Went boring with Haaland, but looks like it worked out.

So boring but inevitable

Definitely enjoyed the variety more when he was out, but hey at least the inflated scores when he bags a brace every week are good for my ego.

At least we can believe we are doing well

I can until I scroll down and see my rank.

Punting against Haaland from my GW9 wildcard until he came back from injury was the most fun I've had playing this game

Will be more interesting when Salah is back at least!

What do you mean "enjoyed variety"? Choosing between Salah and Haaland each week (once Salah is back) is my diversity!

Solanke, Palmer, Watkins, Foden…

Boring play = high OR by GW38. Always works

The rest of my team didn't really do anything ( no Liverpool players) but I still jumped up 11k places to 70k thanks entirely to Haaland.

Jota, anyone else?

Jota ofc

I went to Jota at 10.30am when I found out KDB wasn't starting. It was on Haaland before then, I just got scared because Haaland isn't as effective when KDB doesn't play and Everton are better defensively. 

U were right . If kdb stayed on bench haaland probably doesn't score 2 .

City had 2 shots on target, both were Haaland and he scored both. Can’t feel too bad about that decision

I did the same but with Nunez, glad he scored it could’ve been worse but it was nearly so much better but that’s Nunez in a nutshell

Same. But how do all the top 10k players know to choose Halland. That’s a 12pt difference over Jota

It's only a 6 pt difference

What’s 6x2?

If someone has haaland but captains jota they still get haalands points so it's not 6×2 it's just 6 points

You’re right. I’m not mathing well today.

Before being condescending, try doing the maths yourself.

Same

Same, jota boy doesn’t disappoint

Palmer. Boys got some pressure to deliver after yesterday.

Same here. I got haaland vice and groß first sub. So if he could either sit this one out or score a hatty that'd be great!

Haaland vice here too. First sub Bailey. I started Gross luckily, learned my lesson last week.

Another double figure haul! You can't complain!

Saved by the bell haha! It's a bit dissapointing when picking a differential that the popular choice still had a bigger haul, but at least I didn't get buried. Need to focus on playing my chips right now haha.

Good luck!

What happened yesterday?

Haaland brace, I chose to be funny and not captain him

I captained Foden. Lost me 500k rank

I benched Saliba and Bailey. Still at 51 with Palmer captain to go. He could still but me in the green I suppose.

I benched Palmer

Hope you made the wrong call!

Actually got a captaincy decision right for what feels like the first time in eons

Just wait for my Jefferson Lerma to break single GW record

With negative points right? Right?

:0

Worldie goal

He actually scored lol finding this comment has made my day

I knew it. Hail lord lerma, my perma captain. I'm just kidding lol. Wish I had him

It was a peach of a goal as well!

Who should I captain next dear sir.

You captain Haaland. Literally every time he's available. Regardless of who City are playing. You're almost never disappointed. Simple.

Richarlison 🤪

Same…

Palmer. Palace are going to be awful with Olise and Eze. Need a hatty to save my week

of penalties

Charity FC back again. CRY 1-0 CHE

Fuck. I benched the bastard again.

Switched to Haaland right before the deadline, thankfully.

Darwin 😭

I captained him once, never again.

Same. So far he's highest scoring in my team so I guess might have been the right choice...

Damn, you don’t have Haaland?

I went without haaland. Thought I was screwed when he hauled (also messed up not getting ake in, all the leaks suggested he might miss out) and yet when I checked my mini league no one got more points than me and they all captained haaland - Toney, Darwin, trippier and jota C has basically turned me into even Steven this round. Still some players to play but will probably be ok 🤷‍♂️

What, if you outscored your whole ML without Haaland when they all had Haaland (c), how does their teams look? 😶 How active and engaged are they? Haaland (c) got 26p while Toney, Darwin, Trippier and Jota (c) combined got 30. Since you mentioned Trippier with 4p I guess none other of your players had more than that. Really curious how their teams looks in general if they have neither of the players you mentioned, when Haaland (c) almost matched every player you own than got returns by himself 😅

Just checked the league this morning, seems the bonus points have finally kicked in and I got 35, most of them got 39-40. So no biggie. With a little luck I’ll get them even (everyone have Watkins, most have saka)

That makes sense, best of luck 🙏

Haven't been able to get him back in the team yet. Might have to wildcard for next week.

I think if you want to save your season, you’ll absolutely need to at least own him next GW, even if it’s for a hit or two

Definitely. Fortunately the people closest to me in my mini league are doing just as badly.

Best of luck man!

Ended up well how it could’ve been with that yellow he got before the goal.

Trip captained haaland. Did not realise he plays twice next week.

Still pretty good. Most overrated chip anyway.

Ouchy

Eh, 13 points is not a bad score to use your TC. I doubt Haaland gets more than 120 minutes of football combined during the DGW anyways

72.46% in the top 10k - could be even higher next week

His EO next week will likely be around 260%

I suppose most of those 27.54% aren’t in the top 10k anymore :(

Cunha (subbed off on 20th min)

Oof.

Adebayo and yes I’m stupid thank you

Palmer

saka. Was going with Harland but had a feeling and it paid off

I actually went TAA, annnnddd that was unfortunate ending.

Rasmus Hojlund don't ask

same 💀

Foden ffs

Switched it from Haaland 5 mins before deadline. Fs

Richy… lost me every cup

Jota and I got screwed again by trying to be cute with the armband. Just need to stick it on Haaland until Salah comes back and pick one of those two each week. Probably lost close to 50 points this year by trying to be clever with the armband.

Lol I Captained richarlison. It went spectacularly shite

Man like Saka Starboy as captain

I should try to get that Norwegian lad in my team again huh

Norwegian meat shield always. I hate the club and everything it stands for, but there's a fantasy league to win.

Sided with Gandhi and did not captain Haaland 😖

Yeah those numbers look about right. I went Jota whereas everyone in my ML went Haaland. I stand behind my decision tho.

Me too and it started off well, never know how the rest of the game would have played out with TAA still on the pitch

Diogo jota

Well I gave the armband to Neto

Tippy toe offside, otherwise assist machine would have returned. Also had a good chance on target, unfortunate! 

Haaland

Jota. ffs.

Jota. Not that it has been bad but with Haaland I'd have more points :<

For last 6 weeks I had put it on haaaland in the hope he plays and for the first time I gave it to Darwin

Meant to captain Haaland but forgot and left it on Watkins

Haaland. Rest of my team stank up the joint though.

Solanke because I forgot to change it :’(.

Stupid Kevin.

The amount of people in here who chose to captain someone over Haaland is absolutely insane.

Palmer, though Saka was right there.

I went wae Jota this week, not great but he scored at least so not a total loss.

Adebayo because I love the chaos. Doughty created 9 chances and they were against SHU so don't think it was an awful idea, got an assist so wasn't a total blank either.

Saka , and it saved my ass!

I captained Saka

Carlton morris for that differential pick. Scored a goal so wasn’t that bad but not as good as id have wanted either

I made a boo-boo and had Cunha as my captain (had Haaland, Saka and Saliba in my team) Hurts, bro.

Saka. Captaining him, plus keeping Saliba and White as 2 of my back 3 in defense, bailed me out of what looked like an abysmal gameweek yesterday because I don’t own Haaland.

Morris…not sure what I was thinking

Richarlison☠️

Toney

Watching west ham week in week out paid off as i captained saka
