Shame just the 1 goal, and seemingly no bonus.

Noticed Martial got no bonus either, despite sitting on 1 for ages and being on 2 when I'd checked late that evening!
Ah darn it, he was on 1bps when I last checked.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I'm leading a money league as I've mentioned previously - by 48 points. Winner gets 600 odd.

I was thinking I've taken 3/4 risks that have helped me get that lead in the last few weeks. Realistically I should not take any more no?

My team is ok, I was thinking maybe Vardy to Ings and Bringing in D.Silva for the last GW and captaining him.

Who to Captain?

Fernandes or Salah?

Obviously Fernandes has better fixture but I'm trying to catch 45 points on a guy who owns fernandes but not Salah... But maybe Salah will make the gap worst?

Ok the free hit has worn off so im back to this mob

Martinez, 3.9m chump
TAA, Doc, Ward, Aurier, Lascelles
Mane, Martial, Bruno, De Bruyne, Saka
Vardy, Greenwood, DCL


Looking a little dodge in defence with Lascelles out for the last two games and Aurier very possibly.

Probably have a 15 point lead v someone who will play a free hit week38.

Best steps?

Have 0.3m so would have to be Vardy and Jimi does have a good fixture. Would have had to ship Vardy v us too.

Just have to hope Aurier does play to have more flex in the squad if someone doesn't play

I got Foden on the bench and he's playing Watford but the cnut has trolled me so many times. He is a differential though and I'm trying to make up 45 points (playing TC final week).

Which one of these would you drop?

KDB
Salah (differential) (current Captain)
Pulisic (differential)
Fernandes

Jiminez
Vardy (differential)
Greenwood

For me Vardy, he has 2 yukky games but if there's going to be a goal you know he could punish you.

I'm 70/30 to swapping him for the free scoring without pressure Danny Ings. I just feel like one of these 2 games the shackles will be off for certain teams and we might see some ridiculous scores for those who have nothing to play for. Danny Ings could be that magical guy.

Vardy out Ings in which leaves me with enough money to bring in D.Silva for GW38.

Wish me luck. 47 point lead and a lot of money riding on it! If I can avoid the teams below me getting any more than 25 points on me I feel I have a good chance.

If you're trying to catch up a lead then you have to gamble and Salah is about as low a risk gamble as you can get tbf.

Pope

TAA / Egan / Maguire

Martial (c) / Bruno / Sterling / Mahrez

Wood (vc) / Ings / Vardy

Subs : McCarthy / Taylor (inj) / Foden / Digne

Still not sure whether to play Digne over one of Egan or Maguire.

Issue is this exact thing happened last year where I was taking all sorts of risks to catch number one and in the end got overtaken and finished third... Might happen again :lol:

So my current team is :

Henderson, Ryan

Keane, Kelly, Saiss, Robertson, TAA

Fernandes, Martial, Foden, KDB, Richarlison

Ings, Jimenez, Greenwood



3.6m in the bank. Was thinking of replacing Richarlison and Keane but not sure who with.

Any advice?

Well yeah there is that. I'm bringing him in for the final game against Newcastle who seemingly only have one fit first team centre back. Don't even mind taking a hit either as I'll definitely captain him. Trouble is if he pops of against Chelsea everyone will do the same.

So I replaced Keane with Bardsley. Salah or Sterling in for Richarlison?

I'd bring in another City mid for Richarlison. Looks like you might be just short of the cash for Sterling so Mahrez or David Silva maybe.

My team going into this week.

Pope
TAA, Saiss, Egan
Salah (c), Fernandes (vc), KDB, Foden, Pulisic
Vardy, Jiminez

Subs: Button, Greenwood, Aurier, Mings

If you have any of these players, take them out as I have the anti-midas touch since the restart.

Last minute panic. Martial TC or not? Can I trust Sterling or De Bruyne to play the last round?
Ok I save it. Picking the City guy that gets a rest vs Watford. If they play full 11 for that one I am doomed.

With that Norwich red card I hope that gives me a solid double clean sheet for Pope and transferred in Tarkowski.

Chris Wood! The punt has worked so far. Greenwood benched will see if it turns out to be the right call.

If Arsenal, Wolves and Burnley can all keep a clean sheet it'll be happy days this GW

Aubameyang is gonna go absolutely mental against Villa - can't believe more people weren't bringing him in and Capping him.

Also think West Ham might keep Bruno quiet and nick something from the Utd game...
