PL Last Man Standing Picks and Chat 22/23

[Jluv]

Congrats @Irish Aris !!! Wow that was a killer round..

[Edser]

Congrats @Irish Aris - well played 👍

[E.N.]

Well played Aris!

[aaronjennings]

I love the smell of a new LMS game in the afternoon





Brighton vs Man City, and Man United vs Chelsea are both postponed to make way for the FA Cup semi-finals, so there are just eight matches to choose from


(@ all previous players, in case you are interested @ari101 @Neowise @Trigger @E.N. @Zaph @osh @Sawduck)

And new players are always welcome


On a side-note, there is also a full midweek round next week, starting on Tuesday. Does anyone have any preference as to whether to include it in the game, or skip it given how quickly we would have back-to-back-to-back rounds?

[aaronjennings]

Surely... surely they can win that game... I'll pick Liverpool

[Necro]

I'd include it if it suits you aaron but don't mind either way.

New game, new picks, same team though. Arsenal for this round

[E.N.]

Surely... surely they can win that game... I'll pick Liverpool

Palace please

And yeah, I'd include midweek now that you've flagged it, but happy either way

[ShaneU]

Arsenal

[nothing]

Wolves please

[Jluv]

Going to get the pain out of the way early.. Liverpool pls😊

[Edser]

Week 1 - Arsenal please

Week 2 - Newcastle 


Edited to include Week 2..

[Kol]

Well done @Irish Aris

Arsenal please aaron,

Happy with the mid week idea also, you could nearly throw up the fixtures now and have everyone double pick in case they forget

[aaronjennings]

Happy with the mid week idea also, you could nearly throw up the fixtures now and have everyone double pick in case they forget

Good thinking, here are the next two rounds of fixtures, including this weekend's round and the following midweek round:


WEEK 1





WEEK 2




Whether you submit both teams at the same time, or you want to wait until after Week 1 before picking Week 2, the choice is entirely up to you

[Edser]

Thanks. Edited initial post above.

[E.N.]

Palace please

And yeah, I'd include midweek now that you've flagged it, but happy either way

For the midweek one I'll go Brighton please

[nothing]

Week 2 Fulham please

[Irish Aris]

[E.N.]

Palace please

Well, balls

At least I took down the champ with me

Ah  how nice to win a second time!! + now I'm in the Europa League spot!!!

Crystal Palace for week 1.

[aaronjennings]

Arsenal's faltering run to the title cedes advantage to Man City, and even worse... causes five players to drop in to the Fogopa League, along with a handful of people who misplace their faith in Wolves and Eagles

The consistently-inconsistent Liverpool are the only chosen team to pick up a win:

Player	Week 1
aaronjennings	Liverpool
Jluv	Liverpool
Wichita Lineman	Liverpool
Fogopa League
Edser	Arsenal (D)
Kol	Arsenal (D)
lorcand1990	Arsenal (D)
Necro	Arsenal (D)
ShaneU	Arsenal (D)
E.N.	Crystal Palace (D)
Irish Aris	Crystal Palace (D)
nothing	Wolves (L)

[aaronjennings]

[aaronjennings]

I already have Week 2 selections in from everyone, except for Kol and Shane (and myself)





Edit: I'll pick Aston Villa

[ShaneU]

Man City

[Kol]

Chelsea please, they are due a result

[nothing]

Ah, consistent failure. How I thrive with thee!

[Jluv]

Seeing as there's only 3 of us left and @Wichita Lineman picked Brighton first, I'll change to Man City so none of us have the same team..

[aaronjennings]

(Posting a day early to give people time to submit their predictions for this weekend)


Jluv's late switch turns out to be a tactical masterclass, as Brighton suffer a hangover from their FA Cup loss at the weekend, sending Wichi in to the Fogopa Lague. After just two rounds, it is only Jluv and yours truly who remain in the chase:

Player	Week 1	Week 2
aaronjennings	Liverpool	Aston Villa
Jluv	Liverpool	Man City
Fogopa League
Irish Aris	Crystal Palace (D)	Aston Villa
Necro	Arsenal (D)	Aston Villa
E.N.	Crystal Palace (D)	Brighton (L)
lorcand1990	Arsenal (D)	Brighton (L)
Wichita Lineman	Liverpool	Brighton (L)
Kol	Arsenal (D)	Chelsea (L)
nothing	Wolves (L)	Fulham (L)
ShaneU	Arsenal (D)	Man City
Edser	Arsenal (D)	Newcastle (TBC)

[aaronjennings]

Yes, the Arsenal vs Chelsea game is part of this gameweek, it's a weird schedule of games this weekend

[E.N.]

After just two rounds, it is only Jluv and yours truly who remain in the chase:

We (collectively) are so bad at this game 🤣

Newcastle please

[ShaneU]

Newcastle

[Edser]

Man City for me please

[nothing]

West Ham please

[aaronjennings]

I'll take Man City as well

[Necro]

Fulham, for the lols

[Jluv]

I'll go back to Brighton this time,.

[lorcand1990]

Newcastle please.. I'm in danger of doing an arsenal myself here
