    Just need Costa to get double Hazards score and I will be just about ok.

    10 players and an 8pt hit, cannot believe I may escape getting mullered in my mini league.

    20(-8) before austin bps added, with hazard,tadic,aguero and captain costa to go
    could do with hazard and costa running riot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,321 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Costa to be booked and off before the 60 minute mark would be nice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,321 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Captain Welbeck today
    31 from 6

    Azpilicueta, Hazard, Costa (C), Auguero and Lampard to go

    :confused:


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


    34. 5 to go. Nice showing from Diego and I'll be well happy with this week.

    Did someone say rooney got injured? How did falcao get on will be be starting soon?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭G1032


    Oh God help me. I'm going to plummet down the rankings again.

    33(-4) from 8. Baines, Fabregas and Aguero to play. Captain was Rooney.

    I have no subs left if Baines misses out. Coloccini and Duff missed out.

    I'm all out of ideas about how to halt my slide. Transfer for next week already made for me with the ADM injury

    Unless Diego Costa goes wild, I don't think you'll plummet down the rankings with that score. You'll drop, but not many high scores today so I don't think the drop should be too bad.

    If your other 7 attackers are playing, you could leave the ADM transfer until the following GW and get rid of one of your non playing defenders (if you don't want to take a hit). ADM unlikely to drop more than 0.1 before the next deadline. Having said that all 3 of those defenders could return soon, and we don't know the full extent of ADM's injury yet.

    I think your panicking a bit too much. You've had a below average week (probably a few of them in a row) and you have a few injury problems but there's a helluva long way to go yet and everybody hits a patch like this at some stage over the season.

    Have been on a bit of a stagnant run myself the past while and my wildcard 2 GWs ago hasn't really re-invigorate things. On 27 pre BPs this week with Costa (c), Hazard and Aguero to go. Quite happy with my ranking at this stage though and hope to move up the rankings over xmas.

    23 from 5. Costa hatrick please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,029 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    Although i have costa, a 2 pointer from him, and chelsea conceding would be good. Then for Aguero to run wild tomorrow.
    most my rivals have him captained over Aguero.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,256 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Rob Green. Jaysus. Buyers remorse after 5 minutes.

    Austin and Bony (c) with the vast majority of my points. 30 pre-bonus with Clyne, Ivan, Hazard, Faregas and Aguero to go.

    A fiver on Costa for 2 or more goals but hoping my 3 chelsea lads realize they don't need Costa and score all around them!!!

    Wow! Major ground to be made for you this week!


    19 (-8) from 7 here. Need Costa (C) to score 5 goals to ease the pain. At least It'd feel better to be 20/30 pts down with 60 pts than with 20.

    A lot of players still to play. A lot of Aguero and Costa Captainers out there :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭G1032


    @qwabercd and KevIRL

    Ya. Maybe you're right. A lot depends on Costa I suppose.

    ADM was on the chopping block anyway and if Hazard gets through the game this evening uninjured I'll be doing the transfer tonight. No cash to play with for that transfer.

    willian hits the post


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,321 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Willian strikes the post, would've been Haz assist.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,915 ✭✭✭✭menoscemo


    It's unusual that the ESPs haven't even been added to the Arsenal game yet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,532 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Esp added. Notable bps

    Ings 3
    Austin 2
    Siggy 2
    Rooney 2
    Bony 1


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


    Sunderland defending pretty well.

    Costa lucky there could have gotten a red


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


    Costa very very lucky not to get at least a yellow for his reaction to an o Shea tackle that also deserved yellow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,532 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    HT 0-0


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Can't believe Costa wasn't booked. That sort of thing usually fires him up as well :(

    I have him, but he really should have been sent off. That said, Kevin Friend has given nothing against Chelsea this half.

    I think it should have been red. Looked to me like be kicked O'Shea. I'd have to see it again but that was my initial reaction


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    I doubt there could be retrospective action since Friend saw it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,321 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    The ref has him in his fantasy team, yes that must be it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭G1032


    Just saw the Costa incident again. Definite red. Bullsh!t.

    I mean that's the kind of stuff that makes or breaks weeks like this. All that captained him getting double minus points.

    He'll go on now to score a couple or more goals. Huge huge points swing for so many if he does.

    Two point yellow card for Austin in the end. Collins, Kouyate, and Tomkins all got 2 baps. Collins at 4.5m would be very interesting if he was nailed; Cresswell is the standout pick of course.
