yes he's played a fair bit, just cause he's charged doesn't mean he's guilty.

Absolute belter from Defoe!!

I love Defoe, he's cost me about 1m in team value but that goal nearly makes up for it:P

How does Wickham get played over Fletcher?

Astounding.

Agreed but the stick he'll get on the pitch and distraction he'd cause I thought would outweigh playing him.

His massively important assist proves me wrong.

Alright now, Everton, time to stop arsing about and score!

On for 3 baps at the moment too! Very close though hopefully Jagielka can score otherwise he might lose out due to the winning goal bps.

The reverse jinx worked!

A great start to the GW with PVA. Huge stuff since none of my rivals have him.

Same for me. I imagine quite a few would have one of PVA or Panti on their bench. Keeping a cs away from home was not expected

Chesty08

Brought in PVA but never but left him on the bench!

Any chance Cahill or Bellerin could be rested now. Ta!

Chesty08

Looks like PVA is the second player on the team sheet for next week

The odds on lemlin signing danny graham for the dgw have just come in from 100,000-1 to 10,000-1

It actually crossed my mind to bring him in for the missus because she was planning to go for Defoe but Graham is the one playing through the middle.

BPS

30 Defoe
27 Graham
27 PVA
25 Panti

Come of Jermaine hold on to those 3!!

40.6% benched PVA, 21.8% benched Panti in top 10k. Problem will be if there are no shows like Hazard, Ramsey, etc. since I have PVA last sub :rolleyes:

Schmeichel & Schlupp here so no chance.

main rival in a private league is playing a 4-5-1 with Kelvin Davis in goal..... Panti is his sub

I'm leading, but with only 45 points of a lead with 3 gameweeks to go. it's gonna be tight!

If you were 45 behind you'd be like thats a giant gap but when you're in front it seems tiny! As long as you make sensible decisions you need to be pretty unlucky to finish behind them.

Graham 3, Defoe 2, Panti+PVA 1 after ESP

Bugger. I guess Defoe could easily have got sent off so the points are literally a bonus!

heh, I do look at his team and get worried.....

But if Aguero goes absolutely nuts today, I have nothing to worry about.

However, if Aguero is quiet and Arsenal go absolutely nuts, Ozil in particular, I'm probably bitched.

I'm
(+45 points)
and
Davis (mig)
Belly - Dawson - Terry - (Rose) - (Berty)
Hazard - Cesc - Sanchez - Ramsey - (Cambiasso)
Vardy - Aguero(C) - Kane

Versus

his

Davis (panti)
Ivanovic - terry - Mccauley - Stones - (clyne)
Ozil(C) - Sanchez - Coutinho - Hazard - Cazorla
Kane - (murray) - (nugent)

I don't think Ozil nuts will have you bitched maybe if he goes mega nuts you might only have a 10 point lead but if he only goes standard nuts then you should be ok. Aguero is more likely to go mega nuts than Ozil so if that happens its game over.

After that challenge on Coleman I was happy to get any positive score from him!

Defoe is blessed, could have received a second booking on many occasions. His goal was dubious as well. Around the 75 minute mark i would have dealt on him being subbed off for a one pointer. 7 points is a blessing.

Mahrez goal

Really regret going for Vardy over Ulloa now.

Of course we're disappointed when he looked in the clear for 3.

No Forster no party with them. The 2 backups are useless same thing happened last year.

Owner. He was my transfer this week for Murray. He had something like 29pts to Graham's 27 before the esp when I looked, didn't expect him to keep them but could have been worse.

Be disappointed all you like but I'd have taken 7pts before the game so we're not all doom and gloomers thanks

Mahrez again 2-0
