Game Week 5 Table & Game Week 6 Chat

[StevieDay1983]

Well, there's a familiar face at the top of the Punters Lounge Fantasy Football League this week and it's our good friend @StevenKing and his Nanakorobi Yaoki team! The experienced maestro picked up a decent 86 points this week to soar to the summit. Interestingly, he didn't even need to captain Erling Haaland or Luis Diaz in his team to earn that points total. Is this an ominous sign for the rest of the league that such a prolific name has taken the top spot so early? 

Manager of the Week was a convincing result this week with Danny Martins' Ideas Unlimited tallying up an impressive 97 points. The decision to captain Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson was a stroke of genius and allowed the 0 and 1 point return from Manchester City duo Ederson and Josko Gvardiol respectively to go unnoticed. It was also a total that moved the team into the top 10. 

At the other end of the spectrum, it was a return to the dark days for our favourite failure Andy Elliott and his Andellio side. A total of just 20 points saw them take the worst score for the 4th time in the first 5 weeks of action. It is an unprecedented achievement that deserves reluctant praise in its own right! This total has put a temporary halt to Andellio's climb up the table and they are now back to being 89 points adrift of their nearest rival at the foot of the table. 

The competition is undoubtedly hotting up. Not only is the big name of Steve King leading the way now but a few familiar names are in the chasing pack such as @patriciamarc's Lucas FC, @dwikyeddo's Cyber Tech FC, @mickyftm32's Mikey's Mooses, @roy keane's Harchibald, @Alastair's Trojan Horse, @Raphael's Nito United, @chillymonster's Chillymonsters, and @Team Sagga's Team Sagga. Exciting times! 

The transfer deadline for this coming week's matches is 11am UK time on Saturday 28th September. Best of luck to you all!
