    Liverpool have loaded their attack. You've, Salah, Mane, Bobby, Keita and Jota there.....


    This will be a hectic 20 mins or so.


    I need something. Sitting on 10 points.


    Vardy somehow back on!! Dunno how.

    8 (-8) and TC absolutely **** burnt.


    Beat that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,089 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    Was 73 on the clock when I posted it. 3 mins added the norm.....

    Boards acting up as normal!

    Accidental captain Cancelo not looking too shabby after all.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,089 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    At least he won't be on penalties.... OG only thing that could be as bad !!



  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,351 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    25 so far with James, Cancelo and Maupay left to go. This is gonna be a bad week.

    6 points from 6.

    Anyone with a Bowen, Dennis or Kane got some lifeline at least.



  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,351 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    20 of my 25 points are coming from Bowen and Son. 5 points from the other 5. Salah and Reguilon both getting 0 points. At least Broja came off the bench and got me a badly needed point though.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,833 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    33 with double Chelsea, double City and Sanchez to go. Kane (c), Son and Bowen are 28 of that 33. Its a low scoring week so far, 33 is enough for a gameweek rank of 149k.

    Id imagine there is going to be an exodus off Salah now before the Chelsea fixture, the template is well and truly broken now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,492 ✭✭✭✭gormdubhgorm


    That is extremely good going. You should get a decent OR increase by the end of the gameweek.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,833 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    yeah the No Salah risky play has paid off so far. Son and Kane as captains in the last 2 GWs have scored 24 points compared to holding Salah for a postponement v Leeds and blank tonight.My rank went from 42k OR to 24k to 16k right now. If it wasnt for VAR and that armpit offside on Kane Id be in the top 10k now for the first time ever. Still happy enough but need Foden to start and finally do something tomorrow night.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭munster87


    Felt he was better than earlier in the season but still not much going on in 2nd half against 10 men. They are so much more dangerous on the counter attack.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭munster87


    23 from 4, Liverpool lads leaving the side down



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,054 ✭✭✭wanderer100


    30(-4) with Cancelo, Jorginho & Dalot left to go. Decent green arrow but could turn red by the end of the GW if things don't go well

    Really need Brighton to score against Chelsea tomorrow and City attackers to have a quiet night. I also have a feeling Rangnick will rotate & Dalot will be benched for Wan Bissaka



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,893 ✭✭✭Dubh Geannain


    From a situation of looking at only 9 starters this GW I'm somehow on 30(-4) with Rudi, Dias and Cancelo to hopefully play.


    I got 3 points from my 2 transfers so would have been better off with even less starters.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,833 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    yeah Spurs were frustrating today, awful first half from them and then v 10 men in the second half they couldnt get past the low block. I dont think Kane is gong to be a silver bullet for Salah going to AFCON but right now he still looks like a better option than Lukaku or Ronaldo.

    Spurs have shown good progress under Conte though and their upcoming games v Arsenal & Chelsea will be interesting as theyll have lots of counter attacks. Kepa is likely back in nets too when Mendy goes to AFCON.

    38 (-4) with 5 to go. DeGea, James, Dias, Sterling & Foden.

    Big fail with captain Jota 43k to 25k OR tonight, hoping to stay around there for the rest of the GW.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 43,029 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I was fully intent on us a FH but spent so much time on it yesterday I decided to walk away and come back to it this morning. I completely forgot about it and was gutted to be stuck with nine players and the armband on Son.

    I've 26 points with four to play which seems okay this week.

    Leaves me in a great position now with 2 FT's and all my chips and the wildcard.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,801 ✭✭✭Benimar


    16 from 7 including captain.

    My GW19 FH turned into an unmitigated disaster. I played it so I could keep Salah for the Leicester game (and I’d have been taking a hit just to get 9 players). It only netted me 15 points, so Salah missing that penalty last night was a killer.

    When all is said an done this week, I’ll probably be worse off over the 2 GWs than if I’d sold Salah, and I’m down a FH. Not a happy camper this morning.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭claw


    15(-8) from 5 with 6 hopefully to play. Down to 121k but have both my free hits so delighted overall.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 838 ✭✭✭SkySter


    40 with double Chelsea, double City and De Gea to go. No Salah had me hiding behind the sofa. Some small payback for not captaining him v Utd earlier in the season.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,089 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    Some savage scores here, well in lads. Good to know some people about here hadn't an absolute mare of a day. Huge sings on ORs, players like myself going down by 130% while others going up by 200%.

    Have Dias, Cancelo, Bilva, James and Rudiger today, I can only improve on my 6 point surely to God..... Famous last words.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,833 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Thats a great score for the week thats in it. It wasnt easy going without Salah expecting that sinking feeling to set in.

    Have double Chelsea myself and intending to sell at least one of them soon. Just hoping for some points v Brighton before I do but they havent been keeping clean sheets lately and Maupay has a bit of form. Have got Sanchez in the same game so not hopeful of points there either.



  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,351 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    I have Maupay and James so a good game for one means the other probably blanks. James to get a hattrick and go off after 60 minutes for a rest with his clean sheet points and then Maupay to get a hattrick. Here's hoping.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,833 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    ha thats a lot of hope there! Im resigned to James, Alonso and Sanchez all losing their clean sheets. Maupay is in a good run of form, 3 goals in his last 4 games. He's one of those players I always overlook but can go quietly under the radar.

    Just hoping Foden starts tonight, he has been a disaster of a transfer since I brought him in. Gambling on the Pep roulette is fair game but its an absolute pain when another layer of risk is added by him getting dropped for going clubbing. He clearly doesnt play FPL himself.

    Captain Jota is still better than captain Salah which so many had.

    Half a loaf is better than no loaf and all that
