For my Tourny team, last week as well, opted for Berbs over Tevez, though hopefully this could swing it.

Had him warming the pine in all 5 of my teams.

It had to be worth points hits to go RVP + another doubler didn't it?

I could not decide on a doubler striker so went 451 in top team. Know I'll regret it

Good luck all. Thanks for the quick heads up crookface.

My decision to ship out Berbatov and keep Rooney, in both my teams before last week is now looking like a Genius move. Man Utd have a difficult run in and Berbatov seems to score his goals at home against the lesser teams.

Potentially 8 players playing in the Double Game week for one team and 7 in the other.

How many have others got potentially playing?

Yes, Already had VP in the team, though thought he might do better (He might still do) than Tevez... Shall see how it all pans out!!..

Just realised another week after this.. So another reason as with Arsenal/Spurs/Brum not playing that week, 25 hit could be a 50 point taking them back out. Plus Mau U might have a double if Everton beat Chelsea in cup.


This is my Banker £11 League.

1 Miss Louisa Moss Mosschops II 669
2 Mr kevin newman CESC 546
3 Mr mel panayiotou Petes Mighty Leeds 539
4 Mr Kris Lewis Red Star Gonzo 472
5 Mr Daniel Nicol ROMA C 432

7 or 8 in my best teams. 9 in my team in 700 place.

Will be left with an Arsenal shaped hole next week but have kept Everton/Man Utd coverage in hope of further doubles.

I used the extra subs last week with half an eye on the double fixtures so was pretty well covered already. Have 10 in most teams taking 50 point hits on average.

Will be a different story point hits wise in a couple of weeks though

Seem to be down slightly with 7/8 players on others coverage of the Double game week.

However I have taken no hits point wise to get this coverage and at present will be left with 10 potential players playing for the weekend of the CC cup final. I actually have no Spurs coverage for example.

It is all about having a balance between having a decent coverage of the double game weeks and the Penalty point hits.

A 25 pts hit is OK if the player being brought in is season long but if you are planning to revert back to the original player being brought out, it can be a potential 50pt hit for an additional game, which for many of the average players, (Brum /WBA for example) you have no guarantee of actually getting that 50pts back and you do not want to be stuck with a player averaging 40pts per game compared to the 50 pts per game player you may have initially taken out.

Yes, that why I will never take Nani out. ..
He will prob get more than my Captain Fab in one team, which I took and 25pt hit and Dumped VDV...

Also Evra will prob get more than many Doublers..... Its strange how our eyes light up for the Double game weeks.... All good stuff though..

Yep Nani survived in every one of my teams

Nani is also still in both of my teams.

Anyone think Wenger might rotate against a perceived lesser team like Wolves, with one eye on Barcelona?

For the above reason I have not captained RVP

I think he might.... !!

Oi you lot you're not helping my already frayed nerves! Brunt for a hatrick? (crossing fingers on fitness test)

Sorry Wilbert, will let you know ASAP, just on the Arse Forum.

Yes VP starts so does Clichy and Sagna which i like.

Ode and Thomas Start more good news.

Myhill, Jara, Scharner, Olsson, Shorey, Brunt, Dorrans, Mulumbu, Thomas, Odemwingie, Fortune

I feel better now ta

No Ethington in one of my Tourney Teams.. ;-/

He seems to be becoming a bit of a liability - do we think some of his old problems are back to haunt him?

I know how he feels, though hopefully i wont need him..... Should play in Arsenal game.... Apart from that all the Doublers Play..... and Nani has 84+ Points...

Poor score from Sagna... Clean sheets really aren't everything in this game are they? He got outscored by players like Vidic, Kelly, and Evra who conceded,

Got 4 of my 5 teams in decent positions now so might have to start actually trying to figure out this scoring system
