Shows why the game is corrupt when he’s receiving two bonus pts for scoring a solitary goal in a 4-2 defeat and picking up a yellow. Unless he played a blinder he should be nowhere near the bonus points. Richie picked up two assists and got 4 BPS less?!

so my plan is that Manes explosion into form with 5 straight four goal games will catapult me from 2.3 million all the way to #1.

Always good to have a plan....

Edit New plan! Ive got Dallas Son and Bamford lets just be having that first half again and and again and again.....i dont remember ever having 3 players in a game and they all scored in the first half thats crazy.

Another week, another dropping of Dallas to the bench

paulrazor · « **Reply #3929 on:** May 8, 2021, 01:22:19 pm »

Took out bamford for first time in ages so I knew he'd score. Though hopefully Watkins does the job on a double

Off to a good start with Dallas, son and iheanacho

zimmie'5555 · « **Reply #3930 on:** May 8, 2021, 02:08:08 pm »

Also sold Bamford after doing nothing for a ages, benched Son and Dallas too, obviously . . .

Same. Think this is the 3rd or 4th time I've benched him (have had him since the start) and every time he's scored. At least I made him first sub, and Hameth Rodriguez is in my starting squad with an orange marker, so I may get away with it.

Holy Jackpot, ive got 78 points against an avg of 25, ranked 154 on the gm wk

obv that will change because everybody got c mancs for a 3x game week and i have none but still, nice reading. c-mo, mane, trent, dallas, wilson, bamford, son, they all delivered. My fave was mitchell that i brought in because he was 3.8, threw him in for a double gw just in case and he plays and gets 6.

Think i may have left my charge a little late though

GreatEx · « **Reply #3933 on:** May 9, 2021, 01:39:19 am »

Nice one, Bob. I'm gutted that Hamez wasn't listed as very doubtful until after the deadline, because I had Eze lined up as my (free) second transfer but I got thrown by the Manc triple fixture and didn't want to dump Hamez after one week. Caution is a bitch. I also held on to Mount, which didn't work out, and the Kabak injury news also came too late. I did have Mendy as GK, at least!

Taken my biggest hit ever (-12) but got 7 players with a DGW and 3 with a TGW so i'm hoping for a very good score

But, for GW36 i only have 7 players playing

-12 hit not paying off so far

He played and got a red after the full time whistle.

paulrazor · « **Reply #3937 on:** May 9, 2021, 02:47:17 pm »

Ah right sorry

Flashscore said he wasn't on the pitch. Assumed he was an unused sub.

Sold Bamford for Watkins. Dropped Dallas for Konsa. Dropped Son for Maddison. Captained Iheanacho and went with no Man Utd players. A perfect weekend for me then . . . I'd say at least I left Dunk on the bench but he still outscored two of my starting defenders. Just hoping for damage limitation from the rest of the round.

Dan The Man 28373 · « **Reply #3940 on:** May 9, 2021, 08:57:28 pm »

For once, all my selections have come up trumps so far: Watkins has been the only negative (literally with his red card). 70pts in total & still got 9 players involved midweek (decided to put Bruno Penalty as my captain, like many others no doubt).

105pts in 1 week has been my record haul so far this season.

I know someone already pointed out that Maupay played, but there have been instances where an unused sub has received a yellow or red card, and it has indeed activated the player in fantasy, so you would receive a score of -1 or -3 instead of an auto sub.

My mate at work, whom I just overtook after 33 weeks in arrears, also captained Watkins. A red in the first leg of a double, brutal! I am laughing my dick off, naturally.

Also, love how Bruno always gets the 3 bonus points whenever he converts a penalty.

Not sure you can complain too much after Mendy getting gifted pen save points at the weekend

Dan The Man 28373 · « **Reply #3944 on:** May 13, 2021, 11:30:30 pm »

126pts in the end, goals/assists/clean sheets all over the team. And that was achieved with only 9 men Watkins & Ayew contributing the grand total of 1 point!!

Chose the right game week to have Fernandes as captain

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #3945 on:** May 13, 2021, 11:56:52 pm »

106 points for me. Played bench boost and 3 of them got a point each. Also had Watkins and Christensen who only played a half so did well in the end. Captain Mo, Trent and Jota bailed me out tonight. Not a Manc in sight. Lovely stuff.

LiamG · « **Reply #3946 on:** May 14, 2021, 04:44:26 pm »

119 for me

Bobinhood · « **Reply #3947 on:** May 16, 2021, 02:17:05 pm »

Holy Mitchell, Batman. Brought him in for the bench at 3.8, he scores me 20 points in 2 gw's.

I’ve had all season til I sold him a couple of weeks ago! Only got about 8 playing this week, down to 7 with Jota out. Currently on 14 with just Trent and Mo to come. Decided to captain Ings this week, went off injured after about 50 mins. Played a blinder!

Can’t wait until the end of the FPL season. It’s felt like a marathon the last few weeks and my squad are dropping like flies!

Mo has sort of saved my GW

bit of a disaster from DCL and Antonio

still top of cash mini league by about 20 points with 2 more to go! 😬

two weeks in a row id mitchell on the bench. lost to a fella in one league who got 17 points off his bench

salah captaining saved me

Pereira? Been in great form of late, set piece taker and playing against a team that may leave gaps in West Ham. Leeds next week too.

Am thinking him or Mount. End of season games between teams that have nothing to play for are frequently high scoring so I might pick Pereira. Although he is managed by Fat Sam and judging by yesterday's game, he still has no interest in actually playing any football.

Forgot about the midweek games just passed, which has probably put the final nail in my chances of even getting a top 3 spot in my league now. Currently in 4th, 31 points off 3rd spot (1st and 2nd are over the hill at this stage).

Anyway, decided to take an 8 point hit and get Trent and Kane in. Go hard or go home. Or something.

It'll probably backfire, but both should have something riding on the last couple.

Going to wait on Jota and keep him on the bench (Klopp said today that he has "a tiny chance" of making the weekend). If he doesn't i'll switch him out for someone after this round.

Agreed! It's two seasons on the run now that I've been flying going into the last couple of months, and then dropped like an absolute stone. Last year I was about 100 clear at the top of my league with 3 or 4 games left and somehow conspired to end up in 4th on the last day. This year it's looking similar. Need to work on the stamina for next season!

I've logged in to replace Jota and it's telling me the game is being updated. Thought we had an hour before the first kick off to tinker?
