Final Position,Team Value and No of Transfers for the season.

With the last gameweek having finished, I thought I'd get this thread created. I'm sure many will wait until their overall rank has been finalised which is fine but it's no harm to have it set up anyway

Think after a seasons toil it's worthwhile reflecting on your performance,looks like I'm going to finish around 110 k, with a current Team Value of 108m and 58 transfers.
Am happy enough with final standing as don't spend an excessive amount of time on FF,lost out on some money today though,pipped at the post in a few money bets.
Biggest cost to me was taking too many hits that didnt work out in long run,will make less transfers next season if possible.Found this forum very helpful anytime I looked in during the season,so have a good summer off everyone and see you all in August:)

Thats unreal! Transfers is the tie breaker who is above who in the table?

AdpRo

I'd say that's why they have the same finish position, probably no 2nd tie breaker after transfers.

Would 37 not be the one sneaky hit? That or a very badass just 1 wildcard played!

EDIT: 37 is three hits actually! Guess you don't be using that GW38 FT much!

I just went to my transfer history and counted my transfers manually. Had 19 in gw4 which I presume was the wildcard. Don't remember taking a 72 point hit.

A good start with a great ending to the season for me, but the middle of the season really let me down. Made way too many transfers and my season drastically improved when I stopped taking hits and made a lot less transfers.

Ah I see. If you go to the main team screen and have a look at the bottom it says how many transfers you made. Fair play for counting them all thats commitment!

A canny season but one that still leaves me with a sense of what might have been after floating from 200th/300th overall from weeks 18-22 but then bombing with the January wildcard which gave me a low of just inside 10,000 overall towards the end before I was finally able to rescue it in the last 4 gameweeks.

Pelle and Eriksen instead of Kane and Silva is the decision that will haunt me for a long time. I genuinely think I'd have stayed in the top 1,000 or extremely close to it for the duration of the season if I hadn't made that move.

Was in the top 1k at one point during the season but neglected my team for a few weeks which cost me big time. Fell to 22k but managed 3 green arrows to finish the season so that's something to be pleased about I suppose even if a top 10k finish was well within reach.

Benimar

Final Overall Ranking: 955th

Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank): 103.7m

Total Transfers: 39 (4 hits)

Your Best Transfer(s): Aguero in for Spurs (H) - a 38 point captain. Also starting with Fabregas and flipping to Hazard at the right time.

Your Worst Transfer(s): Debuchy or Naughton, both injured in their 1st game after being 'signed'

Highlight of the Season: Winning my 2 main MLs but most importantly finishing in the top 1k for the 1st time

Lowlight of the Season: Post Christmas. I was 214th at the end of GW17. 5 consecutive red arrows later I was 4,148th. I know its not much of a lowlight, but I did feel that the wheels were coming off at that point.

What Have You Learned from this Season: Not really learned, just confirmed the importance of patience. NEVER make transfers on a saturday or sunday night. Emotions are too high and bad decisions are made.

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: Baby No2 due to arrive early season so I think a big step back will be made. A top 50k finish would be good.

Your Best Transfer(s): Di maria to sanchez when di maria was in form and sanchez had yet to take off

Your Worst Transfer(s): wildcarding for gw 3 and taking out costa

Highlight of the Season: signing walcott yesterday and him being key for winning me a grand

Lowlight of the Season: not signing ings ahead of stoke away when he scored 2 goals despite bigging him up on here. Nearly broke my foot kicking a chair when he scored 2 goals in the first 15 mins.

What Have You Learned from this Season: Try and do transfers every 2nd week. Bank a transfer and then make 2.

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: Try and make the top 1k. Ive finished top 11k the last 4 years with 2 top 2k finishes so top 1k is the goal. Id also like to be able to just get the results at 5 o clock on a sat instead of checking my phone every 2 mins.

What Have You Learned from this Season: No knee jerk transfers. Restrict the amount of hits taken.

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: Defend the FPL Academy Team Cup. Win my money league. Promotion to FSA Championship and top 10K finish.

Benimar

I tend to keep track of my moves throughout the year (sad I know!) so here are a few stats I came up with. All fairly meaningless I know but thought I'd stick it up anyway:

Total players used: 58 (8GK, 20DEF, 18MID, 12FOR)
Points per position:
GK - 156. Highest individual scorer was Heaton with 36 (I rotate keepers)
DEF - 457 HS was Bertrand with 62
MID - 773 + 21 Capt points = 794 HS was Sanchez (123 + 10 Capt points)
FOR - 641 + 263 Capt points = 904 HS was Aguero (178 + 113 Capt points)
Hits - 16

I captained 33 forwards and 5 midfielders. Captained Aguero 14 times.

I played 3-4-3 32 times, 3-5-2 3 times, 4-4-2 twice and 4-3-3 once.

Mr.Prodston

Final Overall Ranking: 14,957

Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank): 105

Total Transfers: 48

Your Best Transfer(s): Pelle in GW4 just as he was embarking on that run, beginning with his 2 against Newcastle

Your Worst Transfer(s): - Kevin Nolan and RVP in that one week of early madness, Azpili over Terry when I wildcarded before the winter madness and Andrej Kramaric for Leicester's DGW

Highlight of the Season: Captaining PVA for the DGW 37, the fact everyone here was rooting for me because of my madness made it even better. Naww you guys #TotesEmosh

Lowlight of the Season: January, February, March, April

What Have You Learned from this Season: When things start to go wrong midseason and everyone has the same team and players just ride it out and sit in the peloton. You'll get your chances to leap forward and I'm at my best in this game in the final 2 months when a chase truly begins. I just need to still be within touching distance.

Also it's not as easy as I thought to be sitting so high up around 1k-5k, especially for somebody like myself with itchy fingers, hence the paragraph above

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: Win the game obviously Every season is different. Top 10k and work from there.

the incredible pudding

Final Overall Ranking:
7,473
Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank):
105.9 (.5)
Total Transfers:
43

Your Best Transfer(s):
Getting in Walters the week of his hat-trick was the biggest single week one, he did very little for the few weeks after that mind. Silva was probably the best differential for my private league over the past 10 weeks or so, I reckon his returns almost won it for me single-handedly and kick started a nice finishing run where i saw green arrows for 13 of the subsequent 16 gameweeks.

I'll also always have a lot of time for Charlie Austin now too, great little player.

Your Worst Transfer(s):
Many of these, Getting in both Gibson and Naughton only to have them both ruled out for the rest of the season that week was an annoying one.
Falcao and Jovetic was a terrible punts early one, I'd consider both Pelle and Tadic to be pure failures for me too but it served me right for getting them in a bandwagony way after the Sunderland rout.

If i had to choose one I'd probably go for Falcao due to his price and potential.

(edit: taking sanchez out accidently and spending 4 points to immediately get him back in again was also a pretty bad transfer!)

Highlight of the Season:
Walters' hat-trick was nice, finishing in the top 10k after being very, very far away from it at the midpoint of the season was a nice plus.


Lowlight of the Season:
First wildcard was a mess, I'd hoped to get some value in my team but at that stage none of the sites had remotely accurate predictions. I wound up keeping numerous players who i had no intention of keeping purely out of wanting to benefit from their potential rises the subsequent week. I plumetted the subsequent weeks until i hit the low of around the 500k mark, it took a while to get a good run going where i felt the balance was right in the team.


What Have You Learned from this Season:
Sometimes you'll pick the wrong player for a position in the right team (ivan vs terry, bruce vs mcshane etc.) It happens and you just have to get over it and be aware that you picked the right team.

Goalkeeping rotation is tricky, getting it right is definitely worth more than having just the one good keeper but it's f**king frustrating when you get it wrong and perhaps not worth the stress! My heaton-panti combo really worked out for the past few weeks though.


Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016:
Top 10k again, it should always be my minimum expectation I feel even though the game has gotten a lot more competitive I feel.Maybe enter a couple more pay leagues to make the stress worth it.
After the high of getting to the 1k mark last year it was always going to be hard to do better. Maybe holding off such an early wildcard would be smart, waiting for the second two week break instead of the first would be a start!

Final Overall Ranking: 1590

Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank): 105.0m

Total Transfers: 43

Your Best Transfer(s): Siggy and Sterling out for Hazard(c) and Downing(-4) in GW10

Your Worst Transfer(s): Giroud and Sterling out for Defoe and Sanchez(c)(-4) in GW25. I really should have swallowed my pride and at least got Kane in over Defoe

Highlight of the Season: Going 90th in the world in GW17 after Austin(c) hatty and Terry's first 15 pointer of the season

Lowlight of the Season: DGW31 owning no DGWers and dropping over 50 points to some rivals. It's even worse because I sold Austin for Costa the day before the DGW was announced

What Have You Learned from this Season: Don't make early transfers. Play my own game and don't be obsessed with ownership and captaincy stats (at least until the end). Don't try and be too clever in terms of selling cheap, in form players.

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: I'd love to finish top 1k, win the Boards Pay league, and win promotion from FSA League 2. I'll be defending my dissertation in October, but I'm sure I'll still be using this as a writing/sanity break

Final Overall Ranking: 9152

Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank): £107.5m (£106.4m + £1.1m)

Total Transfers: 44 (36 pts hit: 5x4 + 2x8)

Your Best Transfer(s): Silva & Terry before Christmas ; Cazorla during Jan WC and for my only great (GW23) captain call of the season. Also Fabregas early and switching to Hazard at the right time. I also managed pretty well my GKs this year: I limited the wasted pts on the bench and my overall approach and patience got rewarded.

Your Worst Transfer(s): The fantastic 4: Baines, Zab, Jones, Bertrand each successively and respectively for their crapest FPL period in their entire life.
To a lesser extent, Ramsey for DGW37 and his GW38 cameo could have ruined my end of season push of 7 green arrows in a row and denied me a hardly acquired 4 digits finish. Fortunately he "only" could have...

Highlight of the Season: To make the top10k after such a tough tough season where I never seemed to make the right choices at the right time (bar my final push).

Lowlight of the Season: Ignoring DGW31 & overall my consistent captain failures (though Agüero 4 times out of the last 6 GWs - the other 2 being the most popular DGW choice - salvaged it all by himself).

What Have You Learned from this Season: There's no right or wrong strategies, at times playing it safe will work, at other times taking hits e.g. to rearrange your team will pay too. But always keep a cool head and never forget this is a marathon not a sprint.
My season could actually be a pedagogical tutorial for a rookie : there's the overall achievement of fighting it out till the end and succeeding to reach the objective but there's also several examples of what not to do .

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: 4th finish in a row in top 20k. 2nd in a row in top 10k. Next year top 1k will be my start of season aim with a secondary top 5k target.

Lemlin

Final Overall Ranking: 16,299

Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank): 104.9 million and 0.7 million in the bank.

Total Transfers: 39.

Your Best Transfer(s): GW 10 - Duff to Chambers. GW 13 - Pelle to Austin.

Your Worst Transfer(s): GW 18 - Green to Hart. GW 23 - Kane to Pelle and Silva to Di Maria. GW 27 - Terry to Wolly. GW 28 - Jones to Bertrand.

Highlight of the Season: Very few highlights in terms of the game. I did win my cash leagues though and that's the main aim.

Lowlight of the Season: The amount of transfer errors I made. Was in the top 5k when I played my wildcard in January and it all went downhill from there.

What Have You Learned from this Season: Don't chase differentials or overthink the game. Stick with tried and tested players.

Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016: Top 1k finish.

Final Team Value (Value + Money In The Bank): 105.5

Total Transfers: 42

Your Best Transfer(s): GW 17 - Oscar and Duff out, Silva and Zabaleta in. Silva got 30 points in 2 GWs, and I went from 2.7k to top 700 OR.

Your Worst Transfer(s): Maybe it's because it's the most recent, by switching Kane out for Cisse this week cost me top 5k finish.

Highlight of the Season: Achieving my aim of a top 10k finish.
For pure entertainment, the week that Aguero scored 4. I captained Costa, he didn't play and Aguero got the captaincy. To top it all off, Boyd subbed in with 8 points. Think that was the week he was christened SGB!

Lowlight of the Season: My WC. Wheels came off my season with that.

What Have You Learned from this Season:
- I do better when I play it safe and conservative. It may be boring, but ultimately I do better!
- A lot of things are about a balance. I felt that quite a few times I trusted my gut and it worked out. But also, sometimes you have to use your head (for example if someone has a massive captaincy percentage in a particular week) and follow the crowd.
- DGWs: again I think a balanced approach works (for me at least). It's important to have yourself covered with some DGW players, but investing heavily in them might not work out in the long run (unless your have a WC to sort it out down the line).
- WC: I'm going to try and keep my WC as late as possible in the year. It should be possible to be in a decent position with 7/8 GWs to go, and a WC at that point could be really helpful.


Aims and Expectations for 2015/2016:[/QUOTE] I think finishing in the top 10k is a good achievement, so I'll just be aiming for that again next year!
