Well, mixed results from the FH so far... my attempts to force Son into the squad thankfully didn't go in vain, and some surprises benchings (Mount, Matip) of players who would've been in my non FH team. Alonso's 1 pointer is a slap in the face though :( Hopefully he's able to play against Leeds.

Anyway, tomorrow's the big day in terms of fixtures / possible high scores. Expecting KDB to be benched now.

I've calculated that not set and forgetting Salah outside of the AFCON and up to this week so far .... has cost me 108pts!! Which would make good enough for circa 5,000 OR. Ridiculous, absolute mare some of the picks.

Jesus how did you get much apart from having many players playing?

Foster and Son? I have not seen you mention Watkins so I doubt you got him.

Foster yes and an accumulation of 1s and 2s. Red arrows incoming and another chip disaster :lol:

I was top 15k once... Now I'm clinging onto top 50k because of chasing doubles.

Ooh damn you must have had many players playing then.

I have 7 points from 5 haha.

I still have hope in KDB captain and Mahrez. If they start I should get returns.

7 from 4 including captain so far.
Truly magical stuff.

1 pointer as 3rd sub won't come in for some chumpy 4.5m Brentford striker...close to my top score so far.

I feel the average is bloody high. Only Son returned as a popular pick.

How is it high at 17? Son and Salah(c) are 11 points which are popular picks. Villa forwards are decently owned. Will also be quite a few dead teams with the likes of Lukaku, Coady and Sanchez. And lots of appearance points too.

Yeah but Palace are generally better at home so don't fancy them too much. I'll just get Foden or Mahrez or Jota or Diaz based on who looks better.

Zaha is looking better now considering they play us at home in 38. Christ we're pathetic.

33 for me (with a -4) mostly from Cody, Son and Foster. Bench boost going well so far.

Regret not going for Richarlison now particular with Kane being shit.

I guess I get him for next week. I like Nketiah so there is a chance he outscore Richarlison.

I am worried about Pep, but I am expecting that Mahrez benching.
Going double City attack is a huge risk.

For a green arrow I need a KDB and Mahrez goal I think minimum. Possibly more to counter Salah.

All my so called "nailed" players missed out.

My rival has a bunch of 50/50 kind of players, every single one playing so far ffs.

Haha dead certs. Or at least ones that I expected to start like Coutinho or Matip.

ooh yes Coutinho I thought was dead certain. He is the biggest shock.

Both Mount and Havertz benched was a minor shock, but we thought Chelsea could rest players.

I have Matip too, but no way was I looking at him as a nailed on, regardless of midweek, plus they lost the clean sheet, so it's only 2pts lost(I would of taken a -4 if I were to swap him out too). I'd say he's as close to VVD/Alisson as you can get for the final 2 weeks though and you have 2.0 saved over whichever of Robbo/TAA you ain't holding for a final push. Bright side!

I'm not sure with Coutinho for next week now, think I'll bring Martinez and Watkins from AV in.

I have Nketiah, but still on a fat red arrow. Although given the number of bench boosters if I can get a green it is a huge win.

feck Richarlison. I need him for next week. Should have taken the additional hit for Kane to Richarlison.

I have Holgate on my bench and swapped in Mina for Mykolenko at the last minute, so of course both Holgate and Mykolenko get goals while Mina goes off with injury after 20 minutes.

What exactly justifies an assist on FPL that doesn't elsewhere? Jarred Bowen is now on 17(!!) assists on FPL.... yet 8 on Fbref, so even before accounting for what they'll find different today, that's a 6 difference.

In fantasy, if player A shoots and the keeper saves but player B scores the rebound then that’s an assist. Also the player who wins a penalty is credited with an assist if it’s scored by another player.

Penalty for handball are given as assists on FPL and not anywhere else (unless there’s a red card), not sure is assists for OG count everywhere or just FPL..

I have thought about selling Ramsdale for so many weeks to Pickford.

Every week he scores so badly.
