Thought I'd be clever and build a team over the past few weeks specifically for Gameweeks 36 & 37.

I made enough changes to field a complete squad of 15 players that will play twice this week AND I played my Bench Boost too. That's the equivalent of having 30 players playing this week AND in addition, nine of my squad will play twice next week too.

What could go wrong? hehe

So I have 58 points after the first round of matches. That's about 600k overall for this gameweek with all of them having another game left yet; Son, Richarlison, Holgate, Pickford, Chambers & Coady all contributed well but Maddison, Soyuncu and Ramsey didn't play.

Hopeful to get up to about 140 points by the end of the week!!

I've been too hungry to use transfers this season(I've made 92 transfers) and I'm currently sat at just under the 1 million mark. I've still enjoyed it, but I need to learn to stop using loads of transfers though!

Same. Had Christensen and Mount thinking a nice clean sheet and maybe a goal or assist. Both didn’t play!

I’m sitting 20th in the PH league but leading my other mini leagues - the standard is high in the PH one!

A couple of weeks ago my target was top 200k overall but sitting 30pts off at the moment and most teams inside the top 200k will be actively managed and by experienced players so it’ll be difficult.

Fun season!

Gonna be some major rank swings this week, mainly between people who captained Salah (me frown) and those who captained De Bruyne (bds!)

Until he TC'd KDB last night.

I managed 126 points thanks to a decent Bench Boost, despite not having KdB. I need Son to have a quiet night tonight to hold my rank.

Disastrous gameweek for me, triple captained Salah and no KDB frown

A haul for Son tonight would help, but it looks like both my arsenal players are out (White and Saka)

Might go for a team of random differentials on my free hit next week biggrin

113 so far for me with Son, Kulusevski, Martinelli and Nketiah still to play. No Bench Boost and I captained Salah not KdB. My captain picks have been terrible for 4 weeks in a row - Salah when he’s blanked and someone else when he’s scored.

I finished on 132 points in the end. Son & Kane bumped me up big time tonight but still feel a little disappointed having had 15 players due to play twice AND playing Bench Boost. Soyuncu and Ramsey didn't play at all & Salah bombed with 3 points but everyone else did well enough.

Finished on 119 which, would you believe, I'm actually not that impressed by. Rubbish captain choice netted 6 points but I did have Son, Kane, Mount, Kulusevski, Cancelo and Nketiah.

Similarly, I got 133 and breathed a sigh of relief that I didn't actually drop rank! I didn't have KdB, Son or Kane. Thankfully my bench boost was a success with Foster, Nketiah, Guehi and Richarlison scoring 42 points combined!

Ended on 133 without Bench Boost or Freehit. KdB was my VC - had I picked him as Captain, I’d have scored 160. And my sub keeper scored 14. This game!

Massive fail for me. I ended on 72 (below the average.) Son and Mount saved me but after that, my larges contributors were van Dijk and Schmeichel on 8 each. A lot of 1's and 2's from form players.

Got lucky today with a score of 115, which ranked me 341st in the GW, highest I’ve ever been!



Sadly didn’t help me to win any of my leagues though…

Who won the PH title?!

Winner of the Pistonheads League title was Xisco Disco, managed by Scott Bishop: https://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/8841/event... with 2,633 points and an OR of 8,304. Well Played that man!

Personally while I scored the most points I ever have in FPL, 2,250 (previous best being 2,203 in 19/20 which gave me an OR of 282,468) this season my OR was a pitiful 905,611.

Thanks for running the thread and the league again this year, Miss, really enjoyable as always! clap

Similar to you really. Last year's OR finish of 18,578 with 2,470 points was a fluke, it seems, but this year I ended with 2,218 points (my second highest ever!) and finished 1,088,351 which is my second lowest finishing position ever!
