    Absolute catasphoric week..

    after the last GW & before international matches I transferred out Mahrez & Payet to Pedro & Sako. Silva gets injured and replace him with Firmino for a -4..

    Currently down 17 points on those changes (not including Payet CS, Bps or anything else he does in this game!!

    DISASTER Season

    I feel like going crazy and packing this ****e in!!!

    Not really considered shifting him out this week, but was all set to do it next week, having banked my FT.

    He's still away to City, but I'll have to re think.

    Yeah I was waiting until this match to see how good he does as I was hoping of upgrading him to Ozil, because, well, Ozil! I've always been reluctant in selling him however as he does look very dangerous! Who would have thought I would have gotten what looks like 27 points from two players in the past two days! What a turnaround this GW has been!

    I fell about 40 points behind the leaders at Christmas in my main money league last year, I was still 40 points behind at the end, bar one or two players all the top 4 or 5 teams looked identical.

    Then it was up to you to gamble, i was 90 points behind with 7 GW's to go and managed to win by a couple of points. Matty philips for QPR delivered big time over a DGW along with a few other lads.

    I don't want to sound smart but I told you all guys even pre-season about Payet. He's this kind of player. Not involved in his team previous 6 goals and then comes and scores a brace (at least). So typical to what he did for years in France. Most frustrating FPL player to own. Who am I to give you a lesson though ? :rolleyes: :pac:...

    Payet has put me 35 points behind some leaders and decent players tonight.

    Not good.

    Sanchez's wastefulness is actually what has fúcked things up. Not tonight.

    Payet earns himself a stay of execution. Good lad

    If Janmaat was with literally any other team I think I'd bring him in. As it is, nope.

    Sakho is about as threatening as my mass attending cake baking gran

    Edit: His ex girlfriend would probably beg to differ :pac:

    Thing is I can't really sell as Kane is a more pressing matter. There's also Mane aswell

    How many shots has Janmaat had, this is ridiculous. Too bad Newcastle defence is utter crap

    Using that Chrome add on someone posted up a couple of weeks ago for expanding the league tables on the main site. If someone has the link they might help you out and post it as I don't have it to hand.

    It shows the GW points which was at the end of yesterday and the Live points. Unless someone has Payet stashed on their bench to come in it would show in the difference in the two points totals.


    Yep, I have the add on, good way to look at it, cheers.

    I'm still fairly hesitant as I had 2 FT this week (already done Haz to Alexis) and therefore would mean I wasted my extra FT

    Well I listened anyway pal. Thanks for convincing me that the frustration wouldn't be worth it.
    I'm basking in the enjoyment of knowing that he'll probably have a two pointer next week before an 18 point week 7 and a 19 point week 9:)

    Goal not assisted by a defender is worth 6 points because of Sakho's good BPS score. I could really use it

    Yah... I can brag... I got tempted early on. He did serve me. I got hope. Yeah (and I also did told you guys) Bielsa's impact did him a huge amount of good last year but then he does nothing out of WH last 6 goals and I got disillusioned again and sold him as part of a -4 this week (partly for stupid team value purposes :rolleyes:).

    Thank you Payet!

    Will finish up on 64 points after bps and subs, hopefully this will kick start my season.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Will finish on 67.

    So rare that not selling people works out for me but not selling Payet for Pedro has been excellent.

    Delighted

    Wooo, faith in Payet is rewarded! Couldn't get rid before this juicy fixture and it paid off. To be fair, he did come very close to points in his previous two games so I can't have too much sympathy to those who lost patience with him.
