Premiership Fantasy Football League 07/08

I had a bit of a midfield dilemma myself today but nothing quite as serious. Fabregas was suspended and Arteta was doubtful so, temporarily, I've switched those two out for Lampard and Bentley. Turns out Arteta is playing after all, but oh well.

Edit: So my team for this week, for reference purposes:

GK - Reina
DF - Lescott
DF - Richards
DF - Ferdinand
MF - Bentley
MF - Lampard
MF - Elano
MF - Petrov
MF - Dempsey
FW - Adebayor
FW - Keane

Subs: Sorenson (GK), Ridgewell (DF), Shorey (DF), Forssel (FW)

Out: Adebayor, Bouma. They both served me very well - particularly the latter at his low cost.
In: The other A-as;odhig-or guy, Distin. Hopefully they'll keep up their form.

The important thing is that I now have five players from five different teams in my back 3/4/5 so I can better pick my teams depending on who is facing who. Well, four players, really. Like I'm ever actually going to use Varga. :p

My injury woes should ease up in December, though. Hleb, Cech and Fabregas all returning is great, Varga is already back but again, well, you know. xD He's cheap as chips, mate!

EDIT: I now have seven of the 'Dream Team' players, too. Ha.

Brought in Petrov at the Expense of Reo-Coker, don't play Reo-Coker anyway and we're up against Wigan so I'm backing Petrov to score some good points. Dropped Laursen 'cause Aston Villa playing Arsenal, and dropped Dempsey and brought in Petrov 'cause of previously mentioned Wigan and 'cause Fulham playing Man Utd.

Keane and Bejani still my strikers, Reina still in goal and Dunne, Lescott, Distin, Carragher, Gerrard, N'Zogbia and Elano make up the rest of my team.

So you brought in Petrov for Reo-Coker, and Petrov for Dempsey? :p

:skull::skull::skull::skull:, I forgot to change my team, and Elano isn't even playing. He''s my captain! :(

Petrov/Reo-Coker transfer, Petrov/Dempsey line-up change.

I just made a :skull::skull::skull::skull: load of changes and lost 20 points. I find it funny that I was only 3 points behind Dan before doing so. :laugh:

I've made changes totalling a bunch of points about 6 times, and I was 14th after the first month so I'm still doing better than you :kiss:

Boy, glad I kept Stevie G as my skipper for this week.



Take care all.

smurfing :skull::skull::skull::skull:e officiating robbing my team of 3 points but more importantly of one of my highest scoring players.

As such, Tevez is in for Robbie Keane and David Bentley comes in for the injured Elano.

I'm just gonna keep Elano. I have all my points used up, so if I sell a good player then I'm not gonna be able to get them back in easily as they cost more to buy than they do to sell (which is :(). I still have Fabregas, Hleb, Ronaldo and Wallace anyway. My first choice team, when fit, are going to get me a fair load of points though. :D Very happy with it at the mo, even if they didn't get me too much this time around.

I've had extra points to work with since the start, I've compiled a high scoring (in the context of our league) team for as cheap as possible. Even bringing in Tevez and Bentley leaves me with 2 points leftover.

Gah, I never seem to be fully happy with squad. Perhaps I should stop tinkering with it so much, but I'm determined to try and regain first place. Not had a bad week this week, but it doesn't make up for quite a few disappointing weeks I've had. Wish I'd made Bentley captain. Lampard was the worst scoring member of my team, yet I made him captain. The bastard.

Edit: Curses! Now that I see that me and The Captain have the same gameweek points thus far (66), I really DO wish I'd had Bentley as my captain as I would've narrowly leapfrogged him. Also seems that Skogs and Burtsplurt got 66 points as well. Popular score.

Should have thrown Seb Larsson into my starting line-up. That's thirteen points I've lost by not having faith. :(
