I bring in Kompany last week against Boro who rarely score (and against City were unlikely to have more than 25% of the ball). He concedes 2 and gets booked - 0pts
This week I reluctantly bench him ( on premise Palace as more dangerous in attack). He gets booked again and I feel a little justified especially as Palace grow into game and look dangerous when going forward in the 1st half. City keep a rare clean sheet and he scores again! ;doh
I think next season FF should make all 15 squad players score points every week. It'll actually be harder to buy and maintain a balanced squad but I cant remember how many times bench players score more than the 1st eleven ;nonono
2nd's no mean feat Expat! I'm glad Ive caught up in the last few weeks. Just 30 odd points behind you ;wink If you look from 2nd to 12th there's nothing in it with one big points potential week in GW37. So we're all basically primed to jump that 2nd place off you picking the right (or wrong) captain could be crucial
well i looked at our teams and decided FWD line and MF were too similar. Koscielny will probably play despite a calf knock but it made me wonder if he'd play both so I got rid of him + a MF and FWD so we're a bit more away from each other team wise.
So the challenge is to get my 8 points back and cope with you having a bench boost too ;hmm As mentioned before, Captain this week is more crucial than normal AND which of the players actually play 2 games ( fatigue, lost title, won title, Europa cup, injuries, flip flops )
So I put a lot of thought into my changes (as opposed to about 50 reckless ones I've done throughout the season ;doh will hopefully be more thoughtful next season) and changed my mind back n forth many times!
So you know in advance what'll happen (especially the players I got rid of ;lol ) whilst you'll flip flop to a win without even looking ;weep
