    solid 3 pointer from the Bale :cool:

    The one player I was scared of this week. Now hopefully his price doesn't rise before GW24, which will allow me to get Cazorla for the DGW before finally settling on Bale for the long run.

    0-0 for Stoke and Chelsea would be a beautiful thing. Begovic, Cameron, Ivanovic and most importantly....a clean sheet bonus for Mata :D

    Kilgallon has to be disappointed with not getting a start? I am anyway :(

    Cahill not starting due to wife giving birth last night,

    Women,no consideration:D

    My Defoe pick backfired although he looked dangerous early on & a brilliant save denied him.He's gonna be first choice for a month at Spurs now Ade is off to the ACON so I might stick with him.

    :D All those managers who brought in turnbull

    Bale and Defoe - well, that was a good start :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101


    Why would anyone bring in Turnbull, he's bloody useless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,727 ✭✭✭darego


    because he was a cheap way into the chelsea defence, apparently

    I believe all of them, including me, had a back-up plan... Will have to waste one free transfer to get rid of him, but don't need to do it straight away as next four gameweeks are not bad for Sunderland(Mignolet).

    It's FF. How good a player isn't what it's all about. If Turnbull was starting in goal for Chelsea, at 4.3m, he would definitely be worth it, useless or not.

    Chelsea's ability to keep CS's decreases significantly with a rubbish GK in there. He's as bad as that other lad Hilario they have on their books.

    Cant believe the stress of that wildcard... and after all my farting about trying to accommodate Bale in place of Fellaini he only scores me 3 points!! Swansea better run amok at Goodison! very quiet game for Fellaini and a nice doube digit score for Michu please...:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    Ba scares me. :(

    I hope he scares Stoke & Southampton.

    Or the opposite of that would work out quite nicely!

    Ba scares me. :(

    Him and Bale were my two big worries this week, one down one to go.

    I had Begovic and Jaas in before wild card.. got rid of both because i was screwing up rotation and getting keeper wrong,week in, week out and looked for cheapest keeper I could find.. and so opted for Turnbull and Tremmel. I did this to afford RVP, long term I think the decision is worth it. Had free funds so bought Lloris in, who will replace TB on bench. Will get rid of Lloris after this Gameweek, and go for Bunn, who I will use as my main keeper, with Turnbull as an unused keeper.. thus allowing me with the extra money saved by having two cheap keeprs, to afford a frontline of Suarez( who I don't currently have) as well as Ba and RVP. He's going to replace Lambert who I'd rather have for DGW, meanwhile having Gerrard for this DGW only as well as his form is super. So Turnbull ownership was a tactical decision for me, and the back-up plan has still worked.

    Great chance for Jones there.

    I had Begovic and Jussi too, kept Begovic and ditched Jussi as I rarely used him, Too much money tied up there. Got Federici in as my bench keeper.

    Ruddy will be back in about a month I think, so Bunn will be dropped

    Glad I followed advice & benched Demel for Gibbs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 712 ✭✭✭Devia


    West Ham CS gone already. Terrible start


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,141 ✭✭✭Santi101
