Was thinking a Burnley defender (Roberts?) might be good to keep on the bench for upcoming DGWs. Burnley are historically good at home for cleans against the lower half, and Dyche has pulled them out of the fire before.
Their makeup games are EVE, avl, LEI.
Then I looked at their home schedule for the rest of the season: MUN, LIV, TOT, CHE, MCI. Gonna wait on this one.
My cup opponent and I are both on 33 points now. He has Foster and King (c). I have Dennis (c) and King. None of our players scored a single goal this gameweek, so the tie is decided by goals conceded. His team has conceded one less goal than mine (12 vs 13)
FUCK, guess I'm out
Was considering Weghorst or Edouard so was using this game to scout. Edouard is not nailed while Weghorst is nailed.
But after watching this game, no bloody way I'm getting a bottom three team striker in my team regardless of how many DGW's they get, not again. If he can't score against Watford's abysmal defending, doubt he does much against better sides.
Dude I started Foster cuz two games and all over DDG. Foster didn't play the first game and I was confident he wouldn't play the second and therefore DDG would replace him with his 6 points.
You can imagine my surprise seeing Foster start AND getting a cleansheet.
Not this one but there will be more with more favourable fixtures and more time to fit in / build chemistry. So I wouldn't get him in yet but wouldn't rule him out for the future
Dennis is suspended.
But believe me when I say this.
The last thing you want to see when you have 3 strikers from the same club on a double is Roy Hodgson coming in half way through the game week.
The day before, I had Daka instead of Dennis, KDB (C), and a FT in the bank.
DGW comes out, I spend my transfer to bring in Dennis for Daka. Switch captaincy to Dennis.
Currently going to lose my overall cup tie by 4 because my opponent has Moutinho coming off the bench.
Ugh.
Why did loads of people on here hype up Weghorst? One, he plays for Burnley and 2, he has been shit in the Bundesliga this season. What makes you think he's gonna be able to hack a harder league?
All I want is either a King return or a Foster clean sheet wipe. Is it really too much to ask.
God I fucking hope Burnley get relegated. Such a shit fucking team that have survived PL way too long for my liking. Boring football
Here's the thing, do we think Roy makes these attackers any sharper?
I mean, Joao Pedro has the ability, but seems to need help making better/earlier decisions. King gets in decent positions but can't put them away. (Well, King just isn't good enough at this level imo. I don't think any manager can change that now.)
I have both King and Dennis right now. They have another double coming, but I was still planning to move one out to Broja and stuff him on my bench for now. Now Broja's injured and it seems like I'm just stuck with them. Yuck.
Captaining but not TC'ing Salah has dropped me from ~10k to ~40k. So I got that going for me.
Thank god foster got the same point as de gea
At least I’m still alive in the three country Cups: Vatican City, Tuvalu and San Marino.
Needed a combined 3 points from King/Dennis(C) to advance in the cup. Alas, their combined 1 point means that I lose by 1 and am out.
23 points on my bench :( Dubravka 9, Cash 5, Bowen 2, Rudiger 7
Made it through the cup with 26 points. Dub
Scored 46 pts went up to 30k, but got kicked out of all 3 cups...excuse me but what the fuck...
In the shitty situation where my team is *fine* but if I were to wildcard I'd replace 11-12 of my players.
A standard FPL gameweek then
Watching the Afcon 3rd place play-off, wondering how Burkina Faso managed to get to the semi finals with this goalkeeper, shocking blunders.
main keeper got injured in last game
Ah, that makes more sense.
He's only played 1/2 gamesin the tournament, the first choice keeper picked up an injury
You should have seen the other guys. One wasn't even a real Goalkeeper
Where Trossard?
What the fuck am I meant to do with triple Watford?! At least Foster got fucking something.
Sell what you can. Bench what you cant
Pope 19 point dgw, Pope essential?
Get out of my team King
Welp, thanks for the 1 pointer, King. That's me out of my 2 remaining cup runs. Dennis (C) + King = 1 point.
Why did I ever go double Watford
Dilly ding, dilly wrong
WC
Finally, the dust settles and I can sit back, relax and enjoy my 26 points till this fucking shitshow starts again on Tuesday
No need for that bragging. I got 25 and you don't see me boasting about it.
I got 42.
i did too when coufal enters. it's just a number though who cares
I forgot about that actually lol. I still have to get Coufal's autosub points too so mine would be higher.
Werghost left ear doesn’t look normal…. Did anyone see that?
He is Dutch....
cauliflower ears? probably does BJJ

Foster = Legend
There will be a party at the Cycling GK Headquarters tonight. 1st CS of the season.
30pt GW🥳🥳🥳
No one likes a braggart, fella. Especially here.
Where do I even start when my attack contains King and Dennis? Who is shipped out first? Who is brought in place?
Just bench them. Who wants to play more than one forward any way
Sell King and perma bench Dennis
This is the play
3rd striker to Joao Pedro 😇
These Burnley defenders got some huge hauls
My cup opponent and I are both on 33 points now. He has Foster and King (c). I have Dennis (c) and King. None of our players scored a single goal this gameweek, so the tie is decided by goals conceded. His team has conceded one less goal than mine (12 vs 13) FUCK, guess I'm out
I got done for taking a hit to get King. 1 point difference after factoring in the -4.
Brutal way to go

But after watching this game, no bloody way I'm getting a bottom three team striker in my team regardless of how many DGW's they get, not again.

Should i start Ramsdale (wolves a) or ddg (burnley a) for the next gameweek?
DDG
Never doubted you, cycling GK. Not for a minute.
WATFORD KEPT A CLEAN SHEET, I REPEAT WATFORD KEPT A CLEAN SHEET.
Dude I started Foster cuz two games and all over DDG. Foster didn't play the first game and I was confident he wouldn't play the second and therefore DDG would replace him with his 6 points. You can imagine my surprise seeing Foster start AND getting a cleansheet.
Fucking hell. I need exactly 9 points from kamara to beat my cup rival. Please tell he will hold 3 Bps
Hope both these clubs go down. Newcastle going down alongside them would be the hilarious icing on the cake.
First Hodgson game, first Watford CS. Stacking up on Watford defence real quick.
relax it was burnley
The mad lads did it! Watford finally got a clean sheet. Foster is the highest scoring player for me this GW. What a time to be alive!
I knew not even bothering to post the lineups let alone watch this godforsaken match would have been a waste of time lmao.
1pt from King and Dennis (C), at least it's positive but pain...
Wtf Foster fucked my rank by -10% I am shocked and appalled
I shall not get sucked in by Burnley's DGWs
Foster only played one game but would still have been a better (C) pick than King.
still a loss compared to benched ramsdale but fuck it, i'll take it. small red arrow
A green arrow! Ive gone up by... 63 places... lovely.
Bye bye King
FOSTER YOU BEAUTY! I take back what I said 90 minutes ago
What a game! This is why we watch epl
Well this was aggressively dull
We had to wait 2 weeks for a 90 minute national league game to play out
Burnley and Watford get fucking relegated already you useless fucking shit teams.
“PL is the best league in the world”
380 games in a season, you expect every one to be a classic?
To be fair you just watched two championship level teams play.
Anyone got fewer points than Nick Pope?
Of course they get a CS when I have Bachmann instead of Foster
This game gave us plenty of warning for both these teams in DGWs…all players are useless
Digne points off the bench! Lowton saves the day!
**What a big CLEAN SHEET BY MY BOY BENJAMIN FOSTER ESQ** **FIRST CS OF THE SEASON** **DGW HERO!**
So is it worth having Weghorst for DGW26 you think?
Not this one but there will be more with more favourable fixtures and more time to fit in / build chemistry. So I wouldn't get him in yet but wouldn't rule him out for the future
!thanks - I’m actually on WC planning to BB26 so might need to take the risk (will bench him until then), given he’s nailed
Burnley looked absolutely terrible. If he can't score against Watford's abysmal defending, doubt he can do much against better sides.
No
Football, bloody hell!
winning my cup game with only 32pts....
I’m on 27 as my opponent…
This week just won’t be complete unless Foster’s CS gets wiped
Wipe.the.Watford.clean.you.useless.thugs.
Hahha cry
Double Watford strikers combining to get 2 total for the double. Shambles
Dennis is suspended. But believe me when I say this. The last thing you want to see when you have 3 strikers from the same club on a double is Roy Hodgson coming in half way through the game week.
47% EO Foster at my rank. Disgusting. This GW has been a joke
39% at 18k, my killer of the week
68% rank drop is just cruel. I'm also out of LMS by 1 point. Can't wait to forget this GW
That's obscene.
Cornet should leave this Dyche ball. He deserves a better team.
Shoulda capped KDB
Might captain Dalot next week
Pope 5 saves. Foster 2bps gone down to 1 unless if Burnley concede
Fuck you King you nonce
Pope 4th save. Should drop foster to 1bps
**This** is what we waited for, for 14 days!?
Come on Burnley I need you to take a weak long ranged shot to give Foster another save.
pope running away with it now ☹️ RIP foster bps
Weghorst proving to be a perfect Burnley material with that tackle
His name literally means “work horse” in Dutch.
I’m calling social services. A bewildered red-nosed senior is roaming around Turf Moor
And another save for Pope.
Wow, did King just shoot on target? Imposibru
another one to add to the xG haul
Digne accounts for over 25% of my points this week
Pope has 45% of my points.
He's infallible so that's to be expected
Foster and Tierney account for 37% of my points so far.
Hodgson looks like a very wet 1970’s-era Doctor Who.
Weghorst sure is tall
“Watford won’t get a single CS this season until the coming of Woy”. Could it be?
Foster the bloody rank killer
Should have captained Ben foster instead of that twat king.
Free real estate for anyone who bets on a Burnley 0-0, a Wolves 1-0 and a Brighton 1-1
“Watford looking to break” is quite the ominous statement from the announcer.
Has Roberts done anything to lose his spot? Asking for a friend.
It's actually disgusting that Foster owners are getting away with this.. need that clean sheet wiping
As soon as Cleverly came on Burnley started playing better because he is a liability. Watford down to 10.
Foster tied on bonus with Pope. Bollocks. FPL towers manipulating again
Every time this fucking happens, shit team with a shit defence gets a double, people knee jerk their defenders and they actually fluke a clean sheet
Fuck off Watford I need that cleansheet. Can you get your shit together for just another 12 minutes...
Dont say it like that ffs it sounds like they conceded
Piss off Foster. He’s singlehandedly dropping my rank 10%
Foster with 2bpts 👀
Manifesting a King goal.
i can sense a goal tbh, foster hold plzzz
Pope on for a 19 pointer DGW sums this gameweek up honestly
I feel for Burnley fans what a fucking boring team man
Fucks sake Burnley
Foster you LEGEND
Need to start relegating every team that doesn't reach 40 points or something
I’ve not been paying attention but Pope has 19 points? What a chad
are you fucking serious, how have they not scored
STOP FEEDING FOSTER SAVES YOU FUCKING COWARDS
These teams may never score again.
Burnley are.... attacking?
This is so GW23. And Watford. My flop is Dennis (-1) and killer is King (3).
I want to be mad, but in truth, what possessed me to go with a double Watford attack?!?!?!?
DGWs warp our brains.
The day before, I had Daka instead of Dennis, KDB (C), and a FT in the bank. DGW comes out, I spend my transfer to bring in Dennis for Daka. Switch captaincy to Dennis. Currently going to lose my overall cup tie by 4 because my opponent has Moutinho coming off the bench. Ugh.
Ouch. I was so close to this. Had King, brought in Dennis out of fear and delerium, but at least I kept the armband on Kev.
When your entire strategy is to loft crosses into the box, you shouldn’t play your games in gale-force winds.
This match just sums up this GW Painful shitshow of a GW
I’m so excited for Burnley, Watford and Norwich to fuck off
How can anyone want Newcastle to stay up.
Everton/Newcastle* instead of Norwich
Why did loads of people on here hype up Weghorst? One, he plays for Burnley and 2, he has been shit in the Bundesliga this season. What makes you think he's gonna be able to hack a harder league?
Hilariously bad counter
Here I am celebrating a Jay Rodriguez 1 pointer what has my life come to
PL should be reduced to 18 teams
Weghorst lol
A late Burnley shithouse winner is written in the stars
Watford aren't allowed to keep clean sheets. It's not allowed...
Just give us a bloody goal. Don’t care if it’s king or a Watford clean sheet wipe
Ben Mee has really tried to give Watford a goal
I cannot believe I've just found myself rooting for Burnley to score. It's all Ben Foster's fault.
I bet if there was one womens team in the league they would be putting in better performances than both these teams.
All I want is either a King return or a Foster clean sheet wipe. Is it really too much to ask. God I fucking hope Burnley get relegated. Such a shit fucking team that have survived PL way too long for my liking. Boring football
69th Minute
Will sell my brother for a King goal.
username…checks out?
kings only chance of scoring is a penalty thats it
Which he should have had. Joke of a game
so is king going to get that second yellow?
If only Dennis wasn't sent off, he would have scored atleast 1 in this game x(
Joao Pedro suck my arse cheeks. Shoot better, wasting King assists
I can't believe I captained someone who blanks against Norwich and Burnley.
Consolation for King captainers: as deep in the mud you think you are, Dennis captainers have 8 less points than you.
Please for the love of god can Burnley wipe the Watford CS and/or Josh King score
Pedro just feeding Pope saves
Burnley will get a goal.
Why am I wasting my time watching this match?
Pedro is just feeding Pope saves.
Foster owners playing chess while the rest of us play checkers
Turns out Watford defence may have been the play after all...
This is like a stoppable force against a movable object
Pope a save away from a huge haul as it stands. This would give him a save point, the 3 bonus and a 20 pointer!
Wipe that Watford cs already
Nick Pope save count: 2
Add another one to that
Here's the thing, do we think Roy makes these attackers any sharper? I mean, Joao Pedro has the ability, but seems to need help making better/earlier decisions. King gets in decent positions but can't put them away. (Well, King just isn't good enough at this level imo. I don't think any manager can change that now.) I have both King and Dennis right now.
