It was an okay move but given De Bruyne’s injury troubles it was completely needless - he doesn’t even have a higher ceiling than Aguero or Sterling.

Removed Ryan and Duffy. Of course they had to keep a CS against Wolves away from home.
Removing doublers was always a mad risk
Huddersfield getting that goal has pissed me off.
Especially as a I did Dunk > Cathcart. At least Ryan on my bench will get some bonus points.

these 2 doublers gave me a combined 2 points in the previous DGW.
Another successful DGW, I don't know why I bother
49 points so far but took a 8 point hit. Up to 3.1k OR and have 3 Liverpool (TAA, Rob, Mane) and possibly Kolasinac to play tomorrow. Hopeful I can climb the ranks.
Relieved I avoided KDB as was seriously considering bringing him in for the run in and would have taken another minus 4 so I had him for this dgw. Very unlucky to anyone who brought him in.

We all held the bench boost all season for this - and it's turning out to be one of those really underwhelming ones!
Even getting 15 from bench, with two of them still got a game to go, I got only 48 points. Not sure why I'm doing so shit to close out the season. The guy above me can't be caught anymore I reckon. He's about 60 points ahead thanks to captaining Delafeou. So annoyed.
Happy I stuck with Deulofeu
fecking took him out for KDB
How do you take a -15...?
Looking at his team i don't know!!
But like me he took out vardy. Although i have double game Rashford to make up for it potentially.
He also took out Leicesters other scorer.
Slipped Deulofeu in last minute also, was tempted to captain him but with him being potentially injured felt a bit too risky.
Triple Brighton defense finally paying off
Double Liverpool defence did the business today. TAA assist and bonus points and Robertson. Kolasinac flopped again, as did Mane.
Up to just outside 2500 OR. Will TC Mane Friday night.

I've 63 so far with 13 players still to play on my bench boost. Captain Jiminez didn't do the business against Brighton but hopefully he can make the most of Arsenals struggles on the road.
76, 12 left to play.
Duffy to Kolasinac blew up in my face, as fully expected. Brighton players always troll me.

76 is a pretty excellent scorer!
I didn't even check mine after about 39 yesterday (with a -8!) as Kola,Rashford and Pogba did nothing, neither did Mane, and a 6 pointer from Matip won't get me much further than close to 50 all in.
52 with 9 players to play again. Shame that KdB is out though.
Another shite week with 9 less than the ML leader. He didn't have his wildcard though so hopefully I'll manage a miracle.
43 with bench boost is so shite.

Bring in Valery they said...
Monreal always starts they said...

Couldn't have predicted Valery falling ill a day before the game tbf. It was the right decision, can't account for luck screwing you.
They conceded loads anyway and he should be back second game though.
Bench boosts can often be underwhelming.
Mane and hazard one assist between them for example, playing two crappos
I have Valery and I'm resigned to the fact that he won't play tonight. Unlucky but what can you do.
Me too, a shame, but most likely they'll concede.
At least he screwed himself over, along with the rest of us.
Brighton players on the bench. Clean sheets all round. Fkin typical. Fk this game.
Last minute Eriksen goal did absolutely nothing for me as it took the points off Duffy. Might mean a couple of extra bonus points I suppose
Waving goodbye to 2 clean sheets in the final minutes. Ryan and Bednarek
Feck. The Watford one cost me 5 points though.

A guy at work lost 3 clean sheets in the last mins
Ryan, Duffy and Yoshida.
I'm not even fussed at the Duffy one now

Gunn and Duffy this end. My ML rival had Gray too. This game, man. This game.
At least he screwed himself over, along with the rest of us.
I'm surprised when they're so strict on betting that this is allowed.
101 points with 5 left to play including Captain Aguero.
It’s good, but it was looking so much better when Brighton and Southampton both had clean sheets at 88 minutes

that is a silver lining.Tidy 1 pointer has to be a bonus.
Magnificently, he was the guy I mentioned earlier who had taken a -15 too.
I took -8, and I wasn't miles behind, so him triple clean sheeting would have put him out of sight again.
It’s infuriating.
What makes it worse is logging in and seeing the lovely clean sheet points. I checked at 86 minutes and they were there looking delicious, then I refreshed a few minutes later and both gone
fecks sake Brighton. Ryan and Duffy - 2 points against Bournemouth + Cardiff & 20 points against Wolves + Spurs. And I removed them, taking a hit.
At least Long and Eriksen scored.

That’s a great score. What was your bench boost team?
