Jesus goal but another xhaka assist. What an FPL bargain he is - imagine that!

Might be worth keeping Jesus even through the tough fixtures, Arsenal always look threatening going forward. Obviously wouldn't buy their defenders though.

Behind the right goal post as "Whiteside shoots!"
So did I, had no interest in FPL for a good 15-20 years because I last time I played it was a very dull game with just goals and assists involved. From memory, last time I played I was persuaded to buy Steve Staunton because of his accurate long balls from defence. Now I'm obsessed with it, like I am with fantasy Australian Rules.

Never played fantasy in a classic league though so it's been a steep learning curve. But after 22 transfers, burning two chips including the triple captain in week 1 on a 2 point Sterling performance, I'm really getting the hang of it!

Got myself up to 6,600,000th place. Don't even @ me, cnuts.

Update: Just realised I'm to 5,556,483 now. Didn't I tell you pimpin' was easy?
Stick your team up.

Can't get him in my team as I already have Saliba (absolute bargain himself!) Jesus - a must for his value and Martinelli - great value too..

Even odegaard looks liek a good choice, being captain and assured with minutes played and injuries now.


Happy I captained Kane over Haaland, some good points gained over the ones just captaining Haaland every week. Waiting to be burnt in the future though.

To be fair, they're too busy in their mum's basement checking stats and watching tape whilst ignoring their actual lives so that's probably why they don't post here :lol:
In fairness I'm doing all that and still manage to post loads :)

Of course Jesus scores now after being sold by half the players. :lol:
Couldn't understand why the hell anyone would sell Jesus. He is a seaaon keeper, especially for the dough tied up in him.

Him and Saliba is a decent haul if they have to win.
Now it's a cruise I hope they get a 4th and 5th and Martinelli also gets involved.

Yeah but Jesus has only hauled once and they've played their best run of fixtures. His next 4 are Spurs, Pool, Leeds & a blank.

I'm happy for the parting goal today but yeah, I'd rather avoid those fixtures and have Kane.

Martinelli's points hardly make much difference though?

Sold him to upgrade to Kane.

Jesus that idiot getting a last minute yellow and also losing a bonus point.

Still 70 all out and didn't play WC so have kept pace with my rival who has played his WC.

It's not Kane or Jesus though. It's Kane minus 4m or so for what you get with Jesus. That's a big reduction elsewhere.

Are you saying because everyone has him? (Which isn't true).
Or are you saying his points don't matter as he got none? Hence me saying I wanted him to do something!

Has he lost it? It's still showing on that bonus point website. I'm not far behind you with 67 and didn't have to use any chips so happy enough.

Yeah I was saying in terms of ownership. Feels like everyone has him, but it turns out his ownership is 40 odd %.

This is true but I think you can get 6 pointers quite consistently with even the likes of Toney or Mitro over the next run of games.

He was on 2 but then lost 1 point for the yellow and one of those 2 bonuses.

There's Isak as well who got 9 points this GW and has better fixtures.
I'm not sold on him yet. The last game he barely touched the ball and only got the points thanks to a penalty and also turns into Welbeck in front of goal.

And as we have all cottoned onto Wilson's trolling, I bet that cnut will become fit to play every time you own Isak so he can carry on trolling you even when you don't own him

58 points for me and I still have 4 players yet to play.
salah, TAA, Allison & cucurella.

Havnt used any bonuses yet. Might use a wild card and shift out the majority of the Liverpool lot. They look finished.

So far ranked 363,000
