    And just like the great October Aston Villa defender rush, the December tots defender run is just another of history's follies

    Three straight clean sheets for Villa. I even captained Mings when all other choices fell away.

    Churning them out for the holidays.

    Good to see Barnes playing 90 minutes and scoring goals now that I dropped him. He can be frustrating, especially if he starts getting rotated or subbed at 63 minutes.

    As long he keeps scoring they can take him out after 63 minutes. He replaced a guy getting clean up minutes. I got tired of waiting for something better from Benrahma.

    I'll take Foden for a test drive Lobo and good luck with Pereira.

    I feel like I'm trying well too hard for what is mid table mediocrity either way.

    No, that's the BE-Cup! ;)

    I long ago accepted that there is no other way to deal with it in our drafted leagues. Without the free hit option, we're extremely limited in what we can due, and it (probably) isn't worth destroying your team with a wild card just for a single week. Teams that are healthy and balanced may be able to use subs to squeak out a few additional teams, but it does make sense to just play the long game (and continue to hope that @tarvinodos will some day make a mistake......

    Don't worry. I can never keep a lead. Just ask Lobo...
    Will see if the Shaw, Saka and Lacazette transfers will be the next batch of differential transfers. Can't get to Tuesday fast enough.

    Sterling missed all of his penalties last season. Why would they give him the ball? Good thing he was listed as injured before the deadline or I would have captained him.

    All right new round of seller's remorse. Let see if the Bowen transfer will equal the Foden transfer. With Antonio back, that may be what Bowen needs.

    Right now Mahrez and Walker are a joy to have around...I was listening to the match to hear Mahrez miss a golden chance and then get yanked. Is that 4 matches to sit on the bench alone and think about his failures for Pep to be satisfied that he learned his lesson?

    time for City to let in 5 again perhaps

    Walker finally gets two consecutive starts and Grealish body slams him...

    Just checking to see that Journeymen got John Stones in GW13. Who knew he was going to be a starter and LaPorte to never be seen again.

    Monster week for Top Shelf!

    The triple captain kiss of death. Salah is on the bench vs Burnley.

    Last time you were whinging bout that:p:D did he not come off bench to do a hat-trick in 5 minutes with a couple assist or something like that.

    I never seem to get the triple Captain or bench boost right.
