Just noticed I lost my head to head against an Arsenal supporter. Not sure what they're doing in a VillaTalk league?

Just had a look. We've a fair few non Villa fans in there. A few Arsenal, a Wolves, Brentford, Chelsea, Fulham. Could be away fans on the forum.

36 points, 864k red arrow. Rough one. 

[tomav84]

not a disaserous week, but i've slipped down to around 80k now and lost top spot of the VT league

[Wainy316]

Drawn two games in the H2H already.

[astondalston]

Made it to the top of VT league!!

This is the summit of my life's achievements, exceeding even my long distance swim in my pyjamas at the age of 7.. 

Its all downhill from here...

[a-k]

I'm T-2 in the overall league but have only won one match so far in the H2H...go figure 

[Stevo985]

Ended up on 39 last gameweek. Shit week.

Feels really congested this season. I'm 20th in my paid league but only 20 points off 3rd place

One good week at the moment will be huge

I have been struggling to be motivated this season. That's aside from my shite start, although that can't be helping. So I just used my wildcard in a '**** it' kinda way. If it works it works. If it doesn't, I don't really care. I had a good team on paper, now I have a different good team on paper. It's all still very meh though. At least this way it's a bit more interesting than it was.

[Stevo985]

I think my plan is to roll a transfer this coming week, then use them both (maybe a -4) to get burnley and/or Luton players for their DGW, and then wilcard the week after to get rid of them

[tomav84]

i might look at a GW8 wildcard as a lot of teams' fixtures swing after then...city's become tough, arsenal and brighton a couple of tough ones, brentford not great. meanwhile spurs and liverpool are very nice indeed from then

This was my exact thought process when I WC the other week. Haaland is making it a bit boring, haven't moved my captain off him at all and I don't see when I will.

the headache just doesn't seem worth it. kinda like it to be honest. one less decision to make

[tomav84]

decided on definitely wildcarding in GW8. don't have a lot of fires to fight, but just too many fixture swings around then to ignore. with 2 FTs it means i can have a bit of fun this week and next. watkins to morris for a 2 week punt could be a fun one for a start

[a-k]

I stuck with Tarkowski for how many weeks...

[wilko154]

Shocking week already, Alvarez in for one point. Botman in for a hit and now apparently injured.

Just waiting for Jackson to stick 3 past us tomorrow now that I've transferred him out.

[tomav84]

48 points so far with 4 to play. rank around 6k. trying not to get too excited despite never being ranked this high at any point of any season

[Farlz]

Might be time I get in Liverpool players.

[tomav84]

my proposed GW8 wildcard team is going to need adjusting with the various price changes that are going to happen this week

got rid of chilwell already before his price drop tonight

i've gone from ranked 6k to a flippin red arrow...bad day for non-owners of son, maddison, newcastle defence, mitoma and salah!
