it's all about Kane for me now
2 goals and I'm laughing
I've been here before and it ended well

Up to a six digit overall ranking, bitches!

*weeps*

10 from 2 would normally be decent. But when 9 is from the highly captained player who actually hurts my rank and the 1 is from my really decent differential its a bit crap.

I really needed Sterling to finally deliver and with KDB benched it was a huge opportunity to gain ground. Result. 1 point each. Goodbye Raheem. Its been painful.

My overall rank is now 740k. Season has gone from limping along a bit to full blown Daniel Sturridge.

If your Daniel Sturridge, i'm Darren Gibson.

ah lads, I've been on the red arrows for the past 5 weeks or so

I don't know how to turn this around...will keep going. Need to get to the top of my private leagues again!

F1ngers · 13-12-2015 12:39AM

13(-4).
Not happy with that.

Scorpion Sting · 13-12-2015 12:48AM

29 from 5, up from 554k to 490k. Kane (c), Coutinho, Moreno, Ozil, Mahrez and Vardy left to play.

Allow me to make you feel better again this week....see above!

Souaré on my bench too but will be staying there of course...

Just sums up what a messy and completely ridiculous season this has been. Everyone's waiting for it to return to 'normal' but it just never will. So completely unpredictable and frustrating. Nothing will go right and every 50/50 decision I make goes wrong. So frustrating:mad: I'm sure things will change but I've been saying that for weeks at this stage

Right. This puts the tin hat on it for me.

A lad in my 'easy' work league (won it by couple if hundred pts last year) snuck a few points ahead of me after my car crash last week. Made up 40ish points on me, i was well clear most of the year at the top despite the awful season.

Just had a quick look at that league and the same guy has scored 78 points today and is currently on GW rank 25 in the world. This league pays out half the pot at GW20 so its not looking good as he's niw about 80points clear.

Dr. Bre · 13-12-2015 01:02AM

43 from 6 with captain to play. Very happy

Inspector Coptoor · 13-12-2015 01:16AM

Down as 28 points but have 6 more to come from Soare.

More green arrows.
Have gone from 800k to 103k in last 5 weeks or so.

wonski · 13-12-2015 01:47AM

Guess who sold Cabaye (and rightly so) this week?

Coutinho was the transfer in, but have a bad feeling already.

It was between him and Bolasie tbh.

Lights On · 13-12-2015 02:27AM

Just noticed Ake got 2bps, needed those big time today! 18 from 4 has me down to the million club again but it's early days in the GW yet.

In fairness you probably have to enter a different team/strategy in such a league, can't really enter it with your 38week team as it would require a different attitude to hits, wildcard timing, chips, money accruing etc.

Get as many points as possible usually works. I was hundreds of points clear last xmas. I'm 720k in the world and still second. This league is usually free money is the point.

I'd say the other lads in the league really feel your pain and will offer you a shoulder to cry on.:pac:

Lemlin · 13-12-2015 10:18AM

14 points has me down from 63k to 97k. Nyom will sub in though to bring me up to 26. Kane (c), Bellerin, Ozil, Coutinho, Mahrez and Vardy to go.

Mr. Guappa · 13-12-2015 10:35AM

26 from 5, and a small green arrow to 136k. Gomes, Lukaku and Ighalo were the scorers, KDB and VVD the failures. 2 FT for next GW and VVD is primed for an exit.

Kane (C), Ozil, Bellerin and Moreno today.

13-12-2015 10:50AM

Ozil being rested today and is not with the squad.

Edit - can't workout if it's true or not. I seen it on Ben Dinnery twitter feed.

Yeah all over twitter.
Would suit me reasonably well with 6 from Souare to sub in.

The leader in my main league already has Nyom coming off the bench and this would give him Ighalo too. Would be typical of the unbelievable luck he is getting all year.

Swiper the fox · 13-12-2015 11:01AM

Seems unbelievable with their injury list and no midweek match, suits me down to the ground though if true even though we'll see some nice sub ins after yesterday.

I get Simon Francis

Brings me to 16 from 6 if true. What a week

Swiper the fox · 13-12-2015 11:08AM

I'm on phone so can't do a fine tooth check, is there a reliable link for the news, I don't see it on Dinnerys twitter

IsMiseMyself · 13-12-2015 11:18AM

Omg. If Ozil is rested as well, I think I'm just going to delete my team in despair.

Dinnery hasn't tweeted it. Doubt it's true.

I've useless Mane first sub (Souare 2nd

) and captainers liable to have Lukaku vice so hope its not.

Edit. Dinnery just tweeted.

@FPL_Fly @FPLFantasyTalk @fplhints Spoke to the club on Friday. Nothing mentioned

Lemlin · 13-12-2015 11:44AM

Fantasy Football Pundits have suggested it. Dinnery asked them what their source was and they said nothing concrete, just a rumour.

It wouldn't bother me too much because I have Souare second sub and he got six.

He also tweeted though:

@FFPundits @JWWads2011 Spoke to the club on Friday. No indication. Pure speculation .... Wenger has alluded to it but nothing definite

I saw this elsewhere:

Feelers are that Ozil will be rested today against Aston Villa due to calf discomfort he suffered before the Olympiakos game #AFC

Rumours he didn't train yesterday:

No Ozil in training today. Hopefully just being rested again.

km79 · 13-12-2015 12:04PM

this week can fk off

Mr.Prodston · 13-12-2015 12:05PM

19 points from 4. Well average, innit?

Average with a red arrow though. Have plenty big guns to go yet mind.

OneColdHand · 13-12-2015 12:12PM

I don't really mind Ozil being rested. Haven't captained him, and I have Bolasie first sub.
