The Fantasy Football Scout Leagues and Cup Round-Up

The new one? Can't say I think I would like it to any real degree. Not a fan of all these rehashes, and for me, it looked pretty terrible in the previews.

I thought it was pretty good, but definitely a film made just for the big screen. Wouldn't translate as well onto TV.

I'd love a PvA type of FPL player at WBA!

Tempted by 1 Che/Ars defender, 2 x WBA, 1 x 4.5, 1 x 4.0 (if there's one)

Judging from some of Arsene's comments towards the end of the season, I think he will be looking for a more balanced, measured approach next season which could bode well for their defenders.

After comparing my stats to the winners I need to improve in this area

I may even go big and go 2 Chelsea plus 3 cheapies.

I don't really have a strategy each season. I'm just boring in that I just have tinker when it opens with no planning.

2 heavy hitter, 3 way rotation

1 chelsea, PVA, shclupp, 2 cheapies

Probably
Ivan, WBA, 4.5, 4.0,4.0

Hopefully a bit of rotation across the final 3 and as much attacking potential as possible

Hey Sarj. What price do you think Di Maria will be next season? 🙂

When Liverpool and Spurs wants the same player, how come they often end up in Tottenham?

Would love Sterling at Madrid. I think that could be the making of him, especially is Bale goes.

If he's nailed, then FPL will become a 14-player game

Him being nailed would break FPL.

You don't rate Clichy? Hmmm ... 😉

Thats not cheap. Do you believe that they will get promoted, how long are you willing to have money tied up in that club? If you think they will and a long time, then its not a bad idea. Its still stocks and shares and comes with all the risks

Haha just posted on this below.. I don't think you can make much profit out of it, but worth it just for the kicks, and owning a piece of a historic football club. I don't think the opportunity comes by very often

Can we Indians Buy theses shares?

let's be honest this isn't an investment you make in order to make money, pretty much the same as any football investment. It's about supporting a project. I wouldn't bank of getting any returns. Not saying it won't happen but don't count on anything.

The last paragraph is what you're after 🙂

I went with the flair option when I looked at it last year. Take your random sample of 15 players, then get the formula to bench the weakest three where in an acceptable formation.

So many options.

You need some way of taking the number crunching out

Actually, I suppose it's only the subs combinations that count, in which case it's 286 combos minus the ones that have 3 defs or 3 forwards...

There are over 2x10^26 possible combinations of 15 players, just from players who played at least a minute

😆 😆

There are 2,760 possible FPL team sheets every GW with a static player pool of 11 + 4 bench (incl. keeper)

Possible formations:
gk + 5, 2, 3 = 2*1*10*1 = 20
gk + 5, 3, 2 = 2*1*10*3 = 60
gk + 5, 4, 1 = 2*1*5*3 = 30
... so, given a team of 15 FPL players, there are 110 possible starting XI's in a 5-defender formation
gk + 4, 3, 3 = 2*5*10*1 = 100
gk + 4, 4, 2 = 2*5*5*3 = 60
gk + 4, 5, 1 = 2*5*1*3 = 30
... so, given the same team of 15 FPL players, there are 190 possible starting XI's in a 4-defender formation
gk + 3, 5, 2 = 2*10*1*3 = 60
gk + 3, 4, 3 = 2*10*5*1 =100
... and given the same team, again, of 15 FPL players, there are 160 possible starting XI's in a 3-defender formation
Whether you know it or not, your starting XI is actually just 1 of 460 possible teams at your disposal.
AND that doesn't account for your bench!
Since each formation leaves you 3 bench players, with 6 possible arrangements, multiply the total by 6.
There are 2,760 ways to arrange your team every GW.

!!

If you forego a 2nd keeper, it's half that number... 1,380

Would have been lovely with Pogba back in the PL

good yaya replacement

The same paper said yesterday that Pogba will only go to Spain?

think he will most likely end up at Barcelona.

He wants to go there, and they are planning to tie up a deal which sees him move to Barca in January (something to do with their transfer embargo this summer).

Graham Hunter (I think it was him) said recently on talkSPORT that Barcelona were in pole position, and the only other club he was currently considering (or is in the running) to sign him was Chelsea. But of course, things change. And with City's FFP problems solved, they could well enter the race for him.

Save it.

The same happens to me with RMT/PVA etc.

four-letter words .. BCCI & FIFA
three-letter word .. ICC

I'd venture it starts with an S; Sepp.

That's obviously tabloid nonsense.

Pogba will not come to the Premier League he's too good

so here's some other news:

Rafa Benitez will make Raheem Sterling his top target if he gets the Real Madrid job, according to the Daily Mirror.

Benitez is the favourite for the job at the Bernabeu, and the paper claims he could be set to pounce for the unsettled Liverpool man.

Morning HVT.

Brendan Rodgers - keeping his job!

Kane? Barely made the starting line up until gameweek 10. Still got nearly 200 points.

I don't think you can sample them but there is a video somewhere showing how they can be used...

It's definitely worth it! The amount of stats that are a click away is fantastic for FPL addicts like us 🙂

I doubt that's possible, but it's definitely worth it. A tenner for the season is nothing, and the stats are extremely helpful.

Here's the link to article that suggests that:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3100067/Christian-Atsu-targeted-Bournemouth-Chelsea-keen-send-winger-loan-again.html

He could not get game time with Everton who were poor especially down the flanks. Why the love?

there's a case for hoping that some of these type of players are actually slightly overpriced. Because if Ritchie for example is priced at 5.0m every man and his dog will have him, but price him at 5.5m and you might have something of a differential on your hands.

That would be tough to do. With no sponsors and finances etc. Unless UEFA helps them do that.

good job KOL. Couldn't believe some of the community teams some weeks though.

after the payment I got a receipt of the payment in my mail and in the website a pdf file showing I'm an owener

40m + 1p 🙂

That's not much for a player like Vidal. Considering we got ADM at 50 something m pounds, this is a steal.

Bidding 40m and1 Euros for Suarez was probably the worst decision Wenger has made in his managerial career. Arsenal could've won the league with him.
