Ibime:
Mehn, dis kain week na him dey make man delete team.

Almost all my players scored solid 6,7,8 points, only for other ninjas to score awoof with Aguero, Tadic and Pelle.

Dropping like a stone

I know wan hear say you don delete your team again o. If e happen, no more entry for you next season.

Chei! See as Soton shared goals. But I no happy as e be say na only two goals Pelle fit grab. Anybody with Tadic and Aguero don hammer for this week. How I wish I had at least one of the ninjas.

AirborneLacer:
Still, those players' consistency is something you can't trust.

No one is flying under anyone's radar, shey we no dey watch EPL every week?

So na who and who be the managers wey get the higher skill set? Must be same Ibime and Ritchboy who are finding it pretty tough to make first page

Niggas who ran the coast in the 90s!

Skill set ko dribble set ni.

Ol' boy, I fear o. Everybody get him own approach to this thing na. After all, we all want some bragging rights.

Liability:
you don already give up? This is already week 7. You can be the eventual winner of this league.

Remove this bolton wanderers mindset from yourself jor.

Liability, wetin you dey yarn na? We are not talking about liability here o, we dey yarn asset. Bolton Wanderers or not, it's the same mindset that won me the FA Cup at Ritchboy's expense two seasons ago.

azpekuliar:
It's fine when FPL managers come here week-in-week out to sing the praises of Costa, Sigurdson, Fabregas, Sterling etc when they have had a good game week. However, I am left bemused, when managers actually harbour the vain hope that they can somehow close the gap on the leaders with these same "template" players.
That's how to tell managers who know how to play the game, from those who are here to just make up the numbers. The ownership levels of these "template" players is just ridiculous! Costa - 66.3%, Fabregas - 51.3%, Sigurdson - 44%, Sterling - 52.9%. I doubt that past FPL powerhouses like CR7, Lampard and a few other's ever commanded an ownership level as high as 66.3%!

The chasing pack will need to now think outside the box and take more calculated risks with DIFFERENTIALS. A decent GW performance from a differential pick will shoot you up through the rankings. The gravy train only helps you hold your position, but like a car without gas, you can sit in there all day but you ain't goin' no where.

Early last week, when I replaced the suspended Rooney with Sakho, he (Sakho) had an ownership level of just 0.7%. I even had the Captain Armband on him all week, before I switched it, because I felt that might be pushing it a bit too far (a decision I have since come to rue anyway). Despite a Captain fail, I still got a decent green arrow accross the mini-leagues and global leagues.

I recall another instance, in my title winning season. Gareth Bale had one of those injury spells and had been offloaded by hordes of fantasy managers to the point where he had assumed differential status. Ritchboy timed Bale's return to perfection and even captained him. Bale scored a hat-trick and Disvirginators shot up 8 places through the rankings to second place where he was on my tail for the rest of the campaign.

The FPL is a hunting ground where the game ain't gonna be won by just playing it safe for 38 GWs.

In the interim, Intelligesia doesn't seem to be able to run away with it just yet, so it's on!

You have a point there, but one that had been brought to my attention numerous times. But then, that's a piece of advice that head-to-head-centric fantasy managers like me will often find hard to stick to. Heck, the idea of your opponent giving the armband to Costa, and you to Pelle or Ulloa, as in this past week, could more often than not backfire like say tomorrow no dey. I am more open to differential as a team member than as a captain. As I said, my main focus is on the cup like Everton in the Europa.

lalaboi:
Shhh. . Dont loud it

It has already been "louded".

Costa!!!

These players won't cease to baffle. Imagine Naismith waiting for me to offload him for Ulloa before knowing where the net is again. One of those frustrating occurrences in this tin.

See Dier sef for bench. Soton, abeg make una wreak havoc on the back line of dem Spurs wella. COYS!

A BIG miss! Sadly, GTB got this one wrong.

mukina2:

I dey suspect you o, Muki.

Men, see Chadli for bench for this kain week.

I came about this post while searching for info on how to transfer money from the mobile money app to another GTBank account. I've been getting senseless error messages. It's been one issue or the other on this mobile money stuff for almost a month now that I have not even been able to do any transaction with it.

GTBank has been my bank of choice in Nigeria, and I think it still is. But this mobile money of theirs is not doing their image any good. By the way, there is an undisclosed N100 fee to fund the wallet with your GTBank ATM card.

Nihilist: I should have captained Di Maria

Now I'm hoping for Naismith and Aguero to do the biz for me

Hope on the bench. How about that? But I'd like the guy to enter the fray and do something.

nitlad: I ship the gayners, they keep a cleansheet. Useless ässfücks.

Thank fück for Michael Duff, the clean sheet General!

Bertrand you try. . .

Coloccini, you na wastepipe extraordinaire. Shipping goals like say tomorrow nor dey. Transfering you sharpish.

De Gea, make you mah justify tomorrow o. . .

Justified!

Heck. It's a waste of time to hope for these Newcastle folks to keep a clean sheet these days.

tolutweety: I agree with you completely. The fact that he isn't scoring or providing assists for FPL managers doesn't rule out his contribution to the team.He was at his brilliant best in today's match, and save for the 2 assists of cesc to costa,I would have rated him higher compared to the latter.

He s just like Silva in mancity @d moment, not scoring or providing assists,yet,his presence can't but be felt.

Mourinho won't want to do without him...believe me!
FPL managers can decide to trade him off thou
..the choice is ours.

Um...isn't the fantasy league why we're here? For all I care, Chelsea can lose, make Hazard just bring in the points for me.

All ye Rooney faithfuls, feel free to join me in smiling. For now, I think he has saved me from the need to incur greater point deduction.

seyi42k: As an arsenal fan, Let me tell you why Fabregas will outscore all chelsea midfielders this season (including Hazard) due to some of the reasons below;

1. Fabregas is like fire in an enclosed space that burns out all oxygen,i.e. as long as Fabregas is allowed to dictate play in any midfield, other midfielder either plays to his rhythm or become ineffective. This means that all creativity goes thru him.

2. Mourinho will never allow Hazard to flourish as he ought to.If you notice, Hazard had a falling out with him this year over increasingly restrictive roles. In my own opinion,Hazard might never reach the height of his potential under Mourinho. Why? Mourinho loves players who are very good at just one particular trait e.g. defend, attack, pass, shoot (Ozil,Drogba,Ronaldo,Lampard) but players who can handle multiple roles (dribble/pass/create) are either wittled down to their bare fuctional minimum (Mikel) or are jettisoned without ever been maximised (Mata).

Therefore as long as Fabregas is the metronome of the chelsea team, Hazard must either become a goal poacher ala Lampard, a scorer like Schurrle, a winger like Willian but not everything. Players like Hazard are usually given room to express themselves without restriction,however that freedom is given to Fabregas and to a lesser extent Oscar. Hazard, I fear might just be an expensive spot on your Fpl team (get Snachez instead if you have the funds).

3.Fabregas is basically an assist machine and he has formed a superb partnership with Costa.

Anyway the points above are my own opinion and should not be taken as fact. The same problem posed by Hazard is the same with that of Mata. i did not choose or bother to choose Mata because of Rooney's undefined role as the first player to usually suffer Rooney's accommodation in Man U's team is Mata or Januzaj. Rooney is just an enigma or headache for Man U coaches. Due to this fact, I did not bother to choose any of them.

I will appreciate other people's thoughts on the matter.

- Intelligesia

Na Intelligesia you be true true. In fact, you don sway me more. Just waiting to see what the Hazard guy will do in midweek before swinging the axe. In the meantime, let me start breaking the back of the other guys that have been sitting on my money. No time.

lalaboi: The costa captainers are smilling right now. . .

I think after this nobody will believe a costa injury again. .

Just hope sterling outbest him

Like seriously. But sadly, over-priced folks like Terry, Hazard and Debuchy I have kept faith with all this while won't let it count. To think I'm playing -4 against an Azpekuliar fella with active wildcard. Time for serious house cleaning. For the life of me, I still don't understand how Fabregas keeps on out-scoring Hazard.

laoludavid: @op hw. can I check the data bought

Although not the OP, I can help out on this. Use *461*7# for MTN and *229*9# for Etisalat.

Just feel I should chip in a word for gmcbiz. Tested my man with a 250MB MTN data two days back and I don't regret doing so. He kept to instructions given. For now, I recommend him.

bk2020: Which kind of profit is this one..by the tym u spend half of ur commission on transport and feeding..then u will tell me d profit..insurance in Nigeria is a lot of work,how many people are interested in buying them Its nt worth it in my opinion epecially with d stupid targets dey give..abegi beta job go come

Biliki, abi na Becky, I dey feel you. Although I endeavour to be diligent in all I do, working with targets doesn't sound like my kind of job at all.

A40: I tire ooh! Shebi na wetin I been dey try explain to U1 and Mykuli. So I'm supposed to keep duds like Bacuna, Mata, Schmeichel, Odemwingie, Giroud, Nugent, De Gea and miss out on studs like Dier, Costa, Ivanovic, Sigaro, Weimann just because I no wan touch my wildcard. Of what use is a wildcard when you are 150pts behind within 5 weeks? Who told you the wildcard you dey mise would fetch you the most points whenever you opt to use it

Wildcard no be takeaway ooh! You can't use it next season

I know say wildcards no be takeaway. But quick use of it after week 1 is neither an assurance of impressive change in fortune, especially with the transfer window yet to close. In fact, I know a particular ninja who toed similar path but whose team's fortune has not improved more than mine's.

What a week. See red everywhere. On the bright side, though, I managed a green in the FA Cup, thanks to Ibime.

lalaboi: Hahaha. . Name names and flog with cane. . are you afraid bro?

Kai! No put me for trouble. Perhaps, you can help out.

lalaboi: What are these 2 teams doing inside the FA CUP lol

No Mediocres? What an irony. The way this thing is going I'm afraid some ninjas will vamoose again by December as dem wildcards be like say don cause dem more gobe

MaziOmenuko: Wetin I do this arsenal defense nau?

Guy, I tire. This Debuchy guy just dey tie down my money.

Now, Eriksen, I think I have been patient enough.
