I hope you did the decent thing.

a good enough saturday for me, 1 game sunday and 1 monday.
Carragher scoring 0 was a surprise..
And Arsenals Adebayor let me down..
Geovanni came up trumps..glad i subbed the other two Hull players, playing safe, but they should be back to normal got 2 hard games out of the way now.
And my New signing Lampard did a great first run out..
So who shall i put in the transfer market this week...who is weak...? :-k

And all players that had ronaldo must have a smile on their faces...if you captained him. :D

Not a good week for me. My new central defender scores an own goal, but I wasn't too disappointed in that :D and my main attacker gets sent off. :( . As usual my captain did nuffing.
Decided to do some spontaneous transfers which means next week I'll lose 8 points. Looks like for the rest of the season I'll be doing catch-up with BM. :cry:

According to Physioroom next Saturday. Might be an idea not to buy Stephen Reid... Out till June next year... :shock: :shock: :shock: On second thoughts I'm falling like a stone... Buy him buy him, he's okay now... :^o :^o :^o

Anyone wanting to jump on the Ronaldo band wagon...will have to fork out over 14 million, so a few sacrifices on other players will have to happen....maybe he has had his run for a while...just like Rooney. :mrgreen:
Don't delay over transfers watch the price go up if they get popular, i did an imediate transfer on Lampard after Wednesdays games...the next day he went up in price and i would not have been able to buy him.

Its frustrating when if like me you find it hard to kick out players(that seem not to get decent points) that are still high in the points table......sometimes you need to chance your arm.
Excellent Fun..and stress too. 8-[

Might be doing the same, just been looking infact...my main striker is laid up for a while, and not happy with some of the slackers,Mmmm Ronaldo could be heading for an appearance ...got all my ideas written down in the " Notes" section of the FF site..
Anyone else go that far...or is it just me...? :-s

Adebayor out injured for three weeks.
Van Persie suspended till 16th November.
Torres wasnt even a sub for the game against Athletico Madrid so must still be a doubt for this weekend.
Anyone who has got any of the above three players take note for this weekends games.

Will keep hold of Adeb.... was going to out him this week, but done a transfer already, so he will wait on the bench, next weeks window might be differant, but who can take his place i wonder.. :-k got an idea but will wait and see. :mrgreen: , probably rest him and not sell, as i will have to buy him back in a few weeks.

So who has transfered Ronaldo in this week...? :lol:

Yes watching Torres situation closely... I have Gallas and he is amber flagged with a bogey hamstring. Had to let my head rule my heart and got rid of fellow Dubliner Keane in favour of Daniel Defoe... ;) Maybe at times he feels like Robinson Crusoe.

I Read that Gallas has a high chance of playing this week....Defoe, now wonder how many managers have brought him in this week in place of Adebayor...i watch the percentages rise and fall daily, i can handle it i can honestly. 8-[

I'm not convinced DeFoe will start in all away games. I reckon Adams will play just one holding forward, Crouch. I'm thinking of selling DeFoe soon.

I have had to take a knock of 4 points this week that I can ill afford with Walcott and Eboue both injured. I wanted to transfer them both just not in the same week :?
Fingers crossed for a better week [-o<

I've got Ronaldo in my team.I think up to last week the only other one to have him was souness ?
The last two games I've jumped from a lowly 8th to 3rd.I scored 127 points in those two matches and Ronaldo got 64 of them ! :D
If you dont have him then I think you certainly need Lampard or Gerrard in your midfield.
Upfront is more difficult.Torres has been a little injury prone up to now and Adebayor is now out injured.Defoe has gone off the boil a bit recently....maybe waiting for his January transfer back to Spurs.
Robinho blows hot and cold.Zaki has done fantastically well up to now but will it last ?
The United strikers,Berbatov and Rooney are doing OK but dont play every match.
So difficult decisions to be made eh,guys ! :-k

Been looking for a way to get Ronaldo back on my team so Adebayor going down for 3-4 weeks was a blessing in disguise. Had to combine a transfer, losing Adebayo/Arteta but gaining Ronaldo/Fuller, to make the numbers come out right. Yep, Ronaldo currently at 14.4 million and Adebayor at 11.2 million. Took the captaincy away from Lampard and gave it to Ronaldo so might regret that one, maybe. Downside is starting the weekend matches at -4 points. Have to admit that it's getting more interesting by the week. [-o<
