    The Scarface fpl guy has deleted his twitter account today. The Age of Leaks may be over.

    He hasn’t deleted it, just deactivated it.

    Apparently he was getting loads of abuse on Twitter.

    What for? Always find it weird when people go after someone like that who is just trying to help.

    That's why we can't have nice things in this world, there will always be a few idiots ruining it for the rest.

    Aye but I’ll not know where to look and I’ll be tired.

    If it was an easy one-stop-shop like Rockstar or Scarface then grand.

    Anything else and I’m out. Sure you wouldn’t know who to trust.

    The internet of today is a nasty place especially Twitter. I can’t say I’m surprised he has been targeted. Trolls are so common everywhere you go online.

    It’s a shame as both himself and Rockstar are providing a great service to the FPL community and this is how they’re treated.

    I understand that some big accounts on twitter get abuse, be it their supported team or some radical views etc, but Scarface is just a guy trying to help everyone with FPl. No club allegiance or stuff like that. No need for abuse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,136 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Greenwood or Ings?

    Going with Ings at the moment as I already have a very stacked midfield of Martial, Bruno, Sterling, Silva and Pulisic plus Kane upfront.

    To be honest, this isn’t a million miles off the mark. Regression to the FPL mean next year or is he only going to improve for a 2nd season and replace fortune with ruthlessness?

    I think his price will be crucial next season. I had him for the last few games and he hasn’t played well at all, but has returned points.

    Yesterday was a case in point. At the 2nd half water break Gary Neville was saying if his name wasn’t Bruno you would seriously consider taking him off he was playing that poorly. 3 minutes later Man U get a penalty and he goes from 3 to 11 points.

    At the right price I might be tempted, but not sure I’d pay over 10m for him.

    If Utd sign some more decent attackers then it should take some of the burden off him and he will get rested more. Still think he'll be the Utd attacking asset to own next year, Martial will be back as a forward.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,543 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I guess much of it depends on whether we consider the amount of penalties United got as an outlier, or if enough of it is a byproduct of having that amount of attacking pace in the box. Then again, you did have the Villa one which is about as outlier as you will get.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,057 ✭✭✭Brian201888


    Be good if they changes the deadline to 2 hours prior to first kickoff next year. That would eliminate the early team leaks that probably cheapen things a fair bit even if they are fun to hit.

    Won a decent wedge of cash this year because my rivals had Salah and TAA and didn't know

    Those leaked line ups give the like of us a small edge over other players, it would make life a bit easier alright as you wouldn't be refreshing your phone non stop 5 mins before kick off but it can be helpful at times

    I’m pretty in favour of things that give an advantage to people who put the time and effort in, but I would not be upset by this, other than having to be an up hour earlier on Saturday mornings after nights on the beer.

    I'd have thought if they were making changes, it'd be better to have the deadline as KO on the first game.

    The early team leaks benefit those who take the game seriously which is fair enough. I'd have thought having everyone on a level playing field would be fairer than handicapping everyone.

    A little bit of both but it's got to be an outlier to some extent. 14 pens is a PL record, it's nearly 3 times what Liverpool got (who have just as pacy an attack and should be dominating games at least as much).

    They will get pens next season, but it's highly unlikely to be 14 again, more likely to be around half that.

    Good points made on Bruno and "stats-padding", I think it's likely he'll be overpriced next season. His points haul this season has been incredible and his price will likely reflect that, but I just don't think it's sustainable


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,787 ✭✭✭Benimar


    Just taking a look there, if I'd left Nick Pope as my set and forget keeper (I had him GW1) I'd have got 30 points more from my keepers than I did :eek:

    Agree. Bruno's price is going to be stupidly high next season I think. Probably 10M+.

    Surely Martial is the player to have and Greenwood will be a great enabler if his price stays the same but could see Greenwood starting at 5m or 5.5m

    United did get 12 the previous season so it’s not completely outrageous they’d get double digits again

    Agree on Bruno, he'll be high. I'd say they'll put him KDB category and start him as 10.

    Greenwood I reckon could be higher again next season unfortunately, maybe 7/7.5.

    Greenwood’s price will fly up as a currently starting United attacker surely?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,976 ✭✭✭Trimm Trabb


    Lads just looking for a bit of advice; I'm running a league and top 2 have ended up on same points. The game has them ranked 1 & 2 based on who has made fewer transfers as per the rules and 1st place has a better overall rank than 2nd place.

    I do feel its a bit harsh on guy in 2nd though? Nothing was said about tied positions at the start of season. My options are to pay out 1st and 2nd as per standings, split the pot between two of them or else pay 1st full prize and top up 2nd place out of my own pocket (€30) to get him up to what he would get with a split pot?

    That'd be terribly unfair IMO. If someone had 6 players playing in the early kickoff he'd know if all 6 were going to play or not - i.e more than half his starting lineup. Someone with no player in the game would be seriously disadvantaged IMO.

    Yup 7.5m absolute minimum IMO. Probably 8m or so.

    I think you have to go by the way the game has decided. I lost my work league by 1 point. If doherty had have played 60 minutes Id have won on fewer transfers. I certainly wouldn't be putting in 30 euro of your own money.

    If the person in first is sound, he might be happy to split with second?

    Just go with what the site says, they've a tiebreaker decided in the rules so you apply that.

    siblers wrote: »

    But he won based on the rules of the game. You cant just decide which rules to apply and which to ignore. It's extremely unlikely but maybe the guy in first was conservative with his transfers in the last few weeks for this very reason.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Perhaps I undervalued Greenwood at 5.5M.

    Surely if Sancho joins then he's just a complete write off if above that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 257 ✭✭Trey13


    I've a question for anyone who has done really well this season, (top 50k in my opinion is doing well). Over the past two seasons I've finished 400k and 800k, before that I was a solid top 50k finisher. I haven't changed tactics really, usually I build value, take hits and then steamroll towards the end of the season. Over the last two seasons, it hasn't worked out.

    What tactics do people think work best to succeed with more players playing the game?

    Agree with what the others have said here. The lad in 1st has won this league unequivocally by the rules of the game and should be paid 1st prize.

    Tough on the guy in 2nd, he's as close as you can get but he's still 2nd.

    If the guy in first wants to split it that should be at his discretion

    Just before lockdown my main league was very tight
    I therefore decided not to make any transfers over the closure. Guy in second did.
    This was the reason I didn't. It is in the rules.It didn't matter in the end as I won by 50 points but I was covering myself in case of a tie. I also stopped taking hits around that time

    The annoying thing is that I think that mess of a "unlmited transfers" all counted as a transfer - so you could be punished for tinkering.

    Though it is the rules - I would talk to the lad in 1st and see what he says

    What tactics do people think work best to succeed with more players playing the game?

    Over the last 3 seasons I've had one stellar finish (264), one stinker (190k), one very good finish (4k). I don't think my approach has been very different across the 3 seasons, so it does just show that t here is variance/luck involved and you might be on the wrong side of that. Whatever I did on season 2 it just didn't go right for me, being t he wrong side of some 50/50 decisions early on can hamstring your whole season.

    However, I would say that it's in the last 3 seasons that I've really started playing the game seriously - I had a lot of solid finishes just outside the top 10k before and thought I was a serious player because I followed price changes and always remembered to do my transfers. But the last 3 seasons I've put in that extra bit which can give you an edge.

    The main different things I would say I've done in these last 3 years is:

    1) Used stats regularly to inform decisions (especially Xg which is a new thing)
    2) Read FF forums (here and reddit) regularly.

    Combined with t his I think you need to continue to watch football. My worst seasons have always been the ones i didn't watch MOTD regularly I think - the eye test can help give context to the stats.

    1) Some are skeptical of Xg but I think if you know how to read and understand it it's hugely beneficial. For example, I would say my best move this year was ditching Vardy before he went stopped scoring, and bringing in Aguero. The Xg suggested he was overperforming. Antonio (and I didn't back this move), would be another one. I tihnk some people saw him as a leftfield choice, butthose who followed xG we would have been well on the radar. It's important to look at it in the overall context (e.g. if a player is underperforming on Xg but has always done so over the past 3 seasons, then you're not going to expect an upswing), and play around with various filters etc... Understat is good for this

    2) I do always think you should go your own way and make your own decisions, but forums just give you more info to make those decisions. They can help you 2nd guess some decisions. They can give you quick easy digestible stats to inform you. A recent example - I wasn't sure whether to take a hit to get in Sterling on the last day. I fancied keeping Salah away to Newcastle. Saw I quick stat on reddit that Salah had 4 league goals away all season. Suddenly the ceiling on Salah didn't seem so high so I thought a straight swap for Sterling made sense. I know I got lucky with the lineup but this still helped me make what I think was the best decision. Additionally these forums are good at bringing attention toa player not on your radar. A great example would be Lundstram this year. This is one I didn't take advantage of, but there was a Sheffield fan on Reddit who was adamant Lundstram would start centre mid and could be value at 4.0. He's a player I wouldn't have known anything about or considered.

    Finally, I think being very honest with yourself, being honest on your biases and blindspots, and being aware and honest about when you've been unlucky vs when you've made a bad decision is very very important. If you're unlucky every week you're probably not being honest with yourself and not correcting mistakes. But works the other way too - my points tally early on was not good, but I was able to recognise that my team was in good shape, so didn't panic and use my wildcard. Goes without saying but taking the emotion out helps.

    Then like I said, I think continuing to watch matches can add colour to all of this is still important imo.

    Hope this helps, not trying to come across like I know it all, but felt compelled to respond as someone who's played this for a while but has actually got better these last 3 years despite the competition!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,976 ✭✭✭Trimm Trabb


    Thanks to everyone who replied to my question. It was quite surprised to see they had tied this morning so my initial reaction probably made it more of a complicated decision than it actually was. As I thought more about it paying out 1st and 2nd as per league table was only viable decision.

    I didn't mention anything about splitting etc as I thought it would muddy water and first place mentioned after I paid out he would 100% not have expected pot to be split if roles were reversed so happy I've done right thing. Haven't heard from 2nd place yet though!

    What tactics do people think work best to succeed with more players playing the game?

    For what its worth

    1. The game has changed a lot, wingbacks have become a lot more important, goalies a lot less so. Last year big at the back was the way to go, this year less so. Its important to spot that trend early on. I guess you have to listen to what people are doing and go with what you most like.

    2. I feel like with all the extra info around we get impatient or feel that just cause everyone here has Sterling doesn't mean that the whole world does. The guys in here or that you follow on line are among the elite of the game. I used to work for a start-up and one of the things we struggled with was quantifying what success was, especially when you overachieve for a time.
    Defining success is one of the hardest things to do.
    This year I set targets for a lot of new signings. Say for example Ritchie, I got him in after the lockdown, 9 games. I planned on playing him for 6 and set him the goal of four CSs or the equivalent. He got 26 points in the first two games and then 0-1-0-2. In another season I'd have ditched him but looking at it as a whole his target was 28 points and he had gotten it.
    I found it useful for not making knee-jerk reactions
    3. What Morzadec said about blindspots, Bournemouth have been mine, along with others, I',m so glad they are gone. But I need to work on that for next season. I undervalue some players (Salah, TAA, Burnley players) and overvalue others (Alli, Arsenal, Chelsea).

    Definitely a good shout on the defenders - I still put way too much stock in the clean sheet potential of a defender and way too little in their attacking ability. Definitely had a tendancy to sometimes see defenders returning attacking points as an outlier - that's where the eye test or XG can help confirm or refute this. Same with goalkeepers - save points and the ensuing bonus seem to be the way to go. The top 4 / top 6 don't keep cleanies the way they used to. I don't think the top scoring goalkeeper when I started playing the game was ever from a mid-table team but now they tend to be.

    Great advice about defining success for your player and accepting variance. Not something I do but a good way to look at it

    Great advice about defining success for your player and accepting variance. Not something I do but a good way to look at it

    With goalies I think in the last two seasons we’ve gone from a two 4.5m goalie rotation to a 4.5m/5m set and forget. Certainly I have

    You have unlimited transfers up to the start of GW1, so plenty of time to reverse that one :P

    Agree. Bruno's price is going to be stupidly high next season I think. Probably 10M+.

    Surely Martial is the player to have and Greenwood will be a great enabler if his price stays the same but could see Greenwood starting at 5m or 5.5m

    Martial will be a striker next season and dearer probably, rashford could be interesting as a midfielder

    Ah jaysus, who is gonna respond to my constant thoughts and meanderings now? You’ll be missed around here, although I selfishly hope you reconsider.
