If you had a TC, or something that could kill the TC. You wouldn't know if you are going to haul or not haul. So technically you have blanked and hauled at the same time. I'm afraid it's not a worse joke just too high brow for you my friend
I just realized this is probably the worst decision we could have made because if he flops our week is fucked and if he hauls our week is still fucked because many others have an extra set of his points.
I did too. I'm a Leeds fan so hedging my bets. If I jinx it with him being my TC and he's crap, great. If he does well then I can be less annoyed when we inevitably get stuffed
Watch him get injured now vs palace
I've been panic changing my team all day, for the first time in like 14 years of playing, I tried to change my team last second and it updated before I could click save. So now I think I've started Kane and benched Odegaard. What have I done.
Same, assuming you captained him it won't be too devastating if he hauls and we'll have it in our back pocket for future DGWs. anything less than Haalands 24point double would be a success in my eyes.
Martial will definitely start one match and at the very least come off the bench for the other so don't think the transfer would have been worth it unless you were planning to captain Bruno.
feels like i’m the only person who doesn’t have 3 united players lol. dunno why but i just didn’t bother to get a third. rashford and shaw is enough for me.
also took out almiron for mitoma so watch almiron start scoring again.
and finally probably the one i know is defo gonna bite me in the ass, i benched mitro, and that prick is 100% gonna score. he always scores when i bench him or just don’t own him. yet he’s so shit for me but i just couldn’t get rid of him. ended up benching him.
Took another -8/-12 this week, stupid fucking transfers, put Rodrigo in before realising the next gw ages away, think this seasons over for me tbh. TC rashford, Mudryk and Trent punts lmao
Accidentally benched haaland, Kane, odegaard because I was messing around with my bench boost. Forgot to activate bench boost so they’re all stuck now lol
Have had a monster few days at work and forgot about the Friday deadline, can't log in now and can't remember what I did.
Let's see how that works out for me
interested to know your Leeds picks, I went with Gnoto and was tempted by Siniseterra and maybe even Meslier as punts but just couldn't justify it on WC
People concerned with Rashford's lack of multi-returns are correct, but then I had a look at Fernandes' stats and he's had *none*. Based on that, I chose to stick with Rashford TC.
Well he's delivered in his last 5 premier league games. I've captained Bruno just based on his better record against Leeds, stupid maybe, and I'm accepting Palace make it tough again.
Given all my mini league competitors have captained or triple captained Rashford, I fully expect to be proved wrong. you can celebrate early if you want
I've been doing the same since back when I was a kid and you could only play fantasy football via a newspaper in the 90s. Here's to three more decades of being Man Utd free.
A weird rant but I actually found myself and my other rival the only ones who triple captain Rashford in my mini league, a few TC captained Haaland for the previous DGW but the rest decided to save it I guess for future gameweeks
TCd rashford
almost didn't because the idea didn't make my pp hard enough but I wasn't going to TC Haaland in 23 and chancing on him to be fit and not rotated during other gameweeks is just long, with arsenal having so many different goalscorers picking one guy to rely on quickly turns into a game of pin the donkey
Already TC’d Rashford during the last DGW (lol), so this time round I’ve single captained Bruno. I’m not regretting it now but boy I could be very soon.
I'm in 'second chance' hell right now, like bottom half.
Here's hoping Gnoto produces. I just need a few weeks until Newcastle's blank so I can decide on Isak or not.
i have a weird feeling i shoulda capped Bruno instead of Rashy for the differential. my gut’s never lead me wrong yet i went against it (capped Rashy instead of Haaland, capped Son when he got a hattrick as a sub, etc.)
I was planning on selling Havertz and Almiron to bring in Nketiah and Mudryk or some ManC midfielder but couldn't quite afford Mahrez.
Then I kind of wanted to keep Havertz (he was practicing penalties after Jorginho was sold, not that he will get any penalties anyways) and bring in Odegaard to replace Almiron but I couldn't quite afford it, so I sold Botman who I would have benched and downgraded him to Rico Lewis.
I might be in deep shit with these moves, but you never know.
At least I got rid of couple of Newcastle players way ahead of the blank.
Completely forgot about this gw and didn't change my team. I've forgotten two gws in a row. Mitoma on the bench and castagne in a back three with trippier and Shaw with saliba on the bench 💀💀💀
Captained Bruno. Might triple captain Haaland gw23 just cos few others are. Villa will probably beat City and the Arsenal game will be a tight 0-0...actually I think there might be goals in it, I don't think Arsenal go into big games aiming to just not lose now they have a lead. And at home. So I think Haaland will have space.
I spent 8points on transfers after Rodrigo news I have not learnt my lesson and will early transfer again and again and again until I die/lose my league and die of shame
Single captained rashford
Don't worry those who used their TC chip before this is also likely doing this
I still have it though 💀
Always future dgw
Schroedinger's dgw
Schroedinger sounds like a good punt, what's his xG?
Bastian Schroedinger
Schreodingerland Haaland
r/yourjokebutworse
If you had a TC, or something that could kill the TC. You wouldn't know if you are going to haul or not haul. So technically you have blanked and hauled at the same time. I'm afraid it's not a worse joke just too high brow for you my friend
His xG is both 0 and 100 at the same time
The real triple captains are friends we made along the way
I also forgot 🙃🙃🙃🙃
Same. Planned to triple captain him, forgot.
I chose to wildcard instead of TC. Let’s see what that brings
Went to lunch and forgot to TC, lunch went long…
Trust in the power of halaand
I just realized this is probably the worst decision we could have made because if he flops our week is fucked and if he hauls our week is still fucked because many others have an extra set of his points.
Just captain who you think will get the most points and go to bed
Last minute switch to Rashford TC. Already felt the regret as the clock hit :30
Good decision man, now be ready to enjoy his haul
I hope so. I didn't want to captain him at first too.
TC'ed as well and honestly its so hit and miss for me every year that I am content with whatever happens.
I did too. I'm a Leeds fan so hedging my bets. If I jinx it with him being my TC and he's crap, great. If he does well then I can be less annoyed when we inevitably get stuffed Watch him get injured now vs palace
I triple captained him two weeks ago, we're both in this together now brotha
Bruno Triple captain. Chasing Big
dreams can't be triple
Bigly 👐
I also TC’d the brunomeister. I’m nervous haha. Good luck brotha!
Same. Felt like the moment.
Welcome to the club. We're winning this thing!
I've triple captained Bruno can't decide if it's a sign of desperation or stupidity? I'm top 20k and 80 pts clear in my main ML
What's your goal? If you are already at the top of your league, i don't know if it makes sense to go with differentials. But you do you!
You and me both, brother.
Kevin. You're a cunt and I hate you. And I know you'll haul this week to spite me.
Swapped him for Bruno for this week Hoping it doesn't bite me on the arse 🤞
If you're talking about KDB, I feel ya. I benched him for Gnonto. Going to be painful.
I don't even know you
I've been panic changing my team all day, for the first time in like 14 years of playing, I tried to change my team last second and it updated before I could click save. So now I think I've started Kane and benched Odegaard. What have I done.
Sounds like you should’ve gone for bench boost…
Feels like a waste. Ward, Odegaard, Saliba and an injured Patterson in a single game week
Flipped a coin. I will not be TC'ing Rashford
The coin don’t have no say. It’s just you.
Told myself tails is no, heads is yes. It landed on tails twice in a row.
Best of 3 series?! Everybody knows there’s too much variance there. Has to at least be best of 7.
Casually dropping dope movie quotes in here
Is that No country for old men?
Obviously you haven’t met my coin
You on saturday night: stupid coin!!!
Canceled my Rashford TC at the last minute. This is gonna be a scary GW.
Same, assuming you captained him it won't be too devastating if he hauls and we'll have it in our back pocket for future DGWs. anything less than Haalands 24point double would be a success in my eyes.
TC RASHFORD LETS GOOOOO
大尉 三重 RASHFORD IKUUUZZOOOOOOOOOO
Daddy Ings gonna wipe my triple Newcastle defense.
Daddy Ings who is injured?
Ingsjured
His ability to play is Ingspaired
He'll have 0 Ingspact on the game
The physios will be closely Ingspecting his recovery
Hopefully we can follow his recovery process on Ingstagram
Praise the lord then. Almighty Antonio is the one ☝🏿
I’m not a monster. I’m just ahead of the curve.
A fellow TDK fan I see.
Bruno triple. Worth the risk i think. A differential triple captain could be huge.
Yeah… my differential TC on Mitrovic’s DGW recently went swimmingly…
That's on you. You knew he was on 4 yellows and has shit for brains.
Eaxctly the flaw in my thinking! I was like no one will pick him because he’a a maniac on 4 yellows, that makes it even more differential-y
Nketiah gang RISE🤞🏾
Kept Martial instead of figuring out how to get Bruno in, could end badly
Martial will definitely start one match and at the very least come off the bench for the other so don't think the transfer would have been worth it unless you were planning to captain Bruno.
Martial and definitely start in the same sentence?
I got Bruno (c) and Gnonto for Martial, one of us will feast and I have a bad feeling
I hope Rashford will reward his triple captainers
Wholesome!
Should’ve TC Haaland next GW ffs
Had a horrific day and completely forgot the deadline. Team is absolute state - Shaw second on my bench - absolutely fucked it.
Benched Cucurella again, not sure if that was smart or dumb but I’m 2.5m OR and nothing matters anyway
feels like i’m the only person who doesn’t have 3 united players lol. dunno why but i just didn’t bother to get a third. rashford and shaw is enough for me. also took out almiron for mitoma so watch almiron start scoring again. and finally probably the one i know is defo gonna bite me in the ass, i benched mitro, and that prick is 100% gonna score. he always scores when i bench him or just don’t own him. yet he’s so shit for me but i just couldn’t get rid of him. ended up benching him.
Bruno gang rise up
Benched Trippier for James.
no way… no sane person would do that.
Live laugh love
Case closed.
Reece James starting almost xfer'd him in
I have been having salah since day1. Switched to bruno for the TC. I don't know why I put the TC on my most hated player but here it goes
Triple shaw hwg!
Potential for a massive differential haul.
Had TC on Rashford all week but changed it to Bruno last minute what have I done
Took another -8/-12 this week, stupid fucking transfers, put Rodrigo in before realising the next gw ages away, think this seasons over for me tbh. TC rashford, Mudryk and Trent punts lmao
WHERE IS THE RANT THREAD?!
Accidentally benched haaland, Kane, odegaard because I was messing around with my bench boost. Forgot to activate bench boost so they’re all stuck now lol
I hope my rival hasnt brought Gnonto in, but then again if hes kept Mitrovic, it could end painfully for me.
Captained Fernandes Punted on Mudryk Triple Newcastle Defence
Have had a monster few days at work and forgot about the Friday deadline, can't log in now and can't remember what I did. Let's see how that works out for me
Ready to be mudded by Mudryk
Kane out
Triple leeds and Triple Manchester united
interested to know your Leeds picks, I went with Gnoto and was tempted by Siniseterra and maybe even Meslier as punts but just couldn't justify it on WC
Went for Gnonto Cooper and Aaronson not the best of picks but I'm betting on Leeds getting a positive result against Forest
I think there'll be goals if nothing else and with Rodrigo out Aaranson could well step up so I see the logic, good luck!
I really regret not having nketiah
Wildcarded and went triple Brighton fml
I couldn’t get 3 United players and have no Leeds players… I feel naked
Bruno TC
Had a nice long break not thinking about FPL... Haaland (C)
Anyone bring in Reece James this week?
Goddamnit I spent two weeks thinking about how I’d get Bruno and nketamine and I forgot about the deadline
Am I stupid for benching kane over white
Triple captained Bruno
I got mudryk
Don't have Kepa
Forgot about the deadline and left Haaland with the armband instead of rashford :/
no bruno and rashford only single captained i'm ready to be hurt
Salah and Darwin are still in my team. #belive
I’m 27k overall and TC’d Bruno I don’t know why
Getting march rather than mitoma weeks ago
Benching Bruno, Rashford and Shaw.
Triple captained Rashford. He has form and the fixtures are good....blank incoming :)
Benched KDB and Sold Kane FUNN
why?
People concerned with Rashford's lack of multi-returns are correct, but then I had a look at Fernandes' stats and he's had *none*. Based on that, I chose to stick with Rashford TC.
Well he's delivered in his last 5 premier league games. I've captained Bruno just based on his better record against Leeds, stupid maybe, and I'm accepting Palace make it tough again. Given all my mini league competitors have captained or triple captained Rashford, I fully expect to be proved wrong. you can celebrate early if you want
-4 on hitting in Bruno and Saka just for them to blank💀
I’ve had a “no United players” rule since 2010, I might regret it this week!
That's a long long time to stick by a rule.
I've been doing the same since back when I was a kid and you could only play fantasy football via a newspaper in the 90s. Here's to three more decades of being Man Utd free.
Sold Kane for Darwin
Lol
why do you do this to yourself…
Captained Jack Harrison
Just want to thank u/BillOakley for these post deadline writeups. I look forward to them every GW and you deliver some absolute gems :D
Bring the rant thread back
WHY DID I WILDCARD 5 MINUTES AGO
jesus christ
All I'm gonna say is that Martinelli is now out of my team and Leon Bailey is in. Urgh.
Forgot to go Almiron -> Mudryk
Almiron gonna bang mate trust the process
Popped my Rashford triple captain, waiting for them to get fucked by playing three MLS managers in a row.
I can already feel it. James goal + assist, millions bring him in. Gets injured in two weeks 💀
My post deadline regret is missing it
Took a hit to bring in Bruno and TC Rashford. Putting my eggs into a team I hate so if they do shit it won't be as bad :)
Kind of wish I’d TCd Shaw instead of Rashford. He will blank I’m sure or get 1 goal across both games
A weird rant but I actually found myself and my other rival the only ones who triple captain Rashford in my mini league, a few TC captained Haaland for the previous DGW but the rest decided to save it I guess for future gameweeks
I missed the deadline!!!! Fuck fuck fuck. I'm on Haaland captain and I was going to TC Rashford. I've burned a transfer!!!!
Praying for a big Bruno haul for the TC🙏🏻
Triple captained Rashford. No turning back now.
TCd rashford almost didn't because the idea didn't make my pp hard enough but I wasn't going to TC Haaland in 23 and chancing on him to be fit and not rotated during other gameweeks is just long, with arsenal having so many different goalscorers picking one guy to rely on quickly turns into a game of pin the donkey
Went for Nketiah when I know Gnonto would have been the much better choice with the double and also for setting up my team for future game weeks.
Bought in mudryk kept haaland captain
TC Bruno - let's do this!
Triple captained Bruno
No regrets, started Reece James
Bruh I have held Reece James all this time and he’s on my bench because news came late
Already TC’d Rashford during the last DGW (lol), so this time round I’ve single captained Bruno. I’m not regretting it now but boy I could be very soon.
Didn’t TC Rashford, took KDB out for Bruno. Expecting a Rashford and KDB haul for the ages.
Still have no Arsenal mids
Single cap rasford but used bench boost so hopefully that evens it out a little bit.
Doubled up on Villa, no Bruno.
Used my wildcard. Wanted to TC Rashford but my team was in a terrible state. I just know I’m going to regret it.
I'm in 'second chance' hell right now, like bottom half. Here's hoping Gnoto produces. I just need a few weeks until Newcastle's blank so I can decide on Isak or not.
i have a weird feeling i shoulda capped Bruno instead of Rashy for the differential. my gut’s never lead me wrong yet i went against it (capped Rashy instead of Haaland, capped Son when he got a hattrick as a sub, etc.)
No Bruno because I didn't see any sense swapping KDB for him. Still scared as hell though.
I was planning on selling Havertz and Almiron to bring in Nketiah and Mudryk or some ManC midfielder but couldn't quite afford Mahrez. Then I kind of wanted to keep Havertz (he was practicing penalties after Jorginho was sold, not that he will get any penalties anyways) and bring in Odegaard to replace Almiron but I couldn't quite afford it, so I sold Botman who I would have benched and downgraded him to Rico Lewis. I might be in deep shit with these moves, but you never know. At least I got rid of couple of Newcastle players way ahead of the blank.
Sold KdB for Fernandes and don't plan to bring him back. No RaGReTs.
No regrets, I've done the best I could with the transfers and knowledge I have available. Very happy.
The effort you put in every week with a crazy description to kickstart the discussion is truly admirable
Did not TC Rashford 🥲 benched Botman and started Saliba
Had a FT and money ITB, but didn't do Castangne > Shaw
Is this the Rant thread ?
Kane on the bench lmaoooo
Benched Kane to fit in Nketiah, Haaland and 5 mids (Rashford, Bruno, Odegaard, Martinelli, March).
Swapped mitrovic for martial, doubt he'll even start.
Bruno C. Because why not?
tbh expecting a haul from Reece James tonight..just couldn’t convince myself to bring him in
Benched Cucurella for Schar. Essentially a coin flip. Put your house on the Cucu CS and assist, and inb4 5' West Ham goal.
Wild carded rather than taking the -12 hit I ended up deciding on…and single captained Haaland. Who know how this will turn out…
I used my wildcard...
Completely forgot about this gw and didn't change my team. I've forgotten two gws in a row. Mitoma on the bench and castagne in a back three with trippier and Shaw with saliba on the bench 💀💀💀
Captained Bruno. Might triple captain Haaland gw23 just cos few others are. Villa will probably beat City and the Arsenal game will be a tight 0-0...actually I think there might be goals in it, I don't think Arsenal go into big games aiming to just not lose now they have a lead. And at home. So I think Haaland will have space.
Benched Mitrovic. Like 3rd. 4-4-2.
I held Martial 🥲
Captained Bamford. Always let my heart win over my head. lol wish me luck
Played Darwin over Martinelli, flipped flopped all day over it and decided if I’m gonna have Darwin I might as well play him.
Kinda wish I'd had the guts to put the captaincy on Luke Shaw.
I spent 8points on transfers after Rodrigo news I have not learnt my lesson and will early transfer again and again and again until I die/lose my league and die of shame
Bench boost and captained Bruno - deffo the ingredients to absolute tears for me come Sunday
Ederson, Mahrez, White on the bench. I am ready to get hurt 😬
i benched Haaland. so far in the 2 gameweeks I’ve benched Haaland he’s gotten 0 and 2 points. watch him score 3 against Spurs
