49 points so far, up to 40k overall :D, a bit lost on what to do next week though.. I have Jota and dont know if he will keep playing or if I should get rid of kane
Jota's form is such that Klopp would be mad to drop him. I facny Kane to score against Arsenal.

Another fun mock team I can afford by going to fodder bench:

McCarthy
Reguilon Castagne Chilwell Robertson
Salah Bruno Grealish Ziyech
Kane DCL

or:

McCarthy
Reguilon Cresswell Chilwell Vestergaard
Salah Bruno KDB Grealish
Kane DCL

I can keep Son too and go somewhere in between.

As said before I will have lots of time to build that team. Looking to leave 0.3m - 0.4m in the bank as that will ensure I will still be able to process that through for the next 4-5 weeks without concern.

I have Vardy Captain so would love a haul from him. With that being said, a Fulham 1-0 win would make me laugh so much. The meltdowns will be DT levels of funny on here.

So what is peoples opinions about keeping Bruno over the hard games?
I want Salah vs Fulham and Bruno is the logical guy to sell.

Problem is I might want Bruno back soon after.
At least if Bruno wins us the derby I will feel great either way.

The other way is keep Bruno and take lots of hits to build a decent side.

I could also hope that Salah gets his rest in that game. If he plays all other games it might happen, but probably rested against MidJylland.

Leicester are down 1-0 and Vardy hardly has touched the ball. It's coming true :lol:

I went for Vardy as captain over KDB and Bruno, taking a -4 to bring him in.

I also have Meslier and Ayling on the bench with 16 points combined.

I don't regret any of my choices but damn it is frustrating.

Thought this was the week everyone was pretty sure Vardy was going to collect bucketful of points. It was Fulham after all.
Still an entire 2nd half to go though

Isn’t it pretty common knowledge that Vardy does well against better teams, as he has more space to run into? He’s a bit like Son in that I don’t think it matters too much about fixtures, hauls are hard to predict.

Fulham playing well. I think my tactic going against them might be totally wrong.

KDB captain next week still.

Even yesterday, if you had offered me to bank a KdB captaincy and forget Vardy, I wouldn’t have.

I felt sure he would have got involved today, but Leicester have been woeful.

A late assist saving from disaster

Vardy feels like the most sensible way to get Salah/De Bruyne without selling Bruno.
Although feels kneejerk to sell him after one game.

Leicester looked terrible though and this was the best game.

Shame he got the assist, but I think that counts as match one faded with the Justin clean sheet destroyed too.

Now would like Villa to score, Martinez to get a clean sheet and Grealish to otherwise blank (benched him for Foden).

Really annoyed Barnes nicked a goal too.

We'd have all taken only an assist from Vardy but always annoying when they come so late.

I’m in the same boat. 43 with the 2 lads left. It could still turn into a decent week yet but I wouldn’t be putting money on Villa or anything.
The wrong claret and blue mob are bossing this one.
Starting to get a little concerned that Barkley makes a huge difference.

This gameweek is just the worst. Feels like my team is a bit crap in terms of form and momentum.
Not sure if I should stick to plan or try to change things.

Losing to Comeback Winning!
Martinez CS gone. :lol:
:D I knew it, dropped him to the bench. His "points form" is declining. Even before when Villa conceded 2+ goals, he still managed to get 3pts making many saves, so generally consistent and reliable, used to be the #1 keeper in FPL before this for good reason. Now, even against shitter teams, straight to zero or just 1.

Then again, McC didn't do too well this GW.

I have a Jiminez problem. I'd imagine he will be out for a long time, i was considering Rodriguez out for Mahrez although don't trust Pep, I had Son for KDB when he got injured but because son was doing so well never replaced him. However I have a more pressing problem with Jiminez...

Superb Grealish strike that I erm missed out of the room.

So close from Watkins too.

Need Grealish to assist Watkins. That'd be magic.

Whoever won the game
Couple tips to win at fantasy games:

- your team should not be over 120%-130% when you add up the %selected of your players by the whole community
- when you select your captain, make sure you have team mates of his in lineup
