Updated Individual Table after Round 5:

Updated Team Table after Round 5:

Big scoring players this week were Abraham, Mane, Aubameyang, Buendia and Rashford. Some repeat offenders there...

Pukki with solid points again. Firmino, Salah, Mount and Cantwell also seem to be consistent contributors. 

Picking defenders/keepers in the clean sheet games is a gold mine, and there aint many clean sheets right now... a couple of guys picked Maguire or De Gea and did well with them. 

Ronniemac with a massive week to go 2nd. Libertynz retains the lead despite atrociously picking his Norwich to get a hiding ;) Pukki Party was the only one not to pick them to lose...

I think only 2 people picked any game results perfectly this week, was a tough round in that respect. 

just back from holidays and checked this, can I replace Lukaku with Rashford and Sanchez with Lingard?

Can't help but feel you're throwing points away with this one.

perhaps, happy for any advise if available? I'm not hugely aware of Man U's squad - nor do I care about them enough to really investigate.

Well, RVP, Miki and Welbeck don't play for us anymore.  :) 

Don't want to give too much away, being a competition and all, but you'd probably have more of a chance if you picked David De Gea...

ok then, can I replace rashford with Pogba instead? thanks

Updated Leaderboard after Round 6:

Updated Team Standings after Round 6:

Tough week lads, very tough... very little points on offer from the Norwich and ManU games. Both teams failed to score, or keep clean sheets, so the only player points available were the MOM's. PukkiParty picked McTominay, otherwise no one else got any player points from either of those games. 

Robertson and Kante were both offering some big scores but nobody picked them... 

Liberty stretched his lead slightly. Outside of that, the table compressed a tad, with us cellar dwellars doing ok while the mid-tablers mostly had poor scores. 

Norwich retain their lead in the team table, Pukki Party managing just enough to keep Liberty on track for the double. 

I seriously suck at this!!!

I noticed when tallying scores that you really suffered from picking players that didn't play in the early rounds. When you made your picks early on for a few consecutive rounds, there were a few players in there that didn't end up getting minutes so far this season, or were sold/loaned. 

I think you'll come right now those first few rounds are gone and we're settling into consistent selections. 

Also youngheart, I think you signalled to play your joker card, FYI we agreed to abolish that rule a few weeks back, apologies if you missed that! We're not going to play the joker rounds, just to keep things a bit simpler. 

Missed that, but definitely would have been handy to double my score after that sharke of a round...
