The way the fixtures were set up this week a fair few Chelsea players around I'd imagine and a fair few MU blocks with their cup game v Cambridge scraping in to the week - so De Gea star man and the MU defence all getting their marks will mean a fair few are off to a flyer.

Less likely if, like me, you failed to notice that Smalling had morphed into Evans.

I ended up with Smalling too :) I did notice just prior to k.o but the price diff meant I could not do a straight swap so left in the hope he'd make a cameo and play Friday.

Made exactly the same mistake :oops: I don't know how I managed to miss that, I saw the bloody line-ups at 2.15! Doesn't matter though, I don't have Oscar or Costa so I won't win. I went heavy on Man Utd's players when I saw their fixtures. I have a Man Utd block with Mata, Di Maria, Rooney and Falcao. The snowball chance I have is if Van Gaal plays the 1st string on Friday and they win 10-0.

I'll need more than 10-0 with Shaw getting half of them goals. :?

With Chelsea and Liverpool clean sheets busted it's looking like the Man Utd block will
be the main threat.

Unlike some of you Sun long-timers, I've no idea who Zarch is, but he is certainly looking like a potential winner this week. Good luck!

However I could nose him out if Smalling out-scores Evans by 18 pts. So with Evans sidelined, a clean sheet, goal and star man ....... OK, enough of this nonsense, I'll get me coat! :wink: :lol: :wink:

Shame on you David......but I must say you've taken to this weekly game like a duck to water....a couple of wins I think and some other good efforts so well played.

Can easily see Mick ducking for the line too early, with half an eye on Natalie alongside, only to have a BBM team come rattling in from out of nowhere :twisted:

Spurs clean sheet should give one of my teams a big push up the league.

However, need Utd players to come good.

Perhaps he used that emergency transfer to bring the Liverpool striker into his team after he finally gave up on Balotelli. :lol:

No actually.

I stuck in Borini for Ballotelli at the previous window.

I put in Walker for Kabol for my emergency who originally replaced that useless piece of dogshite Lovren.
