I've made Ronaldo my Capt. now - I didnt think I had a bad week all things considered. Van Persie and Fabregas did well. But now obviously I dont have a full team for next gameweek, I guess some teams will make up for it by playing twice later.
Maybe I should bring in the Reading keeper!!

Doh, finished bottom, nevermind, (2 points in it, early days yet)
but with rooney injured might have to re-jig my team a little

Bad week for me. Wenger not playing Eduardo (every year Wenger is messing up my fantasy league by being a dumbass), chelsea losing, man city losing, liverpool winning big time but kuyt somehow not scoring... and alonso is my first sub but I think all my other players played... cause wenger did bring on eduardo 10 minutes for time (!)

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 03 Sep 2007, 13:24

He's just joined the club, come on. He's not going to start immediately. You think I'd play Diarra in the 1st XI?
I recommend Fabregas

Anyway I've caught up a bit now, could all change in one game!
Who should I replace Lampard with

Well... as Arsenal is kinda lacking a natural easy goalscorer, I thought he would play Eduardo, as he's a great player who scores very easily, and also is good in the other aspects of football.

I feel he should be a 1st team regular. Wenger, as usual, doesnt agree with me

This is a 30+ goals a season striker, and apparantly Wenger doesnt need one of those(!)

Welcome back, Rico... and get the fuck away from my spot!

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 11 Sep 2007, 15:17

But he has to be eased gradulaly into the team, no? As would any new player. He'll come good in time.

'In time' doesnt mean shit to me right now, Grim, as he is already in MY team.

And Arsenal is lacking a natural goalscorer upfront, so I dont really see why he isnt in the team. He's a good player and should have no trouble adjusting. The sooner you make hima regular the sooner he will start producing. Wenger is making the same mistake as Mourinho made with Kezman. Kezman is a 30+ goals a season man, but you do need to give him faith and confidence untill he starts producing.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 12 Sep 2007, 07:44

Yeah, 30+ goals a season in his own league. He needs to be given time to adapt to the different style/pace of the Premiership.

You're right though, midfielders like Fabregas are scoring most goals now, maybe he's come out of Henry's shadow?

Wow... we both had a pretty good week, Grim.

And Kuyt and Eduardo didnt even play I believe... so the rest of my team did very well...

Sinks his head in his hands. What a horrible horrible week once again.

I'd like to give Arsene and Chelsea a quick kick to their nuts...

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 24 Sep 2007, 12:05

I was surprised I didnt score more...

Not a bad week though, but brought in Adebayor for next week

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 24 Sep 2007, 12:18

Yeah, who knew that guy would ever score so much... twice in a row(!)

I just brought in van Persie instead of Kalou, and obviously Wenger responded to my transfer by benching Van Persie for the whole match(!)

I'm only below you as I made too many transfers. Poo

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 23 Oct 2007, 10:52

I also had a nice 2nd week, although to be fair, I had that ref from the liverpool-everton game to thank for that. My Kuyt scored twice, but really should have had a red card, and Everton should have had at least 1, maybe 2 penalties as well. So because that ref is an idiot, my Liverpool players got the points

It would be nice if Eduardo would start paying me back for all that trust I have given him.

Ow yeah,. Alex scored his first

What a guy what a guy. There isnt a statue big enough that we should have built him in Eindhoven (for both him and our awesome keeper, Gomes)
