Yeah that save prob won you the leagues we're in. I would have been ahead now bar some butterfly effect possibilities. To be fair, lot's of moments like that throughout the season it just seems more telling at the end doesn't it, when probably it's not. But it is, in a way. We all understand.

I guess I'll have to captain Kane now to make you sweat!

Well my master stroke of shipping out Alonso has made things a lot tighter. Still all to play for! I'll be watching the Spurs games from behind the sofa.

Can't have them all can you. Definitely all to play for, I've had my fair share of luck this season; i guess we all have near the top end of the £35.

The guy top of the £35 has made himself a bit vulnerable too hasn't he. He was plain sailing. Would like to hear his thoughts but I guess he went all in on Spurs. Had that Kane chance gone in early that might have worked.

Still no Sanchez without at least Ozil seems a risk too far!

Yeah if I'd had Alonso I wouldn't have had my triple saints defence, so the swing isn't that big - just felt like it tonight when that goal went in.

Agree that all of us towards top end of what is always a strong league have had our share of luck to be up there at this stage.

I'd be curious to hear his thoughts on that too. Maybe punting on the chance of a very high overall rank? His record is excellent so he'd have been well aware of the risks.

Well that £400 league doesn't get much closer does it? Bloody hell.

Sigh. Bad timing with my wildcard cost me my place in LMS. If only I'd taken another -4 for an Arsenal defender!

Wow QFT. I made an astute decision not joining that. Didn't last year and would have won it so I'm glad I didn't fall into the trap of only playing when I do ****.

Yeah I decided against that league too - played it last season but the amount of money involved is just slightly above my comfort level for finding the sweat enjoyable rather than stressful. Guess I'm just a nit

Enjoying the sweat in the £150 though which is also very tight. Even the £35 is a little tighter now that the leader went without Sanchez.

The fact that TP is able to be last in any sort of list relating to picking players / Fantasy Football gives me a kind of strange comfort and hope for the future.

Spot on, trying to get into that top 100 thinking that my 60p lead in my cash leagues would be enough anyway. How wrong I was. Sanchez the main reason but also a Spurs triple blank against WH and Hazard Captain fail combined with Forster penalty save and a triple or double Southampton clean sheet for some of you really turned the tables. A bit unlucky I guess, but I knew the risk was there. Feels really stupid now

So I guess a lot is up to Sanchez next game against Sunderland. Hoping for a Sanchez no-show or blank. Don't like my chances

Well that was painful for anyone who thought Costa was a better pick than Kane (me).

Still tight enough at the top of all leagues that anything can happen this weekend. Should be an interesting one with plenty of decent captain options. Good luck all - has been a great battle this season whatever happens.

Every league is so close. It's going to come down to a random booking isn't it?

Captain choices and transfers now, massive headache.

Ugh I've just noticed an error in the payouts for the £400 league. I've inexplicably added £200 to the prize pool. I'm going to adjust it now, sorry about that!

Payouts link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...JjRc1GKA7C1x64

I'll start paying out people on Monday as long as there's more than 3 points in it. Not having another repeat of the season an assist got chalked off after I'd paid out! Winners can send their details for bank xfer or PayPal any time from now.

Looks like Los Goleadores wins the £35 by tiebreaker (least amount of season xfers)

Which is stunning because it came down to 1 bonus point on the bonus points system (Pedro 35/fabregas 34) So basically had Fabregas not commited that late little foul then J Stones wins. Margins!

Unbelievable Jeff is the expression!
