    3 points...beat that!!!

    (although I have a 10 point sub that'll come off the bench).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,316 ✭✭✭Reginald P. DuM


    I cannae beat it captain, it got twice your score. 6. Last time I am doing this I am woeful at it, no rewards only frustration. 5 players to line out tomorrow inc captain.

    Am I correct in saying that if your score is not good enough they dump you out of it after group games? That'd be a blessing at this point. I'm like the Liverpool of FF.

    Also have an epic 3 points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Bit of a disaster. Think I got 5 pts. I used my wildcard and sold Buffon for Van Der Sar and also got rid of Cheyrou who would have earned me a lot more.

    I gambled and it backfired spectacularly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,096 ✭✭✭An Citeog


    Got 20 points from 5 players, so happy enough given that O'Shea didn't play and Akinfeev still managed to get 4 points even though he conceded 3 goals. Was considering taking Gourcuff out but I'm definitely glad I left him in now.

    Think I'll have to play my wildcard next week and sort out my fairly pathetic bench!

    3 points from Cech(2) Terry(0) and Evra(1) and the other Diarra(0)

    Have Fabregas as captain tonight though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    Fagregas \m/


  • Registered Users Posts: 362 ✭✭postalservice


    Really annoyed now.
    I have Fab and Van P on my team but they get taken off.
    Fab wouldve got his hat-trick and Van P would def have scored with a fabregas assist


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 219 ✭✭Perrin


    72,not bad even with carrying the injured ronaldo.
    whats the highest overall score in the boards league?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    48 points. Arshavin as captain spared my blushes. Love that little guy.

    Damn dropped back to 13th. Contemplating getting rid of Josh now. Dont think Fergie will use him for the remainder of the group games


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Bad week, 45 points and dropped down to 2nd.

    I was playing eirebhoy in the H2H, felt strange :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,570 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    67 points

    Cesc as Captain was the only real good point.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    A soild if unspectacular 43 points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,889 ✭✭✭Third_Echelon


    rubbish week for me. 37. Only saving grace was fabregas.. Should have had him as captain, but went for lampard... oh well..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,793 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    57 points, mainly from Fabregas as captain, only Pique, Navas and Fabiano contributed besides Cesc. Left Dzeko on the bench and had transferred out Gourcuff and Diaby. Would have been an absolute disaster without Cesc.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,418 ✭✭✭curry-muff


    51, should have been much more if i wasnt stupid enough to transfer both Gourcuff and Chamakh out for Pjanic and Hulk :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,096 ✭✭✭An Citeog


    61 points. Completely forgot to change my captain to Fabregas this week but I had Gilardino, so it's not all bad!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 868 ✭✭✭tdv


    Terrible week for me only got 39. J.Navas the only saving grace for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    *Bump*

    Kicking myself, I made 3 transfers giving myself a -4 deficit before the GW begins, only to realise that I still have my wildcard (bearing in mind that you have unlimited transfers at the start of the next round anyway, then 6 every further round). So then I activated it and made one or two more.

    So the team for this week:

    Buffon

    Maicon
    Lahm
    Ivanovic----

    Kallstrom--Xavi--C.Ronaldo--Fabreas--J.Cole

    Lisandro(c)
    Dzeko

    Played my wildcard. gone for a mix of players vs already qualified teams, players that need to qualify and players that should score points in their match.


    ---- Buffon

    Terry - Lucio

    Diego - Seedorf- Ronaldinho - Dudu - Simão

    ---- Higuaín - Džeko - Grafite(C)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,570 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee



    Akinfeev

    Ivanovic
    Canavarro
    Schiefer

    Ronaldo---Ramsey----Xavi----Diego----Navas

    Vela
    Dzeko(C)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I've two injured players for this one.

    Davidovitch

    Konko
    Keinan

    Arshavin---Schweinsteiger----Pjanic----Ekrem--Hleb

    Eto'o----Drogba (c)
    Ibrahimovic

    I've a feeling a few of these won't play so I might have to take a points hit.

    Edit: Just sold Fabiano for Drogba and I've stuck the captaincy on him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    Captain Ronaldo delivers a goal. \m/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,570 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee

    Arshavin didn't travel, it's our youth squad that went over.

    Had Ronaldo and Dzeko (C), also the Wolfsburg defender who got the assist.

    Hulk is sitting on the bench though and unless Navas doesn't play tomo he won't be coming in... :(

    Damn, I didn't think he'd play. I've only Grosso on the bench and he got zilch tonight thanks to Bayern.

    I have 20 points tonight largely down to Drogba as captain but I took a 4 point hit so all things considered I'm in for a bleak week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,570 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee

    I started Cannavaro thinking there's no way Juventus are going to go out at home...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 868 ✭✭✭tdv


    FFS forgot all about this. Still had Ronaldo on the bench from when he was injured & had Maxi on his place. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,932 ✭✭✭deisedude


    30 points so far. 269 overall. Not too shabby:D

    Ronaldo (C)
    Fabregas
    Gourcuff

    Butt

    ----Squillaci
    Lahm
    Evra

    Ronaldo(c)--Iniesta--Fabregas--Pjanic-

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,096 ✭✭✭An Citeog


    A measly 14 points with 8 to play including captain Messi. Very cleverly left Cissokho on the bench!:(


  • Registered Users Posts: 362 ✭✭postalservice


    Is Terry out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,932 ✭✭✭deisedude


    Bump. So how is everyone doing at this? I got 64 points this gameday and i'm up to third
    /smug:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    At the risk of being left with egg on my face it appears I have won the Boards Champions League game with Life is Messi. I went into this gameweek in fourth place, trailing about 10 pts or so, but I had an epic score of 68 thanks largely to Milito as captain and I appear to have won by 5 pts.

    I also won the Boards Europa League FF version but I didn't bother mentioning that since most people gave up and there was less than 10 in the end. :pac:

    Still, a nice European double for me heading into the World Cup version. :cool:

    Congrats!:)

    I went with Sneijder instead of Milito as captain which proved to be my downfall. Second in this and in my private EPL Fantasy Football league. Reckon I'll have to do one for the World Cup now!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,932 ✭✭✭deisedude


    I round out the top 3 with Deccys Dudes. Happy i went with Milito as captain now. Having to field a knocked out player kind of hampered me though
