ohh and I'm going Aguero captain, Palace's current leaky defence is too good to ignore for me

Grubs - I understand your thought processes. I don't think that either option is wrong, and you could end up kicking yourself whatever way you go. Based on what Pep said I would be more worried if Kun had just played 180 mins in South America, which is why I am staying put. But you never know for sure.

Alex - great news. I hope Mum is recovering well. Any objections if I refer to your good news on FFS? I made a veiled reference in my last report but this is your news to share.

Thanks guys, mum is doing well just very very tired! I'm currently up with baby and bottle in my arms at 4:30am but wouldn't change it for anything.
Lord - of course feel free to share my news on FFS, that's a nice touch 😀

Fantastic news Alex - congratulations! Queue the baby celebrations this week when our first goal goes in 😉
I'm just sitting down to do last minute checks on my team now. This Lukaku v Aguero captaincy can go either way I think. As I said previously I trust you guys to do what you reckon is best. It's really hard to seperate the two of them this week.
That's super news that our squad was top for GW11. Hopefully we can make it two weeks on the trot.

Just confirming that Aguero has the armband for my team for this week. My squad below:
Foster Evans Pieters Francis Coutinho* Hazard Allen Sanchez Lukaku Aguero(c) Defoe
(Capoue Amat Holebas**)
Coincidentally my front line is the same as the scout picks. That hasn't always worked for me in the past but I hope Mark and the boys have it spot on this week.
Best of luck everyone.

The Philistines have benched Meghan (-8) and Maitreyasohani (defensive issues and not the strongest midfield), but that still leaves two in their team carrying hits. Good luck everyone.

Kind of letting you guys down. Just got 20 points after BAPS. Costa, Heaton, Alonso to go alongside Pedro but still everyone almost owns them.

Rasib - Noone is getting high scores. I think our edge come from Alsonso and Costa if they can do something. Phoenix have slightly more Hazard and Spurs defence. Its very close.

Spurs Concede so nice for us I assume. Surely Pedro+Alonso should beat Hazard.

Assuming the BAPS don't change (and I added up correctly) I think we are trailing by 6 (128-134) but with two extra players to come (18 to 16). Of these the 4 goalkeeping games each to come cancel each other our, and we both have 6 defender to come, which more or less cancel out. So it comes down to Phoenix's 4xHazard,, 1xPedro and 1xde Roon against 3xHazard, 3xCosta, 1xPedro and 1xFletcher for us. I still like our chances.

I used the wrong keeper for Hooky (7pts to us) and missed Daniels' BAP (1pt to Phoenix), so I now make it 135-135!

Wow what a weird week. Typical post international break disappointing scoring all round. The Aguero v Lukaku captaincy debate proved redundant after all. My fear of scoutpicks jinx remains justified. Only Defoe performed in my attack although he played second fiddle to Anichibe surprisingly.
Personally for me Capoue and Pickford are sitting on my bench with 17pts between them and Sigurdson grabbed a goal post me selling him before the break. Slightly frustrating. I have missed out on all capoues points hauls so far and without sounding too much like Mourinho I'm hoping my luck is going to turn soon.
Great summary of scores lord. It's going to be very tight. Looks like we need Costa to outscore Hazard. Would be delighted to see Hazardgate rear its ugly head again with a last minute injury.
Planning for next week will need to begin very soon. I'm going to wait for Mondays games to finish before I start looking at transfer moves. I will setup a new page for GW13 chat too. Hopefully GW 13 is a little bit luckier for us all 😀

I hate Costa but will be cheering him on today! Glad I played Pickford as he's the only one who's got more than 3 points in my team. At least everyone seems to be having a bad week and we are still in with a shout of winning.
