I'm not even a tiniest bit annoyed I didn't captain him. Aguero and Lukaku were better choices. I was never captaining Suarez this week.

Humiliating for Spurs.

Lad in 4th in my Money league will get 106 this week.

Skippy44 · 15-12-2013 06:50PM

Suarez (c) bonus should take me to 103, which is nice

finnharpsboy · 15-12-2013 06:50PM

FT 5-0

G1032 · 15-12-2013 06:51PM

Ah f@ck this. Sold Mig and bought Szcz because was thinking long term and couldn't afford the price rises/drops of those two. Then captained Lukaku over Suarez.

I never thought Lu would do much, but I had Aguero captained right up until very late Friday. I'd actually intended to get up on Saturday and have a think about it, but delighted I slept in now.

SUAREZ!

I was never fond of AvB but he's now joined Jol as my most hated manager just for being useless. Levy should go cap in hand to Big Harry on this display.

I'll finish on 82 once Suarez gets his 3 bonus. Hoping not that many in the top 5k have Suarez captained so I don't fall too far.

The armband won't be taken off him now until he's injured or suspended.

titan18 · 15-12-2013 06:53PM

Should have captained Suarez I guess

HighClass · 15-12-2013 06:55PM

Always captain Suarez...

Very few I would imagine - even the one lad in my league that had Suarez (C) had Giroud and Remy as his other 2 strikers so Suarez was the logical choice for him.

Without Gerrard, I seriously doubted that Liverpool would have the engine to get the ball to Suarez as much as usual. I also thought the City defeat was a once off and that it would galvanize them. Wow, that was wrong!

That was emphatically put to bed. Jordan Henderson was absolutely immense.

So, as you said, Suarez is getting the captains armband long term.

Rayne Wooney · 15-12-2013 06:58PM

105 for the week

Danger781 · 15-12-2013 06:58PM

As it stands I'll be looking at 70 points.

With captain Suarez I'd be looking at 87.

Balls to that anyway.

Suarez set for 21 points here...

How about 22, 19 + 3 BPS

JPA · 15-12-2013 07:01PM

Congrats to the Suarez captainers, thought it would be a tight match.

Devia · 15-12-2013 07:02PM

Had Suarez captain but it's still kind of annoying that people are somewhat forced into having him to keep on top of their leagues. Takes a bit of the fun out of FPL for me.

Yeah I realised my error a few minutes ago and hoped nobody would pick up on it...

Inspector Coptoor · 15-12-2013 07:02PM

95 so far and will hopefully hit 100 plus when Suarez bonus points come in.

Whittingham on the bench pi$$es me off but aost every player scored well for me for once.
Green arrows all round.

Couldn't be bothered

FutureGuy · 15-12-2013 07:05PM

So I took a 16 point hit and made 15 of that back which I'm very pleased with indeed. 1 point to make 5 transfers before the Christmas rush is very good work indeed.

Thank Christ I did because, in addition to Gerrard being injured and Brady dropped, Kos and Aguero picked up injuries and Dawson got banned.

extra gravy · 15-12-2013 07:05PM

None of the top 10 players in the world captained Suarez...I don't feel so bad now

Owen_S · 15-12-2013 07:07PM

Not captaining Suarez wasn't my finest moment, tried to be clever captaining Lukaku, spectacular failure all the same.

Most of us* were in the same boat, so no worries there.

*Apart from the guy bossing the top of my mini-league who's barely touched his team all season as he picked it so well from GW 1. :mad:

Lemlin · 15-12-2013 07:16PM

My cup opponent left Flanagan as first sub. Poor bastard.

Much the same as me, just glad i have him in my team. Mig CS will offset it a bit but still expect to drop back from the 96k i was this morning.

Thatsfootball · 15-12-2013 07:35PM

The way it's looking, I'll have an average of 90 over the past 3 weeks! Think that accounts for my most consistent scoring ever!

dahat · 15-12-2013 07:38PM

I will land with 77 all in, hard to know where that will land me, have to be happy though.

Speaking as one of the top 100000 players in the world (for the moment), I feel a bit better too :-)

NabyLadistheman · 15-12-2013 07:38PM

Delighted with my transfer of B. Turner for Dawson, worked a treat. Into the top 5000 after yday. Not too disappointed not to have captained Suarez, nobody in my money league did

I don't think you'll fall far. You could go up. Not that many people captained Suarez and those that did mightn't of got bumper scores.

For example, a lad in my league only 30 points behind me (at 32k in world) captained Suarez and is still only going to finish on 87.

I'll finish on 82 having not captained him.

HighClass · 15-12-2013 07:41PM

Finished with 62. Expecting to see reds for the first time in a month or so.
