Suárez visita a los GREIM (Photo credit: Gobierno de Aragón) |
Judging who to make Captain: Sturridge or Suarez was the issue for several managers. Suarez had not scored a goal for a week or three while Sturridge had a run of scoring in his previous 7 matches. Choosing Suarez to return to scoring this week paid off with a score of 30 points with him as captain. (The military men could be 3-star Generals rather than Captains ....but you get the idea?)
The wrong choice here gave Little Ted a blip but the team remains well ahead (61 points) of 2nd place-Florence Dynamos. Gotodobetter has made a big jump from 6th to 3rd in the last three weeks to lie 31 points below Florence.
The irregular pattern of games to come offers hope to 17 of us to improve our standing. Although in the end all PL footballers have the same maximum appearances, namely 38, there is the likelihood that some regulars players may be missing from the Premier League in the coming period of additional European and International matches. Injury, fatigue, pressure will apply to some popular players much more than to others, as will 'being rested'.
It may be worth bringing in players who have only the Premier League commitment.
In the end though won't most of us just ramble through with a week-by-week plan? Hoping for the best is economical and can produce short term results - are the 10 matches left to us short enough to count as 'short term'? Or long enough to require some kind of plan?
Allotments League
Still the same 3 or 4 in the lead. Another draw at 45 points each for Nick and Joanne's teams. Another narrow defeat for Dynamos, by 2 points!
