    Good man Ravel,first time I put him in my starting XI.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 317 ✭✭bo-sco


    I've had Ravel since the start and hardly gained a point from him as I've always benched him whenever he's made an impact.

    Had him in my team last night with Ramsey benched but switched them after another goal from Ramsey in midweek. Hope Janujaz doesn't play now tomorrow but would imagine that's unlikely.

    But these are the calls you make! Will have to start playing Ravel more, looks the real deal now.

    On the bright side, bringing Suarez in for a hit and captaining him paid off. Swings and roundabouts!

    Only those brave enough to play Morrison should be allowed to get his points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Lets leave it at 1-0, 10 points for Ravel. Job done.

    Yeah it was definitely bravery on my part, an inspired move if I say so myself. Absolutely nothing to do with the rest of my bench being crocked.

    Shhhhhh!!!!!!

    Yeah it was a choice between Ravel, Hangeland and Kos. Couldn't see cleanies for the two defenders so easy choice really.

    Little to be gained from Suarez today. Of the six people above me in one private league, only one hadn't captained him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    My bench is currently looking like: AJ, Coleman, Ravel.

    As a United fan I've got a good feeling about tomorrow :pac:

    In my main money league the two lads in front of me both captained Aguero so im hoping for just the one from him tomorrow! ;)

    There is a lot of Augero captainers so a lot will depend on tomorrow. Also a decent sprinkling of Sturridge owners. In terms of overall rankings there will be the usual ghost RVP owners.

    Always better to have the top scoring guy even if 'everyone' has him, as it invariably improves your overall ranking

    Fair point. I don't deserve the points as I didn't play him.

    But some people who have played him may have had no potentially better option rather than being brave. It's Norwich, he was a good option for lots of people who have him.

    My instinct was to play him but the Ramsey factor made me change. I will go with my gut in future.

    Though that's not to say Ramsey won't do as well tomorrow either :-)

    Hopefully. I'm at 214k so would be great to at least crack the top 200k.

    Coleman is my hero of the week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    My missus was 27 points ahead of me so I told her to captain Aguero and leave Morrison and Gabbidon on the bench. Shes currently on 18 points. Might be sleeping on the couch tonight...

    38 with Zabaleta, Januzaj, Ramsey, Toure, Ozil and Giroud to go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Can anyone explain to me how I've actually managed to develop such a bond with Norwich and Turner in general? Something should really be done but with their handy fixtures it makes it even tougher.

    The worst thing is Norwich have gone 2 upfront pushing Howson back. I need help :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,082 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    pen norwich


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,082 ✭✭✭finnharpsboy


    hooper goal (no assist)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Hooper goal penalty....clutching at straws but an outside chance of a Mickey assist?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    And there goes a couple of points for Ravel. Standard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,358 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Its at least 1 point less for Ravel, but still happy with that goal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    "Sam Allardyce's face on the bench is a picture of anger, but his side go close to an instant response, Michael Turner fluffing his clearance and James Collins shooting wide from 15 yards."

    Micky T looks set to score the winner. At the wrong end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    Ah crap. Thought West Ham were gonna get a cleanie. Thought wrong.

    Is Nastasic out tomorrow? Jedinak and his two points to come in for him. Only other player left is Aguero. I'm looking at 68 I reckon including bonus. Not sure how others are doing but I'd imagine that'll be a good score.
