59 brings means a modest rise from 14.3k to 13.3k. I have been stuck at 13-14k for the last 5 weeks but will keep playing safe for now before taking a few risks around gw29-30.

Yellow flags for Jones, Aguero and Sanchez is worrying though.

Agüero has said he's ok. And the others will have a week and a half off it they need it.

Ended up with 54. Not bad for me.

Down to 18k. Aim now is just a top 10k finish. Harry Kane had ruined me.

Very conservative tbh.

You could still easily get top 5k with one or 2 decisions that go for you.

Dropped another 2.5k this week. Out to 12k now.

I'm in total freefall. Just can't make the right decisions atall and so many times I'm in a 50/50 decision on a transfer, I always, ALWAYS pick the wrong one.

To think, where I was after GW17, I have had 7 red arrows out of 8 since then

@ Rikand: It's still a pretty solid season so far for you. You obviously need to stop this bad spell but we all have bad runs and well you had yours so statistically you should have a good one in the coming weeks

A decent 60pts considering I swopped out ADM for Sanchez and Giroud for Capt Defoe.

Yeh its like what your parents warned you about. Try not to fall in with the wrong crowd.

The forum can be a bit destructive like that, especially when you get a bit of a hair brained notion which you'd probably wise up from if you were reading 'mainstream' FPL websites. But then you come on here and a few posters you know and respect are on the same idea.

Pelle was a good example of that, I had a notion to chance him on the wildcard, wondering am I mad, then I see Ziegler and Lemlin thinking on the same lines and suddenly it becomes a valid surefire plan.

This place is a huge resource but you have to step back from it at times and look at the logic of what you are at.

Agreed. A few weeks ago I swore I'd stick the captaincy on Aguero for the rest of the reason, but after seeing Sanchez in the team and then everyone else jumping on him I decided to jump too!

I also did this. And selling Sanchez before the Spurs game. And getting Puncheon to some degree.

Ranking is a secondary worry tbh. My main goal is to win my private leagues.

Pelle was purely because of watching Swansea against Blackburn for me. They were dreadful.

That's the thing about the forum though. Like a good player, decisions will be right or wrong, it's just about getting more right.

The January wildcard hasn't gone well for a lot of us but the lads here still know their stuff.
