Good advice, this. clap

I'm on 36 points with just Maddison to go, so will end up on 37 points no doubt. hehe
Ha.

Transferred out Kuluveski who has scored and is on for a couple of bps frown

But it's alright because I replaced him with Cole Palmer who has scored and is on for 3 bps biggrin

Oh wait, it's not alright because I benched Palmer frown

Yup, Palmer on my bench too. Udogie was also on my bench though so small mercies.

I started the day with 29 points with 3 Spurs players to play. Ended up with 28 points.

I originally thought that I was finishing on 29 points, but Romero had another 2 points taken off him, so I ended up on 27. grumpy

I've already took a -4 for the next gameweek!(a bit risky with the midweek games though).

All of a sudden, I don't feel so bad now... hehe

That's harsh though.

Finished on 33 points. Maddison was my last hope of getting some points yesterday and he came off injured. I was tempted to play bench boost at some point but just looked and 3 of my 4 subs are injured and I've already made 2 transfers for the week.

34.

It’s just bizarre now. I forgot to swop goalies but if I’d had it would have 28.

Same here. I only have three fit defenders as it stands. Big Dan Burn is out long term now. Matty Cash has a yellow icon for his shoulder so will be interesting to see if he plays in Europe this week. Maddison went off injured but was walking around at the end of the Spurs game and did half a lap to thank the crowd so I'm hoping he will be fit by Saturday. Haaland played 61 minutes last night so should get some minutes at the weekend too but I think I'm going to move the captains armband to Salah with Son as VC just to be safe.

So my team looks bad but hopefully I just need to sort the defensive cover and the rest will be fine. I have 1.5m in the bank, which gives me 6.1 if I sell Burn so either need Schar if I want to keep some Newcastle defence, or maybe consider a second Palace defender. Fantasy Football Hub price change predictions say Burn is not likely to drop in price this week so I don't need to rush a decision.

Aren’t Bench Boost and Triple Captain best saved for Double Game weeks?

Think Saka went off injured tonight too, more than half of all FPL teams have Saka in them.....

Still, you could have had a worse week.

I saw that on twitter...and I thought that I should be grateful for my 27 points really! The last gameweek has certainly been a test for the most of us for sure. The upcoming gameweek looks a bit tricky with all the injuries as well.

Don’t think I’ve ever had 4 reds….and no wildcard.

With Maddison confirmed out long term I've bitten the bullet and take a -4 to make 2 subs. Everyone is offloading him so he's forecast to drop in price tonight.

I've done another one of my crazy hits again. I brought Akanji in for Romero and then he was yellow flagged, my bench were all flagged, and I also had Maddison and Saka flagged. So I've took a -24 now! yikes

My toys just come out of my pram a bit too easy at this game I reckon! biggrin

yikes


And yikes again.

I had three yellows, an orange and a red so had to act really with two free transfers and £1.3 million in El Banco.

So have swapped Estupinan & Maddison for Lascelles & Son.

I've gone for Lascelles and Son too. thumbup

I would've been really upset if I'd took a -24 last season, but because my season has got off to such a terrible start, and my OR is diabolical, I can at least live with my recklessness this season in fairness in comparison.

Hopefully going forward I can be less trigger happy...however I said that last time I took a -20 though this season! hehe

Hate this game.

I'm pissed now I have to take a - 4... Let alone a 24!

That's like wiping out last week's score!
