My cup opponent has Redmond as captain. I know how this ends.

Ditto.
My chap has a trio of Newcastle players culminating in Dwight Gayle Captain.
Actually, looking again he has Alli and Jesus on the bench so I'm definitely fucked.
Mine has captain De Gea.
He also has David Luiz.

Wait. I bring in a Burnely defender and the fucking twat who has played every fucking minute of every fucking game this season goes off after 40 minutes injured? And they're going to get a clean sheet? Really?
My guy has Pogba as captain with Eriksen as his vice.
He has 3 reds (Pogba, Toby and Baines) but he does have Dave and Alonso.
That Huddersfield goal is massive for me.
Benteke is utterly hopeless, but there's no way I'm ditching him and letting someone else enjoy his first goal of the season, if it does happen.
What a twat.
I've got Tarko, clearly the man.Originally Posted by niko_cee
The kiwi mincer I'm up against has Lukaku captain, Firmino and Salah despite not having made a single transfer all season. Basically the perfect lineup for tomorrow's games. He's going to fuck me up.
Dropping like a stone in the draft league, pipped this week by Christensen getting subbed off before Chelsea conceded.
Out of the cup comfortably in the main game. The guy had Redmond as captain and about 15 points left on the ebnch and I still didn't come close.
Need a wildcard
Lost in the cup due to De Gea and the late Spurs goal.
Mugged off by an inactive Indian
Through in the cup with a nice 52-32 win over New Zealand's finest. Silva and de Bruyne doing the heavy lifting yet again.
Triple captained Kane () but it paid off as those extra 2 points saw me through in the cup with a 36-35 shitfest.
I can’t even see my Cup fixtures. I was top 600k or so before this last game week - d’you have to be top 500k or something?
Lost 62-63 hahahahaha
Won my cup tie by a fairly narrow margin against some 3 million rank noob. Praise be to Maya Yoshida.
I've brought Lacazette in for Trashford ahead of the weekend. It's my first experience with an Arsenal player and like all first experiences, I'm shortly afterwards left wondering if it was really a good idea.
If I had not taken David Silva out I'd have a better than average gameweek more points.
He got 22 points and I got stuffed.Mine has captain De Gea.
I'm a twit
Christ, De Gea has only been outscored by Salah, De Bruyne, David Silva and Sterling so far this year.
You've joined me in being knocked out by someone with a shit team, congratulations.
Heard Lacazette is struggling with a groin injury
He is, but no way Weng will play Diaby LM after last night's showing. Sadly I've drawn someone ranked in the top 600,000 in the next round of the cup, and he's got a better team for this weekend than me. It was fun while it lasted.
I've got a Cannuck United fan who has 4 more points than me overall.
Reckon it should be fairly close, so this'll probably be the week Firmino scores 5 (he has him).
Lost to some Welsh nonce 2m places behind me. Fantastic.You've joined me in being knocked out by someone with a shit team, congratulations.
Heard Lacazette is struggling with a groin injury
Hopefully!
I’ve captained Rooney so expect another hat-trick. Although I’ve mostly done it so in the league with my mates they’re all like lol unlucky Baz we’ve almost caught you and then BAM, Big Sam’s Barmy Army score four past Swansea on Monday Night Football.

Hazard, Salah, David Silva, Lacazette or Calvert-Lewin as my captain this week? Decisions, decisions.
I've gone for Lacazette as captain.
Speroni; Otamendi, Monreal, Jones; Chupo-Moting, Salah, Hazard, David Silva; Kane, Lacazette (C), Calvert-Lewin
I've brought in Wayne Rooney so I can get David Silva in
He's not playing. Lol.
I'm pretty sure Pep exists mainly to troll fantasy managers... not even on the bench?
Might make the difference in my cup tie, my opponent has had some serious breaks.
Silva has a 'personal issue' apparently.
Shambles of a gameweek for me. Stuck with Courtois through easy games where he kept conceding, get rid of him and of course he keeps a clean sheet. Got rid of Mee as well. Idiot.
Cup I'm more or less level pegging and have my Jones, Fernandinho, Kane and Calvert-Lewin against his Otamendi, Lukaku and Aguero (we both have Kevin). Deadly Dom to decide it on Monday night.
Also I've only just realised that 'Zanka' and Matthias Jorgensen are the same person. Mind blown.
Just checked my draft team properly, best I've done for a good while, but Benteke has only gone and gotten himself suspended for his next game after finally scoring a goal. What a bastard.
It's fun looking back through my team over the weeks.
Started the season with Salah and De Bruyne. Sacked them off after a few weeks.
Rolled the dice and went with Kolasinac as this week’s captain (we’re struggling for goals, and it’s Arsenal away, where we always struggle) and he ended up being benched! The good news is that he didn’t get subbed on near the death, so Kane’s taken the armband and Bertrand’s 2 is coming into the team.
Swapped Hart and Femenia for Pickford and Jones this week.
My mate (biggest threat to my 1st place) has Otamendi who seems to either score or keep a clean sheet. Shove that clean sheet up your arse.
I'm a twit
Cup tie I'm 4 points behind, and my Jones/Calvert-Lewin have to overhaul that against his Lukaku. Think odds probably against me but a United clean sheet would give me a fighting chance.
Quite pleased with my 7 clean sheet bonuses out of a possible 8 and two on the bench, was on for the sweep until City chucked in the customary goal.
Should be through in the cup, though I have Calvert-Lewin and he has Rooney and Niasse, so watch DCL sit it out and his two bag five between them.
Pochettino brought Davies on for one minute last night. What is the point in that?
I've managed to leave myself with no decent strikers in the draft....
First 9
LWWLWWWW
Last 8
LLLLLLLL
To be honest I don't think there are many good strikers in the game in general. So if you didn't land Kane/Morata/Aguero etc then you're fucked really. Pretty certain this is the first week I've had two strikers score a goal.
Their classification of who is/isn't a forward is a bit strange. Hazard and Salah are midfielders and get clean sheet points, but Rooney, Calvert-Lewin and Rashford are all forwards.
I need Calvert-Lewin to score 9 points tonight to stay in the cup. I can't see it.
Committed the cardinal error of doing the week's transfer business when bored on a Sunday night.
Zaha out, Lanzini in.
I feel like I should now bring Zaha in.
The dream is alive!
Rooney with the missed penalty. I'm having a great week.
He's top of the BPS as well. It's the hope that kills you.
Its an assist.
I'm a twit
Isn't a missed pen the same amount of minus points as an assist though?
