Hero to zero. Not one goal compared to midweek. Feast or a famine.
No doubt changes a plenty next weekend again.
Good luck everyone.
Toney the standout choice pick this weekend!

@SilentWitness is the only one who didn't have Son, so has gone down from 6th to 9th. There were just the three picked scorers this weekend - and BFA had all of them.

@Hernandez - BFA still top.

Looking terrible in 9th to 5th in two match days!
Yeah. Biggest points gainers in last two matchdays:

9: Annihilate Now!
8: SilentWitness
6: awop, Hernandez - BFA
5: Skills
4: altodevil, Canuckred64, padr81
3: paulscholes18
2: Donk87
1: sallycinnamin

It's hard to gain points on first with his picks coupled with the absences or poor form of the other challengers (Aston Villa in general, Calvert-Lewin injured) but you've both managed it in recent weeks.

Diaz is out until the end of the year in a blow for @sallycinnamin. Looked like a good pick with everyone else going for Nunez and their respective starts to the season.

We basically need Martinelli to become Haaland for a few weeks to get back into this :lol: Can't believe i trusted Coutinho to do anything....

Low scoring week - probably not that surprising with Arsenal and City not playing. @sallycinnamin has gone from third to tenth in four weeks.

It is looking very tight at the top. Good with only two rounds left to play after tomorrow. Shame the Week 7 fixtures and a couple of others got scrapped. Fairest thing for the Evens side at the start of next year I guess is either to not count the Week 7 (and couple of other) fixtures or just count the Week 7 but not the couple of others that got postponed as it means a few teams will have more games than the others which unfortunately was the case here.

Thank you all for taking part so far. Any feedback would be appreciated.

This is very tight, it's Havertz-Wilson-Toney vs Mitrovic-Sterling-Rodrigo. Not feeling very confident :nervous:
What will be the deciding factor if there is multiple users on the same amount of goals ?

Will probably just be a tie and all will get a tagline/trophy. Hopefully if the next edition has more entrants there'll be less chance of one. Maybe for future games we could have it that if there's a tie, it could be decided by the fewest minutes to get those goals? Dunno. What do you all think?

Personally I just like the tie route. Harsh for someone who has got the joint most goals to lose out just because their players played more minutes.

Yes a tie is fair enough

Wilson is making all the difference here as I'm the only one that has him. Good week for him = good week for me.

If anyone had Trossard or Almiron in their line-up they'd be laughing.

Almiron's only eligible for the Evens version so I'm predicting a lot of picks for him in the new year.
There's me not knowing what Almiron's shirt number is.

Can probably have no exclusions for evens either... in fact this would would have been slightly more interesting had people been able to pick Ronaldo or Salah (but probably a good job no one could pick Haaland)

I think Harry Kane's the only one excluded and even he had a slow start last year (though he's got 10 in 13 this season)

Been knocked off my perch that I’ve held since gameweek 1.
Jesus and Foden drying up the last few weeks plus Sterling and Sancho being... Sterling and Sancho has been costly recently. Really unlucky. You need Jesus to get his scoring boots back on but Arsenal's next two games are Chelsea and Wolves away which will probably be boring.

Into an early one goal lead...
Going to be tight but you couldn't have asked for a better start to the weekend. Newcastle v Chelsea is going to be huge for deciding where the "title" goes. There are still a few players left who play tomorrow but Coutinho's disappeared and Sancho is ill so comes down to Bailey, Mitrovic and Watkins.

I think Mitrovic is still injured... We both have Martinelli so if Wilson/Havertz score it's over. :nervous:
