    Currently 791st overall and 46th in Ireland, on the rise after a few average weeks. I should be happy with 73 with once to go but again my choice of captain is costing me so many points.

    Clearly not doing that badly, you can't expect to get it right every time. If for example Butland was your top scorer this week, you're hardly gonna be pissed you didn't captain him and say that it cost you points?


  • Registered Users Posts: 784 ✭✭✭FrClintPower


    76 all out, Bertrand and Pellè getting me a nice top-up today.

    Up inside the top 8k for now, but with Spurs to play tomorrow and I'd imagine a few people to get Ighalo or Mahrez's points off the bench I don't reckon I'll be staying in the top 10k.

    Great position to be in for now though!

    I had Butland on the bench! Although Cech got me 7 so not a huge issue. Ah I can't complain really this week, I swapped Pelle for De Bruyen as captain last minute and I hadn't even contemplated picking Ighaloo or Marez as captain but my captains rarely get me more than 10/12 points, where as a lot of other people in my league are frequently getting 20+ off their captains which is what seems to be mainly keeping them in touch with me.

    People moaning when they're in the top 1k.

    Jesus. :rolleyes:

    Well for me I was only really considering Pelle or KDB. I went with Pelle so I just wanted him to outscore KDB for me to say I made the right choice :)
    it doesn't really bother me too much that Mahrez or Lukaku went mental because I wasn't realistically going to captain them. :P

    73 with Alderweireld left to play.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,354 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    I hope this isn't your first post here, you can't arrive in with a score like that:eek:


    If I had played Mahrez and Butland instead of Myhill and Cresswell I'd have 91, as it is I make do with 67.

    It is indeed his first.

    Not moaning really, it's just that when you do break into the top 1,000 you want to stay there and it can be a bit frustrating for me when I'm leaving valuable points behind me.

    Yeah same here, I was actually really surprised that so many had benched/sold Mahrez so the 15 points he did get was pretty huge this week.


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


    77 points, all played

    I've 2 FT's and 4.9m ITB, I'm ready for the Kane bandwagon :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,249 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    63 points for the week. Surprised that I've moved up to 56k with that.

    I spent 24 hours in the top 1k last season. It was the best 24 hours of my fantasy football career. I can appreciate his anxiety and fear of slipping out :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,656 ✭✭✭Western Pomise


    56 all out with Mahrez first sub!....ah well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 113 ✭✭First Explorer


    82 all in, gets me back within touching distance in most of my leagues, hopefully I can kick on from here. Captain was a toss up between Lukaku and De Bruyne i went with the latter based on the boards poll.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    56 all out with Mahrez first sub!....ah well.

    53 with Dier to play,like you I have Mahrez as first sub teasing me with his 15 points.

    We're all leaving valuable points behind!

    1 captain choice in 11 has got a contribution and that was the week Aguero ran riot!

    Just don't seem to be getting it right this year like players top of my pay leagues.

    But eh, when you're up there it is a diff ball.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,206 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    59 (-12) with Kane (c) to go.

    It could be very meh, or very special come 10pm tomorrow.

    Muniesa (0) ----> Nyom (5) (would've been Russell Martin playing without this transfer too).

    Mata (3) ----> Payet (2)

    Costa (2) ----> Lukaku (14)

    Sakho (0) ----> Kane (????) (would've been Surman's 2 points without the transfer)

    That has to be deemed an instant success even without whatever Kane gets. Never mind the fact I've also dealt with some long term issues in the team.

    Likely Martin out for someone next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,989 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    41 pts with Kane (c) & Alderweireld to come. I've slipped from 3k to 15k so far this week, begging for a Kane hattrick!

    Could have done without Bertand & Lukaku getting big hauls today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    64 all in. Up to 43k now :D bench looking horrible tho. Souare doubtful, both Wanyama and Martin suspended. Gonna swap out Martin for someone..maybe Moreno.

    Could be someone else's team although why he'd go to the bother of doing that is beyond me.

    Is that a triple captain on Lukaku then? Nutcase!!

    21 GW rank make more sense all right!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,088 ✭✭✭Nib


    I think it's real. How many Dom Rushes can there be?

    Fair play, that's impressive. I presume that's Ighalo on the bench? And Fonte off early. You could have done a lot better with a bit more luck.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,697 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    It is real, sure his team I'd is in the screen cap as well.


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


    Nice return on my -8 and AOA in the end leaving me on 75 (-8) and a nice rise OR of nearly 100k to 215k.

    Pity i didn't captain Lukaku but never really considered him seriously tbh. I did have it on Pelle and switched to KDB last minute as i couldn't do it to myself, which only cost me 1 pt.

    From the fotmob updates Mané seems to have missed a couple which could have made it a great week. Will leave motd2 till tomorrow.

    8 point hit gained 23 pts, 15 gain after the hit. AOA gained 13pts by playing Mahrez over Moreno. Has ti go down as a good week.

    Crap run atm and it's well timed points hits that is digging me out lately, as well as clearing deadwood out of the team....


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,710 ✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    42 points with Dier, Alderweireld and Kane (c) to go.

    Cue spurs conceding some pointless goal in the last 5 mins to cost me 2 x CS.
    ... Prob a Kane OG knowing my luck.

    Red arrows all around.

    Currently in the 2.2 million overall ranking.
    Two-point-two-million better teams then me.

    There are gw 1 zombie team a million places ahead of me.

    Not gonna lie, I went to look at his bookmarks before his team ID/info. Looks like he has good taste! :pac:
