Triple-captained Rashford with United's DGW at home...

Was about to do this, but Haaland's coming double gamesweek has more potential for a hat-trick, so I'm holding out for that.

Two weeks in a row no bonus points for Trippier, I’ve jinxed him!

GreatEx · « **Reply #5802 on:** February 11, 2023, 09:56:06 pm »

I was this close to swapping Mo for Maddison but baulked at the last minute. Looks like Jurgen isn't only one with a loyalty problem!

I did this and obviously got screwed. Haaland doesn't look like he'll be fully fit for midweek but you imagine he will be risked anyway in virtually a title deciding game.

Shows how much of a gamble the game is. If he doesn't play or score vs Arsenal I think I'm done in my league - I wouldn't have any real chips left to attack.

My principled stance of no Mancs is killing me this season. Only person in the world without Rashford at this point.

yeah this business of refusing to pick United players is just cutting your nose off to spite your face.

I get we hate them but its not like you have to wear their jersey, buy a season ticket, get a tattoo and name your first born after one of their players.

Thankfully it doesn’t affect much in my family league, but I’m buggered in the work one.

GreatEx · « **Reply #5811 on:** February 15, 2023, 08:07:46 pm »

The FPL site has received a rare upgrade, I've only just started looking around but a few nice touches:

- match details include full stats of all players, not just a summary of who got goals, bonus points, etc.
- player info page gives useful stuff like form rankings, last 3/ next 3 etc
- player game week history is much clearer whether they won , lost or drew

So far so good

Cruiser · « **Reply #5812 on:** February 17, 2023, 03:46:11 pm »

Are people sticking with Martinelli?

I'm tempted to bring in Mahrez for him

He's not done anything in 6 games but has a double gameweek coming up. Only problem is I can see Trossard coming in for him soon as no one else would be dropped from their attack.

I can see everyone going Haaland captain again this gameweek - Rashford will obviously score again but he only seems to score one goal each game.

Just seen Man City’s lineup.

Pep has decided to fuck me in the ass one more time.

Had Nunez as captain but changed it to Toney at the last minute.

Really disappointed with Brentford/Toney yesterday. Was expecting a return from him.

10:59 I swapped the armband from Haaland to Rashford.

Lost a head to head by a point. Comes on late and gets booked. ARSEHOLE

Worked out well

paulrazor · « **Reply #5820 on:** February 20, 2023, 02:24:53 pm »

I strongly debated to do the same but seeing Haaland up against Forest I decided not too

Vigo looking prick

Brought in Alexander-Arnold and captained Nunez. Expecting 100+ points.

gerrardisgod · « **Reply #5823 on:** February 24, 2023, 07:35:10 pm »

My first double gameweek player already on the bench and missing game time

Lopetegui is every bit as bad as old bongo head for leaving players out.

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #5824 on:** February 24, 2023, 07:35:57 pm »

Missed the deadline because who knew this shite game would be chosen for Friday night tv. Shame as a rare week for me where not having Rashford won’t cost me!

I’ve got 4 players not playing at all, and 5 playing double headers. Hopefully net out even if Liverpool do the business.

Grobbelrevell · « **Reply #5825 on:** February 24, 2023, 10:33:10 pm »

Same, Nick.

The killer is I spent about two hours across the last couple of days messing about deciding on transfers. In the end, decided to leave it until Saturday morning...

Like you, I have 7 playing.

Not happy.

Oh, I'm much braver than that, I brought in a Liverpool defender (VVD replacing one of my obligatory 2 SAFC defenders). Also gave Mo the armband. Didn't bother with Wolves or toffees.

Cruiser · « **Reply #5827 on:** February 25, 2023, 12:58:32 pm »

^ Did the same with VVD

Bypassed the midfield altogether and went for Nunez as Mitrovic was injured.

Saka captain.

Virg got the bonus chocolates though, so all good I guess.

UntouchableLuis · « **Reply #5830 on:** February 26, 2023, 09:57:24 am »

Got 49 points so far with Kane, Saka (c), Martinelli, White, Trentand maybe Darwin to play again.

Darwin not playing was a blow, can't see him being ready for Wolves either.

Went Saka captain as thought he'd get at least an assist yesterday. Everton home is a game he should be doing something but Arsenal lost to Everton a few weeks ago.

I'm making small ground back in my league but not enough, really need my differentials to be doing more.

My work league is a joke. I’m 2nd bottom, about 200 points ahead of someone who clearly hadn’t touched their team in months and about 150 behind the next few people who all have Rashford and got on the Trippier bandwagon early. Absolutely no prospect of me changing position from now til the end of the season. This is how it must feel to be someone like Wolves.

Somehow got 54 so far, with 5 (Alisson, Zinchenko, Bueno, Odegaard and Martinelli) to play again.

Could've gone worse, albeit a few ahead of me in my league have 9 left to play...

90 from 8 with tonight’s bonuses to come and have Salah, Odegaard and Martinelli. Would be even better had Darwin’s goal not been ruled out. Baldy Manc prick.
