    What happened Ballack? He's my captain and I had no idea he wasn't playing this weekend.

    Can see Deco being sent off today.

    It's a tough game so far.

    ****sake.

    I take out two Portsmouth defenders. Put in two Chelsea. Judging on the first two weeks.

    And this bollocks happens. Not happy.

    Does that Spurs goal count as a Modric assist? I should hope so.

    I have Ireland in my team as first choice sub. I tried to swap him with Kranjcar (who's injured), but it doesn't seem to have worked.


    Do I get Ireland's points, or have I been stupid?

    My bad. I assumed he was talking about trying to make an in-game substitution ( I think this is what he did do?) Didn't realise that Krancjar didn't play at all.

    Subs are made automatically if some of your players dont play - I just left the Utd players in my starting lineup.

    Excellent.


    I tried to switch Krancjar and Ireland, but it didn't happen. So does this mean I'll get the points for Ireland?

    0-0

    Delicious. Clean sheets for laursen, carragher, reina and +1 for Young.

    Van persie and Bent chip in with three goals, deco with an assist and it's my third week 55+ points.

    5 defenders is working a treat.

    59+ bonus points this week and I still haven't had to make a transfer.

    Phew I thought Laursen didn't get any bonus pts but he did.

    I finished with 50 points for the week. I said I'd take 45 at the start of the week so I guess I'm happy. I'm still annoyed at not bringing in Zaki though. And of course that muppet Downing missing his penalty. Lost my head-to-head as well. :(

    Roll on next week!

    My fears became a reality; yesterday's excellent start undone by a pathetic Liverpool/ Villa game.

    47 pts.

    Deco and Ireland in for Gerrard and Bentley worked out well, Cech in for Green didnt.

    I am very tempted to play the wild card. A miserable 33 points this week. :(

    Edit: Time to add SWP to my team. A bit late now but I think he will find the form again that made Chelsea buy him.

    Shaun Wright Wright Wright Phillips back to Citeh. He could be a nice one to pick up if he plays regularly. He used to be a great points scorer back pre chelski.

    He will turn out to be a very high points scorer this season imo.

    I did worse. I brought him in under my wildcard, but benched him as I wasn't sure Hughes would start him!

    Not a bad turnaround though, seeing as I brought in Zaki and captained him :P;)

    Sounds like he is going to be out for about 2-3 weeks.

    If the greasy one was returning next week, it would be an easy swap.

    People forget that at the start of last season, Torres scored pretty much 1 in 3 games, then exploded after Christmas.

    66 for me, basically everyone chipped in with 6. Annoyed about my captains so far, want Ronaldo make to make it easy for me.

    Whats the story with Ronnie's value not dropping yet? Cesc's went down 0.1 after 2 weeks of not playing, why hasnt the golden one done something similar? :)

    Bent, Bent,
    Darren Darren Bent,
    I drop the **** ******* ******* **** ** ******* ***
    He scores a goal,
    Darren, Darren Bent

    Ended up on 35 points which was a total disaster. Deco was poor, Everton dreadful (Arteta, Lescot), Barry poor, Chelsea concede (!), Keane a disaster.

    And just to add salt to the wounds, Cisse plays 59 minutes, and doesn't get the second appearance point.

    I STILL have not scored a single goal.

    Two Words. Wild Card.

    Woo-Hooo- Up to second in Boards and leading all my leagues.

    I knew van persie and bent were good for goals when everyone started trading them off- then BAM!

    I still haven't had to make a transfer to my starting 11 and bentley is getting one more week to prove himself as SWP is playing chelsea and he'll be getting........wait for it. Nothing.

    Looking like fun now- torres and gerrard probably out, ballack, tottenham crap,

    5 defenders I said- they thought I was mad.
