    57 (-4) with Bellerin and Ozil to go tomorrow.

    Projected rise from 277k to 233k. Woo. :rolleyes:

    59 with Bellerin, Sanchez and Costa to play.

    Unless Ozil rips the piss and Sanchez does nothing, I'll catch up at least 20 points on my cash league leader (who is 100 points ahead). He'd Mahrez benched, and only has Ozil left.

    If Costa and Sanchez run riot, it might yet be game changing week for me.

    bench: Hennessey, PVA, Defo, Daniels and I pansied out on benching payet for Defoe. The trolling continues.

    ouch! My main rival left Mahrez, Gomes and Dann on the bench which hurt him a lot. He has Ozil and Ivan to play tomorrow so I'm hoping I get my reward in plumping for Sanchez and DDG. Huth was a godsend and a big shout to make in the gw so was thrilled with it obviously but I'm still dissapointed I didn't get my CS there with everyone armbanding on the Kun/Kane bandwagon! ;)

    I really need Arsenal to concede plus an Ozil no show with Sanchez to run riot tomorrow, too much to ask for?

    Was Firmino a misclick or something? I would think a lot of us have Leicester points on the bench this week very frustrating! In the last 3 weeks I have had Ivan with 12 points, Alli 13, Antonio 11 and now Mahrez with 14 stupid bloody game! Naturally this week I in FSA League I am up against someone with Mahrez first sub and a 0 minuter today.

    I wasn't sure who to bench last night, and said i would look at it again this morning, but got distracted.

    Payet, Ali, Ozil, Sanchez and Firmino
    Aguero, Kane and Valencia.

    Valencia had like 38 point in the previous 5 games - so he was bang in form.
    Ali is in form
    Aguero/Kane in form
    That left me picking 3 from Sanchez/Ozil, Payet and Firmino.

    Easy to look back and say should have bench Payet or Valencia - but given his form i don't see it as that black/white. I have same problem next GW with west ham playing a leaking Norwich.

    I also thought that Ali would either start or not play at all, coming on in second half (just as Firmino scored) was a bit of a kick in the teeth.

    I would imagine Alli stung a lot of people like that I was so annoyed when he came on!

    Not for me, Finn Harps CL opponent has him captained whereas I have Sanchez captained.

    The leader in one of my leagues had Huth third sub. Brought Rose in this week...didn't play. Sagna second sub...didn't play. Hello 16 points. Jammy git.

    I can't describe the anger I would have.

    39 with Bellerin and Sanchez to play,a very meh day today.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    40 with 3 to play tomorrow.

    Captaining Kane was a mistake but it only cost me a few points really as the armband was on Aguero up until last night.

    If Arsenal keep a clean sheet and Ozil knocks in a goal or two tomorrow I'll be happy!

    That's up to 52 (-4) now with bonus points. Not too bad after all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    55 pts with ozil sanchez and Daniels to go. Very happy with that. Lukaku with 9 a nice bonus still find it hard to believe the amount of people that decided to sell him this week particularly before the press conferences on Friday. Was at the Liverpool game and was going to bring in firmino because of this. I'd have benched mahrez if I'd brought in firmino so can't complain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    Just realised Sagna did not play and my missus' has Huth coming in for him. She's currently away for work and I try to help her manage her team for the best. Well she should be something like 60 pts ahead of me now and after reaching FSA league 2 from the Qualifying league last year, she's fighting for league 1 promotion now.

    Maybe I should ask her for advice :pac: :rolleyes:...

    What did the press conference said? Latest I've been aware of was 50/50 call and featured in the last team training of the week. Was it said he was expected to start? Alli was supposed to and did not (though he managed an assist).

    He said Lukaku was moving a lot better this was the day before Thursday and that he was very hopeful he would train on friday to prove his fitness. Also that Lukaku doesn't like to miss games. He was either going to start or not be involved at all imo. I said it at the time but I felt a lot of people made the decision to sell based on price changes .

    Totally missed that. I didn't sell and would have put him ahead of Payet had I got that piece of information.

    Shout out to the legendary Ben Davies today with a start. Every second game baby :cool:

    I was away with limited Internet coverage otherwise I'd have linked the quotes yesterday. No use to you now unfortunately.

    49 points and a small green arrow to 216k. Sanchez and Bellerin left. Really want this season to end now. I don't think I've had a single week this season where I've felt everything has gone right. I've always been left ruing one or more decisions. At least I still have all my chips in play and they might help get back in to the top 100k by the end.

    As close to blasphemy as possible on this forum. Mr P won't be happy.

    vardy could have had a massive score today!
    leicster are an attacking team gunning for the title
    after next week I'm going to have to start captaining him or mahrez!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,262 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    46 points and a 2k rise to 182k with Sanchez and Bellerin to go. Really pissed off at Wanyama. Brought him in specifically for GW30 and he goes and gets himself sent off yet again and will miss the very gameweek I need him.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 689 ✭✭✭Torricelli


    Dropped 5k back to 16k with 39. Not as bad as I was expecting with Mahrez on the bench.

    Ozil, Sanchez, Bellerin and Courtois to play.

    Yeah well... have also to acknowledge the fact I've been "distracted" by the rugby these last couple of days. On the bright side I have him for WB at home next week before he makes way for Vardy.
