A modest to good 73 plus Sanchez for me (once King is substituted in). After about 10 weeks I was 44th and actually had to scroll down to check if the 50th place and below was on another page as I was that close to it. So I am chuffed to be knocking on the top 10's door!
I kept faith in my manager (couldnt afford to pay compensation) and he's guided us to a respectable position despite major injuries and Bazfer activity ;biggrin
#Love In An Elevator... Living it up when I'm 'going down'
Or, with transfers in mind...

#Goodbye to Love
Or....
;wahoo
;hmm
in 32 weeks.
How rubbish is that? ;doh
I'm not even going to count the points I would have had. ;weep
The fact is, over season, a large amount of luck or bad luck will influence our position.
You've pondered and studied. You have your favorites and those players who never do well for you. Your team looks kickass on screen and you're ready!
Then you're shiny new striker gets crocked after 12 minutes! Someone gets injured in training or on international duty. Another gets a virus, one gets malaria, inexplicably dropped, fights with the manager, gets red carded, another decides they'll go on strike to force a move to Marseilles! You name it and it can happen if you just happen to have the wrong player at the wrong time...
We all have our share of back luck no matter how well we plan (wildcards,chips, bazfers). Sometimes we get lucky and Mr anonymous all season on the bench bangs in a goal and an assist plus would never have got on the pitch if we didnt have an unexpected withdrawal as he was playing against Chelsea away. Who'd have thought it! Sometimes we can transfer in Mr on fire just before he gets really on fire. Unexpected goals assists, bonuses come up plus near escapes when you transfer Walcott out just before he's injured for 2 months
At the end of the day, you know you know what you're doing. You know who's good, bad and ugly. You know your knowledge is better than that guy in Singapore who inexplicably has more points than you. You just need that one season when you get the rub of the green more often than not...
Then you can ask others who's top of the league because your app is playing up
;lol ;clap ;wink
I am a whopping 339 points worse off than had I chosen the highest basic points scorer in my team each week
And that on top of the 80 points I've lobbed away on unauthorised Bazfers
;weep ;weep ;weep
;sofa
Me. My app shows that I am top of the head to head league ;angel ;biggrin
Fixed a few glitches
;wink
but considering I'm not even in the league ...........
;lol
They look the same to me ;whistle
