As good as it gets for this horrible GW.

Bale 7 Walcott 2 Fellani 2 Mata 2
Van Persie 1 Aguero 2 Pog (C) 12
Expecting a poor weekOpen ControlsI think Demel will get 0. Rest look OK.

At leat he nailed on , they have good fixture and he due
Open Controls
Is taking a -4 for a defender worth it, if the defender is one you're planning to keep for the rest of the season?
Cos if it is, I'll sell Johnson this week, for either Cuellar or Jevans.Open ControlsCuellar not gauranteed to get back in. Shitehouse Gambles is playing very well according to the ITK Sunderland fans (and no, I don't mean Unreal 😉 )
Open Controls
My question above relates to this kind of question, but mine involves getting rid of Bertrand (who will almost certainly score between 0-1 every GW) to get in Wilson.
But Johnson has this blank and then is back playing again, so I would say maybe, and if you were doing it, would be for Jevans.
Would also save cash which is a considerationOpen Controls
Walcott good for Captain
Bunn(Everton) or Mignolet(WestBrom in goalOpen Controls
Dawson, or Cuellar??
Open Controls
I am in almost the same situation(4.6 available) and going with S Taylor instead, hoping Newcastle will start showing some form eventually. BC I dont like fixtures for Dawson and Cuellar does not rotate well for me.
Open Controls
plot twist: I am Mark. Behave, the lot of you. Ta.
Open ControlsI like to wear my mums dresses and get high with towelie.

A bunch of copycats. I'm changing my username 🙁
Open Controls
Dawson or Cuellar?
Open Controls
Think positive thoughts; Rooney WILL play, Rooney WILL play, Rooney WILL play, Rooney WILL play etc
Open ControlsREPOST as no replies on last page
Alright chaps, 0.2 in bank, 1 FT
Begovic / Bunn
Zabaleta / Sagna / Davies / Harte / Bertrand
Bale / Walcott/ Michu / Fellaini / Puncheon
Van Pricey / Suarez / Sturridge
A) Suarez to Aguero
B) Suarez to Aguero & Bertrand to Wilson (4 pt hit)
I was assuming A as I thought (perhaps wrongly) that Wilson would need to score 4 more points than Bertrand THIS GAMEWEEK for the 4 point hit to be justified, but then the 4 point hit would only need to be made up long term (until I use my other WC), because Bertrand will score ~0 each GW (not playing) and Wilson is back and even 2 pointers will make back the 4 point hit pretty soonish.
Is this reasonable and correct thinking for B, and if so, is B the right option of the two?
CheersOpen Controlscheers mate
Open Controls
You have almost the same problem as me.
I want to get Aguero this week as my 1FT, but if I do I will probably only have 10 players play (Demel)
So I thinking Sturridge > Aguero or Sturridge & Johnson > Aguero & Cuellar/Jevans.
I think I might just take the hit.Open ControlsYeah I posted on the previous page it was a similar problem except with me Bertrand is guaranteed 0 every GW.
Your case is slightly different but if you were to go for it I would go for Jevans
CheersOpen Controls
I don't like either option, tbh. But then again, I'm firmly entrenched in the "keep Suarez" position.
So I'm no help what-so-ever. Sorry 🙁Open Controlsno worries mate, appreciate the reply
Open Controls
Just A, I wouldn't play Wilson that often and with the upcoming fixtures would play Zab every game and rotate 2 out of Harte/Sagna/Davies
Open Controlsthanks for the reply mate
Open Controls
B, if you don't you won't have enough players anyway although there's a chance Wilson wont start but i think he will, it would be ideal if your hit was going to be for season keeper unless that is your plan with Wilson.
Open Controlscheers,
Wilson will most likely be a season keeper considering his price and the likely probability that Stoke will recover their defensive form with himOpen Controls
I've imposed a transfer ban on my team until the GW29 fixtures are released.
It's insane that people are taking hits to get United players in when they could have a game, be rested for Madrid and then have a blank.Open Controls
you wont find out anything this week. Good luck fielding 9 players next week.
Open Controls
I'm currently ranked 49k.
Do you think I'm the highest ranked towel?Open Controls
More like a dish cloth I'd say.
Open Controls
Not in love with my troops for the weekend, still tough for most I'd say,
Begs
Clyne Harte Marriapa, Baines
Mata, Bale, Walcott(c) Puncheon
RVP, Pod.
An unlikely Reading clean sheet would be immense, and somthing from Pod who I hope plays. Fingers crossed big time.Open Controlspodolski hasn't played a Bpl game in ages.
Open ControlsAlways in with a chance with him, if he starts
Open Controls
There is no question that Unreal is behind all the split personalities. But is it really worth that much effort? Sigh.
Open Controls
Please leave.
Open Controls
Hey Pep....i have been trying to figure out which profiles are his.
Open ControlsPretty unoriginal.
Open ControlsIt is annoying. I made my username in slight jest but people have taken it over the top. They ruined with childishness. Shame.
Open ControlsBemba Da. But he's been around for a while i think. I signed up recently as his dad and everyone was having a lugh and finding it amusing. Then all the copycats came along and then my grav became annoying to everyone 🙁
Open Controls
So you're the only one that's allowed to copy is what you're saying?
Open ControlsGood. I'm fed up of being accused of having multiple accounts!
Open Controls
Evening,
Just hoping to get a few opinions of my team going forward for the long term..
Bunn,
Enrique, Monreal, Zabaletta
Mata, Walcott, Bale, Fellaini, Puncheon
Aguero, Pog
Cesar, Enrique , O’Brien, Suarez
Cheers as always, guysOpen ControlsWih i could have two enrique
Open ControlsThat's got plenty of potential.Whose the captain?
Open ControlsTough choice alright.
Open Controls
as always it is going to come down to your (C) choice. If you select well, you will do well. Not having a reliable RVP will certainly make your decision tougher. Then again RVP might get rested a few games from here in so you MIGHT benefit. Who knows!
Open Controls
So do city have a blank GW 29? I never knew this was on the cards...
Open Controls
If you are going to post under a different name on this forum, at least try to stick to having only two accounts.
More than two can be tiring work, and you are much more likely to run out of jokes faster.Open ControlsBemba and Cappiss had one account each. All the others were the same guy i think.
Open Controls
I agree the advice canard.
Open ControlsOne is the right number.
Open ControlsI think this is Unreal also.
Open Controls
A aguero+puncheon
or
B Fellen+lambert
A, gives me a very strong 343 of
bale mata walcot michu punch
rvp sturidge aguero
B, with the other 2, gives me a bench problemOpen ControlsI also think A. Punch is outstanding value and I'm a little wary of Fellaini's prospects going forward.
Open Controlswhat about in light of all the blanks coming up? with the power 5 and rvp sturidge lambert u get more options
Open ControlsNot if Everton win their replay. Then you just have Puncheon instead of Lambert. And from the article it seemed like City's was the match least likely to be rescheduled.
Open Controlsahhh ok, av got baines aswell so that could be brutal. cheers dude
the only problem then is if city dont play, i cud have more than 25mil on the bench (if i dont FT one of um out)Open Controls
CF watching the Leafers?
Open ControlsYup....can we do it again? The bunch of inglorious bastards. I told myself i was going to boycott the nhl season. I have season tickets and told myself i would not go to a single game this year. Yet i still kept a few games back and have found myself watching the last 3 games.
UGH.....gotta love them.Open ControlsAaaaand we just got scored on 😆

Open ControlsI'm captaining Bale this week. How many other herre are as well?
Open ControlsIf you really want to 'copy' LR, shouldn't you put that you are a consulting criminal your name?
Open ControlsI'm not copying lr. This was the only other grav i had in my account. I'll get a new one tomorrow if it bothers you :rolleyes:
I hoped people would be more friendly here. I am not here to cause trouble anymore, i promise.Open Controls
You were very agressive when you first appeared on the boards. You were talking down posters left and right as Capiss.
Bad way to enter the site. How will we respond with friendliness if that's the way you introduced yourself?Open Controls
Is that Mike Patton in your grav?
Open Controls
Isn't there some way that IPs can be tracked to usernames and duplicates banned? I guess that's too much work.
Open ControlsNot well up on that stuff, the reality is it can get totally out off hand.
Open ControlsNot sure about this board but if not they can easily be downloaded, On most forums and boards your IP and email address will or should show and then you either get refused or accepted, there's some sites have built in IP checkers but the free ones around the net are usually quite good and can tell where you are.
Yes some culprits change their IP and email but usually slip up before long if not as people can only post different for so long, you can use a proxy to hide the IP but anyone using proxy shouldn't be excepted in the first place.Open Controls
You could report posts
Open ControlsI really don't want to be wasting the Scouts time with banning people's split personalities. But a forum troll has long fascinated me as a mysterious and intriguing creature.
Open ControlsI'm sure they can manage their own time just well. They put the report function there for a reason. I agree that it's tiresome however.
Open Controls
Is Towelie some sort of a troll, too?
Open ControlsSo that's a yes.
Open Controls
Morning lads
I find Towelie quite amusing myself - he's only got the one joke but it is fairly funny. The others just clog up the pages and are staggeringly unfunny. Unreal really needs to get a job, a girlfriend, a cure for insomnia and a wide variety of other things to help him lead a normal life.Open Controls
when do you think will we know the dates of the city & utd gw29 games?
Open Controlsthere is a whole article on this

City: whenever the EPL has a look at the schedules againOpen Controls
I haven't posted my team on here for a while ...
Bego, Bunn
Zaba, GJ, Davies, Pearce, Bertrand
Mata, Michu, Walcott, Bale, Fellaini
RVP, Fletcher, Pog
What do you guys see as urgent areas for improvement? Obviously, Bertrand should go soon, but there may be bigger fish to fry at the moment.Open ControlsPretty solid. Fletcher to Sturridge next week would probably be my highest priority. I don't see Fletcher's upside being high enough to be your second forward.
Open ControlsStrikers are weak. If you're going the P5 route, the ideal striker to partner with RVP and Pog is Suarez.
Open Controlsor Aguero

What's up with UCL??? Have crashed down from 600ish to 26k tonight and teams like this have charged 150 points ahead of me...
http://en.uclfantasy.uefa.com/UEFA/15804/cliententryhome.do?gsp=4614&publicId=0.08229656432037850.291332173432533Open ControlsIt's a fault, the leaders are showing to have something like 700+ points, and they clearly don't.
Open ControlsBad form really.
I've stuck by UCL in my 1st season of it (mostly coz I was doing well!) but can't see myself playing again next year coz of the constant cock-ups.Open ControlsSame. I had to change my captain before it let me make any subs yesterday! Thankfully Kroos did the business 😎
I'm playing this season because I'm doing well, but won't bother again.Open ControlsI went for Isco as (c) over Kroos, onto Messi tomorrow!
Should have taken Vidal's 7 and left it there, still, got to back Messi for at least 1 goal.Open ControlsYeah, I agree.
I think I'll keep it on Kroos, as I'd need Messi score or assist more than once to beat him and I think it'll be a relatively tight game.Open Controls
Please help!!
A) Suarez > Giroud
B) Suarez > Aguerro
C) Suarez > Cisse
Got to make my transfer soon!Open ControlsAnyone else have Grabovski (C) ?

11 years, 2 months agoFor a one week punt: Benteke, Lukaku or Lambert ?
Thinking of doing Sturridge to one of the 3 and then back after the blank 🙂
