Fantasy Premier league 2020/21

I am bad at this and always have been, thus little to say!  On a positive note, this is the first season in a long time I have managed to maintain 100m+ in team value.  Usually i;m close to 98m at this point!

i am over 102M now and just got martinelli in and think his price could shoot up to 6M if he gets going soon here!

never heard of him. Let me do some google research

This weekend is not going well for me....  really need kane to score big against palace now

Its been a nightmare of a start to the week.

Highest score of 5 and the nine point soucek is on my bench

It all rides on my captain kane 

and assuming saha is captained by the majority, hopefully  him blanking

Otherwise its very much a red line

Played the free hit this weekend in order to get Salah at Fulham, so hopefully he causes some damage.

Also kind of hoping Southampton get the job done at home against Sheffield United.

Reverts back to the following next weekend.

I'll have a bit of play around with the team selection during the week when I get the chance.

Been relatively lucky with injuries and suspensions so far this season, but in saying that I've probably jammed myself right up...

god, I hate this game. Nothing makes sense. 

Will take my 69 points and run.

Big ups to Southampton and Jamie Vardy too. ?

I captained Vardy and also had Justin so they turned it into a reasonable week.

how much was your score?

52. Doh, why did I change captain from Vardy to Mané??

I ended up with 57 which i was really happy after the start to my week...

Still a red arrow overall though....

55 and a red arrow as well, could have been worse however.

Was thinking preety happy with liverpool one nil down at half time with the majority having captained saha

But he came through at the end courtesy of a penalty

Thjnk if it wasnt for that it would have been green

56 but have just held position ina all my leagues.

Penalty was so close to being saved too...

Is there a YF league running? Just out of interest...

Whoops, nevermind just found it after reading back a few pages...

'running' is a bit of a stretch. most of us are crawling like a half-eaten carcass.

I looked at it earlier, and without blowing my own horn I'll be coming in from close to the top of the pack ?

Got to buy the lottery ticket to win the lottery buddy

Whats peoples plans for week 18 and 19 with the weird fixtures now?

using my first wild card round 16 to sort out my team and set up for it

Gonna slowly add players playing week 18 where I can over the next couple of weeks, but still have a bad week, as I don't want to move on players that have increased in value that I won't be able to buy back.  Then use the wild card to load up for week 19.

This is what im leaning towards too,  wish i hadn't used my free hit. Had no idea what it was either so a huge waste   

you guys knownyou get two wild cards right?

one before round 16 and one afterwards

Yep i do, but how many of the players i want in GW 19 do i want to keep after that

I still get confused between the wild card and free hit, consequently haven't used any of them!

Wildcard unlimted trades for 1 week (they are perminant)

Free hit unlimited trades for 1 week (only stay for that week before reverting to what you had before you made the trades)

nope, had no idea.  Does the early one roll over - i.e. do you get an extra one at week 17, or is the first one a 'use it or lose it' type situation.   (and yes, I guess I could go look, but hey, i'm lazy).

wow, had no idea of that either, OK, I should really read the rules! LOL!  Been 5 or so years since i've played, so things have changed!

OK, I guess the free hit for week 18 it is then.  I guess your team reverts back no matter the budget then?  

Shark, have just read the rules now, wish I had known that before I locked in my changes this week!!!  Didn't really need the extra Wolves player in the midfield there!

Damn seems i have been  help, maybe to my own detremant 

Your 60 points clear, and i'm terrible at this game, so I think you'll be OK in the end ;)

Yep, I'm under 100 points behind you now, watch out!!

now every one knows the rules this game got harder :)

Oh yes, thanks to your fabulous 'help' I traded away Firmino. Thanks a bunch!  

Wow Salah as captain was an amazing idea

As was Fernandes ?

was real gutted how last week worked with the cup qualifying draw..... with the majority of my team playing i didn't qualify which is crap

It is what it is though,  this week i have started well soucek and Grealish.  Definate time to get rid of KDB thou
