The Wobbles - an attack of the nerves, loss of form, loss of confidence, playing like Tottenham - call it want you want but it all means the same thing - they are struggling to win games all of a sudden.

I think there is only the competition left, who will be the first loser. [:D]

Might have to take a point hit this DGW. [:@]

Just to clarify the rules:
if I start a player that has only one game this weekend, I wouldn´t get points from a substitute, who plays twice? (E.g. starting Czech on Sat/Sun, I will not get points from Mannone on Wed. ?)

To my understanding the DGW counts as a single GW in terms of the fantasy league.

Therefore only players with two game appearances in GW 31 can gain points on both games.

All players with just one game will not be replaced.

So for instance, if I start with Czech, I will only get points for the game against Arsenal. If I start Mannone, I would get points for both games.

Hope that makes sense.

Damn - I've been caught out again... I Do not have enough transfers to ensure I get a full team of 11 players playing both games. Thanks for the tip-off though [:)]

Good luck with van Wolfwinkel... in his previous team, Sporting CP, he missed more that he would actually score. [:'(]

He's going to be great this season. [;)] His time at Sporting was just practice [:D]

My Team for the week, at the moment, subject to late change:

de Gea,

Evra, Hangeland, Ivanovic, Johnson(Liv)

Mata, Gerrard(vc), Routledge, Colback

van Persie(c), Lambert

Bench Davis(gk) Johnson(Eve), Chico, Naismith

Mmmmm Man Utd players remain severely lacking in my team.... One thing David Moyes did at Everton was make them hard to beat so having two United defenders may be a good idea.....

Still concerned I should be going with van Persie... thanks alot JeffK you've just made it a whole lot harder to decide again [;)]

Back to the drawing board.....

Yes, I did all the hard work, Suarez is just on for the ride [;)]
Having him as Captain is probably what has made the difference I would say.
3 more goals and an assist today, so should be another decent week I think [:)]

Arsenal cost me big time yesterday.

Hoping my gamble of filling the team with players who are going to play twice this week works, though god knows where Dzeko got to.

Imo that is the problem with ManCity players, there are so many good players on that team that you are not guaranteed to get your players on the field, with a few exceptions (Czech and Terry to mention two).

Another win for the mighty clarets means that we go into Saturdays match with Leicester City knowing that a win will put us top of the league!

Oh, and Dzeko turned up!

Thanks a bunch Fulham. I don't want you to get relegated - and so didn't want you to lose today [:(]. BUT, if you are going to lose, couldn't you at least do it without scoring??? That was 10 points lost thanks to that totally pointless goal [:@]

Hey, thats why I benched Howard. [:'(]
Hopefully Sun vs WH will be an uneventful and boring 0-0 draw.

Aside: I hate to have Chelsea players on my team.[:@] (But I like that Mourinho gets what he deserves.[:D])
