Sorry if this has been asked earlier in the thread but just wondering something...how come Silva didn't take the City penalty today? Is Aguero first choice on them now or what? He's in my plans over the next few weeks and this would make him even more appealing.

Aguero is 1st choice penalty taker alright, Silva rarely takes penalties afaik.
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/premiership-set-piece-takers/ gives a list of them and order of preference. It's obviously not 100% accurate but handy when considering lesser players (e.g. it's why i chose brady as my budget midfielder at the start of the season and i'm happy that i did!)

Christ I taught you had 6 or 7 playing today, your not badly off with the players you have left.

True, 6 is still upsetting though!

Most of my eggs are in the Arsenal basket now.

I think a lot of people need a good show from arsenal tomorrow. I have Giroud and Ozil

Must be one of the worse average points hall on record,
So many players not performing. Almost looks like a case of those who captained sturidge done well and rest languishing way behind!
As a pool fan, have 3 arsenal players to play- think win or lose ill be a bit happy or a bit sad.....

Kos, Ramsey and Ozil here. The fingers, they are crossed.

That's more like it. If Ramsey keeps his streak up then you'd like to think I should question my stubbornness.

I got rid of kos last week, he let me down too many times.

I was going to get rid but then injuries occurred and now Hangeland (what was I thinking trusting Fulham?) has nudged his way to the front of the queue departing my squad. So he has a stay of execution with some decent fixtures.

MOD: No discussion relating to soccer

Sorry didn't realise Youtube clips of goals weren't allowed

FutureGuy

Oh for fcuks sale, 2 bonus gone from Lukaku...

Danger781

28 points from 5 isn't bad Better than my last two weeks anyway!

Still have Dawson, Koscielny, Michu, Erikson, Ozil, and Giroud to play

We are only half way through the game week. This is set to rise.
There at least a couple if nor more game weeks last year where the overall gameweek average was 20/21

roryc

25 with Terry, Fonte, Ozil and Michu/Morrison left. 0 BP's today.

Suarez going from 3 to 0 is a shambles.

Cypher_sounds

31 points with Ozil Giroud Ramsey Reid and Ivanovic to play, could be worse.

Just done a transfer, Adnan for Rose.

G1032

29 points with just Ozil and Michu left to play. I'm getting well sick of this game this year now.
Nastasic doesn't start. Hangeland goes off injured. Rooney gets booked and gets no goal or assist. I captain Suarez over Sturridge. I'm 730,000 place after finishing inside the top 3000 last year and top 15000 the previous year. Sick to the teeth of it this year now.
Rant over!!! Needed to get that off my chest.

What does everybody think about Giroud? Will he be consistent this season or is his good start just false hope?

His security of gametime and the amazing talent around him would suggest that he's likely to score a fair few goals almost despite himself on occasion, I'll not be looking to rid myself of him until Arsenal have a replacement.
It's getting very difficult to settle on three strikers though so I wouldn't rush him in when there are so many similar priced or cheaper options, he's currently 9.5m, a fair price I'd say but hardly a certain bargain.

roryc

I got rid of him for Lukaku. I don't think there's much between them and it's not like I needed the cash, just personal preference. I really rate Lukaku, and as Swiper says above Giroud will get goals simply because he is the main man up front and you have Ozil, Walcott etc feeding you balls. I'd fancy myself to get 10 goals in the season in his position!

I only have Ozil going into the Arsenal game today, could really do with quiet days from Ramsey and Giroud. I've been saying the same about Yaya since GW1 though and he doesn't seem to have slowed down.

Blatter

Lads what's the best way to get FPL's attention regarding a mistake?

Nani should have been credited with the assist for Januzaj's second goal but hasn't been given it yet. Since only .3% of people have him, I don't think there'll be much of a fuss kicked up either.

roryc

Are you sure he should have? He crossed the ball in and the defender headed it clear to Januzaj, who scored. I might be wrong but I think they changed the rule from last year, and the assister (Nani) needs to be in the opposition box for the assist to count.

If you fancy emailing them to clarify, can you also ask them to give Suarez back his bonus points, thanks

dahat

25 with 5 to play,3 mid's and 2 defenders,could be good could be rotten...

Actually sent an e-mail thanking the Premier League for docking Suarez those 3 bp's!

Well I know Ozil got an assist against Stoke for having a free kick saved and Ramsey putting in the rebound, so I'm fairly sure they didn't change the rules! Emailed them there anyway, thanks.
