Anyone have a link to Ville Ronka's team (I know it won't be available to see until the gameweek loads)?

Handy being able to look at his team and see how many mistakes we made! Would love to hear from him just ridiculous how nailed he has the game.

Where did he finish last season

Having a horrible last minute conundrum between Mahrez/Gray and going 3-4-3 and going 4.5 cheapie/Zlatan and going 4-3-3 (a Burmley defender would be the 4th defender this week, probably Amat next week)

Answers on a postcard within the next 20 minutes people.

I had Zlatan in my team solid for last 2 weeks. After reconsidering fixtures and playing in a new league I dropped him for Vardy.

Mahrez/Gray for me if you're wildcarding early

SlickRic

Done since last night. Haven't changed it. Shocked tbh.

DDG
Stones VVD Friend
Hazard Lamela Mané Redmond
Aguero (c) Vardy Gray

Jako, Evans, Amat, Capoue

Mané is the wildcard really, as is no Utd or Arsenal attacking coverage. Banking on Mou concentrating on solidity rather than free scoring.

I already have Vardy so it's really whether I Leicester double today.

Within 5,000 I believe. He struggled for large parts of the season but exploded up the rankings towards the end (same as a lot of us).

GLaDOS

Site is really struggling

Anyway, decided on this:

Courtois
Shaw, Morgan, Friend
Lamela, Routledge, Redmond, Hazard
Aguero, Vardy, Ibra


Top Heavy, with a punty midfield, let's go :pac:

Paully D

I sense a free wildcard incoming :pac:

Am sure my team is still the way I left it at 1am this morning, amd that the captaincy is still on you know who, but site being down is leaving me slightly nervous!

splashthecash

submitting my team and got a backend error and have lost everything! ffs....:mad::mad::mad:

Finished with

Heaton
Valencia Stones VVD
Sanchez Lamela Oscar Redmond Firmino
Aguero Vardy

Starting the year with a 352, let's see how it goes.

tom_k

Looking like going with this

Heaton (Robinson)

Friend - Valencia - Stones (Amat - McAuley)

Hazard - Firmino - Deoufeleu - Lamela (Capuoe)

Gray - Aguero(C) - Ibra


Good luck all.

SantryRed

If anyone wants to make late changes, the app seems to be working fine.

EDIT: Actually it's not, it's not updating to the most recent team.

km79

unable to transfer out kone
I've a feeling that going to cost me .1 or .2 but if he ended up moving to everton I'd keep him after WC anyway

El Horseboxo

My captain changed from Agüero to
Redmond by itself. Changed it back and saved and got some error. Hope it stuck.

Also seen on FFS that a few people noticed their captains change.

1,450 was his ranking. Bloody hell.

spock.

Glad I had my team finalized last night!

siblers

Can't get on through the site or app, was gonna get rid of DDG for Foster but not a huge issue really.

FutureGuy

Foster
Valencia - Stones - Friend
Firminho - Mahrez - Redmond - Hazard
Gray - Aguero (c) - Vardy

Subs: Capoue, Amat, Kone

Best of luck everyone.

LightsStillOn

Sites and the app are no go for me so I guess I'm going with whatever I have and hoping for the best! Not 100% what my defence is looking like right now but Kun has the armband, all that matters really :pac:

don't think I can do this again next week!

sneachtafear

Trying to be ballsy and put Mahrez in as captain knowing full well I would change him to Aguero last minute. Then the site goes down. Lap of the Gods!!

Same here. But what an absolute disaster this is, surely they knew there was going to be a huge upsurge of activity on the site this morning but as usual, they weren't prepared. There'll be a GW2 wildcard now no doubt.

All very amateurish.

El festino

Can't get on..why oh why did I leave it so late.

It's done, it's over

Best of luck everyone.
May your gk's save a peno
Your defenders score goals
Your midfielders get the assists
And your strikers get hat tricks.


(And may it not be as crazy as last year!!!)

Shouldn't really given how late it went.
My team:

De Gea
Shaw Terry Stones Mee
Hazard Redmond Townsend
Aguero (c) Ibrahimovic Vardy

Subs: Jakupovic, Amat, Fletcher, Marney

SantryRed

I'm sorry lads, but anyone with the majority of their transfers and selections not done by 11am on the first day are asking for it.

Absolutely but if captains have changed that's a different story

Agree 100%. There's a mate of mine who always waits till the last minute to put in a team and i think he's been caught out. Absolutely no sympathy.

Very frustrating

There was a precedent set couple of seasons back, so it's likely.
You'd think after ditching the Ultimate game that they'd have extra servers available!

DAMN IT
wished I had risked it ta hell

Necronomicon

I had everything done and saved, but of course I'm getting a dose of paranoia now.

Also, have they changed the deadline again this year? Is it no longer an hour before KO, or is that just the traffic problems?

Wish I'd gambled on musa now

I know mine did for sure. As I had my team done last night and saved. Even took a screenshot after going back to the site last night to post elsewhere and didn't change anything.

Logged on just to glance at the team again and noticed it changed from Agüero a while later while reading FFS I seen some people say the same thing. Not sure how widespread it is.
