WSL fantasy league | MD8 + 1 - 16/17/24 Nov

Huzzah for another Tullis-Joyce clean sheet! The Phallon D'Or marches on(ish)!
 
Flexo's Fantasy Femmes (63) and The Phallon D'Or (60) both did well this week and climbed to 3rd and 4th in the table. However, TheDemonBarbers leapt two places to 16th with an impressive 73 points, thanks to the use of the bench boost. It would/should have been more but for the ridiculous penalty awarded to Everton.

I'm not sure about everyone else, but I have six United and Chelsea players still to add on to the current game week. I'm hoping for a clean sheet for us and goals from Maya and Millie.
 
@Demon Barber having lulled the rest of League into thinking they pose no danger is indeed rising steadily up the table. It's like a Pep Guardiola team slowly hypnotizing its opponent by rocking the play from side to side, before suddenly surging forward.

Chelsea v United is going to be the wild card now. I've also got 6 players in this game. Someone, probably someone who remembered to choose their Captain correctly could do really well.

Chelsea goalless (preferably with a penalty save by Phallon but that might just be me being greedy) and a goal for Maya or Grace would work on multiple levels.
 
I have no idea what will happen to my team this weekend, too many Utd and Chelsea players for me to work out what is best. But, obviously, a win for us will be best!
 
I think the tables have finished updating now and the race is heating up. In particular one manager who initially had lulled us all into a false sense of security is starting to attack.

Star of the week (fortnight actually) was undoubtedly the league's own founding member - @Demon Barber who got a mighty 102. Is that our first ever triple digit management performance? Does this prove that @Demon Barber is in fact a professional FF hustler masquerading as an innocent? I'm saying nothing - just suggesting that the evidence is building.

That said, Boujee Tea FC delivered 94 points and several other players were in their 80s. I suspect some people are refining their team as the season goes on. Whereas others (not mentioning any names but Tooney Town may be a useful example) are starting to fade.

I would have been in the 90s had I not gambled on our own performance and left Millie Bright on the bench... 16 points down the drain! Otherwise, reasonably happy with The Phallon D'Or's slow creep up the table. Helped in no small part by Phallon herself of course!

I wish it did prove something ... other than good fortune. However, despite not being a FF Hustler, I am still out to catch you. I am only 120 points or so behind and I was 300.

My team for the 8th of December is locked in and loaded. Will Tooney Town wilt with the pressure at the top? Can both Phallon D'Or's maintain their steady climb? I just hope we stuff Liverpool 7-0.

You see - this is a problem for me. In my imagination - I'm the kind of FF manager who keeps an eye on the international break, looks at who travelled long distances, who played lots of minutes and who got injured. Then takes that into account and does the last minute transfers and formation to match.

I'm not. I scramble for transfers with ten minutes to go, don't save the formation until it's too late or almost too late and forget to check who my captain is. C'est la vie.

I just hope we stuff Liverpool 7-0.
