    Last weekend madness. Have taken a four point hit to make 3 transfers, get rid of two out of three injuried players, have 3 City players, and bring in Cisse for Newcastle.

    :D

    Must get back into the Boards top 700.

    Oh, and Yaya Toure as Captain.

    COM ON CITY!!!

    Torres as captain. I can see Chelsea stuffing Blackburn. 2000 points is my target. I'd need an epic week scoring-points wise to reach that target (80 points or so). 4 players in. Feck it. He who dares :pac: I have a feeling Bogdan will have a monster score this week :pac:

    *yawn* So lads (and lad-ettes), are we ready?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,998 ✭✭✭grohlisagod


    Gone balls to the wall with Rooney-Aguero-RVP up top and Maloney and Hoolahan in the middle.

    This is me right now.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,416 ✭✭✭Jimmy Iovine


    Bale at left back. Could play havoc with his scores.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,942 ✭✭✭AdpRo


    40 points behind in money league so Lampard as captain and 4 point hit to get Bale in for Dempsey and now he's left back............fail...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Evans the f-er. Wasted my transfer getting W.Gallas in. Had to do it as i had 3 red flag defenders.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,055 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    Johnny Evans starting is good news! Even though everyone has him a few in my league had him on the bench.

    That's the second time in a row Yossi has scored in the first 5 minutes. And I get why you said Yossi now but I thought it read "Ade goal, Yossi assist".
