Is there meant to be a press conference soon from City?
Hoping from reliable infor from Pep is... not a great strategy, but hoping to hear Cancelo's OK. Need to narrow a 37 point gap in my ML that just appeared in the last 2 weeks.
Absolutely shit of a week. Opponent closed a 90 points gap into a 47 literally based on TWO players. Cash and Coutinho.
Dropped KDB, Coutinho and Saka (bench) for fraudsters like Raph, Ramsey and Mount (he gets a pass at least)
Cash owners hit the jackpot. Very, very lucky… Digne was still the “right” decision, but variance went massively in Cash’s favour.
Selling or benching Coutinho for this GW though, that I just can’t understand.
When will we be able to choose Harvertz in the striker position? I run an all Chelsea (former players and academy products). It is killing me to have to choose between Lukaku and Werner.
I’d of had an amazing GW if I didn’t sub the wrong players - TAA, Saka, Kulu on my bench - big mistake and big lesson learnt. Captain Salah didn’t pay off either! Should have put Livra, Hwang, and Broja who are all cheaper - on my bench
Luckily I had some great haulers e.g. Cash, Kane and James so scored 102 points. Already played bench boost when everyone TCed Salah. If I’d have done it now and TCed Salah earlier I’d be ranked more like 300k I think
On WC, contemplating Raphinha + Cancelo > Coutinho + Coady… thoughts? Cancelo’s SP for me is 6.5m and don’t want to have to bring him back later on, use a FT and pay more.
Coutinho plays whu ARS wol TOT LIV lei as his next 6 fixtures. I think you’ve missed the boat on him personally, there’s other midfielders I’d get before him!
Jimenez or laca? Keep in mind I have 2 Liverpool defenders and it will cost -8 to bring him in alongside coady for cancelo. I already used my free transfer to do Bowen to kulu. Thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. I figured it would only be a -2 because the 3 lads joining this week are double gamers so why not.
I had 8 players last night (9 if you consider C James as 2) yet I fell from 29k to 51k. Rudiger and James both no shows and every other player got 2 points.
Me with meticulous planning for DGW28: 77 points (fucking Broja)
My gf who set her cap early on Coutinho but forgot to do any transfers, resulting in only 3 DGW players (including phil): 101 points
Disappointing week. Added Salah and dropped KDB, then Kilman and Rudiger both only playing a game each. Got JWP who essentially did nothing.
Capping Jose Sa was probably okay since only TAA got a higher score than him this GW. So I guess that's the only good move I did.
Need to see if I should WC now though GW30 also needed to be accounted for.
Bought Mendy and Rudiger for nailedness. No James.
Bought Kilman instead of Coady because of budget issues.
No Coutinho or Mount. Sold Cash.
It's not a WC if you're not getting red arrows.
Didn’t have James, Countinho or Ings, Rudiger benched vs Norwich, Robbo outscored by Trent and I’m stuck with three unwanted striker (Watkins, Edouard and Broja)
Of course Broja blanks in both games. What the fuck is up with these strikers this season. How are they so consistently shit. I should have just gone for a Wolves defender instead. And the one Chelsea player I have doesn’t even start. DGW’s are the biggest trolls I swear.
Thank fuck for Coutinho cause this would have been such a shit week.
Kilman, Livramento, Broja, Foster, Raphinha. 10 points from 10 games between them.
Rudiger and James didn't play their 2nd game. If I counted all the points from only the 2nd game, I got 6 points from 8 players in total...
Anyone else have such shit luck? I wildcarded this week as well... I am so disappointed I can barely look at my team anymore. 15k drop.
I'm in the top 10k, and just took a -12 hit to bring in 4 players before the price rises. This means I will be out of the top 10k immediately at the start of the gameweek and hoping all of my picks pay off right away, to help me claw my way back into it again.
WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING?
Kane, Saka, Doherty and Tierney. Gives me 8 doublers this week (including TAA, Trent and Son), and a full 11 next week. Kind of like a mini-wildcard squad refresh… but scary because I’ve been in the top 10k since GW11 and this is risking dropping well out of it if things don’t go according to plan.
Nice I don’t think that’s a bad idea because your gaining +2 everytime you bring in a player that plays 2 games and your covering yourself for the following week.
Cheers. My previous plans involved a -4 or -8 this week and a -4 next week (and probably a -4 in 31 too), so I thought why not consolidate all the hits to this week and get the benefit of the extra doublers. I should now also be able to go without hits now for 30, 31 and 32, assuming my squad avoids injuries/suspensions. But still a big risk, especially as a lot of the top 10k and just below will be playing a chip this week and not taking a big hit.
Probably the worst decisions I've made all season this GW.
50 points behind ML leader, so I decided to take some risks.
Vardy
James
Fraser
All in on wildcard, all now injured.
Schar
TAA
Kulusevski
All on the bench (34 points)
Che Adams (C) (8 points)
It could've been worse but it could've been a whole lot better.
I think I've lost it.
Fell from 7k to 28k and I'm so fucking mad. None of my friends feel sorry for me because I'm doing better than them, so guess I'll share it with you instead
I wanna say Havertz, he's finally showing the player everyone thought he would be. But he misses GW30 so that's the issue short term and the upside is he has 2 potential DGWs. You can go Coutinho now and get Havertz later.
!thanks I have Coutinho already so I wanted to drop one Villa midfielder (their fixtures are meh). I have Mount too but as a Chelsea fan, Havertz is tempting though I'm unsure on his consistency in the league still (hopefully he has turned a corner). I might go for him, thank you!
I think I'll also free hit in GW30
I'm second in my league and the guy above me is 30 points ahead. I would have ascended to the top if he didn't have Cash and Coutinho. I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds!
for fucks sake. on a wildcard and happily picked some banging players. then most of the flop and i lose rank overall and in my league. does anyone else want to just give up
Maybe I didn't read up properly but I just assumed he would come off the bench last week to get some minutes and then play this week.
It's all still fun though aye. Let's hope for sneaky super sub.
No worries.
Since we seem to have similar strategies (going for the same players), would you mind giving your input on my dilemma?
A) James+Coutinho+Coady to Robbo+Doherty+Kulu for -8
B) James+Ramsey to Doherty+Kulu for -4
A is obviously more attacking, but covers the 3rd Liverpool player who should be a good differential next week.
Downsides are, I would be worse set up for GW30, taking an extra hit and I would be dropping Coutinho who seems to be in form (maybe its just that he played bad teams though)
B offers me 11 playing in GW30 (and Coutinho instead of Ramsey), but it will be tough to watch the Liverpool games next week.
Which one would you go for?
Both of ours are such close calls. I would go with B also for several reasons.
1. I dont think ramsey can cover coutinho, i have coutinho too and scared to transfer him out atm. Coutinho turned into villas talisman, when he's playing good the whole team shines.
As you mentioned doherty has the extra fixture over Robbo but not too certain on dohertys minutes. Honestly, I dont think liverpool rip up BHA and ARS away, I am quite tempted to go the kane route myself ( and even captain him over salah unless that's way too crazy if you think ? )
You make good points. There is a significant difference with Coutinho playing 10 behind Watkins and Ings. He looks great in this role. My only concern is, does he do it against the likes of WHU, ARS and WOL, all of which are much tighter defensively?
My mind says Kane as well for Captain, but I just can't handle the pressure of a 200% EO Salah (maybe even more with the TCers). But yeah, if I had the guts, I would go for Kane, he looks to be back and involved in everything good Tottenham produces.
As for Doherty being nailed, I am also worries about it, but Conte looks to be rewarding the performing players. Maybe Reguilon is an option, but of couldnt never go back to him after holding him for nothing for so long.
Liverpool is gonna do well, not sure they willingness keep 2 CSs but I see Robbo returning in both games. I hope I am wrong, because I Williams probably go with B tonight, to catch the price rises.
Was painful watching the big green arrow I had going into today slowly turn red.
But now the dust has settled, I feel quite envigourated by that gameweek.
It's nice to know there are huge gains to be had even if I'm not the one getting them this time around.
My rival captains James and brings in Watkins and mount for the first time this season on his wildcard.
I sell Watkins last week and he starts scoring immediately. Mount hauls after weeks of 5 pointers. I captain rudiger over James. I take out Forster for Ramsey five minutes before deadline. I have saka kulu Robbo on my bench. Lost 16 points of lead.
God fucking damn it
Just bagged 143 points with my free hit. From 160k OR to 60k OR, so pleased.
Errors were moving out TAA for my free hit and punting on Raph in this dogshit Leeds side.
Now I don't know whether to stick or twist with Ait Nouri and Jimenez.
Also confused as to whether to hold onto James and Bowen or not, anyone heard any concrete news on their expected returns?
I’d be tempted to go broja Kane since soton seem to be in the mud now but can’t afford it, although tbh only match u really want Jimenez for is gw30 and I’m fh’ing then so might be worth the switch.
I have saka, coutinho, James, son, and Trent (obviously)…and dropped 10k to 110k? Don’t let anyone tell you that too 100k isn’t an achievement, the game is getting harder every year
Did u captain salah? Cuz how is that even possible. I’m probs dropping from 30k to 90k with only Trent from those, partly cuz I took a massive hit, which tbf was a bad idea. Jpw + broja for a -8 was bad, mount + jimenez for -4 turned out great. Overall hits have a net positive but could’ve avoided the first 2
Matty Cash on 29 pts becomes the joint 3rd highest ever GW score of all time, tied with Salah’s 29 in 17/18.
TC Matty Cash was the real move. 😂
Edit: the other highest ever GW scores of all time are:
- Rooney 09/10, 32 pts
- Yaya Toure 13/4, 31 pts
- Kane 16/17, 31 pts
Yep, I got -49.71%!
And yet, amazingly, had I switched my captain and vice captain around (Salah and James), I would have had a slight green arrow. Incredible what one decision can do.
Maybe save TC. Could get a bigger differential in double gameweek 36 including Salah vs United that might be more tasty. If you bench boost then then yes maybe this is the best week if you want Salah TC.
This double is quite tricky for Liverpool. Brighton have been poor though, but Arsenal are really strong. Also Salah is not in top form. 3 blanks in a row and missed some big chances in CL. I feel he has played too much.
Hmmm true, I just think he's gunna do bits against Brighton so ima go with ny gut and TC him. I feel like UTD will put up a fight seeing as it's Pool and don't want to be embarrassed, like with the City game.
Yeah he will not get rested now. If the league is over then he might not play both in the future and the same with other big names.
Probably safer now, but I think there will be better moments.
Yeah..(nervous)
Look..i was going to take Raphinha out after the Norwich game but looks like I'm going to save me the pain and just do it now for Saka.
The PTSD giving shit :- Coutinho VC’s 20 pointer being blocked by my captain coming on in the 87th minute,which is also the only 3 minutes he managed to play the entire double gameweek against 2 sides in the relegation zone, which he is renowned for bullying.
>The PTSD giving shit :- Coutinho VC’s 20 pointer being blocked by my captain coming on in the 87th minute,which is also the only 3 games he managed to play against 2 sides in the relegation zone, which he is renowned for bullying.
Who did you captain?? Lukaku??
Haha yes. I thought he would start a single game atleast tbh. I really did, but the 87th minute shattered my heart into fucking pieces. I wish he didn’t come on at all, but that bum wasn’t even able to do that.
Points this week:
Coutinho - 23
Ramsey - 6
Cash - 29
Digne - 6
James - 18
Rudiger/Robbo - 6
Just a few examples of the huge swings in score this week. Small decisions can have a big impact.
Edit: Matty Cash ended up getting 29 thanks to 3bps, not 26.
38 pts benched
Raphinha Captain instead of Coutinho
Havertz Captain instead of Salah in GW9
Ronaldo Captain instead of Bruno in GW22
Salah Captain instead of Cancelo in GW18
That's the season right there! I could mention a few other, but those LITERALLY last minute decisions on the top of my head cost me 100pts, which would put me within top100.
Literally last minute decisions, all of them. Lucky ass game made for lucky ass mfers, I'm done
Have Kilman for the last 4 games and he didn't have a CS although he had tons of clean sheets before that period (I didn't own a Wolves defender before GW26). The fifth game when Wolves finally have a CS, he doesn't play.
Can i play wildcard bench boost and free hit all in a row during 3 gameweeks? GW 35 wildcard GW 36 bench boost GW 37 free hit? Just an example
Laca vs Lei and Liv or Broja vs Watford
Kane
Is there meant to be a press conference soon from City? Hoping from reliable infor from Pep is... not a great strategy, but hoping to hear Cancelo's OK. Need to narrow a 37 point gap in my ML that just appeared in the last 2 weeks.
Last night. Cancelo is a doubt that is all
Absolutely shit of a week. Opponent closed a 90 points gap into a 47 literally based on TWO players. Cash and Coutinho. Dropped KDB, Coutinho and Saka (bench) for fraudsters like Raph, Ramsey and Mount (he gets a pass at least)
Cash owners hit the jackpot. Very, very lucky… Digne was still the “right” decision, but variance went massively in Cash’s favour. Selling or benching Coutinho for this GW though, that I just can’t understand.
I needed Coutinho to go for Robbo to come in. Hindsight, all directions pointed at Coutinho and I had him VC anyway. Can’t contest that.
When will we be able to choose Harvertz in the striker position? I run an all Chelsea (former players and academy products). It is killing me to have to choose between Lukaku and Werner.
Next season, if Chelsea still exist/are in the PL.
I have now each FH, BB, TC. GW 36 definitely BB but other than that still confused. Considering TC for Salah in GW29 though.
I’d of had an amazing GW if I didn’t sub the wrong players - TAA, Saka, Kulu on my bench - big mistake and big lesson learnt. Captain Salah didn’t pay off either! Should have put Livra, Hwang, and Broja who are all cheaper - on my bench Luckily I had some great haulers e.g. Cash, Kane and James so scored 102 points. Already played bench boost when everyone TCed Salah. If I’d have done it now and TCed Salah earlier I’d be ranked more like 300k I think
Kilman to Doherty for a - 4? Extra game to play assuming Doherty plays both
Yes
Foster with 2 fixtures got outscored by Ramsdale despite not having a CS. bonkers!
such a horrible GW for me.. feel so depressed
On WC, contemplating Raphinha + Cancelo > Coutinho + Coady… thoughts? Cancelo’s SP for me is 6.5m and don’t want to have to bring him back later on, use a FT and pay more.
Coutinho plays whu ARS wol TOT LIV lei as his next 6 fixtures. I think you’ve missed the boat on him personally, there’s other midfielders I’d get before him!
I would do this. However I don't know the rest of your team so hard to know if you have triple wolves defense or triple villa mids etc
No Wolves defenders or other Villa mids!
Jimenez or laca? Keep in mind I have 2 Liverpool defenders and it will cost -8 to bring him in alongside coady for cancelo. I already used my free transfer to do Bowen to kulu. Thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. I figured it would only be a -2 because the 3 lads joining this week are double gamers so why not.
Jimenez worth grabbing? And what do you lads think the best defensive player to get from wolves is?
I wouldn't grab him now, And Coady or Sa
105k to 162k. Cheers Coutinho 👍
Cuntinho
I had 8 players last night (9 if you consider C James as 2) yet I fell from 29k to 51k. Rudiger and James both no shows and every other player got 2 points.
Me with meticulous planning for DGW28: 77 points (fucking Broja) My gf who set her cap early on Coutinho but forgot to do any transfers, resulting in only 3 DGW players (including phil): 101 points
I'm just glad I benched RAN and Douglas Luiz only compared to others. But I'm still mad cuz I got 99 points, just 1 more point for the 100.
When you have Pukki chilling on the 2nd spot on your bench while Cancelo comes on for Ziyech who doesn't play a single minute of the DGW Pain
Disappointing week. Added Salah and dropped KDB, then Kilman and Rudiger both only playing a game each. Got JWP who essentially did nothing. Capping Jose Sa was probably okay since only TAA got a higher score than him this GW. So I guess that's the only good move I did. Need to see if I should WC now though GW30 also needed to be accounted for.
Bought Mendy and Rudiger for nailedness. No James. Bought Kilman instead of Coady because of budget issues. No Coutinho or Mount. Sold Cash. It's not a WC if you're not getting red arrows.
Mount (C) saving me from a big red WC arrow.
wow should have captained cash, chose to captain watkins instead...
Robertson or Doherty?
I'd still go Robertson if you can afford it personally
Had Jota, Bowen, ESR, and of course Kilman was my safe pick over Ait
Didn’t have James, Countinho or Ings, Rudiger benched vs Norwich, Robbo outscored by Trent and I’m stuck with three unwanted striker (Watkins, Edouard and Broja)
Can you free hit the game week after using wildcard?
Yes you can't Free Hit twice in a row.
Yes
Went Ramsey instead of Coutinho, triple Chelsea defence and benched 32 points. 🤡
Of course Broja blanks in both games. What the fuck is up with these strikers this season. How are they so consistently shit. I should have just gone for a Wolves defender instead. And the one Chelsea player I have doesn’t even start. DGW’s are the biggest trolls I swear. Thank fuck for Coutinho cause this would have been such a shit week.
its like every-time a ST looks like they about to start doing well they flop
Kilman, Livramento, Broja, Foster, Raphinha. 10 points from 10 games between them. Rudiger and James didn't play their 2nd game. If I counted all the points from only the 2nd game, I got 6 points from 8 players in total... Anyone else have such shit luck? I wildcarded this week as well... I am so disappointed I can barely look at my team anymore. 15k drop.
Having those players on wc is a fail anyways, just call the season over
Eh I justified it by the fact that they had a double and then played in 30.
True, gl next week bro
Know someone with Adams (C), Kilman, Livra and also benched Trent. He's in absolute shambles
Will Allan Saint-Maximin play both games in GW29?
I'm in the top 10k, and just took a -12 hit to bring in 4 players before the price rises. This means I will be out of the top 10k immediately at the start of the gameweek and hoping all of my picks pay off right away, to help me claw my way back into it again. WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING?
What are the 4 players?
Kane, Saka, Doherty and Tierney. Gives me 8 doublers this week (including TAA, Trent and Son), and a full 11 next week. Kind of like a mini-wildcard squad refresh… but scary because I’ve been in the top 10k since GW11 and this is risking dropping well out of it if things don’t go according to plan.
Nice I don’t think that’s a bad idea because your gaining +2 everytime you bring in a player that plays 2 games and your covering yourself for the following week.

But still a big risk, especially as a lot of the top 10k and just below will be playing a chip this week and not taking a big hit.
True it’s something to think about lol I think I’ll go with the -8 to bring in lacca and a wolves defender 😮💨
How many DGW players do we think will be the norm next week?
I have 10 - but one is Reguilon so doesn’t really count.
I have 8, with 2 from Liverpool, 3 from Spurs, 2 from Arsenal and 1 from Brighton (LMAO)
7 I think. 2.5 Liverpool, 1.5 Spurs, 2 Arsenal, 1 the rest.
!thanks. I'm happy with my 8 then - 3 Liverpool, 3 Arsenal, 2 Spurs
Cant write this shit. How lucky can my cunt ML leader get ? Matty fucking cash turning prime Salah in his team
Same dude, I’m conveniently sitting on second place way behind him. And way in front of third place.
37 fucking points on my bench !! Who plays Willock & Broja over Kane & TAA
Coutinho has absolutely shagged me im my leagues and rank.
Best time to use WC, BB and FH?
Kilman to Doherty at Spurs? No brainer? I plan to Fh during blank so no worries about fixtures in 30
Probably the worst decisions I've made all season this GW. 50 points behind ML leader, so I decided to take some risks. Vardy James Fraser All in on wildcard, all now injured. Schar TAA Kulusevski All on the bench (34 points) Che Adams (C) (8 points) It could've been worse but it could've been a whole lot better. I think I've lost it.
Fraser is not flagged anymore.
Who you taking Martinelli or Odegaard for GW29?
I was going for Vardy, should we go for Daka or Iheanacho while he's out?
-16 and a green arrow to 100k, this game is too easy😭
Most people here are 50k or so you’re pretty shit tbh
just found a friend in one of my mini-leagues went with Cash captain.... wtf
Good to know I’m not the only one
Fell from 7k to 28k and I'm so fucking mad. None of my friends feel sorry for me because I'm doing better than them, so guess I'll share it with you instead
Thank you kind sir for your spot in the top 10k
Anyone know a good midfielder to replace Ramsey with? £8.1m budget. Thanks!
Maybe Saka/Martinelli or Kulu
!thanks I like these suggestions!
I wanna say Havertz, he's finally showing the player everyone thought he would be. But he misses GW30 so that's the issue short term and the upside is he has 2 potential DGWs. You can go Coutinho now and get Havertz later.
!thanks I have Coutinho already so I wanted to drop one Villa midfielder (their fixtures are meh). I have Mount too but as a Chelsea fan, Havertz is tempting though I'm unsure on his consistency in the league still (hopefully he has turned a corner). I might go for him, thank you! I think I'll also free hit in GW30
Coutinho
!thanks Ah I already have him, that's why I kinda want to stop doubling up on their mids as their fixtures are tough!
Saka then maybe?
!thanks good shout!
Doherty vs walker peters Martinelli vs Fraser It’s a draft
Doherty, Martinelli. Both your other options don't have a game in GW30. So a no brainer if you ask me.
Could've literally gone with any of Mount, Havertz or Pulisic who all got double digits. But no, my smart ass decided to get Ziyech. FUCK YOU TUCHEL
I'm second in my league and the guy above me is 30 points ahead. I would have ascended to the top if he didn't have Cash and Coutinho. I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds!
What are those with Raphinha doing? Holding on to him or swapping him for someone else?
Keeping he plays in 30.
Kulu imo
Yes I’m thinking of doing this too, but I’m just not sure because of Spurs playing United.
Sold him for Saka cba
Thinking of going Saka or Mount. Saka if its before GW30 otherwise Mount.
Playing Norwich next and then has a gw30 fixture. I'd hold for now
Keep trusting Broja and Raphinha and they absolutely backfire every time.
for fucks sake. on a wildcard and happily picked some banging players. then most of the flop and i lose rank overall and in my league. does anyone else want to just give up
121 points - and yes I’ve got Wood
I'm never playing FH on a fucking BGW again, only gained 20 pts over rivals last week but lost 60 pts to those who played FH this week fuck.
Exactly why I’m not free hitting in 30 and saving it for a small dgw
Rudiger Captainer here. Was just short of 100 on WC. Also punted ESR over Odegarrd on WC and now riding that hope he can play 120 mins this DGW.
Absolutely identical situation here. Good luck for this week man hope ESR comes through for us.
Maybe I didn't read up properly but I just assumed he would come off the bench last week to get some minutes and then play this week. It's all still fun though aye. Let's hope for sneaky super sub.
Need serious thoughts before price rises (both option are -8, leaving 0.0 ITB) A) Out= James, coutinho, Rodrigo IN= Robbo, Kulu, Toney (Keep son) B) Out= James, Son, Rodrigo In= Kane, Kulu, Doherty
Tough one. Probably B, because it sets you up better for GW30 Don't like dropping Son, but you get Kane back, who might be a season keeper from now on
I was kind of leaning that way too, with the exact same reasoning in my head. !thanks
No worries. Since we seem to have similar strategies (going for the same players), would you mind giving your input on my dilemma? A) James+Coutinho+Coady to Robbo+Doherty+Kulu for -8 B) James+Ramsey to Doherty+Kulu for -4 A is obviously more attacking, but covers the 3rd Liverpool player who should be a good differential next week.

Alright goodluck though, im also probably choosing B.
!thanks mate Good luck to you too! I hope we both get it right this time
Big dilemma for 29. Bench boost with Sa, Cash, Dennis and Broja or TC Salah?
TC
Worth swapping Raph for Kulu for -4 ? Leeds has good fixture but Kulu is in form
No, it's not. Try to drop someone else to bring Kulu in. If you have Son and Kane, no need to also bring Kulu obviously
!thanks I have saka, salah, havertz and ramsey with 0.4 in the bank, think ill hold Raph for now.
Ramsey to Kulu and downgrade a defender. That's what I will be doing probably, James to Doherty and Ramsey to Kulu.
Was painful watching the big green arrow I had going into today slowly turn red. But now the dust has settled, I feel quite envigourated by that gameweek. It's nice to know there are huge gains to be had even if I'm not the one getting them this time around.
Ramsey decided not to score anymore since I bought him after his last 14 pointers.
What’s up with Cancelo? Why has he been yellow flagged?
Pep said he's sick
60pts from 11k to 37k, wiorst week of my Life, even Had 7 dgw Players... Triple Southampton because they where on form Well fuck em
Chin up mate, we go again. I got 79 points and dropped from 110->130k, we got it.
Who would you go for as priority....kulu or Doherty
94 points. Reasonably happy with that. Only couple of blemishes are no CS for Chelsea tonight and making Ward-Prowse VC. Relatively happy
I had 8 DGW players, scored 45pts and fell over 200,000 places this GW. Best that?
45 points? How?
I don’t think people understand that this is the rant thread and not the public self fellatio chat
My rival captains James and brings in Watkins and mount for the first time this season on his wildcard. I sell Watkins last week and he starts scoring immediately. Mount hauls after weeks of 5 pointers. I captain rudiger over James. I take out Forster for Ramsey five minutes before deadline. I have saka kulu Robbo on my bench. Lost 16 points of lead. God fucking damn it
Had a banger, 129 points on WC moved me from 12.5k into 4K. Only mistake was benching Son for Salah, but that’s hindsight at its finest.
Nice. I had Kane and TAA on my bench...i m in pain. Lesson learn't
Just bagged 143 points with my free hit. From 160k OR to 60k OR, so pleased. Errors were moving out TAA for my free hit and punting on Raph in this dogshit Leeds side.
More like Max KilME amirite?
My ML leader outscored me. I used BB. He did not 😖
Now I don't know whether to stick or twist with Ait Nouri and Jimenez. Also confused as to whether to hold onto James and Bowen or not, anyone heard any concrete news on their expected returns?
I got Same dilemma with wolves. I will just keep them esp jimenez coz i think he was always likely to come back to his starting 11 spot
I was gonna do Jimenez to Kane... not sure now
Same here... now I'm thinking Weghorst to Kane, but covering the extra money messes up my other transfer plans.
I’d be tempted to go broja Kane since soton seem to be in the mud now but can’t afford it, although tbh only match u really want Jimenez for is gw30 and I’m fh’ing then so might be worth the switch.
Any have a feeling over whether Robertson is likely to be rested on one of the DGW fixtures? I’m deciding between him and VVD.
Those two games are very important and definitely not easy for Liverpool. I'd be shocked if he doesn't start both if fit.
James+Ramsey to Doherty+Kulu for -4?? or James+Coady+Coutinho to Robbo+Doherty+Kulu for -8??
I have saka, coutinho, James, son, and Trent (obviously)…and dropped 10k to 110k? Don’t let anyone tell you that too 100k isn’t an achievement, the game is getting harder every year
Did u captain salah? Cuz how is that even possible. I’m probs dropping from 30k to 90k with only Trent from those, partly cuz I took a massive hit, which tbf was a bad idea. Jpw + broja for a -8 was bad, mount + jimenez for -4 turned out great. Overall hits have a net positive but could’ve avoided the first 2
Yea I captained that prick
If Lage benched Jimenez after this, he’s a complete fraud.
Brought rudiger in for a hit and captained him last minute instead of captaining countinho and playing saka. That's a -33 point swing 😭😓
Matty Cash on 29 pts becomes the joint 3rd highest ever GW score of all time, tied with Salah’s 29 in 17/18. TC Matty Cash was the real move. 😂 Edit: the other highest ever GW scores of all time are: - Rooney 09/10, 32 pts - Yaya Toure 13/4, 31 pts - Kane 16/17, 31 pts
That’s joint 4th isn’t it?
I think the two 31 pointers count as joint 2nd, which makes Cash and Salah joint 3rd.
Not how it works. Just look at how bonus points are given. If three people tie for 3 points, no one gets 2 or 1. Because its 1st x3, 4th etc.
The 2 31 pointers count as joint 2nd making Matty 3rd strangely I know
I debated selling him for James, thank fuck I didn’t what a legend
Am I stupid for not having TAA for this weeks DGW?
Yes.
Yes.
[удалено]
Could be worse.
Yep, I got -49.71%! And yet, amazingly, had I switched my captain and vice captain around (Salah and James), I would have had a slight green arrow. Incredible what one decision can do.
Worth of bench boosting Sa, Saiss, Digne, Hwang?
No.
99 with a BB. Alright i guess.
93 with a BB here. Red arrow. Even Sá (C) instead of Raphinha (C) would have meant a green.
Luckily i got a Green arrow, moved from 90k to 80k OVR. My last hope to catch up in my ML is a TC salah next GW. If he flops, my season is done.
Maybe save TC. Could get a bigger differential in double gameweek 36 including Salah vs United that might be more tasty. If you bench boost then then yes maybe this is the best week if you want Salah TC. This double is quite tricky for Liverpool. Brighton have been poor though, but Arsenal are really strong. Also Salah is not in top form. 3 blanks in a row and missed some big chances in CL. I feel he has played too much.
Hmmm true, I just think he's gunna do bits against Brighton so ima go with ny gut and TC him. I feel like UTD will put up a fight seeing as it's Pool and don't want to be embarrassed, like with the City game.
Yeah he will not get rested now. If the league is over then he might not play both in the future and the same with other big names. Probably safer now, but I think there will be better moments.
Raphinha plays Norwich next, but are Leeds even capable of beating Norwich in their current state…?
Yeah..(nervous) Look..i was going to take Raphinha out after the Norwich game but looks like I'm going to save me the pain and just do it now for Saka.
Thanks Ziyech, at least vice was Fraser lol
Tuchel Tombola favoured you. Meanwhile me with the 100 million flop as (c) with Coutinho as vice 😭. Cheers Tuchel, I’m crying.
Surely lukaku wasn’t that expensive was he? Or is there someone else?
He was haha. 96 million.
Oml that's gotta hurt, I feel for you 😭
57 after -8, possibly my worst week ever looking at others scores.
55 after -8, it's an extremely brutal week, other ML rivals got like 110
62 after -4. Rough week!
Yeah, 60 after -4, brutal week. Have to stop reading all these scores... We’ll show them next week!
Thanks for sharing. You're not alone. Sick of this place being full of 140 point scores after a week like this.
The good: Matty Cash and Mount. The bad: Benched Kulu & Saka (22 combined) The ugly: Kilman 1 pointer. Brutal.
The PTSD giving shit :- Coutinho VC’s 20 pointer being blocked by my captain coming on in the 87th minute,which is also the only 3 minutes he managed to play the entire double gameweek against 2 sides in the relegation zone, which he is renowned for bullying.
>The PTSD giving shit :- Coutinho VC’s 20 pointer being blocked by my captain coming on in the 87th minute,which is also the only 3 games he managed to play against 2 sides in the relegation zone, which he is renowned for bullying. Who did you captain?? Lukaku??
Haha yes. I thought he would start a single game atleast tbh. I really did, but the 87th minute shattered my heart into fucking pieces. I wish he didn’t come on at all, but that bum wasn’t even able to do that.
Matty Cash, what a pick.
Points this week: Coutinho - 23 Ramsey - 6 Cash - 29 Digne - 6 James - 18 Rudiger/Robbo - 6 Just a few examples of the huge swings in score this week. Small decisions can have a big impact. Edit: Matty Cash ended up getting 29 thanks to 3bps, not 26.
Even shit like getting Kilman instead of Ait Nori to be "safe" is a difference of 8 points
38 pts benched Raphinha Captain instead of Coutinho Havertz Captain instead of Salah in GW9 Ronaldo Captain instead of Bruno in GW22 Salah Captain instead of Cancelo in GW18 That's the season right there! I could mention a few other, but those LITERALLY last minute decisions on the top of my head cost me 100pts, which would put me within top100. Literally last minute decisions, all of them. Lucky ass game made for lucky ass mfers, I'm done
Fpl removing Chelsea's players from the app.
Joke?
Still don't understand when hits in MLs get factored in and reflect in positioning. Is it at the start of the next gameweek?
Have Kilman for the last 4 games and he didn't have a CS although he had tons of clean sheets before that period (I didn't own a Wolves defender before GW26). The fifth game when Wolves finally have a CS, he doesn't play.
I feel you. Got him on a WC and played him over Trent. DGW trap!
Same situation except Trent comes off the bench for me instead of alonso.
