Bringing Henderson and JWP in for a minus four this week has to be up there with the worst FF calls I've ever made. Season's done.
I did warn people that DDG coming in was very likely.

Three games off my bench boost in Shaw, Bruno and Maddison. I expected that with the United players in fairness, but my rival has Greenwood captain, so it feels painful.

Hopefully Bruno and Shaw make up for it when Greenwood is sitting on the bench on Thursday.

Castagne has been my worst fantasy signing I think. Accidentally transferring zaha instead of greenwood is making me tear up.

Castagne was absolutely ripping it up for 2 weeks, and looked a huge risk not having him.
But that Evans injury has utterly ruined him as a threat, and I look forward to rucking him off this week.

That Greenwood goal is absolutely critical for my league. Oh my word I celebrated that, and then was a bit scared when Sutton kept talking about handballs.

If Greenwood could get another attacking return I'll be delighted, but also wouldn't be too concerned to see him come off on 60, bank top bonus points, and then start v Liverpool too.

Greenwood coming off right on cue, 65 mins or so.
Hopefully that means he can start Liverpool as well.

He has the narrowest of leads in the 3 bonus at the moment, only literally 1 & 2 points ahead of others so will do amazingly to hold that.

Literally right on cue that put Greenwood down to 1 bonus, which he'll do well to keep.
Oh well, 7 pointer and promise of playing Thursday is decent.

Southampton concede 2mins in!
Switching that one off...least I don't have to endure 90mins of hoping Forster doesn't concede now!!

Has Zaha forgotten how to score points? The piece of shit better get some attacking returns. Been a disaster so far and I'm stuck with this goof until end of season.

Will take that :)

Only person in my top 10 with him so good differential. Also no clean sheets for either side.
He snuck that single bonus in the end, so a tidy 8 on top of the weekend.

And another game to go, as he'd clearly been afforded the play 60ish in all 3 games role :)

I have him captain, completely ruining my chances of winning my ML.... Knowing football he will haul next game after the dgw.

Forster has been a bust.

The feelings I would feel if he could save a penalty later would be absolutely unspeakable.

BABY!!!!
I saw the little missed pen icon on my phone...was hoping it was a Palace miss...it was.
Was hopeful....checked bbc text... FORSTER SAVE!!

Then a worrying line of "Var will check if his feet were off the line...."

But yes!!!
Critical that is. After a rival blagged a 12 pointer off bloody Godfrey the other day!

Man how lucky you all are with Forster haha.

It was years since I had a pen save in my starting team. Never had the combo of pen save and clean sheet though.

I'm glad the luck fairy has come my way. After the Godfrey 12 pointer and Mendy 11 for my nearest people!

Always a killer when someone you're against gets a pen save, as you just don't expect them!

Yes it is hard to predict them. I guess if you play your keeper vs Bruno/us there might be high numbers of pens though.

The worst feeling is those few seconds before a penalty, when you have the player captained, and your opponent has the keeper.
The potential for a massive points swing is horrible.

Thoughts are with those who against all advice, went with Zaha over Greenwood

To be honest, if I got in Greenwood, I would have had to take an extra 4 to bring him in and another 4 point hit to have a starting 11 next week. There was no way to know he was gonna play two games straight away after 90 in the EL. Zaha was playing two of the worst defences in the league...

A last min booking after a couple of no show performances is so Zaha isn't it.
Troll. And I can't even have the satisfaction of booting him out of my team :mad:

He'll get a 15 pointer one week when you've booted him. Just one of those sort of players .

Keeping Kane for a single was really bad with hindsight. Hope he smash it in the last 3 to make up for it.

The options to replace him with double gameweek players were Benteke (main option and easy way to get Bruno. ), DCL (second optiion although more expensive and would make getting Bruno harder), Adams(risky option, but cheap like Benteke), Ings (stupid option since he was an injury doubt, but it would have worked). Richarlison(well no haul yet, but will get more than Kane anyway). The only worse option than Kane was Watkins and I of course already own him haha.

So far my -12 hit has been pretty well. I'm on 100 (-12) = 88 I've caught up with the leader by 20 points I'm still 50 behind but if I can build another 10-15 points who knows?

I'm glad I've been playing aggressive. At least given my self a chance.

The greatest team in history
Week has turned to shit for me. 68 with maybe 5 players left (Bruno, AWB, Jota, Digne, Martinez)

Can't wait to bin Vardy on Thursday night.

Still think I'm gonna bring in Salah and DCL for Bruno and Vardy. Maguire can chill on the bench for now.

Nice who did you buy? I guess you got Mendy, Greenwood and Benteke? Maybe DCL as well and Bruno of course.

What do I do with my leftover TC? Use it on Salah vs WBA or Greenwood vs Fulham or Kane vs Wolves?
