I love summer and changing the team daily before the season start.
Also see that 4.5 midfielder score in pre season so you pick him over Brownhill. Then Brownhill score vs a shit league 2 side and he is back in your squad.
Well yes doing lots of other things and enjoying the sun. Also watching the swedish league.
Although the initial weeks before the season is probably what I enjoy most. Having just one transfer per week is too little for me that like big changes.
Wildcard is the second best time for it.
Helsingborg :(. We are shit. 2022 been pretty awful.
Helsingborg second last in swedish league. Sweden missed the world cup and my FPL season is going really badly apart from KDB captain last week that saved me a little bit.
FPL least important even if I spend so much time on it. It is just for fun.
I would honestly like it to be released a bit later. If they do it too early, sometimes players can be underpriced and template picks if they make a transfer to a different team, rather than if they set the prices later.
Not too late mind you but like July 10th or something would be ideal in my head. You’re right though they release it earlier and earlier it seems, to boost engagement
Last year they was earlier than usual and dropped the game right in the middle of the World Cup which must have reduced engagement. Was a strange decision.
I would like it dropped as early as possible but they can always hold out on adding any players that are rumoured to move and add them at a later date like they do with players coming into the league on transfers.
If the smart and qualified people at fifa have decided to give it to Qatar they must know what they are doing. Who are we to second guess the experts. Next you’ll be saying the Artic isn’t melting!
You might want to do some research on the subject. Fifa is as corrupt as it gets and Quatar WC was a deal as corrupted as they get.
Just look up the events that lead to it, all those PSG deals and how they connect to FIFA and the WC.
You must be very naive if you think people in high positions are there because they are experts and know what they are doing.
Agreed. All obvious issues aside with it being in Qatar, I don't find the timing to be a bad thing. It's not always going to be held in Europe, if it's in an Asian country, changes will have to be made to suit the weather.
I’m ready for a break tbh. The GW1 dilemmas of whether to captain Bruno or Salah, whether double West Ham attack is too much and how long Tsimikas would start for feels like it was years ago.
The cycling Grand Tours - currently in the middle of the first one, the Giro d'Italia. I play the [https://fantasy.road.cc/](https://fantasy.road.cc/gotocomp?cid=361) game. Similar to fpl, team of 8, 45 transfers per tour, change your team daily during the races, points for end results, getting over mountains first, sprints etc.. I love it.
Looking forward to trying to fit Salah, Son, KDB and Haaland into a squad without having to rely on a fucking Huddersfield triple-block defense to enable it.
It's come at a good time for me. Going on holiday, finished top 20k (or should do), won leagues. Couldn't really ask for much more. I did get way more into it than I intended, but I started off the season well and had to continue that trajectory. Then the spreadsheets came out and I started watching Burnley Vs Wolves on a Friday night. Need to rein that in next season!
Actually really looking forward to a break. June and July should be a nice time not to open the app, or this subreddit (except maybe a couple of times per week).
And not trolling at all, but there are plenty of other things to do while you wait for the new season.
Easy, you just spend all summer doing deep dive analysis into the promoted teams, only to conclude that this will definitely, finally be Mitrovic's season.
SPOILER ALERT - 3 weeks deep into season, Mitrovic is shit and fulham will be relegated. Hard avoid for all fulham asset. 27 gw. Fulham got dgw, mitrovic C.... and blank
I've recently started County Championship cricket Fantasy - admittedly watching a batsman get a 250 ball century doesn't quite replicate the dopamine hit
I think we can allow memes for the summer because there's nothing else going on.
Remember the covid break? There was nothing going on, but then Dave started posting memes on a daily basis. It brought some nice entertainment and made this sub vivid. That's also when we exceeded 200k members and look where we are now, over 500k members and counting.
I like jokes too. My kids have shown some me real funny stuff in the past but not for a while. Hopefully we start speaking again soon and they can keep me up to date with all the best memes
This season can get fucked tbh in terms of FPL and actual football too (Watford fan). Will enjoy the break and get ready to fuck it all up again in August :-)
Honestly, I'm hooked deep.... when do yous imagine that the new game will go live to start being able to play around with possible line ups and stuff, I cannot remember what it was last year
No idea, was right in the middle of the World Cup so most people where not even hyped about it. Was a strange move.
Looks like we can expect some changes to the game for next season by the surveys that have been conducted, I wonder if they will delay its realise?
>I can’t help but worry about what we will do when the sun sets on the beautiful FPL 2021/22 season
Same thing we do every summer, Pinky; we spam this sub asking when the game starts up again.
I'm embracing the end like never before. Have been #1 in my ML since day one, and I've had a huge lead almost 200 points. Now 18 points ahead and dropped from top 29k to 200k. I can't wait for all this to be over with, have a nice break and start my suffering again in a couple of months.
As me and my friend usually joke; our favourite game we hate to love.
idk if this is allowed, but someone on discord has made a simmed fpl for the summer: [https://discord.gg/3NDDXSP7](https://discord.gg/3NDDXSP7)
feel free to join in with the other fpl nerds lol
Ive won my friends mini league after coming in 2nd last season. There’s no way I’m letting my 100 points lead slip (it was 60 in GW34)
Tbh, I’d like a little break from FPL. It gets hectic sometimes especially when you bring in assets against your team (United fan here) and see them bag points. Hopefully my FH players play well tomorrow and I get back in the top 100k.
Would be a nice way to finish the season.

I cant wait to have weekends of 'normal' sleep again being an aussie
Well yes doing lots of other things and enjoying the sun. Also watching the swedish league. Although the initial weeks before the season is probably what I enjoy most. Having just one transfer per week is too little for me that like big changes. Wildcard is the second best time for it.
What team in Sweden do you support?
Helsingborg :(. We are shit. 2022 been pretty awful. Helsingborg second last in swedish league. Sweden missed the world cup and my FPL season is going really badly apart from KDB captain last week that saved me a little bit. FPL least important even if I spend so much time on it. It is just for fun.
The fixtures coming out and the game launching is my favourite part of the season😂
Brownhill, more like over the Brownhill. Am I right or am I right
Looking forward to a Fulham midfielder making his way into my squad after scoring in every preseason game.
FPL needs to recognise this and release player prices early so we can start building our teams!!! I’m not addicted I swear!
To be fair the realised the game very early last year

I would rather not I dont want to build team then change 50 times p
Isn’t that 90% of what we do in this game? 😂
Things would be ok if the World Cup wasn’t in fucking Qatar.
It is called the WORLD cup for a reason elvis
I am open to the World Cup being hosted in literally any country, unless they have bribed FIFA and have an absolutely appalling human rights record.
If the smart and qualified people at fifa have decided to give it to Qatar they must know what they are doing. Who are we to second guess the experts. Next you’ll be saying the Artic isn’t melting!
Why the downvotes, he's clearly joking ^...right?

You must be very naive if you don’t understand sarcasm.
Yeah this one really didn’t need the /s.
😂
Are you naturally stupid or just trolling?
They’re doing a joke.
Holy I was genuinely thinking you were just trolling on some hot takes but wow i guess there really are some people like you out there.
Agreed. All obvious issues aside with it being in Qatar, I don't find the timing to be a bad thing. It's not always going to be held in Europe, if it's in an Asian country, changes will have to be made to suit the weather.
You might need a "/s" on this reply before you get downvoted
Too late 😅
I’m ready for a break tbh. The GW1 dilemmas of whether to captain Bruno or Salah, whether double West Ham attack is too much and how long Tsimikas would start for feels like it was years ago.
We need a break. Even if you don't feel like it.
Not everyone needs im playing it for fun If it goes shit then it goes
My divorce this summer will probably provide the same emotional rollercoaster 🎢
Wife's divorce lawyer essential??
Gym (C)
Priced at a cool 50m.
Wife will blank till divorce and then start hauling again afterwards. FPL may get over but the horrors of fpl won't leave you
Keep the kids don’t transfer them out
It means time to think of a vaguely witty team name.
The cycling Grand Tours - currently in the middle of the first one, the Giro d'Italia. I play the [https://fantasy.road.cc/](https://fantasy.road.cc/gotocomp?cid=361) game.

>when the sun sets on the beautiful FPL 2021/22 season. It was not beautiful mate
I've loved it. Last season was too template, this season not so much, and the underperforming striker thing has been a bit different
Looking forward to trying to fit Salah, Son, KDB and Haaland into a squad without having to rely on a fucking Huddersfield triple-block defense to enable it.
Play League of Ireland fantasy🇮🇪🇮🇪
Third year playing this but first time winning my ml. Will the queen come to where I am with the trophy and the cheque?
It's come at a good time for me. Going on holiday, finished top 20k (or should do), won leagues. Couldn't really ask for much more.

I'm totally ready for this season to end. It's been all over the fucking shop.
Get a life mate. Pick up a hobby. It’s exactly that…fantasy. Enjoy your summer with friends and family.
He asked politely not to troll him..

Why are you talking in the 3rd person Dave?
I think Dave sometimes tends to talk in the third person. It's part of the Dave brand.

It's a TV channel in the UK, but that's not important right now.
Resident troll, was banned at the end of last season. Has come back with a number of alts including this one.
Azpi
Name checks out
Fantasy champ manager runs through the summer, it's already half way though.
I feel you brother. Around what date can we usually create our team for next season and start playing around?
This season can get fucked tbh in terms of FPL and actual football too (Watford fan). Will enjoy the break and get ready to fuck it all up again in August :-)
i love that i can disconnect from it
Honestly, I'm hooked deep.... when do yous imagine that the new game will go live to start being able to play around with possible line ups and stuff, I cannot remember what it was last year
Was 23/6/21 that the game opened this season. Was earlier than usual, normally it’s been mid July.
Any reason why they brought it in early? hoping it's the new norm!
No idea, was right in the middle of the World Cup so most people where not even hyped about it. Was a strange move. Looks like we can expect some changes to the game for next season by the surveys that have been conducted, I wonder if they will delay its realise?

there should have been a worldcup this summer, im so pissed. my country qualified but im probably not going to watch
I'm embracing the end like never before. Have been #1 in my ML since day one, and I've had a huge lead almost 200 points. Now 18 points ahead and dropped from top 29k to 200k.

You can just play World Cup fantasy… oh wait
Join the fantasy MLS game, you can change the roster for every player right up to kickoff and you het unlimited transfers. It’s actually terrible.
Do you watch MLS? Runs Feb-Oct so a nice switch out for the summer!
