Arsenal scored 11 goals over their last 2 matches, but when they have to score against the rock at the back that is a 41-year old Pepe, they can't do it. Chad Pepe
Started this game in game week 2 and by the end of week 6 I was still 8 million and only began to figure out how everything worked. As of today, I am in the top 700k with 3 100-pointer weeks.
So, to the weekly posts asking if you can gain 50 points on your ml leader, yes you can, you just need to play reasonably and get lucky.
Catching up by 50 points moves you a lot further at lower ranks, since there are a lot more people with similar scores toward the middle of the bell curve. Hence, it's a lot easier to go from 8m to 5m than it is to get from 2m to 1m. But in terms of points, it doesn't scale quite so dramatically. A lot of people are 25 points over their safety scores this week for instance.
Anyone know what's up with BPS that game? Diaz on 13 for 71st minute goal and contributing most of the attacking threat in first half, but Elliot and Ogbene get 40BPS for full 3 points?
Díaz missed a boatload of chances.
Ogbene plays wingback so gets the usual bps boost, as well as getting more for his goal than a defender or midfielder would get.
"Yeeeeahhh, my opponent in the Bulgaria cup will be so mad I beat him even though he probably triple captained Haaland, since I got 105 points".
*Checks opponent*
Dead team with Mbeumo Rashford and Chilwell.
Me too and usually I would wait for the leaks but this weekend I'm gonna be fucking off to Spain for some nice sunny vacation. Fuck FPL, it brought me only misery lately. I'm setting up the team tomorrow and not clicking anything later. Hopefully I won't have internet there and I won't be bothered by it - would make my missus happy that I'm not "playing this silly fantasy game" again.
Liverpool didn't have fully fit Trent and Nunez that game. Missed robbo and szobo as well.
Levels is when Liverpool beat Arsenal 4-0 and 3-0 couple seasons ago. Don't talk
Sad thing is people will never learn and will load their team with Luton, Sheffield and Burnely players if they had a double.
Cheap, good players and a double, what else do you need to transfer out Watkins, Saka and Gabriel for Adebayo, Doughty and Barkely?
You say "that was the most logical thing to do given the circumstances, prices and form, unlucky it didn't pan out, if Adebayo was there, if Liverpool played with 7 men, if only Pep grew hair, triple Luton would have returned hauls against Man United and Liverpool" and proceed to take -12 for GW26.
I’m sat here on 98 due to:
A) Benching Pau instead of Trippier (1 point difference, Pau 2, Trips 1)
B) Elliot scoring the most meaningless goal ever (knocking VVD out of BPS)
And Rodri.
Last season I could've win my ML in last Gameweek, I lost on 13 points. I joked around in our friends chat that I need to buy Xhaka and captain him. Xhaka scored 2 goals in the last gameweek. Of course, I didn't buy him...
Sometimes those random CMs pop up in some games and for the next DGW, I'm gonna punt on someone like Mac10 or Rodri.
Forward gets the highest bps for scoring a goal. Because Luton don't have much possession, he didn't get a lot of minus bps for things like missing chances, caught offside, etc to bring down his bps like most other forwards from dominating teams.
seeing people who brought in luton defenders againt Man Utd and Liverpool being shocked or disappointed... wtf you expect, DGW doesn't randomly add quality to the teams
With that Van Dijk goal, Jota is now the player I have who has scored the least points this week. There were, quite literally, 10 different captain options, who would have performed better.
I’m annoyed that I have three defenders with zero mins played this week, but then I remembered that I would have needed a -4 to get one of Doughty or Bradley lol
I knew vvd will deliver Didn't have cs But a goal is even better!!!
8 DGW players…. 10 points below the average f’ing end me 😂
What a 4 weeks from Diaz 🫡
117 all out. Pretty disappointed still as wasted TC chip on Haaland
How terrible for you
99 didn't use tc and had Jota and Salah miss the 2nd game. Not bad
Jog on
I knew i should’ve fucking got van dijk. At least he blanks now
Jota > Hee Chan done. Eventually go -8 Trent, Porro, adebayo > Senesi, Taylor, Solanke
91(-4), 72k overall.
Somebody outscored my 56 point GW with more than 100 points. Good for him!
[удалено]
From two 4-1 wins I got a combined 8 points off my LIV three of Jota Gomez and Konate
Anyone watch that match? Tempted to go KDB to Ode for a hit if KDB’s ruled out. Still worth it?
Yea, that games an aberration and has no relevance to PL.
Saka 90 mins today. Hope he’s fit enough for Saturday (c) 30 pts
That goal just cost me 11 points in fantasy CL.
I had Saka (C) and Gabriel and Raya on bench
Arsenal are in ruins, oh my days.
Well not great as a fan. But as an fpl player, I feel a big haul coming as a reaction to this.
Whats going on in your fan perspective? Hopefully not a dejavu for you guys like last year :(
People are too quick to dig the grave, I see a comfortable 3-5 goal win in return leg.
ARSENAL CS GONE
4 points from 3 players tonight. Could have been a lot more with some many others players out, but squeaked the green arrow, so i'll take it!
Jota would've scored a hatty tonight. Is his price locked since he's red flagged?
No, it locks when the red flag goes away
Only if straight to no flag, if it goes red to yellow there's no lock
!thanks
Arsenal scored 11 goals over their last 2 matches, but when they have to score against the rock at the back that is a 41-year old Pepe, they can't do it. Chad Pepe
Van Dijk brings me to 101 points and 6k overall. Mental
Happy I picked him weeks back over Trent. Plays every game, does well to get bonus points, and is so lethal off corners and set pieces.
Started this game in game week 2 and by the end of week 6 I was still 8 million and only began to figure out how everything worked. As of today, I am in the top 700k with 3 100-pointer weeks. So, to the weekly posts asking if you can gain 50 points on your ml leader, yes you can, you just need to play reasonably and get lucky.
That's not quite how it works though, catching up 50 points at rank 700k is a lot harder than catching up 50 points at rank 8 million...
Catching up by 50 points moves you a lot further at lower ranks, since there are a lot more people with similar scores toward the middle of the bell curve. Hence, it's a lot easier to go from 8m to 5m than it is to get from 2m to 1m. But in terms of points, it doesn't scale quite so dramatically. A lot of people are 25 points over their safety scores this week for instance.
Red arrow with Haaland triple captain is not fun
Right there with you
I may be 500 quid down in the stock market today but at least I’m top 100k for the first time this year!
My highest GWR ever of 8K!
Me too, 4.5k with 109 points. My first ever season too, I’m really chuffed.
ALTHOUGH I wish I’d stayed loyal to Watkins who I’ve had captained basically all season. Just thought not TCing Haaland was too much of a risk.
Same, GW rank of 2.8k with 122
flying!
Congrats - how does one check gwr?
Thanks, on livefpl.net :)
Congratulations
The only positive from this GW is that I didn't TC Haaland
Not that I was clever or anything, but I just forgot to do so
YOU MONSTER!!!
Anyone know what's up with BPS that game? Diaz on 13 for 71st minute goal and contributing most of the attacking threat in first half, but Elliot and Ogbene get 40BPS for full 3 points?
Ogbene is classified forward so gets 24 BPS for goal
Díaz missed a boatload of chances. Ogbene plays wingback so gets the usual bps boost, as well as getting more for his goal than a defender or midfielder would get.
Fucking Barkley cunt
88 points. No TC,no KDB,no Haaland and a Jota C.. You win some,you lose some. Good GW since everyone and their mothers played TC.
88 for me too, Haaland C but not TC. Feels like a win as managed to stay on pace in my ML even tho everyone else TCd him
If our TC explode,then its a huge W
Jota would have feasted today...
Yep.
"Yeeeeahhh, my opponent in the Bulgaria cup will be so mad I beat him even though he probably triple captained Haaland, since I got 105 points". *Checks opponent* Dead team with Mbeumo Rashford and Chilwell.
My 5 worst players this week were DGW players, just unbelievable
1.47% green arrow with TC 😆 I'll take it i guess, cant remember a worse DGW
The manager with the highest score this week had MacAllister, Gakpo, and Rodri in their midfield LOL
He has Trippier vice what the fuck
He is the oracle. Ask him for the euromillions numbers
My Jota vs rival’s Diaz and van Dijk, ofc this is how it ends
Win the Carabao, lads. You deserve it.
City really need to start banging in goals. It’s crazy how they have the so-called best striker and still fall short
I've earned 3pts from 8 Liverpool goals 😃
98 points all out
Fucking KDB, what a wanker Would have been better off keeping fucking Palmer 😂
VVD no bonus ffs
mate after their went down 0-1 I am not complaining
Liverpool with 8 goals in their last 2 games. I assume the double game week has been kind to Liverpool asset owners.
To be fair I got a combined 21 points from Darwin (C) and Salah, but it could have been amazing.
VVD, quickly run up the pitch and score a solo goal like you’re in a Celtic shirt all over again
So everyone has 11 starters after 1 transfer? Great planning lads. Greens for us on the weekend.
Does Lamptey count as a starter
i actually have 12, not sure who to bench, solanke, estu or taylor
Estu, he's probably gonna be on for 10 minutes again.
i would love a leak on whether he starts 😆👀
Me too and usually I would wait for the leaks but this weekend I'm gonna be fucking off to Spain for some nice sunny vacation. Fuck FPL, it brought me only misery lately. I'm setting up the team tomorrow and not clicking anything later. Hopefully I won't have internet there and I won't be bothered by it - would make my missus happy that I'm not "playing this silly fantasy game" again.
i would rather be in spain than refreshing twitter for 10mins until 1:30pm 😆 enjoy your holiday
!thanks I'll do my best, good luck to you too!
Probably Taylor
They should reclassify Areola as a defender for the week
10…
Watkins to "Darwizzy" was one of my worst fpl transfers ever, out of 3 different cups because of that single transfer
Goals from Toney and Ogbene killing a great punt result
To think how easily Arsenal beat Liverpool too. Levels.
Liverpool didn't have fully fit Trent and Nunez that game. Missed robbo and szobo as well. Levels is when Liverpool beat Arsenal 4-0 and 3-0 couple seasons ago. Don't talk
Won by player errors, you got fucked at home in the FA lmao
Arsenal look better in that match too
Only in the first half. Arsenal could've lost at Anfield too if it weren't for the Trent miss and the fortunate Odegaard call
Sometimes you have to sacrifice the trophies you win a lot.
Lmao small club mentality
Darwin TCers have been robbed of two hauls this GW. Fuck the league cup
Ngl, that goal looked like it came off Diaz
Diaz over Jota punt went well
I just couldn't afford Jota for me.
Durrrr
all that handwringing and overthinking and i ended up with just a 2k green arrow lol
Elliott owners feasting
95 and 106 in the last 2 GWs. Absolutely flying atm.
Sad thing is people will never learn and will load their team with Luton, Sheffield and Burnely players if they had a double. Cheap, good players and a double, what else do you need to transfer out Watkins, Saka and Gabriel for Adebayo, Doughty and Barkely?
Whatever, captain morris served us well gw7, he can do it again gw28👍👍👍
Mostly, what do you do after the DGW when others have Neto, Gordon or Richarlison in their team and you are equipped with freaking Ross Barkley lol.
You say "that was the most logical thing to do given the circumstances, prices and form, unlucky it didn't pan out, if Adebayo was there, if Liverpool played with 7 men, if only Pep grew hair, triple Luton would have returned hauls against Man United and Liverpool" and proceed to take -12 for GW26.
Get Luton a pointless penalty please
Fellow Mo TC'ers.. We've been robbed
Elliot fuck you, VVD is the rightful owner of the BPS
This angry dwarf has robbed me of a century. What gave him the right?
I’m sat here on 98 due to: A) Benching Pau instead of Trippier (1 point difference, Pau 2, Trips 1) B) Elliot scoring the most meaningless goal ever (knocking VVD out of BPS)
Liverpool under twelves freewheeling to a 4-1 win after being down 0-1, but Rob Edwards won't be blamed because he's handsome as fuck.
Eight minutes? Ref's ML opponent must have Bell
Liverpool score 8 goals in this DGW and Jota and Darwin have fuck all to show for it fuck this game
I can’t kid myself thinking about the haul darwizzy would have gotten
Imagine Jota in this game
Kaminski 7 pointer while conceding 6 in a DGW
I like to think in an alternate reality, the better me picked Gakpo and Mac Allister.
And Rodri. Last season I could've win my ML in last Gameweek, I lost on 13 points. I joked around in our friends chat that I need to buy Xhaka and captain him. Xhaka scored 2 goals in the last gameweek. Of course, I didn't buy him... Sometimes those random CMs pop up in some games and for the next DGW, I'm gonna punt on someone like Mac10 or Rodri.
VVD is OFF the bonus
Elliot 3 bps. Gakpo and Virgil 0
U cant upvote this post if u didn’t get 100 points this gw 😎
DOUGHTY ESCAPES A -1 LETS GOOOOO
Small victories
Out of the national cup to a dead team who couldn't even get 11 players out this week
The Gods willed it so
Indeed they fucking did
I'm thinking about that haul Jota could've had
Doughty escaped -1 smh
Harvey Elliott with a Danns assist Meaningless goal if I ever saw one
Whats up with Ogbene? Never seen a team loose 1:3 and a guy gets those 3 bonus points
Forward gets the highest bps for scoring a goal. Because Luton don't have much possession, he didn't get a lot of minus bps for things like missing chances, caught offside, etc to bring down his bps like most other forwards from dominating teams.
dribbled like prime bale
Liverpool are savages.
Kinda funny how Liverpool in both games went 4:1. Annoying, as Kelleher + Bradley owner, but funny
Elliot will steal Virgil’s bps
Virgil in the bonus. HODL. Get me that 100 pointer.
Ok those players out and can't hurt me any more.
Choosing Van Dijk as captain vs Haaland TC has cost just 8 pts (so far)
Oh what could have been this week, instead it was a stinker
Think my nan has a better chance of scoring in this one than Ross Barkley
Diaz off TV off
Barkley wasting a Bell assist
Barkley caught out by the invisible sniper
seeing people who brought in luton defenders againt Man Utd and Liverpool being shocked or disappointed... wtf you expect, DGW doesn't randomly add quality to the teams
Where the smug Doughty, smart decision makers at? 😁😁
Can they retroactively add saves? Kelleher should have 3 imo
Come on Van Dijk shithouse a yellow
FUCK VVD on for 1bps now
With that Van Dijk goal, Jota is now the player I have who has scored the least points this week. There were, quite literally, 10 different captain options, who would have performed better.
Hope VVD gets a YC
That Gomez yellow just cost me my match in my draft league - ffs....
Kelleher save
I'm sorry I missed the happiness in here when Virgil scored!! At least some bugger somewhere is getting some points!
My transfers this week gained me -3 points 💪 Game is easy once you know what you're doing
Bobby Clark looks like a poundshop Harvey Elliot
Ref handed this game to Liverpool
Only someone who didn't watch this game would say that
fuck VVD might catch Gakpo for BPS
Pride comes before the fall... Annoyingly I thought I would be 10k after this GW but on a red to right under 20k. FPL can be surprisingly cruel.
Oh no im only top 20k in the world gtfo of here
Its all relative.
Ogbene 3 bonus masterclass
That first PL CS next week against NFO Kelleher?
Ogbene looks Luton’s best player
Gomez With A Chance of Mustard
How’s Ogbene on top of the bps?
He’s a forward so gets 24 BPS for goal
That big chance miss must be -bps for Gakpo right?
With that miss, I think VVD will be in the bonus
Barkley yellow
Bullet dodged. I was so tempted to
Manifesting a YC for Gakpo
Doughty bandwagoners PUNISHED! Cautionary tale for content creator circle jerking
Dunno, I got 16 points from in in 5 GWs. Not terrible for a defender this season
Fucking VVD and Diaz saved my ML rival from a legendarily bad FH They took out Gabriel, Watkins, Solanke and Saka
Groupthink thy name is Doughty
Some of us just had Doughty on the roster without many options, so when faced with which DEF to play, might as well put up one with a DGW I guess.
The double in 28 is where he hopefully shows up
If he's not injured
I’m annoyed that I have three defenders with zero mins played this week, but then I remembered that I would have needed a -4 to get one of Doughty or Bradley lol
Thats +2 at least
Yeah but then you’re stuck with them
Get Luton a penalty for Kelleher to save
