WHU606 Premier League Fantasy Football for 2018-19

Bazshuayi

Im getting wound up by a friend after my slip from the summits this season. To make matters worse she knows everything about ice hockey and next to nothing about 'soccer'!

She asked for the code to join our league. I said I couldnt divulge as it wouldnt be fair on the top ranked people (I know she just wanted to be above me!). Maybe I'm missing something in terms of knowledge, skill, judgement etc but she finds herself on 2159 points (after triple captaining Salah and having Trent and Mane as her other Liverpool players to score 80points for her three players!).

I dont know whether to just :bowdown: or :weep: or both

MrsGrey

Beginners luck.

Deanscaleshammer

What are the chances of drawing 82 all with your opponent in fantasy football, would you say, Mrs Grey? :hmm:

MrsGrey

:weep:

Bazshuayi

Did my TFs early. Brought in Lu ka ka ka ka u and made him captain. Just sorting out my draft team (which is the only one now doing well/have won it already) and noticed hes got a hamstring. Well I know everyone seems to have them but his isnt working :weep:

#just wants season to end and lick wounds :puzzled:

MrsGrey

My cheap team has done loads better than my main team. Obviously I'm not to be trusted with a big budget - I'm more a Rafa than a Pep :biggrin:

Bazshuayi

Yes, there's been a few big value players that have taken the budget up and not turned up on a Saturday afternoon (especially when the games been on a Sunday or Monday ). I wouldnt want to mention DeBruyne in your case as a prime example :biggrin: There have been others like Sanchez who I assume will plummet in value next season.

You've done wonders on the 7.5M cap Mrs Grey :clap:

MrsGrey

I've still got a chip left for my main team, so we'll see if I can get over 2000 points.

Last few games of the season are always unpredictable, and managers rotate a lot too, giving some players 'testimonial' type opportunities out of sentimentality, and chucking in a few kids :puzzled:

As an amusing aside, did you see the clip of Ben Foster talking about his FF team?

Bazshuayi

No, but I just did a google search on it :ok:

MrsGrey

I'm playing the armband hokey cokey at the mo :wahoo: :poormf:

MrsGrey

:doh: Straight red for Son.

#noluck

Hamstew

My fault. I put him in my team this week

MrsGrey

:fishslap:

Expat_Hammer

Wasn't your captain was he Mrs G

MrsGrey

No. That's my quota of good luck for this week :biggrin:

Expat_Hammer

Mine too, I was thinking yesterday shall I keep Rashford up top or take a punt on Digne, so of course I left Rashford in situ

:weep:

MrsGrey

:doh:

We're a bit rubbish, aren't we.

That's on a good day :doh:

MrsGrey

:weep:

MrsGrey

I've got Fraser on the bench....

Bazshuayi

I'll see your Fraser on the bench and raise you a 12 point Ake on t'bench too!

MrsGrey

:nonono:

McHammer

How did Arnie not get the assist for his second goal?

Expat_Hammer

My benched Digne was also a 12 pointer :weep:

Expat_Hammer

However my benched Digne is a most spiffingly wonderful replacement for Martial

:biggrin:

MrsGrey

I'm hoping Kolasinac doesn't make it on 😆

MrsGrey

It really has been a poor season for my main team but I'm still hoping to get up to the magic 2000 mark.

Oh, but I do.....

MrsGrey

The way my luck has gone, you won't have to hope too hard.

IronHerb

Oh dear.
