another average week for me, my front 3 of bobby, zaha and aguero just aren't getting me the points i expected and my midfield bar salah is doing crap also

Tempted to wildcard and get Hazard and Kane in!

doing a draft in work

Bobby was one of my first picks which hasnt worked out well, to make matters worse my first pick was de bruyne. for some reason someone offered me a trade today, b.silva for de bruyne so i bit

3 weeks in and still not hit 100 points

my ordinary team had a bad one in week 2, wan bissaka red carded, costing salah captain a goal and bobby an assist, plus kenedy missed a last min penalty. you are talking maybe 25 plus points there incl bonuses

Jammy bastards

Cooking along steadily at about 60-70 points a week. Hard choice for me this week though - do I make Alonso my captain or stick with Salah?

Or I could give it to Silva. City will likely run rampant against the Toon.

Three weeks in a row in the 40s for me which is poor. Lloris announced injured just after I made my free transfer for the week too. Take the -4 hit? My sub keeper probably won’t play al season.

Alonso is a bit of weird one

Bernardo or David Silva?

injured or is it glug glug vroom vroom *makes walking impression with fingers* thump thump?

If you have the money and dont have three non city players you could go with ederson. A clean sheet and you are up two points

how long is he injured for?

3 weeks in and Wildcard played already

Now got a team that features Robbo, TAA, Mendy, Pereyra, Salah, Moura, Kane and Aguero

Cheap goalie (Ryan) and a couple of Wolves players (Boly and Jiminez) make up the first team.

Kept Kenedy in the squad despite his horror show last week. He is usually a bloody good player.

Rolling the triple captain this week. Aguero has a great record against Newcastle, that said ive probably just jinxed it.

I was thinking Alonso because he's so far the highest ranked defender and Chelsea are playing Bournemouth at home. Seems a good shout for a goal and or an assist.

Bernado Silva is in my team. He only picked up 2 points against Wolves but, well, no offence to our resident Toon Army, but it's Newcastle innit?

I might swap out Alisson for Ederson, but I don't want to jinx our defence

I know he has a great record against them but wouldn't it be better to play triple captain in a double game week...having said that it could go either way doing that too.

I didn't even know that was a thing...So in a double game week the triple captain applies to both games? Still time to cancel it, i need to check what double game week looks like for my captains!

Yes.
Later on in the season all teams will play two games in one fantasy football game week. Maybe around Christmas or just after and on one or two other stages later into the new year. Of course your player could play one and be rested for the other but not always...

If you look at fixtures on fantasy website, no indication for any double game weeks this year, other issue with risking that is especially for big player, resting and rotating especially if in Europe still too if and when a double game week comes along

It is never indicated on the fantasy website this early in the season. Basically, because there is no way to know right now. It will change once the dgw and bgw are decided after the cups reach the advanced stages.

Yup. Also, I am regretting not getting Mane at the season start. Went with Firmino, Salah and TAA.

If i have 2 players that didn't play in my starting 11, and i have 3 subs and 2 of them played, will the subs who played replace the ones in my starting 11 regardless of order?

23 points sitting on the bench $:-\$

I had him but 2 Palace defender’s. All my subs don’t play at the moment and on course for another mediocre week even with Bobby and Sadio. Doing shite this season.

Red Beret · « **Reply #347 on:** September 1, 2018, 08:28:29 pm »

Bloody hell, crap week for me. Making Alonso captain has kept my arse out of the fire to a point. Need to jettison Bernado Silva for de Silva methinks, even if it costs me points.

Rosario · « **Reply #348 on:** September 1, 2018, 11:49:08 pm »

45 with 2 players left to play so should keep my average for the year above 60 points a week. Keep leaving so many points on my bench this season though, another 18 this week

robgomm · « **Reply #349 on:** September 2, 2018, 10:49:54 am »

Just a dud week for many. Aguero blanking has saved me from getting dumped down the rankings in all my tables.

I was coin tossing captaining Hazard and Salah, went with Salah because he's Salah but he missed a gilt edged chance and was barely in the game. Really disappointing. His underlying numbers are strong though, so I'm not too worried.

Chelsea are going to be a useful side to mine with Sarri in charge, he'll be sticking to his team most weeks. Hazard I suspect will have a great year.

Yes.

But only if Schrodingers cat is fully material at the time, with no missing electrons whatever. Otherwise any bonus points are void.

Expected a disaster week this time around, just not had time to sort a wildcard out. And so far it's proven to be...a disaster.
