Andy135 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 @mike farrants, you had a good weekend on the pitch. Seems many teams struggled for points this week judging by the average points score but yours was comfortably above average. Who brought home the bacon for you then?

mike farrants Posted October 4, 2021 Author Share Posted October 4, 2021 i was a bit disappointed with my week - but only as i made the wrong captain choice - i captained Antonio and he should have had a good week against Brentford - but they are on a roll. Salah got me some good points, and I should have left him as captain - but my stand out was Tim Krul in goal I've always rated him as a good keeper, and being in newly promoted Norwich - i thought he was a good bet as a) hes cheap, and b) will be very busy in goal - keepers lose points for letting in goals, but gain points for saves - so an average keeper will earn average points, a busy keeper will repay the goals he lets in with points for saves. However - he's been letting in too many goals so far this season - its a fine line to get right and i was waiting for him to come good BUT - this weekend he got a clean sheet against burnley and did 5 saves, and earned bonus - 9 points for him! Ronaldo only played half an hour (likely rested because he had a Champions league game in the week) - one thing to look out for is rotation - during busy weeks the big teams that compete in other comps mid week have enough players to rotate and rest their key players in games deemed less important. this sometimes influences my captain choice.

Andy135 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Antonio was my captain last week too. Underwhelming performance. Two of my defenders also underwhelmed. Dios and Cancelo with yellows which wiped out their 60min points, but Azpilicueta was my biggest point scorer with two assists (as a defender!) and two bonus points. Werner was a surprise bonus for me as I'd benched him but one of my other defenders wasn't played so his points came in on an automatic substitution. Speaking of good bets, anyone else using Hwang? Three goals and 24 points from only four games. Either he'll have a brilliant season or he'll burn out after a few more games, but for the price he's worth rolling the dice on I reckon.

I've got rid of Martial now - felt he was underperforming compared with his cost and his injury risk was the icing on the cake for me. However, based on the upcoming fixtures and their previous form/results I have high hopes for GW8. #famouslastwords mike farrants 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy135 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Never thought I'd hear myself say this, but anyone else miss the Premier League this weekend? No fixtures, no casually checking your phone for match progress every 30 seconds, no FPL points to score... I suppose the only saving grace is that Fishy FC can't sink any lower this week. suzook12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
