    How is that possible? Surely AWB or Duffy come in for Mendy, No?

    He has two different teams I think.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,685 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    82pts. F**king delighted. A terrific first WC GW. Had Hazard as vice, considered it a bit but was never overly confident in it. At least I had him.

    70 all out after the wildcard. If I hadnt touched my team I'd have 71 :mad:
    Is your team in a better or worse state going forward though?

    Why the Hhhhhmmmmmmm? I could name 4 or 5 regulars who are in no transfers allowed leagues and regularly comment on how that team is doing....
    The league i’m in is run by the lads from ‘who got the assist’ and has over 1100 in it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,675 ✭✭✭thunderdog


    38 points. Not great. Hung onto miki and walcott for too long


  • Registered Users Posts: 618 ✭✭✭breffni bogballer


    Murrays late goal plus Bennet 6 and AWB 9 coming of the bench drags me up to 50,i must be the only one struggling this year,still stuck in 1.5m


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 833 ✭✭✭SkySter


    90. The wildcard couldn't have gone much better. Very happy.

    This gives me a bit of a buffer for next week which isn't looking too good.

    Finish with 51 and 32 on the bench. One of those unlucky weeks. Robertson loses CS in the last minute. Lindelof comes off the bench for mendy for me whereas most others get awb or bennett. Benched fraser as he was supposed to be injured. Although thinking about it now i should have chanced starting him so would probably but that down as a mistake on my part. Frustrating but generally very happy with my team.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    Am I currently using the WiFi in a museum in Toronto to check in on how Cedric is playing?

    Yes I am :o

    I was reminded of something I already knew today.....Cedric will let you down.

    Never knew that was a thing !

    FFFix has me rising to 25 k which is without a doubt my best ever start to a season

    INGS can only get better for some


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,022 ✭✭✭jamesbere


    92 (-12). Very happy with this gw. Glad I went with my gut and took the hits. It definitely paid off. Up to around 300k now. Finally season is back on track


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    up from 11k to 7.2k. Delighted with that. GK continuing to score poorly a minor irk


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,170 ✭✭✭pimpmyhat


    77
    leaves me on 97k good start to the season


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,127 ✭✭✭The real mccoy 91


    Expected alot of people to be getting 9 off the bench but my 15 has jumped me up another nearly 200k places delighted up to 335k now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,288 ✭✭✭✭gammygils


    54 Haz & Capt.Kun got me points. The rest fück all. Plssed that Mendy or Shaw didn't feature. Pre WC team would have yielded 48. Still it's my 1st green arrow of the season :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,578 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    68 in the end and up to 78K. Relatively successful week, but not captaining hazard hurts a bit. That's two big hauls (haz and kun) I've not captained this seasson.

    Still though, my Capt has delivered points every gameweek so far so can't complain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,520 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    78 after Cedric's zero.

    Moved from 221k to 81k. Will take that considering I didn't have Hazard. Dropped about 20k after last night's result.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,752 ✭✭✭Thepoet85


    44 all out. Terrible gameweek but still around the 6k mark so can't complain. This was the first time my decision not to take hits back fired on me. It's something I'll have to reassess in the future.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    94 for this gw, big improvement from gw 1 and 2, wildcard in gw3 to get kun and Salah out a success so far, been able to put aside 2m to get Salah back in with relative ease after this tough period for them changes.

    Silva, hazard, ings and firmino all doing the business last few weeks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,333 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    67 sees me go from 149k to 112k. Happy enough with that WC. Decent jump and made/saved 0.4m in the process.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    35k
    All green arrows
    So far.......

    68 and I'm now at 80k. We've had very a similar start to the season possibly having the same captain each week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,049 ✭✭✭boccy23


    82 points this week. Up to 11K overall.

    And had 19 points on the bench with Wan B and Hojberg.

    Ah well. Green arrows all round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭tailgunner


    67 (-4) and a decent jump to 309k. Happy with that, I usually have rougher starts to a season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,714 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    54 in the end....not a total catastrophe but it's been all red arrows since GW1 :-(

    In hindsight, I've been playing too conservatively.....no hits taken prior to this week.

    At 260K now and about 30 points off the lead in most of my mini leagues.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,596 ✭✭✭threein99


    71 without having Hazard, very happy with that. Salah to Hazard is going to happen to very soon in my team

    77 post WC. Got a bit of luck (for once!) with my auto sub of Wan Bissaka in for Mendy.

    Up to 19k, top of my main leagues so a happy camper this morning.

    (Cue injuries galore in the CL this week!!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,342 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    88 in the end post-WC.

    Was 7.1k before last night, with nobody playing. Adam Smith's 7 coming in sent me up 400 places, which I didn't really expect with AWBs and Frasers coming in, but I'll take it.

    so up to 6.7k. if only I'd captained Hazard this week, or Kun on his big week. ah well. still a bloody excellent position to be in.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    46 pts. No Hazard & no Fraser hurts the ranking.

    Around 660k which is not great but not as bad as many people would think at this stage of the season.
    The worrying thing is I'm on a perfect (C) run so far with my Aguero/Salah rotation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,164 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    93 points on wildcard and up to 771st in the world! Couldn’t have imagined a start like this.

    Outstanding. Kutgw


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,685 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    First WC GW and 82pts, jumping from 234k to 66k. Didn't expect that much of a jump. Delighted. Getting into the top 10k and remaining there my main aim now.

    Keep pluggin' away who knows where you could end up


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,303 ✭✭✭Mike Ehrmantraut


    Some great scores on here again this week.
    Finished on 50 for the week and a red arrow, Fraser and his 18 pt haul sitting on the bench is frustrating, but still inside 3.5k OR so can't really be complaining.
    Starting to consider wc, but barring injuries probably try to hold off another couple of weeks

    In most years its grand but this year its a more worrying start as good players have started better than usual. Your score would have you 56th out of 65 in the boards pay league.You would be 22nd out of 25 in dahats league. You have the 16th highest score out of 20 in the Fsa premier league. Only 5 pts ahead of the 19th highest score. It will be harder to catch who is above you this year than in previous years. Im only slightly ahead of you but looking through my pay leagues you can see a very clear trend the stronger players have got off to a much better start than they usually do. There is loads of time to go and its still possible to have an amazing season. I just think a 660k rank at this stage isnt as good as it usually is in seasons gone by.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,582 ✭✭✭NoviGlitzko


    56 points. Not the worst seeing I had no Hazard/Fraser. Bring on the next GW.

    Yeah I see what you mean but those leagues only have good players don't they? I'm not in money leagues anymore so my aim every start of the season is top 1%, ideally 4 digits finish. If I can reach the first aim I consider it a decent/good season depending how much inside the top 1% I finish. If I can reach the second aim, I consider it a good season and if I'm last in such leagues that you cited I'd just have to say bravo (or f*** off lucky b@st@rds :pac:) to all the ones above me.

    Now, it's still early in the season and the ranks can change very fast. e.g. Hazard this GW made a 20/30 pts difference against me. There seems to be many different options this year in terms of premium players. We can't have them all so these choices will likely make big différences. We'll see. I'm still in a half-casual playing mode so far so can't complain too much about my slow start.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Finish on 74 for the week and up to 45k. If there’s one thing this season is teaching me it’s patience. Had I taken a hit in recent weeks, Fraser would have been gone.

    Haven’t taken a hit to date and I’ve given up worrying about chasing price rises/avoiding falls.

    If you get an overall rank of 9,999 or less I'd say you'll be safe enough from finishing last :pac:
