    Thank fook for Benteke...might actually make it to 40 this week.


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


    That was the perfect goal, as I have Hendo as Bentekkers captain. On set to get 50 - 60 points this week. Played my wildcard so next week had better be a stormer. >_<


  • Registered Users Posts: 42,084 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    I've broken the 50 point barrier for the season at long last.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,107 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    I can safely say that's the first time I've ever cheered a Liverpool goal. It was a proper jump off seat shout.

    Capt Suarez was always bitter sweet but it's been such a bad start that Tekkers got pure joy.

    I feel dirty and am off for a shower now...

    I'm still waiting on my first goal. Up to 7 assists though

    Benteke first goal and Liverpool to win at 4/1 is the only thing keeping my spirits up. :(

    Been dreading this all weekend.

    Bloody offside as fook too.

    Hazard and Rooney were used as examples as Hazard topped GW1 poll and Rooney topped GW2 (of those that had played). "Sensible" players tend to be successful and they tend to go with the most popular picks most of the time.

    Wasn't meant to be haughty, I don't consider myself a "sensible" player but I wish I was.
    And I had neither captained myself.
    Payet, Ayew & Gomis weren't on the radar for the "sensible" players in GW2. They were barely mentioned on the captain thread and certainly not by the better players afaik.
    PARlance, just to be sure and to be clear, it was not a dig at you at all!

    And I'm sure you're as sensible a player as I am or as most of us are in here :pac:.

    I guess I reacted on a detail then. My point was that a Rooney GW1 (C) and a Benteke GW2 (C) were as (if not more, particularly for this GW) sensible as Hazard GW1 (C) & Rooney GW2 (C). And I'm not saying that because they were my choices (I actually convinced my missus to go for Payet considering her team). 'Cause you may have noticed but I've quite a reputation in here to go safe and follow the crowd (generally the FFS (C) poll one) for my (C) picks :pac:...

    I'd really like Liverpool to concede.

    Ritchie to score. Then Benteke to knock in another one or two.

    Yeah that'd be nice.

    Followed by Henderson and Clyne red cards. Yes.

    Gomez goal and cs with a Benteke yellow would be better.


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


    Not sure I'll keep benteke much like last season Liverpool look average enough going forward.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,249 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    It's amazing how Lallana was a class FF player two years ago, but totally absent in this very attacking performance from Liverpool.

    Edit - of course he appears as soon as I post that.

    I thought he'd suffer at Pool like Charlie Adam did. Both those lads came from clubs where the entire team was built around them and making the most of their talents.

    At Liverpool, they're just another midfielder.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    finally some fantasy luck - clyne should of lost clean sheet in first few mins and benteke goal prob should have been offside. happy enough at ht

    I realllly hope they don't, I've Mignolet in goals. Hoping for a clean sheet!!

    Have Hendo on too, So nice assist.

    Yeah he's gone in the WC for me.
    Another goal here as a parting gift would be nice though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,538 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Hendo coming off according to commentary.

    Yep injury


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


    Wtf Hendo


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,047 ✭✭✭✭CSF

    Je t'aime Iroced :)
    Je t'aime.

    Great capt picks. I think we were kinda in agreement, I didn't mean to isolate sensible lads like us who went for Rooney & Benteke ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,593 ✭✭✭MarkSRFC21


    Ffs Henderson. I knew I'd regret making my transfers so early. Hope it's just a precaution


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,839 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    My only pool player off, sigh


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


    I hate pre 60 min subs so much, could cost me a H2H as well


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,201 ✭✭✭jamesbondings


    even henderson coming off STILL makes him my highest scorer ofthe week.....that shows how sh!te my gw has been....21 from 10 mignolet still on the pitch fml


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭GetWithIt


    Never rated Rodgers as a FF manager. That's not how you lock in the clean sheet point for Henderson.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,779 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Well, that's yet another kick in the nuts.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,172 ✭✭✭✭km79


    would assume benteke is on pens now.......
