Was thinking about making Kunt captain, but...nah, stuck with KDB. :cool:

Alright, half the other players also went with KDB as captain, but at least I haven't lost any ground. I'm heading for 63 points from 2 games. I don't often beat that for an entire GW. :D 7 scoring players.

35 pts from 3 players. KDB captain. Forgot to use triple captain and bench boost. Distracted by work. So missing out on Grealish's points on my bench.

@Rood I'm sorry for suggesting David Luiz. I don't deserve to play this game ever again.

Edit: 56 points from 9 which aint that bad. Dissapointed that Aguero didn't start but him nicking 4 points (4bonus) made me feel a bit better. Hope I can hit a 100+ score this GW.
Ha! I didn't go for him but I did get Mustafi over Targett that I regret but it could be turned around in the next game.

I'm on 63 so far

Phew :lol: . I literally remembered me telling you about him and I was thinking I really hope he ignored me.

Just checked Luiz stats. He made it to 25mins today before getting a red card.

He also made it to 25mins in the chelsea game too and got a red card. :lol:

I swear someone here said put in Aguero because Luiz will give away a penalty... They were right! If Aguero was on the pitch at that time, it would have been perfect prediction.

Hahaha, unlucky mate. At one stage I'd placed him in my team, but realised it'd be mad.

How can a guy not even in the initial 11 create such carnage!
I was thinking he would get through today and hopefully get a clean sheet at Brighton! What a mare:nervous:

Made a bunch of transfers then after making them played my free hit (so that it would revert back to the new players rather than what I had before). Can see it's going to revert back to the old players and has totally forgotten about the new ones... Great stuff.

Well, yes, that is how it is supposed to work.

Unless you're saying you made 1 transfer per game week in that 5-6 week period they oddly allowed transfers, then I'm not sure what you expected.

A free hit would always wipe transfers in an individual week.

Yeah I did. Forgot KDB was on them and I don't think that was just because Aguero was off the pitch. I mean it might have been but I swear he took and scored the last one before the season was suspended because they kept missing em.

47 points thanks to Henderson and De Bruyne captain. Had Otamendi but he didn't play which is annoying.

Wondering about dumping Auba and Salah for Rashford and Sterling. Auba deserves it for his shit hair alone.

Are prize rises/falls now open?

My big decision is going to be whether to WC or even FH for next GW, i got 10 players for the DGW but might stick with them for another week to get a bit more info

Cheers KDB for making my triple captain worthwhile

Now watch Pep grinning as he trolls me by not even having him on the bench against Burnley.... :mad:

Convincing myself that Aguero only getting 10 minutes against a tired , 10 man arsenal is a positive thing...

Surely 90 minutes agaisnt Burnley.

The way he came on and could easily have scored 3 in that 20mins shows what he's capable of.
I can't remember Jesus doing much.

No chance. De Bruyne is a player he very rarely rests. And he took him off on about 65, so there's no way he's not straight back in for the Burnley game.

When Liverpool's title is confirmed, and City can't drop to 3rd, it might get more awkward, but even then, the champions league won't start until after game week 38, so it's just the FA cup next round that needs to be watched.

I’m assuming prices can start rising again from now? So best to get players in now if you’re definitely wildcarding. ie bringing in Rashford for after the Spurs game, but doing it now.

Problem is knowing who you want. I might want Son or Kane or our players depending on how they look. Want to see Liverpool too before knowing if I want Mane or Salah.

But if you’ve got a wildcard you can just change if that’s the case.

Yes, but then I don't gain the value if I change. Problem for me is do I remove TAA, De Bruyne and Aubameyang who I might want to get back.
Probably wait with them I guess.

So I have wildcard and bench boost left to use. Should I leave it till the end of the season GW 37 and bench boost 38 ?

My XI for 31

McCarthy
Alonso Trent Robbo
Fernandes KDB Mane Barnes
Auba Lewin Jimenez

By GW 34 these are my FT's planned
Robbo to Doherty
Auba to Rashford
Barnes to Son

Is it wise to remove Dr Bruyne. He's guaranteed lots of points but Guardiola is likely to rotate alot
I think he is the one player who is least likely to be as rotated as the rest. Everyone will need to be at every team. I think he is the best bet for City though and he looked like he needed match fitness against Arsenal.

I think the DGW will actually be a good thing now. I messed mine up by choosing the wrong players, but still got 66 points and can imagine Leno, Baldock, KdB, Grealish, McGinn, Aguero, Auba starting the next game and Mousset, Lundy and Mahrez at least getting more minutes.

Also have a bench boost, so have Martial, TAA and Soyuncu yet to play.

Messed up badly with Luiz, Mousset and dropping Taggart but looking like loading up in the DGW players might prove like a good move.

Only a few transfers away from a perfectly acceptable team for the rest of the season too

Double Game Week, I loaded my team with 12 players from the 4 teams who are playing twice this game week. So was just saying that it looks like it might pay off, and de Bruyne could well start again against Burnley.

I think de Bruyne will play more minutes than Aguero/Sterling/Silva/Jesus/Mahrez before the end of the season, so I would definitely keep him as my City rep if I were you.

Oof I should have done the same

My XI right now is Henderson Luudstram Sonyocu Arnold Mane De Bruyne Richarlison Martial Vardy Rashford and Abraham.

Haven't checked though so I'm not sure how many of these players will play again

Only three, but you are much better set up for the rest of the season than I will be, but I had to take the gamble. Guy above me ended up with something similar anyway and ended up doing better!

Really hoping we win today and Martial and Fernandes can pick up some points. I've left these 2 in hoping they will get some nice returns :drool:

Ings with the punish for BBing him out. That will undo a lot of my gains from this week so far.

If I can maintain the rank I have today by the end of the week I will take it. I already went from 500k-something to 200k-something.

I’ve already had most of the advantage from being able to load up, BB and then wildcard out of double week players. Obviously going to have a weaker team this weekend than those who aren’t full of DGW players.

Bruno's 9 pointer keeps this haul going nicely. 85 so far!! Happy days.

Got excited when that second pen was given, only to quickly be followed by what if he missed, but VAR quickly removed that conundrum!
