    Delighted given the week that was in it...

    When Gomez subs in for Bellerin I'll be on 29 with Myhill and Sterling to go. But as things stand I'm on 18 with a rank of 2.4 million :o

    The only consolation is that so far there haven't been any huge scores from high ownership players that I don't have. If Kun stays quiet tomorrow and I end up mid-thirties, I'll take it and run after Saturday's horror show.

    Very close call to be honest. Felt both would concede.

    Yeah. I know it was close. But I'll be honest and admit I didn't give it muchthough so sure was i that my three defs were starters. I moved fletcher off first sub without really paying attention.

    Such are the 50/50s that separate a good week from a great one.

    Come on Sergio you beautiful man.

    Average week here but no one made any big ground, a lot of high scores due to some people already blowing their booster chips. A lot of leaders in some of my leagues have already used the good chips and others have used the all out attack to no effect at all. With this in mind gw scoring and ranking will be very skewed so not to bothered about ranking this week. Main this is to win H2H games in such a week and it looks like i have managed that so I'm somewhat happy with things.

    In fairness Kev if you have 5 assists you're doing well for the week.

    Absolutely, the sad face is for the hurling. Odd to have no goals from 10 players played all the same, doesn't happen a lot.

    I'd see that as decent. Should keep you in the top 1 million at least.

    Yeah, but i really don't think rankings matter so much this week as so many people wasted their boosters that would be better utilized at another time. The rankings are definitely skewed and will balance out in another gameweek

    27 with Sterling to go.

    A goal would actually be huge.

    I know the players I want now though. It's just whether I need to wildcard now or not.

    35 with Sterling still to play.

    It was looking grim when Bellerin didn't play but this was the silverlining that allowed Gomez to sub for him thankfully. Oxford on the bench for a -1 Coates though :(

    This was a horrible week that we should all quietly sweep under the carpet.

    16 points with Sterling to go. A disastrous start.

    How?

    Rooney, Costa, Benteke, Fab, Hazard, Ivan, Walcott etc..... didn't perform - how can you possibly know who you want, the logic you used setting up your team 48 hours ago should still hold.

    The average points is 27, and like others said it's skewed because of chips being used. therefore no matter how bad you did - you not that far off anyone. It's not as if the rest of us got 60+ points and you only got 20.

    Using your WC now is a waste of time, because imo if you know the team you want based on the matches this weekend, you'll want to change your team in 2/3 weeks time.

    39, rank at 220k or so. Hoping Kolarov will bring some extra points tomorrow.

    No. Depending on the score but a 16-20 point hit would still leave you better off than starting again

    Your points are spot on.

    It's whether I want 4 or 5 players in straight away, or i just bite the bullet and change.

    Also, Walcott isn't worth the hassle longterm, Sanchez and Aguero are back quicker than we probably guessed, and also I've no keeper next week!
