Fantasy Premier League: Week 15

-

With Week 14 really giving me a boost, I was looking forward to Week 15 and seeing if I could close the gap on first place in the £15 Super League a little more.  Read on to see if I was successful in this or not...
I made another transfer this week, bringing in Mane for Lamela who is still out injured.  He went straight into my team with Negredo moved to the bench.

De Gea - 8
Azpilicueta - 9
Koscielny - 2
Williams - 1 (automatic substitution for Mata)
Lovren - 0 (injured)
Kante - 2
Capoue - 2
Eriksen - 2
Mane - 8
Ibrahimovic - 2
Costa (c) - 16
Negredo - 2

Subs: Pickford - 1, Kingsley - 0, Mata - 0, Negredo - 0.

Total: 52 / 766   (average - 46)

Saturday was very low scoring for me, with just 4 points, from Koscielny and Capoue.  Luckily on Sunday things were considerably better.  My score wasn't as good as last week, so I felt a little deflated with that.  Saying that, the average gameweek score was 46, so with 52 I was over this week, so I can't really consider it a bad week.  My points came mainly from four of my team this week: De Gea, Azpilicueta, Mane and Costa.  The best player this week was Azpilicueta, with a clean sheet bonus and 3 bonus points.

Sadly for the second week in a row, Mata didn't get any minutes.  Lovren was injured during his match, so I will have to see how long he is expected to be out before contemplating a transfer for him.  I am thinking about a few different transfers - after all I do have my wildcard left - but I'm not sure if I'd regret them after my team doing well for me so far.  Sanchez is someone I would definitely like in my team though, so I might have a look at how I could get him into my team over the next week or so.

It was a good week with regards to leagues.  I AM (joint) TOP OF THE £15 SUPER LEAGUE.  This makes me very happy.  I can now say that I have been at the top, so am even with J as he was at the top one week this season.  I went up in all other leagues apart from: League Riffiths, League 895135 & Head to Head with J, where I stayed put and @ftbllrswanimals where I lost a couple of places.

My current standings are:





£15 Super League

Look at that!  Right at the top!!!

I'm a bit gutted that there is a midweek gameweek, so I may not get to stay in number one for very long!  Here's hoping my team put in a good performance over Tuesday and Wednesday!

    I have to confess I know nothing about football BUT I actually had a lot of fun reading through this post as this is completely new to me, so I can live vicariously through you with football, and well done on being right at the top on that scoreboard too, yay! I'm going to have to brush up on my knowledge to keep up with your posts on these, haha! - Tasha

      Haha, I realise that probably a majority of my following won't enjoy my football posts, so thank you for reading & commenting! I'm so pleased to be top aha especially as I have chickened out doing it for a few years as I was too scared I was going to be forever at the bottom! X

Nailsxo World Cup Nails 2014 - Nigeria

Nailsxo World Cup Nails 2014 Nigeria Nails & Football, two of my favourite things! I am so excited to be taking part in this challenge, which is the brainchild of Emily over at Nailsxo .   Everybody who is taking part in the challenge was assigned a random Country which is taking part in the World Cup in Brazil (not long until it starts, yay!).  After being given the Country (I was assigned Nigeria ), the challenge was to make some nails based on the Country.  Also, which ever teams wins the World Cup, the person who was assigned them wins a prize (although, let's face it... I'm not really expecting Nigeria to do that well)! So here they are: My index and little fingers are my own take on Nigerian fabric patterns. I was using my friend google to help me find some inspiration for my nails.  I found a  website about Nigeria , and found out that tie dying is very popular.  I also did a google image search for Nigerian...

Aussie Daft!

If you don't already know, I am a huge fan of Formula One.  I have watched it for as long as I can remember, back in the days where there were races on TV at 3am in the morning. Back then, the driver I was cheering on was David Coulthard - he comes from the same region as me!  Fast forward to 2007 and as well as cheering for DC, I couldn't help but also root for DC's teammate Mark Webber - another intelligent driver and nice guy.  Following on from Webber's retirement, his replacement at Red Bull in 2014 was another Aussie, Daniel Ricciardo.  It is hard not to warm to Ricciardo, as he is one of the smiliest and most genuine drivers on the grid - he is also a very talented racing driver, producing some wonderful overtakes, and completely outshining champion Sebastian Vettel in his first season with Red Bull. What a squad! Touchdown 🏈 excited to be here. Baku! A photo posted by Daniel Ricciardo (@danielricciardo) on Jun 15, 2016 at 12:00pm PDT ...
