    such a bad week, 35 (don't have costa), and 20 of these came from fab(c), hitting 50 would be nice - got 3 united players to go, though strong possibility each one could start of the bench. :( already took a hit to bring in Costa, really don't want to spend half the week thinking about it only for him to be "injured" or have a price rise.

    No Costa.

    Therefore a shíte week.

    My own dumb fault, but it feels like such a severe punishment for one mistake.

    Same boat the key thing for those without is not to panic and assume you have a bad team. 1 transfer(costa) for most of us and its all good. The weeks were 4 or 5 players you dont have score well and then want are far worse.

    If De Gea was to ever miss a game this season then tomorrow's the one to do it. Hamer on my bench with 8 points!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭pollocks


    Miserable 38 with falcao captain and Chester left to play

    Snap!

    Chester could also get Monday off quite handily.

    66 all out. Defence is a shambles though so next 2 or 3 transfers will be used to sort that out, starting with Southampton cover.

    yeah my only mistake was keeping .8 in the bank and going for balotelli for the week as I feared Costa was out.
    If I had not if be on around 60 with falcao and di maria to play.
    good few points on the bench too which was main reason for wildcarding.
    just one of those weeks when everything possible went against me compounded by a player with massive ownership scoring a hat trick :D
    lesson learned


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,530 ✭✭✭✭km79


    even John Motson is rubbing it in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,679 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    45 points - not the end of the world. Captain Rooney and Chester to play only. Red arrows - down from 20k to 70k which is acceptable for now.
    Really hoping Rooney does something tomorrow (even better if he didn't play at all but that is not going to happen).

    Looks like Costa and Fabregas are must have at this stage.

    Guzan,Chadli,Moore & Hutton on mine = 27 points:(:(

    I allowed Krul would be a better bet today,I didn't allow for the fact that Newcastle would be a steaming pile today.

    65 for the week.... Minus 8, ah well! 57 for the week. Happy with that after my shocking ng wildcard last week.

    50 is the aim each week so 57 is grand. Probably a stupid question considering how long I'm playing the game but ate points hits accounted for in head to head matches?

    Yeah, point hits are automatically deducted in head to head scores.

    watching MOTD and alexis's goal was beautiful


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Bah, 47(-8) without captaining Costa, it's the -8 that will kill me. Need to stop gambling, captain ballotelli failure.

    First time ever over 1m for GW rank, Rooney the only man who can salvage that tomorrow. Down to 600k overall.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    I haven't read any of the posts here since this morning, I'll catch up tomorrow but I have 17 points with just De Gea and Rooney left, Sterling captain no Costa and hazard over fab I'd the quick explanation.

    Been outt all day and am just checking the threads now.. finished on a mighty 71 and green arrows all the way.. hopefully now QPR do the business tomorrow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod


    28 points after the wildcard!!! I had Costa in my side all week, up until yesterday, the injury news put the scare on me. Only Di Maria and captain Van Persie to play, I desperately need them to do something.

    Snap! Didn't even realise Hamer was playing yesterday!

    Any idea how United will live up today? FFS are predicting Falcao won't start but you'd have to wonder who will miss out when he's fit or who will be getting pulled early for him to come on.

    51 points with Evans, Di Maria and Rooney as captain left to play


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 119 ✭✭RQ2013


    Can't believe I captained Sterling over Costa... Difference between average game week and a good one.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 148 ✭✭Pipjam


    I see Pieters is yellow flagged with a knock 75% chance of playing. Did he go off yesterday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭qwabercd


    61 (-4) with Rooney to go. Costa really saved me. Surprised so many had costa as captain. Expected to move up a bit but pretty much stayed at the same ranking.

    Says the guy with nearly 6,000 comments which im guessing are about 95% drivel.

    What we need less is regular posters attacking new posters. Yellow.

    A dreadful 35 points with 9 played. Hope Utd deliver today
