A bit of a damp Squib tonight, very few points extra from all four games. have gone for a quite substantial overhaul at the cost of around 16 points. Needed to get some players in for GW30 and beyond.

Sitting on my team and banking my transfer, have triple captained Salah so hoping that comes off on this double game week

Or maybe not.... ended this week on 145 points which was enough for 26k overall. Probably in my best three or four gameweeks ever, still a shame I started so badly this season though.High scoring week, mind, the overall Gameweek winner had 198 points!!
Well played! smokinthumbup

I finished on 113 points, but I was disappointed that Kilman and my captain Rudiger didn't play in the second games. I had Coutinho as my vice, and I was originally going with him as my captain but I changed my mind at the last minute. A bad move!

My 3 Southampton players backfired too, and I only got 4 points each from them, so I've got rid of all of them now!

Last week didn't go bad but could have been so much better - James as captain was a good choice for week one - shame he missed the 2nd match.

Finished on 86 points.


This week i'm trying to get Kane in as i think he's flying.

But to do so i'm looking at a -8. But it does also give me 8 double GW players.... but three are Spurs.... must be mental.

I'm going heavy on Spurs players for this coming gameweek too! Time will tell, and you just never know what you are going to get with Spurs I reckon.

Playing my free hit this week and loading up on double game week players as I’m playing top of the league in the head to head.

Think he’s played his free hit so hopefully I can beat him

I'm going to wait and use the Free Hit chip during that week when there's only four fixtures, I think.

So this week, I've cost myself 16 points to bring in five players, all of who are playing doubles. Cheerio to Thomas, Bowen, Antonio, Cancelo & Bernardo - brought in Kane, Kulusevski, Coutinho, Cash and Burn. Already have Trent, Salah and Tierney playing twice so hoping for 100 points again this week.

Coutinho and Cash don't have a double this week?

You're right, not sure what I was on about when I posted that. They both did well for me last week so I just brought them in as normal.

Finished on 93 points in the end (a net 77 after my 16 points were taken off, and 1.2 million for the week) however the pessimist in me is kicking myself for leaving Jacob Ramsey on the bench otherwise it would have been a century of points. Hey ho, that's being very critical!

Only four fixtures this week so I have just eight players. Considering getting two more in (have only one free transfer though!) to at least make it ten and according to Ben Crellin on Twitter, I think he said there's going to be a big DGW soon where ten teams play twice so will try to save my final FH for that week, maybe.

I finished on 97 points but I had a -24 to take off that. The last game of the gameweek frustrated me because Allan got sent off, and Everton got a rare clean sheet...but Pickford didn't play for me! Had he have played I would've gone past the 100 point mark.

I've only got 7 players playing for the upcoming gameweek(no chips left), so I'm expecting to lose a lot of ground to those who use their free hit etc, but there isn't anything I can do about it though.

101 with a -8 so 93 overall.

Not a bad week and the -8 paid off again.

I've freehit for this week - still have my other one available for later in the season.

Still sitting just outside the top 100k overall - i'd like to finish top 100k this season so plenty to push on for.

90 for me this week, so highest score of the season so far. I triple captained Salah but because they suggested Cancelo was injured I left him on the bench so it would have been 99. furious

Anyway free hit used for this week, I have basically built my team around Kane and most of the Wolves defense!

Similar for me. Spurs attack and Wolves defence using my Free Hit. Game week 33 is the one with 15 fixtures, but since there are doubles for Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea, as well as Arsenal, Man Utd and Southampton, it shouldn’t be difficult to field a team of players from a “standard” squad without needing to Free Hit to fill it with double game players. I still have a wildcard to use which could be useful at this point too.

I ended up costing myself four points by making two changes; Coady in for Trent and Toney in for Dennis. I transferred Trent out before I heard the news he's out for a while.

I wouldn’t worry, everyone went for a Wolves back line and it’s not gone well….
