JDY 1,290 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Up to 2nd but still miles from the top.Think I was a bit high when choosing my captain. That or Jype's mind games about taking risks got in my head too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayC 171 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Benteke maybe? Made my changes yesterday for next week. Bit of a risk, but he was one player I decided to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Just made the Giroud -> Benteke transfer. Time will tell whether it was a good move but looking at the fixture list I am willing to take the risk. Arsenal have very tough fixtures coming up whereas Aston Villa will be facing the likes of Cardiff, Sunderland and West Brom for the next month or so.The man in top form Aaron Ramsey will be dropped to the bench for Robbie Brady who's playing against Sunderland at home. Now the lineup is almost done, only thing remaining is the captain but I'm having a hard time selecting one. I've thought about Hazard because Newcastle's defense has been atrocious lately but it'd be a risk because Eden might not even start after Schürrle, Willian and Mata all had good games this week and Hazard wasn't at his best against City. Then there's Benteke but he's up against a defensively good West Ham side and he's only regaining his match fitness so he wouldn't be an ideal captain either. The likes of Sturridge, Özil and Lukaku will all be facing a top6 team so they're ruled out, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captaincy isn't a problem for me - Robin should do the damage this week. I really wish I could pick Aguero though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara 15,149 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 what you guys think are Suarez' chances of scoring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayC 171 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 what you guys think are Suarez' chances of scoring? Quite low in my opinion. It's Suarez though - so I wouldn't actually outright bet against him. His form would actually offer a big headache if I had him. Benteke it is, then. I'll blame you if things go wrong. I'd be happy to see it go wrong if it wasn't my striker too! ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go disguised as the girl from The Grudge Lol. Pretty harsh! I'll be ready for you (in my dreams) ;p Yaya for captn???? Don't think so. Yaya never seems like a good captain option to me. That's just me though. I prefer the more likely goal scorers/assist makers. A midfielder is nice if you get it right though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 A horrible round. 21 points and I only have Lukaku and Williams left. Overall position down from 344 to 6647 and my rank for this gameweek is 2,757,443 so basically everyone who even bothers with this game got a better score than me. Was maybe the best idea ever to bench Ramsey (10pts) for Brady who scored fuck all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 What a team selection for me this week. Ramsey, Dawson and Coleman on the bench scored more points than my starting lineup combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
