Welcome back everyone. The blog is back at full strength after a summer of relaxing a bit. Join us for our first Live Chat of the season.
My line-up for anyone interested...
Cech, Kolarov, Koscielny, Fabio, MPet, JCole, Gera, FloMal, Drogba, Chamakh, Boselli
Click "Read More" for the chat recap.
Given that Yahoo! seem to have ditched Choose 'em or Loose 'em in favour of the Pantasist chatting with stooges, any chance of you guys stealing it back ? It was yours anyway, right ?
ReplyDeleteFerreira starting over Ivanovic? Bah!
ReplyDeleteWhat a time to wake up [again]. FloMal with what surely will be a MWG
ReplyDelete@Anonymous - no, Choose 'em or Lose 'em was always the Fantasist's column gimmick - I'd like to think that The Week Ahead is a much more complete (and hopefully interesting) version of the same thing.
ReplyDeleteHow long does Ancelotti keep starting Anelka and Drogs? Would like both of them (w-FloMa) for the next 4 weeks if this is going to be a regular thing.
ReplyDeletedrogs hat trick...why oh why did i leave him out because of the injury doubts
ReplyDeleteAsking myself the same question Matt - just got him on the barndoor for his @Wigan fixture although I had Flomal so that makes it better. Also had Kirkland though... Wigan are now the new Blackpool!! LOL
ReplyDeleteyeah i both had malouda, and bought him on the barn door, so I'm just hoping rooney produces.. points are taking a while
ReplyDeleteGood news: Brought in Drogs at the last minute.
ReplyDeleteBad news: Swapped out Cech, brought in Kirkland in order to do it.
Meh, at least I had Terry for the CS...
good grief. maybe it should be "who's playing wigan" instead of "who's playing blackpool."
ReplyDelete"Who's playing blackpool" went off pretty well I see...
ReplyDeleteGlad I invested in FloMal and Drogba.
ReplyDeleteWhat's with substituting Malouda, Lampard and Drogba...I hope this isn't some sort of trend.
Joe Cole may have just become a +10 after that red card.
ReplyDeleteAfter the disaster of Captain Kirk and not having Drogs on my team yesterday... Joe Cole gets a straight red AND appears to knock out Koscielsny in the process. D'oh!
ReplyDeleteHeh, can you be completely sick of this game after just two days?
JCole is doing no favors to fantasy managers today - gets a RC and takes out Kosci in one shot. Looks like most of us we'll have to find 2 new replacements for next few weeks.
ReplyDeleteHope Kosci is OK, the way he went down looked bad.
reina pulls a rob green to let arsenal equalize, then koscielny gets a red in the SIXTH minute of extra time. as a liverpool fan, the only thing i can pull out of that is that we almost beat arsenal. as a yff player, all i got is two red cards
ReplyDeleteSome teams had koscielny, JCole and didn't have Malouda or Drogba!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a total disaster for those teams.
Points are updated !
ReplyDeletewow. what a start to the week.
ReplyDeleteKos+JCole see red. Kirk with -10. I decided to go with Rooney over Drogba.
I guess time to drop JCole/Kos as they'll be suspended. Time to work the Barndoor. Guys like FloMo/Drogs have gone DOWN in price actually.
Kos + JCole with reds. Captain Kirk lets in 4. Swapped Drogs for Rooney due to injury doubt. Bottom of my private league that I've won for 3 years running. Worst start ever to YFF for me.
ReplyDeleteOh and on a seperate note. Jeremy + Neal.. What are your teams called?
Now prices are updated but to prove I'm not a muppet.
ReplyDeleteI have Drogba at 20.70, FloMo at 12.93, Bale at 13.08...
is larsson, from birmingham and drogba a better option, than van persie and valencia, if he does well. for this week, i have malouda and valencia. i dropped boselli for chamakh or should i try to get cesc into the picture.
ReplyDeleteor van persie and downing?
ReplyDeleteBerbatov and A Young or....
ReplyDeleteDrogba and D Jong?
