Jaysus, 95k. I'll take that!

Chimera88

16 points from 4 players I'll take given I hadn't pressed save on my team the other day and didn't realise until it was too late today. I've now got a team that's entirely autofill and selected at random...definitely a SLIGHT handicap.

The site is painfully slow updating, I hope that's not going to be the norm this season.

I love looking at how ridiculously lucky the top ranking players in a gw are. I just saw no 5 overall triple captained mahrez. I don't understand why they thought it was somehow a good idea. I'd love to hear their reasoning as to why they triple captained mahrez

Every week top ranked teams (weekly, not overall) are strange teams with unusual choices.

Get used to it. Some players want to see their team on top and being clicked by thousand jealous players like us:D

Most of them end up at the end of overall ranking - 2-3m.

A quick look through the previous OR of the top 5 or so and not a single under 1000000. Still wonder what possesses someone to make a call like that.

Mr. Guappa

32 points from 8. All 1's and 2's apart from Rooney and that little ripper Mahrez.

Walcott, Mané and Benteke to go.

FHFC

34 with 3 to play including Aguero.

Rank 29k.

Shoulda captained Mahrez!!

Not gonna get too carried away, lots of highly owned players to come this week.

Palace throwing away a clean sheet a bit annoying. Mirallas fail. Also a pity Wayne couldn't of knocked the damn thing in himself.

MOTD went downhill after the first match!

For that one week of glory that they can always talk about!

AidySevenfold

17 points from 5 incl Rooney as captain.

Coates to come in with -1 for Mings so it's 16 from 6.

Benteke, Pelle, Sterling, Cazorla, Bellerin all to play Sunday/Monday.

Still hopeful of turning the week around a little bit anyways!

CSF

27 with Benteke, Bellerin, Payet and Sterling to play. Seems ok in a generally low scoring week.

Matt Targett better get his ass on the pitch or I'm in the same boat!

I'll take a 1 minute sub appearance at this stage!

jamesbere

Friend of mine has aguero on the bench, I'd say he's hoping he doesn't play.

Rikand

i said anything inside a million would be good week 1.

800k so far

Belter!

sneachtafear

Pity it's not a high scoring week. Hate when people only join in week 2 and are ahead of me!!

So my 2 million rank is not good then?!

Ugh, awful start for me:10 points so far.

gaving

17 from 4 with a captain hazard fail,low scoring week so far so nothing to get worried about! Last season was out of the ordinary for me finished just outside the top 1000 anything close this season and I'll be very happy

Beanmachine

35 with 6 to play. I left 8 points on the bench(Richards) though.

37k overall

Black Menorca

6 points from from a Saturday.

Palace lucky the second wasn't allowed! McCarthy very poor for Redmond's goal. I don't think he'll be dislodging Speroni.

keano25

Terrible day for me aswell. 20 points from 6 players. Hazard as captain and Courtois in goal. Sigh.

Hopefully Ox Chamberlain will get a hat trick today. Lol.

Ouch. Any chance he'll come on?

None really. Need Sterling or Payet to not start today.

Passin thru

26 from 5
Benteke,Giroud,Ozil,Bellerin,Stirling and Gomez to play.
Probably no goalkeeper next week though, what are the chances Hennessy will displace McCarthy?

24 Hours From Tulsa

28 from 6

Mertesacker, Taylor, Walcott, Henderson and Benteke to go

2nd Row Donkey

Any idea why Mings didn't play. He was a popular choice. I thought he was a reliable starter.

Same situation. Considering Courtois to Mignolet.

Chesty08

A GW rank of 2.6 million and captain played already!

Jaysus surely it can only get better.

Ulloa was taking them last year but wasn't playing.
