It's ok, googled him. It seems he is a homophobe, a racist and allround pathetic human. If he gets a hat-trick a day he won't be ever on my team.

If Hitler was banging in the goals for Rapid Vienna and was good value he'd be first on my teamsheet.
Your protest wont register.

21 (-4) points and GW rank of 3.2 million. Need something big from Kun(C), Sterling, Stones and Negredo.

He scored 10pts in WK2, he is ok, after that no one cares really in here.

Walcott was very lively today
I vowed not to go back after getting burned twice last year but still the memory of that massive Xmas haul is there
7.5 .......so damn tempting again..........doubt I'll get Sanchez .......Ozil is nailed on but such a boring pick .......
So my question
When Ramsey and Giroud come back does he keep his place ?

I doubt Ramsey starts next GW, but I also don't think Walcott has done enough to keep his place once Iwobi and Ramsey are fit. He'll be prime rotation once Champions League starts

I'm in the exact same boat as you, come on city

Lemlin · 28-08-2016 08:04AM

38 points. I'm another person who took Vardy out for Ibra because he was killing me.

I don't think I'll wildcard. I'm happy with my defence and strikers. Midfield is the problem child. That said, will give Redmond more time. Not sure about Spacecraft.

Double United defence is working a treat.

Stones, Evans and captain Kun to go.

Midkemia · 28-08-2016 08:29AM

51 points with Aguero (c) to go. Decent point hauls from Fabianski, Valencia and Lamela.

Winterlong · 28-08-2016 08:41AM

33 with 6 to go incl captain sergio.
Schmicheal coming off after 57 mins was a pain in the arse for me.

Dubstar07 · 28-08-2016 08:44AM

35 points with capt Kun & Stones to play. Total of 10 pts from 5 man midfield, Mahrez possibly on the block.

mcgettigan16 · 28-08-2016 09:00AM

43 points with Stones, Ramirez & captain Kun to play. 166k OR

It's not a protest. I won't be posting week after week about him. I just said he won't be in my team. Entitled to that opinion.

Nobody knows how good he will be in the EPL but you're cutting off your nose to spite your face. This is a game not a social commentary.

You are perfectly entitled to your opinion but on this forum I believe the intention and the expectation is that you do as well as you can.

On Andre Gray
Burnley have 3 home games in next 4 starting with Hull
He picked a bad time to pick up a ban from a FF point of view !

And you are entitled to be a loser in FPL which is what you'll be if you refuse to pick a player that is banging them in.

To be fair..... I finished 135k is last year and 94k the year before.... Outright refused to get agüero.

II don't think of those finishes as a losing finish.

Sorry. You win. I can't think how having Aguero could have improved those finishes.
Are you serious?

Dont be at yourself · 28-08-2016 10:17AM

I also don't have Aguero. He was outscored by 6 or 7 attackers last year, and when he picks up his inevitable injury, it's a headache trying to juggle the replacements.

The extra 3 or 4 million makes a huge difference to the overall quality of your squad; it's the difference between Baines and Friend, Lamela and Redmond, and Benteke and Diomande...

I doubt Aguero's PPG was beat by all those attackers. You're better off making the VORP argument not to own him

You can't really look at Aguero on a PPG basis because when his hamstring goes, it requires significant transfers to replace his potency in your team, and again to get him back in. So you either downgrade and keep money in the bank to get him back in, or you take a few hits to upgrade the rest of your team and reverse it when he's fit.

In contrast, it's relatively more straightforward to swap between the other premium players.

At least when I've been playing, I haven't found it difficult to move Aguero out to another striker I want and then make later FTs if I want to improve my 4th mid. Then to get him back, it's at worst a -4 assuming you can keep a good team structure. I've found it's all about being flexible and while I don't doubt Aguero can be replaced, it's not something I wish to do when my rivals all own him and are captaining him frequently.

Evans just arrived at the hawthorns on SSN I'd imagine he is starting.

Superb.

Jaysus and I was getting stick for keeping Vardy over Ibra at least I have Aguero. 35 from 8 Mahrez sickening me .

FHFC · 28-08-2016 12:38PM

It was pretty well pegged that Evans was ok and Friend very unlikely to be risked.

Thats why I took a hit to get Baines for Friend which is now confirmed as an extra FT plus 2 points gained.
