    By a point. Just saw it LOL. Some yoyo battle underway. 3rd place within touching distance as well.

    I’m going to be a nervous wreck for the next week.

    No player tonight , hope for 1-1 and 2 own goals. I think 2/3 have nobody either

    At least with the match tonight you can work out who has him and who doesn't.

    Pope is the main player tomorrow. I have him. I have no one on Sunday. People might have Soyuncu as a defender and he is gone for the season.

    I think it's gonna be a tight match, I don't see West Ham going goal crazy again with so much on the line.

    I literally feared another Antonio goal fest after that goal in 5 mins. Could have been worse.hopefully second place has nobody and will stay first.

    yeah feel a bit relieved. Just the 8 points feels like a bit of a letoff

    Still first overall another day closer.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭claw


    Back up 600 places to 4200 thanks to Antonio. Some differential he is. Dream result against United on Wednesday for me would be West Ham winning to nil and him scoring all the goals :D

    Doesn't look like any of your rivals have Antonio.

    Yea I was fairly confident none would have thankfully they didn’t.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    Back to 39th but won't last long as I have nobody today. I put a bet on Chris Wood to score a header to ease the inevitable pain when he scores.

    he's very low owned. Pope has decent ownership. Tarkowski probably next, maybe a few got Long in as a direct swap for Soyuncu

    Ah I know, it will just annoy me as it should have been my last transfer.

    might be handier to have it for the last day when City play Norwich. I could see them putting 6 or 7 past them

    Same here! No players playing tomorrow though so hoping everyone gets sent off :)

    Still first and 19 points ahead of second place now. Holy ****

    Thankfully. I’m pretty sure 2nd will have no player tomorrow


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


    Up to 108th myself. Not totally out of the running in the money leagues, but will need some captain differentials to come good. If DCL would score a goal away to Sheff Utd i'd never say a bad word about him again! :pac: :D

    Pope captain has me going up another 500 places to 3700. Amazing 2 differentials Antonio and any Burnley player who does anything are. Fair play to Donegal for using his transfer yesterday. Very good chance of more Burnley points next week too.

    I have actually had Pope for a while didn’t need to make a transfer yesterday.

    Took him out for Henderson a few weeks back. The first game I had Pope was the Man City game. Gave me -4 points as captain since I had no Man City players.

    All the better! I got confused by manual_man saying that someone had made a transfer. I took out Henderson for Pope after the City match. Has been a great signing.

    How good has Ings been though

    Pity about the penalty miss. Had he scored it we'd likely be looking at 22 extra points as captainers


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


    Cannot believe 26.5% of top 1k have Kane

    You wonder if people who still had a transfer left put him in for a punt. Seems a very high percentage. If I had had a transfer today I would have put in Ings.


  • Registered Users Posts: 523 ✭✭✭Donegal1234


    Still same gap same position. Another day closer to the goal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭claw


    Egan, Baldock and Traore tonight. Captaining Egan, would captain Traore if I knew he would definitely start.


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


    Glad the Sheff Utd CS is gone, but come on, DCL, do something!


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


    For comparison: in the last 11 games pre lockdown DCL returned 8 goals and an assist. Since restart: nothing. nada. zilch.

    That's cos he is crap :) Not happy with Sheffield United letting in a goal. Everton are completely pointless. Will no doubt lose on Sunday to Bournemouth.


  • Registered Users Posts: 523 ✭✭✭Donegal1234


    Was a nervous wreck watching that game, happy jiminez didn’t score.


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


    Looks like i'll be relying on my Man U assets to bail me out once more. Martial will get the armband i think. Have Foden and KdB tomorrow - how do we think City will lineup? I'm seeing a lot of rotation.

    God knows with. I’d be fairly sure foden will start for city since he was rested on sunday.

    I’d say v Norwich they might play a few kids , meaning less game and city have Real Madrid soon.

    Doherty captain tonight, hopefully a nice jump after that.

    i think they'll put out a strong lineup vs Norwich what with it being Dilva's last league game - also it's their last game before they face Madrid in terms of match rythym. Minutes will definitely be managed though.

    24 points ahead of second now. This is getting serious now holy crap.

    Think the fella that was 2nd had Jimenez cos I have been following his scores. Next 2 days are massive.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭claw


    Traore and Sheffield United blank dropped me a couple of hundred places.Happy overall with it though.

    Yea I knew he had him. Was scared looking at the tv. If he had of got a goal he would have for 9 points and 18 from captain.

    Today and tomorrow are absolutely huge for me.

    All about the captains now. From 2nd down there isn't a lot in it so you wonder would they risk their captaincies or play it safe. I think this game is great, every day matters.


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


    Foden and KDB start. I'll take that.
