    I switched williams to daniels at 1843. I presume you benched him.


    Yup. Was going to break even until that stupid WBA injury time goal.

    51 with Barkley and Lukaku to go. Badly need Barkley to justify me bringing him in for Alli 2 weeks ago :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,303 ✭✭✭Mike Ehrmantraut


    57pts with just Lukaku to go. Daniels and Simpson sitting on the bench. My decisions on defenders have really cost me this season

    Regarding Daniels, the reason a lot of people brought him in was cause he is on penalties, surely that means you nearly always have to play him?

    At least it's my reasoning to have him always starting, otherwise might as well have cheaper bournemouth defender sitting on the bench.

    Good man Mahrez. Another hot one? Don't mind if I do....

    Pretty terrible 45 for the night, has me dropping to 381k and I'm sure will do some damage in my main league which I was after making some ground in! Benching Mahrez over Firmino was a mistake but oh well! Lukaku & Ighalo left to go.

    Don't have Daniels but I would only use attacking potential to settle a close call. I would have played people like Bellerin, Toby, WBA defender over him


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,439 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    Still not convinced with Mahrez, only for an amazing finish by Vardy he would have blanked. Would get rid but have higher priorities.

    Came down to him or Ward, only thing that swung for me was that Ward had the home game.

    Giroud should have a goal and and an assist at least, if not more. Very annoying


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 689 ✭✭✭Torricelli


    58(-4), that hit was to get Sanchez in for KDB, worked out well. :rolleyes: That Kun yellow hurt badly.

    Courtois and Lukaku to play.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,711 ✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    65 after baps with 3 to go - Lukaku, Barkley and Nyom to go.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Alli (c)!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    60 with Lukaku to go.
    Vardy kept pace with Kane thankfully.

    I'm not usually a fan of changing your FPL team name mid season but I've just thought of what i feel may be a cracker......

    "When Harry met Alli"

    It shall be done...... :D

    Training day in work tomorrow. Another wee hot whisky. Oh yes....

    The whole watching MOTD went out the window when I heard the scores on the radio :pac:

    56 with Big Rom to go. Seems like a decent night with a few what ifs with Aguero, Alli and Payet!

    Silva matching Sanchez is grand too.

    Can't disagree with either of you on those calls. I'm playing Ward and Hennessey 'though it's a much easier call for me as you can see from my previous post. Hope you give her a good spanking this GW!
    She beat me and increases the gap with me :p. She had 5 CS out of her 6 playing def/GK with 2 on the bench (Huth on the bench the most annoying one).


    My Palace double up backfired big time and may give me a red arrow. 2 pts while Simpson is laughing with 6 on the bench.

    Also got Boruc as my second keeper. Hesitated a long time with Forster but figured I'd better get a Saints def since Forster rarely makes saves (2 saves in his last 3 games which matched fairy well what he did all year last season - it was everything or nothing with him). Just forgot an old theory of mine about GKs: when in big doubt get the GK who faces Arsenal, the best team in the world to make him shine. And here comes Forster with 10 (recorded) saves (probably made 20+ in real life) and 3 BPs :rolleyes: :pac:... Only relief is I'd have probably played Hennessey ahead of him.

    On the bright side, holding on my minusfoured Sanchez move paid off. And resisting Targett too.

    56 with Lukaku to go. Expecting a small red arrow...


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Payet wrecking the buzz. And what the feck was Ozil doin in the 6 yard box all the time! :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Ffs. Have been way too patient with Souaré. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,570 ✭✭✭patmac


    Well that was the most enjoyable MOTD ever, switching off all devices paid off. 70 points Rom and Barkley to go, delighted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Hmm. Disappointing 52 with Lukaku abd Courtois to go

    Didn't realise till after that Daniels got the assist. Bugger.

    Gonna be a red arrow but not by much hopefully.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    55 with Lukaku and Barkely to go.


  • Registered Users Posts: 42,084 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    66 points brings a rise of 41k places to 143k. Have Ighalo left to play and if he does well I should maintain my ranking there or thereabouts.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,440 ✭✭✭✭MEGA BRO WOLF 5000


    63 with no Aguero.

    66 with Lukaku to go brought me up to 16k. Hopefully don't fall back tonight. Some people still have 3/4 to play.
