    Calm the Kaka lads.

    1. TC Aguero was a good call. He played 90 vs 2 weaker teams. In terms of probability and not hindsight there will be few better opportunities.

    2. 9 points return from your TC chip is disappointing but far from a disaster or 'season defining'. 15 to 20 would be a great score from the chip. 9 is better than 2 or 3.

    3. You are all UP 10 points from having captained Aguero rather than Ibra who you were gonna. (Yes you were).

    All excellent points. The sky isn't falling

    80 points without using TC and with Sterling as my only city player seems like a win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    With the PSG game tonight and above all after what happened (:eek::eek::eek: I'm not Parisian and live closer in every aspect to Barcelona but still as a French that is quite some historical shocker), I had kinda forgotten about this game.

    0-0. Had 4 tonight for 6 pts ((C) pts included). So it's a(nother) DGW fail. And quite a big one in the end.

    So. 69 (-8). Probably another -8 coming... A night to forget!

    -4 to Get him in and Sterling to afford him
    Alli and lukaku out
    And a transfer to Get lukaku back in
    And I'll still have aguero !

    90 (4) with TC played

    Seems about average

    Apart from the Kaka bit. Although slightly impressed that my autocorrect is familiar with the mercurial Brazilian. :)

    64(-8) a poor gw no regrets it didn't work out for me but fully believe I made the right decision with all my moves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,790 ✭✭✭Benimar


    77, no hits but TC played.

    I had the cash to do a straight Defoe to Aguero swap so avoided ripping my team apart. The downside was that before the DGW was announced I had Kane eyed up as captain :( (I didn't have Ibra and was adamant I wasn't getting him)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,929 ✭✭✭kopite386


    60 (-8) no bad not great but I didn't play my TC on either Sterling or Aguero so that's a positive to take from it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,471 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Clichy 3
    Pieters 2
    Sagna 1

    68(-8) with TC played. TC not the problem. Rest of my team were woeful. Likewise don't regret any moves really, getting Sterling over Sane was a 50/50 and with Sane blanking and hopefully an extra player next week as a result it'll near enough break even.

    Will field 10 in GW28 with a -4, not much cleaning up to do after the DGW once I ship Sterling.

    10k red arrow to 55k. Good position ahead of BGW/DGW season with WC and BB intact.

    Ibra C, Alli, Hazard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭GetWithIt


    Went with my own judgement, captained Arnie and avoided City entirely. Not a complete success but happy enough. Even 1 point off the bench would have felt sweet but I guess there's no arguing with Man Flu.

    83. No hits. All chips intact.

    It would've been a -2 if you captained ibra so it's even better than the 10 you mentioned:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,071 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    87 (-4) TC played and could have been so much more. A decent jump in rankings, I just hope the next 1 or 2 TC options don't go nuts.

    Or not ;)

    Math...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,505 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Captained Aguero but didn't TC. As FHFC pointed out the alternative was very likely Ibra, so the captain situation is a huge win this week.

    Unfortunately with 51 the week didn't pan out that well all in all, but having taken no hits this week I can feel justified enough in that and hope for a TC to work out for me later in the season.

    The DGW is dead. Long live the DGW! :pac:

    In hindsight it's not really a cause of this as GW28 needs to be taken into consideration as my other options were to replace Mane & Coutinho but with them having this extra game (GW28) I didn't choose them.

    I've moved up from 102k to 80k , still seeing green arrows & if I seen more green arrows after Sunday night il be more than happy!

    The King Aguero is dead. Long live the King.

    I imagine this will be one of the last weeks he is fantasy relevant unfortunately

    You just know he will hit a massive score in the next dgw
    Or not
    But we will all bring him in just in case :D

    The IBRA ban means I'll prob hold him for a week longer now anyway

    Alli and luakkau minus 4 to Sterling and aguero with the TC used


    I don't even want to do the math

    Kane Hazard and Alli to Aguero TC Sane and Sterling -8. Sums up my season:o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Grant is now joint 3rd in the GK rankings alongside Lloris and De Gea, despite only getting his first start in GW6. Got him at 4.1m, and Jaku at 3.9m. Cheap goalies really providing great value this season


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Just looking at scores in most of my paid leagues its looking like an awful gw for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,817 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    69(-4) I was in superb shape Saturday but my gw eventually lost all momentum, I do have my WC, bb and tc chips left and I have 10/11 players for the weekend so I'm in reasonably good shape


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

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,764 ✭✭✭Thepoet85


    97 (-4) and up to 14k or.

    Not often I get one of the better scores here, I honestly thought plenty would have tonne plus scores.

    Having got rid of Kane and Alli for a -4 and Kun only getting the one goal, I still feel it was a gw that could have offered so much more.

    Kun Costa Lukaku Grant Mane and Pieters returning my points.

    Have potentially 10 playing next week (Holgate Phillips and Heaton doubts) having taken another -4.

    Well caught up on my money league rivals, but only time will tell if this week was a success or not.

    I'm not quite sure why people are writing of Aguero other than the obvious frustration. He's well back in Peps favour, looking sharp. But for a late Pickford save and we'd all be TC geniuses and holding him.

    Stoke played about 6 defenders and killed the game by all accounts. City not scoring at home is a freak event. Stoke have a decent defence. The recent 4-0 coloured our thinking.

    Hard fixtures but City will get more chances vs Arsenal and Liverpool than Stoke tonight.

    I'll have a WC to cover my nakedness and hopefully a PMA PPA (Positive Pep Attitude)

    Good Luck.

    95 and now 250 places outside top 10k with my best GW (Top 25k) and highest score of the season.

    Double Stoke defence the major factor considering Palace and Man City were the only other teams to keep clean sheets.

    Gray (12) and Hazard (11) were transferred out for Sterling (6) and Kun (9)
    So doing an Iroced....

    Gray + Hazard + Ibra (c) + Gray again +(GW28 player using FT) v Sterling + Kun (c) - (minimum 1 transfer=4pts )
    So
    Gray again +(GW28 player using FT) is a point up. :eek:

    TC chip was the right call. It may cost me in OR by the finish but many of my rivals used it too.
