From FPL website:


Should get our BP's late tonight then like any weeknight right? No sign of them yet....

RVP gets 3. Walcott 2. None for Puncheon.

double GG

RVP-3
Benteke-2
Evra-1
O'Brien-3

Now come on Rodgers don't play Sterling tomorrow, or Benitez don't play Apilicueta, Torres or Mata, so O'Brien can come in for those 15 points!

Bonus points are up.

walcott got 2. that's something. zaba got the 3. beautiful. although having seen united's 3rd goal i expect the assist to be removed from vp, there was a definite touch outside the box from a Wigan player from his free kick. as per the rules, of course

El Horseboxo

78 with Fellaini, Mata and Suarez to play and Begovic to come in with 2.

62 has been my lowest score in the past 4 weeks. More green arrows surely.

Don't have Puncheon but have the other 2 and Evra got one also. Broke 1,150 now with 3 to play. Bad week but could be worse considering I didn't captain RVP and only have 9 players scoring points this week.

Wildcard badly needed!

that's some score. well done.

Jimmy Iovine

77 points. Quite delightful. My Gibbs transfer didn't work out but ya'll have that.

RVP is incredible. If anyone can do well without him then they deserve to be applauded.

i have to say, if anyone doesn't have him, they should just bite their tongue and pay the 14m for him in the wildcard. well worth it. he's 1st today was just superb

Was clearly not a shot

1. It was a cross. 2. If the defender didn't touch it, Koscielny would most likely have scored. 3. Had Koscielny also missed it, the keeper collects it easily.

Under no circumstances would it make sense to award the goal to Walcott.

So what happens when players score from crosses they they clearly never meant as a shot on target? Where in the rules does it say the player has to intentionally mean to score in order to to be awarded points for scoring a goal?

manual_man

as per Arsenal's goal, i don't think it will be given to Walcott, but the way they award own goals or not isn't clear at the best of times, hence some confusion. i think his free kick will be considered a cross, and not a shot, and as such will be just assist. happy with the 2bp he got nevertheless, moves me to 75 for the week with Mata and Sterling to go, Chico and Zabaleta bringing me in 15 each was lovely

OctavarIan

If Walcott gets awarded a goal for that then FPL will have to go back a few weeks and give Johnny Evans' own goal as a goal to Danny Simpson. I doubt they'll do that.

56 points so far, happy enough with that. Mata and Ba to go. And Clark to come in with another epic 0 points from the bench.

FutureGuy

The bonus points have been kind. 2 for Walcott and Berbatov and 3 for Zabaletta and RVP.

70 with 3 left.

Jax Teller

69 with Cuellar & Mata to play . Decent week

Copper_pipe

66 after bonus points with, Mata, Cuellar, Ashley cole and coloccini

Oregano_State

After a horrible 43 at the weekend, I'm now on 65 after BP with Mata and Torres to play. I took a 4 point hit to get Walcott and Lambert in for Tevez and Nolan. Evra is proving a really good call by me back in GW 15.

darego

50 after bonus with torres, mata and cuellar to play tomorrow. better than last week anyway.. afraid of suarez hitting big tomorrow

What happens in that case is that the crosser gets the goal, assuming the ball goes from his foot to the net, with no interaction in between. In this case, Walcott did not put the ball directly into the goal.

It is a grey area, but I think in the vast amount of cases, common sense can dictate where the points should go.

Bigtoe107

81 with Cuellar, Mata and Luiz still to play. I needed a good week after the disaster that was last week

brian plank

66 with cuellar, mata, sterling and suarez to play. hoping for 0-0 after 61 minutes, cuellar to be taken off before suarez scores a hat trick, all assisted by sterling.

kacaniklic is my third sub

Jimmy Iovine

I'm posting this here for posterity. It's my highest ever ranking. I know Chelsea and Suarez are gonna combine to knock me way back tomorrow so I want to get this in while I can.

More points if Sterling gets the hat trick assisted by Suarez!!!!

Cantona's Collars

52 so far with Torres & Cuellar to play,was happy that the guy 18 points ahead of me only scored 11 but when I checked his team,he has 30 points coming off the bench with captain Suarez,Skrtel,Cole & Pienaar still to play.He has managed to fluke high scores lately despite having not touched his team in ages,he doesn't even have a 'keeper this week.

I was well happy with 54 points until I came on here and saw what all you got. Can't believe some of the scores.
I have Sterling, Suarez, Ba, Mata and Cuellar left to play.

Necronomicon

Just watching MOTD, Michu was so unlucky not to score today. The second time he hit the post was a sexual piece of individual skill.

Edit: Go to 1.15 in this video:

705 in the world and I can actually enjoy Suarez and Mata play!

alchemist33

I went up in the overall rankings but down in the Boards leagues, which is what you expect when Boards is the 5th best league in the world (the equivalent of the French league!). Successful b@stards, the lot of ye

El Horseboxo

381 in the world with a few left to play tomorrow. Think that's my highest ever ranking.

Meh, I find I never post a sh*t score, most people seem to only post their scores when they have a good week!

54 is very good, way above average, and you still have 5 to play!

I got 59 (64 once puncheon comes in), but only have 2 to play.
