    Ouch! Can only blame yourself for not captaining Aguero like everyone else though.

    Total Captain Points : 162
    Captains Used : Agüero (3 times - 68 points - average 22.7 points)
    Diego Costa (2 times - 24 points - average 12 points)
    Sánchez (1 times - 32 points - average 32 points)
    Rooney (1 times - 14 points - average 14 points)
    Jovetic (1 times - 4 points - average 4 points)
    Fábregas (1 times - 12 points - average 12 points)
    Balotelli (1 times - 4 points - average 4 points)
    Adebayor (1 times - 4 points - average 4 points)

    Had a woeful run early on captain wise, including being in the now infamous 'Balotelli club' the week Costa went off the charts, but getting it spot on 3 of the last 4 weeks has seen me make massive strides up the table. It's all about the captain choices (assuming you have a reasonably well thought out team).

    Nice little tool: http://anewpla.net/fpl/

    Thanks for sharing. Very useful tool :cool:.

    Your captain stats are insane :eek:. If i deduced it right you had only 2 failures out of 10 GWs :eek:! This is a lot above average. By the way what's your total actual captain pts compared to maximum possible?
    Last year I finished just outside top 1.5k and barely got my captain right every second time (54% to be precise). I don't know what your current ranking is and I know your team score is not all about its captain but nevertheless if you continue this run you're on for a glorious finish :cool:!

    Granted you had some spectacular failures but 162 pts out of 10 GWs is pretty good methinks ;).

    Cheers! I'm on 148 pts out of a possible 250 pts (59%). Yeah, Sterling against Villa and Aguero v West Ham are my only blanks. I'm rueful of those two missed big captaincy hauls, but am 3k overall so absolutely delighted with how the season is going.

    Woah. Would have thought your percentage would be a lot higher. Means your team's flying :D. In a way it reminds me my season last year :p (though was not that high that early).

    I only got 114 captain pts out of a possible 244 (this last figure reassures me on my team not being too much all over the place :pac:).

    I must remember to ask you your captain choices from now on :P.

    The main reason for my good season so far tbh:

    Captains Used : Diego Costa (4 times - 70 points - average 17.5 points)
    Agüero (4 times - 84 points - average 21 points)
    Rooney (2 times - 22 points - average 11 points)
    Jovetic (1 times - 4 points - average 4 points)

    Managing to hit it right nearly every game week. Decent averages.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,079 ✭✭✭✭8-10


    I would have gotten more points had I used my vice captain as my captain every week.

    We'll that's depressing

    Crys...

    134 captain points for me... Pretty happy with that, only 2 main mistakes.

    Balotelli club (costing me 30 captain ponits) followed by a Ade club (chasing stupid C differentials after my Mario mishap)

    Where do I find my Id for that tool?

    Interesting that 3-5-2 looks good on some stats. Have been contemplating Wood from Leicester as the bench fodder

    go to "view points" and there will be a number in the URL after the word entry

    Go to view team history and its in the address bar it could be a single digit number I'd you signed up early or a seven digit number if you were later on.

    I wouldn't read anything into the stats for formations from it. Impossible to tell if people are opting for 3-5-2 by design. In more cases, I doubt it.

    eg A lot of lads on here would have had a very profitable 3-5-2 formation in GW7. But that wasn't by design. Costa was out, many had Aguero VC and many had Boyd with 8 points coming in.

    On a positive note, it seems I have been rotating the keepers well:

    Total Played Keeper Points : 44

    Total Benched Keeper Points : 22


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    Costa 4 times avg 10

    rvp twice avg 3

    Tell me about it!

    114 (C) pts vs 194 (VC) pts :eek: :o. 80 points diff !!! :eek: !!! I actually can't believe it... Just checked... and... it's actually depressing.
    With just half of that difference I'd be in top 20k (from 112k) and if I'd played my VC as C I'd be in top 2k.

    ---

    Formations :
    • 3-4-3 (8 times - average 55.3 points)
    • 4-4-2 (3 times - average 55 points)
    Captains Used :
    • Diego Costa (5 times - 42 points - average 8.4 points)
    • Rooney (2 times - 18 points - average 9 points)
    • Agüero (2 times - 42 points - average 21 points)
    • Sterling (1 times - 2 points - average 2 points)
    • Pellè (1 times - 10 points - average 10 points)

    What's ironical is my main failure last year was my GK choices (I left sooo many pts on the bench). Solved that dilemma this year but it seemed it's taken all my focus at the expense of captain choices :rolleyes: :o...

    • Total Played Keeper Points : 37
    • Total Benched Keeper Points : 10

    Ahh, sure you need the spectacular failures to make you feel alive and to enjoy all the more the ones that curl into the top corner past a full stretch keeper..... :)

    I'll see you those two and raise you having done Jovetic (in for a hit as with Balotelli) the week before. Had three 2(x2) point captains in a row weeks 3, 4 and 5 while taking some silly hits at the same time. The run from week 8 to 11 was 38, 4, 32, 26 (after the x2) and everyone captained Aguero week 9.

    Missed all the big points haul from Costa, Aguero (got him in late) & Sanchez :o but managed to score pretty well (just outside top 20k at the moment). I prefer not think about how high I could have been if...

    Hmm maybe i should go with 4-5-1 more often but can't see myself doing that with Costa Aguero and Berahino up front.
