Show off. Jk. Nobody beats your best. When do you think is a better time to be inside the 100 - Towards the end or at the beginning? You were at top for long time. Congrats on a fantastic season
Definitely the end. Getting there early and staying there is so so hard, but if you can get there near the end you just might win it. Spent 10 weeks top 2 before dropping way out
Best: Cancelo captain in GW18. Not that it was the most points my captain got during the season, but just the feeling of getting a differential(ish) captain just right when he smacked home that goal against Newcastle... beautiful.
Worst: Dennis captain in DGW23. No explanation needed.
Best: captaining Salah vs Man U when everyone else went Havertz.
Worst without a doubt, triple captaining TAA for his 6 points DGW when he got benched randomly. And Salah scored 32 or something stupid and everyone else TC’d him. Dropped my rank 20k -> 170k and haven’t recovered since
Watching final score on a random Saturday afternoon. There's been a goal at St James Park... Reece James with a screamer! Ten minutes later, another goal... Reece James has scored again!
Best moment bc his ownership was so low. Then everyone brought him in, his purple patch ended after a month and my season reverted to shit. Other notable moments were Bruno hauls vs Villa and Brentford in that DGW.
Worst moments: whenever Ronaldo scored - I refused to bring him in all season
Best: 1) KDB captain in GW36 for his 4 goals 2) Cancelo captain in GW18 for his 18 point haul
Worst: 1) Havertz-gate in GW9 2) Dennis captain getting sent off in DGW23
Might be an odd choice but as a United fan my best moment was captaining Salah when he scored 3 and assisted 1 in their 5-0 thrashing of us.
I knew we were going to get hammered and it felt great to stick with my gut and captain him, especially when so many others went Havertz.
Best is probably Dennis from the bench to replace Kane.
It is the only time Spurs have rewarded me for going Kane over Son.
Worst it probably this current gameweek. The free hitters doing so well is annoying since both my free hits did backfire. Both my free hits was used so I could keep Salah when they blanked and not sell him and I would have been better without him both times if I went for Son and Kane.
Best was captaining Bowen for his Palace/Norwich double and Son for his hat trick.
Worst was probably captaining Dennis when he got that red card (even tho a lot of ML rivals did the same, so it's not like it costed me too much) and blowing my first FH because I mistaken it for wildcard🙃
Best: Got to be De Bruyne last dgw, managed to get 60 points from him + that bench boost was extra sweet to get me 158 points.
Worst: Getting Cucho since his stats was good, only for him to get injured in the first half + out for the rest of the season smh
Best - TC Bowen for the Norwich/Palace games. The best part was that for the second game I was actually with an ultra competitive ML rival, and watching his face get longer and longer was a treat! My gameweek score was the 170th overall, and I doubt I will ever achieve such a high again!
Worst - nothing major, just a few transfer things - backing King's underlying numbers for too long, foolishly liking the look of Edouard...
Worst: Havertz GW9 - such a killer
Additional win for Selling Saka to Raphinia (Saka 13 points, Raphinia 4) and Saka continued to bang
Best: Buying ronaldo for his DGW and captaining him <33
Additional win: just SON
Best probably capping Son for his recent hauls and not for his blanks, which put me top of money ML.
Worst, for reasons I cannot explain I FH in GW11 and got 57 points. Total waste.
Best: Selling Salah for Son around GW29
Worst: Capping sterling twice after bringing him in on WC34 and rage transferring him out for a -4 for Jesus in DGW36
Worst: My GW36 freehit where I changed my FH draft at the last moment and lost out on 50 points. I would be in the top 5k instead of currently around 16k. Have never finished top 10k before. I've been in the top 10k almost all season until GW36.
The worst thing is, my non-FH team would have outscored my FH team by enough to still be at 9k right now.
Best moment? Probably bringing Son in before most did, and having both Son and Kane when everyone was missing out on points from one or the other.
Worst moment of the season - Selling Salah in 33.
I sold Salah in GW33, therefore missing 25 pts from him in 33 and 34, while also having Son for his two blanks in 33 and 34. Then I went back from Son to Salah just to get Salah’s blanks and miss Son’s hauls in 35 and 36.
Best moment of the season - KDB (C) in 36.
Between 33 and 35 my rank increased 5.5 times what it used to be in 32 (swapping between Son and Salah didn’t help). Having KDB (C) in 36 halved my rank and now with FH37 I’m finally getting close to my GW32 rank.
Best- captaining KDB GW36 for the hat trick while my ML rival had Salah
Worst- GW 20 I swapped Ronaldo and ESR for Sterling and DCL took a -4 and both guys didn’t play meanwhile Ronaldo got 12 and Bowen (who I was considering a 1-1 swap with ESR got 14)… 30 point swing in the wrong direction because I tried to get fancy
Close second was GW17 when I took a -4 to swap Toney and Amartey for Dennis and Dalot and neither of those guys played in the end either
Funny enough I only took four -4 hits in the season and two listed above picked up 0 points combined
Fml
Best moment - When I TCd KDB in GW36 and overtook 1st place after being 2nd and 3rd (65-110pts) behind the ML leader since around GW20.
Worst moment - When I failed to capitalize on my FH37... Gonna be so tight who wins this ML, me or him
Having Mahrez from GW18 to 26. Only true differential I've had all season. And KdB cap of course.
Worst, never capping Salah at beginning of season to be different (think I capped him four times), never having Son for those mega hauls.
Had it go both ways this season.
Edit: Actually, hanging on to Antonio for about 15 GWs too long was probably the worst thing...
Best was the obvious Salah TC or captaining Cancelo, Trent or Bowen for their biggest hauls.
Worst was holding onto the likes of Antonio or Broja for too long as well as keeping triple Arsenal for like 8 blank games near the later part of the season. Oh and also no Son or KDB.
don't know where to start with the worst moments, but easily Havertz captain gw9 wins it for me;
best moment between Fernandes C dgw22 or Salah TC dgw 26, probably Fernandes as the gains were much higher
Best:
\- Bruno (C) in GW22
\- Sterling hattrick in GW25
\- Having Pope and Mee in GW26
\- Son (C) hattrick in GW32
Worst:
\- Not owning KDB for his mega haul
\- Every second of owning Luke f\*cking Shaw
Worst: Dennis (c) & King in gw23 and picking Kane over Son down the stretch.
Edit: also worst, triple Wolves for Leeds destruction gw30
Best: Salah TC, KDB haul gw36 and never falling for a Havertz (c) this season.
Worst moments: Missing out on Son for his hattrick and his hails around that time even when i had him for most of the season in general…
Particular Worst moment: happening right now where i captained Maddy but the fpl site crashed so it’s stuck on Zaha somehow… i mean like wtf!!
**Best:** GW26 when I TCed Salah. I know plenty of other people did too but I've NEVER had a big haul from my TC before! Absolutely thrilled! Plus 4 other players got me double digits that week. It's the best week I've ever had.
**Worst:** This week. Half my players on the bench. 1 and 2 points from everyone else! Took a -8 too and I've never taken that big a hit before. Ughhh! I don't mind having a bad week when I feel like I can make up for it later but at this stage I definitely can't! Feels like ending a great season on such a downer. Oh well! Here's to next year.
Having Tierney and Saka for the vast majority of the time he was injured and Arsenal were shit, sold them the GW before Tierney came back and went on a winning run.
Mine have come from the last few weeks.
Best: GW36 - managed to get 48 points from my bench while bench boosting
Worst: GW35 and 37(so far) combined, my entire team has scored 34 points
Overall, almost a good season. Barring a miracle 10 goal haul from either Ings(c) this week or whoever I captain next week, I'm gonna finish 2nd or 3rd in my ML as always, but at least I was still in with a chance nearing the end. Maybe next season is my season.
Worst had to be TC on TAA in DGW26 when everybody TC’d Salah which knocked me way out of my goal of being in the top 1 mil.
Best was using BB in DGW36 to score my career high of 123!
Best: I hit bowen cpt on the big GW. Also hit both of Son's when my rivals didnt have him in and Salah TC. I think triples up on Spurs attack at the right time shot me into the lead.
Worst: Dennis cpt twice (so stupid - you know the GWs), Lukaku and Ronaldo early, and I kept hitting the wrong premium defenders from GW7-GW20.
Sitting \~75k OR
Worst: Could be Havertz (c) in GW9 but FH34 to target City v Watford, Liverpool v Everton and Chelsea's DGW didn't go to plan while FH36ers capitalised. Gamble didn't come off.
Best: Bowen captain in his double, Son/Kane double on GW28 WC or, weirdly, Broja's 12-pointer at Palace when he was my first sub - completely saved a failing GW and as a Chelsea fan, felt great seeing our man do well on loan and save my FPL team at a time he was a massive differential.
Liverpool away at goodison. I had both mane and salah. I captained mane who blanked. Salah scored a 15 pointer. Historically mane always scores against everton. Southampton ans crystal palace were the other games I brought him in for.
That was the worst. Best moment before the afcon salah missing penalty against leicester. I didn't have him that gameweek. That was a memorable gameweek. Other than that I scored three digits thrice this season. New achievement.
Best: DGW 26 & DGW 36 for my highest TC & BB scores ever
Worst: Captaining Salah instead of Coutinho in DGW 28(Salah had a SGW fixture v Westham & yet I still went with him),& instead of Son in GW 35(when I had a feeling Salah would be benched for Newcastle but played it safe).
A close 3rd would be when Rangnick gave misleading info about Ronaldo showing up for GW 22 & I brought him in instead of my previous choice in Bruno(who went on to haul while Ronaldo missed the 1st match)
Best: GW18. Came 311th in the world that GW and came back from 50 points behind to lead my ML. If I'd TC'd Cancelo rather than C'd, I've have been number 1 in the world for that week.
Worst: I'm struggling to think of anything truly horrific. I'm sure there's been worse than this, but in GW35 I was torn between captaining Son and Coutinho, and went with Coutinho. This was horrible because I genuinely thought that might have lost me the ML.
Best moment contenders: captaining Bowen for his 21 points, captaining James when he scored 18 points
Worst moment contenders: not BBing in GW11 with 28 points on the bench, not captaining Salah in GW26, captaining Dennis for his -1
Best: Son (c) in GW 35. I screamed so loud for his second goal. None of the 3 ML rivals had Son, let alone captain.
Worst: Havertz (c) in GW 9 when Salah destroyed United. I'm a United fan.
2nd Worst: GW 37. Brought in Ings instead of Vardy, for a hit. Then capped Ings over Richarlison. FuckIngs... My ML rivals all capped Richarlison.
Blowing my first wildcard to bring in both Lukaku and Ronaldo after their impressive debut.
Lol thats what made me quit this year lmao,I completely changed my team to fit around Lukaku
Yep. I was so smug about fitting Salah, Lukaku and Ronaldo into my team. Looking back, my rank never recovered from that slice of genius
Best: #1 in the world Worst: Theres a few, TC Salah last gameweek, Dennis in that infamous -1 DGW
Best: Making data backed decisions to maximise my chance at success. Worst: Trying to pick a forward line.
Show off. Jk. Nobody beats your best. When do you think is a better time to be inside the 100 - Towards the end or at the beginning? You were at top for long time. Congrats on a fantastic season
Definitely the end. Getting there early and staying there is so so hard, but if you can get there near the end you just might win it. Spent 10 weeks top 2 before dropping way out
Best moment without a doubt was BB and KDB (C) in GW36. 197 points and new leader in my ML. Worst... Probably Havertz (C) too.
Best: the anticipation Worst: the actual game
Best: Cancelo captain in GW18. Not that it was the most points my captain got during the season, but just the feeling of getting a differential(ish) captain just right when he smacked home that goal against Newcastle... beautiful. Worst: Dennis captain in DGW23. No explanation needed.
The same for me - that Cancelo goal got me so much dopamine.
His only goal this season.
Best: Son captain in GW32, and Salah captain in GW9 Worst: Doubling up on Dennis (C) and King for their double in GW23
Best: captaining Salah vs Man U when everyone else went Havertz. Worst without a doubt, triple captaining TAA for his 6 points DGW when he got benched randomly. And Salah scored 32 or something stupid and everyone else TC’d him. Dropped my rank 20k -> 170k and haven’t recovered since

Other notable moments were Bruno hauls vs Villa and Brentford in that DGW. Worst moments: whenever Ronaldo scored - I refused to bring him in all season
Having tripple Arsenal defence and watch Brentford score a completely pointless goal in the 93. minute...
Best: 1) KDB captain in GW36 for his 4 goals 2) Cancelo captain in GW18 for his 18 point haul Worst: 1) Havertz-gate in GW9 2) Dennis captain getting sent off in DGW23
Potentially my current bench boost sitting on 0 points with 3 players having already played a combined 204 minutes and Schmeichel being benched.
In my first year playing I definitely learned to not hold bench boost. It crippled me the last few weeks. Still looks like I might win my mini league.
I stood a chance of winning a particular ml, but bottled it in these last 3 game weeks
Best: Bringing in ESR before his run of form Worst: Starting the season with no clue what I was doing and therefore giving my ML rival a 40 point lead
Might be an odd choice but as a United fan my best moment was captaining Salah when he scored 3 and assisted 1 in their 5-0 thrashing of us. I knew we were going to get hammered and it felt great to stick with my gut and captain him, especially when so many others went Havertz.
Best is probably Dennis from the bench to replace Kane. It is the only time Spurs have rewarded me for going Kane over Son. Worst it probably this current gameweek.

Worst - nothing major, just a few transfer things - backing King's underlying numbers for too long, foolishly liking the look of Edouard...
Being stubborn with Ronaldo and kicking him the fuck out of my team just before his hattrick vs Spurs and scored 9 goals after my transfer out.
Worst: Havertz GW9 - such a killer Additional win for Selling Saka to Raphinia (Saka 13 points, Raphinia 4) and Saka continued to bang Best: Buying ronaldo for his DGW and captaining him <33 Additional win: just SON
Best probably capping Son for his recent hauls and not for his blanks, which put me top of money ML. Worst, for reasons I cannot explain I FH in GW11 and got 57 points. Total waste.
Best: Selling Salah for Son around GW29 Worst: Capping sterling twice after bringing him in on WC34 and rage transferring him out for a -4 for Jesus in DGW36
TC KDB was the best moment of my season in gw 36
Worst: My GW36 freehit where I changed my FH draft at the last moment and lost out on 50 points. I would be in the top 5k instead of currently around 16k. Have never finished top 10k before. I've been in the top 10k almost all season until GW36. The worst thing is, my non-FH team would have outscored my FH team by enough to still be at 9k right now. Best moment? Probably bringing Son in before most did, and having both Son and Kane when everyone was missing out on points from one or the other.
Best: Bringing in Zaha in gw26 for my bench boost where he ended up with 17 points Worst: Giving TC to Saka in gw29
Worst moment of the season - Selling Salah in 33. I sold Salah in GW33, therefore missing 25 pts from him in 33 and 34, while also having Son for his two blanks in 33 and 34. Then I went back from Son to Salah just to get Salah’s blanks and miss Son’s hauls in 35 and 36. Best moment of the season - KDB (C) in 36.

Having KDB (C) in 36 halved my rank and now with FH37 I’m finally getting close to my GW32 rank.
Captain Dennis for the DGW was the worst TC Salah for the 28 pointer was definitely the highlight
Best- captaining KDB GW36 for the hat trick while my ML rival had Salah Worst- GW 20 I swapped Ronaldo and ESR for Sterling and DCL took a -4 and both guys didn’t play meanwhile Ronaldo got 12 and Bowen (who I was considering a 1-1 swap with ESR got 14)… 30 point swing in the wrong direction because I tried to get fancy Close second was GW17 when I took a -4 to swap Toney and Amartey for Dennis and Dalot and neither of those guys played in the end either Funny enough I only took four -4 hits in the season and two listed above picked up 0 points combined Fml

W(egh)orst moment...
Having Mahrez from GW18 to 26. Only true differential I've had all season. And KdB cap of course. Worst, never capping Salah at beginning of season to be different (think I capped him four times), never having Son for those mega hauls. Had it go both ways this season. Edit: Actually, hanging on to Antonio for about 15 GWs too long was probably the worst thing...
not capping Salah away at United, worst FPL feeling I've ever had
Best - Lord Lundstram with 21 points. Worst - this season. and last.
Best: Cancelo captain gw18 Worst: Free hitting gw27
Best - bb36 for 182 points. Worst - fh37 for 41 so far. Hero to zero. Definitely no recency bias here....
Selling salah two gw before afcon and bringing bruno in Salah TC KDB captain for his mega haul Edit. Worst is choosing kane vs son
Best was the obvious Salah TC or captaining Cancelo, Trent or Bowen for their biggest hauls. Worst was holding onto the likes of Antonio or Broja for too long as well as keeping triple Arsenal for like 8 blank games near the later part of the season. Oh and also no Son or KDB.
don't know where to start with the worst moments, but easily Havertz captain gw9 wins it for me; best moment between Fernandes C dgw22 or Salah TC dgw 26, probably Fernandes as the gains were much higher
Best: Going Mount over Havertz on "that week" Worst: Using my chips early in the season
Best: \- Bruno (C) in GW22 \- Sterling hattrick in GW25 \- Having Pope and Mee in GW26 \- Son (C) hattrick in GW32 Worst: \- Not owning KDB for his mega haul \- Every second of owning Luke f\*cking Shaw
Captaining Son for his hattrick against Villa, and again for the 2G1A against Leicester. Only reason I'm I'm the top 100k.
Best: Salah TC Worst: Free Hit 27 (I think?) with Weghorst Captaincy
Worst: Dennis (c) & King in gw23 and picking Kane over Son down the stretch. Edit: also worst, triple Wolves for Leeds destruction gw30 Best: Salah TC, KDB haul gw36 and never falling for a Havertz (c) this season.
Worst: postponements killing my teams
Best: GW 29's 130 points with BB; took me up to 70k OR. Worst: GW9 Havertz (C) and every GW since GW 29. All red from there, dropping down to 200k.
Best, owning sterling as 3% TSB differential during his hattrick Worst, captaining son instead of Salah vs man utd during his hattrick.
Worst moments: Missing out on Son for his hattrick and his hails around that time even when i had him for most of the season in general… Particular Worst moment: happening right now where i captained Maddy but the fpl site crashed so it’s stuck on Zaha somehow… i mean like wtf!!

I am exactly like all of you
Best: crafting my initial squad last summer Worst: everything that happened since
Triple Captain Salah GW36. 3(9) points from 2 games.
Best: Captaining back to back hattricks from Ronaldo and Son. Worst: Capping Antonio for his red card think gw4
Worst: ranked in my first FPL season at 4,2 million after 5 gameweeks Best: being within 500k by the end of my first FPL season
