This is a depressing gameweek..... Thankfully, most people are going through the same pain.

shovelsfc · 18-04-2010 12:23pm

Bullard 3 bonus points and another game to play!! nice buy? indeed!! jimmy jimmy jimmy...oi oi oi!!!

18-04-2010 12:26pm

30 points with Milner & A. Young to play (and then play again). Tevez as captain really didn't work out as planned. Had been burnt by picking Villa players as captain on DGWs before so didn't want to go with them this time, which looks like it'll cost me.

SickBoy · 18-04-2010 3:22pm

Van Persie comes on for 1min

I hate you Wenger!!!

great my first 2 subs are N'Zogbia and bendtner....

N'Zogbia probably get bonus points and maybe an assist

Bendtner gets an Assist

Instead good old Van Persie, Captain Van Persie comes on for 2 mins for a solid 1 point (make that 2 captain)

What a disaster of a week... looking to make some points and instead i would have been better off leaving my team.. took out Arteta because he was still injured..

I think thats the end of Fantasy for me this year...

Ickle Magoo · 18-04-2010 3:32pm

Ahhhh! 13 points on the bench and heap of expensive players doing nowt! 35 with Young (C) and Collins to play twice.

18-04-2010 5:32pm

I have 1 goal, one assist, 2 players conceded 2 for a -1 and all the rest of my players have 2 points including captain.

have 3 players left to play

I should give up

SantryRed · 18-04-2010 5:48pm

Forgot to change my team this week. Berra, Friedel and Bullard on the bench

42 points with Insua to play.

Keano · 18-04-2010 5:53pm

43 with 2 Villa players to play again and Kuyt playing tomorrow.

T-b0n3 · 18-04-2010 6:15pm

18 on the bench. Raging. Still have Young (C), Gabby & Collins to get me some more points midweek. Hopefully!

Mint Sauce · 18-04-2010 6:34pm

things are not getting any better this week, 27 pts with three to play inc captain, kinda hoping insua doesn't feature tomorrow, have nzogbia on bench with 7, etherington coming on for 20 minutes didn't help maters either, only earning one point, 2nd sub has 6pts. in total have 21 pts on the bench

Mezcita · 18-04-2010 6:47pm

Agbon as captain. Marvellous.

Jimmy Iovine · 18-04-2010 7:14pm

Great I've 16 points on the bench and put Carew as captain only to see that backfire with his **** peno. Have to make up 16 points somehow in the next few weeks so Carew better pull his finger out on Wednesday

18-04-2010 7:15pm

Milner got 3 bonus points

On 50 points, with 3 to play midweek.

bonus pts bring me up to 35, although bench in now worth 24. really really hope insua does not feature tomorrow, nzogbia is now at 10

Royale with Cheese · 18-04-2010 7:27pm

55 with Torres to play and a couple of Villa players again. If torres doesn't make it then I'm on 57. Have Bale as second sub, bit of a sickener.

pablodunlop · 18-04-2010 7:36pm

i know i shouldn't be happy about a liverpool player being injured, but its a great example of club v ff, an extra 10pts could make all the difference in the global and private leauges

18-04-2010 8:00pm

Torres is out for the season it has been confirmed.

Source? Great differential killer if so.

Disaster of a week. My highest point scorer in my 2nd sub. Luckily most in my private leagues are struggling too, so far. Ideal if Dunne outscores Milner vs Hull.

47 now after bonuses with Kuyt to play tomorrow and 3 players playing midweek.

Morzadec · 18-04-2010 9:05pm

N'Zogbia (10 points), Arteta (7 points) and Zubar (6 points) all on the bench -

Combined Total: 23 points

You should have played them then, eh?

Mars Bar · 18-04-2010 10:10pm

53 points with Dunne as my captain to play midweek. I hope he can keep a clean sheet against Hull.

A strike force of Tevez, Drogba and Rooney gets me 6 points! *sigh*

My defence got 28 points which is 6 more than my whole midfield and strike force combined.

Such an odd game week.

Dunne as Capt? Ballsy choice. Hopefully it pays off (I have Dunne as well but thought he was a risky Captain choice, hes good differential for me though, so I hope he does well!)

Frisbee · 18-04-2010 10:22pm

57 with Dunne to play again

Yeah I know, needless to say at 3:09 pm today, I was thinking it wasn't such a good idea but I have 8 points from him despite that goal so it appears to be paying off at the moment.

He was the only Villa player I had too and couldn't afford to take any more point hits at this stage.

*Fingers crossed!*

pwd · 18-04-2010 10:37pm

60 with dunne, cuellar and Milner (c) to play again.

big_show · 18-04-2010 10:46pm

42 with a respectable 6 (hart) 11 (bale) and 6 (gera) on the bench

fml

Gillington · 18-04-2010 10:52pm

53 points which isnt too bad,Dunne and Milner if they play again.Raging,brought in Bale and for some reason I didnt start him! 11 points on the bench :mad:

Stargal · 19-04-2010 12:11am

44 with Dunne, Cuellar and Milner (C) all to play again. 18 points on the bench though -didn't think Kilbane, Craddock or Hart would keep a clean sheet. Groargh.

Closest rival has Bullard as captain which is either inspired or crazy. He got 12 points from Hull's first game this week so I'm starting to suspect that it's the former.

When I switched on the radio I heard Portsmouth had scored, expected them to keep a cleansheet, but they only seem to do that every time I bench Dunne

4 points is a decent return with no cleansheet! I have Hart and N'Zogbia on the bench, it was all looking so good for Faye and Sorensen, then they concede 2 in the last 10 mins, and Faye misses a sitter from 10 yards.

I have Hart on the bench too but I rarely ever drop N'Zogbia to the bench.

You've been pretty unlucky this week!

Mars Bar · 19-04-2010 3:11pm

When I logged in this morning I had 53 points, logged back in just there and now have 56 points. They were fairly late giving me N'Zogbia's bonus points! Did it happen to anyone else?

I think it's because he was credited with an assist today.

neil.p.b · 21-04-2010 2:42pm

Id get rid of one of the Everton lads, no point having the three of them. Id also get rid of either Collins or Cuellar, no point having both of them and Friedel. There's no really obvious options for a straight midfield swap so you could downgrade to someone like Etherington or Bullard and upgrade one of the defenders to someone like Bale, Baines, or if you could afford it even Evra or Johnson.
