Defoe, Rooney and Vermaelen did quite well, but my midfield was a disaster. Bily, KPB, Fabs and Duff got 12 points between them.<br /><br /><br />Kirkland<br />Vermaelen Bassong Hreidarrson<br />Bilyaletdinov Palacios Huddlestone Lennon<br />Drogba Defoe Rooney<br /><br />This is my current team, but I am very concerned with having this team. I have too many Tottenham midfielders, Hreidarrson have to face Chelsea away, and Wigan are terrible away and they have to visit Anfield. I was thinking of Lampard, but am concerned if he is too expensive, and I'll probably have to drop Rooney or Lennon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-55268868963637659042009-12-07T13:36:41.831+00:002009-12-07T13:36:41.831+00:00@AM - Don't worry about the short post.

Simply put, it takes some guts to share your ideas with your fellow competitors, and AM has plenty of that.<br /><br />So, if you are unhappy, why not create another site for Fantasy Football and lets see who gives the better advices. <br /><br />If not, please shut the door when you are leaving.

My entire midfield screwed me over and my Strikers didn't help either. my biggest point getter was Almunia of all people *Sigh*<br /><br />Hoping the double week gets my team out of a 2 week slump now (62 points last week as well :( ) If i could get any consistency, i could get up towards the top 2000.

Anyway, I guess I'll just have to concentrate on the league!<br /><br />As an Everton supporter yes, the last 20 minutes yesterday were indeed fantastic, though I thought we'd thrown it all away when Hibbo clattered Paliacos - and yes, it was a penalty. Felt more like we'd won than salvaged a draw in the end. Hopefully after the Chelsea game we can start to put together a few convincing performances and give ourselves a fighting chance of a decent league place when the boys all return from injury.<br /><br />Barndoors? Well after this week I wouldn't be taking any advice of mine, but for the record I've gone Chelsea big time with a couple of fillers to make up the numbers. Might all change by Friday though.<br /><br />Paphos ToffeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-65272369087145868922009-12-07T08:35:15.083+00:002009-12-07T08:35:15.083+00:00AM....a barking dog does not bother an elephant on...AM....a barking dog does not bother an elephant on the move.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-26946506722631565522009-12-07T06:49:38.602+00:002009-12-07T06:49:38.602+00:00I was surprised to see Tevez taking corners and se...I was surprised to see Tevez taking corners and set pieces today.. <br /><br />right now tinkering with:<br />PRob<br />Verm,RogerJohn,SBass<br />Kranj,Larsson,O'H,Gibson<br />Drog,Rooney,EdSbeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14023186987058770884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-20897015158625178632009-12-07T06:22:39.163+00:002009-12-07T06:22:39.163+00:00End Up with 114.5point

In one fell swoop I nearly wiped out two weeks of improvement in the standings. I'm mostly irritated about dropping Carew because he looked like he'd be on the bench at best. He wound up being subbed in and scoring a PK, one of the few to manage that feat this weekend. Once again I fall victim to a late injury news head fake. Even undoing all the moves I regret, I would've wound up with only 80 or so. Just not my week. I also should've listened to my gut on Fabregas (plus I never seem to pick the right Gunner anyway).<br /><br />Okay, just shake it off...Bradleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-69001267801223812722009-12-07T02:47:36.804+00:002009-12-07T02:47:36.804+00:00Three goals and only 82 points.

My entire back line got clean sheets (Dunne, Brown, Hreidarsson) but lacked the big scorer to put me over the 100 mark.<br /><br />Fabregas, Drogba and Agbonlahor disappointed and Eduardo didn't play. Bily did well when he had the ball but most of the action was on the on the side of the pitch (Jo must go!).<br /><br />BD'ed Seamus Coleman in case he gets a chance to start.
