buwaytress and cygan shared the first place of gw10 by managing to collect exactly 84 points this week. After Watkins and Saka's disappointing performances it was a big disappointment for me to collect only 58 points this week. And I have dropped back to 6th place.

I made terrible decisions last week but that not withstanding, thanks for the update. Also, some heads up, I used my WC so you can change the status in the next update. The one time I bet against Haaland and picked Son, he was the star of the show against Man Utd. I wonder what happened ro the talks about Haaland going missing in  big games  Smiley

As long as Halaand is on the pitch, he's always the first choice PK taker unless he decides to give it to someone else. Missing one or two wouldn't change anything.

Nah, I don't really think that. Miss a few and you're out, especially in a team like City.
They are pushing Haaland to increase his numbers, and Pep is doing the right thing by giving it to him. But I'd really be surprised if he would give him the 5th penalty if he missed 2 out of 4 already.

Whenever we felt somebody was untouchable at City, we were proven wrong quite soon. Haaland's fantastic, but in a team like that you don't have much room for error.

Still, irrelevant now - Haaland's scored 4 after his initial miss which will keep him in the position.

If KDB is on the pitch, Alvarez and others are out of the PK picture. If Halaand is ever unsure about taking a PK, he will always pass it over to KDB, but I doubt the robocop will ever push PK away.

Harkorede – I was planning on having another toe-to-toe with you this season after kicking your a$$ to fifth place prize last season, but you're deep in the relegation zone, and I'm likely to expand my lead to 100 points this weekend. If you still think we're early in the season, we're nearing the end of the first leg games.

Finished top 200k last season, I'm aiming for top 100k this season.

What do you mean now that he is even on penalty duty? He is on penalty duty since the moment he came to City.

I kinda phrased it incorrectly. Last season City had 3 penalty takers - Haaland, Mahrez and Alvarez. I actually feel Alvarez takes them better than Haaland.
Haaland's got a good success ratio - but the same as Salah - I'm never convinced when he steps up to take it.

Considering that Haaland missed the first penalty of the season and Alvarez is a starter now, I felt there's a chance that he'll be the team's first penalty taker if Haaland misses one of the next penalties as well. Haaland has now scored 3 in a row, so I feel he'll remain the main guy even if he misses the next one.

It seems that now I am ready for the owners of Mitoma or Saka to receive points from scored goals.  Wink

Shit, Shit, Shit

Having two free transfers, I gave up Haaland in favor of Jesus and a top Leverpool defender.

Jesus got injured and I had to use -4 to attract Alvarez. In addition, I have Digne... the guy who was the most active and who should have received 3 bonus points. As a result, Aston Villa got an own goal, and as luck would have it, Cash was replaced before (which ruined my mood even more). But I found a way out of the situation... I will bet money on Mitoma or Saka scoring a goal in the next game week. If this happens then I will get money, if not... you guys will not get points (and I will double every time until this happens).

I thought i'll go down a few spots in the rankings once again but the automatic substitution saved me from losing a few points after one of my five midfielders didn't start.

I tried to be cute and captain Watkins as I like playing around with whoever is facing Luton, that's 13pts down the drain from Haaland  Embarrassed
Same here, I always have Haaland as my captain and recently removed it because he's been getting not many points these past couple of rounds and now I missed 9-10 points for picking a different captain.  Tongue

thanks guys for the congratulations, i really didn't think that i would ever win a matchday in this competition, especially since i don't go through the upcoming pairings week by week and therefore change my squad accordingly Smiley
i scored the 84 points with 10 players - Trippier was the only one who didn't score any points this time

Nkunku will be back on GW16 but I'm worried the Chelsea curse will hit him too.
Chelsea will still need to get a goal scorer and goalkeeper at the next opportunity. They look good in every other position except these two. Nkunku cannot be trusted to remain injury free for long, the man can get injured even in training and be out for weeks.

I vice captained Palmer, I expected him to score against Brentford and have a great GW. It did not go as planned but I do not regret it as my former choice of vice captain Bruno Fernandes played even more poorly in the the derby game against city.

Yay for me winning GW! Like Trofo said no need to rush transfers I've really just sat down 2 weeks now waiting out injuries and form while clearing out Brighton.

Such a pity some unexpected player absentees but I guess Diaz playing might not have allowed Nunez to shine so much.

Yeah, you got Haaland, stop being fresh already and keep that armband welded to him! Me, patiently waiting for Darwin to rise and end the order of Haaland with freakish chaos.

Yeah, now that he's even on penalty duty, Haaland is a must pick. I will reshuffle in order to get him, I'm in too good position so far without him but I feel I've pushed my luck a bit too far.
Thanks for the insight and didn't expect him to perform as good as he did thinking this was going to be one of those fixtures that Haaland blanks like he did last week... and had to reassign captain duties to another player which sacks because the Norwegian is among the highest scoring in this gameweek  and missed out on these extra valuable points Tongue

I knew I had to give him captain band, but Salah had an easier fixture and great form coming into this round so I went with stats rather then gut feeling. Still a good enough week for me, so not gonna complain too much.

I actually expected him to have a great game today, United played with a pairing of Maguire and Evans. I think that Trofo and myself would have gotten a few goals against that defence in our prime.

Brendford scored on their first second-half chance. My darling Chelsea games are so scripted that whenever we dominate a game in the first half without scoring, we invariably lose in the second half. Today we're good, tomorrow we're a ass. So inconsistent
Chelsh*t! Jackson needs to be schooled, the team desperately need a finisher. Chelsea were just Lucky against Burnley, we thought they had improved too when they played Arsenal, but against Brentford, shows that they are back to where they were.

Nkunku will be back on GW16 but I'm worried the Chelsea curse will hit him too.

P.S. Is anyone impressed with me keeping Wilson on my team since GW1? Without captaincy or vice, he's now on 5th ranking for points and only on the roster of 5%. I'm genius.
Perfectly show how it is sometimes better to not do anything then rush with the transfers.

This week I went -4 because I wanted Mitoma in the squad and look how that worked out. My other transfer was Gabriel who did not even play. Only saving grace is that people I removed didn't do any better. Survived Watkins so it will be another good week for me. Come on Alvarez time to do something.

City seems like they should wrap up United without too many problems.
