EPL Fantasy - Week 7

[hobbit]

Rosicky got hurt and as much as I have a man-crush on him, I decided to make some moves.  Used my wild card to complete the transfers needed and really upgraded the team methinks!! 

Schmeichel

Vidic
Campbell
McShane

Gilberto
Dempsey
Essien
Fabregas

Torres
Van Persie
Tevez

Captain still in limbo - Torres or Fabregas to be sure 

Actually leaving Ferdinand on the bench vs. Chelsea - the Blues may be pumped up for the new coach  .  Leaving Vidic though.

Just made my move five minutes ago.  Adebayor for Tevez.  Rooney's return may do something for Tevez but I'm tired of waiting.  Gunners have Derby this week and it could be a goal-fest. 

Some nice moves there Rick.  I'm still figuring out a way to get Torres on my team but Rafa is such a nut about sitting people I need to stick to Pool players who will start and likely finish matches.

Ben Haim sitting for sure this week.  Who knows what's going to happen with Chelsea.  Terry, Lampard, Carvalho and Drogba are all in the tabloids talking moves.  Understood, it's the British tabloids but still. 

As with every week, I have have in front of me a can't fail lineup.   

Funny how that doesn't usually work out.

Adebayor for Tevez.

Adebayor for Tevez.

When they gave him that PK, I actually said aloud 'that fuggin Nolan!' 

I'm screwed though - neither Van Persie or Gilberto played at all!!  .  Guess thats what you can do when playing the worst team in the league.

When they gave him that PK, I actually said aloud 'that fuggin Nolan!' 

LOL.  I said something like 'you go you beautiful fugger Nolan'. 

Called the goal-fest didn't I?  Not exactly long odds on that though I suppose.   

What Rafa did to you is what I'm afraid of.  Torres sits for 60 minutes and earns a single point.  Of course, he did it to me with Finnan and only put him in at the 87th minute.  Watch Ben Haim earn 12 points tomorrow (he's my first sub).

I was expecting the goal-fest as well - but Van Persie didn't even play 

I made one good move (Fabregas), but the rest of my lineup was full of mistakes.  Thankfully auto-substitution got me another 7 points to make the week respectable.

Now to decide what transfer to make for next week - I'm definitely making one.

[Uisce Beatha]

I have next week's transfer in mind already.  I'll wait until Friday just to be sure there are no injuries I need to consider.  Fingers crossed my new guy's price doesn't go up.

Damn it! I changed my captain but it didn't take! I thought I switched to Fabregas but ............... Damn it.
