The Secret Tournament III

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Seems Cavani may have done bad and Jiminez broken, was nice having strikers for a week Was looking forward to my Schmeichel penalty save there

But who will take the crown?! Ah not worried about my strikers, have full faith in Danny Welbeck to lead the line

I'm impressed that TallPaul has managed to shoehorn 4 City players in his team. Even more impressed that they managed to score 0 points between them. Makes me feel less bad about my shower.

Hey guys, just popping on for what seems like the first time in ages to wish you all a great Xmas

My fantasy efforts have been reduced to approx 5 minutes a week when I log on to FPL to select my transfers for the main game and Draft. Sometimes I even manage to do this before the Friday deadlines Strangely, that strategy seems to be proving more effective at the moment than the old 5 days a week (at least) I used to spend thinking about it

Have had so much other stuff going on in the last few months, FF has fallen way down my list of priorities this year (and doing shite in the main game obviously hasn’t helped matters either )......

But, having said that, I’m somehow maintaining a lead here in the ST (Boy you lot must be seriously rubbish if I’m winning ) and have moved into the top 1 million (how exciting ) in the main game for the first time this season too. What a strange season in an even stranger year.

May pop back on around the 28th to try and figure out what I’m going to do with the wildcard thingy...

In the meantime, hope you all manage to have a lovely Christmas!

Cheers Archy! Wishing you more of the same, and to everyone else we know.

I hope to reach the top 1 million by GW38..

Still trying to come to terms with the fact that my first two picks were Sterling and Havertz. Talk about putting yourself at a disadvantage

Well, thanks for participating.

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Wow it's really squeezing up in this one, 70 odd points between 1st and 9th and then there's Tall Paul

[Pirlo's Beard]

Tall Paul's Wood is very much Tall Paul's deadwood.

Or me in my ML.

This is an exciting season, with various close swings on a gameweekly basis in the top 7 and #8 and 9 in a very short distance creeping up. Is TP giving the top 9 false hope?

[Pirlo's Beard]

Is TP giving the top 9 false hope?

Probably not.

[dino1980]

Happy to take the positive variance. It’s incredibly close at the top and they’ll be further big swings with the doubles and blanks to come.

Many swingers in this league, fun times. I just brought in McGoldrick to move me back to top spot.

What could possibly go wrong?

Him doing it against my team. That's what.

[Pirlo's Beard]

Finding it hard to make any headway at the moment after a couple of disappointing DGWs. Also I've just checked my team for GW29 and it's not pretty - looks like I could be fielding the classic 0-3-1 formation.

I'll play it a bit more safe with a 2-1-0 formation.

Horribly negative. This is why no one wants to watch your team.

Ah, I thought it had to do with jealousy.

[Aldershot Rejects]

I'm on 2-1-2 although two of those are flagged inc Wilson who won't play.

Speaking of Wilsons, I think Jonathan might need to add a new chapter to Inverting the Pyramid when he sees some of the formations we'll be fielding this weekend.

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Did ya ever see such a glorious strikeforce in all your life?

I seem to have ended up with triple Southampton defence. Hmm. Just choosing my spot behind the sofa for Sunday lunchtime

I shouldn't mock. I had four Chelsea players getting me a grand total of 4 points and Alexander-Arnold's 12-pointer marooned at second sub.

I've only got 9 starters it seems and 4 of them are Saints with a total of 5 points.

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Last week got 1 point from 4 Chelsea players who all played. This week kept James and Christensen who are benched and sold Zouma, delightful.

[Aldershot Rejects]

I has Havertz second in the initial draft. Only about 30 GWs too earlier

[RuudTheDudeVanTheMan]

Please don't mention Havertz I sold him in my other draft this week for Trossard? Also have Werner who's not playing and Firmino who had a goal ruled out subbing in for Alonso. And then there's my fpl bench, what a super week.
