Another crap round for me. Mind you, apart from that time Gerry scored 97 points, I've not been impressed by anyone yet.
Steve's done okay recently - though I assume this to be a complete fluke.

I did drop Raheem Sterling for the first time this week obviously.
Doh.
What I've just noticed is that players values seem to change.
I guess that's dependant on how well they've been doing.
The prices do fluctuate. Ben's team can now be assembled for 50p.

This is my first season of playing the game and I think you could do just as well by picking players at random. There are too many uncontrollable factors to make it feel like you're doing anything yourself.
When Norwich beat Arsenal 1-0 what's the point?
That said, Steve and Gerry both have Nolan who was worth 12 points this week. I actually thought about swapping out Dumb-bell-end for him especially as Fellaini's injured, but decided I wanted to have a week with only one transfer and stop taking points hits. I also toyed with Suarez the week he was worth 20 points but went with Zamora (who scored FA) because he was cheaper. So maybe I've lacked balls as a manager.
I'll play to the end of the season, but with everyone having the same players now it's not likely that there'll be much movement up the league.
As if to mock the last line of my previous post Steve has passed me this week - or I've slipped behind. Congratulations to him, it was a thrilling sight to be passed by eleven gay-looking men with with well-kept moustaches.
Don is also right up my arse now. Only Gerry remains untouchable after scoring two week's worth of points in week 3.
Mike Bassett would have been proud of you last week. Suarez out, Torres in. Swiftly followed by 9 points down the toilet.
That's disappointing, as it says clearly in the rules 'Down the toilet points are worth twice normal points'.

Also kept Mignolet out of goal (8pts) and sold Fellaini because he was injured but he played.
In my defence Torres nearly scored before his early bath - fantastic save by Gayer.
I might be a shit manager but I can't be sacked and the boys live for my post-match bollocking.

That's your problem right there, mate - he's a striker.
I decided to put Begovic in goal again this week as I see another 0-0 for Stoke. However, maybe I should have left De Gea in...
You are dead to me, Podolski! Dead to me!

Oh yes, Wild Card applied. Let's see what sort of impact it makes this week(*)

Just joined - though I've been playing since the start of the season I've just seen this league. So my points and me will be added after the next game - so your all going down sons of pitches! Ahahahaha! And yes I've just chucked Podolski also.
