Last Man Standing thread

CSF

Mulling over the idea of running something a little different next year to shake it up a little.

Last man standing type of thing.
39 teams. 10 euro each. Lowest score is eliminated each week leaving 2 teams to fight it out in GW38. Winner takes 290, runner up takes 100.

Would people have a genuine interest or is it too out there?

I have a bad feeling about this week, my luck could eventually run out. Will be starting on -4 and probably without Salah, how are the rest of ye fixed?

Commiserations Scorpion Sting, it really came down to the wire, I was seriously fretting everytime Eriksen had the ball.

Best of luck with the rest of the season

Bad luck Scorpion.

I think the -8, -8 and-12 teams finished in the bottom 3 this GW.

Whilst this league is good fun I don’t think it should alter the way you play the game as it’s my overall finishing position at the end of the season that matteres to me.

Think I’ll be starting next GW on a -8 and it could even be another -12.

Yeah I knew the -8 was going to put me in trouble in this but I didn't let that stop me because like you say overall rank is important too.

Just wish I had chosen Son over Eriksen though.

No Arnautovic is a real kick in the teeth for me. I need Eriksen to outscore Alli by 4 points now I think.

Scorpion Sting

I fear that Alonso goal could be my downfall. Going to be close though.

Throw a few extra pound into the collection basket this week and I might continue to do it

Thanks for doing the table.

It’s going to be so so close between the bottom 3.

The only reason I choose Eriksen and Son over Alli is his proclivity for a yellow or to lose his head a tad.

A Chelsea clean sheet could drag Boots234 into contention too maybe.

Fair play Father, but I fear if you are eliminated this week there will be few volunteers to do the scoring next week, a definite poisoned chalice.

Apologies for the delay and fair play to those who have done the tables before, it's not that easy! :eek:

Anyway, I think I'll be the one losing out this week unless Chelsea can keep a CS, either way it's going to be tight. Please let me know if any incorrect scores, etc. I'll edit them thereafter

48 net with Mansouka, Arnie, Son, Kane c., and Eriksen to go.

58 with Kane (c), Lloris, Eriksen, Masuaku and Arnautovic to go.

Not the heights I was hoping for from my Free Hit

41(-4) with Hazard, Alli, Arnautovic and Kane(C) left

Johny Cage

43(-4) with Azpi, Christy, Arnie, Ogbonna, Son, Alli and Kane(TC) to play

With only a few left we could all post up our current score, including hits, and remaining players. If that’s easier ?

I’m on 30 with Alonso, Masuaku, Eriksen, Son and Kane (c) to play.

I’m off all this week so I can put a table together this morning to see where we all stand with 2 games to go?

That would be awesome Father.

Surely I’m gone from this after the -12 ?

I’ve seen one of the -8 guys looks safe and I think the other -8 guy did ok too.

It’s all gone downhill since normanoffside and the other guy went out.

I think Alli, Klavan and Arnie have put paid to any chance I had.

I really don’t think Alonso is as important to Conte as he is to his FPL owners. Great FPL asset, average player.

Whilst I agree defensively he's average, going forward he's a real threat.

Fully agree CSF, as an actual football player he is, I would go as far as, below average. Chelsea were well known to be actively looking for a left back in the last two transfer windows and the only reason he starts every game is because they have no viable alternative, they went three at the back to cover his frailities as a defender as much as to highlight his attacking prowess. He didnt exactly pull up trees at Bolton or Sunderland, some of their fans dont even remeber him playing for them!

All that said he is of course a FPL legend.

I'm probably being bias (and optimistic) as an Alonso owner but surely Conte wouldn't rest such an important and in form player before a big trip to their rivals.

He could easily give him the game off vs Norwich and have him ready to go for the 13th?

Could be argued that would be the reason he’d rest him as risk of injury must be high with all his recent minutes played.

I do kinda hope and expect him to start but I would not be at all shocked if he didn’t.
