It didn't even consider putting City players in my team. I think I had a brain lapse and forgot that Yaya Toure existed.

Don't worry, it's nothing Yaya Touré hasn't done.

If anyone is still playing and hasn't got fed up already :v: don't forget there are some Friday matches this season, so this week's deadline is 6:45pm on Friday, rather than Saturday morning.

I made food
some of my stats from the first 2 weeks with two worthless scousers to go:

Goals scored: 0
Defensive clean sheets: 0
Assists: 2
Players dropped out of their starting elevens: 4
- incl. Walcotts: 1
Players who have not in the two games so far managed the titanic task of staying on pitch for 60 minutes without loving something up and getting minus points: 11
Goon league position: 99



I'm quite optimistic, we have a young ambitious squad and can't possibly expect to rival all those oil teams placed 1-98 right

Oh I know. One clean sheet, one assist and one goal so far. My team is diabolical.

I saved last week's transfer, so I don't want to lose it by using my wildcard this week. Walcott has to go, for a start though, and he's losing value, he'll go down another 0.1 tonight.

I did get a second clean sheet actually. From Micah Richards sitting third on my bench last week.

My team is garbage but I can't play the ol' wildcard yet.

What's the deal with the special options? Are they one use only? I hosed up by selecting Benteke as my triple captain on GW1...

if you could use them every week theyd be called options.
last week i had myhill and cathcart ion the bench which is quite annoying. but at least i put skrtyl as captain.
two changes to make this week so probably time to get kane out.
darmian is a revelation at rb.
not sure which keeper to pick. cech plays liverpool. myhjill plays chelsea.

I've put Big Yaya in for Walcott so any of the following now represent value bets:

- Walcott first goalscorer
- Walcott any time goalscorer
- Red card in city's game
- Own goal in City's game
- Ringing up Yaya's family to express your goondolences in advance

Had two players give me 0 minutes and had subs that didn't play either. Screw me.

Can anyone explain what the options are all about?

tbh I thought both defenses would be poo poo and it'd end up 2-2 or something I think that's reasonably realistic

Ah, so you issued a parity warning. My defence has been rock solid this term. I'm a bit "over" captaining strikers though.

Sorry I'll try to be more constructive. You're making both a lot of reactive moves (mahrez) and ignoring a lot of better value teammates (clyne). If you want to do your wildcard I'd just copy a top 5 team, such as mine. Aguero and Costa haven't shown potential to match price tags and Pedro doesn't take set pieces so is not for the long term.

They've performed well but there are cheaper options out there. It's all part of what gives followers of the Championship their edge.
