Nah. I gave up already.

Had one shot and missed it anyway.

Inspector Coptoor · 15-08-2015 02:33PM

Coleman assist and clean sheet
Very welcome

Nothing to suggest before the season that Barkley would be a good FPL pick. Not worried, only casuals will have him

Yeah but that's a bit misleading since they were mostly in different leagues.

Southampton were in the Championship in 2005/06, 2006/07, 2007/08, 2008/09 and 2011/12

They were in League 1 in 2009/10 and 2010/2011

Everton were in the Premier League each of those seasons

Of course there was!

It was **** on the pot or get off time!

GetWithIt · 15-08-2015 02:37PM

Starting to look like one of those weeks where I need the captain to dig me out of a hole.

He had two goals all last season. He's not a goal scorer. He never was.

I know. It is one of those funny stats.

Last 6 meetings Everton failed to win anyway.

FT Southampton 0-3 Everton

I should have paid more attention when I watched him score against Arsenal in the Asia Trophy cup... I'm looking at Everton's injury list and he might be threatened in a few weeks time for his place, however.

Iused2likebusts · 15-08-2015 02:40PM

5 from 3 or if u include last week I'm on 32 from 14. Not feeling as calm as I was last week. Lots of my players are going to be in danger of dropping in value.

FutureGuy · 15-08-2015 02:40PM

As usual, lots of rivals decided that Coleman was a good pick. Don't mind tbe horror fixtures or his reduced attacking output or his poor clean sheet record away (1 in last 17).

He's Irish. That's what truly matters!

The form book is not being read at all.

Dubliner28 · 15-08-2015 02:41PM

Another poor week captain wise. Had Pelle today.
Hopefully my midfielders can get me up over the 40point mark

Benimar · 15-08-2015 02:41PM

Finished in the top 1k last year. Counting my captain as 2 players I have 33 from 16 players so far this season. Sweet Jesus!

The worst thing is I have no idea how to stop the rot.

Need a goal, assist or CS badly just to stop a rage WC. Never had a run like this before.

Only four playing today, hoping for some fireworks from Captain Kane and Sakho. A nice 0-1 Everton would be a good start

I'll take it! Now come on Harold, hatty in a 4-3 loss

internet_user · 15-08-2015 02:42PM

At least Targett didn't end up with -points, ill take that

Shedite27 · 15-08-2015 02:43PM

Everton have some players that would definitely be on the watch list but their fixtures are horrible for the next while...
Man City (H)
Spurs (A)
Chelsea (H)
Swansea (A)
West Brom (A)
Liverpool (H)
Man Utd (H)
Arsenal (A)

It could be a decent week to WC, there'll be drops a plenty and Lukaku, Barkely and Coleman should rise 0.2 from that display. If a few more that did half decent in GW1 perform I'm WC'ing.

Had no intention 2 hours ago

Change of position this season. Spent last season wide left.

Way too early to be worrying, I'm in the same boat

As an Everton fan we are so unpredictable. Look at last week. Awful. This week brilliant. Could easily beat City and lose to West Brom in that run. Head saying to stay away from any Everton player for another GW or two even doh I want to bring in Rom, he's to hot and cold

spock. · 15-08-2015 02:48PM

5 from 3 uugghh

manual_man · 15-08-2015 02:50PM

2 from 2. Adrian, Payet, Ayew, Alder, Kane now come on boys

Rikand · 15-08-2015 02:57PM

1 played yesterday.
3 playing today.

I'm probably going to be last in the world after today

It has popped into my head I've 2 f.ts so could probably make 3 transfers or even 4 if needed. I really want sancheZ and aguero in.

Thinking the same. Have 2FTs so could have a mini WC for -8, maybe even only -4. Will be watching prices closely.
