVP just yet. Fingers crossed for a complete hammering now, with Robin getting something.

--

Also 1-1 in the Norwich-Wolves game. Holt just scored for Norwich. Jarvis for Wolves.

Jax Teller

Who got that assist for theo ?

Jimmy Iovine

Song

Blatter

Peno for Wigan.

Jimmy Iovine

Norwich Wolves is 1-1

Holt and Jarvis

carlcon

Peno scored. Enrique/Skrtel clean sheet gone.

Maggie McGaggie

Crikey, that's song's ninth assist of the season. Would never have thought he would be so involved high up the pitch.

Jax Teller

That's Great wigan goal seen a good few people had doubled up with 2 Liverpool defenders .

Jimmy Iovine

Maloney scored for Wigan. LPool CS gone

carlcon

2 goals for Wheater, by the way. Although I doubt that has much effect on any of us.

Maggie McGaggie

RVP holding groin. Could go off injured.

Looks ok now

carlcon

McClean assist.

omniscient_toad

Not VP's day, with the whole goal at his mercy he manages to find Warnock's noggin

Maggie McGaggie

Bendtner goal
McClean assist

Ryo assist for one of them though, which is nice

carlcon

Holt just scored a penalty. 2 goals for him already.

omniscient_toad

The correct tactic seems to be bringing in whoever happens to be facing Wolves on any given week

I agree but am tempted to avoid Norwich players in future. Lambert is the new Tinkerman of the PL. Am gutted that Surman is not playing today.

I posted earlier that McClean needs to do something to stay in my squad and he duly delivered.

Suarez needs to produce something to stay in my squad.
Oh Cheeky!

Those who captained RVP are currently sh1tting themselves.............

Incredible that Rangers wanted to take him on loan. He is joint seventh top scorer in PL, amazing when one considers that he has been a sub for a fair number of games.

mailburner

switched reina to mignolet as i didnt want to double up with pool
that one thing ive got right so far

KevIRL

Suarez, Gerrard assist
