Should be 82 after BPs with 1 to come off the bench. Ayew and Sanchez to go.

Pellé and Payet have been absolute heroes since I brought them in last GW. Aguero was the only other scorer for me. Obviously very happy with the GW but could have been even better... brought in Berahino over Vardy, Ighalo, Murray and started Guzan over Gomes. Probable points hit coming to work in KDB and sort defensive issues.

Edit: Also unhappy at the Stoke and Palace clean sheets. Had Ward and still have Muniesa from GW4 WC but they got injured and dropped respectively. Part of the game obviously but it's frustrating all the same.

72 with Sanchez and Gomis to go. Delighted with Aguero finally exploding but I have to say I'm not all that happy to be honest. My team needs a lot of work (Evans, Mahrez, Pedro and Gomis all worrying) and I've only 1 FT. That's not to mention the international break makes it extremely risky to make early changes and it's tough in terms of being able to balance that with price drops of players I want to sell/rises of players I want to buy.

66 with Naughton, Davies, Sanchez, Gomis and Martial to play Raging about the Palace CS. Have McCarthy and knew he'd be a doubt but was close to bringing in Dann. Ah well

91 (-8) with a United trio of DDG, Darmian & Martial left. A United CS would go a long way to getting me a real 100.

#FPL pain for... The 4 who triple captained Lens
The 54k who benched Cabaye
And the 255k who captained Mahrez

The reason they lost is basically cause they never get penalties, and he said that about 3 times.

He also said he won't quit, but the club can sack him,
Mention decisions going against him in CL
Says they will get top 4
Team low on confidence

Obv will get in trouble with FA about his rant - 7 mins

Bla Bla Bla

Biggest joke ever by Mourinho. Southampton should have got two penalties, whilst Chelsea had one shout for a penalty which was more a dive by Falcao. They're lucky they even have 8 points from that Arsenal game.

Anyways, sorry for going OT! Why are the bps always so late coming up on the site these days?!

71 with Ayew, Cech and Martial to go, should have another 13 in bonus points, great week so far considering I only had eleven(playing) players

Had a quick look through the top 50 there - think it was just two had aguero and both had him captain -

Hope they enjoyed their 7 weeks of fame

Transfered in Silva for toure at a -4 hit. Then forgot to put him in my team, thank god Mahrez didn't play so my mistake shouldn't go punished.

The BAPS are in!

97 with 2 to come off the bench & De Gea, Bellerin & Sanchez to play! Surely break 100 for the GW!!

96 points with Dier, Sanchez and Martial to go.

Some change from 24 (-4) last week. Should make up the ground I lost.

I don't think I've ever had a wildcard as successful as that.

The guy who is second in my work league has 6 points.

Another who was 12th out of 32 in another league has 3, that one seems to be dead now right enough but the first is active.

Fair play lads, some fantastic scores on here, great to see after the poor start as well! Will be a lot in the 100 club come Monday. Need 30 from 4 to break into it myself but with Sanchez & Martial still to play I'm still holding a bit of hope!

Strange that in a GW with a 33 point average so far, a score of 97 is only 16k for the week!!

Number 1 was on roughly same amount of points as me, will be interesting to see where he ends up: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/2199848/event-history/8/

And I wonder how far this lad will fall: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/1113295/event-history/8/
