    Disappointing week. 27 points. But there's bound to be the odd back week throughout the season, and seems like if it was going to be any week, this wasn't a back week to have it!

    Dropped 6k, but have 3 points to come off the bench, and Forster and Pelle to go tomorrow, so may claw a little bit of that back yet.

    Hoping a lot of the casuals wont have too many villa/Southampton players. We'll all make serious gains tomorrow :)

    Not if it's 1-1 with Gabby and Cork getting the goals ;)
    With Villas half decent start and Southamptons great run I'd say casuals will be just as involved.

    Tadic will finally get a penalty and Guzan will end up saving the frigging thing :(

    I need 18 points from Clyne, Tadic and Pelle to win my FSA match in what is my 3rd vs his 2nd place

    This kind of goal is long overdue.

    Anyone have any stats on Forster's average kick out distance?

    Wind speed and direction for tomorrow would also be useful.

    That scenario would win my H2H for me but I really don't want it. Trailing a guy with a 2.9 GW ranking :(
    Guzan is my differential, we both have Tadic & Pelle. I'd happily that the loss if it meant my GW was redeemed in some way.

    Looking forward to tonight. It's the first time I have had Monday night players in ages, perhaps even this season iirc.

    I'm not too bothered about how Forster does. Most people have a Saints defender and a lot, including my key rival, have doubled up.

    A couple of goals from Pelle would be nice as a parting gift though. Although I'm not sure I'd still take him out if he scores well tonight because the City defence has looked anything but solid.

    I got rid of Clyne for Baines in GW9. I really need Southampton to concede but I'm doubtful they will.
    A couple of goals from Pelle would indeed be nice and sure if Wanyama wants to chip in with an assist or two that'd do the finest.

    Is it odd to be hoping for a yellow card for one of your own players (Pelle)? I want to ship him out and a suspension would give me less buyers remorse.

    Anyone think its worth bringing in Vlaar in UFPL for a 1 point defender? Lambert said he is unlikely to feature but he might make a miraculous recovery during the day!

    Clyne and Pelle to play tonight. I hope Pelle gets back his form - no shots on goals in his last 3 games if I remember correctly.

    He's still a big differential this week and there is not point in not having Costa if I cannot make it count on nights like this.

    That came up here the other day already. I'd be raging beyond belief if somebody did that to me. On the other had the guy ha achieved some level of fame for himself, I wonder is he like one of those guys who packs his team with DGW players when there are only a couple of games on the first day in order to be number 1 in the world.:P


    Like many I've got Pelle and Clyne tonight. I need for them to outscore Davis and Vlaar (both doubts) by 4 points to win my FSA premier league match with Jeju. To be honest that's my main focus tonight.

    He must have cheated on the wife, then left his team open on the computer after she found out!

    I have a below average score this week and have only dropped 500 places from 1.5k to 2k overall.

    I am expecting a whole lot worse though with the Southampton players and some auto subs to kick-in

    GW12 just end please

    That'd still be way too harsh a revenge surely!! She could take the house, kids, half his money but DON'T MESS WITH HIS FPL TEAM!! :D

    Yeah, I've got the Pelle, Tadic, Bertrand trio and I might hang on Pelle for a bit yet. Fair enough, Man City will be a relatively tough game, but then playing against Arsenal and Utd's defences won't be that bad. Tadic is likely to be first for the chop of the three.

    Worth having a read of the stickys on each forum to make sure you aren't doing anything bold!

    Absolutely. Its handy having access to all that info but some times its hard to figure what you actually want to look for which is basically all covered in the two articles! For less than 50c a week its hard to go wrong.
