I very nearly swapped Gerrard for Mata at a cost of -4 points, but either way I would have got 15 points.

I'm now holding out for a 2-2 draw between Tottenham and Sunderland, with Mannone and Eriksen grabbing a pair each.

Rodriguez's knee fell off and it was the beginning of the end for my gameweek.

What is the Gameweek 1 league?

I have injuries all over the field! Can I borrow someone's wildcard please?

You could have had mine, but I used it up about 35 minutes in to the season.

I used mine far too early this season. Need to resist crying like a c**t after a bad GW3 next season and wasting it.

I feel qualified to say that the WC is as much a curse as a blessing.

Both Steve and I saved ours up until recently and yet we both had to take points hits the following weeks. It's probably a mistake to spunk it within the first five weeks of the season, but saving it isn't necessarily good practice as pressure builds.

I think the thing is to not see it as a free high score, because it isn't - it can help build a good score but it can throw in the way of a ton of injuries and leaving you managing players that you've brought in Tottenham style and aren't as familiar with as if you bought them week by week.

I see Don has uncharacteristically kept £3m in the bank. Planning a s Sturridge to Aguero switch, geezer? I would advise against it.

I just happened to have 3 mil in the bank after swapping Rooney for Lukaku. There are no great plans for it. I'd like Aguero but can't justify dropping Lukaku, Sturridge or Suarez. Have you bought Ramsey?

No. I considered it, but I don't think even Ramsay could revive Arsenal at the moment. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a goal or two though. He is Arsenal's best player, by far.

Riding into the double game week like a riverboat gambler.

Aw, I'd love to be a riverboat gambler.

It's really not any sort of complicated gambit. I had to swap out De Gea as my other keeper doesn't play. (That 0 when United got a clean sheet last week really hurt) and then Hazard went and pulled his calf so he had to go as well.

Ah
Unfortunate, but gives you a chance to get some DGWers in.
A couple of my injuries have just disappeared.
Cushty!

There's not much to play for now. I'll probably catch Don, but it'll go right to the wire and he could come back on the last day like last season.

Splodge has much the same team as me so he's probably unreachable.

It's been a strange season all round but I'm likely to finish in the same position as last year so I guess that shows consistency...
