GW34 Match day thread.....

S.M.B.

I'm currently the 2,828th highest scorer this week with 2 arsenal players left to play.

Shaping up to be my best week of the season. Even better considering I hadn't had a chance to do much with my team the past 4 weeks cause I was away on holidays.

As if that's an excuse!

Devia

Was feeling a bit sketchy about captaining rooney over RVP but seems to have worked out. Even if Van Persie gets a hatrick tomorrow there won't be many regrets.

Formation

61 with bps for rooney(c) and siggy, vermaelaen, walcott and rvp to play.

estimate 90 points when its all done?

wont be braging about my season but at least I kept the interest going for the full season.

keano_afc

Clean sheet tomorrow for the Gunners would be great. I'm on 62, with Vermaelen and RVP (c) to play. Bonus points coming for Siggy and Rooney, and maybe McClean.

AdpRo

75 after bonus with Szczesny and Theo to play, gaining some serious ground in money league again this week, just praying for a no show from RVP tonight, surely he's due a rest!!!

stephen_k

Bloody hell... 95 points this week with RVP and Ox still to play... my best score so far by a country mile... :pac:

Special Agent Oso

67 after bonus' with RVP (c) to play. Really need him to rip Wigan a new muck hole tonight just to help close the gap with people ahead of me and to help me pull away from people below me. Squeeky bum time indeed....

manual_man

I have to say I'm surprised so many captained RVP after Wigan kept out United. Would happily settle for a 0-0 or 1-0 to Wigan!

OctavarIan

1BP for Mignolet, result.

GLaDOS

77 with RVP and Sagna to play, though hoping for a quiet game from RVP for obvious reasons. Delighted with the score considering I avoided making any subs this week so I can stack up for the double gameweek.

United played shíte and I dont see Wigan performing against 2 top 4 sides back to back

They were very unlucky against Chelsea the week before

Wigan are in the position of really having to fight for every point now, so it is not beyond the realms of portability that they will make life hard for Arsenal (or any one they are playing in the last few games)

This happens every year at the end of the season. The teams who can still stay up battle for everything and play much better then they have all season and then the ones who are going down suddenly have no fear or nothing to play for and start passing it about and getting results you would not expect.

I think the last few weeks of a season are some of the trickiest......

SpaceCowb0y

Just in the door after a massive weekend to find ive clocked 60 points with RVP, Arteta and possibly Gibbs still to play!

Happy days:)

Pity i gave Sess the armband though....

roryc

63 after BP's, Mignolet's was a nice addition. Surprising considering Richards is the only player to score lower than 6 points. Walcott and captain RVP need to perform tonight. I'll take 3-1 Arsenal, RVP hat-trick all assisted by RVP with Vermaelen sent off in the 59th minute for headbutting the ref...

Dempsey

Vermaelen is going to get a hattrick of headers from corners!

That all go out for a throw-in!

13 bps! Sweet! Just need RVP to have a quiet night tonight!

yes, very quiet!! In fact it is amazing he has not got a bad injury so far.
Think he should be given the night off!!!

roryc

I'd happily take RVP not playing, pretty much everyone has no usable subs and Rooney as VC.

I know he's good, but he's not that good:pac:

Oh ye of little faith! He's RVP, he does what he wants!

Yeah, Sess was extremely disappointing vs Wolves. I have him as VC and I was very tempted to make him captain too.

4-0 Arsenal tonight. RVP hattrick and Wallcott goal and assist.

I captained Siggy so i would like that assist and 3 bp please, thanks very much, nice one, much appreciated, cheers.

I love short gameweeks, 69 so far with RVP (c) and the Verminator to play.

Thoughts turning to the DGW.

I think he just said he wants to have an off night, let the other members of his team get in some goals.........

I dont think anyone would be surprised if RVP was awarded clean sheet and save bonuses! :pac:

Mr. Guappa

Graham (1) and Ridgewell (2) bonus points were a nice boost, to go along with 3 for Rooney and Siggy.

Cantona's Collars

77 with 3 to play,the lovely green arrows are in abundance this week:)

I've gone mad and sold RVP for Tevez. Chelsea>Wolves so I hope the gamble pays off.

grohlisagod

Vermaelen has scored 37 points in his 2 previous games against Wigan. An average of 18.5 points!! A repeat performance would be nice!

dahat

74 with 3 to play,RVP,Walcott and Arteta to play....Hope RVP has a quite ish game as my main rival has him captained

Looking to sell Rooney for GW36,Low grade Double striker and top up my midfield amybe......totally unsure about 36 really but have gotten Dempsey back for GW35,sold Sess

Mr Moon

55 with C RVP and Walcott to play tonight.

I'm sure there's plenty of us hoping for the two of them to score a rake of points tonight!

Only fielded 9 this week, didn't take any hits to get 11 playing.

Will have 8 DGW's for GW36 now.

PopTarts

Hoping RVP (even though I have him) does nothing tonight. Too many people have him captained!

DazzlerIE

I have RVP as captain, but I'd take Tommy V doing something over RVP any day

he's something of a differential at least

gustafo

well just hit 1950 points for the season, now 72 ahead in my money league, still have not used any wildcards this season so it's handy to have for the double game weeks.

i surely have it won now but who knows.

Stevecw

68, with Cptn RVP, Arteta & Moses to go.
1 in contention,in work league rest are way behind... that guy in my money league with me has Cptn RVP, & theo. he's 9 behind coming into this game.

Need Arteta & Victor to shine!

Hat trick for RVP, goal and a clean sheet for Verm and a late consolation goal for Moses after Verm is taken off will suffice tonight:D

manual_man

match predictions please (and try to be realistic)

I'm going for a 1-1 draw
