you think Giggs would be arrogant enough as to sub himself on? Vidic i can understand, but why he didn't start him i don't know. RVP likewise i can understand. hope mata gets a run out, but yeah not particularly hopeful when you put it like that

I don't think it's arrogant to sub himself on. It's a nothing game. He should play a half. 20 years or whatever it is, he deserves a run.

Yes, he would. Last season and last home game of his playing career. He has earned the right to one last run out and if they go a goal or 2 up he will definitely sub himself in.

CSF · 06-05-2014 08:07PM

Yay Vidic on early enough to potentially get 6!!!

yeah i suppose but i'd look at it differently, you don't put yourself first when you're a manager is what i mean. but anyway we'll agree to disagree i just hope mata comes on!!

Surely Jones will be the one to come off for Vidic and hopefully pre 60 minutes.

Nice shout on both accounts

hurlingman97 · 06-05-2014 08:09PM

He should have started himself and took every single scorable free and peno. He deserves the record and a proper home send-off.

extra gravy · 06-05-2014 08:10PM

Was bemoaning the fact that I chose Evra over Jones...feel slightly better now.

If they get a penalty when he is on the pitch i think he probably will take it to preserve his record of scoring in every PL season.

Even without the injury, I think he would have been off at half time or soon after.

KevIRL · 06-05-2014 08:16PM

Wilson (Felliani)

zarquon · 06-05-2014 08:16PM

Now to check if one of my competitors has wilson as captain. Wouldn't surprise me in the least after the way FPL has gone for me in the last few weeks

Edit: One of them has long. Lump on now for Long as next scorer and 3 BPS, you heard it here first!

HighClass · 06-05-2014 08:19PM

Always captain Wilson :P

GillespieRoad · 06-05-2014 08:25PM

Seroiusly fluck this gameweek so much. I actually am convinced there is a conspiracy afoot to make me lose. I know I'm being a miserable Joffrey but Chester, Jones, Azpi, Nasri(knock), Ramsey, Mata, Rooney and captain Aguero are/were all injured or rested ! This is unprecented in my history of playing this game.
Um so a Nasri goal tomorrow is all I'll hope for now then

SlickRic · 06-05-2014 08:26PM

may get lucky here.

brought Vidic in as a risk this week.

come on penalty and let him take it!

Dr. Bre · 06-05-2014 08:29PM

and I thought the fa cup screwed with the fantasy. penultimate weekend I will never forget u

NinjaTruncs · 06-05-2014 08:30PM

mutha ****a Giggs, there was me laughing that Jones started and Vidic didn't, 22 bloody minutes and you make the switch, 22 minutes what's the point in doing that.

On Rory's point earlier: if someone is close enough to your score that they overtake you in the last couple of weeks of the season then they can hardly be called a 'clueless idiot'.

Wrong. The guy is a gambler. He will readily admit himself he will never have another season like it. Just unfortunate that I've had a big bet with him in the one season in 20 that all his gambles pay off. Extremely frustrating. The lad has sat with Chambers and Ince on his bench for months. His strategy simply wouldn't have paid off any other year. All the other leagues I'm in like the Boards cash one, Bohs etc I'm not too worried about. Solid players beat me as I've made a couple of mistakes and got some bad luck.

@Kev - It's more the fact that I need to put up with this lad giving me sh*t all summer for beating me... Hurts a lot more than the cash. As for obsessing too much... hardly. Same as poker, footie etc, if you're going to do something do it right!

Don't let the facts get in the way of my rant, I'm in meltdown mode like everyone else in here.

Edit: and I didn't look into why Jones went off.

Soft enough from Jones. Seen harder shoulder checks in the Tipp match the other day. So far it's looking like a 0-0

he's gone to hospital so i'd say it was serious enough.

what is irish people's obsession with comparing football players to GAA players though? both hurling and gaelic are completely different sports to football.
why the endless comparisions? we know footballers can be soft gits....we get that. but i would imagine any aussie that watches the games between the aussies and gaa players would say the same about gaa players?

sorry for mini rant, i'm still annoyed at mata not playing and need to vent

km79 · 06-05-2014 08:39PM

Jones off is a break for me. Now please bring mata on

KevIRL · 06-05-2014 08:50PM

Fryatt and Sagbo on for Rosenoir and Long at HT

Meyler booked also

Break for me too. Would be good if injury isn't too serious but he misses the last game.

I'm actually quite calm about it all. No point getting worked up. It's not going to change much.

Every cloud has a silver lining. Mine so far is Jones going off.

8-10 · 06-05-2014 08:58PM

Jones and Rosenior off help me, as does Vidic on. Not the worst but I'd like Mata to come on even though there's little hope of it.

HighClass · 06-05-2014 09:00PM

Shane Long gone off, well he was a complete waste of a transfer...Rosenior gone off as well.

Iused2likebusts · 06-05-2014 09:01PM

rival had harper, evra, mata and rooney tonight I have rvp and mata. Id settle for rvp coming on to give me 1 pt tonight as opposed to my rivals 0.
