Gameweek 18 matchday thread

eh i dunno · 26-12-2013 08:21PM

a massive 32 points inc predicted bonus points.....shocking

BNMC · 26-12-2013 08:23PM

42 with at least 8 BPS to come. Through in the cup. A productive if not spectacular day all round.

Iused2likebusts · 26-12-2013 08:27PM

a great day nothing for coleman, yaya and a little injury for ramsey. Lukaku outscoring suarez as captain aswell:pac:

finnharpsboy · 26-12-2013 08:28PM

77 with predicted bps... should see lots of green arrows

masti123 · 26-12-2013 08:33PM

29 points... worst gameweek i've ever had

IsMiseMyself · 26-12-2013 08:34PM

That's my hopes and dreams for this season exploding. 36 points. Woeful. Was top 50k. Not anymore. :P Knocked out of the cup by an inactive who just happened to have a great set-up for today's madness. He should finish on something like 71 points--which, I'd wager, woulda knocked quite a few of us out.

Should be 3 BPS for Silva and Negredo, happy with that. Officials had a nightmare though. Sterling was a mile onside for his disallowed goal and 2 clear liverpool penalties turned down.

roryc · 26-12-2013 08:37PM

Never, ever, ever underestimate just how lucky some people can be at this game.

G1032 · 26-12-2013 08:37PM

Looking like it'll be 51 + 11 bonus assuming Silva gets 3
A very good week I'd say although I haven't looked at any scores in my pl
Lukaku captain though is a bit of a downer. I'm so far behind in pl I need to get captain choice right every week.

Did Silva pick up his tactical yellow card?

Rory cursed Ramsey good n proper!

Apologies - also apologies to Howard owners. In good news, I transferred Coutinho out this week.

IsMiseMyself · 26-12-2013 08:39PM

Yeah, I think Liverpool got awful unlucky. Sterling was obviously onside. (And on my bench!) And Suarez's yellow was pretty soft.

One more game and he will escape the 5 YC limit for the new year which will increase to 10.

Copper_pipe · 26-12-2013 08:43PM

Should have captained Walcott

So really your post about how lucky some people are in this game would be more appropriately said to be how unlucky you are in this game.

Luck eventually runs out, true class always shines through.

Nope, I didn't have too bad a week actually. Suarez captaincy didn't work out but was always a gamble. Had Howard sent off but I'm sure a lot of people were the same. Think I end up 53 which is about average I reckon.

Luck is a massive factor in this game, as shown by people that were forced into playing Mannone this week and managed to outscore Howard by 12 points. Similar examples every week. My comment was aimed at people who are unfortunate enough to be knocked out of the cup this week by inactive teams.

Thanks for the insightful comment though, I look forward to seeing everyone's true class shining through.

Ya, I'm well aware of that.
Just wanted to remind you of this from a few GW's ago

4 Yellow cards in 10 english games this season, hardly makes him an angel and shows that he is ripe for another card during the pending hectic schedule. He'll get his suspension very soon

I'm happy to be proven wrong. He has been behaving himself for the last few games. Glad i took the risk

KevIRL · 26-12-2013 09:00PM

Silva gone back to 2bps.

Should be on 61(-4) once the bps are in. V disappointing, four players on 1 point.

roryc · 26-12-2013 09:01PM

Come on now, you captained Rooney and hit 61. Hardly disappointing.

Try having Howard, Coleman and Lukaku return a grand total of 2 points and have the added result of McGregor getting injured leaving me with no keeper next week!

Lol. Bite achieved with too much ease really!

Happy Christmas rory

Lemlin · 26-12-2013 09:04PM

47 pre bonus. Captaining Suarez was a downer but my 4 point hit of Silva and Mannone for Mignolet and Brady worked out well.

Expecting bonus for Rooney, Mannone, Silva and maybe Terry.

garra · 26-12-2013 09:06PM

54, could have been better if I hadn't left Rodriguez on the bench again, must learn when to play the chap. Sterling took his place and passed up a couple of great chances to score

Really? Try 34 (-4) if you want disappointing :mad:

Scorpion Sting · 26-12-2013 09:08PM

The leader in my money league had the worst gameweek imaginable. Only one of his players scored over 2 (Dawson 3 points) for a total of 20 points. My Theo capt got 10 points more than him this week.

I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts!

EDIT: I was looking at the wrong Dawson, make that 19 points!

Happy out with the score

I thought you always went with the FFS poll and didn't it have Rooney at the top?

Dont worry he had a decent score. It's a bit of a running joke now to post that your score is disappointing and wait for the outrage of the less fortunate scorers

8-10 · 26-12-2013 09:13PM

54 (-4) after predicted bonus. My worst GW score since GW7 but happy overall considering I captained Suarez and others in the league scored poorly. Through in the Cup too! Wish the FFS Cup was this week too but it's not
