I did hear he was injured, but last time Mourinho said Costa was injured, he scored a hattrick. I should have checked more thoroughly yesterday. I would have known he's out for 3 weeks.

With 2 defenders scoring it looks like the leaderboard will be full of everton blocks + aguero

121 top score :shock:

Only 4 players with a midweek game... But it's points in the bag that count.
It's got 47 on my best effort (I've got 8 to play but doubt I can catch him.

80 points and 785th place.

Howard
Baines
Distin
Jagielka
Coleman
Lampard
Sterling
Chadli
Costa
Welbeck
Aguero

I need Costa to miraculously heal his hamstring before Tuesday and score a hattrick against Maribor. I need Welbeck to score a hattrick against Anderlecht on Wednesday. I need Sterling to score a hattrick against QPR tomorrow. I need Lampard to score 2 goals against CSKA Moscow on Tuesday. I need Chadli to also score at least 2 goals against Asteras on Thursday.

Am I asking too much?

Hoping to rein them in, I've potentially got 12 point scoring games left for my team.

I had Costa in 3 (never sure on Jose's pre match yabayaba) but Distin hasn't played for 4 weeks because of his injury.

Must admit, I pencilled Distin in (assuming he'd replace Stones).
In the end I removed him (and didn't dare pick Alcaraz). But that was down to luck rather than knowledge :oops:

Its decent but another everton clean sheet and someone will catch him. 133 and 140 have won champions league weeks so far, this will be won with 150ish I reckon.

Liverpool blocks could come from no where if they keep a clean sheet tomorrow and produce a miracle midweek ( I have a 9 player pool block with Aguero and welbeck 38pts) so am hoping for that miracle :lol:
