    How do I not have a Bellerin assist this season yet?
    If Aguero is out for a while, I may need to pull wildcard trigger

    I don't really get why folk who need WC if he's out - you have 13m free and not many expensive players out there that are must need

    I'm loving the start of this season. I'm sorry but I think it's fantastic that the majority of the FSA and FPL brain trust in general have started so slowly.

    Last season was a cushy ride in fairness and for many riding the coat tails of Yaya and Ransey the season before too.

    The most I've enjoyed this game was that season and I only broke 100k one week at 97k. The challenge of trying to out think the unthinkable was brilliant fun. Goals change within a season and the screw will probably turn at some point.

    Sure if you're relying on money leagues etc then it may be infuriating but it is jolly good fun seeing something different happen :) I say that having captained Aguero and sitting with a 7 digit rank.

    Perhaps I'm just a special case though :pac:

    You're right tbf. It's frustrating in leagues with money on the line, but it is nice to have unpredictability.

    It'd be different if a bunch of shít players or DMs were scoring. But it's just a case of big players not clicking like you'd expect. We're having to rely on mid-range players.

    It'll come right over the course of the season, but the current trend is mad.

    Right, fcuk it this is torture. I'm off to cut the grass, and I'm not checking the scores again till full time. I expect to come back to multiple second half hat tricks, including one for captain Wilson! :pac:

    And those who stayed away from Aguero are rewarded.

    The season of the casual continues.

    Staying away from an overpriced, injury prone player makes people a 'casual' (clearly meant in a derogatory manner)? Nice.

    I've had 2 GW ranks of 2m+ and in total, including captain points, got 85 points from my midfield and attack think I have had my fair share of bad luck so far!

    I have Ruddy, Silva, Kane among others that might need shipping. It's also tough to spread those funds back around using FTs

    No one knows right now too early to tell obviously bad enough for him to have to go off presumably it will get mentioned in the post match.

    Watford probably had the best of that first half but best chances fell to Swansea.
    Gomis looks real danger if he can stay onside.

    Need Mane on as an early second half sub to give me some hope!

    Final Score just after saying 'what looks like a nasty knee injury '.

    He's not injury prone. That's a myth that's been debunked regularly.

    And yes, if you don't have Aguero, you're not playing the game right IMO. He's the best player in the game.

    Or you could look at it as having the best player and goal scorer in the league that you can sell at any point and have a fine kitty leftover too for the best team so far this season with the assisting might of Silva/Sterling/Yaya/KDB and Kolorov?

    When you consider those and conclude he's a fantastic captaincy option and weapon and wort the risk of breaking down then you may tend to be someone who may spend more time thinking about the game and not be so casual about the whole thing. I'm sure you can understand that?

    Beauty of the game that there're different ways of playing it though :)

    17 points thus far, then noticed my fantasy team on FFFix was not up to date. Reloaded, and I'm on 7 points.

    :(

    Whether people take offence to the term casual or no, he's not wrong on the Aguero thing.
