Olivier Giroud tops our ICT Index rankings for the Gameweek so far, courtesy of his contribution to Arsenal’s late show at the Emirates. In this week’s “Big Numbers” for members, we break down the Frenchman’s performance, whilst offering hope to those who placed the armband with Santi Cazorla. We also cast an eye on the numbers produced at the Britannia, as Wayne Rooney shifted to a midfield role, paving the way for Robin Van Perise to break his dry spell from the spot.

saving my sec WC for gw 36 , i am thinking to get 3 palyers from chelsea , spurs and city , Foster from wet
bro , and kone from wigan is that good ??Open Controls -
Have been watching something for nearly 2 hours now. Every ad break has the Southern Comfort ad in it. I hope Doosra had a royalties clause put in the contact when he made the ad 😛

This will never happen, but I just made a rough draft for an eventual DGW36 team (if all games were to be played that week). This is for an 8 pt hit...
DDG
Vertonghen* Alcaraz* Martin/Carragher
Bale* Michu* Maloney* Walcott
Aguero* RVP Suarez
Would mean no Chelsea, no WBA and only Aguero from City. Yikes.Open Controls -
Just found a funny fact about the Aguero incident. In case Aguero gets banned before next week. He will miss the game vs Tottenham. So there is no way Chelsea can have justice 😀
Open Controls -
Looks like Pardew missed a trick there by removing Cabaye. No one was pressing when Sunderland were in possession, not even Tiote for the most bit.
Open Controls -
Say what you want about Di Canio but dear god does that man bring the passion, I was almost in tears to see the black cloud being lifted and for us to not only put in a good performance but look like we actually wanted to win a game of football, that we would rather die than lose...the desire instilled in not just the players but the fans is so palpable...today was the happiest I've felt as a Sunderland supporter since probably back in the Peter Reid days...what a club, what passion, I LOVE YOU SUNDERLAND!!! DI CANIO= LEGEND!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Open Controls-
Was a great win, well done Di Canio
Open Controls -
3-0!!! 3 bloody nil!!
Cannot believe it, OH YESSSS!! 🙂 🙂Open Controls -
Love how he "Mourinho'ed" his trousers!! 😆
Open Controls-
if he is like this every time we score a goal, I honestly think I will be orgasming every week...to see a manager imitate the kind of things I do when we score is just so beautiful, such passion, and this is his SECOND game!! OH I LOVE YOU SUNDERLAND!!! 🙂

He has been in charge for 2 games, a good win against a tired looking Newcastle. Thought the efence looked very suspect though, should be ok, just about. Things can swing very quickly though.
Open Controls-
man, I don't even care, our defence has been suspect all year, what matters is clean sheet and we score THREE goals and not just lucky goals, unbelievable goals! This would never have happened under MON, we never looked like doing this, we're reborn, we're alive again and staying up, THIS IS THE GREATEST MOMENT IN HISTORY!!! YESS!!!! HAWAY THE LADS 🙂

Hope ye do, and ooking at all the fixtures plus gd, reckon you will. I really hope Stoke are the ones to go.

No you are not. Our top scorer is on the bench!

-4 to give me 8 DGWers or -8 for 9.
Open Controls -
Not focusing on City/Chelsea much since that might only be an "on paper" double because of other competitions.
-12 max, depending on how realistic I think I can move up in my country. I'm winning my ML pretty comfortably with a 90+ lead on closest rival and +130 on the next one (BIG thanks to this site and users).Open Controls -
-8, maybe -12 if I havent saved a transfer.

Easiest game is probably Swansea at home, but that's 2 days after a trip to Basel.
Lampard out; Bale in next week 😎Open Controls-
I'll probably just have Hazard from Chelsea

So, if Chelsea get GW36 as their double, they will play United and Spurs away. That, including Rafatation, is not something I'm willing to take hits for.
Open Controls-
Regardless of the rafatation - I fancy a punt on Demba.
Open Controls -
By then, there may not be many teams left with something to play for. Chelsea may still need results to finish 4th (or 3rd), same for Arsenal and Tottenham (maybe Everton?). Apart from that, it will be a few down the bottom. The rest will be cruising.

Why do you all play FF? Do you ever get stressed with other stuff and think - at least I can go and get lost in thoughts of football and my fantasy team?
Open Controls-

Really? Don't you ever find yourself hoping that Rooney misses instead scoring a 20 yard chip?
Open Controls

ff gives me more stress than my job and 3 kids!
Open Controls -
I like it cause it make's watching Stoke V Reading a million times more exciting!!!
Who got the assist?!!! I need to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Open Controls -
First it was a bit of competition between workmates now its full time obsession.
Open Controls -
To win.
Open Controls -
No vice versa
I'm having a lovely day then FF ships all over it........especially this weekend!!Open Controls -
I'm not as big a fan of football as I used to be, but I just see this as more of a hobby, than it being motivated by actual football. I feel it gives football an extra dimension for me; it makes me more interested in other games that I usually wouldn't care for, as I have a dog in that fight.

Milanista still about?
Open Controls-
Was just after your email address for the ICC comp. We've been trying to select a starting XI each GW and its difficult if we don't know what everyone's planned team is.
If you don't want to post your email address on the site post a comment here http://uefacouncil.wordpress.com/2013/03/16/europa-league-gw29-review-groups-i-l/
Can be anything, doesn't have to include your email.Open Controls -
Hey CP, you are the only person in the team I don't have an email address for... I think Milanista just wanted to get a hold of you for that...

MOTD2 devoting a chunk of the show to completed how good Howard Webb was today at the derby...
From what I saw, Sunderland had 2 blatant pens turned down and Danny Rose should've seen a red card.
But hey, great refereeing Howard.Open Controls -
Has this dgw taught me a lesson???
Hell no, I'll be taking hits in 36 without fail!
Ps what was the reason for the Rafael no show??Open Controls -
Woods making a late charge, pity it's too late...

Sessegnon!!
Johnson!!
Vaughan!!
Di Canio's first win in charge, 3-0 away to Newcastle
Can you believe it!!??!?!
Yes you can!!
Staying up! 🙂Open Controls-
I hope you do/ I want Stoke gone.
Plus I fecking love Mignolet 😀Open Controls -
the run in is decent, you got some favourable fixtures...i think its between sun n stoke for the final spot still

Rafeal WTF
Last 5 gw's he has been in my team, Utd have had 4 cleansheets zero points, plays against City 0 points.

LOL. Serves you right for incessantly pestering us with those nonsensical 'Rafael will start' and 'De Gea is shite' posts. 😆
Open Controls-
nah, those weren't my words, De Gea wasn't my cup of tea is all, I fancied Rafael was fit and set to start 2, but for some reason he's injured, just unlucky
Open Controls-
He may not have been your cup of tea, but still clearly the better option. We debated this at lenght, you wouldn't listen. You asked for opionons constantly whether to go Fab or DDG, every response said DDG, yet you kept digging out strange reasons against it. Hard cheese.
