The next time a little voice in my head tells me, at 3:30am to take 'Siggy' and Ramsey out and put in Jordon Mutch and Olivey-hair bloody Giroud, I'm going to unplug my laptop, drop it in a tub of vaseline and hurl it off the top of the nearest tall thing. What can only be described as a shit-show of Eurovision proportions went down this Saturday. All my meticulous scheming and for what? A pedestrian 14 captain points from Rooney and sweet FA from the rest of my squad.
I can only hope my mid-priced midfield medley of Fabregas, Nasri and Coutinho can combine with Costa coffee to bring home the bacon points over the next few days. Come on boys. Show daddy what you're working with.
At least Mannone and Rio are starting - and at least I didn't skipper Giroud. Can't help but feel every single other draft team I came up with would have performed better. Wildcard O'clock anyone?
