Ok 😀
🙂
I had question about this thing on last page.
Turnip
Good word.
Only slightly rude.
What a fail
haha
Ahhhhhh take that! 😆
i was helping you.... 😀
I thought you were the post counter. OK so who were we preventing? Haha. Which mysterious post counter remains poised for the next one, brushing off our childish attempts at sabotage with a sinister smile?
Richardinhos trying to be poacher turned gamekeeper Scoredelario. 😉
Haha, this was the first time I did it, and I only did it since for some reason every single time I post a longer analytical post it tends to get bottomed which is annoying as I spend a few mins putting them together. 99% of the time I don't give a crap where my posts end up though 🙂
😆
Salutations!
G'day Bsloe how you going?
Not too bad Zan. Christmas has somehow managed to sneak up on me though so I've left a lot of it to the last minute lol How are things with you?
All good. Got a baby due in less than a week so about to turn hectic. Think my team may suffer as a consequence after cracking 1k this week. Priorities and all that.
Oh wow! Congratulations mate. Judging by a few here seems like you'll likely end up with two teams now. One for you, one for the baby 😆
Well look what the cat dragged in, if it isn't thy noble Badger himself 😉
How's it going Zasa mate?
Good bud, finally broke into a sensible rank 🙂
How about you mate?Good mate but got slight screwed this week. Azpi and Dzeko out cost me dear.
I saw man 🙁
No one could have seen it coming though Badger.
Dust it off, & tomorrow's a new day mate 😉
Azpi is well rested now, & you have a great BAPs magnet there 🙂
If you need any help, feel free to ask Badger 😉Will do mate. Got BOny in as you suggested I think. Nothing else to really do but sit back and wait for the games so I havent been on here much. Dealing more with Christmassy stuff lol
How about yourself?Great move man! The man's an animal & Montero's on some great form, delivering great balls.
Even if the Swans don't score too many goals, Bony always gets a big portion in the critter's cake. Keep in mind Bony has been punishing you more then Costa, perhaps it'll be DC's time to go soon if RvP's form keeps up.
🙂 Christmassy stuff eh? Buying already for the family? Or for yourself 😉 ?
Getting off work a few hours ago & dealing with some exams soon 😯 Plus a little bit of playHaha I live abroad so I had to gather up some stuff and post it home. Also having friends over to m apartment for xmas means I have to tidy the place up and get the shopping list out too for Xmas dinner/ Then the following day I will be going abroad on my holidays. All of this is kinda rushed as my bloody passport and credit card expired last month so I had to rush to get new ones in time lol hectic stuff.
Ha! Where do you live Badger? I'm guessing Australia eh?
😯 I know exactly what you're going through man, all of that in the span of a couple of week is mind bending! Jesus mate, looks like you did your head in couple with Dzeko in there too 😉
Abroad? Well good riddance to you then pal!
We can all use a good break from this 🙂I live in Korea mate. Holiday will be nice alright though I might miss 4 GW's in the space of a week 😯 Hopefully will get some wifi somewhere lol
who are your top 2 GK till the WC in Jan?
Hart.
He may actually be the best choice for the rest of the season actually. Guaranteed to finish top 2-3 in the GK rankings, with great home fixtures all the way inWho would your backup be?
Hamer right now.
I'm stuck with Elliot though, not that I care 😀
he doesnt pick up enough save points to keep long term.
he won't have to if he's basking in CS's...
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2014/12/11/the-scoutcast-episode-145-retro/?hc_page=9#hc_comment_9106332Great read! So who's a worthy backup if hart is #1?
he averages maybe 160pts/season. you can also easily get a 4.5 keeper who will get between 140-160 pts. depends on value really
+ factor in home rotation on keepers its possible they could outscore hart on his own
So who would you recommend?
Oh i was meaning long term, not specifically to january WC. For now i would go with Hart yes (in fact i have him). After that Maybe a combo of panti/krul as they rotate home/away perfectly, both cheap, and both play for teams that keep CSs at home. i haven't looked at their home fixtures yet though... i prefer 2x cheapies personally.
Maybe I'll go that route. Thx for the advice!
If you want to rotate then Panti-Fabianski is the best option imo.
I'm really tired of rotating though as i had bego-krul and fab-eliot and left 3-4 cs's on the bench up to now.
you never know who will get a CS, so i'm gonna go with the 1 main man from now on i thinki went 1 keeper this season (myhill) as i also used to hate having the keeper points on the bench, but i regret it a lot. Bego and stoke had totally lost form and i had noone to bench him for which was annoying. at least with 2 playing keepers one of the sides may hit a run of form so you play them each week. Begovic burnt me badly this season.
hart is a safe pick though. on-form, great team, good defense, good fixtures...
the thing is that all his good home fixtures are bunched up from now onwards in the 2nd half of the season, so he should get more of his points this season in the next 10-15 games
yeah they do look good. sunderlands home games also very tempting, i think a rotation with Krul could work nicely.
the DGWs will throw a spanner in somewhere too, where i will want to have a DGW keepers on my bench for future 🙂
This is a very good post btw.
i prefer cheap keepers that play for teams that are strong at home and defences that encourage long range shots/keepers accumulate easy saves. there always seems to be a cheap alternative each season that does well thoughpanti is a great option for that i think
Good spot on home city fixtures. Obviously means some tricky away games but it also clearly shows city are far from out of the title race.
Mangala might be a nice little punt or if you have a good enough backline then clichy not bad as he seldom comes on if he doesn't start and he is cheap enough to rotate for home games.mangala has 4yc's, otherwise i'd get him
Panti & Hart
No love for DeGea?
if its just to january wildcard you dont need to rotate hart as his fixtures are great. just get Hamer as a cheapie in emergency for an injury.
If you're thinking about GK transfer for hits, or FT's, they really aren't all that necessary
Especially for GW's like these.Hart is definitely worth a hit if you don't have a playing GK though... CPL wba BUR SUN
I've had Forster and Jaku had DeGea till Gw 5 then switched to Forster and haven't looked back. Time to change it up. Maybe Hart/Panti?
Really depends on the rest of your team IMO, do you have 2 FT's? Or any liabilities in your team?
Fab-Panti perhaps? 10.5 is too much for gk's
Indeed, but this is not the case it seems Rick 😉
I went Panti for a hit w/ no playing GK
Hits for keepers are generally a no-go though, trannies also now with other priorities in most people's teams .
GK's have low ceilings compared to a possible front 8 transfer, I'd steer clear of putting too much emphasis on my GK's 😉with no playing GK (eg Fab) the hit is only worth a -4, and i'm sure hart will pay that off for a lot of people (in fact he already has)
I'm sure he will, but the fact of the matter is, he has no injury concerns & has a playing GK for this w/e. There's no reason to prioritize a GK move now.
Panti has already payed my hit off this week, & I'm aware even Heaton could pay off the hit.
Why would you be recommending hits for keeper when they are already have a playing one? Your argument is not valid here, since Forster is indeed deemed fit. There's no advantage to be had here with Hart's favorable fixtures, Foster is playing. It;s that simple.
I'd recommend him toI said that a hit was only worth it if he didn't have a playing GK.... Didn't realize he had one. No hit necessary then.
oops, i mean "only worth a -2"
This page needs to start again
This.
It can be arranged. How many posts would that take?
There's 30 on each page 😉
More when I'm around 😉
Why? Do you delete some? 🙂
Anyone advice will be greatly appreciated !
Heaton (Fab)
Bertrand Azpi Dummett ( yun hutton )
Hazard Sanchez YaYa Siggy ( boyd)
Costa Sakho Cisse
Thinking of FT Bertrand to Clichy
And thinking YaYa and cisse for Eriksen and Bony
For -8
Any thoughts
I just brought Yaya in last week but this weekends game made me sick how lazy he played !!!
Should I keep him for the next few week or sack him now ??
Keep Yaya! Play Fab over Heaton and you're good to go 🙂
You have to hold Yaya.
Bert to Clichy maybe, would prefer to Zaba
I would make Cisse in to Austin.
The team is pretty goodCalm down. He always play like that 😛
Cisse to Austin and you are sorted 🙂Yaya always looks like that. Keep him.
you guys rock !!! thank you !!
So, ADM is apparently fit to face Villa.
Should I do Mata -> Silva?Would make sense. Maybe hold one week. Id Di Maria back would expect him to be on the bench first game
He wasn't out for too long. Doesn't need to be eased back, imo.
Yes, Mata will be the one to "make way" for ADM
Hold your horses, no rush for the trannie.
If your team's in good shape, surely you can draw a better conclusion 'til after the game, no?
Ricardo Carvahlo. In the twilight of his career in Monte Carlo.
They don't make defenders like him any more. More's the pity.Always hated the fecker.
Me too at first. Absolutely filthy player. Then I realised how class he was. Let nothing past.

Costa lukaku bonyYes. Easy. Unless you really want to ditch Lukaku.
Just seen the 3 way tie for overall first place with our man timtastic in the mix.
People have done it before to show off. Rick might not be one of them, though but the skepticism about him can be justified. He is certainly contributing tremendously to this site. I don't have problem with him either.
.... and again.... 🙂
Morning, Gnu. 🙂
Howdy pal, how's your gameweek been?
81 Points! Runaway leader in my MLs. What more do I want! 🙂
Just had a peek. You're same as me - green arrows since the HWC. 🙂
Keep climbing the leaderboard.
Anyhoo, offski to bed.
lol @ me.
Well at least somebody will read this. the reply would've fallen on deaf ears.
To be honest I was very active on this site in my first year, and while I am sure I have improved a lot since then, there are some truths which will be diluted in our minds by reading some of the mistruths that become legend on this site.
Things like fear of doubling up, fear of selling highly owned players, distorted memories due to memorable gameweeks, captain fails or that week you didn't own Costa doe a hatteick etc etc. Experience does take away some ability to play this game with a fresh and open mind.Costa doe a hatteick. I'm sure you all remember that
Being active on this site have made me boring, no creativity at all 😆
I bought Costa out of fear haha. The stats were there though, so its not like I bought him for ownership alone however.
NBNC Baines is bollocks too. He's a defender just like any other one, and away to City or Chelsea is fine to bench him, as I did last GW.
Is this about counting posts? If so, I'm not someone who does that as I read to the bottom of every page and don't care much for jumping ahead but rather scroll back a page or two where the pace of discussion is usually at a more sensible level 🙂
GW17 :
OUT : Mirallas
IN : Silva
Would Nasri had been a more sensible move here ?
LOVING nasri for the next few weeks
Good move with Silva in my opinion
Nasri over Silva and Yaya over both.
PIECE OF STATS :
> Points Earned Per minuted played :
This season : Nasri = 0.041 Silva = 0.052
Last Season : Nasri = 0.062 Silva = 0.0698
For every 90 minutes played Silva generally earns about 0.85 points more than Nasri.
Conclusion : Not worth taking it for an extra 0.6m
Feeling a little unloved. 🙁 I posted a long piece last week pulling apart RVP stats using some publicly available info, received a couple of +1s and had it butchered (I presume by a mod). Rickardinho takes a shot at RVP's stats this week, receives +14 and has all those lovely stats left intact so far.
The ironic bit is my thoughts on RVP have swung away from Rickardinho's view this week (and my view last week). 😛Was it during DZ?
Yes. A particularly dead part of the DZ.
Strange. Posts like that are always well recived in DZ.
Rename yourself Divardinho.
this might help 😀
🙂
Awwww, do you want a hug? 🙂
*hug* Thanks Rick. 🙂
Do you have a link to your post? Would love to read it
There's almost nothing left of it. Someone edited down to my introductory sentence: "Why all the love for RVP on here tonight?" Or something like that.
Too many stats?
Apart from some match stats that were being widely reported that night, I actually took steps to disguise the stats in my own percentage analysis as I didn't want people to think I was giving away member stats (even though you can find the data I was using from other sources).
I never saw it. It might have been reported though so that would have been the issue. Tables over stats on here are always better. They are a few others who are borderline with the stats they post.
Thanks for the advice TM.
how many upvotes does it take to make you feel loved?
3
I'm not really concerned about the up votes, but the editing hurt because I put some work into it.
I guess the editing occurred due to breaking T&C's (members area)?
I assumed that was why it happened, although I hadn't meant to. Which is why I only mention in now, having seen Rickardinho's post (which I'm not suggesting anyone edit, by the way).
Can't say I'm a fan of it.
Thanks for the replies all (and the sympathy +1s).
🙂
1. First, stop being a Yaya.
2. Next, submit this work of yours as a member's article if you want it noticed / validated.
3. Easy game.1. 😆 I wouldn't call forgetting about it then only mentioning it in a light-hearted way when someone else does something similar and gets a completely different reaction doing a Yaya, but I like the attempt at a football analogy.
2. It was an off the cuff idea that became something more, I wasn't seeking validation or notice.
🙂
Baines > City defender for (-4) ?
Think it might be worth it longer termNot for me.
Nah not for a hit.
I'm re-thinking it for free w/the Mirallas news. Will wait on scan news. If he's out keeping Baines. He was screwing up Baines' FPL appeal.this
I would have said yes but, if Mirallas is injured again, look out... it's Baines left flank all over again.
Not for me, no.
For so this w/e, with Mirallas out injured
Give Baines this last chance IMO
Posted this earlier today but wanted to repost in the Deadzone in case any of you are on here.
Pardon the long post. This update is months late but with the CL draw today, it might still be helpful. Apologies for letting it slide as some of you put some thought into these picks.
Before the Champions League began, I asked people to make predictions and pick the teams they felt would advance the furthest in the tournament. A win would get you the points value of your team's chosen ranking (from 32 for the best to 1 for the Ludo-est) and a draw would get you the average of the two teams' rankings.
Here are the results after Group Stages have finished.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wdBCsUAU2Gq1T7WnCdF9epGh2aJWaFdrklhSjrMcxWo/edit?usp=sharing
König Luther is winning at 1949, but we are all remarkably close. Points are awarded
2x Knockout round of 16
4x Quarterfinals
6x Semifinals
8x Champion
So there is much still to play for. Monaco, Basel, and Dortmund have the greatest amount of deviations from the mean (indicated in green or red). In addition, some people have two powerhouse choices drawn against each other, much like the actual game, but TorresLove for example has top 8 choices in 7 of the remaining fixtures, a huge advantage.
Will repost in the Deadzone where it originally was hatched, but some of you in the day zone also participated. Cheers and apologies again for letting it go for the past few months.Thank you, green man.
Torres working his magic there
You put some effort in 🙂
Wow! I totally forgot I entered this.
Obligatory *Thanks mate!*
Thanks for the update! Looks like I'm doing quite well, which is somewhat surprising. How do some end up with scores ending in .5? I thought points are awarded according to the weight given to the advancing teams, hence no decimals.
Nice work so far. As for the half points, if two teams draw then the player receives the average of their points. So a 10 vs a 13 draw is an 11.5 for the player.
Ah, thanks. Didn't realize that subtlety... Thought that advancing was all that mattered, not the actual draw.
Thanks again for putting this together!
How does this look....good to go (0.4 in bank)?
Heaton (Myhill)
Zab / Iva / Wisdom (Caullker / Hutton)
Fab / Yaya / Dow / Haz (Jedinak)
Roo / Kane / Bony
Looks great
Would y'all do anything drastic to this?
Guzan
Baines, Azpi, Dummett
Downing, Mata, Siggy, Hazard
Kane, Costa, Austin
(Foster, Bolasie, Chambers, Wisdom)
Looks good! Keep an eye on Mata & Chambers.
Drastic, no. Mata to a City midfielder - probably.
I like Mata, actually. He scores goals and seems to be flourishing.
Cheers guys.
good morning
I'm already planning out my Jan WC team.
Am I a bit too addicted to this game?
Mine will probably have at least one player that currently doesn't play in the EPL
Ronaldo?
Welcome to the ultra chap back5 😛
Wont happen thoughCheap
Blah. All wildcards should be taken out from the game, IMO.
I think the January wildcard should be ditched. One should be enough and if you make a balls of it, then tough luck!
Does anybody else feel that the RMT tool is the equivalent of blood doping in sport?
Never used it never will> Does anybody else feel that the RMT tool is the equivalent of blood doping in sport?
No.Some people think it's useless. I'm not one of them but probably should use it more.
If I ever got to the stage where I let a computer program decide my team then I will be giving up this game
So, what are we bitching / speculating / pontificating about tonight kids?
Milner.
Bainesy! Should return to beast mode now that greedy little git is injured!
Price changes?
Hazard up. Meh down.
Risers: Hazard
Fallers: Vorm, Lawrence
Wisdom Or Clark?
Clyne Yaya Kane
or
4.7m def Silva Benteke?
Trying to figure out the right move for a City attacker, any thoughts would be appreciated.
Definitely Clyne yaya kane.
Am leaning that way.
Mirallas -> Silva ?
Or save a FT ?
Do it.. Silva & yaya the attackers for city until kun returns & easy fixtures.
Ben Davies. Still 4.4 m. Bound to get involved in some attacks soon. Might play in C1 tomorrow night. Christmas bargain 🙂
Spurs' defense isnt good imo. Waste of FT!
As good as Villa, Burnley etc similar priced defenders. Good fixtures and he could bring attacking returns.
Prefer O'Shea. Only 4 clean sheets for Spurs compared to Burnley's 5 and Villa's 4.
Good for home games, not sure about away where they have conceded 13 times in 8 games 🙂True. But the worst defence has a chance with Lloris. Might ship him for Duff.
Good move in that case. I am doing Duff to O'Shea next week 😛
exactly what i did
> Ben Davies. Still 4.4 m and unfortunately plays for Tottenham.
I have so much cash that I couldn't even consider him until wildcard time.
