Week 21 - My Team

Right, sorry for the delay. Me & a bunch of mates decided to go & see Crystal Palace today, a local club who need all the help they can get after their administration left them -10 and near the relegation zone...they won & it was money (I hope) well spent.

Anyway...my team for this week is

Cech

Ivanovic  Bale  Baird

Lamps  Utaka  Duff  O'Hara

Anelka  Kalinic  Zamora

Not great so far, but anyway, I digress. It's 2 in the morning, I've been drinking for 15 hours & I simply can't be arsed. Let me know how you're doing ;)

Cheers

  1. I have 56.5 points so far with this team:

    Given
    Verm Bale Baird
    Modric Lamps Maxi Utaka
    Landon Tevez Anelka

    So I have 3 to play for sure and possibly Verm... plus some double gamers.

  2. I have 47 points with this team:
    Fulop
    Ivan Baird Hangeland
    Duff J. Cole O'hara Mok
    Rooney Elk Zamora

    Its really kicked me in the arse selling bale financially and points wise. Im not really happy with this week and I really need a brace or hat-trick from Rooney, or even better Mokoena (lol), to make my week better.
    My team for next week right now is:
    Given
    Zabaleta, Givet, Baird,
    Etherington, Jordi Gomez, M. Petrov, Mok
    Rooney, Tevez, Rodallega

    I would love to upgrade Petrov to SWP but I can't see it happening because then my team looks a disaster.

    baird(3), terry(13), stearman(0)

    anyway, does anyone know wheres klasnic last night?.. he seem a good striker for next week bolton triple game..

    Maxer..

  4. 47.5pts with Tevez, Rooney, O'Hara, and Moke to play, dropped Verm not only because he won't play tomorrow, but with a triple week its unwise to hold him against Chelsea and Liverpool, I would rather have a defender playing 3 easier matches than Verm for 2 extremely difficult ones.

    Schwartz
    Baird, Smalling, Bale
    Duff, O'Hara, Barmby, Moke
    Anelka, Rooney, Tevez

    Btw, Bale is possibly the greatest pick up for 2.84mil ever. His output is insane, no CS and still scored as many points as some defenders with a CS. Pick up of the season if he can keep his spot.

    Next week possibly team:
    Given
    Bale, Scharner, Garrido
    SWP, Lee, Eth (open)
    Rooney, Tevez, HRod

    just some pre-BD buying in preperation for the triple week

  5. Good day for Electric Mayhem FC today...sitting on 89 points with O'Hara still to play tomorrow and 8 DGers midweek. Bale, Terry, Duff and Anelka all did the business for me today with Modric and Gera scoring well without having obvious standout games. Almost into the top 1000 overall which is a high mark for me this year.

    Tentative team for next week:

    Given
    Bale Steinsson Shawcross Richards
    Modric N'Zogbia Etherington Lee
    HRod Tevez

    Hope that Rooney gets a red card against Arsneal. :)

  6. PS - AM, shame on you for dropping Terry for Ivanovic. Tsk tsk.

  7. Cech
    Vermaelen Bale Baird
    Bilyaletdinov Duff Fabregas O'Hara
    Anelka Fagan Zamora


    I'm on 55 points with this team, though Bilyaletdinov got a 0 and Fagan didnt start this first game, with Vermaelen expected to get a zero too. Left with O'Hara and Fabregas in the first round

  8. I wish i kuld play 3.3.4. Donovan and kalinic r there2stay in my team coz of da price. Bt i also want tevez and rodallega 4the 3games! But samtyms i fil yahoo are very shallow and amateurish when updating players and points. AM kan u tek our collectiv complains 2 them. Where is zaki? Maxi stayd quite a whyl 2be included. If u look at premierleague.com fantasy football they r so upto date. Abdul

  9. 52.5 points so far with the below team

    Given
    Bale Baird Clichy
    Duff Gera Mokoena Hunt
    Drogba Rooney Tevez

    Rooting for the Manchester's tomorrow and I'll be pretty happy with the weeks' points. Duff and Bale were amazing this week. Great phantom points

    Given
    Bale Baird Steinsson
    Etherington Cohen Petrov Larsson
    Drogba Rooney Tevez

    BD work for triple game week. Is SWP worth it over Petrov. I'd only swap them if I was confident SWP would play all 3...I feel like Petrov will be rested 1 game

  10. Reasonably pleased with my score.

    I have 70.5 points with this team

    Fabs Duff Hunt Utaka Gera

  11. 96,5 points yesterday + Utaka today... 10 DG-ers for midweek...

    @AM - How much beers can you drink in 15 hours of drinking?

    ReplyDelete
  12. 68 points from...
    S. Given
    G. Bale Terry Ivanovic Baird
    Modric Lampard Duff
    Tuncay Rooney Donovan

    Next week looking like this....
    S. Given
    G. Bale Baird Scharner
    L. Modric Lampard N'Zogbia Taylor
    Tuncay Rooney Donovan

    If Drogba comes back all guns blazing this team will be ripped apart to fit him in though.

    How's the head this morning/afternoon AM?

  13. 62 points so far from...

    Cech (5)

    Terry (13)
    Baird, Hangeland, Smalling (3 a piece)

    Duff (13)
    Lampard (10)
    Murphy (4)
    O'Hara

    Zamora (6)
    Kalinic (0)

    It's moved me up another 400 places to 4,660 but not the greatest of weekends. Hopefully Fulham and Chelsea can keep clean sheets in game 2 to make the 4 defender choice pay off.

    Having said that, January has been very good for me as I've climbed 5,000 places. Not a chance of hitting last year's position of 103 but still a long way to go!

  14. robinson
    mancienne, bale , smalling
    febregas, d.duff, barmby, mokoena, utaka
    rooney, anelka

    total of 60.5 :(

    ReplyDelete
  15. I'm supprised you managed to even find the keyboard after that mammoth session Drunk AM, and no spelling mistakes! That's dedication for ya haha :)

    I'm sitting on 58 points with just Utaka and my dark horse Adebayor to go. Not impressed with Geo on the bench, and Fulhams performance in general, buy hey ho, you win some, you lose more.

    My team was...

    Shwarzer
    Ivanovic, Baird, Bale
    Lampard, Geo, Utaka, Duff
    Anelka, Kalinic, Adebayor

    I gutted my team after deadline, so my current barn door team is...

    Given
    Richards, Faye, Bale
    Wright-Phillips, Lee, Utaka, Etherington
    Tevez, Rodallega, Bellamy

    Wright phillips can go for either Petrov or N'Zogbia, but i love the rest of this team, and will probably just stick to it.

    Cheers!

    Tevez - Bent - Zamora
    (56p so far)

  17. i have 88.5 so far with cesc and a non-playing vermaelen to play today. i am really pleased because in blog league 1 i have the third highest score. i moved up another 600 spots. i made two late friday trades that had mixed results. out went nzogbia at +1.4 for malouda. that worked out great 4.5 versus 12.5. the other one was out went kuyt+2.2 and in came zamora. that one was a stinker, but the double game for zamora might change things.
    my team was
    robinson 13
    vermaelen, bale 11.5, nelsen 10
    cesc, duff 13.5, malouda 12.5, cole 2
    anelka 15.5, donovan 4, zamora 6.5
    i am happy with robinson's performance as he is in the middle of an easy 5 weeks.

    out goes malouda, cole, anelka, donovan, zamora. in comes nzogbia, lee, tevez, klasnic and i need to find someone to replace donovan. i might pick up etherington if i can get 40 more cents.

    Scwartz

  19. Currently holding:
    Given
    Verm( :/ ), RJohnson, Bale
    Duff, Etherington, JCole, Gera
    Tevez, Diamanti, Donovan.

    I want to switch Cole/Gera/Donovan/Diamanti to Larsson/MPet/ChuCho/HRod... But I'm 0.4 short.

    Life sucks sometimes..

  20. AM - I am a big fan of this site. You are doing a great job!

    One area I feel we could get a better experience is if your team is posted 1hr before the deadline so we can compare against our team.

    With this in mind, I thought I will start a blog;

    Let me know if this is useful.

    Cant understand why kalinic got 0 points?

    Had 0 points for Robinson last week as well

    Anyone else have him?

    Have dropped malouda to get Tevez on the barn Door, sold teves just before his hat trick :(

  22. Zab is subbed out. Injured?
    I already had him in the BD, should I keep him?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Caleb - it seems that Zab was subbed out because of a bloody nose. I think he will recover by next week unless there was a fracture of some sort, we will have to wait and see.

    - SK

  24. kendo i had robinson last week!

    i am so glad i didn't jump the gun and drop vermaelen. i thought going into today that i would get at least 10 points from cesc and 0 from vermaelen. now it is 10 for vermaelen and 2 or 3 from cesc

    If you want an additional source for assistance with this addictive game, check out my blog on url below. I will blog regular updates on how my team is looking each week and will ensure my final team is on at least 1hr before the deadline. This will give you a chance to compare your team against mine. http://yffassistant.wordpress.com/

  26. OMG - dropped Almunia on the BD y/day, for Given. ouch 1 wk too late. rooney pt's 16.5 just about covered his -12. @Maxer , Klasnic was injured. S.P.

    ReplyDelete
  27. 97.5 points and cech terry duff mokoena ohara going to play....

    ReplyDelete
  28. I'd dropped Robbo for Schwartzer, who got 0.5 points. Robbo? 13. The goalkeeper position in and of itself is dead to me. Hopefully Schwarzer can redeem himself.

    On the other hand...

    Vermaelen was considered highly unlikely to play. Not only did he start, he scored a goal and in the process tacked on match-winning goal points for Rooney.

    My team thus far:

    Schwarzer 0.5
    Verm 15.5 / Bale 11.5 / Baird 3.0
    Eagles 16.0 / Duff 13.5 / Hunt 16.5 / JCole 2.0
    Rooney 16.5 / Kalinic 0.0 / Anelka 15.5

    100.5 with 7 to go Tue/Wed.

    I've BDed from ManCity, Wigan, and Stoke, but I'm not done tinkering.

  29. Kendo

    Schwarzer 0.5
    Verm 15.5 / Bale 11.5 / Baird 3.0
    Ohara 12.5 / Duff 13.5 / Hunt 16.5 / Malouda 12.5
    Drogba 0 / Kalinic 0.0 / Zamora 6.5

    92 pts have b doored teves and eagles by dropping zamora and Malouda

    Will Kalinic be worth keeping @ 2.5?
