    Pelle and Tadic?
    Well and all as they are playing do you want to throw that many eggs in the Southampton attacking basket?

    I've had both of them for a while. They have an excellent next 4 fixtures. After that, probably one would be enough, but definitely viable for the next 4 weeks

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,256 ✭✭✭✭km79

    Buy him a pint the next night you see him out


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    What a crazy day. Even after Aguero running riot I don't think I would have been any better or worse off had I brought him in.

    Pelle C now and Boyd off the bench.

    34 with 13 for Pelle and Boyd to come in with 7. Bonus for Fab (2), Welbeck (3) and Pelle (2x2).

    Close to 60 with 3 mids to play and keeper.

    16 from 5, feck everything. Maybe Falcao can save the week by scoring two hat tricks or something, I think it's more likely that he'll be sent off...

    58 plus 6 to come in from bench. Should pick up good few bonus points as well. aguero as vc so his points to double. Happy enough. 3 to play tomorrow

    That one is a lost cause for me unfortunately


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    81 with Wilson, Siggy, Sterling & DiMaria still to play.. I did say this would be an insane week!

    Who comes out for Tadic and/or Pelle??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Boo. The day was going so well I had started hopin I'd get the Moore clean sheet.

    Will happily settle for 83 incl current bps from 8 if Newcastle don't score again. ADM, Sterling and Siggy to play.

    First really good week of the season. Will blow away a good few in my private leagues where aguero is rare. Pelle too. Yis are a bit more on the ball around here.

    I just lost two points with Welbeck dropping to one bap so who knows. DDG still to play for you

    Oh sweet Jesus. You poor man!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Coloccini cleanie :)

    Boom!

    Hmm. I need a ddg clean sheet and a peno save it seems. Highly unlikely


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,358 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Krul you beaut.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    40 points with Aguero's to be doubled and bonus to come for Pelle and Aguero. Moore to sub in with 1 also.

    Taylor, Siggy, Sterling and Di Maria left.

    Boom!

    Super. And a probable bonus by the looks of it


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    64 points after baps and auto subs with Sterling, Siggy, and ADM to play. Will be (much) higher scores, but I expect to be top 100k.


  • Registered Users Posts: 249 ✭✭pollocks


    70 from 10 not too shabby...meanwhile normal service resumes for John o Shea


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    I hate you all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,424 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    66 with siggy and di maria to play and BPS still to come.

    delighted with that outcome

    Or cleanie, two save points, and a bap. Those two -2s really killed you, otherwise it would be super tight.

    5 points from 5 as it is. Still have Ulloa playing but I'm not holding my breath. To say that it didn't go to plan would be the understatment of the century :D

    Di Maria(c), Falcao, Sterling & Siggy need to get about 10 goals between them for this not to ruin my season...be grand.

    I really feel for you. Here's hoping ADM can do the business big time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    We should all thank the new mod Nody for this glorious gameweek!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    72(-4) after bps after krul's clean sheet with siggy,sterling,ADM to play. Happy with that, as I don't have aguero or tadic


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,064 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno


    45 inc bps with 4 to play. Didn't have aguero so hope cap falcao gets a few on Monday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    43 with BPS included, need Falcao to score a few


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,121 ✭✭✭G1032


    60 points with Siggy, Fabianski, Sterling and Di Maria to play

    Bonus to come from Aguero (6), Welbeck (1), Fabregas (2) and maybe a further 1 from Coloccini.

    Pelle was looking like a 1 man GW destroyer for a while but Welbeck and Wanyama managed to pull a couple of goals out of the bag and save my week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,316 ✭✭✭kevohmsford


    No Costa or Dzeko today with Azpilicueta getting sent off. At least I have Schneiderlin and Dummett on the bench.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,194 ✭✭✭FatRat


    76 from 6. Aguero as captain and Tadic really did the trick. A great post-wildcard week I must say!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    68 including expected bonus, the armband switching to my VC Aguero, and the minus points for van Aanholt. The only blot on my copybook today was going for the aforementioned van Aanholt over Boyd as my first substitute but I really can't complain at all about that.

    Mignolet, Wilson, Taylor, Sterling and Sigurdsson to play tomorrow.

    Lol,I went with the news that Krul was out & along with Newcastle being junk I swapped him for Manonne :o,hoping for a big showing from captain Falcao & friends to rescue my GW.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    54, 5 to play. Alright.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,772 ✭✭✭P.Walnuts


    Brought Hazard in for Cesc

    No Bueno


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭LostBoy101


    Thank god Aguero is my VC so now Costa can transfer it over.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    69 its looking like with 4 to play. Needed a big score.

    Apologies, I recommend PvA over Boyd.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    I have 4 clean sheets from 4, Krul, Dummett, Clyne and Baines. I think I'll be on 79 with three left to play. Very happy with that obviously, only disappointment is that Clyne's 6 is all I get from the Southampton game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    This is really a crazy week.

    Aguero, Pellè, Tadic, Baines got huuuuuuge score and they were all captained here, though Aguero certainly was the most selected.

    Then, Boyd, Obertan and Wanyama scored. Nice autosubs in for Costa ;). For all the ones who consider an 8 strong (enough) players attacking force, this GW just shows that the 5th cheap playing MF is absolutely worth it. Unfortunately mine's King and have Naylor to sub in for Costa.

    And I kept the craziest thing for last. Newcastle CS :eek::eek::eek:. Glad I banked my transfer and kept Krul now. I'd lie if I didn't mention that him staying on 2 saves only doesn't bother me :D. But his points are so unexpected that I'll happily take them :).

    Only annoyance today, even more than Ulloa uselessness and Pellè masterclass (but in all honesty I'd have needed serious team rearrangement to afford that move) is Chelsea conceding at the end...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,737 ✭✭✭larchielads


    85 with di maria and siggy to play. Waitin on bps and cattermole as my sub as costa didnt play. I know its only 1 point for him but they all count. Taking a hit of -4 at the end of it all.

    Looks like our FSA PL H2H game is going down to the wire. I'm currently three ahead. Moore subbing in will push me 4 and two bps for Pelle will push me 6 ahead. We both then have Siggy, Di Maria, Sterling and Taylor left.

    So you need 6 from Wilson by my calculations for the draw or 6+ for a win. Could easily happen.
