    A massive 64 points this week and up 800k for the GW to 553k :D

    Pelle the hero today with 13 and Ruddy got 5 including a legendary bonus point.

    Imagine if Silva had played. It shows just how stacked things are. I'm very pleased with the week it's fair to say :)

    My jammy 53 sees me jump from 876k to 564k. That's my first time to crack 50 this season, mainly thanks to my bench contributing 17 points, as Dawson, Westwood and Martin came in for Gomez, Muniesa and Silva.

    I was set to transfer Martin out on Friday but with the Gomez rumours I cut Ward instead to give some extra bench cover.

    Plenty issues though with the above trio that missed out, plus Benteke.

    was looking through some of leagues, in a one shot league (no transfers allowed), a chap has OR of 1,248, and the team that he plays with normally is ranked in 30k.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,068 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    46 (-4) fairly poor on here but getting a bit more confident in my team.

    Still floating about the 1M mark.

    I'll end up on 46 pts and may still get a small green arrow.
    Indeed. Up from 125k to 116k. Steady around the 100k mark for 4 GWs now.

    46 gives me my first millionaire's club of the season. Up though from 143k to 133k.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,902 ✭✭✭MagicIRL


    63 for the week. Would've been 73 but Hazard was on the bench :pac:

    In to 144k overall. Need to make a transfer or two next week though... *cough* Sanchez *cough*

    That's a brilliant start, I've had five straight GWs in the millionaire club

    47 (-4) sees me at 496k.

    Badly let down by my defence!! Would have been a very good week otherwise.

    2 points from Kolotav, Darmian & Bellerin. (Gomez as a sub)

    Any suggestions?

    Gomez to a WBA defender. I'm probably trebling up on WC

    A 47 yesterday brought me to the heady heights of just over 20000
    Gained just 1 more point today and have dropped to 52784


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars

    Up nearly 150k to 308k.

    Highest of the season so far.

    Will take that and run.

    Im behind you:pac: up 300k places to 320k


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    63 points all in.

    Absolutely delighted with that considering I got nothing from Kolarov and Silva and Muniesa didn't play. I got lucky that O'Shea didn't play against Bournemouth as it meant Martin came in instead, but considering I missed out on Martin's points for his first 2 goals of the season when he was on my bench I don't give a **** to be honest.

    Up to 118k now and more importantly have cut the lead in my main private league from about 50 odd points to 3 points in a matter of weeks. Quite happy with my squad as things stand, though Muniesa and O'Shea need to go. When Sanchez and Aguero click I'll be laughing as they're huge differentials in my main leagues.

    You hanging tough with Sanchez so? I'm considering emptying my bank at last and having both the above and Hazard for a while. Faith in the inevitable return of the big hitters or serious case of denial!??

    I've got 53 all in. Had nothing from Kolarov, and Gomez/Silva were replaced by Wanyama and Martin :D topped 2 of my private leagues and in the top 200k now.

    Yeah, I'm gonna stick with him. To be honest it's a case of 1) knowing it's going to turn for him at some stage and 2) there not being a great need for the funds.

    Look at the top 20 midfield points scorers this season - Mahrez, Payet, Barkley, Yaya, Ayew, Mata, Holohan, Redmond, Fernandinho, Sako, Tadic, Kouyate, Albrighton, Silva, Mane, Pedro, Noble, Morrison, Chadli and Lens. I have Sanchez, Mahrez, Pedro and Silva in midfield along with Fletcher as filler. Aside from Payet and Mata, there's no one in that list that takes my fancy. Payet has been excellent so far, but for some reason he doesn't really interest me over Sanchez and I'm not losing enough ground without him to need to get him in. Same goes for Mata, and United's fixtures turn for the worst after next week.

    I've watched a lot of Alexis so far this season and I'm fully convinced it's a matter of time before he starts exploding. Admittedly I didn't see the game yesterday, but he hit the post against Liverpool, should have had an assist against Newcastle only for Walcott had one of the worst misses in Premier League history and Alexis was denied by a good save from Krul in the box, he also could have had a double figure haul against Stoke only for the woodwork and an excellent display of goalkeeping. It'll come. When it happens I'd much rather have that £11m player already in then try to be scrambling and scraping and making 2 or 3 moves to get on him. It might be a different story if I wasn't doing well, but as I said above there's no reason for me not to stick with him as things stand.

    It's been the same story for Sanchez since January. Tons of touches in the box, takes lots of pot shots, doesn't translate it into points enough. Money doesn't matter at this point, but I'm hoping lots of people keep him out of fear instead of moving to players that are hogging their teams attacking points like Payet, Barkley, Mata, etc.

    Green all the way.
    Up to 3rd in both the Boards FSA leagues I'm in.
    309
    OR 35k
    A week where my 3 benchers get me 12.
    Mane still doing it.
    Kun gets me 10
    D needs work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,252 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Up 200k from 1.8 million to 1.6 million with 46 points. Russell Martin coming to the rescue with his 3rd goal of the season. Slowly but surely getting there.
