dropped 400 places to 1.9k after 51 pts.
Hackers made unbelievable headway in a couple of my pay leagues. If he had captained sanchez instead of hazard he would have had the highest score in the world this week. A remarkable gw fair play.

He had him VC as well! To put 50 points into a lot of people in a single GW is remarkable

I'm resigned to the fact that I am not going to win my money league this year. 3rd and 4th had Sanchez. 2nd, 3rd and 4th are 16, 26 and 38 points behind me so it's likely one will catch me.

Get that negative thinking out of your head, of course you can win it, get Sanchez in now and any other Arsenal players they have to negate the chances in GW37. Keep an eye on their team value daily and you'll know what transfers they've made before deadline.

Why such pessimism? You're still ahead. Can't you buy Sanchez as a blocker for example?

Exactly. And there's me trying to find a source of optimism when 27 points behind!!!

91 points.

GW rank of 1680

Jumped from 42k to 20k.

Hello top 10k, in 3 weeks I'll be joining you! This is a great lesson in why not being a complete fecking eejit for half the season when I got bored and one week can change everything!

Similar to me, I had my best week this week with 84(-4) with the hit being for Sanchez jumping up to 16k from 27k. I also made a lot of ****e transfers earlier in the season for points hits so have only made afew in the 2nd half of the season which is working out for me so far.

I get his pessimism to be honest. Last year I was 80 points ahead of a lad with something like seven or eight GWs left. From then on I could do nothing right and he could do nothing wrong. It was inevitable that he'd beat me and I could just feel it coming each week. It's a lot easier to chase than to lead the pack I found.

He beat me by seven points on the final day last year. If I'd captained Sturridge instead of Suarez and played Mata instead of Lallana I'd have beaten him.

I understand that. But, since I was in the same position than you last year in my private league (but managed to win it by 7 pts ), are we not getting over-parano at times about the teams chasing us when we're leading? Like over-analysing their moves, trying to counter them (like making blocking transfers) instead of making the transfers which are best for our team, etc... ?

And I know that, while saying that, I adviced FutureGuy to make a blocker move :pac:. But I'd say there are 2 categories of players. And someone so highly owned and performing like he is (Sanchez) deserves to be used as a blocker. I mean you can differentiate and take the risks elsewhere. Like associating him wiith Ramsey and/or getting Benteke upfront and/or a Leicester def (they still have favourable enough fixtures and have something to play for).

54 points brings my 8th Red arrow in a row and seems me drop outside the top 1000 for the first time since GW17 :mad:

8 in a row and you stayed in the top 1k until now? You must've been fairly high up?:rolleyes:

Few days later and I'm still sad I missed the deadline on Benteke. Note to self: ignore work. Do FPL first.

It's not really the number of reds, but the size. DGW31 killed me, I'd much rather have had 8 small reds in a row

127k

Or 3.3k, consistency has been the key for me this season.

I am so ready for the end of the season. Can keep interested in it. My ranking has dropped from 8k to 10k in the last few weeks and am out of ideas!
Will just keep threading water until the GW38 deadline!
