    Clyne won't be getting that assist so will he?

    I emailed them in the hope they'll add it. #JusticeForClyne

    Erm! Because I thought he was injured, thought he would have played the last 20 mins at most. There was never anything wrong with Costa, it was all a ploy to try keep Torres there.

    You should still have put him in and set up your first sub - just in case.

    Well that is wonderful in hindsight now that he has scored 2 goals.
    At the end of the day, the media led us all to believe he was crocked all week, and even Mourinho said yesterday that he was touch and go even to be in the squad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    I used my WC... and the team i had before would have scored higher! fuck this game.. and fuck my stupidity!

    31 points with Adebayor, Ramsey and Sterling left! I'll be extremely lucky to hit 50 this week!:(
    I'm the same but too early to judge things need to give your new team a few weeks.

    Can't understand that. Odds were he would start if fit or not be involved at all if carrying an injury.

    Even if he only got 20 mins ( the least likely outcome by a long way) he was capable of getting a goal.

    Jaysus, the hindsight merchants are sticking it in me good and proper! ah well, 164 points so I'm doing ok still.

    I hope not . Tight enough H2H game was glad to see you sold costa too. Our old friend ramsey to win it for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,244 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    29 points. Bonus to come only for Siggy I'd say. Sterling and Ade left.

    Poor week. Would expect red arrows. The second Costa goal was the knockout blow.

    Disappointing going into the international break on the back of a poor week but at least I can take a good break from the game with my WC played.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,263 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Clyne assist added. :)

    ah stop, guys saying they shouldn't have given Rooney the armband and all, folk have full week and threads of people giving advice, and then post shouldn't have done this/that because of the results.

    At this stage, giving Rooney the armband for any game is probably a mistake, but if he bangs in a hatrick against QPR, people will be saying should have left it on him.

    Only mistake you made was positing about it. :pac:


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


    Well I should have played Pieters but I didn't so heeeeeey hindsight. ;)

    I'm just pee-d off at my decision, as it was stupid. I'll get over it. :)

    I believe that controversial plays are reviewed by the League. What ever the ruling is what the Fantasy folks go with. E-mail campaigns have no affect.

    Nothing to do with hindsight. If you have a 10.5m player who is a doubt you either start him or sell him.

    Selling him came back to bite a lot of people but I could see the logic in it. Putting him on your bench doesn't make sense.

    164 isn't a bad score, but 176 would have been better :)

    LOL. That's how I felt. Mourinho always keeping his cards close to the vest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,264 ✭✭✭Joekers


    41 pre bonus with 5 to play that'll do nicely


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,174 ✭✭✭Dearg81

    Exactly, it's zero risk playing him. He's either injured or not.

    I had already used my free transfer before the Costa news. ;)

    Agreed. Now I know. Always a bit of Mourinho trickery.


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


    Benching Costa was a really bad move, hindsight has nothing to do with it. Not to worry though, a lot of people transferred him out so you aren't alone in not getting his points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,372 ✭✭✭G1032


    31 including 2 Siggy bonus. Atrocious week. Sterling, Adebayor and Ramsey to play tomorrow and then it's sign out of FF for a fortnight. Fcuk Costa anyway.

    Well that's the thing I guess, if I had not used my transfer, I would have transferred him for sure anyways, so it's all the one.

    45 with 7 bonus points if things stay the same with Hutton and Ramsey to play.

    Annoyed with my Keeper choice played Krul (also had Williamson) rather than De Gea, annoyed as last week I had them the other way round. Also had Pieters on the bench but I was never realistically playing him at City.

    Think I may wildcard to get rid of the united players they really are playing bad. I had been defending their easy fixtures as a reason to keep the players however the just don't look dangerous.
