Calm down. We've only had 1 half of 1 GW

Won't stop the masses from transferring him out since he's 11m

I was very happy with my 36 from 7 until I came here....... Then I realized most of you guys had aguero captained..... There's still hope for a strong finish with ibra (c)

Fingers crossed

entropi

47 with 3 to go. Had 13 points on the bench also (couldn't have imagined Capoue getting 10).

Pics or GTFO :pac:

65 sees me at an OR of 483 which is, needless to say, my highest ever ranking. Granted, I used my BB for reasons detailed in an earlier thread (basically it's the one week you can WC and BB at the same time -- I just had to make sure my players all started!). Got an extra 16 points for it (thank you Pulisball), and it could have been better if Burnley had held on.

Valencia, Firmino and Hazard to go.

Doubt anyone is transferring out a Spurs attacker ahead of Palace H

Snodgrass (TC)

Edit: Snodgrass' 10 points x 3 gives you 30 points. There's no further combo of 3 players that gives you another 39 points.

37 with 5 to play...not too bad I guess. Hoping Ibra/Payet/Firmino score big tomorrow. Firmino in particular.

61 points with 2 left to play, Capoue on bench.

Joined the boards.ie league this evening, I assume i'll start a week behind ?

Mr.Prodston

I'm sure FHFC is enjoying Match of the Day :pac:

GetWithIt

Felt Linekar should have gone full mankini

Paully D

38 points with Amat and Capoue on the bench.

Disappointed at going with Deulofeu over Lamela (which was a straight shootout morning decision) but all things considered I'm delighted with that start as I was never going to start the aforementioned over the players I did start. I will hopefully get a price rise from them too.

Redmond scoring while Tadic and Long blanked is frustrating, but Tadic created more chances than any other player this week so far.

Terry, Shaw, Hazard and Ibrahimovic to come.

Thatsfootball

Happy enough with a 49, although having Lamela, Capoue (although wouldn't have played anyway) and Foster too on the bench didn't help

Understandably but I would say it was the wiser decision.

Lamela didn't look like scoring at all; but took his chance well.

Deulofeu started up front and sparked throughout; just couldn't finish his chances.

39 with Shaw, Terry, Hazard and Zlatan still to play. Happy enough I suppose. Foster on the bench though :mad:

FPL site down. Great :rolleyes:... Every single time they fùcking change it :mad:.

And I'm about to leave for a 2 weeks east european road trip.


If site gets back alive, can anyone tell me the good cheap 3-way rotations for defenders. Did not have time to look for it.

East European road trip stage 1. Heilbronn, Germany.

45 pts with Valencia, Hazard, Firmino & Ibra to go. Looks average from what I've seen in the FSA Prem'...

Was questioning in my last post of last season the benefit of the chips and I can safely say now es ist ein beschissener System! Scheiße :mad:!!! Bench boost my arse! Jaku, Capoue, McAuley, Amat. 25 pts. I already know from last year experience I won't beat it :rolleyes:... And I did get Capoue because FFS had him in the pre-season on-form players. Ahah should have played the stupid BB for the laugh! And what a laugh I'd be having right now...

Did not dare doubling up on Pulis (hopefully he's back after a medicore last season) and played the home side (Friend) instead of Swansea who had a good away fixture but since I did not follow anything FPL-related lately and had my time this morning cut by the site breakdown... Ah well, season starts too early for me anyway, have no time for FPL before September, they should create a new chip for me "top 10k start from whatever 1st GW in September" :pac:. What? It's not much more stupid than their useless luckfull game-imbalance trio they implemented last season :mad: .

By the way, big thanks to DarraghF197 whose adviced helped me confirm and make the final choice for my 3-way rotation at the back. The pts are on the bench this week but at least it means it's a promising combo :cool:.

44 (no hits) with 5 to play.

23 on the bench though from my 3 outfield players. Ho hum.

Average was 23
It's way above average especially with those 4 players left

Great restraint Kev! On both the no hits and keeping your TC front.

Haha I know but 45 with those 4 players left is not average it's a very good score

Mr.Prodston

Townsend was on the left today.

Cutting in from the left and shooting from the right is not good. At least when he uses his left foot he has a chance. Pardew had best cop himself on!

But it's not very good compared to the rest of the scores in the FSA Prem League though, that's what he said and that's his standard.

Am I missing the joke? :pac:

All I remember from his Spurs days is him running down into dark alleys with no way out. I did get on board with Newcastle last year which was an inspired shout but I can't say I've watched him much in the past few years :pac:

He is completely left footed !
Although as I type he has hit one of his right LOL

COH

46 with Hazard, Firmino & Valencia to play...

Disappointed with Vardy & decision to go with Alli over Lamela. Fingers crossed Zlatan blanks tomorrow
