    A very nice 10 ponts from Azpilicueta and Hazard will see me finish on 65 for the week. Had contemplated a -4 to bring in Yaya and therefore bench Azpil - obviously glad I didn't pull the trigger.

    Thats exactly how it finished. Ivan 3, Cahill 2, Yaya, Terry, Azpi, Cech all with 1

    Cheers for that, it would have been a little too much "I told you so" if I had to quote myself :D:D

    Re Yaya getting his, I'm fairly sure that he's the first midfielder to get a bonus point from being on a scoreless losing team this year.

    But interesting to note that both Zab and Kolarov were extremely close to getting a 1 pointer as well.
    Both those city defenders had the same points as Chelsea "defender" Luis...

    I missed the second half, but I'm guessing a lot of chances created, passes completed and a few defensive interceptions were made by both Zab & Kol. That would have been something else if they managed to get a point each.

    51 pts. 23 on the bench. Hard to swallow...

    As a Silva owner it is even tougher to accept but I guess his pass completion rate, his amount of tackles, blocks, clearances, interceptions, and his key passes and big chance creations must be huge. Thought he was immense tonight despite being on the losing side...

    Will finish on 73 (-4) for the week, great result in City-Chelsea match fantasy wise and for the league overall.

    Should be on 53 after bonus. My lowest score since gameweek 7!

    Still, concentrating on league position now and actually looks like I've made a little ground in my main 2 privates.

    Anybody know why Negredo went off? Strictly tactical?
    This is the question I had. Was strongly considering bringing him in for Adebayor this week, but have to wait for news now. If it isn't an injury do we think there is much risk of him being dropped?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    38 (-4). Lowest gameweek of the season for me.

    Ouch.


    Re: Adebayor. I doubt he's injured and I doubt he'll be dropped, but sure what do I know? :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,697 ✭✭✭Danger781


    57(-4) for the week

    Without the -4 I'd have been on 1 point better off assuming I played Azpil. However I likely would have played Craig Noone instead so I'm better off with the -4.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Ouch.

    Mannone on the bench too. Apart from that my players did nothing (with the exception of Terry, Mertesacker and Suarez).

    This is my worst season in Fantasy Premier League since I started playing and ironically the one I have spent the most time on :pac:

    55 for me, really disappointed I picked Kolorav over Azpilcueta in my wildcard a few weeks back, poor decision from me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,274 ✭✭✭✭FHFC


    Just updated.

    7256 overall. Delighted. Never thought I'd get close to that high.

    Then I found this forum! ! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Inside the top 100k permanently at the end of GW for the 1st time this season. A GW rank of 84k and sitting in 97k. Thank you wildcard, thank you ever so much. The fact I was at 233k 6 days ago is now but a distant memory :D

    If I played Cahill over Bennett things could have been even sweeter but considering a Chelsea clean sheet and the mere appearance of Hazard and Yaya on top of those with extra bodies means I fall 20k on top of subs is very encouraging for continuing my charge.

    The season starts for me now!....We've never heard that before have we!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    65 (-4). Up 3k to 35,860.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Up 40k places.

    Not bad after what I thought was a poor start.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,553 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    55 (-4) points this GW, finally broke into the top 100k

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,195 ✭✭✭irish son


    55 brings me up 4k to 23k, average enough week really.

    FSA 14/15 League Championship - PreQualifier Rankings
    Average of the 80 teams entered:

    So "average" per the FPL site is 45.
    But the average of the 80 teams entered into the ranking league is 56 points*

    *Before points hits... took a random sample of 8 teams and the average points hit was 3 points (Six 4's and Two 0's)....

    Average called at 53 points

    Time for bed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    im on 1439 points not to bad

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,256 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    62 points sees me finish the week at 1467, inside the top 1000.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 262 ✭✭narfsnonsense


    75 (-4) sees me at 69,570, meaning Ive jumped just under 100K places in two weeks. Moved into first in one league and have closed the gap from 90 to 23 points off first in the money league in the last couple of months. So fairly chuffed this morning!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,229 ✭✭✭G1032


    Up roughly 36,000 places to a season high of the 134,000
    Still haven't pulled the trigger on getting RVP in but I have no choice really other than to get him. It's the only way I can make up ground in PL.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,888 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    My 65 takes me up to 250th overall.

    I've been taking a far more hands off approach than previous years so I'll try step away from it again until Friday.

    Is that a typo? I'm 1464 and only 40K odd


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,361 ✭✭✭✭km79


    70(-4) has finally seen me break into top 100k this weekend. Something was I thought was unrealistic when I languished 1.4 millionth in november :O
    Rose from 108k to 70k this week. Next target is top 50 k by end of march :-D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,256 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin

    I meant to say inside the top 1500. I'm at position 1467. I have 1547 points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,048 ✭✭✭remoteboy


    61 -4 brings me up to 1485. Hovering just outside 20,000. Small increases in all my leagues. Only exception is the pre-qualifying league for the Boards FSA league. Tough crowd.


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,239 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS


    68 for the week. Brings me to within a whisker of 100k and top of my money league

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Heh well it's just one between friends. I'm 40th in my more competitive one but I've given up on that :o

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,593 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Down from 18k to 27k. Took an 8-point hit that wasn't really necessary... Still in the cup though, miraculously!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,075 ✭✭✭tom_k


    Finished on 55 (-4). My Coleman to Evans punt just didnt work out.

    Moved up very slightly to 33k ish. Disappointing overall though...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,111 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Got an overall bump of about 700 places and just outside the top 5k. Quite surprised to go up with an aggregate GW score of 54.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    52 points with 16 points left on the bench which is hard to stomach.

    I'm pretty happy with my team now though. Getting rid of Aguero allowed me to get in Mata and Baines, so it will be interesting to see how they score over the next few weeks before I decide whether to bring Aguero back in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,111 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Double post


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,268 ✭✭✭IsMiseMyself


    Up to 12,000.

    Next up: 10,000.

    After that: THE WORLD.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,246 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Just outside the top 200k.

    Good news is that the rot has finally stopped. No injuries this week except for Evans (which is actually a relief considering it's just the one injury).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,417 ✭✭✭Miguel_Sanchez


    52 (-8) this week.

    Disappointing but at least the players I took the hits to bring in scored more than 4 each (barely).

    I'm down in all my leagues though and am currently 146k overall.

    Still in the cup though.

    52(-4), bringing RVP and Johnson in for Aguero and Wilshere worked really well, the rest of the team not so much. Dissapointing Monday night with Kolarov, Silva and Hazard not giving me any boost at all. At least Yaya didn't score:D
    517k overall:mad:, at least I am catching up in my private leagues.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 606 ✭✭✭RedPeppers


    54 this week could have been alot better had I not had Fonte and Mannone on the bench up 4k to 30k. 6 green arrows the best run of the season so happy with that


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    54 has me up to 145k. Hopefully will be back into the top 100k next week.

    IIRC you finished very high up last season? How high do you think it's possible for you to go now? I've no chance now of repeating my top 3,000 finish of least season but don't really know how high I can finish now. Currently 135,000. With only 14 GW left I'd say top 20,000 is well beyond me.

    Absolutely not. It only takes one sublime gameweek to shoot right up the rankings. I have been thinking about where I can end up but now I just focus on each GW as it comes along so that I give myself the best chance possible to finish the season well.

    I have gone from 320k(after a disastorous 2 months) at xmas to 55k now. Without posting massive scores Ive gained 5-10 pts most weeks and have green arrows 6 gws in a row. Now to decide whether to go rvp(c) this week which could see a big swing either way depending on how it goes.

    Nearly the same as myself. I was ranked 1.2 million after GW 12, up to 300k 2 weeks ago but I've dropped back to 385k this week after 49(-8).

    Yeah I finsihed in 3820 last year and struggled for the first half of the season and thought the same, but I jumped almost 100K places in the last 2 GW's, so anything is possible! Althought it obviously gets tougher the closer you get.

    Your run is much more impressive though. No disrespect to others but it is easier to get green arrows when moving through the ranks from 1m to about 500/400/300K.

    6 green arrows in a row inside 50k is great going.
