No Mitrovic today

Transferred Cancelo in and moved Perreira to the bench as 3rd sub. Fuck this game.

UntouchableLuis · « **Reply #5722 on:** November 5, 2022, 03:56:46 pm »

Haaland captain. Cancelo in the side. Perreira 3rd sub. And even Raya managed to concede vs Nottingham Forrest.

What a season!

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #5723 on:** November 5, 2022, 05:07:00 pm »

Picked a good day to captain Cancelo!

GreatEx · « **Reply #5724 on:** November 5, 2022, 09:46:50 pm »

That (captain) KdB dive and scruffy Whoreland penalty at least gave me a ff boost.

3 points from 4 players so far.

But did you Captain Cancelo, like a crazy person??

FML.

82 points, captained Tripper, just shy of 500k in the world now.. huge jump from 1.1m last week

paulrazor · « **Reply #5728 on:** November 7, 2022, 03:06:02 pm »

60

Zaha on my bench

switched from Mo to Cyborg as captain

Lost a late clean sheet for Schar too

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #5729 on:** November 7, 2022, 03:10:55 pm »

So at the last minute I decided to captain Cancelo and take out Perreira for Ward-Prowse. Did have Haaland in the team. Also lost a Newcastle clean sheet late on.

A shite 39 points! Had I not changed my team from last week I’d have had about 15 more points I think.

GreatEx · « **Reply #5730 on:** November 9, 2022, 02:12:19 am »

I finally gave up on Ward Prowse, 10 weeks of sod all was too much to bear. Brought in Zaha, which worked, and have brought in Summerville for a bargain 4.4m.

paulrazor · « **Reply #5731 on:** November 9, 2022, 10:09:23 am »

Summerville looks a baller

just thinking, if its unlimited transfers during WC and you still have a wildcard you can probably use it this weekend and still get frees during WC

Emerald Red · « **Reply #5732 on:** November 10, 2022, 10:00:38 am »

For once I have the 15 players I want, I wouldn't change a thing,
but I'm sitting here with 2 free transfers and a wild card? $:-\$
Didn't realize I'd have to use the wild card so soon.

paulrazor · « **Reply #5733 on:** November 10, 2022, 10:15:34 am »

If it aint broke..................

I once used it for the sake of it, took out some Egyptian guy to load up on Liverpool defenders. Same fella I took out bangs in a Hat trick. So Malah or something.

Emerald Red · « **Reply #5734 on:** November 10, 2022, 11:05:38 am »

You're right, "If it ain't broke" ..... but sometimes it's hard doing nothing,
especially when 2 hours later you know exactly what you should have done.

Eternalsungod · « **Reply #5735 on:** November 10, 2022, 07:30:12 pm »

Ouch to the Cancelo-captainers. I went for Salah, and ended up with 75 points even with Cancelo in the squad. Very happy with that after four or five consecutive small red arrows.

Eternalsungod · « **Reply #5736 on:** November 10, 2022, 07:35:25 pm »

Alternatives for my team this week:

1. Solanke to Alvarez
2. Guehi to Perisic (forces me to bench either Almirón or Solanke)
3. Sánchez to Ramsdale (boring, but sensible?)

Any thoughts?

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #5737 on:** November 10, 2022, 08:09:18 pm »

I’ve done Saliba for Dier and Eze for Ward-Prowse (apologies in advance).

Eze like sunday morning and Saliba is boss.

I meant for the inevitable Ward-Prowse goal at Anfield now I’ve sold him.

Ah my own head was fecked from the FSG ownership thread, you have actually brought in Saliba and Eze (like Sunday morning) which is entirely sensible.

No idea what to do this week.

What happens with transfers during WC?

gerrardisgod · « **Reply #5742 on:** November 11, 2022, 09:52:52 pm »

Unlimited free transfers, basically another Wildcard.

Gone for Solanke, seeing as Mitrovic is out.

lionel_messias · « **Reply #5743 on:** November 12, 2022, 08:41:11 am »

So what's Haaland doing today?

Hmmmmmmmmm.

Would take a brave soul to go against Haaland captain today.

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #5746 on:** November 12, 2022, 09:04:07 am »

Just pondering whether to triple captain him. Only thing stopping me is that it could be an odd week pre World Cup.

Early kick off as well. May go against him getting a hatload of goals.

Emerald Red · « **Reply #5748 on:** November 12, 2022, 10:31:54 am »

Free Transfers 2
Play Wildcard

Very tempted but still resisting making changes
just another 30 minutes to deadline

Went with Salah for the first time in a while..

I've gone Haaland captain over Mo. Thank me when Mo scores 4 later.

GreatEx · « **Reply #5751 on:** November 12, 2022, 01:17:33 pm »

Everyone thank me for my last minute decision to dump Toney (you can curse me later for trading him for Darwin)

Cried it in.

And didn’t triple captain Haaland, but sadly did captain him over Darwin.

GreatEx · « **Reply #5756 on:** November 13, 2022, 12:04:20 am »

Crazy that Danny Ward is still priced at 4.1, Leicester has 5 clean sheets in their last 6. I haven't even bothered to replace the injured Kepa, Ward is super subbing the shit out of this mother.

paulrazor · « **Reply #5757 on:** November 14, 2022, 09:40:56 am »

forgot to play my wilcard as i spent about 3 hours trying to get Peter Kay tickets and forgot

Would have brought in Rodrigo, Kane and Almiron. Though I would have taken out Foden, luckily won a couple of head to heads

Plenty of time to work on these next changes

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #5758 on:** November 14, 2022, 10:26:09 am »

38 points. Two shite weeks in a row. Thank god for Darwin.

Smashed my Draft head to head though, seem to be doing better in that one than my actual team.

GreatEx · « **Reply #5759 on:** November 28, 2022, 02:03:28 am »

I signed up for my work's FIFA world cup fantasy game in the spirit of team harmony or whatever, even though I don't give a toss about this farce. Naturally I am kicking arse because that's how these things go, but my god I will never complain about the PL game again after dealing with this shocking implementation. Like so many shipping containers in the desert filled with unredeemed drink vouchers, this dog's breakfast of a game seems to be in permanent beta mode, with scores that remain wildly incorrect for long periods and tallies that don't match the scoring rules, team sheets full of players who weren't even selected (I had a brief frisson of concern when it seemed Thiago Alcantara had gone to Qatar after all)... come back premier league, all is forgiven!
