    Wrong forum

    Who? What? Why?

    You can only possible have James and Greenwood - why you would have a defender is beyond me giving how bad they have been

    Greenwood is only ever going to come on, doesn't matter who the manager is - doubt they would do much for him - indeed most managers probably wouldn't give him game time.

    Martial/Rashford maybe

    That's why fandom needs to be left in the other non fantasy world.

    One of my rivals has triple United defence because he's a fan. Might work out for him tonight though.

    I have McGuire and currently 431 points, you ?

    Goal for Matty longstaff (Williams)

    and like I said reason for not having a united defender....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,483 ✭✭✭macraignil


    Longstaff gives Newcastle the lead.

    What difference does it make how many points I have? I have 479 but it doesn't mean that my point is right or wrong.

    United can't defender, they are a shambles of a team, so your asking for trouble. Paying 5.5m for Maguire is madness.

    I’d be roughly the same with today’s points, that’s the point if you can comprehend

    You could be number 1 in world, or number 6m, but having a united defender is never going to be the correct call,

    You'd have a lot more if you didn't have 3 Utd players

    What are you scuttering on about?

    You're taking it very personally that United are sh1te FPL options which they are


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42,164 ✭✭✭✭Scorpion Sting


    Feck sake lads, quit the real football talk. Take that to the Soccer forum.

    You are totally missing the point it’s about points scored, not your reactionary opinion, I’m levelish points wise with you,do you not understand?

    Fair point, and I agree but I know so many players that pick unpopular players and are usually higher than the norm, more than one way to skin a cat etc,

    What is reactionary?

    As somebody else said you could be number 1 in world and still picking United defenders is a bad decision.

    I think you're the one struggling to understand that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,741 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    Joelinton one pointer lol. 48 isn’t bad tho

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Finish on 54 pts. Seems to be a healthy score.

    Pity about the Sterling captaincy fail. Wesley, Abraham, Mount and Pope the big heroes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    26

    And don’t even have my wild card.

    2 FTs for next GW after the Int window

    Hoping to break 30 points with this team

    Pope
    Otamendi, Kelly, Lundstram
    Cantwell, Son, Salah, Sterling, Mount
    Aguero(C) Pukki

    Got 40 points with it.

    HEWT I suppose


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,706 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    37, seems about average


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    My take from the Arsenal match:

    Auba suffered from a lack of service and was isolated at times. The midfield 3 just not creative enough. Pepe looks like his confidence is shot. Saka was bright spark and kept trying to make things happen. Poor overall team performance, they spent the last 10 minutes sitting back defending and were lucky not to concede. Won't be getting any of their players in based on what I saw today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,653 ✭✭✭DJIMI TRARORE


    A rip roaring 25 pts,HEWT


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


    56 points. 2 green arrows in a row after a gw6 wc.

    2 fts going into the the international break.

    Son and pukki out. Mount and Vardy in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,426 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    52 points.

    Wildcarded 3 weeks ago with an OR of 1.9m
    Up to 250k now and feeling a lot more respectable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,778 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007


    40 sees me drop 1500 places. sitting at 57,995. Happy enough 2 FT and plenty to ponder over the international break.

    49 so

    40 points gives me a 33k green arrow to 498k. Sterling letting me down once again with the captaincy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,480 ✭✭✭✭MEGA BRO WOLF 5000


    69 sees me jump to 169k overall. For once I picked a captain that got more than one or two points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,333 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    45 (-4) sees a small red 5.3k to 5.7k. Will take that after the hit and Kapkun fail.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,654 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    46 and at 1.2m. It's becoming a slog, can't remember the last time I had so many captain fails at the start of a season.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    48 for the gameweek which is above average. Mane over Salah.

    Sitting around 515k which is fine.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    45 was a 200k rise to 470k.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,595 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    Just inside top 40k. Got very lucky with that City result


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


    43 points

    788k

    The whole selling PVA for Fredericks thing pretty much sums up my relationship with this game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,569 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    47 points. Up to 5,924 Globally.

    Delighted with that considering I totally forgot to set my lineup or make the subs I had intended to this week as well as captain Salah returning zilch.
