Bale recalled as Kane-less Spurs take on Brighton in final Gameweek 21 match

Team linked

OK. 72 points all out. Dallas in for Stones. Gundo cappo blank but at least have Salah.

69(-8)

-8 to get DCL & Cancelo in 🙁 but also got Barnes in who I captained 🙂

Bamford & Dallas left on bench 🙁

(C)ancelo and Stones benched, got Bellerin and Holding off bench and Salah became captain. 86 all out no hits taken.

Crap.

87, but took a 12 point hit.

Brought in Mane as a differential against Salah owners in my ML. No longer top of my ML.

RMT suggested Johnstone instead of Martinez, cost me 8 points, won’t be using it again.
Finished on 64.

74. Not great not terrible.

71 pts with gundo captain, overjoyed with that, Dallas in for stones

54, Digne captain fail

Kane to DCL so I could bench Bamford....

Sold Bamford for DCL like a few did..

Don't own salah

46 points, which isn't terrible but still not nice.

Sold Jesus and Klich for a -4
Bought Sterling(c) and Richarlison (vc)

31 points on my bench, including a random Sanchez 8 pointer

But finally some Jam...
Bamford and Dallas coming on for 21 points

76 pts, very happy. Jammy Salah (v) and Dallas points from the bench.

Trash. 22 points : (

Wilson sold for Kane and then Kane for DCL (net -18)

Zero min from 3 starting Defs (Stones/Cancelo/Mitchell)

Salah moved to VC for Gundo (-12)

But Holding/Emi/BamBam salvaged week for slight green

Fantastic.

Even though VAR ruined Ings(C) points, 76 pts(-4) & overturned a 20 point deficit in the cup.

We keep on feasting!

Rough - Sterling (c) fail.

Smooth - Salah (vc), Holding in for Sterling. 92 points and into the top 200 overall.

Jam week. Either lucky or not.

Cancelo, Stones, Chilwel and DDG(by me) benched.
Did Wilson to DCL for a hit
Yet scored 75. So Glad now.
Was at 1.9 million in GW 13 and now at 60k. Crazy season. Want go near last season's finish of 1644.

Terrible gameweek 🙁

Took a -4 hit in order to transfer
Kane + Soucek > DCL + Gondugan in a 3-5-2 formation leaving Bamford on the bench. In addition had both Cancelo + Stones and only one playing defender on my bench

Had to spend the 2 FTs on Vardy and KdB, so (C)a cell in for a hit.

Vardy to DCL vc
KdB to Pereira!

78 - 4

Blimey surprised at so many high scores. Limped to 46. Cancelo and stones owner, benched Bamford but thought they would be so many with worse tales of woe

Rough: Mane (c) DCL and Rodriguez in for a -8.
Smooth: Salah (vc), kept Bamford and Martinez 10 pointer
83 - 8 = 75 all out.

Smooth: Rashford to Salah for a hit and ©. It feels amazing when you follow your gut and it works out.
Bamford, Martinez, Dallas, Dias with brilliant returns.

Rough: Even though I had strong bench, I managed to get only 10 players out.

Cancelo and Chilwell, no jam from autosubs Soucek and Coufal. Transfered out Bamford to DCL and captain fail.

Rough,
1- I took a hit to bring Cancello and DCL, both blanked and so did most of my other players
2- I benched Bamford for the first time, for who? For Adams who played only 20 minutes and got 1 point
3- I captained Gundo
4- I was at top 200k, but my score for the gw is 33, so I'm expecting at least a 100k drop

Rough - Kane out for DCL
Smooth - Salah Captain and Holding in for Cancelo.

96 points game week. Makes up for the 64 I got in the double.

Rough:
- DCL bought for -4 for Fabio Silva, as a result Bamford benched...
- Captain Cancelo, vice Gundo
- Cancelo benched
Smooth:
- bought Thiago Silva over Chilwell in order to avoid rotation risk of the latter
- 10 points from Martinez

Rough:
- I sold Bamford (15pts) for Richarlison (2pts) for a hit.
- No shows from 5 players: Cancelo, Stones, Tierney, Saka & Mitchell, leaving me with 1 playing defender, Trent (2pts).

28pts for the gameweek after the hit. 🙁

Smooth: My initial, free transfer was Martial (1pt) to DCL (2pts)

Iv been waiting for this...

Sold for a - 8

Bam/Dallas/Holding =32

IN DCL/Digne(c) /Cancelo
=4pts

Also had Stones benched.

I make that a 36 pts better off if I had done nothing.

Bad, bad gw

Rough
1) Bought in Stones for a -4 10mins before deadline.
2) Captained Cancello.
3) My other transfer was DCL. Had I not bought him in for Brewster, I would have played Bamford instead of leaving him on my bench.

Smooth
VC was Salah, bringing a bit of respectability to my game week.

Overall 55-4 = 51pts, and a 30K drop in rank.

Rough
-8 to bring in DCL (C), Hamez (listened to Az) and Mane
Stones, Cancello, Mane no shows
No first 11 scored more than 3 points
Total of 18 points, giving me 10 points overall

Smooth
Bamford, Holding and Creswell off bench for 27 points

Utter garbage. I think this may be my lowest ever GW score in six seasons of playing.

Cancelo, Stones, Chilwell, Mitchell, Mane, Sterling (C) all zero.
Removed Bamford for DCL (VC)
Played Areola over Martinez.
21 points in total.

59(-4)
Smooth: Sterling no show, Salah vc
Rough: Sold Dallas+Bamford for Mitchell+DCL -4 (20 point swing just like that)

OR went from 20k to 50k before Liverpool game, now back to 28k

43 (-8) ... no transfers, correct subs and correct captain would have been 94 and a FT

I made 4 decisions that went wrong, with a total cost of 47 points.
If I count Gundo (3) over Salah (15) captain, that's another 12 points

Transfers, both for hits: Bamford (15) > DCL (2) = -17 / AWB (8) > Digne (1) = -11
Played wrong keeper: Martinez (10) - Schmeichel (2) = -8
Put Wilson second sub, behind Watkins (who played): Wilson (13) - Watkins (2) = -11

Rough: 39 points, Sterling(C) Son(vc), Cancelo no show... Neto and Coufal coming in for them.
Smooth: Martinez and Diaz saved if from being a disaster

Rough: Went all in on Everton. Got DCL and Digne in for a hit, and captained Digne.

Smooth: Did Rashford to Mane for a hit. Why smooth you may ask; well Mane no-show activated 3rd-bench Holding with his 8 points, so the transfer had a net swing of +1 points after subtracting the hit.

Rough: Should've just done Rashford to Salah for the hit.

Rough
benched Martinez for Areola, also Dawson for the 2nd week in a row scoring a goal but being rooted last on my bench, no Salah

Smooth
El Ghazi + Coufal to Barnes(c) & Rudiger -4 worked out well, also Wilson, Dias, with Bamford & Maguire climbing from my bench for Kane and Cancelo with an extra 20pts giving me 73pts -4 for the week and a nice green arrow

41pts
Rough: Bamford->DCL; Cancelo, Stones, Ziyech no shows; Gundo capt fail; went with Johnstone over Meslier in goal; Bruno blank
Smooth: Salah; Dallas off my bench
Second worst GW of the season. Dropped 75k spots to 175k. Roll on next round!

Roughs: Only 9 turned out with Cancelo, Sterling, Saka, Mitchell benching and Taylor injured.

Smooth: Soucek + Martial to Grealish + DCL immediate return. Jammy bench points from Salah VC and Bamford. First time into top milllion this season

My Bad:
Went Wilson to Kane early. Git in Justin and Mitchel for a tidy up (-8)
Kane injured -4 to DCL.
Mitchel did not play DCL 2 pointer.
Ignoring Justin a net loss of 20 points due to a lack of patience\!!!

Four defenders benched, including my captain and one injured.

Salah vice captain and a rank climb with 66 points.

Crazy game

Rough: Ayling & Bamford to Mitchell and DCL (-4) Sterling Captain, only got 10 players out thanks to sterling, mitchell, stones, kwp no shows.

Smooth: Salah VC pulling me to a 62 and very minor 1000 place red arrow!

You want rough?

I'll give you Rough.

AWB to Digne for a hit. (-4-8+1= -11)
Stones and Cancelo no show. Only one auto subbed(Dallas) in as Dier didn't play. (-12+7= -5)
Benched Bamford for Soucek. (-15+1= -14)

Approximately lost out on 30 points.

Smooth = Salah + Ing's sleeve.

67(-8). Dropped 12k places to 60k overall.

Roughs:
- Sold Dallas for Cancelo
- Played Johnstone ahead of Martinez
- Benched Bamford behind Antonio and Watkins
- Benched AWB.

Total of 31 pts on my bench of which Coufal’s 1pt came on for Cancelo.

48pts - 4.

Rough: Saturday, 2 non starters in defence and cup oppo had double Villa defence, look to be crashing out of the cup 23 points behind.

Smooth: Sunday, Bamford, Dallas and captain Salah come through and I storm through in the cup! A personal best 5 rounds!

79 with 9 men final score.

Smooth - when asking if team good before the gameweek started I was roundly complimented on what a strong team for the gameweek it was : Martinez; Cancelo, Stones, Digne, (Justin, Mitchell); Sterling, Bruno, Son, Grealish (ESR); Antonio, DCL, Ings.

Rough 34 points only, fell from 1330 to 6500 rank, ko'd from the cup, confidence shattered!

Brought in DCL for Kane and captained Gundogan with Stones and Cancelo benched and also played Johnstone instead of Martinez so big fail as didn't own Salah (put that right last night). Bamford and Dallas off bench saved my GW. 51 points and small red arrow

I had a poor week but cup opponent unluckier. He bench boosted and ended up with Cancelo, Sterling, Mane on bench after autosubs. Johnstone his only points from his BB.

First bad gw in a while as I moved from a early season greedy hit frenzy to a more measured approach. It was going so well I got greedy again...

Early transfer of Bamford-> DCL as I was fed up with 2 pointers from Bamford. At a cost of 5.7, I should have just accepted the blanks as overall he's just over performing.

Then kane injury... and lack of gundog led to clicking the wildcard. Highlights were diaz-> chillwell, gundog(vc) in for esr
Stones, (C)ancello, and obvs chillwell no shows, playing
I've captained salah through thick and thin when I've owned him but again got greedy
47 all done, and out of the cup
Last weeks team would have been 80 even with kane on the bench.

Not a very good week, but I'll take it seeing as I was on 14 points going into Sunday and finished on 53.

Rough: Sterling(c) benched, had brought Stones in for Pieters - benched, KWP injured, Kane injured, so only got 10 out.

Smooth: Bruno(vc) so at least got the 6 points. Salah and Bamford saving me yesterday. Konsa my only other return. Nearly took a -4 to switch Kane to DCL, glad I didn't. Played Romeu instead for 2 points.

Another red dropped from 348k at Xmas to 565k in steps. Could have been worse though.

Big week for me. 91 points. Salah (C), Barnes, Dias, Martinez, Raph and Bamford all bringing it home. 220K > 101K.

Ruff decided to wildcard after two great weeks in a row climbing 290k in places and wild carded into this

Mandy
Chillwell Mitchell aurier stones
Mahrez (c) Sterling grealish
Brewster Kane Abraham

Fpl it’s either the best of times or worst of times dropped back down to the 300k rank:(

Rough: needed Salah to be quiet for just... one... more... half... as he was a planned FT back in this week

Spoiler: Salah didn’t be quiet

Turned a small green into a large red - when Mane wasn’t on the teamsheet it was bound to happen tbf

6 goals & 1 assist in his last 3 appearances with no Mane (Palace, Utd in cup, West Ham)

Hopefully Sadio not fit for Brighton...

72 (-4) so not too bad.
Smooth: Martinez, Grealish, Bamford, Salah, Dallas coming in for Stones.

Rough: My captain switch from Salah to Son at 1:00pm (the actual deadline minute) actually went through.

200% rank drop from 1,600 to 4,900... Bamford killed me and Martinez on my bench was painful. Horrible weekend, but still handsomely placed and glad we're straight back into it tomorrow. 47(-4).

Rough:
Brought in Digne & DCL.
Defence of Cancelo-Stones-Mitchell
Gundo (C)
Lost all H2H games. Out of cup to a dead team. Doubled my OR.

Smooth:
I don’t have to wait long until the next GW!

Rough:
*Chilwell, Cancelo, Stones* defence all missed out on clean sheets.
Of course, this week there's nobody on my bench after Soucek (15 points) last week and Justin (14 points) the week before!

Smooth:
Bamford?

Ah the place to vent, this week I did Bamford and Decor-Reid out to Watkins and DCL for a hit....25 point swing, add last weeks TAA and Soucek to Gundo and Shaw for a hit and that 40 point total swing explains why I’ve dropped below 100k and I’m not making a transfer this week, ended on 55 this week thanks to 12 from the neck which was better than my DGW bench boost #freefalling

Rough - None of my 3 starting defenders, Cancelo Stones and Dier actually started. In came Coufal and Kilman.
On top of that, my transfer this week was Wilson (who i'd held since GW12) to DCL...who i then captained

52 points..meh

UTTER CAR CRASH...

where to start...

I sold, Kane / Dallas and Soucek for DCL, Stones and Gundogan (captained) - FOR A -8

Also had Cancelo

And I benched Bamford (who did not come on)....

53 (-8) - 45 points all out......

Rough Rough Rough

GW20 Play Bamford Bench Soucek 15 pointer
GW21 Play Soucek Bench Bamford 15 pointer

Also Stones & Cancelo no shows lead to Coufal and Justin 1 pointers off the bench
Capt Gundogan VC Salah....everyone else in my ML Capt Sterling VC Salah

Smooth

Dallas goal & Martinez 10 pointer

50 pts first red arrow in 10 GWs. 250k OR.

85 points.

Salah captain and bamford doing the business.

Rob Holding managed to sub in from 3rd sub after stones and mitchell no show.

Into top 100k for first time in 4 seasons.

40(-4).
Cancelo (C) / Mane (VC) = total captain blank
Punished by transfers Rashford/Bamford > Mane/DCL

Rough
Sold Wilson > DCL with FT
Played Rash/coufal > benched bamford/Dallas
Gundo (C)

Seemed logical decisions
Newcastle poor attack
Leicester good defence
City/gundo on a roll whilst salah not performing

But 41 point swing

Sold wilson and holding for dcl(vc) and mitchell.sterling(c) stones cancelo non show and played mccarthy instead of martinez.woeful

23 points on wildcard.

Lowest score ever
