    Lots of differentials in my tie against TaytoCrisps.

    Me: Heaton, Friend, Sanchez, Redmond, Lamela and Vardy

    TaytoCrisps: Courtois, Morgan, Townsend, Tadic, Deulofeu and Ibrahimovic


    The Ibra fear is palpable.

    Leading TaytoCrisps by 20 points. My Sanchez + 20 vs Ibra and Courtois. I should have this tie in the bag unless Ibra explodes tomorrow.

    Leading in my game by 5 points.

    Oscar, Martial, Terry +5 points vs. Hazard and Carroll.


    I'd be disappointed to not win from here :pac:

    I'm currently on the 4th highest score in the league, and I'm guaranteed to lose :(

    Need a 10 pointer from Courtois tomorrow to avoid defeat in the opening game, not looking good :(

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

    I'm 58 v fc kilcullens 56. Both have hazard and I have Carroll & terry v courtois. Should hopefully see it out barring a penalty save/red card but

    Edit. Sorry, the 22 on bench was in a different head to head match I'm in, not this one. (Deleted part of comment relating to this)

    Lost to Inish Gael this week.

    Hard luck story of the week must go to Easy Rod and Legwinski who were joint top scorers this week with 80 but were up against each other!

    Congrats on the win. That's 2 losses for me now which shows me just how hard it's going to be to get promoted.

    Up against AdpRo. Differences are:

    My Hazard, Ozil, Costa, Benteke, Barkley, Evans and Williams vs AdpRo's Sanchez (c), Mané, Defoe, Negredo, Baines and Gibson.

    Your Hazard captain could be the difference, think it will be a close one now that Mane just scored.

    It now comes down to my Barkley and Williams +6 vs your Baines and Defoe. Hazard could have put the tie beyond doubt but was wasteful. Defoe could make the difference for you but I do favour my chances in this one.

    Yip, think you have this one alright, not sure what i was thinking ignoring Costa as a Kun replacement!! Really need Defoe to step up tomorrow.

    Looks like I come away with a win AdpRo, 52-49. Baines nearly had an assist late on as well, heart in the mouth stuff for me!

    Well played, Costa the difference. After a win the first day i've now 3 losses in a row, need a win next week.

    After 2 losses from 2 to start I have now won three on the trot. Wildcard played this week to bring Augero back and shift out some deadwood. Never drinking again up next so will be a tough ask to make it 4 on the spin against a seasoned campaigner.

    All square in my match against Hogey007. Differentials are my Costa, Rashford, Firmino, Ozil, Antonio and Evans vs his Ibra (c), Sanchez, Sterling, Capoue and McAuley. I definitely have the weaker team so don't really see me winning this one.

    Well that was an unexpected surprise! I lead 49-26 and it's now my Rashford and Ozil +23 vs Hogey's Ibra (c), Sanchez and Sterling. I could still lose this but it's looking unlikely now.

    Only seeing this now, think you have it in the bag. Great hauls from firmino & Costa as captain for you today. Well done!
    Would take a double digit score from ibra to give me a fighting chance.
    Slightly concerned that he won't play 90 mins after playing 90 mins thurs night. Just hope he starts and gets 70 or 80 mins.

    I think I have it won but I don't want to tempt fate. Ibra and Sanchez could run riot and that would probably win it for you. It's going to be interesting tomorrow as after the United match, it should become clear one way or another with Ibra and whether he produces the goods or not.

    Strolled to victory over Hogey in the end. It's my fourth win of the season and hopefully now I can push on and challenge for the promotion spots. Up next after the international break is skippy15.

    Up 21-20 against skippy. Baines didn't play so skippy has McAuley's 2 to come in and then it's my Rashford, Firmino and Friend vs his Ibra and Capoue. Hoping for a Friend clean sheet and bonuses to sneak me over the line.

    My tie with skippy comes down to a straight shootout between my Firmino and Rashford vs Ibrahimovic. I couldn't call a winner in this but the big Swede does love the big occasions and tonight doesn't get much bigger in terms of atmosphere, looks all set up for him to deliver the goods.

    I've been in free fall the past two weeks surprised I'm still in contention. As a pool fan I'll take a loss on this one lol. Even if Ibra doesn't play he will outscore my two other forwards of Agüero and benteke on - 1s

    Its said no decision is a bad decision, but for me this week was the opposite, couldn't think who to transfer so left it as is and won my H2H with a healthy 88.
    My assault for top spot continues and I am comfortable with the team I have now, makes a welcome change on the previous two frustrating campaigns.
