    Had no one in FPL and only Siggy in UFPL hoping I don't fall too far after tonight hopefully not too many auto subs coming in!

    Giroud has been responsible for my 2 worst gameweeks this season, 1st he got sent off when I captained him, then he gets 11 points when I don't have him!

    No no no. I have both of them. Probably 9 points or so gone there

    10 I'd say. 4 for the goal, 3bps for Sturridge and 3 for the assist.

    I don't have Sturridge but seems pretty normal for that to be an FPL assist.

    How? It hit two swansea players before henderson scored.

    I really think FPL need to look at the assist rules on this game in the offseason ahead of 2015/2016. It's getting ridiculous at this stage.

    Two? I must have missed the second one if its two then thats different I thought it was just the defender attempting the clearance that hit it onto Henderson.

    It flicked another player on the way through.

    Not because of the intent or not of the deflected pass, but because a defender then cleared it and it went in of Henderbus that's not an assist to the letter of the law I think.

    I hope against hope that I finish on a pathetic 23 rather than a miserable 20....

    I don't think it should be an assist but the rules state that the defender has to significantly alter the intended destination to me he kicks the ball at about a 90% angle to where it was going which surely anyone is going to consider as changing the intended destination but I guess they can say that the intended destination is Henderson and so the defender hasn't changed it. Hopefully if they do keep it as an assist we will get one of those homepage messages telling us why!

    EDIT: just watched it again and seen the deflection from the defender closest to Sturridge no way an assist!

    Its never an assist. Sturridges pass deflects before that aswell.

    Just watched the replay again yeh totally agree no way that should be an assist! The first defender changes the direction massively!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,271 ✭✭✭✭FHFC

    My point is you could argue the deflection and how significantly it altered the direction of the pass, the deflection came just after it left his foot, in my experience FPL tend to give the benefit of the doubt in a case like that.

    But totally seperately the fact that a defender hit it off Henderson would be what makes it no assist.

    Hopefully it's all to confusing for the lads at FPL and they just confirm the points... :)

    It was enough distance to see it changed the direction a fair bit. I hope they don't say to themselves ah sure we've put it in now may as well leave it! Its not an assist lads take it off him!!!

    Dog eat dog games this one!! There have been plenty of dodgy Lukaku ones given alright I don't think it should stand but definitely wouldn't be surprised if you get to keep those points!!

    Might get a few more place out of it if the assist is taken off him.

    He must have intended to kick it off the inside of the first defenders leg as it was going about 20 yards away from Henderson!

    They really need to reconsider their understanding of what constitutes an assist!
