    47 without Rooney. Can't really complain.

    Many of my rivals score mid 30s and many took hits. I think I am way out in front for gw31 preparation. 2 FTs and 7 DGW right now.

    38 for me, Captain RVP worked a treat over Hazard :(

    Look it's over now and I'll reserve judgement until the rankings update. I'd be shocked if I lost ground, but this game has surprised me many a time :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,057 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    36 points from 6 players, not too bad.

    Average should be low enough I'd imagine

    Can't help but point out that all was going rather well for me till around when you went and bought Van Persie and I joined you on the Norwich defence!! Saw we shared a captain this morning and my heart sank just a wee bit. ;)

    37 from 9, very disappointed

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    38 from 10. I must have an awful team!

    It was a sign that you should've gotten rid :pac: My season is just laughable at this point. It feels like all my 50/50s are going against me. I had 2 this week. Go with Rooney or stick with RVP and then captain RVP or Hazard. I still think I can turn things around, the last 2 months of the season is normally where I do well.

    GW 38 is where it's at ;)

    43 pts from 10. Dissapointed I got all sensible as the week went on as my initial instinct was sturridge to rooney (C).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Quite surprised at how high some of the scores are this week. I though I'd make up a bit of ground in my private leagues with a score of 40 odd but it doesn't seem to have had the desired effect.

    28 (-4) from 6. Bad but a better score than expected.
    I will have 10 players that will play 2 games in GW31


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39 lostsoul21


    77( -12) for me. Rooney and J rod worked a treat up front along with Hazard and a few cleanies. Outscored main opponent by 50 points today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,588 ✭✭✭daithijjj


    70pts brings me up 2.4k places to global rank of 1,270. Ending the season in top 1k would be nice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,679 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    45 points from 8 players.
    3 defenders and all with a clean sheet:eek:

    Can't complain really, captain Hazard delivered.
    30k places up to 285k.


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,257 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS


    Down to 42k, only a 5k drop so not too bad considering my poor score.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Dropped another 1,300 to 17k.

    Sick of red arrows, 4 in a row in a week I was sure I'd make gains. Down from 6k in gw25.

    Need to break this run soon or my private league will be out of sight...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    My 36 sees me drop 9k to 215k. A GW rank of 975k gives me my first score within the top 1 million in 4 weeks, every cloud eh? :pac: :(

    This season has most certainly not rewarded deviating from the template in any way, shape or form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,250 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    49 sees me jump from 337 to 311, a gain of 26 places. In private leagues, I went a further point ahead in one and twenty ahead in another.

    The one disappointment is Vidic. Might just leave him sitting on my bench and stick to original plan. I didn't plan to play him next GW anyway.


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


    First chance I have had to check this since the end of the Chel/Spurs match. 46 from 8 has seen me rise about 40k places. In the top 450k now, hopefully another good GW or two will see me back in the top 400k.

    Happy enough with that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,231 ✭✭✭BNMC


    45 from 8 has seen me rise 20k to 185k. Hazard doing the business as captain. Happy enough after the disaster of the last 3 GWs.

    Hell for leather for a top 100k finish now.

    I fell a little further, but nothing too unexpected.

    God, I need a good week. XD


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    50 from 10 players. Banked my free transfer ahead of GW31. I would have gone for Rooney this week, but I want Sturridge, Aguero, and Suarez as my front 3 for GW31.

    I didn't see the sense in bringing in Rooney, and then swapping him for a different double GW player, as I wanted to squeeze in the maximum amount of doubles possible for 31.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    42 sees me drop 400 places to 16,400. I'd have took that before the gameweek. Now hoping for a good run to the finish and a top 10,000 finish.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    54 from 9. Happy with that! Has me up to 75k.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,915 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    nightmare gameweek for me united score 3 but nothin from janu mata. hve to hold onto them now just cos they DGW. chambers not playing was a sickener as everyone got saints clean sheet... only good thing was taking the captaincy from mata last minute to hazard


  • Posts: 17,735 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    44 from seven, delighted with that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,250 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Craig Noone was excellent yesterday. Unlucky not to get a second assist. He's well worth his budget price.

    Fires the ball into the box at every opportunity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,962 ✭✭✭Hogey007


    40 from 8, dropped a couple of points in money leagues but i'm hoping that by holding out for the dgw with benching players and keeping transfers i'll make up more points then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,084 ✭✭✭kevthegaff


    67 back upto top 7k wildcard now!!

    A decent 59 (-4) gives me a rise to 37k. Would really like to finish in the top 20k.
