Sold Trippier to bring in Estupinan

 

[tommers]

There they go, reinventing football again.

What an incredible week


for my bench

 

[Puddy_Tat]

i kept alvarez as captain.

bugger.

 

[belboid]

i kept alvarez as captain.

bugger.

I fucked up deciding who was gonna win the Arse Live match, but, thankfully, my deliberate decision to keep Foden as captain did okay. And it was it a deliberate decision, oh yes it was, guv.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

although i do seem to have won my H2H match - it came down to bonus points

 

[hermitical]

Four point captains, two weeks in a row

Hope you captained EH this week

 

[starfish]

Brought Garnacho off the bench & put Douglas Luiz on it. Looks like that is going to cost me this weeks H2H

 

[hermitical]

Hope you captained EH this week

Well, I did finally bring Haaland back into the squad this week.

As to your question...

At least he scored this week

 

[hermitical]

Of course, I was playing the person above me in the H2H, who seemed to think it was a good idea to captain Haaland.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

I haven't looked at H2H today - think it was going to come down to bonus points and substitutions.

 

[belboid]

I am looking at it most days. Mainly in shock. How the fuck did that happen?

 

[Puddy_Tat]

i put jota in this week, as he seemed to be in form and had 2 games and it wasn't clear salah was going to be back.

and of course as he played in the first one, there's no substitute for the second.

bugger.

now trying to decide whether to take a points hit so i can field 11 players next week.

meh.

 

[belboid]

bastard Jurgen bastarding Klopp.

Salah out 'injured'. Just to fuck with us.

 

[Charles Ufarley]

bastard Jurgen bastarding Klopp.

That's, "Mr. bastard Jurgen bastarding Klopp", to you!

 

[marty21]

Even though the Viking didn't do that well when I triple captained him in a 2 game week, he did just about well enough for my GIANT-killing in the H2H league - toppling the top of the table team.

 

[starfish]

Managed to win my H2H without triple captaining Haaland. Took a free hit & Salah as capt seemed to be enough.

 

[elbows]

Benched Watkins and got lucky via Adebayo injury in warmup allowing Watkins to come off my bench.

The bad move of benching Watkins in the first place was sponsored by double gameweek greed and the misplaced belief that Richarlison could do something big against Wolves.

 

[belboid]

Even though the Viking didn't do that well when I triple captained him in a 2 game week, he did just about well enough for my GIANT-killing in the H2H league - toppling the top of the table team.

grrr, a team decimated by injuries and appalling VAR decisions!

 

[Numbers]

93 points this week but I did play my bench boost which gave me an extra 23 points.

Still placed shit in all the leagues I'm in.

 

[hermitical]

I had 10 DGW players, (not including the benched TAA), TC played - 64 points.

Lost the top spot on work league for the first time since GW6

 

[Puddy_Tat]

now trying to decide whether to take a points hit so i can field 11 players next week.

never quite got round to it. the player i was thinking of bringing in would have only got a net 3 points so no great harm done.

if i'd been thinking about bowen and had forgot, i might be a bit more pissed off...

 

[belboid]

I am undone in the h2h by a team at the arse end of the table for the second week running. Grrrr

 

[hermitical]

Well, you have me this week and unless Gabriel explodes and Saka blanks then you'll be fine.

Another red arrow looming for me, sixth in a row.

Since GW21 I've dropped from 425k to (currently) 1.14m.

 

[tommers]

I made the wrong decision between Areola and Pickford and that has lost me the H2H.

(or The39thStep made the right decision and that has won him the H2H).

 

[tommers]

Tbh I find this stage of the season when everybody has the same players to be a bit pointless. Maybe we should just call it quits and work out the final standings now?

Moral victory and so forth and so on?

All the right players but not necessarily in the right order situation.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

hmph - looks like arsenal stopped trying at half time...
