As usual a week which promised so much fails to follow through.
Was planning to bank but Depay needs to go...

On for 2!!

Result. Didn't expect that. I only went for him because Darmian was .1 more.

Won't they get 2 each

You are right. From my favourite hyperlink...

"If there is a tie for second place, Player 1 will receive 3 points and Players 2 and 3 will receive 2 points each."

That's what i had initially thought but doubted it.

Come in lads. Split it!!

It's one each if more than on player gets 3 points and 2 otherwise. Them tying would net me four points, which would be very nice.

47 before Gomis points. End of the road for Depay.

I can see him dropping like a stone. 10 points from four games yet owned by 23% of players.

He'll probably only drop 0.1 this week. The way the system works makes it very easy for lowly owned players to rise and fall in value i.e. 11% NTO for fall and 47K NTI for rise.

Highly owned players will have slower NTI thus slower rises but also requires 11% out for a 0.1 fall thus require large transfers out in order to fall. This is the reason the likes of Rooney, Hazard and Kane are slow to fall. He is 32k from a fall right now. He will then require another 69K for a second fall. It could happen over the break though but his high ownership will protect him for a while. He's out for me though sooner rather than later, too many good midfield options this year to persist with someone who is not performing.

Sinclair a likely beneficiary? Seems like a good way to fund alot of things in your team.

I'd imagine Ayew will be the biggest beneficiary with a nice tie against Watford up next. He's also joint second highest scoring mid now which will see in transfers in surge as many people just make transfers based on highest point scorers without looking at any other information.

Oh yeah, he didn't even come into my thoughts as I already have him. Definitely makes more sense though.

100k more transfers doesn't seem unreasonable for someone who is owned by 800k of players.

The one thing that may save him is that people have Coutinho and Hazard who they may ship first.

I'm going to transfer out Hazard. Something is not right at Chelsea so will bring him back in once he gets motoring again. Hopefully at a much cheaper price.

How did Mata play besides the goal today? As I said last week, he for me looked United's best threat. Will check out the highlights from today on MoTD2 later.

29. Lovely jubbly.

Could've had a monster week had I started Ayew. Oh well. Hindsight is great

Who would have been benched if it hadn't been Ayew?

51. No hits. Last minute changes on wilcard of sagna and gomis out for benteke and kolorov cost me bout 12 point but hopefully they make that back.

56 (-4) United & Liverpool finally conceding will see me gain a lot of places, was bottom of my league until yesterday.
