Fantasy Premier League 22/23

At least Hazard was a brilliant asset. James is overhyped, about as useful as Anne Frank's drum kit.

Both seem to haul in any game I don’t own them, and then do calamitously bad whenever I own them.

I’ve had James for 6 gameweeks and he’s brought me 12 points in that time…

In the same span of gameweeks…

Saliba has brought in 39 points

Conor Coady - 33 points

Trippier - 35 points

Alexander Arnold!!! - 20 points

Zouma - 23 points

fecking Castagne from Leicester - 19 points

Again, James has 12 points in the same span.

He’s also pulled an 18 point haul in the CL, and has now gotten injured.

Utter cnut of an FPL player. Can’t wait to sell the fecker.
 
James has officially joined the troll army:

James
Digne (c)
Mitrovic
Wilson
Aubamayang
Dennis
King
Bailey
Neto
Brownhill
Zaha

Absolute cnuts the lot of them :lol:

Decent list for all the wrong reasons. Like a who's who of cnuts. Forgot how much of a torture King v Dennis was last season. The ridiculous week everyone captained Dennis when he got -2 whereas I went for King and barely fared any better
I Captain King that week two. Never did a 1 pointer from your Captain feel so good :lol:
 
How do we feel about Doherty? 4.6, Royal out for a bit, likes to get in the box. Should be a definite starter for a bit, no?

Agreed. Overrated cnut. Can't wait to see the back of him.

the absurd thing is that James has been Chelsea’s best player in almost every game and yet this low output. It is what makes me hold on to him too, even though the points dont merit it for now.
 
4 injuries, 3 City, 1Arsenal,Neco, Maddison 4 yellows. Time for free hit if Maddison or someone else miss out?

I feel like future free hits are not that insane since you likely keep Haaland with single even on doubles. Future blanks I hope I have less injuries.

This week not great, but can get many decent picks like Son against us and maybe captain Anthony.

Yeah, it's starting to look rough now for 12. Probably wait and see which way the wind is blowing but I suspect that they'll be a fair few using FH and even more getting 9 or 10 players out.

I've got 3 Arsenal and 2 City plus injury flags on Bailey and James, with Maddison only a booking away from missing out as well. In the worst-case scenario there I could be looking at a team of

Raya or Ward
Trippier Webster
Zaha Andreas
Toney {Striker in for Jesus)

7 players would be smack bang in potential FH territory. Realistically though if one of Maddison, Bailey or James is ok (hopefully 2) I'll just take a -4 to get out 9/10 players. Jesus can definitely go as there's no value tied up in him and I quite fancy Saka if I want the Arsenal triple up. I've got so much spare cash I could also turn Bailey into Son. It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world as it saves the faff about getting players from City and Arsenal back in that you want. I think an immediate triple up on City is needed post GW12. Foden looks the best bet at the mo if you don't already own him. Maddison > Foden it is.

You got like.. 7 million.. in the bank? :eek:
 
Got 6 players from City & Arsenal coming up for the GW without them playing. Not sure what to do as I've already used my free hit and WC.
 
Would it be mental of me to captain Martinelli/Jesus over Haaland for the upcoming fixture?

Hope they score loads of points this week to make up for it.

Always a risk but it's a good fixture for them. Could easily haul.
 
Im not too bothered that James is out. I was going to get rid this week anyway to a cheaper defender to allow me the money to navigate GW12.

Not sure who to get in, Chelsea seem to chop and change defenders. Is there a definite starter there?
Brighton have 2 easier games coming up with Brentford then Forest but then difficult games.
Wolves have Forest, Palace, Leicester, Brentford, Brighton.
Palace have easier looking games but have 1 clean sheet all season.

Will probably just get Webster or Dunk for their next 2 games, or another Chelsea defender.
Whats everyone else doing?
 
I agree but both Robertson+Trent+Diaz are out, so it could be a siege. He just produces every time he's on.

I mean they're all attacking players tbh so I think you're right it will be a siege with a badly depleted team, but might that mean they play a lot more defensively than they usually would? I'm reminded of Leicester v Liverpool last season when Leicester could barely get a team out and everyone was expecting a Salah haul only for them to get beat 1-0.
 
Is James definitely out?

Don't mind tbh, means i can put more money into the midfield. Though Cucurella is kind of tempting.

Maddison is 100% picking up a booking next game

I think it's too early to tell. I'm waiting on news about him and Martial. Thankfully Kane seems to be fit now (unless he knacks himself tonight).

Hmm.. Personally I'm not sure they can play in a defensive way - at least they haven't practiced that for years. Not sure whether Klopp goes that way neither - he's typically an all-out man who sticks to his system.

Yeah it's one of those things that's beneficial really cos everyone has him and now i don't have to think about him.

Really want a five man midfield of Foden, Martinelli, Zaha, Maddison, Saka. That's what I'm working towards. Sadly think Arsenal are the real deal and tripling up on them after the blank is the way to go.

3-5-2

cheap defence
that midfield
Kane + Haaland up top.

no stand out keepers this year as of yet.
 
IF James, Mitro stay injured and Maddison picks up yellow, I'll definitely free hit in 12.

But we probably won't get confirmation so I'll probably just roll with it and hope for the best.
 
Thinking of dumping Patterson and Bailey for Eric Dier and Rashford for a -4. I've already swapped KdB for Foden which was a stupid decision as it's used up a FT and Foden will be out for GW12 anyway. I was worried about Foden's price rising. Dumb move. Can't tell if Rashford is a good shout or a shite one....
