Starc 64 from 41 ballsOpen Controls
Fellaini protection removed.. sh!t
Open Controls
How what when why
Open Controls
why they protected him ?
bdw, i should listened you for mata and fellaini, now im regreting and loosing my h2h with 2 ptsOpen Controlsa combo of michu rising abnormally fast.. puncheon's rise stalling and fellaini prob rising tomorrow is skewing up my transfer plans
Open Controls
Ok, any -4 on teams with double GW is for free, so do we reckon season keepers from Sunderland or Reading ? Shorey for example ?
Open ControlsShorey is tempting.. huge attackin threat so dont mind playin him most weeks if reqd cause of other injuries
Open Controls- Open Controls
- Open Controls
Sir Nicky Shorey = Mini Baines
More crosses and more corners than anyone in the last 6 gw's.Open Controls
Open Controls
Feeling bored so, I put this together
Why do ppl think that Man City/Man Utd players won't do well against each other?
Don't derbies often generate many goals and therefore many attacking points? This yr's big(imo) derbies have had 3.5 goals per match, all of them had at least 3 goals for that fact except these 4 matches.
Liverpool vs Arsenal 0-2
Chelsea vs Liverpool 1-1
Chelsea vs Mancity 0-0
Tottenham vs Liverpool 2-1
And recent matches between Man City and Man Utd (2011-2012) hav had big scores too:
Community Shield: Man City 2-3 Man Utd (2011)
FA Cup: Man City 2-3 Man Utd (2012)
League: Man Utd 1-6 Man City (2011)
Man City 1-0 Man Utd (2012)
That is all, correct any mistakes if u see anyOpen Controls
the thing is what are we expecting
manu after their horrendous defensive show last week will be all for defence
mancity are finding it difficult to score big on a regular basis
this is a recipe for a 2-1 max score
id say the game will end 0-0 or 1-0Open ControlsDoubt Man Utd will be more defensive, they'll be tighter no doubt but they are also scoring a lot
I know Man City are keeping clean sheets but they hav gotten 4 of they've gotten 5 out of their 6 clean sheets with Chelsea ,who was already under Benitez, the only exception.
Man City will try to play attacking football as they will fall behind if they do not win. Man Utd will also lose their lead if they don't win, and remember that SAF said they will never lose by goal dif anymore, so they (likely) won't sit back and defend after scoringOpen Controls
bullshit, pure and simple
Open Controls
Last season's game at Etihad ended 1-0 for City with a Kompany goal.
Open ControlsI know....... but look at the other scores that season
Open Controls
a) bale out for michu
b) bale out for walcott
c) maloney out for puncheonOpen Controls
A, but if you could find another way Bale is a season keeper IMO.
Open Controls
Only just got Bale this week and having place my injury curse on him, I'm bagging the 0.1m rise and getting out, probably for Walcott. I'll then get him back in a couple of weeks for the price I sold him at.
Open Controls
After DGW - Sunderland have United and Southampton away, Reading have
Arsenal Home, City away.
Tempted to bank my FT and just stick with Cueller.Open ControlsIts not if South/United are keeping CS
Open Controls
Game over.
Aus lose by 309 runs.Open Controls
could you guys sort the following in order who you reckon to delivers bigger pts return for DGW?
1. mignolet
2. shorey
3. sessegnon
4. le fondre
thanks in advanceOpen Controls

I think Kolarov is trolling us...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kur5sS3EWQs&feature=BFa&list=WL7A1687625E9759E9Open ControlsIt's laughable π
Open Controls
United Force,
did I tell you to keep Mata and play Fellaini? I should have listened to myself as I benched Fellaini for Sterling. Just sucks when one of your players is playing your favorite club :/Open ControlsYep, im loosing my H2H because of my stupidnes, lesson learned, never ever benching Fellaini, and Mata will probably go from my team, because of blank GW
Totally agree, this game is unpredictableOpen ControlsShould have known Liverpool was going to disappoint :/ The FIFA simulations I do are usually pretty accurate lol.
Open Controls
bego
cameron cuellar gibbs
santi puncheon fellaini michu bale
rvp ba
(jaask enrique demel suarez)
So many options to play this week but I still nearly did ba and demel to defoe and shorey -4
Not sure if I even have the right players on the pitch
Maybe just demel to shorey and sub cameron
enrique off the bench if bale doesn't play
thoughts?Open ControlsNastasic/Shorey is not bad strategy with defenders? Right ? Nastasic will always play in my team, and with Mancini rotation Shorey will go in my team sometime ? Good or bad plan ?
Open ControlsBloody brilliant.
Open ControlsYep - nice
Open ControlsAssuming he doesn't come on for a 20 minute cameo... which is actually quite likely.
Granted, he wasn't even on the bench this week, but it's not a foolproof plan!Open ControlsShorey 38 key passes in 11 games and 8 key passes vs man utd.. not bad to get off your bench π
Open Controls
used wildcard last GW and shipped out Tevez,Mata,Shawcross.. so far 24 pts + Ba ..
Mignolet (Tremmel)
Mertesacker,Davies,Demel (Rafael,Nelsen)
Silva,Routledge,Puncheon,Fellaini (Bale)
Van Persie,Ba (Suarez)
1FT & 0 in bank..
Should I play Mignolet (CHE & SOU) or Tremmel (NOR) ?
Silva --> Michu or Ba --> Defoe ?
why happened to Routledge? he scored twice week back and was not even on bench against Arsenal..Open ControlsPlay Mig.
Michu and Defoe looks decent am worried bout Adeboy tho ..,Open ControlsDefoe's form went bust when Adebayor started to get some game time last time around.
Open Controls
current lineup:
begovic
baines, hughes, clyne, cuellar,
mata, fellaini, michu, sterling
rvp, fletcher
subs: ruddy, ridgewell, suarez, maloney
only has 1 FT, plan to keep the transfer, or maybe use it if fletcher confirmed out of dgw..thoughts?Open Controlsruddy out for 3 months.. you should get a new goalie.. cannot trust and play Bego every week..
Open Controlsyeah i know..but i have another issue to solve first, such as injury to maloney and fletcher..plus mata also not a confirm starter anymore under benitez, and blank gw17
Open ControlsAnd miss all those Begovic away clean sheets.
Open Controlstrue indeed..i brought ruddy in after their win over united, with the plan is to play him this gw when begovic plays away at west brom..somehow after that ruddy was injured, and i were forced to play begovic instead
Open Controls
Rather than chase michu/fellaini etc in for Mata/Bale i'm thinking Gorkks to Shorey this week and keep 2 frees for next to get michu/fell etc in.. leaves me with
Mignolet
Cuellar Shorey Cameron Demel (Clyne)
Mata Cazorla Puncheon Sterling (Bale)
Rvp Ba (Suarez)
1.8 in bank
and 2 FT's for next week
good enough?Open Controls
Think i'm just gonna keep Bale. Not many midfielders worth having atm and already own Theo, Fellaini, Michu.
Open Controls+1 , I've Santi/Michu/Fella - gonna bench as I need to sort Wisdom - thinking Shorey ...
But I want to see how Ba does tonight - a lot of the Strikers seem to be struggling ( I've Rvp/Ba/Berba)Open Controlshow i wish to still have ba..transferred him out for fletcher just before the qpr game
Open Controls
Nolan. He is always in the 6 yard box looking for scraps and generally feeds well.
Open Controls
Morning fellas.
I have Bale and Suarez for this gameweek so in a bit of a pickle.
Begovic, Jaaskelainen
Baines, Cuellar, Mertesacker, Hughes, Nelsen
Bale, Silva, Fellaini, Sterling, Puncheon
Suarez, van Persie, Berbatov
1FT. 0.4
Anything fundamentally wrong?
Looking to get one more Sunderland / Reading player in if possible.Open Controlsmaybe this is the time to play with 4-4-2 and keep the FT
Open Controls
Anyone think Reading might produce more points in the DGW than Sunderland?
Open Controls
rooney to suarez was done my yours truly last week, also meaning the (c) from rvp to suarez!
so rooney 16 + rvp (C) 12 = 28
went to rvp 6 + suarez (c) 2 = 8
20 points lost
anyone else managed a worse transfer this season?Open Controls
Not a transfer but Mata -> Bale
RVP(c) -> Suarez
Michu on the bench,
And there are quite a few of us.Open Controls
Me
this GW
Rooney(C)+Mata=39
RVP(C)+Walcott=14
-25
as I did for -8
It is -33
I captained Roonpig for last two weeks as well.Open Controlsnot to mention another transfer Baines= 7 points to Cuellar 1 point. π
If it is added then it is -39 π
If I did not make any transfer and put the team as mid week, I would get (+39) this GW. Who beat me?Open Controls
Michu mata Rooney out for surez walcott fletcher
Open Controls
mine was selling bale before his 2 goals + assist against Man U
Open Controls
Ok, so Gorkss to Shorey (-4 hit) is no brainer ? Want Shorey as a season keeper on the bench (to replace Nastasic when he doesnt play)
Also have a feeling that -4 hit will be for free because of DGW of Shorey
CheersOpen ControlsThe next GW is still so damn far away.
Open Controls
Team for next gw:
Begovic
Baines Enrique SHOREY CUELLAR
A.JOHNSON Walcott Michu
RvP Jelavic Berbatov
Subs: Jaas, Clyne, B.Johnson, Bale
Any changes ye would make? Not sure who to transfer in, might hold it and captain AJ.
Jelavic or Berbatov will be going soonOpen Controlsanyone doubling up on Walcott and Santi? Already have Cazorla and fine with him, but think Arsenal will bounce back (especially away from home) and Theo is more captain material.
Open ControlsSad to say that Theo was shit last week. Cazorla not bad.
Open Controls
Arsene. Get Walcott playing up front and complete my strikeforce!
Fellaini
RVP Michu Walcott Suarez BerbatovOpen Controls+42
Open ControlsLol! That's my team too. Got Walcott for Swansea and SO disappointed.
Open Controls
You mean;
Berbatov
RVP Michu Walcott Suarez FellainiOpen Controls
Doosra, how do you do it?
Bench points, is like the worst fpl feeling ever.Open Controls
Anyone thinking of getting Gardner for the DGW. On set pieces and 2 goals in last 3 games.
Open Controls3 DGW players. I'm going to captain Sessegnon I think. Anyone else with me?
Open Controls
Why? Sunderland are beyond awful
Open ControlsThey looked good in the second half against Nor.
Open Controls
*raises hand*
Gorkss + Sess(c) hereOpen ControlsShorey here, may end in tears π
Open Controls
three for me too, was going to captain Fletcher...but too risky now. If Bale is out for more than two weeks then I'll probably get Sess and captain, but otherwise I'll stick with what I've got, have a couple of brandies and captain Mr creative himself Shorey....the sole source of assists within Reading's ranks.
Open ControlsYeah I'm captaining Sess, after this week's 1, 4 minimum will do nicely, and I think they can raise their game for Chelsea.
Open Controls
why happened to Routledge? he scored twice against WBA and was not even on bench against Arsenal..
