fcking hell you Pep Guardiola is my idol.
Fantasy Premier League 19/20
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
didn't expect him to start both games either honestly.
Mahrez saves the day after a terrible second game for almost everyone.
I am going to free hit this week in the hopes that I can pull back another 20 points and make things interesting.
Any ideas for must starts?
So far have this...
Martinez
TAA - Van Dijk - Doherty
Traore - Son - Mane - Bruno
Rashford - Jimenez - Vardy
Thats with another 0.1 and cheapest options possible on the bench.
Any advice?

So annoying that Sterling is not involved in this, waste of triple captain usage.... Thanks Pep you twat.
Nope you never do with City attackers.
Shambolic week, had Leno, Egan and Aguero. Will need a big reshuffle now.
Hugged and puffed my way to 103 despite Aguero(c), Leno and Egan.
Salah instead of Mane maybe. Salah didn’t play yesterday so good chance he starts on Wednesday.
103 for the gw. Could’ve been better if Aguero had played more as my captain. Thankfully had Mahrez.
94 on the free hit... Stupid game. Shouldn't have given unlimited transfers
I would have to make another change though, as I only have 0,1 and subs as cheap as possible, plus there is always a chance that salah is properly injured, as he didn’t come on at all?
Should I bring Foden in?
Im looking at him... City will have europe to juggle so think he'll see minutes in the league.
107 points. Happy I made the 100+ as it was looking really shaky but I should have really hit 120 plus.
63 points after 2 games, 86 points overall.
feck you Pep and all that support you.
5-0 and no goal for Kunt?

119 ponts. Meh. Quite the anticlimax, was on 100 after Saturday with 10 players remaining. Only TAA and Ederson getting points from those ffs.
111. Chuffed with that. But my team is a mess going into the next few weeks, especially if Aguero is injured.
137 points. Great bench boost. Tripple City worked very well. Then I got nice points from my single gameweek players. All 4 of them got me good points.
Is there no concrete news about Salah?
That must be pretty close to the highest GW score ?
Annoyed by a couple of my decisions (Mustafi in particular) but ultimately I have to be happy with 122
Yeah I am not sure what is the highest. It was 141 before today. Mahrez owner should get a boost like I got.
Aguero owners 4 points too and some 8 as captain.
I had pure Pep luck this time around. I did consider Sane and Aguero. Sane barely played at all and Aguero didn't end with many minutes either.
Thought Mahrez would deliver enough to be worthy of a spot. It’s gone a bit under the radar how he’s essentially as consistent and relied upon as anyone at City under Pep, bar De Bruyne of course. I’m not sure I want anyone City bar KDB on the wildcard though with Chelsea away and Liverpool at home next. Surely Mahrez will take his turn on the bench too. I’ll likely take him in GW33+ though.
With Mahrez’s bonus, it looks like I will finish on 115. A good score, but with unlimited transfers, a bench boost and a wildcard out, it’s not the mammoth one I was hoping for with two non-players, a red card and a first half injury. A bit disappointed I didn’t go for Robinson over Stephens, which would have allowed me to keep Boly for another several points too. It should still be one of my top 5 weeks this season in terms of GW rank though.

Klopp said Salah and Robertson are fit enough now and are in contention to start the next game.
I think De Bruyne is a big game player though. I struggle to sell him. Although the rotation have me worried.
Same with Pool players. If Salah had an injury then they might not risk him much.
Leicester got some tasty fixtures so want Vardy, but his form is a big worry.
Rashfords form too.
Pep 
what a twat.
what a twat.How bad was the Aguero injury?
Think I'm gonna captain Salah/ He's probably the big name player that has the highest chance of playing next.
KDB - who the feck knows what Pep will do? plus they're playing Chelsea away, who are desperate for that 4th spot.
Jiminez - Played 90 minutes.
Bruno - Played 90 minutes
Aubamayang - Played two games and is a useless cnut.

My mate is in a paid league and lost out on £350 by 1 point - because it's counted Mahrez at going off after 60 mins. It must've been by about 10 seconds
I'm starting to consider Foden but is Pep just going to laugh as he drops him completely? He also isnt a pathetic price considering he isnt used consistently so I'm not sure who I'd sacrifice for him
Also captain tonight I'm torn between Jiminez and Aubameyang. I've got it on Auba atm but is he actually going to pull his finger out or just turn up and do nothing again?

Magnus Carlsen is currently 4th overall, again.
Ok 1 transfer available. Leno out Pope in. My rank has gone from 20k to 14k which is nice, I'm aiming for a top 10k finish.
Not going to use my FH I have a decent team available. Aguero will have to come out once the GW starts. Probably bring in Rashford or Ings depending how this week goes.
I could have taken a -4 but Saka playing could get some nice points.

He picked Pepe and Son with no Aubameyang. Could have backfired.
I am bloody sure he predicted Pepe to only start the second game and be fresh.
Not good enough to predict Pep starting with Mahrez twice though.
Don't. Just don't.
oh feck, didn't realise the next week starts so soon!
Tempted to take a -4 hit to get Aguero and Lundstrum out for Rashford and Maguire. I'd be tripling up on United, but looking at the fixtures, I think they'll be good value.
Team for this gameweek would then be:
Ederson
Doherty / Maguire / Lascelles
KDB / Fernandes / Traore / Grealish
Rashford / Auba / Jota

My team for this GW:
Dubravka
Laporte, Trent, Doherty
Martial, Bruno, KDB, Grealish
Jota, Auba, Rashford
Subs: Henderson, Saka, Lundstram and Robinson.
I don't think I'll make any transfers but considering moving out 2 of the players in bold for the following GW. My thinking is Auba and Grealish out for Son and Jimenez.
Or transfer Jota and Laporte for Saiss and Jimenez to have guaranteed starters in there.

Wow! What was the prize? Top score of the season or something?My mate is in a paid league and lost out on £350 by 1 point - because it's counted Mahrez at going off after 60 mins. It must've been by about 10 seconds
My league has a tenner for that and i was gutted enough to miss out on that!
My 122 should hopefully get me top week of the season in our minileague - was close though as another lad got 120 and he had Salah and one other delivering zero (all my players played) so he's gutted, which is nice

Christ that team looks so strong. I've taken a massive risk in dumping Liverpool assets...
