Gameweek 10 Match-day Thread.

Scorpion Sting

85 points sees me up from 8k to 2.4k, absolutely delighted. 4 green arrows in a row and now the main aim is to break into that elusive top 1k for the first time.

wonski

Was really waiting for this:D

A slight drop after tonight but (overall) jump from 2226th to 364th.
34th in Ireland.

Can you imagine I just got promoted at work, too? This afternoon:D

Working all the evenings and weekends when some of you watched the games finally paid off. The bad news is I still have to do it, but at least I get paid for it.

Happy days.

FHFC

95
GW rank 5,494
Overall 4,066

Both highest ever.

It's all downhill from here.

I never do, but i will:D One of those days when you laugh all the time:D

Neoulous

76 pts.
GW rank just outside top 100k.
Overall rank ~25k.

WC worked a treat . Last win captain change from Sanchez to Costa is a regret but delighted anyway.

Fair play wonski, good to see a league 2 H2H'er making a fist of it, even if you've knocked me back into 3rd spot. Congrats on the promotion as well.

It's strange that I'm still well within the top 10k and I feel like I'm in freefall. The only time i got a decent score from my captain all season was GW 8, when it changed to Aguero after Costa didn't play.

Still, my aim before the season was 50 - 60 pts per week. This week I got 54, and am sitting in 8097th place.

Fantasy football is a strange mistress!

dahat

Settled at 13k,dropped from 9k but pleased.

Two rash transfers this week have left me with no goalkeeper for gw11 unless I go to a minus 8. Reckon I'd he better off with 10 playing than another hit.

Thanks.

One good week can make a big difference.

I am about to frame my rank - only a matter of time when I go back to the "suburbs".

Anyone sitting around 50k at this stage can make a jump to the top 100 - a bit of luck is needed, though. Bringing Sanchez last week, and Chambers this week was a highlight of my season. For an Arsenal fan it felt really good:D

Hurts me as a Gooner that I can't 100% enjoy Sanchez's non-game winning goals since I don't own him

G1032

53 points and a drop of 18,000 places to 43,500.

Lemlin

58 points. Started the week at 28k. Finish it at 37k. I'll certainly take that. On Saturday evening I was at 58k. Score wasn't as bad as I had thought.

Transfers already done for next week. First -4 of the season taken.

Given I think I'm playing you in the H2H this week I'll take that!

Necronomicon

64 leaves me in 7,900 which is slightly down overall but back up since Saturday night, so I'm happy.

Iused2likebusts

Moved from 95k yesterday to 78k after getting Taylor 6 pts off the bench very surprised with that. Up 800k places in 3 weeks my team not going to be ideal this week though so hoping to just get through this week.

Hackers

79(-4) for the week with Costa as captain so will take that gratefully! The -4 hit gave me a net gain of +8 too! Up now to 8K from 14K overall.

I think I am one of the very few with 9 green arrows in a row since Gameweek 1. See below, can't see it going on for much longer!

Same here but about 100k behind you. A miserable 51 pts drew me back to 167k though I was behind 230k on Sat eve...

Transfers done too. First 4 pts hit of the season. Let's hope noone gets injured now.

That's an impressive run. Fair play :cool:.

CSF

82 (-8) is very satisfactory especially with Costa captain.

My 4 transfers in accumulated 46 points whereas the 4 players they replaced got only 5 points (plus 1 point that would have come off the bench for Silva)

Starting to turn around an early season nightmare.

Wow :eek:! Imagine what it'd have been with Sánchez captain :P...

Bravo :cool:. What are your moves this week ?

By the way what were they (your transfers)?

FutureGuy

67 brings me to 27k. Like Lemlin, 4 point hit taken this week. Unlike Lemlin, it's the seventh of my season

I know!! Would have hit 95.

My 4 transfers were Sanchez, Chambers, Hazard and Tadic for Silva, Kelly, Di Maria and Sterling.

Mr.Prodston

Ended up on 58 points and only dropped from 10k to 16k. Phew

Benimar

Finished with 73 points. Went up 401 places

Swiper the fox

First of all, congrats on both fronts Wonski, great to hear of good things happening to fellow FSA'ers. I'd love to have had a start like that, the thing I would say to someone in your position is not to be defensive now i'd imagine it's easy in your position to view hits as a risk but I don't think you'll be able to last in those positions unless your either very lucky or not afraid to take a chance. Anyway I hope your new position (work) doesn't take up so much of your time that you won't be able to "benefit:P" from our advice.

I've moved into the top 50k from 120k last week. Like others I'm raging that I didn't captain Sanchez, I was very close to doing it, the extra 10 points would have been sweet but I certainly won't complain with 83(-4) and another win in the FSA Premier league to put me in the top 6 and only 3 points behind the leaders.

Ziegler1988

"The Argentinian's (Aguero) effort was the only goal scored by a forward with more than 4% ownership in Gameweek 10. That outcome is indicative of a trend in FPL that has seen an array of budget forwards deliver regular points hauls."

Interesting tidbit from the FPL Scout Extra
