    After Saturday's climb, yesterday slid me back down almost to where I started the GW.

    68 points and it was only good for a move of 2k places up to 57k. Happy with the score, disappointed with the outcome.

    44, ugh.

    69 gives me a slight green arrow to 29k. Made good ground in a lot of my serious paid leagues but lost ground in the one league I'm in with a bunch of casuals. Double arsenal defence , Dann, alder, not selling ozil for sanchez , always play mahrez. That's the decisions these people are making . That's 61 pts from 6 without their captain choice. I'm close to 150 pts behind a lad that has made 7 transfers all season and played his wildcard in gw 2 to make 3 changes.

    finished on 50 and another does of red arrows, back below 1mil ffs :(

    Despite having an average of 52.6 per gw i don't seem to be able to make a break this season. half feel like packing it in this year as i have never really got going

    55 points

    A drop of almost 58k places to just inside 242k. Sold Ozil this week to try move a bit away from the template and I get hammered for it. It's gonna be really hard to break into the top 50k now but navigating the blanks and DGWs well could be what pushes me up the rankings.

    69. Mostly green arrows. Bad transfers decisions (getting rid of Rom) but balanced out by good team pick (only 4 points on bench).

    But I'm so positive! I would have been delighted with a net 69 now let me tell you about my week (insert lots of moaning about how unlucky I am).

    76....a rise of 50k to 184K but a fall of 70k from Saturday evening :eek:

    Happy enough overall....disappointed by the blanks from Sanchez and Payet though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    57 points. Just fell about 75k to 758k.

    Funny old season isn't it?

    I don't fully agree with this. Or shall I ask what's the template? Is Aguero in it? He's scoring consistently now (watch him blank next gW :pac:). Is Alder in it? Saints defense in it? Lukaku still in it? Is Alli there? And about the non performing ones. You mentioned Butland. Could add City & United def? Payet?

    Then, it depends a lot upon who you're chasing. If it's someone like Busts or Lemlin who adapted better than most of us, you probably won't make up your 100+ pts unless you get lucky with your crazy differentials (but chances are you won't and will rathe rfinish 200 pts behind). Because they won't make stupid decisions for the blanks/DGWs.

    Aguero is in the top 10k template, not the casual one. Alder and Alli are in both as well as Cech.

    I'm 60 points and 20 places back in the Boards Pay league, so won't even think about moneying in that unless I go on a great run. My grumblings are more to do with stuff like this:

    80 points behind, Cech, Dann, Alder, Naismith(!), Defoe, no Aguero: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/1758453/event-history/25/

    45 points behind, Cech, Monreal, Alder, Smalling, Kolarov, Sagna, Mata, Barkley, no Kun or Kane, didn't even play 1st WC: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/451662/event-history/25/

    On the contrary if you're chasing a lucky muttafecker who captained Sagna this week and got Huth subbing in for him & Mahrez VC, chances are he won't plan well the blanks/DGWs and will make stupid 1-week decisions. He'll probably waste his WCs and will either take huge pts hits or none at all and have very few DGWers (at least the wrong ones) and field a very depleted side for the blanks.

    That's me. 60 behind a guy who captained Sagna. Got Monreal as his Vc and had Mahrez as his first sub.

    Still think I'll reign him in. Aguero is my major differential so my season could rest on him scoring big.

    Right. I think you both have plenty of time to catch and distance these guys. Still a 1/3 of the season to be played!!!

    These guys have had all the luck on their side. They must have desperate lives though with that amount of luck in a game, we have a saying in France "lucky at the games unlucky in love" :pac:.

    More seriously though, with such teams and decisions they're ahead of a disastrous GW. CS have been extremely generous in the past couples of GWs. They will dry up again at some point. And they'll get destroyed by the blanks/DGWs with the teams they currently have.

    In fairness, the way I see it is you'll make up your whole ground on them on 1 single GW when will have abandoned them. You just have toe patient and keep playing sensible :cool:.

    Could you link that team, may I ask just out of curiosity?
