    Spoke to him this morning.

    He's never getting any big hitters in. He scoffed at my suggestion that Aguero might be handy at some stage.

    'No need. Waste of money.'

    Amazed you got anything out of him if it were me I would just be shouting 1st in the world biatches ffffffiiiiiiirrrrrrsssssstttttttttttt and that would be about it.

    Argghhh. All the red arrows. 42 (-4) with Bolasie (c) to go. Just felt like a gamble so hopefully Bolasie grabs a goal. But, will probably end up regretting not captaining Lukaku.

    One positive however, that useless Italian prick is now out of my team for the beautiful Sergio Aguero!

    Bolasie. Captain. What. The.

    Hopefully now you have Aguero you will just throw it on him and not change it again until he's out and cut that sort of thing out!

    If Kane was to miss out for any reason I just spotted BUIB is my VC I thought it was vardy
    That would be the final insult


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    All the rankings stuff is relative anyway. I'd rather finish 1st in the boards pay league with 10k OR than 5th with 2k OR. Casuals should get their comeuppance Jan onwards with all the quick turn around GWs and lower team values

    How many captain successes have you had this season? I know for me I've had sweeeet f*ck all. So yes I've decided to take a gamble for 1 week, why not! MNF loves it's goals, Palace are at home...to Sunderland, and Bolasie is playing very advanced.

    Throwing hindsight aaide that wasn't as crazy a captain choice as it looks and you still have a bit of Monday night fpl to look forward to! Good luck.

    How about we settle for 3 nil, bolaisie 2 goals and a goal off Scott Dann! Fair?!

    I did the same, no stand out player and the Monday night game swung it for me. Hopefully we'll have the last laugh :D

    Because you have to ignore short term luck and focus on long term logic.

    Yeah. I imagine scorelines would have netted you a few hundred million (and that's no exaggeration!!)

    Hope you had the special offer get one wrong and get your stake as a free bet. That would soften the blow sure.

    Please God stay quiet Kane and Eriksen

    Captain choices will always be short term, they're a one GW punt on who you think will score the most on that given GW. I most likely won't captain him again. But bringing him into my team isn't short term, with some nice fixtures and for a 6.1m mid playing that far up front, is good value for money.

    You're like me, I used to put bets on players to score multiple goals when I knew that those goals would hurt my Fantasy team, thought it would soften the blow but it didn't really, the money would need to be life changing to make up for that kind of heartache:o

    Exactly! This is what every should do but you have already said you took a punt this week which suggests you didn't think that was the case!

    Obviously captain choices are only one week but your approach to them should be consistent over the season. The players that do well in this game are the ones who make consistently good decisions from season to season not the ones who take crazy captain punts that come off a couple of times a year.

    need a minimum of a 10 pointer (20 as captain)
    minimum

    Kane to go off before HT with a knock and Alli to grab a brace. I can dream :pac:

    I'm only kidding mate!! You could hardly believe I would have put a bet on a Liverpool 4 0 win let alone predict all the rest of the scores 😄😄

    Only scores I would have predicted are united and Chelsea scorelines! Maybe Swansea also!

    All the rest were extremely huge odds I'd guess!

    let's do this Harry

    Yes I knew you were kidding and hadn't come within a goal of winning hundreds of millions:o
    I was just making an observation based on your post.

    If Spurs keep a CS Harry can do what he wants!

    If you had got that close to it I think everyone would have been very impressed with your composure! I doubt many would have any screens or fists left if that happened to them!!
