GW 29 Matchday thread

iroced

77 with Dawson to go. Almost feels like a "bad" GW (Simpson saved it somehow - his pts were much needed).

Missus on 83 with an unchanged team and Vardy (C) :rolleyes:... Am glad for her, I really am but this sums up this weird season...

Should know better than to log in here happy with my score. Ye lot faith bring a man back down to earth.

79 with Alder to sub in will make 86.

Daniels continues to break my heart, costing me my h2h with Busts.

Good week for FSA vs casuals though. Up 130k to 297k.

Told you to keep it simple in "auto-pilot" mode . See how fast you can rise ? Glad for you. With the hectic period starting now, who knows? you could make a sensational late push .

Not as good as the Boards Pay league :P I got a red arrow in Finn Harps league with 92(-4)

Ye I think fhfc has a lot to answer for there. Apart from us fsa sharks it seems he has invited a lot of his new found FF twitter friends to join that league as well.

As annoying as Lukaku's pen miss is, had he scored, Payet possibly wouldn't have gone on to get his goal and assist

As a lukaku owner and a payet seller this week. That pen miss cost me big time a huge pts swing on a lot of my rivals. Cost me 9 pts for lukaku and it's quite possible payet would have went on to get a 2 pointer.

Payet stealing bonus off Lukaku was huge for me because my opponent captained Rom. It was a big swing for me.

I always fancied Payet this week though. Everton under Martinez are a farce at the back.

I feel embarrassed. I feel ashamed.

What I am about to tell you all disgusts me to my very core. You will not see me in the same light again.

Yesterday, around 10am I made it known that Yaya and Silva were in miserable form and that I was opting for Sigurdsson as he had superior form.

That was definitely one transfer and I had a second available to me. The smart money was on Courtois to Hart.

But the more I thought about the season the more Yaya looked tempting to me.

Yaya. No goals or assists. Makes no sense to get him in.

So I got him in. I went against stats and form and brought him in because of the two fixtures and a hatred for how these types of moves have worked out so many times in this horrible b@stard of a season.

I feel sick to my stomach as he got 10 of my 92 points.

Please forgive me for I have sinned.

Iused2likebusts

I thought yaya or silva made more sense than siggy. Although I would be more a fixtures over form type player. It didn't bother me that yaya didn't have returns in a good few weeks. He plays for a team that regularly scores 3+ goals at home and they were at home to the worst team in the league. Siggy of course was a good option but what swayed me towards a city mid is the fact that Swansea don't score many goals. If I still had my wildcard I'd have got siggy as well as a city mid as I had 2 f.ts but I need to be using my transfers on double gw players when the decision is marginal.

PARlance

What a day. Couldn't give it my full attention but was losing the run of myself checking live score from 4pm onwards. Unreal.

84 with 2 more points from PVA to come in. Thought the bugger was going to hang on.

532k to 372k.

I actually discussed this with the organiser before promoting it more widely.

We figured we could either go for the status quo where possibly the same 4 or 5 people would challenge for it every year, which could have been detrimental long term (same guy won it the first 2 years) or go down the road of trying to make it a prestigious league among the FPL shark community. There will always be a decent Harps loyal entry while the if it's a good league with a good pot you Sharks will enter every year as deep down we all believe some season we'll have that top 100 finish .

So I promoted it on FFS and through Twitter and it's a pretty elite league now.

And feckin Busts is gonna win it!:D

I must have pretty much the same team as you: also 77 with Dawson to go!

Fully agree that in a weird way it doesn't feel like a great week, even though I'm over 30 pts above the GW average, and went to the top of one of my mini leagues.

There's a guy at the top of one of my leagues. He's never played before and is 150 pts ahead of me (well, about 125 after this week). He's made the most bizarre decisions all season. He brought in Costa this week, and captained him (ahead of a blank@!). His VC? Mahrez. Of course it was. Meanwhile, for all my careful planning I have Aguero captained, he scores twice, but misses a peno, and ends up with the same points as Newbie's VC, Mahrez. Summarises this season perfectly for me.

SteelyDanJalapeno

Any stats for how many TC'd Aguero yesterday?

Having a decent old time of it this season.

94 for the week with all players played.

Overall, up to 6,492 globally. 7th in the Boards pay league. No wild card played at any time to date, and only 25 transfers made in the 29 weeks.

I fully expect it to all fall apart now after posting this. : p

Texas Jack

102 with Firmino to come

spock.

Confirmed #LFC team to face @CPFC: Mignolet, Flanagan, Lovren, Sakho, Moreno, Henderson, Can, Milner, Lallana, Firmino, Origi.

91 that brings me into the top 5k. Interesting looking at my pay leagues lots of really high scores in the harps and boards pay league. In my pay league with 7 transfer guy it's full of casuals nobody in the top 20 got over 75 bar me. Lots of 40s and 50s.

Stay quiet Firminodinho

72 with Rashford DDG and Firmino to run. I would like a brace from each outfield player a cs for DDG and a penalty save please!

Super Sunday is very boring when you've got no FPL interest in either of these games.

Don't get me wrong, I love football and would watch any Premier League game, but the added interest FPL brings is the one thing that will ultimately never stop me from playing it no matter how frustrated it makes me at times.

Not the worst when the team you're supporting is playing and you also get to cheer for Liverpool to lose

Dann booked before his goal.

It's one of the dullest Sundays in recent memory from pure football standpoint. About the only plotlines are ManU+Liverpool European push and WBA/Palace avoiding being dragged into relegation battle
