He's busy stinging with that tail of his!!

Mr.Nice Guy

48 pts. My first sub-50 score this season.

I'm paying the price for not bringing in Hazard and keeping faith with Salah and Mane. Thing is I think both could do very nicely against Huddersfield so I'm not sure if I should lose faith just yet. One of those situations where I just know as soon as I sell one or both they'll explode into life. I've dropped down to 83k.

Benched VVD and Ederson...expected goals. Luckily captain hazard, docherty and co scored points and kept me somewhat respectable.

Scorpion Sting

82 points, up to 97 in the world.

Up 25k to 377k with 64(-4). Wildcard now is huge for me. The gains people have made on wildcard this year has for the majority been massive. Wolves defence and hazard have performed better than anyone could have imagined. I got in hazard this week but if truth be told i wouldnt have got him in on an earlier wildcard as I have massive trust issues with him. He seems a different player this year but I needed more proof as Ive been burnt so many times by him. Doherty on the otherhand would have been a banker for me on an earlier wildcard.

A poorish 51 sees me drop about 8k, just clinging to a top 10k spot for now.

That's 30 points!

Even if I hadn't sold King it would have been a poor week.

But 30 points!

I'm making a balls of my half decent start.

30 bloody points!

At least I only left 3 points in total on my bench, so I chose the right players available within the squad.

Pop quiz: If your bench has 3 points and equates to 10% of the points actually scored by your team. How many points did your team score?

30 points!

Let the record state:

GW rank - 5.39 Million

Overall rank - 543k

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed

gammygils

66 and a green arrow for 2nd week in a row Into the top 2m (1,918k)

Made 2 late changes to my team - Switched the armband from Vardy to Haz
And swapped Wilson out for Mane

Absolutely brilliant

Rikand

54 points and an OR drop of 50k to 500,000

Necronomicon

70 all out. I was surprised and a tad disappointed that Sunday's showing only resulted in a small green arrow (2k) from my Saturday evening OR, but I'm happy ending the gameweek at 114k.

And I thought I was going well being just outside 1K! Fantastic going. Well done. Second to you on Zarquons Pay league doesn't feel too bad now! .

42 points this week.

Two poor weeks in a row sees me drop from 7k to 94k.

No room for mediocre scores in this game.

Pretty unforgiving this season alright. So many good managers highly ranked. Good time to take stock of the season to date actually with us being almost 1/4 of the way through and a two week international break upon us.

Maybe someone will start a thread....

The standard of scoring seems higher than other seasons at this stage. I've an average score of 64 points per week so far and that gives me a rank of 90k. I know it's still fairly tightly bunched at the moment but that's quite a high standard.

That’s a great achievement in itself. I had set a target to finish in the top 1k by season’s end but to be in the top 100 by GW8 has far exceeded my expectations. Just trying to keep a level head now and take it one gameweek at a time.
