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.
Allow me to play devil's advocaat a bit..
If this end of season has taught us anything is that the majority of us are way off base about our predictions for matches on the basis of "teams have nothing to play for", "they will lay down", or "they just want to have fun".
Many humorously thought Arsenal would rout Sunderland when all the signs pointed to a 1-2 goal at the very most..similarly Chelsea have looked average since clinching the titles. Just because Sunderland are now safe does not mean they're going to magically lay down to a defeat. There's no point in letting the 'feel good' die just because they are safe with one match left. Chelsea has won the PL, they don't really need a romping send-off at home.
I could be wrong, but I wouldn't go back all in on Chelsea assets if you've already sold them.
And the opposite opinion can be seen here 🙂
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2015/05/20/the-dugout-discussion-arsenal-versus-sunderland/?hc_page=21#hc_comment_10340804I guess we'll see final day! I was terrified when I sold Haz given Liverpool's defense but I thought it was the right move. Then I saw him play that match and I was no longer worried for the rest of the season. He can do whatever he wants the final day because I'll be getting points elsewhere and as I've done since I sold 😉
I'm thinking of bringing him back in for a hit and captaining him lol
I'm looking at Rambo + Giroud > Mata + Lukaku for free and only keeping Terry lol
If you're right, then why will Sunderland play harder than Chelsea have?
IMO there's a difference between laying down and just going through the motions
Is Kolorov pretty nailed on?
should be
Panti/Krul
Bellerin Ivan Skrtel
Silva Sanchez Caz Hendo
Vardy Kun Kane
chasing 19 points, gotta go for punts.
Kane, Hendo -> Ulloa, Bolasie worth -4? who else should I get?
ye probaly, maybe get rid of caz for mata... or you could do caz and kane out for boliase and benteke. some reports they may rest benteke though
Bellerin!
A) Sanchez to Mata
Or
B) Sterling to Young
Cheersb
Sorry B) Ramsey to Young
Neither then
Or Bolasie/Punch
Is for a hit and nothing to win or lose. Just a punt

Anyone going to the BBC Big Weekend? Nothing better than a free festival 😉
Yeah, going on the Saturday (then on to Leicester for footy Sunday). Guy at work got me tickets as he had a priority postcode.
You should thank your friend. Tickets go for around 80 pounds each.
£160 for the pair. It's tempting...!!
What time are updates on a Monday night generally?
Overall normally between midnight and 00.30 GMT
thanks
According to the BBC Cazorla made more passes in the opposing team's half than anyone else has all season.
Why couldn't one of them been a lovely through ball for Giroud to shin in!?Score check.
76 (-4) here. Defence saved me.
Also, anyone know the top 10K average? Cheers.
60, 29 of it from PVA and Pantilimon.
59 here after a -12, top 10 k average 62
70, 62 is the average for top 10k
80 for me.
71 all out
76 here. All down to defence really..
Change my defence of Pva and Berty
Or
Giroud and Kane
2 freesi think giroud and kane are due. but then some good options in benteke and cisse/ulloa. would probably get kolarov and villa defender for those... hard choice. similar decision in post below
Thanks.tough decision
would do your defence as sun have nothing to play for and can see city beating south easily
lads got 1 ft what would you use it on. leaning towards a.
A) moreno out for kolarov
B) hendo/walters out for bolaise/sissoko
c) kane out for ulloa/gomez/murray/cisse
d) giroud out for benteke
team below:
0.5 bank 1 ft
ospina
vlaar, moreno, schlupp
Sanchez, silva, Hazard, Hendo
Kun, kane, Giroud
krul, walters, berty, PvAB i think hendo to bolasie
thanks, not start walters and swap moreno for kolarov...
I'd have got in Walcott for Sunday if it weren't for Arsenal playing a Pulis defense.
Hazard or Aguero for Captain!?
Sergio
But Chelsea Sunderland should be a 4-2 now.
Sunderland don't need to defend anymoreChelsea at Ibiza though. City firing.
They might be better at home. Sunderland at Ibiza now too
Sunderland will not randomly decide to lay down.
No, they just inadvertently did it for most of the season 😉
yeah. under a worse coach.
was on aguero, but sun have nothing to play for... so going haz
Man United have enquired about Sterling. Only explanation is LVG being drunk yesterday
he's not joining United, they have Depay and Bale is the target. Sterling is City-bound IMO
Yep. I'd take 25m + Dzeko or 40m. He's probably worth 30ish but English so can get a bit more
40M for Sterling would be a fantastic deal for Liverpool
Worrying that is that LFC can't replace players under BR
40M is enough for 2 Lallana/Balotelli/Lovren class players
Ballet class can be found for free.
Yes, I really meant to talk about Ballet class, and not Balotelli class maybe? Thank you autocorrect!
Lallana is a class above the other two
He's not worth more than 20m if he truly wants 100k+/week
double Sunderland defence FTW
been out of the loop any major injury news?1-2
A) Clyne > Kolarov
B) Ramsey > Silva
C) Kane > Ulloa/Vardy?A
Is anyone going double Chelsea defence? Is this a good shout?
I'd have to take hits to do it. I'll get one in, might play four at the back looking at the fixtures.
Wouldn't necessarilly. Sunderland will attack
I'd play them if I had them but won't be spending my last precious ft back there
Liverpool’s average weekly wage for 2015 is £67,486, amounting to £3.5 million a year.
This ranks the club as the 14th highest-paying outfit in the world, with Ligue 1’s Paris Saint-Germain (£101,898), La Liga’s Real Madrid (£96,933) and fellow Premier League side Manchester City (£96,445) making up the top three.
In terms of the Premier League, Liverpool pay the fifth-highest weekly wage.
Behind City, Manchester United (£89,988), Chelsea (£83,713) and Arsenal (£77,963) all pay more on average than Liverpool.
Going off this I'd rather have one worldclass player on 200K than three 'squad' players on 70K a week. Depth is overrated.Johnson Gerrard Skrtel eat a large proportion. 300k slashed with GJ+Gerrard going
Balo and gerrard probably the two best paid players though... Not doping what they are paid for
Fair enough but world class players don't want to go to Liverpool right now so looks like you are stuck with quantity
I hear what you're saying and don't have a firm position on it.
I think Rodgers was approaching CL for the first time, needed to build the squad and had an in form striker who had a cracking 13/14 season in Sturridge. You can't blame him for having confidence that Sturridge could lead the front without having to sign a 200,000/wk player.
However, Rodgers just wasn't factoring in that Sturridge's injuries would keep him out for most of the season.
Going off your stats our position in the league seems to be about right. As frustrating as it is.
fancy sunderland to keep a cleanie v che?
They don't even want to now
Surely even Mou will let them play for the last game of the season in front of their own fans?
Kane or Coutinho for the last one?
Or Ings?
Wow these double game weeks really have not gone as expected. 2 CS to hull followed by 2 CS to Sunderland. Making the right choices has been very difficult. What terrible lessons are we all learning that will bite us when they revert closer to the norm next year?
I learnt from hull and went triple Sun def.
paid of big time. I don't expect to be so lucky againWell done you anyway
fewer hits and the hivemind is usually wrong
god no
How did panti not get any bonus points he was man of the match by a mile?
rival of FPL admin had Pants (C)
Pass completion, it's a stupid rule.
Keepers get save points.
Ibe has agreed a 5 year contract, Flanagan a 12 month extension
Good news for Liverpool
Great news
How is Flano's injury tracking? anyone know?
I've closed the gap on top from 55 to 18.... Roll on final game week!!! 🙂
Just 18p to 1st in world? Go for it, all chances to win it on last round!
Oh no my bad, not quite that good, but it's been a good season so far.
Good luck!
Defending a 16 point lead, which move is best?
Ospina
Terry Skrtel Schlupp
Haz Silva Ozil Ramsey
Aguero Kane Vardy
Aldy PvA Gomez
A) Skrtel > Cahill
B) Gomez > Milner
C) Gomez > Young
D) Ozil > MataA (Azpi might be an alternative?)
I'm not making any moves until the Arsenal presser. So many ?s there.
Do you know whether lukaku is likely to rise between now and then?
ridiculous aint it, im looking at my team and theres like 4 or 5 that may be rested 😕 😕
Sanchez and Giroud are worrying. Might remove them both for Wally and Gomis.
Who are you thinking about ?
Yeah. Waiting for the Arse presser here too.
+1
Do you think the fact 3rd isn't totally guaranteed means he won't take any risks, besides with current form. They need a good result before the fa cup final.
It's pretty much guarranteed. No way United will make up a 6 goal difference.
Unless Wenger lines up a whole lot of garbage and watches it rot his 3rd place.
United rout Hull and an already-poor Arsenal lose to WBA coming off a 3-0 battering of Chelsea?
very unlikely, but not impossible
*any presser
Does Sergio still have a reason to score?
Golden Boot is won. Heck, they might even play Bony aaand Dzeko (but they wont).
Bony will start tho
I still don't think I have the balls to not captain him 🙁
He scores for fun
Was all set on playing Schmeichel and Morgan ( QPR) but now thinking of swapping one to Panti or PVA (che) to spread the risk and also chances of Panti save points/ PVA attacking threat.
Keep the double Leicester or swap one for a black cat ?
Need some top notch FFS advice...
My team:
Fabianski (Pants)
Kosc ivan terry (Hutton PvA)
Coutinho Ramsey Hazard Sanchez (Boyd)
Vardy Kane Aguero
His team:
Schmeichel
Schlupp Bellerin Cahill (Duff/Baird)
Sanchez Henderson Ramsey Gerrard Hazard
Kane Aguero Wickham
In terms of similar players we have 5.5 the same (Bellarin/Kosc is the half).
I need to make up a staggering 32 points... In one week...
Who shall I punt on? Currently thinking of chucking Kane and going all in on Ulloa (c) and hammering QPR in a 'friendly' end of season game?
