    That's probably the biggest jump I've ever seen, relative to final placement.

    Look at this guy. May not be the biggest jump but...

    Dropped 600,000 places after yesterdays disaster. Went from 4th and in touching space of the top of my league to 13th, woeful stuff altogether. Sterling, Siggy & Taylor playing today, need another two goalfests.

    Pity I cant see my GW rank and overall score with the captaincy change and substitute in.

    ~350k positional jump on the score I had yesterday. Reckon it could be another 100k jump if the 35 points pending are included


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Nib


    Up 700 places to 1150 overall with my 61. Shocked to see green arrows after seeing some of the huge scores on here yesterday. Have Siggy, Sterling and Di Maria to play but PvA subs in for Costa with -2. :rolleyes:

    That's well impressive. Wish that was my GW history, but mine has a few more red arrows. :(

    This forum isn't always a good barometer of the masses tbh. Some of the scores on here are usually fairly insane.

    In my best season I remember constantly looking at the forum here each week and thinking I'd had a woeful week reading the scores.

    Yeah as Lemlin said, the forum tends to stick together, we read the same opinions/tips so tend to have similar teams. This week seems to be one that the forum average far outscored the non-forum players. I got 64 which was bad on here, but beat everyone else in my money league by 15

    Sterling starts.

    Phew.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,683 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Liverpool v QPR: Mignolet, Johnson, Lovren, Skrtel, Enrique, Gerrard, Henderson, Sterling, Lallana, Can, Balotelli.

    A Liverpool win to nil with Sterling involved would be perfect.

    Incorrect.

    Lovren for Toure, Enrique for Moreno and Can for Coutinho.

    Must have used wrong source:o

    Apologies. Should have left it to the pros.

    Hendo with the role in the hole it would appear

    Could be Gerrard. Can is a defensive midfielder

    McCarthy keeps nets for QPR btw. Tho Green doesnt even make the bench so injured you'd have to presume

    Interesting, another 4.0 keeper in the frame. Have him in Ultimate already, but could figure in wildcard plans later in the season if he keeps a place.

    Rio dropped also

    Gerrard is a defensive mid these days. He gets pretty much all his fpl points from set pieces. Can and Hendo may play side-by-side (ahead of Gerrard), taking turns getting forward (Can is actually pretty good in this regard)

    Wasn't Gerrard pushed up into the hole for the last 15/20 mins of the last game? I can't remember where I heard or saw, might have been Second Captains podcast.

    Rogers pushed Gerrard forward against WBA and Liverpool looked much better. He was able to bring Mario into the game. You're probably right that he'll play dm but it would be very interesting if he's playing in a more attacking role


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,846 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    Moreno out of my team from nxt week. altho happy he doesn't start as dummett comes in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,022 ✭✭✭jamesbere


    On 35 atm but with Sakho vc I'll get another 12 on top of that. Shawcross cs today and sterling with a goal will do nicely and di maria and falcao to do the business tomorrow. Only dropped 40k so might make a jump this week

    I wouldn't say he was pushed up that much. Lucas came on to take up the role as the most defensive mid, Gerrard pushed up a bit alongside Hendo and both were getting forward at times. I honestly can't see Gerrards quarterback role changing any time soon tho


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    3-5-2 for QPR it appears. Good news for those with Liverpool players.


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


    I really need a quiet day from sterling here.

    Yeah I've lumped on liverpool minus 1 so you can take that as an indication of how much damage I think Liverpool can do.

    Players like Sterling, Henderson and Gerrard players you would be happy to have, Balotelli maybe too.

    Anyone have the QPR starting eleven?
