This was indeed the right answer to the Aguero replacement question.

Ya I think ill give him another chance too, or he will no doubt burn me!

km79

Yep the guy who was behind me just confirmed he forgot to change his team
73 before probably 12 bonus
2 FT next week
I hate this game

Ziegler1988

Alonso manages to keep a bap ; his first non-attacking return bonus point. 46 in the end, drop to 7.5k predicted.

Trimm Trabb

Having been taking hits to good effect for weeks but bottled Austin to Origi at weekend - very much regret not going for it. Got stung by Hazard, Evans and Anichebe disappearing from my team this evening so only had 10 playing.

37 in all, glad Saturday rolls around quickly so can forget about all the shoulda coulda woulda's.

YAHOO!!!!
Up to 38 now

Iused2likebusts

61 no hits delighted with that. Strong front 8 was a big help for me as I had origi to come in.

Sooner or Later

47 if the bonuses stay the way they are.
Should see green arrows judging by the scores here

OneColdHand

Thought I had another complete disaster, but looking like 52 (no hits)which seems pretty average (if not slightly better) around here. Happy with average this week!

Overall average is 48, top 10k is 52, according to FPL Discovery.

Shanotheslayer

On the brightside. I won the monthly league ( We pay out per 4 game weeks) Looks like I hit roughly 250ish in 4 GW's very happy with that.

pimpmyhat

I see origi is now yellow flagged

spock.

Mane assisted 3 assists and hit the post

km79

And the final insult
Both grant and VVD get 3 bonus as they tied along with Martina

Good night and God bless us all

Waow! Great score!

But. Don't you own both Hazard & Nacho? If the case you're being selective with the truth since your strong front 8 made no difference this GW .

raiders11

Looks like 71(-4) after BPs, happy enough with that considering had no Llanna or Rondon and Captain Kane didn't help either....

It did because my sub was origi rather than a fletcher or capoue. I got francis pts off the bench aswell.

Chesty08

69 all out and another captain fail.. might jus leave it on Sanchez as autopivk!

paulie21

52 with Williams 11 sitting on the bench. Ah well

Are you absolutely sure Origi would have been the one to make way for the cheap bench fodder? Would you have gone 3-5-2 with e.g. Anichebe? Wouldn't you have preferred the more traditionnal 3-4-3 with one of your Chelsea mid making way for the cheap bench fodder guy?

FHFC

This team will make you all sick. Very sick

My head hurts:eek: Ive 8 good options and am happy to pick the best 7 every week. Its a strategy I like to use at this time of the year and will now move nacho on to give myself another headache next week. My plan last gw was to bench Kane but then austin got injured so I could hold him and then play Kane. My plan for this week was to bench siggy but due to doubts over pedro, nacho and origi starting I decided to play siggy and bench origi.

Watching highlights. As really should have had 1 goal, maybe 2.

Who?

Rikand

watching MOTD - Phillips really is a super player.

And both those brunt assists were assisted by Philips

Rikand

And McCauley almost with a superb own goal - we dont realise how lucky we were

Yeah I know I'm just playing a bit with you :P. But I found your "strong front 8 paid off this week" a bit OTT when you actually only had a strong front 6 this week .
Also you "compared" Origi with Capoue/Fletcher. Which is wrong. Origi will have made way for Anichebe or similar in your team. If you were owning Capoue/Fletcher that's one of your mid who would have made way. Hence my "no diff this week" .

But with rotation kicking it's a good tactic. I just rarely got it really working for me.

Anyway, what am I talking about? I can't even make a simple decision between Firmino & Eriksen despite the latter having form and fixtures for him (and being a personal favourite of mine - 2 years ago he was a key player for making me win my private league)...

siblers

Looked like Zlatan elbowed Cabaye off the ball, doubt anything will come of it

entropi

64 (-4) it seems, with no Hazard or Nacho playing and possibly 2 points from the bench that will push it to 66.

Nah... This is a fake team generated by an FPL bot to all make us believe it's possible and continue playing. It's like the lotto. People play 'cause there's millions to be gained (they don't consider the infinitesimal chance to actually win it). If chances were a lot higher but only a couiple of k€ to be gained no one would play. :pac:.

Deco99

Gundogan injury make yaya interesting?

Shanee.

64 points with Costa as captain. Gonna change to Eriksen as he seems to be finding good form. Subbed in Origi for Nacho

13 from 2, 9 playing tonight MOTD beckons see ye at 11:45

Francis comes in for Anchibe, headed with the dogs for a walk with a spring in my step, thinking I'm averaging 78 points here and might hit the ton. I thought 50 points will be a disaster. Ended up with 40 and could have been worse!

F1ngers

I tried to make a "GW 17 Captains thread" - no joy.
Anyone else want to try...

Klonker

62. Im up over 1m places the last 3 game weeks, have to be happy with that.

FHFC

By the way.

I propose a perma ban for Zerks for being the jinxiest fcker in the history of jinxing with his OP and thread title.

Kane was fcked from that moment on. Knew it at the time and nearly changed captain over it.

I'd normally agree but since I jinxed every single winner of the captain poll this season with my observation-made-theory, I guess I should just STFU :pac:...


BTW. 40 pts. Down 60+k to 228k.

246 points in last 4 GW'S that must be top 10K material ? :pac:

Looking over the quarterly game weeks I'm

GW 1-4: 212
GW 4-8: 211
GW 8-12: 193
GW 12-16: 246

Working out an over an average of 50 Per Week happy enough with that.

spock.

A rise of 234 places from 159k to 159k :pac:

Uggghhh...down to 400k...again :-(

Can't get any traction lately....getting hammered now as well in mini leagues and way off the pace in my work league where there is only one other FPL obsessive playing...and he's 20 points behind me lol

Iused2likebusts

Up from 310k to 230k with my 61.

Necronomicon

I have to be happy enough with 47 from 10 players and a captain fail, but disappointed that it was a drop of around 30k places, didn't think it would be that severe in a lowish scoring GW. Ibra out for Kane is haunting me. Finished up 147k.

Scorpion Sting

41 with a captain fail and 10 playing. My second red arrow in a row sees me drop from 83k in GW14 to my current position of 169k. Need to stop the rot now.

thunderdog

Slid 150,000 places with a score of 38. Surprised the average was so high. I was expecting around the low 40s. If you have a scan through the fsa h2h premiere league, not many scored over the average

Lol...I only got 34...Theresa Mannion definitely not needed for last night. I'll gladly leave my match thread input to this gw and never start another if it means any jinx is lifted.

tailgunner

63 (-4) thanks to some goalkeeping (Heaton) and defensive (Alonso, Brunt, Pieters) heroics. Everyone else bar Sanchez (c) blanked. Very strange gameweek!
