    119 points here, Kane, Aguero, Ivan and Neil Taylor would want to up their game a bit, could have been so much better:P sorry:o

    119 pts. Thats very up there. The highest before KO was 111.

    Kudos Sir.

    Some score your Philips move was a great one. I backed out of doing it myself walters to Philips and use Philips as my cheapie going forward but play him this week.

    Fook me. I honestly thought people were making a mistake investing too much in the DGW. Congrats to everyone who rolled the dice. I can only say that not crying into my laptop because none of my private league rivals did either.

    looks like austin might get 1 bps - that will make some folk here happy.....

    I chose Sinclair instead of Philips end week on 73

    89 points with 3x1 pointers and 3x2 pointers!
    80 points from the other 5!
    Bellerin benched for Hutton.
    Finally a green arrow after all these weeks

    It has worked a dream, I needed to downgrade a mid because I was fed up of making decisions, this was the perfect time to do it for Phillips.
    I pointed out earlier in the thread that I was very lucky that it was only Defoe I had as my third striker so it was really a no brainer to swap for either Benteke or Austin, I felt the home fixture against QPR swung it for Bents but there wasn't much between them anyway.
    Not having Silva was a positive differential this week, Bellerin only played for me because I had no strength in defence, I got a lot of breaks and it is a huge week for me.

    Unfukinbelievable.....

    Best craic is we'll all load up on the likely lads for the next DGW and they'll get shag all.

    Just saw a team on twitter with somewhere around 125 points and with a turn of 7 from GK and three defenders...

    I'm on 126(-4) with only 10 pts from keeper and 3 defenders :D

    Just looked at FFFix.

    He has been awarded it.

    I already had austin and didn't make any transfers but the two players I considered most were Sinclair and Philips. So could've been agony or ecstasy.


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


    Why the feck did I do Guzan to Green. Should have just started Panti, and would have finished on the 100pts and without a 4 pt hit. That decision cost me 5 pts overall.

    At my position in the table thats the difference of a few hundred, or even a thousand odd places.

    Some gambles work, some dont. Gonna take another 4 pt hit to probably get rid of him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,915 ✭✭✭✭menoscemo


    FFS, with no DGWers I was hoping for a 1-1 tonight with 2 own goals (no assists).

    Dreading to see how much my OR drops :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,042 ✭✭✭zl1whqvjs75cdy


    Could have been way worse.

    Finished on 88 myself. You have opened up a sizable gap on me now. As we tend to always be neck and neck I'm hoping it's a case of me catching up with you rather than you dropping back the rankings to me.

    109 points after bonus!

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


    Personally I didn't think this DGW would be even worth bothering with. How wrong I was!

    54 points overall for me. 9, soon to be 10 weeks of red arrows in the last 12 and a gradual drop from mid 200's overall to around 4,000. **** knows where I'll end up after that disaster tonight.

    Ugh.

    Did you take a hit or did you have two transfers? I didn't bother with any doublers. Austin and Benteke were all that would interest me and I'm already happy with Kane, Aguero and Costa.

    Lads like Tom Ince and Kevin Nolan last year showed me that DGWs don't always mean extra points!

    Why was I happy!? Fair play to those who stacked up on the DGWers. I just didn't see the value last week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Austin into 40/1!

    Austin into 40/1!


    It's a mad bet, but so was Costa Rica to qualify out of there group at 50/1!


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


    Austin into 40/1!

    Feck it. I just put my last free €5 bet on it. Why not? :D

    it was hard to sell any of your strikers. Phillips due to the layout of your squad was probably in hindsight the move you couldve made.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,970 ✭✭✭mufcboy1999


    Always captain a dgw player, that is the lesson to be learned. Thats the second time this season I've been burned. gw34 150 % a chelsea player is getting the armband :mad::mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,369 ✭✭✭the incredible pudding


    Came very close to switching out aguero for Benteke, which would have meant keeping Bellerin and thus netting myself another 30 points or so but I can't say i'm too upset with the score of 89. Still though, to think of what could have been! Hearing that Debuchy returned to training was by far the worst thing to happen to me last week!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,463 ✭✭✭OneColdHand


    So I'll end of 71. FPL discovery is saying the top 10k avg is 67, so I'm quite happy with 71, considering the extremes of scores this week. Should be my first green arrow after 8 reds.

    High: captaining Austin
    Low: transferring out Sanchez for Mane - ouch!

    I was ranked 200k 3 weeks ago then had 2 awful weeks and dropped to 350k overall.

    100 points this week and I'm up to 190k now.

    An odd game at times!!
    95. Gets me from about 19k at the start of the GW to under 8k. Probably my best week of the season and all down to one decision, Benteke captain.

    Apologies to those without Austin or Benteke or Philips - I appreciate it hurts.

    How comes you guys post your ranks when mine is not updated yet:confused:
