Double Gameweek 19 Match Day thread

72 all out, with Taylor limping off denying me a clean-sheet (and Targett's clean-sheet on the bench). Relatively happy in the sense that I didn't lose any ground in my ML and a few lads didn't get a huge score off TC'ing De Bruyne.

111 74 of that in defence most surprised with vardys returns

Scorpion Sting · 21-01-2021 11:27pm

105 (-4)

Up to 36k. Grealish and Martinez to go.

Pope and Lowton. Hasn't been going my way lately so delighted to finally have something positive.

Edit: Ah missed the sarcasm haha

I missed the sarcasm too. No. I don’t get it.

Extraordinary haul, tonight, and well done. I was going to ask how has it been going because you must be pretty off template but you answered that.

It’s a good example of keeping and trusting your budget defenders because you never know where the clean sheets will come. Obviously Pope isn’t a cheapie though.

Not many teams have better cheap defenders than Burnley. Will be interesting to see where Tarkowski is next season. I’d imagine that deal has already been signed.

75 (-4) with Watkins and Martinez to go. My Sterling TC choice saved me big time. Little else went right and my biggest mistake looks to be going Watkins over Antonio, unless the former does something special against Newcastle.

141(-4).

Martinez to play. 30(-4) from the bench boost so far.

The kind of week when doing something as blatantly stupid as having no Liverpool players for their DGW can now be claimed as genius.

Projected to be around 580k OR which is not far off a 1m green arrow this week. 1.5m up over the blank and double. 2.25m up in the last 4 GWs.

Nosebleed!

108 with Targett and El Ghazi still to play. Delighted with the score but pretty bummed I missed the deadline with a savage hangover and forgetting to replace Adams with Antonio which was my plan all week. Oh well, can't complain!

Up past 500k for the first time after a terrible start.

Savage stuff man!

Huge rank jump.

I'd a small 20k green arrow after that mess to 340k.

Watkins to go.

I had 9 DGW players. My only player to get returns in both games was Dias.

Salah and Soucek blanked in boths along with Bamford for his single.

Can't say I'm expecting much from Grealish, Wilson or Martinez. They need to get 16 between them to get to the tonne

Benimar · 22-01-2021 10:22am

This week has bee like walking through mud.

I had 21 players (until Johnstone decided not to start one game) and with Grealish left I'm on 86 points.

1 goal and 5 assists is my full return, with Dias my top scorer.

The only consolation is that I didn't use a chip. BB would be 8 + Martinez and my TC choices were Salah, Fernandes or KDB.

Not taking the -4 for Adams to Antonio (as I wanted to start Bamford) will haunt me, especially as I'm almost certain to take that hit this week :mad:

In a similar situation. Didn't do Wilson to Antonio because of the Newcastle double. Held off on BB which would have gotten me 5 points.

Only good thing I did was captaining Sterling over Salah

Still have my TC, BB and WC.

hawaii501 · 22-01-2021 12:21pm

I've decided I'm better without these chips, gets me overthinking the situations!!

Had planned the double GW grand(I thought)and then the leeds-saints game gets called off. Forced me into thinking a Salah TC might be of use to stay at the top of my ML. Somehow only lost ground of 10pts so far which is a saving grace

Brutal week of 72 with Grealish & Wilson left....

Looking at building for DGW 26, hopefully not using the transfer that week, dead end to BGW29. WC 30, FH 33. Use my TC on one of the DGWs around then, or the earlier City ones.

Don’t really see the play to WC in 25, leaves you stuck with 29 as a major problem

How soon will we have confirmation on fixtures for DGW 26 ? or do we already know ?
