To underline Tottenham's attacking weaknesses, their best efforts fell to their full-backs - Benoit Assou-Ekotto and Chimbonda.And the Manager had both TOT defenders in his squad until an 11th hour change to pick up Gerrard. And thus goes 30 points and 400 places in the rankings.
Five minutes before the break, Ekotto forced Antti Niemi into a diving save at his near post with a thunderous right-foot drive while Chimbonda's late header would have gone in but for the bravery of Boa Morte and Helguson.

Manager's Lament
Fulham face six weeks without injured Boa Morte
I was right on Woodside, Assou-Ekotto, and A. Cole. Wrong on Rooney... but locked Rooney in at $14 and change....
ReplyDelete...and of course...Ballack dumped sewage over all our heads.
Taking those points from Woodside and running. Out with Ballack, Mascherano, and Woodside. In with A. Young, Eboue, and Baptista. Arsenal's result, cheap current prices, and nothing but promoted teams and Charlton for the next month looks like easy scoring.
Bad
Points were pretty hard to come by this week. My best two were AJ and Stefanovic, and it all goes downhill from there.
ReplyDeleteI thought I had a bad week dropping Duff for Parker, but ended up ok, I went up rankings 400 places!
ReplyDeleteBy the way Jeremy, never, and I mean ever, pick JP Angel, he is fantasy death, on a par with Scholes an Drog!
My cheap striker was Tevez, 4.5 pts, whoopee!
how did you get rooney at 14??? did you buy him last summer? lol.
ReplyDeleteMea culpa. I will never pick him again. No matter how cheap.
ReplyDeleteRooney was at 14 and change after the Sat. night update. Dropped $4+ Sat night. Sold Rooney and re-bought him two dollars cheaper (didn't want to update value of whole team). Then Rooney went back up $2 Sunday night. :D

Just looked at post, and realized it may not have made sense. Let me clarify...
ReplyDelete-Rooney Friday night $18+
-Rooney after Sat. games down $4+ to $14+
-Sold Rooney for the $18+ I had previously bought him and left slot empty.
-Re-bought Rooney immediately at $14+
-Rooney went up $2 in Sunday night update to $16+
Bad
