FPL General’s Gameweek 18 team, transfer + captain

That’s worst I’ve seen, someone in my league getting palmer off bench for solanke caprisn and Salah vice

That should not be rewarded

Unlucky

Same except guehi instead of Mitchell

Player in my ML had Palmer coming in for Solanke. I was lucky enough to get a 3 pointer to come in so lost out there plus played BOU defender as other 2 defenders suspended so no points for that auto sub. Way behind now so may have to concentrate on next season.

I had Solanke and Senesi for a hit. And no one comes off the bench.

Brought in Solanke and Billing (big punt, I know) this week, and had Kabore coming in for Trippier. No subs, now knocked out of the cup.

Still the right decision from FPL though, since they are replaying the game.

I think it was stopped in the 62nd minute.

Not 59 but play suspended on the 65.

It's interesting how much variation there is on this.

Trippier looks awful lately would stay clear

At least I have lots of spare time on my hands now

Meanwhile I am still waiting for my solanke bonus to add..

Thanks Greg Frost, you have delivered welcome news.

Yeah to a new game

Take it up with Eugene Starlington. I hear he's the one to blame for this mess

Tough luck, yes. Ridiculous? No. Think about it

Solanke owner, same situation when a game called off due to snow etc. you never know,you might take hits to bring a player from the fixture without knowing the snow thing.

I mean.

You took a -8 to get two Bournemouth players.

So really it's on you 😉

During COVID I took a -8 to max up on an inform Spurs side who were facing Fulham.

I’d even captained Kane and (stupidly) VC’d Son.

Only for it to be called off with the teams in the dressing rooms.

It still hurts.
That’s FPL.

Unlucky people sometimes confuses unlucky with unfair.

This is the only fair way to proceed in a game called: 'Fantasy Premier League'.

Tough and harsh for Solanke owners, cappers and buyers through hits and all. We get that.

But if Liverpool - Man U were abandoned due to racist behavior on or off the pitch, lightning bolts near the pitch or a freakin tsunami same thing would have happened, and I would be the unlucky one.

It's a game and i August we have the same 1000 people on hear going on and on and on and on for ages about this game being 90% luck 10% skill. Here you have an incedent that ways heavy in 'camp luck'.

It makes sense to void the points. The game wasn’t completed, and therefore doesn’t count for anything. How should the points count if the match was never completed, but on the contrary will be replayed? It’s massively unlucky, I’ll give you that.

Agreed, many took hits o bring in Solanke, only fair to give back these.

Isn't consistent. March last season when his goal should have stood after the event.

65 minutes of the game was played you melon. Every other league in this situation has resumed the game from that point on another date

Brilliant

😆 Cry me a river

Agree! I do not own Solanke and got lucky that the game was wiped and stats not counted. That said, I firmly believe that this is the only logical course that maintains the integrity of the game. The reverse, counting fantasy points for a game that was effectively cancelled, is far less logical.

As I've said previously on here - if he was on negative points (sent off, missed a penalty etc) would you think the same?

I am one of many Solanke owners who thinks this is obviously the right call. Merry Christmas!

There might not be a double.

Just relax.

Time’s a healer

I wildcarded the week covid hit.

Jog on. This is fair.

Absolute dork suggesting otherwise

Also… minor point, but…
Lockyer went down (and gane was stopped) at 59:12

How they then jumped to 65 is a bit confusing.
He was treated on the field for longer than 5:48 and so the whole 65 mins thing is an oddity.

Not the biggest talking point though.

Since when has FPL been fair though

Lol I have solanke and it’s completely fair

Game is void and being replayed deal with it.

Perfectly said.

The dork is on you lol

Did you need Kabore points that much?

Rival has Palmer on bench. I took -8 for Solanke and Neto as I had no bench.

Ridiculously bad decision by FPL

Its not a bad decision by FPL. Its a sensible decision given the events in the game will be as if they never happened.
It is however a bad outcome for some and a good outcome for others. C'est la vie.
If Solanke had pulled up in the warm up with a hamstring injury that would be a similar piece of bad luck.

Solanke owner here, with Gordon off the bench.

Yet if they had left the points as they were no-one would have lost put, I wonder who didn't own Solanke

You joke but FPL did a lot right.

The communication was rubbish but they’ve made a decision to delay to give the chance for them to reflect the unknown PL outcome.

Solanke owner.

Things happen

What can you expect from people that Brexited lol

"their"

Is it any different to games abandoned for snow?

Oscar Slater, provocator!

So would a sunday league game...

Sorry what was the point here?

I'm willing to take one for the team. Which player and fixture would you like 'fixing'?

It doesn't work like that. Hence why games stopped due to crowd trouble ARE finished from the minute the game was stopped.

haha

Or pull their team off the pitch because they didn’t get a penalty!?!

(https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67767410)

That's not a nice way to talk about FPLVirgin

The nutters are on here

Stop spying on my WhatsApp chats! I wasn’t actually going to go through with it!

Or fans, or police, or staffing, or player preparedness.

Few other reasons.

That makes zero sense

Are you for real? A guy almost died on the pitch and you expect them to tell Luton to play the game the following day?

I doubt it very much. I could maybe understand that argument if it was Liverpool v city but even then I doubt it

Don't get Solanke his points don't count

Solanke

Seeeeeething

Simon… as in Simon Fuller’s follow up project after the Spice Girls booted him from their management setup

Why is this different to a game abandoned due to snow?

Assuming they don't autosub points

More chance of Let's Talk FPL Andy winning a modelling contest

Gordon and livramento for me
But… areola also

Haaland solanke owner -4
