But then we get them all back
With their price drops

Might bounce back up again on the way to 33.

Green&Red

Everyone talking about Jiminez being the bargain of the season but Rondon isn’t far behind. Brought both of them in my WC GW23, 57 and 52 points respectively and I’d Rondon for an 11pt captain haul.

For comparison over the same
Auba 30
Bobby 32
Vardy 46
Rashford 34
Only Aguero on 65 beats them

I think i'm going to TC Kun this week if their game vs Cardiff is rescheduled to make it a dgw. He'll be well rested after not being selected for ARG over the int'l break. Also, he hasn't started any of their FA cup games so you'd imagine Jesus will get the nod again in the FA cup semi which will be just a few days after the Cardiff game(assuming it is re-scheduled for this gw).

I’m off the same mind but I will be well short of DGWers
Cant see a better chance of a TC though
Tough call

The secret sausage scored 94 this week so the overall is now -

My partner’s team, ahem, aka secret sausage is proving there’s always time and also aggression can work -

GW 24 - 1.1m

GW 25 - 631k

GW 26 - 485k

GW 27 - 376k

GW 28 - 235k

That team had been hovering between 700k and 1m for 20 weeks.

GW 30 - 113k

Haven’t had Salah for any of that improvement period.

Have 7 players for next week and 2 FT’s.

Will continue to pick differentials over the coming weeks when using WC and BB.

UPDATE -

GW 31 - 78k

Secret Sausage just won’t stop.

57 (-4) this week with only 10 players.


Now only 30k behind my own team.

The Sausage is Salah free.

But I still have him in my team.

Salah really has held me back. This ‘fear’ bollocks just has to stop. I have to remember this for next season.

Last January I sold Salah for Mane and it killed me.

I sold Salah this season, the week of his hat-trick, and then bough him straight back.


But that is some progress by the Sausage.

Still has WC and FH left too.

That is amazing progress. Gives hope to us all. Salah fear has cost me a lot and having so much invested in one player has had a worse impact than his non performance.

That's them ahead of me now which is pretty depressing given the gap was ~1.1m in gw24! It's like in glass where one super hero gets born in response to another the way the two seasons dovetailed since gw24!

Real Madrid interested in buying Anderson from West Ham. I'm guessing they haven't been playing FPL over the last couple of months.

If they played FPL it would be with new accounts every week to try and be the highest points scorer for that week

Spending all their money on expensive attackers and needing Julien Flaubert as bench cover

I know it's bad form to wish injury on anyone but if Arry could do his hamstring it would make my life easier.

With EU voting to abolish DST and UK not, the regular GW deadline for Irish viewers will be 10:30am Saturday morning this time 2 years.

Gonna be strange having 2pm Saturday kickoffs rather than 3pm

Still involved but hasn't won a cap since the World Cup group stages.

Apparently does a Friday interview with MUTV so hopefully we get some news from that.

I think I’ll get Lindelof in for AWB now.
May also do Duffy for Kola and bench Dunk.

Wow! Was not expecting TC to be double FH.

The FH is a differential I’m itself. Here was Mr thinking about being too templately

I guess those two City fixtures convinced a lot of people to TC Aguero (or Sterling).

And after Aguero's international break rest they could be right
