8 team draft pay league - €50

SteelyDanJalapeno · 08-08-2017 11:42pm

My team is worth 103.5m and I'm quite reliant on Chelsea with 4!

SteelyDanJalapeno · 08-08-2017 11:42pm

My vote is winner takes all, but happy with either

Trimm Trabb · 08-08-2017 11:46pm

Speaking as someone who has Tom Ince in their team I'd go 300/100 but happy either way

Dearg81 · 08-08-2017 11:48pm

I'll vote for 300/100 but my bro hs voted for winner takes all.

Ha. My team is exactly 100m. At least I'm playing fairly lads.

I've only got one player that is in my actual FPL team and that is Jesus.

Green&Red · 08-08-2017 11:51pm

So thats three votes for each

£99m for me

I like the frontline of Mectavba the best if Nacho is fit and plays.

I don't like his midfield, thought Zaha was picked waaaaaayyyyy too early

I saw that you commented on that during the draft...look at the points he got last season and he's not too far the Ozils, Coutinhos & Pedros....and Palace were ****e for the first half of the season.

It was interesting to see the different strategies, some of the players picked in the first couple of rounds I hadnt even on my watchlist. I tried to get as many nailed-on starters (i.e. Zaha), then found myself panicking that I had no City and took Bernardo Silva!

Bernardo Silva is a class player. It will interesting to see how Pep uses him, he could take Sterlings spot or old Silvas place. Might take him a while to break into the team though.

I assume you are being sarcastic.

Bar Sturridge that is one of the better teams in the league. If for some reason Sturridge gets regular game time the you could win it.

We'll see how the season plays out but I'll be going with a 5 man defence 1st GW

We should really try and sort out if its winner takes all or 300/100 before kickoff.

I think it's 3 votes for each with 2 people still to vote.

I didn't vote. I say 300/100

SteelyDanJalapeno · 09-08-2017 11:05pm

I'm also gonna change my vote, looking back I realise 300/100 was already proposed when I joined. So I think that makes 5

09-08-2017 11:32pm

Good stuff. Sorted. Best of luck all. Except those with United players of course.

So given the ****ness of my team I've decided to offload half of it and rely on the wire. So I now have three United defender for the weekend

Green&Red · 11-08-2017 9:52am

New team is worth €98m

Lloris
Darmian-Smalling-Jones-Baines-Louvren
Boufal-Alli-The Ox
Rooney-J Rod

Could you give a very brief overview of how the wire works?

Basically you can apply to pick up any free agent, as many as you'd like every week. It creates a thing called a waiver, the order in which ur waiver is done depends on how you did the week before. So if you outscored me and we were both looking for the same player I will get him before you. And so on until all requests are processed. The waivers are done 24hrs before the deadline and after that AFAIK you're free to just pick up any player immediately

Green&Red · 12-08-2017 12:01am

Accidentally left Ramsey in my team

Happy G&R

Just realised that whenever someone does well, like Vardy last nite, then someone definitely has him. There's no chance we all decided he wasn't going to do it.

mectavba · 13-08-2017 11:05am

It's a bit crap that you can't see the scores on the league table. Do you think it will be like that for the season?

I'm on 41 just with De Gea to play.

Trimm Trabb · 13-08-2017 11:32am

18 with Pogba, Bailly, Rashford, Kane, Ritchie and Arnautovic to play.

SteelyDanJalapeno · 13-08-2017 6:32pm

55 all out with possible baps for Miki and martial

Trimm Trabb · 13-08-2017 6:44pm

Think I'm going to end up on 40.

Chesty08 · 13-08-2017 8:11pm

Think I'm ending on 41

SteelyDanJalapeno · 13-08-2017 10:19pm

Is the league not updating for anyone else?

14-08-2017 4:31am

Still not updated.

I'm on 40 points with another 14 off the bench if Bavies ever comes off it.

Green&Red · 15-08-2017 5:36pm

Smalling and Darmian not playing really f**ked my united strategy. 48pts

SteelyDanJalapeno · 15-08-2017 11:42pm

Some lucky sod has Davies subbing in with 14

I wouldn't go calling it luck.

SteelyDanJalapeno · 16-08-2017 11:59pm

Woohoo top of the league for the first and probably last time this year

Green&Red · 18-08-2017 1:46pm

So I do an american football draft with some lads, yahoo automatically gives each team a rating. Its a H2H league and they tell you how many games you'll win.

I think we should each make a prediction for top 2, we'll see how teams fare at the end of the season

1. Klopp
2. Dearg

I've another five transfers this week

The weekly waivers are a tad mad and I think I'll mostly just let my team run so I don't miss out on any points from knee jerking.

Not sure on usernames but I like 'Average' and 'Draft Punks' (using team names as don't know their boards name) for the top 2 spots.

Chesty08 · 18-08-2017 10:04pm

Haven't a clue how the waivers work, thought I had 3 in for request but must not of got any

Green&Red · 21-08-2017 10:03pm

Who are Irish Kopites? 26pts on the bench, ouch

Chesty08 · 21-08-2017 10:05pm

That's myself!

Chesty08 · 21-08-2017 10:06pm

Although happy with bringing in Richarlison who played ahead of Sterling

SteelyDanJalapeno · 21-08-2017 10:06pm

have 16 on the bench myself

Dearg81 · 21-08-2017 10:26pm

The only good thing about coming last is that I can draft in Jese :-)

Green&Red · 21-08-2017 11:50pm

Nice 60pts this week, I'm really enjoying the chopping and changing

21-08-2017 11:53pm

Damn. Was hoping he would go unoticed.

Wonder how the draft works re league positions.

Do ALL of your drafts go through before anyone else or is it one at a time I wonder ?

Green&Red · 21-08-2017 11:54pm

One at a time AFAIK. Once you picked up a player it moves onto the next player

21-08-2017 11:55pm

I thought as much as that seems fairest but ya never know.

Green&Red · 21-08-2017 11:57pm

Its a pity you can't trade with someone else

Have to say I'm happy enough having two good goalies, I'd prioritise them high next year

Green&Red · 25-08-2017 12:02pm

Walker-Peters
Fosu-Mensah
Britos
Atsu
Okaka

Changes for this week

I brought in Jese, J Rodriquez and Femenia(Watford rb). Wijnaldum is available again from next week, I'm sure he'll be snapped up by someone.

I probably have the best midfield and worst strike force in theleague so It will be interesting to see how I get on:

Mane Sanchez Mahrez Antonio Jese
Benteke J Rodriguez

I had Britos ready to pull, was gone when I came back, guessing you had him transacted before now and it kicked in at 12:30, what position are you in the league?

edit, you're ahead of me, I would have got him if I transacted, damn.

SteelyDanJalapeno · 25-08-2017 1:44pm

It's bs that your released players are locked to us until next week

Green&Red · 25-08-2017 2:24pm

Agreed, we should be able to sign any free agents today
