Week 10 Vardy (c) Bruno (vc)
Week 11 Bruno (c) Vardy (vc)

Modest 60 points from 8 players

Rough: My entire defense scored 4 points.
Smooth: 81(-4) green arrow to a decent 145k OR

A humble tale of joy with 94pts. Soucek contribution most welcome.

81 with 2 Villa players and only 1 point off the bench

I've had better,I've had worse i guess.

Ended up with 69 points which if you offered me at the start of the game week i would have snapped your hand off for. Considering i had 2 Villa that i had move to the bench and took a chance on banking a transfer i cant complain too much with how it turned out for me.

No flags either thanks be to God.

Smooth: Lack of Grealish/Lewis forced me to play Neco Williams (5) and Soucek (8). Also brought in James (5) for a free transfer and saved my other ft.

ROUGH: Sold Cancelo (6)

OUTCOME: Modest green arrow from 213k to 170k

Smooth: 82 points from 9 players and a welcomed Soukec surprise.

Rough: used 2FT for Robbo Son to James (K)dB. About even points return but would have C Bruno and now a want to get one of Robbo or Son back.

Rough. Furlong Rough.
Took a minus 12 to get rid of Cancello, Foden, Nyland and Mitchell who are all either dead, dying or part of a lottery every Gameweek. Team was short of players because of the Villa cancellation too.

So, I brought In
Johnstone for Nyland (scout picks - thanks) who got zero. Fail.
Foden to Jota. Jota started on bench. Fail.
Mitchell to Dallas. Positive. 1 point.

But my finest acheivement was a punt on Furlong for West Brom who incidentally has some great numbers. But this weekend he hit the bar, got an assist, but the scored an own goal and conceded 5 goals. 1 point. Fail.

And Barnes didn't play.

I fell 1 million places. 1 Million. I even checked to see if I was below Az. That is the company I keep these days.

After last weeks 44 pointer this week a mega 89! Third GW in the last four with a circa 200k GW rank at 208k moving up from 2.1m to 439k in that time still with my wildcard and not taken a (-4) yet either...

Smooth; Held on to Sterling paired up with KdB(c). Brought in Bamford having finally got rid of Mitrovic. Fernandes, Kane, Soucek, DCL, Walker-Peters all returning points.

Rough; Sterling didn’t actually do me any favours over two fixtures vs keeping Salah or Son!

Rough,
an absolute disaster FH where i somehow managed to score 20 something points less than my team from last week if i had done nothing, despite the original team having, Martinez, Grealish, Torres, Rashford, Bruno, as non starters or not playing at all, more than doubling my rank in the process, 400k out to almost 900k

Smooth
at least i get original team back this week, thank god 🙂

Smooth
Managed my 4th green arrow in a row - 3.9mil 5 gws ago, 1.1mil now.

Pretty smooth all in all. My only player to blank was my sub in for Grealish.

86 points with no keeper. Very happy.

Best GW so far this season. Took out Martinez and Manè for McCarthy and KdB (c) for a hit. Had Sterling, Son, Bruno, Bamford, DCL, Zouma and Cancelo who also delivered. 94 points and went 2.2 to 1.2 million in OR all in all.

Smooth despite 2 villa players, so 10 only playing.
82 points, 4th green arrow in a row, and 600k gain.
Still got a long way to go to clear all the dead teams ahead of me 🙂

Rough:
I had 6 no shows due to Villa lads, getting Peped (Walker & Foden), and a non-playing fodder...add to that 3 x 1 pointers giving me 9 duds for the GW.
Smooth:
My remained 6 players got 73 points between them!
Just goes to show the power of captaincy and the big hitters that you own doing the business on a given GW!

Possibly the roughest rough:

Steer (0) + Son (13) out for -4

for

Johnstone (0) + Mahrez (C) (8)

This transfer alone caused me 9 points alone. If I didn't get Mahrez in, I would have captained Bruno (12) instead which would net me another 6 points, so total of 15 pts.

GW rank of almost 6million 51(-4) where almost everyone else had either KDB, Kane, Salah or Son. I had none.

63 points. Captaining Bruno over kdb and salah did not turn out too well. Bamford and Cancelo returns were good. Benched two Villa players and tried to navigate through the week but could have been better. Jota 1 point was also bad. Need to do better next week.

Smooth: Finally a successful captaincy with KDB and a good GW with 84 points.
Rough: Still managed to lose in the head-to-head league by one point. Also, my transfer was Soucek->Mahrez. Did not think that would go wrong. 😀

Soucek > Mahrez(C) wasn't my finest move

Smooth-Saturday! A rare win on the pep roulette and jump of 1m places.

Rough-Sunday! All the highly owned assets I don't own haul and I lose the 1m places from the day before. 🙁

Smooth: 78 points after the hit. KDB(C), Sterling, Cancelo starting. Transfers were Rashford to Salah and Maupay to Adams for -4.

Rough: seems like everyone else had a good week too so only went from 3.7M to 3.2M. Rough season...
