Trailing by 1 point to SantryRed. My Firmino, Coutinho, Walcott, Austin and Evans vs Santry's Mané, Redmond, Capoue and Foster +1.

Won well in the end, the good run continues.

Jeju

My Sterling to Hazard transfer won me this tie, still in 2ND spot as the pace setter is showing no signs of slipping up.

AdpRo

Won again, 2 in a row, we're on a roll!

Scorpion Sting

I need Evans to score 7 points or more to win against Legwinski.

Scorpion Sting

I ended up with a draw in the end to remain in 4th. It's a pity I couldn't take advantage of my opponent's 8 point hit.

wonski

Second win in a row, up to 18th

Slowly getting out of the relegation zone.

Scorpion Sting

Secured another win this week. I've now lost only once in my last 9 games.

Hogey007

In a good position in mine but def not over. I'm 6 ahead with pickford to sub in to make it a 9 point lead. We both have firmino with my Lovren +9 versus Can.

Looks like I lost that one after all.

Scorpion Sting

Second defeat in a row after losing to wonski. Dropped to fifth.

AdpRo

6 wins in the last 7 wks has seen me climb from just outside the relagation zone to being right on your tail in 6th.

Up to 13th.

I need to win some games, too

Your premium defenders came up trumps and smashed my budget lads. Good luck with your quest on climbing the table. As an aside, we're a real quiet bunch here aren't we! Only 3 or 4 frequent posters and the rest fluttering away behind the scenes.

wonski

They are afraid that we will keep following their posts in transfers and captains threads when they disclose themselves

Re my defence, that is the first time this season they outscored the rest. Average 6.6 per player.

Starting Amat worked Every time I type in his name, auto-correct screams Amateur! That is a sign to get rid of him now before it's too late.

Scorpion Sting

My budget defence is just about holding its own but I think it may be time for a few upgrades soon.

I can't believe I waited so long to bring Alonso, looking at his last points I am worried he might not keep his good run for long enough.

I don't even mind I sold Coleman for him this week. This would make me stick with Coleman for another 2-3 dry weeks.

Heaton will be a season long keeper I think. Even without a clean sheet there is an extra point or two for saves. Good enough for me.

Scorpion Sting

I've been eyeing Alonso as a potential transfer for about 3 weeks now and have always had other priorities but hopefully next week I can get him in. Yeah Heaton is great value alright, will be staying in my time the whole season for sure.

AdpRo

Looking good for another win here unless Lallana gets over 25 pts.

Scorpion Sting

Back to winning ways for me. Have a 5 point lead over InishGael and we both have Firmino left.

Scorpion Sting

Another win for me and I remain in 3rd.

EDIT: Was looking at the old table, I move up to 2nd!

ItsChecoTime

Followed 5 losses in a row with 3 wins in a row to get back up to 8th, hopefully I can continue this run for a bit longer

AdpRo

One of the only bright spots in a bad week, another win and up to 4th now, it's very tight between 2nd and 10th for the promotion places, a couple of losses in a row and you could drop right back.

This week's win made me jump four places from 16th to 12th

It is very tight down there indeed.

Scorpion Sting

TaytoCrisps' Eriksen, Allen, Alderweireld and Grant +13 vs my Sanchez (c), Benteke, Alli and Koscielny. C'mon Alexis!

6 point lead with Eriksen and Alderweireld v Alli left to play. Need a win to start to try and pull away from the relegation battle !

Didn't think i had a chance after i had seen you played your wildcard

Yeah I got unlucky with Friend being benched and coming on 3 minutes after the clean sheet threshold passed. It could have been 8 or 9 points for Friend if he had started.

EDIT: Neil Taylor with a clean sheet on my bench too!

AdpRo

Nice win against the league leader this week, up to 4th and all very tight at the top.

TaytoCrisps

I might actually climb out of the relegation zone for the first time in ages this week barring lallana doing well which would doubly upset me as a united fan

Scorpion Sting

Trashed by the league leader Benimar who scored 100!

AdpRo

A draw and i stay in 4th. All very tight for the promotion places.

Scorpion Sting

A massive 1 point victory over AdpRo puts me back into third place.

AdpRo

On a bad run at the moment, needs to change quickly to stay in the promotion race!

Hogey007

Despite a poor week and losing most of my head to heads I narrowly won in this to climb up to 4th.

Scorpion Sting

I secured a 9-point victory over mhaigheo but I stay in third as the top 2 also won.

GLaDOS

Just about clinging onto 2nd place. Very tough race for promotion.

Playing 3rd place next week!

Yeah just noticed that, this is a massive tie!

AdpRo

Lost by 1 last week and 3 this week slipping from 3rd to 8th, not good.

Scorpion Sting

I've got a slender 2-point lead over GLaDOS and it comes down to my Alonso + 2 vs his Jesus (c), Costa and Stephen Ward. The odds are heavily stacked against me in this crucial tie.

GLaDOS

Alonso is definitely scoring twice again

Nah I doubt it. If he keeps a clean sheet I'll be happy.

Scorpion Sting

No Alonso clean sheet so I'm relying on attacking returns now.

Scorpion Sting

Damn, looks like I've lost then.

GLaDOS

Fairly stumbled over the line, but a massive 3 points!

wonski

Won 62-26 against a dead team.

9 points to the second place, everything is possible

AdpRo

Much needed win this week and back in contention, very tight for 2nd / 3rd / 4th in this league, still about 13 teams in with a chance of promotion.

Scorpion Sting

I need Mané and Coutinho to get 8 points or less (ideally 6 as that pair are in another H2H opponent's team) to win my tie against Hogey007. Probably 70/30 in Hogey's favour.

I could do with a big game from one or both of them. 13 points behind in another h2h with both of them to play. Interesting to see if Leicester improve after the events of last few days

Scorpion Sting

1 point loss and down to sixth.

Scorpion Sting

Skippy15's Aguero (TC), Kane and Baines +12 vs my Sterling x2, KDB x2, Lukaku, Alli and Randolph.

Mané and King killed me today and Aguero will likely kill me tomorrow.
