WHU606 Premier League Fantasy Football for 2018-19

Bazshuayi

And all those TFs you made should've covered that eh? ;run

Bazshuayi

Doh! Just looked and seen that I put Tosun as vice captain (Zaha was captain) in my cheap team. He never seems to score! (hoping me moaning will stir him into life!!)

#Why!

Does that normally work for you? ;hmm

Bazshuayi

I dont think he heard me ;puzzled

Bazshuayi

He's gonna be TF'd out (so expect a scoring spree from him especially as he plays us next week!)

Yeoldhammer

Is there are no injuries TFing all my West Ham players out.

;nonono I have 2 players not in the matchday squad, 2 benched and 1 suspended (main team). And my cheap team's not much better.

;doh Add to that, no Mkhitaryan

Bazshuayi

Same here. He either comes on or i'll get a nil point Wan bissaka swap in. I dont even know why I have him, I never trust him and didnt at the start of the season. It was Arsenals fix that swayed me ;doh

#chopped next GW

Bazshuayi

Or not! I was looking at Ginas team. I get Alex Arnold 2pts if he doesnt come on. I feel with Mkhitaryan that he sort of has a good game by accident. ;hmm

Yeoldhammer

Top of the league My inspired Pedro substitution ^_^

Decided to throw Pedro in the team looking at Chelsea's fixtures a chance for a few goals.

Bazshuayi

Is it folly to contemplate TFing Aguero out? I've watched Citys games (admittedly against promoted sides and formerly promoted sides) and he rarely gets a chance (stuck in the middle and periodically coming out to find the ball) surrounded by 5 defenders. I'm not knocking him as he still finds a goal or assist from the slim pickings most weeks. Ever since he got that hattrick and I brought him in, it seems like Sterling gets a bunch of chances (and others like Silva) but Aguero, as target man/poacher doesnt.

I figure, up against 4M cheaper Arnautovic for example, someone else can do about the same points for appreciably less money. Arnies lack of 100% fitness a concern though as another injury could see him ruled out for a while (which of course will happen if I swap him and Aguero. West Ham need him so I dont want to jinx him!). Is Aguero though too much of a class act to get rid of?

The fool in me wants to also buck the trend and TF Salah back in! ;hmm ;doh

Yeoldhammer

Wildcarded and made some very very bold moves. Could end up chucking my lead away.

(we do get 2 wildcards right ? another one halfway through the season if im correct)


Decided to take out Arnie I just get the feeling he is playing with an injury and he will buckle soon.

Taken a chance on De Bruyne now that he is back.

Gone all out attack with Aguero and Aubemeyang. Meaning 2 of my midfielders are now stuck with Fraser and Pereya. So going to need Mane / De Bruyne / Aguero and / Aubemeyang to carry me but have a good feeling with those 4.

Then a solid defence across the back 5 should net me a few points. Liverpool and Man City contingent (each only conceded 3 goals this season) with Alonso to boot.

Bazshuayi

"could end up chucking my lead away"

It's 5 points! ;lol You could sneeze, look away for a second and it'd be gone! Fortunately, its me and I've made 3 TFs so that'll go from 5 to 13 points without you doing a thing. ;thumbsup

P.s I too thought about bringing De Bruyne back (had him, Mane and Hazard in my original draft before season started but, because of the world cup I decided to leave the Belgians out). Decided instead to dump Mane (which was probably why he scored midweek) which I have a feeling I'll regret as he's due to score well in a league game soon ;hmm ;doh

MrsGrey

Played my wildcard a few weeks ago, and had a good scoring week.

Now, I look at my squad.. I'm like

MrsGrey

;doh

I just splurged my triple captain chip on Robertson (cheap league).

I give up.


;yercoat

MrsGrey

How is that even possible.

MrsGrey

;weep ;weep ;weep

Expat_Hammer

Quite easily it appears ;hug

;run

Slaven_Cups_His_Beard

Played my wildcard and removed both Anderson and pedro

Easy this management lark, piece of cake

;doh

MrsGrey

Top o' the league ;whistle

(Cheap league, that is. For now....)

Bazshuayi

Until Mitrovic plays tomorrow for my cheap team and my Paulihnos Pens one (unless he gets sent off hehe) ;whistle

Then hopefully the season can finish at this Gameweek as I'll be top off all three leagues ;puzzled ;poormf ;footie ;tumbleweed ;biggrin

#enjoying it for the whole week 'til it goes up in smoke

Bazshuayi

Oh and lets not forget your 'I give up' comment after triple captaining Robertson last week when he didnt play (moving it to Alonsos 11 points and catching up my 30+ point lead in one ironic twist ;doh ;weep) ;whistle ;wink

# just sayin'

SuzanneClaret

I had Marco on the bench ;doh

Expat_Hammer

I didn't ;biggrin

I know! It was a lesson to me - me, who often moans about the negative attitudes of people who give up as soon as we are 1 goal down.

I have given myself a talking to ;ok

MrsGrey

I've just double-checked and my budget team is doing better than my main team....

I'm gonna enter it in the main league.

#5000-1 ;wahoo

SuzanneClaret

Normal league: 17th with 576 points.
Cheep league: 7th with 546 points.

Pretty rubbish across both leagues
;lol

Expat_Hammer

My cheap team are higher than my overpaid prima donna team ;lol

Yeoldhammer

I gave up on my cheap team just letting it roll on.
