    70 is very good score this week.

    13 above average with many random teams playing chips.

    I wouldn't complain.

    63 all out, not bad Captain Mo, Haaland, Reece and Cancelo the only providers really. Switching Kulu for Mount cost me 10 points

    76 points so happy with that as a start....TAA,Perisic and Jesus the main disappointments but all 3 will deliver over the months ahead imo.

    50 points to start off. Going Kane over Haaland and giving him the armband over Salah then the main gripe. Punt on Sancho looks a mistake already, might get Grealish in for him

    78 points to kick things off, happy with that. Salah captain and Haaland over Kane the main point winners. Hoping to bank a transfer this week all going well.

    65, not great but it's early stages. TAA, Sancho, Neto, Jesus and Watkins, whose gone after not starting, were the ones that let me down. Left only a net four points on the bench so no complaints there.

    I've often wildcarded after the opening games but I don't think it's necessary this time.

    73. Kulu, Haaland, Salah, Cancelo and Trippier doing the biz. Have taken a hit already for next week swapping Archer for Mitro and Neto for DaSilva.

    81 with a Bench Boost used, that tactic kind of backfired as only got 8 points of it.

    71 decent start.

    Having it out of the way is worth points in itself

    52 Points only Wilson(C) Haaland and James contributed really.

    In past seasons perhaps - but can you say that when most of us will have 4 playing subs who are bargain based prices - you can have Ward, Williams/Patterison and Pereira/DaSilva, Greenwood etc who will should all be game time this season.

    Also one thing that is often overlooked, when people talk about their BB points, would you really have xyz on bench if it wasn't a BB? some people for instance i've seen played Bailey but benched Zinchenko - would you do that if wasn't BB? if you had Haalnd, Martinelli and Darwin on bench and played it - could you say it's a successful BB?

    Well the cheapest playing striker is 6m, so that's 1.5m gone already. I'd expect Leicester to sign a goalie, so you're up to 2m. Of course other players could emerge but I'm happy having it out of the way.


    I'm someone who played Bailey over Zinchenko, thats exactly what i would have done if I wasn't on BB, otherwise you're just codding yourself

    Kieffer Moore played 90minutes and scored in game week one and is only 5.5million if you want to save another .5mill. Not sure if he will keep his place in the team. Tried reading up on his history with Bournemouth and I think last season was disrupted for him by injury but his scoring rate was great for them. Tough fixtures in the next few but will be considering him myself if he looks to be holding his place.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,029 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    Perhaps the cheapest starting forward is 5.5/6 but there are forwards at 4.5m who will see game time - I would hazard a guess that Sam Greenwood at Leeds will get minutes in every game and will start some as well - only for a great Sa save, he would have had an assist at the weekend.

    Why did you spend 5m on Zinchenko if you see him as a bench player? With the amount of 4.5m playing defenders in the game it seems a waste of 0.5m in him, as with 5 subs this year unless a player is injured it's likely they will get game time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,705 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Because I wasn't buying him for one game, likewise Trippier will most likely be on my bench for GW3. I thought Bailey would get more against Bournemouth
