GW 16 Matchday Thread

roryc

Normally double GW's dominate but this one isn't really much of a thriller... Like myself, a lot of people will be concerned with whether Fletcher plays or not. I brought him in mainly to captain this week, and if he was guaranteed to play both games I still would. Will be relying on early reports tomorrow morning if I can drag myself out of bed. Luckily living in Spain I have an hour extra on you lot

Bringing Bale in last week for Mata at a 4 point hit was a massive disaster, and it doesn't help that he'll miss at least the next two games. If Fletcher doesn't play and Rafael is dropped (as expected) I'll be struggling with the bare 11, and that's if Tevez starts!

I am currently on 71 for the week (exactly my highest score reached so far this season in gw 2) i still have Fellaini, Defoe and Nolan playing and should have a few bps in the post! After a long run of bad luck im finally a happy manager again! Cheers to anyone who takes the time to give out good advice on here! Defo a few of you out there who take it a lot more serious then i do and have it down to a science so fair play! Still have to put a good bit of it down to luck though, never would have played Clyne if Walcott was fit:rolleyes: Double stoke working out a charm too!

Rafael and Begovic on the bench. Would not mind if Ba misses out now as Rafael will come on. Need a Felliani captaincy goal badly

Skrtel, Shelvey, Enrique, I either need a better quality stream or Liverpool need to stop purchasing bald people.

Any idea which way round team Enrique/Downing will be playing today? I imagine them scaling the wing together like this

but who goes first?

(ps Downing is definitely Robin)

54 with Berbatov and Sterling to play. Happy enough with that. 28 points from that game alone!

good to see ya back Moon

Transferred Rafael out, have Clark and Clyne on the bench. Still on 66 points with Fellaini, Defoe playing and Nolan, Shorey and Cuellar to play.

Mr.Nice Guy

Have Rafael on the bench but good to see him return to form. I didn't want to have to sell him. Hopefully that's his place against Sunderland secured now.

Yep extremely lucky not to go off.

FutureGuy recently assured me that there is no such thing as luck:pac::D.

Another deflected goal from VP?? At least he is on my team now so I'll have no complaints.
