Surprised to see green arrows.Up from 57k to 55k with 21. Hat trick from Costa would be nice now.

Scorpion Sting · 04-10-2014 09:44PM

My 34 moves me up 74k places to 40k which I'm very surprised about. My wildcard looks like it has done the trick.

Chesty08 · 04-10-2014 09:52PM

24 points sees me move up to 15k overall!

Still have 6 players to play with Di Maria my captain! Looking like a good week (fingers crossed)

2 FT's in the bank for the international break.

Depends how many left to play. I have 7 players to come tomorrow including captain so I'm happy enough with 18. I've a bit of a whimsical captain in Fab though, so not that confident. However I have both Costa and adm so even if one of them goes well it's not a disaster.

I don't have Aguero so if you'd offered me a 7 pointer for him this morning I'd have probably taken it.

Sooner or Later · 04-10-2014 09:56PM

27 with Clyne & Pelle, Fabregas & Costa (c) and Di Maria to play

ChoiChoi · 04-10-2014 09:57PM

Overall rank up to 812

Prob go down a bit tomorrow but happy to get a look in in the top thousand for now!

SantryRed · 04-10-2014 10:01PM

Shocked that I've jumped from 10k to 6k with 27 from 6 players. Still have captain Costa to go tomorrow. I'd be happy with 10k at the end of the weekend.

Mr. Guappa · 04-10-2014 10:05PM

Just can't seem to make a good decision so far this season.
17 from 6 and 537k overall. WC ativated.

Fowler87 · 04-10-2014 10:07PM

Could do with Falcao and Tadic going ham tomorrow

Paully D · 04-10-2014 10:09PM

38 points with Costa, Fabregas and Pelle to play tomorrow. Aguero (C), Sigurdsson and Sterling my only good scorers, with my 3 defenders getting the grand total of 1 point each.

Green arrows all around and up to circa 7,000 in the world now which I'm delighted with, but I'd expect to drop back a bit tomorrow.

I was referring to the fact Berahino won the penalty not the game. I still think it's not right that Gerrard gets rewarded with a bonus point having had no attacking return and getting booked whereas Berahino who scored doesn't get any. The system is probably better than years gone by but still needs to be looked at with cases like this.

Ah OK. But again I didn't see the game so don't know how much the BBC live text reflects it but if accurate I'm not shocked by the BPs. Don't forget that committing fouls, getting caught offside, shooting off target, missing passes make you lose BPs.

That said the system is certainly not perfect but I think it's getting better with the years (the opposite than the price changes policy in my opinion).

I wonder if the cheap defence theory is starting to crack.. Burnley are going down and duff has had his day.. Leicester look to be shipping a few also... Defence is the hardest nut to crack this year in reckon

As Busts said, since the top teams are not yet performing much better, the cheap defence tactics is still valid. But yeah it may change, like last year (though it has already lasted longer).

Inspector Coptoor · 04-10-2014 10:25PM

34 points with 13 on the bench in the form of first sub Henderson.
Doubtful he'll come in.
Green arrows.

Dier, Fab, Di Maria, Falcao & Chambers to play

Mr.Prodston · 04-10-2014 10:30PM

12 (-4) and down to 19k from 4k. Only had Siggy, Moore and PVA.

However I wait in the long grass like a predator who is simply toying with it's prey. Captain RVP is getting hungry now though and ready to strike! With Nolan ready to finish the job in the 4pm kick off. Lets be having you!

skippy15 · 04-10-2014 11:25PM

back up to 2k- 5 to play.
No massive scores around, so tomorrow be an interesting day. but lot people with same players. It's likes of RVP etc: who could make major moves.
Stay top 5k ill be well happy

Mint Sauce · 05-10-2014 04:09AM

27 pts with 7 to play, 20 of them were from Siggy (c). Hoping a few have quiet days tomorrow.

OneColdHand · 05-10-2014 07:56AM

31 points from 5 players sees me jump almost 200k places up to 212k (surprised it was that much!). Also have ADM, Cesc, Costa Welbeck and Forster to play. I feel I'll drop a bit today as I captained Aguero where a lot have Costa captained.

Rikand · 05-10-2014 08:37AM

26 points.... -4 sees me gain 12k places. Up to 75k in world.

Captain costa to propel me into the top 50k perhaps ?

remoteboy · 05-10-2014 08:56AM

33 with Cesc, Ivanovic, Costa, ADM and Bertrand to play. Made ridiculous leap into top 30k last night. Really hoping that Costa has a quiet one so I can hold on to some of those gains.

FutureGuy · 05-10-2014 09:10AM

Di Maria, Costa (c), Fabregas, Ivanovic and Pelle to play. I need big performances.

thewools · 05-10-2014 09:17AM

30 - with De Gea, Lamela, Fab and Costa remaining...

Lamela big differentional for one week only... Wildcard to be activated this week!

Menas · 05-10-2014 09:59AM

19 with 7 to play. A big score from Costa today could make things a little boring for the rest of the season as even fewer people will want to take a captaincy risk in the future.
But he has by captaincy so am hoping for that decent score.

G1032 · 05-10-2014 10:28AM

I jumped 126,000 places yesterday to about 28,000. Some jump, but my captain was Aguero. I need a relatively quiet day from Costa in order to stay anywhere near top 50,000 I reckon. The 12 points from Robertson were huge for me yesterday.

Mr.Prodston · 05-10-2014 11:01AM

Man Utd: De Gea; Rafael, McNair, Rojo, Shaw; Blind; Valencia, Di Maria; Mata; van Persie, Falcao

Everton: Howard, Hibbert, Jagielka (c), Stones, Baines, Barry, Besic, Pienaar, Mcgeady, Naismith, Lukaku

Necronomicon · 05-10-2014 11:09AM

Wow, what I thought was a supremely average 31 points yesterday sees me leap 50k places to around 40k. Forster, Clyne, Fabregas, Di Maria, Pelle and Diego Costa to play.

KevIRL · 05-10-2014 11:44AM

Jumped 20K places myself to 21K, but the whole gameweek pretty much rests on what Costa does now as its essentially the Costa captainers v the non Costs captainers

Also think that there's so little variation at the moment in the top 200K teams that a differential player performing could make a huge difference, so the likes of Chadli, Falcao or Baines today for those that have them

Mr.Prodston · 05-10-2014 11:51AM

It's a big day in Prodston Towers today. I could have played it safe with Aguero and somebody or even used the wildcard but instead I took a gamble. It could set the tone for the next month or 2.

De Gea, ADM and RVP (c) in the first game. Costa, Fabregas, Clyne and Pelle for round 2 and Nolan coming in at the end when the dust will likely be settling for everyone else. I like to have my points on the board on a saturday as big sundays tend to let me down.

I think it's fair to say I'll sink or soar with whatever captain RVP does

KevIRL · 05-10-2014 11:53AM

Fortune favours the brave mr p. Best of luck

Hopefully. Although sticking with the pack has worked a little too well for my liking so far this season. I'll be back to that tactic next week most likely anyway.

km79 · 05-10-2014 12:05PM

Close from falcao........prob shud have scored
