November teams start well....

Well I have to say i'm pretty pleased with the start my 3 imaginary teams have made to the November Manager of the Month competition.

All 3 of my "blocks" kept a clean sheet and my main striker bagged a couple of goals.

Here are the teams I selected in the November preview:

Team 1: Reina, Finnan, Carragher, Hyypia, Riise, Young, Carsley, Barry, Agbonlahor, Kuyt, Drogba.

59 points which would have put me 55th.

Team 2: Sorensen, Hughes, Ridgewell, Mellberg, P Neville, Gerrard, Lampard, Barry, Agbonlahor, Kuyt, Drogba.

46 points which would have put me 686th. Ridgewell didn't play which was a blow. He's not injured so hopefully he'll be back for the next match.

Team 3: Van der Sar, G Neville, Vidic, R Ferdinand, Heinze, Young, Scholes, Valencia, Agbonlahor, Kuyt, Rooney.

58 points which would have put me 69th. Going with Heinze rather than Evra coud hurt this team.

Not bad out of over 63,000 teams although the leader already has 78 points so i am playing catch-up.

Cheers,

Nobody seems to be commenting on here, so I thought I'd be the first!

Not bad advice that Tom - I'm in the same boat regarding Heinze v Evra, and also had Kanu on the bench, but still managed a 59. Happy with that, although it's one of my free 'manage a mini league' teams, so I'll have to pay for transfers. BOO!

Has there been a slight points re-jig? I noticed that a couple of people had moved up my mini league since I distributed it on Monday, so maybe you've decided on a KC for somebody? I've asked the question on FISO too.

No points re-jig on Tuesday. Could be that you checked the tables before they were fully updated and sorted on Monday.
