Tbf you could easily just average out your weekly score at the end and add three weeks worth onto it, that said it's significantly easier to get higher points later on due to trends in player performance becoming more obvious later in the season so might be more fair to average it out then add 3x80% of your weekly score to get a fair final total.

That was a god awful week. Least points I've had in a long time, the player who did best was on the bloody bench (crouch 12pts, and zabaleta's red card bringing sagna on fucked my chances of crouch getting subbed in on the game).

Still bottom, obviously, but 106 points in two weeks isn't a bad start.

All my big players did shite.

Luckily I've had faith in Di Maria since he signed, and I picked up Ulloa on the cheap because seemed to be nodding at least one a week in.

Pretty much saved my week with those two alone.

It appears everyone else did shit too and I'm still moving up the table. Brought in di maria for the ageing and increasingly useless gerrard (along with using some spare cash). Bring on next week

Forgot to sort out my team before I went away on Friday. Not too much damage, Hazard was stuck on the bench though, so I missed out on 7 extra points. :ugh: Schurrle, Sterling and Nugent made up for it.

Switched out Dzeko and Gerrard. Both scored. Bah. Also 1-1s ruining all my clean sheet points. This is sucking hard.

9 of my starting 11 were in the dream team, all near top scorers for their positions so far and i went down in almost every league, staying in the same position in one.


fuck sake :lol:

The overall dream team doesn't mean that much considering it doesn't account for how many weeks certain players have been injured, or even in the premier league (incoming transfers during august or jan), also there's no money or team limits on the dream team.

I keep making too many transfers.

I've taken 12 points off myself this week.
