looking like 53 all out - meh

given how many spurs players scored today, probably average.

KevIRL · 23-12-2018 05:53PM

61 (no hits).

Grand score but missing capt hauls from Salah and Kane hurts. Worried about both starting on boxing day too. Especially Kane.

TitianGerm · 23-12-2018 05:54PM

85 points and then whatever bonus points Kane and Son get. Had Wilson starting over Billing so missed out on an extra 6 points but my best total of the season.

I'd say he will play. Got rested midweek. Plus last 20 today was training ground stuff

km79 · 23-12-2018 05:56PM

64
Back up to 30k mark again
HEWT

eh i dunno · 23-12-2018 05:58PM

66 and no hits but my captain only getting me 4 points is a let down

COH · 23-12-2018 06:00PM

77 no hits... Salah (c), Harry and Brooks the heroes.

Green arrows and looks like might sneak into the top 10k for the first time in 7 seasons of playing :eek:

Off now for a minimum of three bonus pints

- Merry Christmas everyone!

Benimar · 23-12-2018 06:00PM

62.

Not a bad score in itself, but sick I transferred Auba (c) to bring in Sterling (c). Would have had 84.

Lost ground in my ML too, because of Auba and Son.

extra gravy · 23-12-2018 06:05PM

48 and a drop to 70k. No Spurs a big rank killer.

Chesty08 · 23-12-2018 06:06PM

A measly 24 at the start of today. Son, Kane & Richy owner here.... wow just seen the score.

****ing incredible. Might sneak through the cup now where I was 35+ points behind. Thought I was gone

KevIRL · 23-12-2018 06:12PM

LiveFPL giving an OR of 4974. Gonna be close but might get inside the top 5K for Christmas

sicknotexi · 23-12-2018 06:25PM

Doubled my points from 40 to 80 in that game, 3 assists and 4 goals. Son is becoming a bit of an fpl hero for me.

Up to just outside 5k, delighted with that, nosebleed territory for me.

thunderdog · 23-12-2018 06:27PM

54 and a small drop of a few K. Moving Brooks out for Snodgrass and taking the captaincy off Kane was costly

Iused2likebusts · 23-12-2018 06:31PM

48. I sold kane to get funds to get in sterling as I wanted to captain him as he was the best capt choice this week. I really hate the captaincy it impacts big time on decisions and I have a horrible habit that when I risk going without the obvious captain they haul.

SlickRic · 23-12-2018 06:40PM

Will end on 52.

That is some result after being on 26 after 8 players.

I'll take the slight hit to OR.

Shanotheslayer · 23-12-2018 06:50PM

70(-4)

Was going to do Mahrez to Son this week said I was big silly Son won't cover a -4 Mahrez probably come off the bench and score.

Oh boy

Tipsy McSwagger · 23-12-2018 07:04PM

73, I badly needed that after a really bad run of terrible points.

machiavellianme · 23-12-2018 07:05PM

Guess who sold Son for Torreira this week? Lost it with him after last weeks 15 minute 1-pointer cameo and his imminent departure to the Asian cup. He outscored everyone on my team put together (except for captain Auba). Scraped 40 but most of that was PEA.

McGrath5 · 23-12-2018 07:19PM

finished on 79, captain Kane doing the business at long last.

Brought in Lingard which turned out to be an inspired choice.

Father Hernandez · 23-12-2018 07:33PM

Ricky, Kane & Eriksen fairly saved me today.

46 all out.

77k OR. Strange season for me (hit the 100 3 times, been up to dizzy heights of 2k OR and not sure where to go next)

Merry Christmas all

KevIRL · 23-12-2018 07:33PM

The classic two point yellow card for eriksen today as he misses out on a bp by one BPS

Pete_Cavan · 23-12-2018 07:36PM

My FH team scored 30 points less than had I just stuck with my team as was! Think I've lost my nerve lads, not sure I can do this anymore, go on without me!

sheroman01 · 23-12-2018 07:43PM

Well...Salah and VVD fcuked me over on Friday night with their hauls. Nice to see my two guys, Son and Kane respond to that!

With the form Son is in and given their going for the title, is it worth keeping him until he's off for the Asian games?

Its a cruel game. That spurs game has ruined my evening.

All out on 92 after. Doubt I'll top that this season.

IvySlayer · 23-12-2018 07:51PM

68 points, captain Aguero and Chelsea defenders let me down big time

Taxuser1 · 23-12-2018 07:55PM

First disaster week in 8. 32. The midfield strategy got a beating by the expected goals which finally arrived for Kane Son and Aubemeyang.

dr.kenneth noisewater · 23-12-2018 08:05PM

Busy wkd so only really catching up now, 51 all out but raging i changed Capt from Auba to Sane at the last min mainly. Most others around me had him or Salah as Capt. Need to decide which of Auba or Kane to get rid of to fund Salah now

Cartman78 · 23-12-2018 08:34PM

62 and should be green arrows all around and a rise in OR to ~57K.

Foster the hero it has to be said....21 points in the last 3 weeks for the man all us owners love to hate.

KevIRL · 23-12-2018 08:58PM

4974 OR. Hello top 5K. It's been a while.

macraignil · 23-12-2018 09:13PM

Taking -4 to bring in Kane for Aguero the week before last now looks to have paid off. Would have been above average and with a green arrow if I stuck with captaining him as I intended. Captain Hazard did hit the cross bar yesterday so it is definitely a game of fine margins. Finishing on 50 and a drop to 112,000 overall rank. Got in Salah now for next week so hoping I can get the captain choice right for the next few weeks.

Scorpion Sting · 23-12-2018 10:57PM

47 and a fall of 2k to 4.7k, my 8th red arrow in 9 gameweeks.

I was actually very tempted to captain Kane but stuck with Sterling in the end. If Kane was at home I probably would've captained him but strangely enough he seems to do better away.

Done the same move last minute... Kane always does better away & I really wanted to but everyone else was so was a bit of fear there

JayJoe1990 · 23-12-2018 11:29PM

anyone know if TAA is back for next game? if so i will do alonso > TAA and ricky > matrial

He will POSSIBLY be back
No definite news
He was in the away end with the fans Friday night ........

JayJoe1990 · 23-12-2018 11:34PM

cheers bud. i would prefer to do just ricky to martial but i am short .1 which is annoying so need to make the 2nd transfer

jamesbondings · 24-12-2018 12:28AM

83 brings me to 36155 overall

Mike Ehrmantraut · 24-12-2018 12:37AM

60 for the week has me just inside the top 4K, it’s been a great season so far.

With possibly rotations, players being rested, etc, the next 2 or 3 GW’s could be a huge make or break in people’s seasons, hopefully I won’t make a similar mistake to this time last year when I sold Kane just before his back to back hat tricks

mugsymugsy · 24-12-2018 12:41AM

69 with Brooks and Ricki on the bench. Would have been 80+ but HEWT after recent weeks.

dsmythy · 24-12-2018 12:51AM

49 drops me from 35k to 45k

gammygils · 24-12-2018 01:43AM

39 (no hits) :mad: OR drop to 1.48m. Captain Fail Number 2many

And out of The Cup. Defeated by an unmanaged team that captained Auba
Disastrous GW.

The real mccoy 91 · 24-12-2018 09:36AM

36(-4) sees me freefall from 49k to 120k. Trying not to panic and tear my team apart just put it down to one of those weeks

Mint Sauce · 24-12-2018 09:42AM

54 pts sees a fall of about 50k places to around 830k, falls in all the global leagues, but a slight rise and none movers in private leagues. Finally scrapped through in the cup, to a ghost team who had captained VVD.

Iused2likebusts · 24-12-2018 10:12AM

I dropped to 185k from 140k with 47. The game yesterday killed my ranking. Hard to believe that transferring in sterling to captain him could do so much damage .

I survived taking in a captaining Sterling and taking a -4 hit

68 points so HEWT

But if I'd done nothing, Salah would have been my captain and Pereyra wouldn't have been shipped to make way along with Laca who picked up an assist. So could have had 90 plus points. Still, I have Sterling now I suppose for the first time this season.

Apologies to all those owners if it turns out it was me who finally broke him

tailgunner · 24-12-2018 10:37AM

Finished on 53. No major damage done, but there have been a few too many red arrows recently. I've basically doubled my rank to 118k since GW12.

Captained Sterling over Kane or Auba. Still think it was the right decision, but it's calls like that that are doing the damage lately.

carnie · 24-12-2018 10:57AM

Possibly my worst week ever. I only managed 34 points.

SlickRic · 24-12-2018 11:11AM

Spurs got me out of a giant hole.

only dropped from 1.1k to 1.5k, despite an utterly miserable Saturday.

patmac · 24-12-2018 11:57AM

32 here, my much vaunted midfield of Sane(c), Sterling, Snodgrass and Hazard netted 10 points all playing at home to mid table teams, can’t get anything right, was happy with my team, now it looks a mess.
