The greatest team in history
49 with 4 to play. Not bad.

What's the standout fixture for next week?

Thinking I need a City attacker versus Leeds but it means Pep roulette. I guess whoever doesn't start midweek is a decent shout for the weekend.

Got my eye on Mahrez and Jesus.

Jota can wait another week maybe.

Also like the look of Arsenal's next few games but their team is a nightmare of rotation as well.

Don't assume anything of that basis fraud.

I'll keep Gundo as he is great value even if he gets rotated.

Thanks to the two lads who helped me just switch captain to Kane late on. My experience is late changes aren't good usually, but with Kane 13 and Bruno 5, a superb change.

Roll on Richarlison and Coufal doing something tomorrow now. Quite an average set of scores this week. Bar the top of the world guy I spotted with 42 points from captaining Perreira :lol:

Behind the right goal post as "Whiteside shoots!"
Kane (c) saving my week.

While most in the top 6 in my league have him, only me and 2 others captained.

Need Bruno and/or Rashford to have a good game later. Keep me within 50 then it's who makes the best WC decisions.
62 all out. That first goal helped.

Just noted @Sandikan post about Kane score and realised BPS not on yet so another 6 making 68.

Will take that.

Score twins on 62 so far.
Though I'll be gutted if I end on 62,as have Coufal and Richarlison to come in.

Ahh I was going to edit to say 63, but I see Bruno slipped out of the 1 bonus, but Watkins (who I had forgotten about) got 1...so it's as I was...62 :)
(Edited my earlier post for Bruno to show 5 now)

In return, can you give me some of your points?

Fallen further behind the leader this GW. Waving the white flag on the season. I'm done out here.

How many points behind? What chips you got left?

I turned a 70 point lead in the final three weeks to win my ML once. Anything is possible mate.

I really dropped the ball from weeks 25-30, dropped out of the top 100k, then the top million.

I'd love to get to top 500k this year, then maybe take a 0 off it next season.

Don't give up. I've lost a 50 point lead with two weeks left before!!
And that bench boost week with 143 stormed me into the top two of my league from 5-6th. There can always be an unforeseen gamechanger week.

Just the bench boost left, now 119 points behind. I don't know how to effectively counter his tactics of just copying my team. Our teams are about 85% the same, have been for months, the only differences being the transfers I've made on any given week.

You've got to look for differentials. And risk captaining them.

Probably going with something similar - TAA, I want Dias in there somewhere and maybe KDB somehow too.
Do we know what points or rank he has?
If he's top 10k worth a listen. 5millionth may be not.

No city doesn't look great.

Need Lingard and Antonio to score heavily today. Else not captaining Kane will just cost me to lose my lead further. I blew 90-100 pts lead in 7-8 weeks

I'll keep trying that. It hasn't come off for me so far. I have captained Antonio this GW who I just transfered in. He captained Kane who earned him 26 points.

That's tough. Best bet is to invest in Liverpool if you can. He'll probably swap Lingard to Jota. Maybe its worth getting Salah or Mane? Drop Cancelo for TAA if you can. Maybe swap Jesus to Ihenacho or Vardy? You need to take risks and captain these players.

Imagine a Vardy brace captained, which can easily happen. Will gain 26 points from one player.

Do people believe TAA is an asset worth getting again? Liverpool have good fixtures and coming into form a bit but he is still very expensive...

Infuriating from Richarlison. Through on goal and bungles it, then bungles the rebound.

Gotta ship him out soon methinks.

Thinking up of my next genius thread
Need to save 0.4 on my WC draft :
Martinez - Areola (I want to change these too, maybe Thinking Mendy/Forster.)
Rudiger - Coady - Shaw - Phillips (pool) - Dias
Salah - Bruno - Son - Jota - Raphina
DCL - Ikeanacho - Kane

Was thinking about going DCL - > ? and Son -> KDB since second in league has him and protecting rank a bit.

What's the reasoning for the rush to WC in gw31?

Heavily ownership teams like Leeds and Villa have shocking upcoming fixtures. Time to move on from City double defence + Gundogan. Not a bad time to do some spring cleaning.

I'm saving mine for later though.
