    6 figure overall rank for first time this year!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Anybody know what the story was with Muniesa...was he dropped or was it an injury?


  • Registered Users Posts: 973 ✭✭✭internet_user


    60 all out, up from 1.3mil to 370k, will drop back after all games of course but still happy!

    Should have had the gut to captain Mahrez... But glad I didn't give in to Kolarov's appeal. Now let's hope Agüero repays the faith vs his preferred team next week!

    41 with 1 to go. Looks so so...

    My 44 post bonus fired me up to 55k :eek:...

    Average is only 29 :eek:...

    I see that as a very bad sign since my 2 best scorers (Mahrez & Agüero) are owned by 47% & 32% managers respectively. I just have Myhill & Wilson with 7 pts as "differentials". My 6 other players only returned 9 pts.
    My take on that is most managers have 2 to 3 players featuring tomorrow. I'm gonna need a mare from both 'Pool & United not to fall behind too much tomorrow.

    Assuming dropped since he was on bench

    Wilson isn't really a differential either. 44 will be average unless Tekkers lights up the place. Not too many other dangerous, high ownerships. Might be some jammy autosubs

    I'm on 289 and am at 64k. So 7 points is worth 30k places!

    60 took me from 300 to 45k....madness

    Yes and 300 gets you 25.9k !


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭DarraghF197


    In successive gameweeks, I've dropped from 2.1 million, to 1.4 million and now am just under 400K :) Big turnaround for my season.

    I put Payet in for him last week so that worked out. But forgot to change team.

    Worked out again!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,345 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    Ah FFS, just watching MOTD... That Richards goal would have made a massive difference for me.

    Ah yeah you're right he's owned by 28% managers (*) (I thought I had read 13%).

    Anyway, don't get me wrong, I thought I was having a dreadful GW (it still may be the case tomorrow eve :o) so quite couldn't believe it when I saw my green arrow up to 55k!


    ---
    (*). Have a spelling question that keeps annoying me here. Do you say 20% managers or 20% of managers ?

    20% of managers :-)


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


    Phew. Near the end of motd i was thinking i was having a disaster week. Then heros stepped up in the last 2 games. Well done Myhill and Naughton (silenced the doubters :)).

    How did Yaya not get at least one goal!

    49 from 10 and a big jump to 170k but Benteke will smash me tomorrow. Gomez to play, but quite possibly Souare by the looks of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    53pts sees me rise a mammoth almost 850k places to 642k. Good god. Just shows how tightly packed things are. Tekkers(c) and Gomez(who I think will play) left to play. Souare first def sub if Gomez misses out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Wow, my 41(-4) bumped me 55k places, from 227k to 172k. I was actually anticipating a small drop.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,303 ✭✭✭Mike Ehrmantraut


    56 Pts from 10, with Darmien to play tomorrow, delighted with the 56, just hoping Benteke doesn't do damage tomorrow


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,230 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS


    49 points halves my OR and leaves me at 600k. Have 5 points coming off the bench and Gomez and Hoolahan left to go.

    Was at 2.3m after GW4, amazing what 2 good weeks can do given the results so far.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Hoping for a Gomez goal/assist and then for Wessi to go absolutely nuts


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 102 ✭✭My Darling Clementine


    Anyone know if Joe Gomez or Matt Targett will start today?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,816 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007

    Brendan Rogers probably knows about Gomez but don't think he posts here

    In other news United to win 4-0 would be very nice :)


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


    My 34 has seen a tiny rise today. However, I expect BAD things from today so I'm going out for the day and not looking at the scores till I come back.


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


    I'm pretty much the only person without a Liverpool defender of mignolet in top half of my league and a fair few have benteke as well.........
    also finally seen the butland assist! Morgan clearly kicked it can't believe it was given

    On 45 with Martin and chadli to go. Does anybody know if you automatically get your all out attack chip if only 2 defs play.

    No. I thought that would be fairly obvious no?:P


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


    The average team has 7 played. 4 to go and 11.4% Benteke captained.

    Having gone up from 400k to 170 i expect to go dramatically back to where i started today with just Gomez.

    That Liverpool leaked team is bizarre. I know that lad is always right but starting Sturridge without having had a minute of competitive ball under his belt would be nuts and a sign BR is losing the plot imo. They should be expecting to beat Norwich comfortably without rushing back a guy who's been out this long. Its not as if its a huge crunch game.

    Even more surprised by my moving up to 134k. Guess that reflects that this was less of a week for the casuals. I still have 4 to play so I could move up a lot if the day goes well.

    The fact that I rose 100k overall, and rose in all my mini leagues except boards and FFS ones says a lot about the type of player who had a good day yesterday.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Well, that game was unbelievable :D

    I hope more will jump on the Ighalo train here. He's some finisher! Moved up to 150k from 290k with 44 points. Gomez and Ruddy to play today so expecting to fall back a bit.


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


    As well as that you'd expect a mole in the Liverpool camp to be tossed out fairly lively, you wouldn't get that with Finn Harps:confused:

    I'll be amazed if it's the correct team. With Sturrudge's problems, it'd been downright irresponsible of BR, if nothing else, to rush him back.

    Best way of finding out the culprit though - if you think it's one of say 4 people tell each a different starting team, I.e one with Gomez and struiddge starting etc and should be able to find the mole easy

    Doesn't work so well here though. There'll have been extreme detail put into the preparation for this game based on the starting lineup.

    Last season people knew the Liverpool team frequently based on the bib theory, which was also due to the early match preparation.

    Do you sacrifice your preferred match preparation to keep the team secret? I know Mourinho is excellent at keeping his team news secret but I don't really know what the trick to that is other than having trustworthy people around you.

    42 points with Fletcher's 3 to come in along with Ruddy, Pelle and Gomez or Huth's 1 point.

    I broke 7 digits though and sit at 855k. Ruddy to pull a rabbit out of the hat against Bentekerrs today would be glorious. He owes me. Not that I'm too hopeful mind :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,902 ✭✭✭MagicIRL


    Thank me later lads. As soon as I put Hazard on the bench he goes and scores. Took one for the Boards team!

    I'm on 50 at the moment with Rojo, Redmond and Martin to play.

    Who did you play instead of him? Wouldn't have thought of Hazard as the benching type, very much play or sell.

    I've had him all season - took a chance and dropped Payet in against City away instead of Hazard, so it only half-backfired really. :)

    I've uploaded a SS of my team in case you're curious.

    That's the best bench I've ever seen, Sanchez, Hazard and Gomez (who may well play at home to Norwich)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,406 ✭✭✭PirateShampoo


    Finished up on 41 with 3 left to play.

    That said they are all United players. Depay, Darmain and DeGea

    i know i'm doing crap this season, but i wouldn't have benched the 2 norwich lads ahead of Sanchez and Hazard.

    I think the Martin and Redmond ships have already set sail and won't be doing much again lately, Norwich aren't great for keeping CS.

    I've also gone into six figures, up to 600k (from 1.4m) with Benteke and Skertl to play today, brought Skertl in as a two week punt knowing my wildcard was gonna be used soon.

    On the wildcard since last night.

    I thought the Arsenal Chelsea game would be a 0-0 waste of 90mins so benched both of them.

    Martin and Redmond are both goal threats which (up until yesterday) Sanchez and Hazard were not! :cool:
