I'm basically in the same boat as you.
But I have Van Persie.

Status: offline 		So at the end of Gameweek 1 we have the following provisional scores. I am a little confused as the rules states that subs are used that don't change your own formation - but also states that "doesn't break formation rules".

So I played 3-4-3 but was given a point for a defender who played (but was a sub in my team) and they removed a striker that didn't. Here's the rule:

If any of your outfield players play 0 minutes in the Gameweek, they will be substituted by the highest priority outfield substitute who played in the Gameweek and doesn't break the formation rules (eg. If your starting team has 3 defenders, a defender can only be replaced by another defender).

Anyway here is the table subject to final revision:

1. Last Post (ezz) – 84pts
2. Laralayabouts2 (JeffK) – 76pts
3. Warspite Hotspur FC (warspite1) – 65pts
4. Zeta16 (Zeta16) – 61pts
5. FC Stricker (Admiral Stricker) – 58pts
6. Matrix FC ( th1207) – 56pts
7. Les Paul (VPaulus) – 54pts
8. Tired & Emotional (Dixie) – 53pts
8. Lord of the Ings (Encircled) – 53pts
10. Sardaukars (Sardaukar) – 52pts
11. Ormster United (Orm) – 51pts

I got caught by Mata only playing once, he's been sent to Coventry and Silva is in my squad for round 2.

Its hard to get a handle on everyones position until all teams have played the same number of games.

This is how they line up this week, I'm not expecting much from the defence though.

Status: offline 		It appears that several of you guys have gone for Chelsea and Man Utd players in the same team. I'm not a big fan of this approach in general, especially not putting attackers from one team in with defenders from the other. If your strikers score then the defenders lose points, if your defenders keep a clean sheet then you've lost points from your attackers. Hopefully you've all cocked it up and I'll go top of the league!

Status: offline 		Just one game to go this weekend and I'm looking good so far. It seems that several of our competitors have placed many of their eggs in a Manchester United shaped basket, so a nice 1-0 win for Chelsea would help me a lot Especially if Ivanovic manages to score the goal.

With only 1 substitution per week you cant be flexible enough to keep swapping around.

Did you ever confirm the prize was a ride in the back of the Lanc??

I'd settle for the nose turret!!
