    I took my first 4-point hit of the season at 11:29 this morning:

    Terry IN, Simpson OUT - Worked out well so far given Simpsons -1. I also transferred him out ahead of Ridgewell and S.Kelly so made the right choice it seems.

    A mediocre enough 31 points from 8 players so far, including the non-playing Kelly. Sess is 1st sub so hopefully Kelly misses the midweek game too.

    Captain VDV, Terry and Rooney to go in the first half of the DGW.

    Damn you Wigan for ruining my Captains choice,at least I had no Newcastle defenders but had Vorm in goal who also conceded 4 to the worst team in the league.:(

    Still have 8 to play so despite my stupid 12 point hit from not paying attention I hope to get some kind of decent score.

    Suarez never even crossed my mind because I figured he'd only be playing one game because of the FA Cup, and because, y'know... he's Suarez. But even if he doesn't play a 2nd game, he's earned his price-tag today indeed.

    Just checked one of my leagues,the guy behind me captained him:eek:

    How likely are Suarez and Gerrard to start v Fulham given the FA Cup final is a few days later? Will Skrtel start that game?

    had 2 ft and brough in jelly and pienaar for walc and rvp

    then i got in huth and vdv (capt) for sess and bae after he
    was ruled out for the season

    i cant help but feel vdv will have a good week
    regret changing to him from jelly at 11.29 this morn but
    im convinced he'll score and anything else a bonus

    as for next week
    have 7mil in the bank and am torn between bringing back
    rooney who i had decided on or van persie after seeing how
    bad norwich were earlier

    its a hard one to call
    id imagine they wouldnt take a chance on skrt so close to the cup final
    im thinking if they were going to play him then surely it was
    going to be today
    not sure what i want really
    tevez as first sub or skrt to play once
    prob the latter as pool could hold fulham for 90 imo

    I'd be very surprised if Suarez or Gerrard started. Kenny has almost given pu on the league at this stage. He knows he has to win the FA cup to keep everyone happy. Otherwise it has been a disaster of a season really.

    Up against Chelsea as well. I doubt any of the top players will be playing.

    Finishing behind everton wont go down well

    Delighted with Jelavic and Pienaar (took an 8 point hit)

    41 points with 6 to play, only down point is changing Jelavic to Cisse last minute, but sure Cisse still has the opp to score a goal or 2 :)

    Nice bump in the overall rankings, up to 334th overnight


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,844 ✭✭✭carlcon


    44 with 9 to play, and happily back into the overall top 100. 79th.

    While my aim is to just stay in the top 100 for the season, I've got my eye on a top 50 spot too. :D

    Well the good thing is that any points hits for this GW are now included in the scores so can forget about them now.

    Last minute switch of captaincy from Suarez to Cisse was a shocking error...


  • Registered Users Posts: 731 ✭✭✭seriousfizz


    Just glad this kind of GW has come at this point. I may have had a breakdown if this happened earlier on in the season.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,228 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Ended up taking an point hit with Aguero, Sessegnon and Turner out for Pineaar, Jelavic and Terry in. Decent return so far.

    41 with 10 to play. Rival captained Jelavic and I didn't (both of us have him) but at least I had Pineaar who scored 12.


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,508 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Terry, Mata, Lampard all start for Chelsea.

  • Registered Users Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭Jimmy Iovine


    Sturridge with a goal for Chelsea already.

    Thought SSN said Mata assisted Sturridge? Nothing on FPL yet...:confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,198 ✭✭✭POKERKING


    Mata assist surely??????


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,508 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Terry goal, definitely Mata assist for this one


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,568 ✭✭✭thewools


    grrrr i was 0.1 short for Terry!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,508 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Torres(Kalou)


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,841 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    damn it anyway
    i couldve got in terry but got in huth instead
    was worried about squad rotation


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    This could be a cricket score,so long as Boswinga gets in on the act & Lampard does nothing it'll be ok for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,955 ✭✭✭Degag


    Mata better get the assist for this one!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,198 ✭✭✭POKERKING


    Another assist for mata should have three,knowing my luck will only get one
