The Scoreboard presents the Fantasy Premier League information you need from the day’s matches all on one screen, including the current top five BPS (Bonus Point System) standings from each match (potential Bonus Point earners are in bold). Actual Bonus Points will be shown when added – all points are provisional until then.
Rather pointless but how much do you think they will be priced at next season?
(1) Mahrez
(2) Vardy
(3) IghaloDepends on their season totals/minutes played.
and who they're playing for
If it's a BPL club then the club isn't too important.
If its United add an extra mil
Nah, less if LVG is there.
forget to mention if they keep up this performance.. let's imagine the season ended last GW.
If current form carries through to end of the season:
A) 11M
B) 9.5M
C) 9MI agree with B and C but Mahrez might be too expensive, more so than Silva, KDB, as much as Sanchez.
If anything I have under-priced Mahrez. I said 11m because he will have done it for only one season. If he keeps up this pace for two it would be 14m.
Exactly.

I'm tryna know if I could hit it from behind though
I'm sipping on you like some fine wine though

You talking bands, girl, I got it

9.5
9Sorry to repost guys (and girls if there is any)
Kane to Kun
or
Ayew to Ramsey (Sanchez is out of the question till next month hence Ramsey)
or
Both for a hit. I think both will combine to outscore by 4 pts and I will have Ramsey for their 2 home games, and a City coverage (which I have none atm) for the Sunderland game.
Thanks!
12, 10, 10
Current form:
12.5
11
10.5Mahrez would beat Suarez etc. He'd be a 14.
The FPL tends to like to see sustained performance over a couple of season before going to the 14m price tag.
Yaya scored 241 and was 10.5 or 11.5?
His history was pretty average otherwise.Exactly.
This was roughly my thinking.
How did Ramsey look last night?
Get your stats out.
Should have scored 2nd half. Defended more in the 1st half.
thanks - I saw the stats, just can't beat the human eye in my view.
Excellent, his movement was fantastic. Finishing let him down big time though.
thanks
Concensus on Ramsey today? From the highlights I saw he was unlucky to score.
*Not score
Missed a good chance. Played decent.
Wally or Ramsey?
Wally
Wally. Should be nailed for next 3 at least ... No Sanchez
This week who do you fancy more
A) Barkley
B) Ramsey
C) Yaya
D) Eriksen
E) other
have KDB, Mahrez, Ozil, CoutinhoI like Ramsey's facial hair. B
Lol thanks
any other opinions? please, any help is welcome 🙂
Barkley or Yaya
Or even Alli (kids on fire)
When in doubt, captain Ozil
Similar to Lukaku.
Mahrez is the new answer.Aguero certainly isn't.. 😛
He actually did ok with at least 3 or 4 SoT. Pity they were all at the keeper.
Could have had an assist if KDB finished it.
True. If the Leicester game wasn't close, I'd get him in.
Arsenal are on for El Neny. Nice.
Wenger finally buying a DM? They might win the title after all.
The guy is a beast, used to play against him and Salah, he is pure power also his long pass and shooting abilities improved very much.
Hopefully Wenger will know how to get the best out of him.
Just like they were in for Ahmed Fathy lol
This is very different, Fathy was old when he went for "trials" at Arsenal. He wasn't an established player in Europe and he rarely improved his skill. Unlike El Neny, he's young, much room for improvement and established in Europe. Perfect fit potentially an equal to Coquelin.
Hi, started off the season ok but have fallen recently!
Any advice what to do here would be really appreciated.
Cech
Kolorov Moreno Dier
Ozil sterling Wijnaldum Mahrez
Benteke Kane Lukaku
sterling and benteke done nothing for ages!! Thinking of giving him one more chance Sun(h)subs francis ake, westwood
Benteke has to go. Kane isn't far behind.
Wij has one more chance and Sterling is the same for me.thanks pal. Benteke > aguero?
Ighalo or Vardy or Giroud. FORM always form.
no, get one of the form guys.
Vardy is a risk so Ighalo perhaps.
El Nino, aka Torres, you need to get rid of the guy in your grav
He's been poo mate!
I'm not surprised.
Moreno is no longer a certain starter. Maybe your second move should be a defensive one
Ozil - Mahrez - KDB - Barkley - Hazard
Lukaku - Kane - Vardy
Would you choose A or B ?
A: Haz + Vardy ->> Kun + Bolasie/Alli
B: Haz + Kane ->> Kun + Eriksen/Coutinho/RamseyB, Rambo.
A for me
Alli or Bolasie please.
umm.. it's a bit difficult.
- selling Vardy is high risk
- selling Kane might backfire too
- doubling Spurs attackers is risky too
- doubling Arsenal mids, I've never doneOh.. I once had Alexis & Ozil.
Am working on an article on how to defeat the Dream Team. How would you rank the importance of the following criteria in selecting a player:
A - Fixtures
B - Underlying Stats (goal and assist threat)
C - FPL Formc
b
aI agree with this, at least this season.
generally the way to go all seasons i reckon
C A B
I think B is a bit flawed. Someone like Mane/Bolasie must top that every week but produce sporadically.Yes, but Mane might be even worse than Bolasie.
They don't top it every week though.
Stats are great, it was the reason i picked Ighalo in gw 7 when everyone bought Martial(triple rise) for example.Depends how you look at stats and value them. Sometimes FPL players hold on to players too long because they're underlying stats are good, goals imminent.
And it actually works out in their favour more often than not imo.
Which is why a Bolasie is better than a Mane as far as differentials go, IMO. He has shown at least a bit of form lately.
Cheaper, too. I guess everyone has different ways of selecting players, part of the game.
Cheers for the replies.
Kane stats still looking quite poor, looks like Lukaku will keep the armband for me.
He, Kane, disappointed me twice.
I still have a 100% record in the FIFFSA tournament.
New article
http://Www.triggerlips.com
Its all kicking offI look forrward to seeing how the robot does over six weeks. How short is the form timeframe Bonkers pulls from?
Im getting a bit sick of Bonkers 😀 Many captained Mahrez because he was number one with Bonkers, yet i missed out by going with Lukaku
Only way it will blank is if i captain its top selection, at least thats the way this season has made me feel
Yes, Mr Murphy and his law seem to be running this season.
You sure it was Bonkers, and not because they just thought Mahrez looked the better choice?
A few commented about it specifically being bonkers. I was tossing between Mahrez and Lukaku but bonkers sealed it for me.
Plenty have told me that Bonkers decided it for them, just going by what they were saying it seems to have had an influence
Feck me, I don't mean to be too harsh on them or you but I wouldn't be trusting a black-box algorithm after its spat out a set of just 5 results at all.
Cant argue with the results, smashing the polls
"smashing" by 5 points over 6 weeks. Pardon me if I'm staying skeptical.
and in fact behind the FFS top choice going into this week.
I am sceptical too, why do you think i captained Lukaku?
Opinions are meaningless, results do the talking,They do, but I think its entirely irresponsible to be pedalling voodoo you don't even believe in. I think you need to either
A) Lead from the front, show faith in your model and take its word.
or
B) open-source it and let people make informed decisions.
Otherwise its an abuse of your standing amongst FPLers.Whatever
To be fair Balders, he's clearly in a test phase. I don't have TL's standing in the FPL community but I don't think I'm misleading anyone who reads my blog with my tickers. I'm testing them too and publishing a summary of the results. I leave it up to the reader to decide if they have any value. Some weeks I draw on them heavily for my own decisions, other weeks I draw on other FPL knowledge to make my decision. I've always said anything I write is only one more view in a lot of different variables an FPL manager should be considering.
I've also told you in the past to take your own models word or go back improve it until you can Diva 🙂
I would t bother Diva, just a sad little troll, do not feed
So I should take the ticker offline, pick my own team with a model I have explicitly said is unproven and only publish it when I have won the FPL for five consecutive seasons?
No, I trust my readers to be clever enough to make their own mind up on whether it has any value or not.No I think its fine to leave it up there as this post gives a good description of what's going on in the ticker allowing readers to be informed.
https://fpldiva.wordpress.com/2015/10/13/fixture-strength/
Still there's always room for improvement if you're not following yet.There may be room for improvement, which is one reason I introduced the form ticker to run alongside it. But I need to give the season ticker a season-long test run to know what problems there might be before trying to tweak it or I will not have a base level against which to judge the effectiveness of any change.
That's fair enough, at least you have the courage to put your workings in the public domain. You get a lot of respect from me for that 🙂
I was already going to captain Mahrez and it was nice to see Bonkers back it up. However, it does help if you hit confirm on the armband decision at some point in the four or five days after you select your captain! It felt almost as bad as doing a Fenley...
Interesting. I haven't checked your blog awhile. Just know the bonkers.
Just checked your blog for the first time as your name gets banded about quite a bit on here. You're second in the Hall of Fame? That is incredible. The way you're talked about here suggests you're a bit of a joke player while Ville Ronka is almost spoken of as the Messiah. I suppose that's what you get for giving your opinion and trying to help others. Keep it up, mate. 😀
I wont be second on the hall of fame for much longer. But they can never take those 4 top 1k finishes away. There always next year...sigh
There's still time for the rankings to be shaken up, but I'm not sure where the shake-up will come from.
Bottomed on last page
Butland / Gomes
Ward / Smalling / Dawson / Moreno / Rose
Mahrez / KDB / Wij / Ramsey / Ozil
Vardy / Kane / Lukaku
Worth taking a hit to sort anything?
Maybe get rid of Wij?If you don't want him, you can bench this GW. Was having an off day vs Villa. There was a moment in the box where he scuffed his shot a few yards from goal. Usually scores.
It's not that I don't want him, but wondering if there's anyone better at this time.
How's your shoulder btw?You've got the main ones so I think you're covered.
It's fine thanks, just a minor strainOk great thanks.
Good to hear 🙂
Nothing worth a hit.
Ok cheers
A transfer will be so valuable to pocket these next two weeks.
Will hopefully be able to save one next week haha
Hello all, Help me bench one -
Ramsey Barkley Ozil KDB Mahrez
Lukaku Kane Vardy
Will face this problem almost every week it seems. What can I do about it? (No AOA)Barkley
Very tough one! Newcastle have been good when underdogs lately, so maybe Barkley.
Hope this wont hurt.
Been flirting with a girl and playing Words With Friends with her. I'm up by 70 and can finish the game with a 110 point move, but it might annoy her. What should I do?
No mercy
Just like Real v Rayo.
precisely
do it!
Lose intentionally so that she gets it that you did it for her
She already knows you are a loser, the very fact you playing words with friends confirms it
But she's a loser too. We can make beautiful loser babies.
A nice romantic gesture, but I've made plenty of those already. I think I'm going with the crowd on this one.
Lol this post got 3 replies within 30 seconds.
People must have been sick of arguing whether to bring in Kun or not.
Or they're interested in your new friend.
Destroy her! Would she like being patronized more?
Good point.
In the words of the mighty Mortal Kombat. FINISH HER!!
I used to enjoy words with friends until i found out mny cheat, using some scrabble program.
Are they really friends then if they're compelled to cheat against you on a mobile game of scrabble?
They were not my actual Facebook friends just random match ups
Correct answer Balders. I only cheat against random matches.
Alright cheers everyone, Mortal Kombat finishing move it shall be
Tell us what happens - I'll laugh if she throws a 180 word move back on you! 😀 (I've never played the game so I don't know if that's possible).
Shall do. I'd love to see that actually, it'd be really impressive even if I'm on the losing end.
Also, loving the blogThanks Cap'n!
It's be so funny if she's on an internet forum somewhere going: "This boy I've been playing Words With Friends with is leading by 70 points. I can crush him with 200 points, but it might make him feel inadequate. Should I do it?" 😆I reckon it'd make me like her more!
Winner babies! 😀
Sorry to repost guys (and girls if there is any)
Kane to Kun
or
Ayew to Ramsey (Sanchez is out of the question till next month hence Ramsey)
or
Both for a hit. I think both will combine to outscore by 4 pts and I will have Ramsey for their 2 home games, and a City coverage (which I have none atm) for the Sunderland game.
Thanks!Ayew to Ramsey
I say take the hit
Anyone thinking of doing Kane to Kun this week?
Nah
Not me.
Suspect he might be in the points, but still not going to bother. Whatever do will be wrong, so may as well be wrong and have an extra transfer
did it the week just gone lol
sure
Anybody got the link to the most recent FIFFSA results?
in the FIFFSA article
I was being lazy 😉
In the community article or back a page or two. 🙂
Cheers 😀
4 wins 1 loss. Not too shabby.That's about par for the best teams. Tahiti are the Leicester of the FIFFSA World Cup. 😉
Back to 7th in the GW5 2M+ Club 🙁
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/my-leagues/718305/standings/
1st spot is 111K.do you know who that is leading the 2m club? the getting uncomfortably close
No idea
Giroud --> Aguero for a FT, yay or nay? Other fwd are Lukaku and Kane
Giroud is good enough, assuming he's healthy
Aguero is playing against SUN though...
Is he? Leicester is more important midweek.
Quick question about 5 a side WC
How many make it out of each group? Was it only 2?4
Thanks
Boxing Day stats - just a bit of fun
In the past two seasons of Boxing Day fixtures, there have been 7 home wins, 12 away wins and just 1 draw
Papiss Cisse has scored on Boxing Day for each of the past 3 seasons. Wayne Rooney has scored 3 in the last 2.
Arsenal's didn't play a Boxing Day fixture for 4 years from 2009 (two postponements and two changed for tv). The re-arranged game against West Ham in 2012 finished 5-1, Giroud (2) and Podolski (1 goal, 3 assists) took the points.
Aston Villa haven't scored on Boxing Day since 2010.
Man Utd have won their last 11 Boxing Day fixtures, scoring 33 goals in the process.
Sergio Aguero has missed the last two Boxing Day fixtures through injury. In his other two Boxing Day appearances since joining Man City, City did not score.
In last year's West Brom v Man City game, James Milner played as a lone striker.
Everton have lost 0-1 for each of the last two seasons.
Olivier Giroud was the only player sent off in last season's Boxing Day fixtures.
Chelsea have conceded just one goal in their last 6 Boxing Day fixtures. (FPL legend Clint Dempsey)
Arsenal last lost a Boxing Day fixture in 1999.
And finally...On Boxing Day last year, Leicester slumped to their 6th successive defeat. They had garnered just 2 points in 12 games, home draws to Sunderland and Burnley. That left them 5 points adrift at the bottom of the table. Jamie Vardy was on the bench, with Nugent and Ulloa preferred up front.Milner (C) 😀
Liverpool need somebody decent playing #9 😛
Cisse (C)
*9 of those 11 Man U Boxing Days were under Fergie so buyer beware with Man U assets! 😛
How did Aguero look? Was he sharp and looked to be free of any sort of injury?
Thanks! That will help me a lot.He looked rusty but had a few chances.
Thanks mate.
When do we have to use the first wildcard by?
Gameweek 19 is your last chance. Do you still have yours?
No but the robot does
My wife running it as a new team. Bloody thing scored 85 this week.
Is that straight after GW 18 games or straight after GW 19 gamesJudging by the teams TM was posting earlier, she'll be overtaking us by the end of the season!
19
Only 208 out of 2857 played Kolarov this week from top 10K
That doesn't sound very 'casual' to me
He had 5000 owners not long ago.
Then they definitely know what they're doing. That, or the ones that kept have fallen out
Your overall rank is a bit of a lie at the moment when you think of how many in front of you have already used all their chips. At least that's what helps me sleep at night
All depends on how many you get from them.
Is it worth holding VVD-> Walker till GW 22.
Spurs next fixtures are [NOR wat eve LEI],
while Saints have [ARS whm nor WAT]
Personally i think spurs will only get 1 CS againt NOR, while saints have good oppurtunities at whm, nor and potentially watford if ighalo fades off. The saints defence surely cant get any worse and im sure its worked on in the training ground. Plus VVD goal threat of course :). What do you lads think?also i dont think a walker/ other saints def price rise will hurt too mch with mahrez, vardy, ighalo, lukaku etc performing while big hitters arent
No, do it now. Spurs are sold
*solid
DDG (Hennessy)
Bellerin, Toby, Dawson (Moreno, Janmaat)
Mahrez, Ozil, KDB, Deufelou (Alli)
Lukaku, Vardy, Ighalo
1 FT 7.2 ITB.
A) Save
B) Deu-Ramsey
C) Moreno-Anyonea, although b looks enticing, as long as lukaku is scoring someone is setting them up [Deu]
Save ye think?
Butland, Schmeichel
Toby, Ward, Moreno, Francis, Kolarov
Mahrez, Ozil, KDB, Wijnaldum, Stanislas
Vardy, Lukaku, Kane.
6.1m, 1ft
Ramsey or Wally.. I'm keen on too but think KDB/Wij have decent fixtures.If i were you, ramsey, because whenever i get walcott he gets benched or injured
