He looked very tired tbh. 3 points - i take it.

8-10

Fingers crossed for 0-0 now!

How long left?

Benimar

51 from 3 players, 16 from the other 8..I hate this f*****g game

Necronomicon

FT 0-0, fùck.

Giroud had a glorious chance to convert a would-be Ramsey assist. Donkey.

I'd be delighted with that but can't see it happening. Chelsea look like they'll score on the break.

0-0 would net me 21 points before any bps.

You sir are a genius.

Does that put you back in it in the Cup??

Paully D

Happy with that. How are the BP's looking?

FHFC

Currently predicted is 3 Bonus for Merts and Vermalin, 1 for Gibbs.

Iused2likebusts

chelsea can defend when they have to clean sheets at old trafford and the emirates. Azpilicueta may be worth a look come wildcard time.

BNMC

I should get the 3 BPs for enduring that dog of a game.

I'm starting Terry and Mert. I can see Jose parking the bus and going for a 0 0 as Chelsea are away.

Credit where it's due. If only I'd listened I'd not have had such a bitch of a week. You did convince me to play Merts not Dawson with this comment so cheers.

I needed 17 from Terry, Mert and Ozil. I have 15 so far. Will any of those get bps?

Mert predicted for 3 so that would be 18..... Saying nothing more till they're confirmed.

Mert on 3:D

I will expect to drop back from my gains over the weekend, 0-0 a disaster result really.

Hazard is under proper threat now as it looks like he may even be rested thursday, Silva for a hit possibly.

FutureGuy

0-0. Of course it's 0 fcuking 0

Mertesacker added to the list of enemies

Why is he under proper threat. Has Mourinho said he'll be rested?

Proper threat from me nevermind Mourinho! Fully expect him to be on the bench against Swansea.
Silva is on my radar and i was looking for a reason to get him in and i am happy to use tonights events.

And if not for Koscielny's injury, I'd have shared in this bounty. Thin-fleshed b****** :P

Paully D

27 from four players tonight gives me a grand total of 79 (-4). Very happy with that. Could have been much better with a further 9 from Wes Brown if he hadn't been insanely stupid though.

wonski

Bonus points added - 3 for Mert(:D) and Vermaelen, 1 for Gibbs.
Total score of 86 for me. Happy with that, but I doubt i will get back to 500k. 580k before this game, and scored 15 points tonight...

Sorry, I'm an idiot. I counted Ramsey and Hazard as getting 6 each, when I should have counted 3. 21 from four. Time for bed!

wonski

Dreamteam looks great this week with Adebeayor and Crouch, and the rest...

Soby

This into the big time now next week with the cup

dahat

79 all in for the week.

Jumped from 132k to 112k after Sat but expect to drop back a good bit on update.

Knee jerked Silva in for Hazard, i doubt he will start v Swansea and i reckon Silva will give me better returns from here in

Actually 27 from four was possible, was just wondering what combination of defenders did you use;)

roryc

15 from Mert, Ramsey & Hazard. Leaves me on a forgettable 74 (-4) for the week. Bring on Boxing Day football.

Played 4 midfielders this week (Ramsey, Hazard, Nasri, Coutinho) and none scored above 3 points.

CSF

Worst. Week. Ever. A thoroughly embarassing 52 points despite having Suarez as captain.

roryc

Jesus. I thought mine was bad. Sub 60 is a shocking week.

masti123

83 points, not bad could've been alot better though

I'm on exactly 60 if you ignore the transfer hit, but it makes no sense to ignore the hit. I've gone from a top 5000 finish last year to 136535 in the world. This year is not going to plan at all.

You sir need a WC badly i imagine.

HighClass

Finished on 81. Only thing that's annoying me is I brought in Mig this week and left Szczesny on the bench. Hopefully will see some green arrows!

Try top 3,000 to 468,000. Haven't checked where I am after tonight but it ain't going to be much better than 468,000

GLaDOS

69 for the week, thoroughly average

BNMC

69 -16 for the week. A shocker considering the hit. My defence has let me down big time this year. Got rid of Ivanovic after conceding against Palace, Hull, etc. Then he goes and gets a CS away to Arsenal. FFS!

Things can only get better. Roll on St. Stephen's Day...

dahat wrote: »

Not as much as you might think. I'll still greatly appreciate it no doubt, but with Ozil, Hazard, Lukaku and Negredo not delivering the returns I would expect I'd put it down to a disastrous week rather than a disastrous team. Those are players you wouldn't be surprised at all to see have a really good spell over the next 2 GWs.

Benimar

Mignolet, Ollson, Pieters, Ramsey, Oscar, Miralles, Shelvey and Lukaku. 8 players, current cost 53.6 million, total points return this week: 16.

Sweet Jesus.

I also suffered from 4 of those 8. Add in Skrtel and Distin for me with Ozil and Hazard nothing to shout about either, and its a pretty disastrous week all around.

Add to that Suarez(C) and you would score 48 + Cabaye, Mert and Rooney would make the total of 79. Not too bad. Picking 8 players who did nothing this week, and cost 50m is pointless really.

IsMiseMyself

73. Not good. Not exactly a high scoring week come Thursday either. Half considering shipping Ramsey out.

Not when the world and it's mother had Suarez(c) and Coleman, 2 of the 3 who did score. Also your 79 comes from 12 players, 1 I don't have and 1 I didn't play.

Your combo gives 68-70 for 11 players which would be the 2nd worst score of the top 20 in my ML.

Why? He still brings the points. Tonight was a terrible game for all involved, but I wouldn't blame him for lack of points there tbh.

Haha, I was going to go and look for that comment. I knew Jose would be happy with a 0-0 away.

I needed 17 from Mert, Terry and Ozil. I got 18! What a result. 79 to 80 to me. Through to the last 32.

Did you go out?

Sorry, added 1 too many, but blaming Mignolet, Ollson, Pieters, Ramsey, Oscar, Miralles, Shelvey and Lukaku for lack of points? Where is another 50m spent? What I said i could pick a team of 11 worth 120m, and they could have scored less than Suarez;)
Suarez (C) was a must have this week, Coleman - just an option. Few other defenders - Newcastle/Arsenal/Chelsea scored well, too.
You can't just pick 8 players - where half of them are crap (bar Mignolet), and expect great return. The Shelvey bandwagon started when the guy forgot which team he was in (Swansea-Liverpool game). Last season he celebrated a goal he didn't even score. He was and is - imo - that bad.

Well and truly by 11 points in the end.

76(-4) is not a disaster but I've just gone from 4 weeks hovering around the 50k mark to just outside the top 100k in two weeks. :mad:

Still gonna get rid of Terry I think. Coleman a better option till WC time I think.

roryc

Fallen all the way back to 86k. Hopefully Thursdays games are kind to me. Could do with Arsenal having a field day (to nil) against West Ham and Everton doing the same at home to Sunderland.
