Fecking hell. Just seconds after Cash grabbed a goal to get his total points to 26 for the most unlikely haul ever. I guess I can't have all the luck. That hurts like hell though, I captained a guy who will have played 6 minutes over two games.
I can't believe you jinxed it by writing that!

It's up there with checking how many bonus points your defender is on when keeping a cleany late on :lol:

I can’t get over that Lukaku thing. Among my worst FPL moments ever.

Serves your right for putting TAA on the bench mate. Don't bench TAA. Ever. End of. (I nearly benched him myself :nervous: )
Well not just about that. Mount my VC had 16 points too. TAA was a victim of my double trap where Kilman got me 1 point despite having two games. Can’t complain about defense when Cash is close to getting me 29 though and I nearly took him out for Schar.

Think it’s nearly time to ditch Raphinha, if not for Norwich at the weekend..

Raphinha and T.Silva out. Countinho and Cash in. -4.

Or is that too focused on chasing old points?

Problem is, I can only afford to do it tonight before any price changes. Villa’s fixtures aren’t easy either. Bah.

Tonight was a let down and the Bench boost really did nothing much for me, but I’m glad it’s out of the way before my final wildcard and 108 is a decent enough score.

Team looks strong for next week and no FH needed for 30. I doubted my strategy when people were wildcarding last week, but I think it’s paying off (baring injuries and suspensions for 30).

Might do Raphinha to Kulusevski, have very little in the way of doubles next week and Spurs play the following week too.

Why Thiago Silva out btw?

That last minute captaincy change from Coutinho to Raphinha worked out great.

Not a move I'd make. It would be West Ham, Arsenal, Wolves, Spurs, Liverpool and Leicester next for your Villa double up. Meanwhile Raph's next four are Norwich, Wolves, Southampton and Watford. And Silva has great fixtures for the rest of the season excluding the blank in 30.

I think there are probably better teams to target with your transfers.

Went Saka instead, would like to keep Raphinha in too but can’t afford him. He better not go and haul now..

Forgot to change my team this week. Potential disaster but still had (c) on De Bruyne so managed to finish on 80. Toney first sub hurts though

Rudiger haha. Just typical. King played and gave me a point. Can't wait to sell him.

What is strongest? Martenelli, Kane vs Wood, Son. First takes two moves, but both play in 30.

Can't afford Lacazette who I want a lot.

I have been chasing 10k all year long and would have made it to 8k this week if Lukaku hadn’t come on. Now 45k. Haven’t felt so resigned about this league ever.

I have an extremely strong team for this week but no doubt something crazy will happen.

118(-12). Players I bought yielded 72 points and the four I sold only got 6 points so hits paid off I guess.

150k to 110k in overall rank. Last minute captain change from Jimenez to Coutinho was inspired and saved my gameweek. 113 points (-4) is ok considering I went Rudiger over James. Still well behind in my mini league though and gw29 is going to be a tricky gw to navigate.

Bench boosting this week.

My concerns are:
Reece James - solution is move him to VVD or Doherty.
Mason Mount - captain finally came through for GW28, but now worried if he might be rotated for Newcastle. Think I probably hold though.
Saint Maximin - illness is worrying me. Will I hear any news before the deadline? Do I take the gamble? No good DGW players to move him to... Maupay?! Tempted to stick and cross my fingers.

VVD has the double but then blank guess it’s no different to just having 2 games like Doherty.

Mount worth holding for now.

Saint Maximin no idea to be honest I’d wait it out nearer the time.

Maupay is a 1 in 3 player so on a double isn’t the worst option.
