In my opinion the boost cards require a lot of luck. this guy played bench boost with two wham defenders whou would have thought of that.. not to mention you could use triple captain on hazard and he could have 2 points like this gw

Or they just want the highest score in a week.

Pure stupidity.

GW1 ranks arent too big a deal. This is as bad a week as I've ever seen

plus DDG didn't play so Adrian would have come in anyway

But wouldn't it be great to be #1 in the whole league just once? We'll all end up in a higher position than this guy but have to say I envy him (or her) tonight.

🙂

Andy of the scout team (not Andy85wsm)

He captained Mahrez

Out of all the obvious choices Rooney was the most successful captan. But you're right he was not a successful captain. What a shocking week.

36 + Kun should keep me safe...

1 week down, 37 to go 😀

How can you have a safety score with Man City still to play?

Do you see the safety score rising much after tomorrow ?

2.4m 😛

No of course not . There are no bad picks there and everyone had a bad week

Keep calm and carry on Nuttman!

Never really liked him as an option but I wouldn't count him out just yet

He's gonna be out of my team soon enough.

Don't really understand why he lost set pieces though.

Dont think we can judge by the swansea game since chelsea played the 2nd half with 10 men

It's a long old season. People were saying Terry was dead as an option at the start of last year, as he didn't go up for any corners in the first couple of games. Quality will always come through, though.

Im doing fab to payet and i have walcott

I think he will stil get a fair share of assists from open play but not as much as last year because Chelsea aren't as fluid going forward yet. Reckon they are players like Payet and probably an Arsenal midfielder will get similar amount of assist for less.

This is for Walcott btw. Before he falls on Mon/Tues

Unless he looks like dropping I'm holding this week but Ritchie and Lens are the ones I have my eye on

Shelvey

He's playing a long term game... strategic.

do you think Simon March swayed him with talk of Silva? 🙂

There have been worse!

defo the lowest GW1 in a long time, last year we were ripping it up with Siggy

double yellow risk

yellow card. plus he sucked all game apart from the assist. defensively wasn;t sharp

To save him from the red card he should of had before his assist

cedric was destroyed defensively all game from my opinion, plus had yellow card and two fouls after that so he was subbed. Mane missed two HUGE chances at the end, I mean HUGE. Pelle same as always, give him good service, he will score. Tadic was decent. Will score over the likes of Eriksen through the season

... Lukaku is your highest scorer by a considerable margin

People are constantly reminding you they got 35+

I'm not ranked number 1

You're happy to get Sakho's 2 points from the bench.

When you fail miserably if you dont have Riyad Mahrez

... you find a sausage under your pillow 🙁

You don't score many points.

you celebrated Henderson getting 3 points

Your team is seems like a mirciphone testing
Test 1-2-1-2-1-2-2-2

Gomez accounts for 1/3 of total points

Still though. Bad week to bench boost.
Hardly the highest scoring gameweek.

Well done, but I'd have kept that chip back personally.

nice , well done

All the best options will change next week, and the week after.

Of course

Most people who are on wc now have had poor weeks and are basically putting in this week's points scorers

IMO this WC should be used either

a) when you have a raft on injuries
b) if the price rises look better
c) to take advantage of a fixture swing

For me atm I'm leaning towards C, in GW11 or 12 (which I think is around 3rd International Break) we should have a much better idea of the cheaper options then and we get a great run for Chelsea so I'm likely to want to get from just Hazard to Hazard, a defender and one of Costa/Cesc/Oscar

Agreed 100%. If you use your wildcard sensibly I don't see it as kneejerk, although I am mid wildcard right now 😉

As long as you're giving yourself some flexibility, adding some value to your team isn't a bad thing. I usually wildcard early and hoover up all the form players. And am usually good at selling when the time is right.

Of course last gw1 Austin missed a pen but went onto score 18 goals, so I'd say 1 gw isn't a good reflection of a whole season, but it could be a good indicator of the first few games.

amen

Aye, David Silva has been improving.

yeah I'm quite happy with my team for next week bar the lack of a Swansea attacker

Or ANOther Arsenal midfield

Or the ox

Dropped? Can't see it. Injury only.

Correct.

Just get Alexis

Or Ramsey.

I thought he was pretty poor.

They'll drop Chamberlain no?

fpl statistics

Think I'm probably going to do same, like those mini wildcards.

Walcott to Payet is tempting this week but think I need more time to assess.

Good shout, Demi. Was thinking the same myself or just taking out Angela from Watford as he I thought he was a starter but didn't...

Sensible demi, I think the early WCs will really regret it

sounds like a plan

2 FTs for GW3 is what I might do Theo out and possibly Kun in if Rooney blanks v Villa

Yeah, worry away.

25 points with Aguero left. Not even that upset. Won't make any transfers this week either.

Joe Cole.

Wally and perhaps Milner(Could be better options)

But that's about it.

Too early to say for me. Most of my players had very average games so I'm happy to wait until they are bad when they have good fixtures to ship them out

Olsson, if he doesn't start.

Walcott and Fabregas

Arsenal could have done with more players shouting and screaming, need some leaders in there.

Lets see if he features tomorrow.

Maybe tomorrow if he scores double figures.
