Kept Watkins over Bamford. lol
Also triple captained Salah which I cannot remember doing

I thought McGinn was going to be one of my sneaky picks that does well and the only time he's contributed a thing is when I benched him in favour of a defender that conceded 3 goals.
Putting two rival teams attackers in and taking out Aubameyang on my current form was the best decision I’ve made in ages.
That late Newcastle equaliser ruined my weekend. Had two wolves defenders on for clean sheets and hefty bonuses. 13 point swing.

I've accidentally fallen into the trap of having decent options on the bench and so, obviously, those players now outperform the picked ones. Palace consistently binning their clean sheets in the dying moments (and for what!) is getting a bit tiresome.
Really need to do something with Trent and Robbo. Painful watching them blank each week.
My second straight Everton red card is finally going to force the wild card. The sunlit uplands of the leading 4,500,000 players awaits.
Bamford on the bench
You're not really paying for the clean sheets, you're paying for their attacking returns. They're basically midfielders.
There are cheaper models. Creswell has been a doozy for me.
Pretty chuffed with my dominant start.
Especially buzzing about swapping supposedly injured jrod for zaha this week. 49 already with kane, son (c), Pereira and lamptey to com
THE LADS.
got 3.1 to play with next week too
Still 6 points to be added too, you jammy fuck.
Brighton clean sheet aside, solid enough weekand I'm happy with the outlook.
8 then ffs. 3 bonus points incoming for the dog-muncher.
was gonna swap out perreira for hamez, but fulham are shit so i could see him doing #bits
might go crrrrrazy and pick a 96.9m side two weeks on the trot
Thoughts on Southampton without Ings, @Andy?
Will Adams step up and be the main man and do well?
Who will play up top with him?
Or will they go rubbish and to be avoided at all costs?
I'm a twit
I think it'll be Walcott and Adams upfront with Redmond back out wide.
I'm really not sure how we will do Adams has been great this season but its hard to know how much of those good performances have been because the opposition have been focusing on Ings.
I've got Adams and won't be getting rid, not sure I would get him in for a transfer though.
I was balls deep in the sesh/hangover I think because I replaced Ings with the injured Antonio.
It was between him, Adams, Watkins and Wilson. Not wasting 4 points replacing him, my bench can deal with it.
Made 3 transfers this week (2 freebies):
Castagne, Greenwood and Fernandes out for Lamptey, Sterling and Fornals.
ofc Fernandes is now having an amazing game
Forgot to change captain so hopefully Salah has a blinder tomorrow (or doesn't play at all as Fernandes is vice). Not sure if I'd have changed it anyway, maybe for Vardy. My useless 4.5m defender/'keeper strategy finally coming up trumps (to an extent) for once.
Couldn't afford Fernandes and didn't want to go -4 so went Jota out Rashford in and put the C on him. Saw me soar through the ranks.
Salah benched. FFS
Worked out fine anyway
82 points with Chilwell to come. First good week in a while takes me up to 68k.
Boxing day looks like the perfect set of fixtures for my team, should be another high scoring week.
Yeah, I've had a good week which has piqued my interest again, but looking forward what the hell is going on with gameweeks 18 and 19? I would sort of understand it if it was a midweek catch-up for teams with games in hand, but it doesn't really seem to be that, and after half the teams miss out in week 18 loads have doubles in 19. Then I guess the cup will be along to blow holes in that anyway.
Pep selection bingo blowing up Mahrez has put a bit of a dampener on things for me of late.
I've had a real nightmare so far this season. I've got my captain pick wrong every week. I picked Kane this week, while everyone else in my league had Bruno.
I had Fernandes and went from smug to seething to satisfied over the course of the weekend (having taken it off Salah).
Bruno really needs to find his true level and/or die in a fire soon.
Steady first third of the season has seen me maximise my team value enough to finally utilise it from next week onwards. 18 looks too lacking in potential to waste a free hit on and I'm set up for 19 superbly so bravely saving my FH is going to be my Mona Lisa.
This was always going to be a disastrous week to start the Cup (what with 2 day turnaround selection bingo and all) but now with the City game being off it's going to extra clusterfuck levels. They're going to have to have a triple gameweek at somepoint.
Absolutely laughable.
I forgot to change my team.
I have Lamptey, Sterling, Keane and DCL out.
Could have done with a Palace clean sheet
Got tired of Chilwell and there's the assist
As a Barnes/Chilwell owner with no Man City players at all, I'm feeling rather smug about life at this stage.
This week's madness along with the cup starting is the sort of injection of intrigue I play this game for
I think I've built up my value enough to be able to put out an unbeatable side. I just need 3 weeks and no major injuries for the remainder of the season.
I think they should blend two weeks together if there isn’t at least a 24 hour gap between one gameweek ending and another beginning. Only nerds enjoy that shit b
Edit: that b was an auto correct but I’m leaving it to sound hip hop.
Since when the fuck was Fabianksi injured? That's the first fucking clean sheet those twats have kept in ages as well. No GK points hit incoming.
The gyppo has fucking broken the points system on this shit and it's going to be like that season my stance against Sterling and Aguero, as commendable as it was, cost me glory. But principles have to be maintained.
My cup opponent is ranked 53,000 and has Bruno Fernandes captain. Still somehow only 12 points behind the bugger with more to come than he has, so if I manage to overhaul him he's getting the full Bjorn Lillelien.
Why in the flying fuck is Tyrick Mitchell my captain?
