Had a shocker last weekend, so much so I hadn't bothered checking until just now. Somehow my 3 CL sides all won 6-4, 9-8 and even my 8-8 draw snuck through. Happy days :D

I'm already 2 points up in the next round after my opponent played Vlaar on Tuesday :-)

I knew Lovren was worth keeping! He got me a 2pt win with my last remaining team. Assuming this weekend counts, it should be interesting with the cut down fixture list.

Just guessing, but i don't think this weekend will will count, as there appears to be room for one blank.

How are we all doing in this?

My remaining team should now be in the last 128

Through 16-13 (2 Dier assists!)
Initially thought Tuesday's and Wednesday's games would be included but happily not (Opponent has 2 Chelsea defenders)
Only in Sunday League comp though

3 out of 3 somehow through in cl.
Poor iso Britinus managed to run into one of mine that racked up 31 points :shock:
Another went into Sunday all square, they had all my players covered with De Gea, Hazard and Giroud in hand.

1 point down and my opponent has no changes left.

He has Sanchez and Cazorla

I have Sanchez.

Who do I bring in?

Thinking I need to hit these one of two ways:

Either bring in an Arsenal defender and hope for a clean sheet with Cazorla not scoring.

Bing in N'Doye and maybe Ramsey and hope for a few goals.

Thoughts?

Yep it's a tricky one and I have similar problems with mine.
There is of course no right answer except with hindsight.
On this seasons points per game Giroud comes out top followed by bellerin :shock: and then N,doye.
Ozil theN Ramsey are top midfielders although both are behind ospina and kosc, this does however fail to factor in home v away and current form.
Probally just muddied the waters further right?

Could be leading by two points, but didn't risk Kolarov vs Spurs. I had Kane and Chaldi like my opponent and a goal would have made the difference larger.

I'd be very hesitant about bringing in a defender. It would be typical to go 4-0 up and concede a meaningless goal late on. Depending on the team sheet, I'd be tempted by either Walcott or Ramsey.

Decided to go for N'Doye and Giroud.

All I need is an assist from either to qualify.

Will leave me 7 changes.

Last team has fallen. Should stick with my first thought on Ramsey and not Giroud.
