    It’s an insanely good defence with insanely good fixtures. Granted I was expecting 12 points from them and maybe the odd bonus. 32 points was not in my list of expectations!!!

    Stones scared me for rotation and I would have gone for Dias but I did son to kdb and DCL to Watkins when I could have done Antonio but I was afraid of his injuries. Swings and roundabouts!

    Bringing in Stones to replace Bellerin with last weeks free transfer working out well so far. Should be on 54 with the bonus points from Stones and with potentially another 14 to play on the bench boost.

    Wow. Unreal.

    Overall as a non KDB owner I am happy, but bloody John Stones!!!

    Ended up buying Stones for Robertson, frees up a lot of funds and I dont see this attacking great Liverpool play lately, probably gonna regret it but what can I do. He is set to rise in price tonight as well just fyi

    See before the Man City and Man United reschedules, I was planning for a GW18 having 11 and a GW19 Free Hit (which was abandoned when City and Villa got DGWs this week) so having 3 City players was the most obvious thing in the world for me.


    I've been telling anyone that would listen on here that Stones is a reliable starter, but yeah like I said, the extra 15 points are just wonderful wonderful luck.

    83(-4) with 10 to go incl. TC Salah.

    Stones very much the hero....in hindsight he was the obvious choice for captaincy this week :-)

    You sold Robertson going into this week?

    And Stones will still have a monster score!

    2 starts 2 CS would only be 12 points, plus or minus 1 for a card or a bonus. Currently on 21

    51 with 13 to go, no chips used, HEWT.

    Sold Robertson for Stones going into the week where he plays Spurs away.

    Unfortunately not for when he is going into DGW that we are currently in :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,253 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    When people are saying how many players they have to go why aren't ye including your captain as 2 players and your triple captain as 3 players?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,735 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Oh just **** off Sterling naturally I sold you for Salah.
    Had him for about 15 gameweeks.
    Plus not only that not having Stones basically cancels out the KDB treble captain.

    That’s exactly what I’m thinking. I know stones ownership is low but still. Stones has scored a TC worth of pts alone this GW. But still, looks like KDB will play next game after being taken off so I’ll take that. Along with Salah blank.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 313 ✭✭cizolin


    Having terrible gamewk so far, no City and poor defence not helping...26 pts so far, need Grealish to get hauls but anyway thats just the way it goes :)

    Ah just 1 week too late for the bounty. Still think it is a good transfer with the potential to free up funds for other upgrades.

    The thing with Stones is even if he's rotated and rested, he's so cheap that you can't be that pi$$ed - as oppose to seeing Sterling or Cancelo benched

    For sure. But I really really don’t see it. Pep finally has a CB partnership that are neither sh*t nor constantly injured. He will ride this for all it’s worth.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,253 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    61 (-4) with 14 to go (TC KDB is 3 players). Up to 47k.

    He benched Rodri today and you probably would have said that was unlikely as well. But just got to roll with it

    Yeah, I just think a solid CB partnership is something you don't mess with. Particularly when you have NEVER had one in your City career.

    My thinking also.

    I can now go Grealish KDB Bruno Salah, Antonio, Kane, Bamford after next GW at -4. I think, all except Grealish would be penalty takers for their respective teams. And Grealish could be penalty taker for Villa except for he is a nice guy. :rolleyes:

    Might jus dodge this thread as monster scores are posted now :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,029 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    67 (-8), 11 to go

    The good: Bringing in Coufol and AWB, the bad - Werner and Cancelo 1 pointers.

    Still long way to go


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,095 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    70 with 11 to go but doubts over KDB & Vardy for the next set of games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Johnstone or JohnStones kinda week?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,823 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    50(-4) feels a bit meh. Weeks like this and last are a bit frustrating when we look at some many different options of players to get in for DGW or on FH and the ones we dont get score well like Stones/Gundogan

    74pts, -4, no keeper and TC KDB. Salah blank was helpful and I'll take 7pts from a 60min appearance from KDB. One of my best transfers too - Dias and Antonio in. Hopefully KDB can add to his tally midweek!!
