Gerrard as captain was a disaster. What's worse is I sold Kuyt off to get him in not long ago.

I sold Kuyt for Gerrard and hes scored in 2 of 3 games since I got rid, and Gerrards done nothing. Thankfully I ditched Gerrard this week too, although they have some handy games coming up.

I've ditched Gerrard now too. Would be so typical of this game for him to run riot against Wigan and bang in 2 goals.

Whoot, I seldom get to brag about an above decent GW. 73 and I've nearly broken into that top 100.

BaZmO* · 14-12-2009 09:38AM

Just noticed that this week was my second highest scoring week this year.....go me!!! 76 pts.

The 8 pt hit seems to have paid off.

Transferred...
Vermaelen(2) for Nelsen (6)
Cahill (0) for Valencia (2)

Dunn (0) Milner (4)

At least I covered the hit. Although I still had 11 pts. from two players sitting on the bench.

And more importantly I FINALLY picked the right captain this week in Drogba.

Dubliner28 · 14-12-2009 10:13AM

Bad week for me. Brought in Defoe with a 4pt hit and had him as captain.
Taught for sure Spurs would hammer Wolves. Crazy week for results etc...
Hoping now to get back to big pts mid week.
Going to put Ronney as captain (H- Wolves) - Has to score

Ha brave man. Spurs at home against Wolves didn't work out for ya and now you're going for it again?!

Fairplay.

current team:

GK:Sorenson/Hart

Def: Dunne
Def: Evra
Def: Wilkinson/Zayette

Mid: Milner
Mid: Fabergas
Mid: Kuyt
Mid: Lennon

St: Bent
St: Rooney
St: Adebayor

other subs: O'Hara, Stearman

ive no money in the bank but 2 free subs for this week

Personally, I'd get rid of Kuyt. Ok he scored 2 in 3 but is having a very underwhelming season. You could easily downgrade him to Bowyer or Reid and upgrade Adebayor to Drogs/Torres

Yeah i slung him out 2 weeks ago (ie before he got the goals) but Liverpool look like they cant keep a clean sheet at all lately (Despite the Everton game) so as a midfielder, you got to weigh up the consequences for that too.

NabyLadistheman · 14-12-2009 12:55PM

Who to bring in Giggs or Milner?

I think Giggs is a doubt for the next game...need to check that.

Mr_Roger_Bongos · 14-12-2009 01:08PM

Agbonlahor / Torres / Rooney

Atm i have 3 mil in the bank, a front line of;

Agbonlahor - Bent - Drogba

Agbonlahor's been playing well and in consistent form, Rooney not so much.

But utd's fixtures are very nice in the coming weeks.

I don't want to put the 3 mill anywhere else, but at the same time im kinda happy with Agbonlahor.

Any stong arguments for Rooney/Torres (other than Torres being one of the best strikers in Europe!), i just feel Rooney scores in fits and starts and Liverpool are trunks atm.

Rikand · 14-12-2009 01:14PM

good game week for me, 73 points. Now, just wondering which of my three chelsea players to stick in as captain for the game against portsmouth - Drogba, lampard or A. Cole

Royale with Cheese · 14-12-2009 01:19PM

Think I'm going for... Faye + Agbonlahor out, W.Brown + Torres in. Only just have enough money to do that.

FutureGuy · 14-12-2009 01:29PM

So how is everyone coping with 4 teams not playing, surely there are a few people that are fooked?

Personally, pretransfers, I have 4 players not playing which means I have the bare 11 starting. Of that 11 one is a major injury doubt and Scharner, Eagles and Stearman play Liverpool away, Arsenal home and United away. Ivanovic/ACole are rotation risks at home to Porthmouth.

I am mentally prepared for a dreadful week

I could tell you but it's blatantly obvious.

Yeah, I expect him to do something now against Wigan, but I knew he wouldn't against Arsenal as he has been playing some unusually poor stuff himself.

I'd like to have a bigger slice of the Chelsea pie vs Portsmouth, but can't afford to get Ashley Cole back, could afford Ivanovic, but he might be rotated....

Warper · 14-12-2009 01:44PM

Rooney or Drogba captain? Have to go with Drogba really with the form he is in. Might drop Rooney for Torres when he gets match-fit

Rikand · 14-12-2009 01:44PM

yeah you're right obviously! Ashley Cole it is :rolleyes:

I am looking forward to not having a keeper though

1mcampo1 · 14-12-2009 01:45PM

Have to offload Dempsey but dont know who to bring in? Other than that, happy enough with this

I have Sorenson - Just got in Hart as my spare goalie. 4.3, cheap as chips & will be playing most weeks

JPA · 14-12-2009 01:47PM

Do all teams converge so eventually there is just one obvious team?

we all end up with a team that looks the same

My team for this week is a little bit out there though

GK - Sorenson(SC)
DE - A. Cole(Ch), Vermaelen(AR), Nosworthy(SU), Dunne(AV), Samba(BR)
MF - Lampard(CH), Fabregas(AR), Milner (AV)
FD - capt. Drogba(CH), Jerome(BI)

Would normally have Zamora in for Jerome and Hunt in for Nosworthy.

mink_man · 14-12-2009 01:56PM

sorenson isnt playin...

token56 · 14-12-2009 01:59PM

Absolutely terrible past few weeks, have dropped right back in all my leagues.

In anger I made a few rash changes right after Sundays games and will lose 8 points this coming week in doing so. But i'm determined I can get back.

Tusky · 14-12-2009 02:04PM

What are peoples opinions on dropping Rooney for Torres now that he is fit again ? Rooney doesnt have many more points than Torres, which is surprising since he has played a lot more games.

Rikand · 14-12-2009 02:04PM

I know and neither is my reserve keeper

Sure feck it, I'll take the hit, I'm not going to transfer in another keeper when i want to save my transfers

Wise choice, a hit is rarely worth it for a keeper.
