I on the other hand have Anderson's, so far 15 point haul, but I really needed the keeper to get me 6 for cup reasons.
Oh well, can't knock a mid scoring 2

Well that's confirmed my worst move of the season. Martial for Anderson. Absolutely idiotic.
Not really. United got a boost, getting martial made sense. Southampton were on a good run do no one expected a brace from Anderson. Can't regret on hindsight my friend.

Got Martial in for Felipe Anderson. Of course he's not in the squad as the other guy scored twice. Feckin typical :mad:

Transferring in Martial for Felipe Anderson was a great decision...

Kill me.

lost my work cup league 69 to 71. garhhh
Both had Anderson so that didn't help tonight.

Was pleading for Fabianski to save a pen, or rack the saves/bonus up, but alas twas not to be.

Martial being out actually didn't go too bad as I got Wana Bissaka's 8 in.

Thoughts?

——————-—Fabianski
————-Digne - Luiz - Kolasanic
Martial-Hazard-Richarlison-F.Anderson-Sane
—————Kane - Aubameyang

Missing some Liverpool defensive cover, but I might get Alexander-Arnold in soon.

Yeah I guess. Wouldn't have minded as much if he actually played as fairly sure he'd have returned some points. Couldn't afford Pogba who is the only other United player that interests me.

Edit: and to add insult to injury he's only gone and knocked me out the cup by 1 point. :lol::(

I've been playing since the start and would love the code, tried to get the link from the OP but it came up as an error. Can someone please share it with me?


Unsure whether to captain Hazard or Son in their next fixtures...

I went for it. Fraser and Alonso for Pogba and Lovren.

I just feel with the run up we have the feel good factor now is a time to get on Pogba at 7.8million. I wouldn't be surprised if he reaches 8mil+ in next few weeks.
These 2 transfers got me 45 points this week (Pogba Captain). I finished on 91 which I'm really happy with.

The only concerns I have as follows.

Ederson - He hasn't been picking up clean sheets, City remind me of old school Brazil where they don't care if they concede but they will smash loads in but I feel they will start to pick up again, they're too good not to.

Defence - Lovren, Robertson & TAA. I've had the last 2 the whole season and they've been brilliant. Using all 3 could bite me in the arse but it worked out against Newcastle. Doherty AWB I'm happy with

Midfield - Pogba, Richarlison, Sane, Sterling, Martial. I've been umming and arrring about Anderson for weeks but left him out, same with Son.

Salah is consistent and Hazard looks like he's picking up. The one player who I really want is Sigurdson. The run that Everton have I can see him picking up a ton of points. I think I'll monitor Martial against Bournemouth otherwise that will be the move for me. Also why are people getting rid of Sane? Surely City will pick up and smash a team 6nil very soon... I'm reluctant to get rid of City players just for that reason alone.

Forwards- Jiminez has done me great. Chicarito is a meh signing I don't think he's going to stay much longer not sure who to get rid of though. Aubamyang I've had mixed opinions on. I'm tempted to get rid and maybe bring in Kane...but with Son going to the Asia cup that could have a knock on effect.

To sum it up I think I basically need either Kane, Salah or Hazard.

I was going to bring Son in but then I heard he’s going to the Asian cup and could miss 3-4 games in January, so would have to take him straight back out. I’ll probably bring Lucas in who will most likely take sons place

Which team out of these two should I aim for?

In two weeks my team will be this

Fabianski
Robertson TAA Digne Doherty
Hazard Salah Pogba Sane
Auba Jiminez

Hamer WanB Success Kayal

Currently have 3 up top with Rashford but expect him to start getting rotated soon so this should work out nicely.
Or do I go outside the box and have a 351 (assume that's possible)?

Fab
Robertson TAA Digne
Hazard Salah Pogba Sane Sigurdsson(or Anderson)
Auba

Hamer WanB Calvert-Lewin Simpson

Would probably go Auba to Aguero too

I transfered Martial in for Lucas Moura. Ended with 90 points, my best week since opening day, so can't complain, but would have had a year's best of 99 without the transfer.

I stopped playing because it's almost impossible to keep up with other guys without Scousers in the squad. feck that, never had 'em in my team and never will.

:lol: come on man, it's not that serious.

Also there's a guy who's flying who has the same sentiment. He's in the previous winners league.

My man. I'll keep running with the torch of hate. :lol:

Well that's why I said "almost impossible", I'm not that good. :lol:

Fantasy makes me cheer for other players/teams and rooting for Liverpool would be a travesty, so that's a no for me. :D

How the feck does everyone get 90-100 here all the time :lol:

43 this week which was awful but not that much below my average so far (which is 52).

I took Alisson for Patricio and swapped Mane for Pogba to open up funds to replace Michael Keane with someone who doesn’t play for Everton’s defence. I feel like my team is getting close to complete.

I used to have Felipe Anderson at the beginning but of course he was a weekly 3-pointer back then.

Alisson
Doherty Van Dijk Luiz Robertson
De Bruyne Richarlison Pogba Martial
Aubameyang Wilson

Bench: Mitrovic Fraser Wan-Bissaka and the legend of Speroni.

Is going to be my team to start the second half of season. Not 100% convinced whether I should be taking Van Dijk or looking for a City defender (Walker?).

Really hoping KDB can step it up in the second half of season. I am counting more on points being evenly spread across the team rather than Hazard/Salah/Kane week in week out productivity.

not sure it's a good idea to play with 1 man down. Each and every point counts. :p

I have to admit I did the martial - Anderson move too. Absolutely the right thing to do on paper and real bad luck really. Old said everyone was for and no injuries and for him to be ill was a sickner.

Still I got 86 even with this bad decision plus a decent sized green arrow. Could have had an amazing score though had I saved the transfer. Typical.

I really want to bring in a City striker for Auba this week but I know if I pick Aguero then Jesus will play and vice versa. I hate that bald idiot.

This is why I now only have Ederson.

City attackers tend to share the points, they're expensive and worst of all, they get rotated. If you have players like Aguero or Sterling, you want to be able to captain them comfortably at home against the likes of Huddersfield or Palace but you can't because you have no idea who will play and for how many minutes.

I just couldn't handle that shit. At least with Pogba, Hazard, Richarlison and Salah, I know they'll most likely play and Salah/Hazard are very safe captaincy bets alongside Kane.

Aguero is absolutely safe. Starts pretty much every game he's fit and given their recent losses, he's nailed on to start. Their mids are a different story. Only KDB not a rotation risk if fully fit.

You better be right Varun :smirk:.

And yeah @Dirty Schwein I know all too well about Peps annoying rotation but I just feel like I need a 1 week punt to keep pace here when I'm forced to play Auba & Wilson away at Pool & United. Auba comes back in for Fulham next week and likely gets the armband.

I have him and may captain him(not sure yet because I think Salah may rip Arsenal a new one too). Actions louder than words and all that.

Would probably play Wilson over Torreira personally.
