I'm the only one of the top 6 in my money league that has Rooney....

Just hoping Suarez doesn't knock in a couple against Everton.....

Slim chance of that even though i have him as capt on my ff arena cup entry

Jimmy Iovine · 11-03-2012 10:03PM

Just checked there and I'm currently 7,425 in the world. On 1,580 with another 3 points from Sigurdsson to come off of the bench. Hoping for a quiet game from RVP tomorrow and at least 7 from Suarez on Tuesday.

Mr. Guappa · 11-03-2012 11:37PM

Today was a good day for me:
Rooney - 10
Vorm - 8
Moses - 6
Evans - 6
Graham - 2
Silva - 2

My transfer in of Rooney for Aguero worked out nicely and now others around me will hopefully be scrambling and taking points hits to get Rooney in.

On a decent 45 so far, hoping for Rooney and Moses bonus plus maybe another 1 from somewhere. Still have RVP (C) and Skrtel to play.

Did the exact same and also captained Rooney. Happy days

PopTarts · 12-03-2012 10:03AM

I'm hoping for 3 Bp's for Rooney and 1 for Vorm.

That's the max I'll get I think!

Cantona's Collars · 12-03-2012 10:22AM

Luis Suarez,22 league games. 6 goals. Why didn't I stick with my gut instinct and these facts before taking a hit to get him in & making him captain.He better get a hat trick against Everton.

Full time!

Vorm and Taylor do it again. Players of the season!

And to think we had people on here predicting the demise of Swansea's clean sheets.

smokingman · 12-03-2012 10:47AM

Hit the top of the one league I wasn't leading but am a bit nervous about the bonus points coming in. If Cheltenham betting choices weren't distracting enough, I'll be on edge until tomorrow morning now.

I'm hoping VP will either not play or put at least two past Newcastles defence....<finds his twitter account and pleads...>

POKERKING · 12-03-2012 11:01AM

The_Kew_Tour · 12-03-2012 11:16AM

Happy with 46 points.

Still have RVP, Ba and hopefully Chamberlain to play, as well as Enrique to play again during week.

PopTarts · 12-03-2012 11:31AM

I hope Santon doesn't play tonight.

FutureGuy · 12-03-2012 11:38AM

40 after bonus. I weighed up all my options at the weekend and went with an 8-point hit to make 4 transfers. I felt it was a week of change in terms of fixture difficulty and decided that I could make back the points pretty easily with a little luck.

Rooney (13) in - Aguero (1) out
Skrtel (1 + ?) in - Huth (2) out
Enrique (2 + ?) in - Kelly (2) out
Evans (6) in - Santon (?) out

So thats 22 points with 2 to play vs 5 with 1 to play.

Long story short, top of my money league this morning. 90 point deficit made up in about 7 weeks.

Ba and RVP (c) playing tonight, Enrique and Skrtel playing Tuesday.

Get fcuking in!!!

AdpRo · 12-03-2012 11:54AM

44 with 4 to play....happy enough, need RVP to do nothing tonight as everyone ahead of me in my money league has him captained!

Nuri Sahin · 12-03-2012 11:54AM

40 points after BP's so far. Was happy, as I had made some ground and was just a single point behind carlcon.... and then I looked at his bench :pac:

We both have RVP captain for tonight so no points gained there, but I also have Ox playing later (hopefully he's fit to start!) and Enrique who tbh I'll be shocked if we (Liverpool) keep a clean sheet in the derby tomorrow.

In fairness to Suarez, at least regarding last Saturday. If there was a poacher in the box. He'd have probably have grabbed an assist or two. Had his head up more than usual I noticed, just no one to pick out.

froog · 12-03-2012 12:04PM

on 40 now pre bonii with RVP(c) to play. well happy with that. pleased with my decision to get rid of silva and aguero a few weeks ago. it's united all the way now i think, i'l get a defender to join rooney and young. people reckon evans will start for the rest of the season? any threat from smalling?

Well I hope him and Liverpool do something tomorrow. They were pathetic against Sunderland. Charlie Adam should never be allowed wear a Liverpool jersey again

Less said about Adam, the better for my sanity tbf :pac:

Lemlin · 12-03-2012 12:35PM

Michael Turner is a legend. I only played him because Kompany was injured and he returns 8 points. Last week he got an assist and a couple of bonus as well.

smokingman · 12-03-2012 12:36PM

44 with only Captain Van Pirsie to play.
Caulker for Swansea seems to be turning into a bonus machine these days - raging I didn't put him into my starting 11 but might have a bit more faith in him from now on.

Caulker is my 3rd sub,Senderos will come on before him:(

Knowing my luck this week,Suarez will score,then miss a penalty and get sent off.Why oh why did I buy the bollix? Damn you DGW fever!!!!

Liverpool are the only team to play with no strikers,Suarez is more of a playmaker.Shows how much faith they have in Carroll.They look utterly toothless & whoever stated on here that they are going to give someone a battering needs their head examined.

The only ever present I have is Enrique and he's on my hitlist now as 'pool can't keep a clean sheet either.Suarez is going after Tuesday's game.

dahat · 12-03-2012 01:18PM

55 with 3 to play....made 5 transfers :eek::eek::eek:,lost 16 of those points and still looks like i will top my main league after tomorrows games!!!!

What a weird GW...........

I did 4 (8-point hit) and it worked well...what were your transfers?

Ba Pogrebnyak

long term
Valencia Lampard----short term,sold again for Bale
Sessegnon Drenthe

short term
Aguero Rooney

long term
Richards Jose Enrique---unsure??

Had Rooney as captain so i guess it has worked out...wont risk so much again though....

Jax Teller · 12-03-2012 01:43PM

I'd be keeping Enrique if I had him . Qpr and Wigan coming up for Liverpool .

keano_afc · 12-03-2012 01:48PM

Not bad for once. 64 points with RvP and Cisse to play tonight. Then I've Enrique the following day. Making up some ground on my rivals this week. Guy ahead of me has RVP as captain, and I'm an Arsenal fan, so not sure what to want tonight! High scoring Gunner win with Cisse on the scoresheet might counteract the captain issue.

It's funny but I am seriously considering Silva and Bale to Yaya and Lampard. He seemed to play in the hole on Saturday...that would be a position where he could score big.

I'd hold Enrique long term, even until the end of the season. They have strong fixtures. Aguero to Rooney was a great move this week, not because you scored big, but because of Rooneys fixtures for the next 6-7 weeks. Drenthe short term ain't a bad move and will pay for some of the transfer because of the dgw.

I'm personally holding onto Ba. I expect goals galore tonight. Neither team is looking solid at the back and we have two of the most dangerous forwards looking to capitalize on that. Ba has Norwich at home gw29...well see after that.

dahat · 12-03-2012 01:54PM

Lampard also picked up a BP so he must have made a good contribution FF wise...still at 11.0 he would want to pay my wages to keep him!!

Silva stays,pure and simple........cannot bring myself to get rid.....

Ba i could never get right,anytime i had him it was too late etc...Balotelli could be an option for the 3rd striker role at some point...

Rooney is just Rooney,cant be sold now as you pointed out,fixtures are favourable till end of the season,i may even get TC in soon
