Game week 23 match day thread

Paully D

Can't believe Forster appears to be escaping criticism for that goal. A shockingly weak hand on the ball.

Think you're having a bad GW? Spare a thought for this poor guy. 40 points sitting on the bench. :pac:

Honestly, I think someone ****ed with his team, in which case 'poor guy' is right. He's been doing really well, so why suddenly play 5 defenders from two teams?

All the better for me. Excited to see where my 93 will get me up to (was 544 at the start of the GW)

It's saying 111 but I have found it wildly inaccurate tbf.

What's really interesting is that on logging in it had last GW's team saved which would have scored 44, my new WC team got almost 50pts more...

manual_man

84(-4) once the game updates, JWP goal would have been the icing on the cake, but very nice

Honey Monster

Poxy goal meant Forster and Clyne cleanie gone.

Some weeks I find it accurate and others not so much. It's hard not to look at it though!

How many points total after today? I'm expecting to be ~200 and have 1410 points.

Cazorla(c) not looking good so far.

Looking pretty epic now though!
Had it on him all week and stupidly changed to Pelle at 11:29 after reading on here about Pelle's form.

Should be 91 after bonuses.

While I was celebrating France Handball World title I just discovered that Bertrand put a dampener on my overall great week. Seems like the FPL Gods don't want me to reach 100. Second time I could have and I didn't.

Great week though Jones & Berty should have made it better. Every little helps and counts.

That was a week where the expensive defence utterly failed :eek: :mad: :rolleyes:. Terry 2 pts, Jones 2 pts, Berty -1 pts. 3 pts altogether. My defenders transfers are sooooooo catastrophic lately. Baines. Zab. Jones. And now Berty. Please make it end :pac:...

sheroman01

70 (-4)

The Good:
- Good score overall
- Gained 6pts on my lead in my main league
- Bringing in Giroud and captaining him


The Bad:
- Lost again in FSA Boards cup
- Cahill and Chadli not starting
- 13 pts on bench (Panti and Wassi). Should have played Panti over Heaton. Wassi due to come in for Cahill

I'm in a crisis for next week. Sanchez, Alderweirled injured and Cahill, Chadli not starting games. Will probably have to take another hit next week.

How bad was it? It is such a frustrating game that's for sure! There is only so long you go with well there's always next week.

Not so bad. Just sold Silva for Puncheon at a hit and have Bertie. Just extremely frustrating

Bertrand gone from 9 points to -1 in a matter of minutes

Have to admit I scrolled back through this thread expecting this kind of post... Makes it worse but in the meantime feels like I made the right choice anyhow.

Sorry if it was already covered. But straight red = 3 games out?

1412

Lemlin

Will finish the week on 63 points. Last minute changes yesterday morning were Bellerin (12) and Di Maria (5) to Johnson (2) and Bertrand (-1).

16 point swing right there!

Still, last year I had a brutal first week after my WC (took out Cabaye and he scored two) but in future weeks it propelled me into the top 300.

A WC can't be judged on one week alone. Doubt I'll get back into the top 10k this week. Was at 13k last night.

Rikand

Will finish the week on 66 points once the bonus for Santi comes in and Lucas is subbed in for Sanchez. A good score, but probably won't be a great one.

Another captaincy fail. Bottled it on Cazorla and went for Pelle

100% agree. Said it yesterday in other words. That's what happened with my first WC this year.

Despite Jones, Foster & Berty, my WC mainly worked this time though :cool:. Just a few adjustments needed.

Just a tad frustrated with what I could have gained this GW (after 4 bad ones in a row).

spock.

91(-12) Predicted 42k rise to 66k.

Maybe 150 at best, but you should definitely be top 200

Benimar

84 post WC

The good: Playing PVA over Terry. Leaving out Sanchez and bringing in Santi and also captaining Giroud.

The bad: ADM over Silva, not a massive difference this week but feels like I backed the wrong horse. Bertrand losing 10 points in 7 minutes.

The ugly: I have 9 of my starting 11 away from home next week!

I'd take that and be delighted.
Really getting my captains right these weeks. Downing last time, Cazorla this. All I need to do is come on the GW thread and say 'come on Captain x' and they seem to respond :pac:

70(-4)
Oh what could have been.

Ziegler1988

20 point swing within a few minutes for this Bertrand(c) :pac:

77 all in once the subs come in...happy with it but bit dissapointed with southampton losing the cleanie but good week overall

Fear Ciarrai

Anybody else having trouble accessing the FF app for android? When I try to log in I get message "check internet connection" Internet connection is good!

Necronomicon

Had a decent enough day but having brought Pelle in for Kane in my WC all I feel is regret. Proof if needed that form > fixtures, always.

Iused2likebusts

65 -4. The good 9 of this gws matches. The bad the arsenal game.

FutureGuy

90 all out is the perfect rebound from last week.

As hinting to earlier, had I bought Cazorla in for Sanchez, I would have sold Kane for Pelle and I would not have brought in Bellerin.

Betrand losing his clean sheet was badly needed.

Ooh just noticed the Bertrand red.

CrabieCrawford

75 for the week, happy with that, would have been even happier if Bertrand had got those extra 10 points.

Bertrand is also costing me a transfer this week
I'm thinking Clichy, anyone got any suggestions?

I wouldn't do Clichy I'd say Kolarov will start. Then Clichy will start the midweek game against Stoke.

Bellerin. Should see a few rises.

That would be my choice but I have 3 Arsenal already

sheroman01

How long is Flippe Luiz out for? Shoudn't Aspi be nailed on for at least the next GW or 2? Need to get rid of Cahill or Alderweireld.

Clyne?

KevIRL

Leader of one of my mini leagues scored 111, a game week rank of 98! He had Bertrand as well so could have been even higher

billymitchell

See tbe guy with the top score in the game this week had Kane on the bench?

qwabercd

75 all in and up to 2.8k. Delighted with that after a ropey Saturday. A measly return of 3 points from my GK and defenders!

KevIRL

Up almost a thousand places to 5533. Still can't break into the top 5k

As suspected; both FFfix and yourself (less so you) were a bit ambitious.
93 leaves me with 1412 total and an OR of 210.

The top 200 will have to wait until next week :cool:

FHFC

Horrible horrible wildcard. So many silly mistakes, over complicating things.

Time out needed.

60 all out, a wildcard 'bounce' down 600 places to 1.4k and several players in my team I don't want to be there.

Mint Sauce

78 pts.

Happy ****ing out. Even if i did get the captaincy choice slightly wrong.

Edit

Just noticed Bertrands Red Card.

I dropped 52 places to 230, pretty surprised by that. It would have taken 75 pts to get a grey arrow!

Lemlin

Only fell 2k places. Delighted with that. At 8k. Wasn't expecting to stay in the top 10k.

Also, closed the gap on my rival by 6 points. He has Dummett, Bertrand and Costa so could need a hit next week too.

WC could have gone so much better but I'm still happy with it.

madma

15k to 6k damn bertrand getting sent off dented the great week

spock.

Up from 108k to 67k. First green arrows since GW17 :P

manual_man

Booya! rise of 30k places, back in to the top 50k

F1ngers

Rose 90K, from 290K to 200K. :pac:

honeybear

92 points (yummy!)

G1032

My 70 (-4) sees me drop 82 places. 17,000.

Swiper the fox

Up to 825, first time ever ending a week with only thee figures
