    You have 37 minutes of unlimited transfers left if you want to tinker.

    Oh I know, playing this for years. Not a lot of options around the 7m mark though. Had Saka in both my teams. I can do Darlow and Soucek in for Saka and Ryan in one of them. Not gone on Ryan at all. Anytime I had him last year he never kept a clean sheet.

    I think you can but you forfeit any points your players would have got today? Try after the early games are finished.

    When are Sky MOTM announced usually?

    Edit: Just read the rules (duh) it's the MOTM in the match report on Sky Sports website :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,353 ✭✭✭Porthallian


    "You are able to make changes to your captains as many times as you like, right up to the deadline of each match day."

    Sorry for the noob question, but my captain is Salah. If he get 2 points, does this mean I can change it to Werner? Or have I interpreted the rules all wrong? Thanks

    You have a captain for everyday so you will have Salah as well.

    Wow! That's some difference from the FPL game. My other team I have Salah today, Son tomorrow and Pulisic Monday. Excellent.
    Thank you sir!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,148 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds


    Hopefully Willian gets MOTM.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,543 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    What’s a good score for today?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,589 ✭✭✭patmac


    86 top of the Boards league and 853rd in the world, have Lloris, Doherty and Vardy (c) today and Jimenez captain tomorrow. HEWT


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Am I correct in saying if I transfer a chelsea player in for a chelsea player that hasn't played it counts for this week and he'll play for me Monday?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,654 ✭✭✭DJIMI TRARORE


    Yes, but wait till Chelsea team is announced

    U might want to check the league, looks like 79 is leading 😊

    Think I am top for the moment mainly thanks to getting rid of Saka and Ryan for Soucek and Darlow after the Arsenal team sheet was announced yesterday. This is the great thing about this game, always wait for the team sheets for the 1st match of the day before making any decisions you have to make.

    Does it count as one of the 40 allowed transfers?

    Would I be best to transfer in someone for Stuart Armstrong who didn't play? Oh and Pieters aswell?
    I could have Justin and Diangana/Walcott

    You have to weigh up whether you want to use transfers on removing them. Why would you have had Pieters this weekend if he wasn't going to play? He has a game in hand now in theory.

    Yeah I'll think I'll just save the transfers. Didn't realize Armstrong was injured. And the Pieters one was just a brain fart, I set my team once and didn't look at it again.

    How long typically before people tend to dump their underperforming team?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Considered how much I messed up I'm sitting on 78 & 58


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,654 ✭✭✭DJIMI TRARORE


    Despite pool*3 def I'm on 77,hewt


  • Registered Users Posts: 523 ✭✭✭Donegal1234


    Somehow my captain in my first team never saved across. Will just have to focus on my second team like last season.

    I made a bolox of my second team already. Somehow had a brainfart last night thinking City played tonight and transferred in KDB for Son. Realised straight away :)

    The way spurs are playing hopefully you don’t lose too many points


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    I missed the news that Silva won't be available for a week or 2. Bad start for me.

    I did pick Trossard though, he's looking sharp.

    Me too. The second team that I threw together in about 2 minutes is doing better than the one I actually spent time on. Typical.

    95 and 101. I’m not completely familiar with Sky scoring just yet but that seems really good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    108 and 64 here happy days

    I think an average score of 90 last season would have beaten Donegal1234 and won the 50k. That's a great start.

    Poor 1st gw for me. Things can change very quickly in this game though. There was good argument for going without both Salah/Vardy. You can't account for 2 pens each. Just one of those things. Lick your wounds and move on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,916 ✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Wow, Patmac steaming ahead on 144.

    89 here, had a great Saturday, an OK Sunday and a non existent Monday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,645 ✭✭✭✭Timberrrrrrrr


    Had a terrible GW1 so have tweaked my team and made 3 transfers, I usually like to save all transfers until at least GW5 to give my team a chance but honestly I was so distracted this year that I only gave myself an hour to pick my team before kick off.

    Hopefully the tweaks will work and I can get a few more points this week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,173 ✭✭✭Dearg81


    Vinagre and Thiago Silva stinking out my team. I think I'll keep Silva and ditch Vinegar for some one that plays. Holding is the best shout if Luiz is out for the next 3 games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    1 point off the top 100 patmac :pac: :pac: Brilliant start have you used any transfers?

    No not yet, nosebleed territory, not sure what to do next, so any advice welcome.

    At a quick glance, I'd say you could ditch Zaha, and obviously you'll want to get KdB in. You could do something like take out Zaha after the Saturday game for someone like Jorginho(nice differential, on pens, often hits the passing bonus) or Henderson who play on Sunday, and then take out Vardy for KDB on the Monday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭claw


    104 and 65 here, the difference between Salah and no Salah. Happy enough with the start though.

    I would start planning how to spend your 50k and skip all the boring stuff in between.


  • Registered Users Posts: 523 ✭✭✭Donegal1234


    Top 10  - 35.6
    Top 100 - 36.5
    Top 1000 - 37.6
    Top 5000 - 38.1

    Some players fairly using up them tranfers.
