Gameweek 23 Matchday thread

sheroman01

First WC GW. 62pts with Sterling to play. Green arrow from 65k to 55k. Thought I'd be a bit further up but no complaints. I actually need Sterling to stay quiet enough tomorrow, main rival has him captained.

Alonso’s effort off the post was a header from a set piece
He offered absolutely NOTHING attacking wise from open play again
No idea why I stuck with him so long

He was also lucky to escape a card........what color is up for debate

I'm not a Chelsea fan, but from comments I've read from Chelsea fans online, the general consensus is that he needs to be dropped. Interested to see if that happens. (I no longer own him either).

57 points after wildcard. Sterling, Sané and Alli left to make it a successful one. Like Olé's seven consecutive PL victories, seven consecutive green arrows!

That’s been said for years though to be fair and never happens
He has ALWAYS been a very limited defender but a good FF option
This season he has not been and I held him for way way way too long

That Digne own goal is really boiling my p!ss

Fully 25 yards out ffs

breffni bogballer

Me too,surely Redmond has to get that assist

# justice for redmond

Bednarek nearly got an assist today !

I am choosing to blame Redmond the useless flute

Southampton looked decent today
Glad I stuck with Bednarek now as my fifth defender
Ings looked very good

Once again Andy Carroll’s return to fitness for a few weeks has coincided with their form dropping..............

Just seennthe fraser non Assist (i sold him )
ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS
How do they know who his intended target was ? It was surely Wilson!!!!!!!!

It’s gone beyond a joke now

I have no Bournemouth players so just assumed he got an assist when I saw the goal on MOTD.

Just checked there when I saw your comment and very surprised it wasn’t given. Wilson was 100% his intended target.

Think I may have missed a trick by ignoring heaton on wildcard.

km79

Just seen Gerry D was sent straight through after 2 mins and missed

And then I remembered what a nearly man he has always been

In other news i don’t think we can dispute now that Joe Hart was a big part of the Burnley defensive Issues
Heaton back and ........

Reading through here everyone has sane tomorrow. Guaranteed two pointer.

Coming off the bench for a one point cameo

COH

Currently on 50 (no hits) with Kun and Mitro to play... so fully expect to finish the gameweek on 51 :rolleyes:

Not the worst score but triple Chelsea ruined the GW... wanted to get rid of Alonso and Haz but the Kane/TAA injuries meant having to stick with them. Probably give them all another week now too (thats the trap!).

Need something special from them to stay in the cup too as 12 points down and Rival has Bilva to play (and Kings 8 pointer to come in of he doesnt).

Up two K to 8.5K overnight. With no one playing today it will take a series of miracles from today's games to prevent another red arrow overall this week.

SlickRic

Up 200 or so places to 701 with 64.

Fúcking ridiculous nosebleed again.

Sané and Laporte could conceivably still improve things. Or Sterling and Aguero could damage things.

Any chance of retrospective action for Salah for that dive?

You could probably copy and paste that most weeks. He seems to have found the balance just about right in terms of going down easy but not quite being seen to be diving.

He will get the same as Vardy got last week for his blatant dive.

Chesty08

Up to 32k from 50k.

71 with 2 from Bednarek to come in, Sterling & Alli to go.

A goal apiece today and could have a nice bounce off my wildcard and being happy with my team setup for the next few matches.

Today is crucial though to how I feel about triggering it early

FHFC

What was the story with Doherty? Any reason given or just rotation.

His partner had a child during the week was a suggestion.

Was hoping that a bid of €25m had come in for him...with Bohs getting 10%

Hoping Sane will do the business for you today... and me

Best of luck, serious score!

Dempsey

Im 63 with 6 to come off the bench, no players left to play. ManC will probably do serious damage and ruin my day

tailgunner

63 with Trippier and Sterling to go.

CSWS101

Aguero, Sane, Sterling, KDB start

The one positive of Pep rotation is that those who have Aguero or Sterling (of which there are currently few) won't captain them. So while hauls would hurt, they wouldn't destroy you.

And it's Huddersfield away. This could be a murderous game of football.

spock.

Bilva benching is a bigger deal than I thought, in a lot if teams.

bantee

Ederson, Raheem & Kun do your thang

Dilva not in squad either.

Just really shows what we are up against here with that squad.

Pissartist

I have sterling and Kun, stones on the bench, 2 from 3 hewt

manual_man

9 out of 11 in the Pep Roulette Challenge. Sterling and Aguero are 2 of those 9 - do your thing boys

Lemlin

Need a big score from Kun.

Green&Red

These seem like two pivotal games today. A lot of people have moved away from city and it’s a new look Spurs. I’m on Sterling (C) and Alli. It’s massive for me

Dilva is on the bench. As is Bilva. Look for the comma!!

bohsman

Finally got something right, brought Kun in and see a lot of my rivals brought Jesus in.

Ninthlife

Anything more than 3 points from Aguero today will see me move up 2 places in my work league. First green arrow in ages.

Also have Llorente in the later game so hopefully I can move even further up
