It wasn't a great week for anyone last time around.
The JOE readers managed to build their lead despite putting up just 5 points from Gerard Deulofeu, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Divock Origi.
We have to admit, we're just embarrassed looking at our suggestions. We got too cute suggesting Shane Long, while Dejan Lovren and Ross Barkely both had down weeks.

But you can't dwell in the past, only look to the future and this week we reckon Arsenal are the ones to watch as they take on bottom of the table Aston Villa.
This week's picks
Olivier Giroud (£8.9 million)
After his Champions League hat-trick in midweek, Olivier Giroud will be brimming with confidence and we can't imagine him showing any mercy against an Aston Villa side that are at an incredibly low ebb right now.
The Frenchman is under pressure from the returning Theo Walcott to keep his place in the side, and that has spurred him to up his game in the past.
Troy Deeney (£5.2 million)
Having gone without scoring in the first nine games of the season, Deeney can’t stop banging them in now, with five goals in his last six outings.
He's also registered an assist in each of the last two games and is hoovering up bonus points. The result that his total for the last four matches is an impressive 36 points.
Romelu Lukaku (£9.1 million)
Forget Jamie Vardy, Romelu Lukaku is
the form player in the Premier League. The Everton striker has six goals, two assists and 48 points in his last six games and will be up against a Norwich defence that are conceding an average of just under two goals per game this season.
Yes he's pricey, but you're just going to fall further behind everyone else if you don't pick him up now.
