Very respectable 78 points, I think Isak was the one to get you over the line. Everyone has Palmer and Son but Isak is quite low owned in our pool.

Got thim this week, I kinda feel Newcastle's coming out of their bad patch and they have a nice run of games coming. I expected more people would have him, but if you have Haaland Isak is probably not a transfer you can make.
I actually expected that Salah would be awarded the assist for that Diaz goal - in FPL everything is an assist so I feel somebody stole a few more points from me.

Cryptofka on 60 points already and the highest in our mini league is 41. You missed big time. 

I would walk over that league if we had the same starting point
Thing is, I played most of my chips and in a short season it will be the difference.
I would have still played with you, but I hope I can still et the 5th place here. Especially after today

[buwaytress]

Come on boys! Even though I had a chance to win a prize in the main league I joined the second chance league. Having different things to play is always nice. On top of that don't forget that there are names such as Igebotz,buwaytress who don't know how to play in this league. It shouldn't be very difficult to take their money.

Are you guys enjoying your free money from us idiots yet? cryptofrka biggest loser, getting so many points and missing out on our league. And silly little me sitting down at the bottom. Was there ever going to be any other outcome?

Or is this the hustler move I'm not known to pull off?

My bad luck about Watkins injury, not sure who to replace him with so am going to keep him on anyway. Hate these hamstrings, you can't tell if it's short-term or not.

Yes, I also have him on the team, but I don’t have any particular problems with replacing him. Firstly, in the game with City, he would not have scored points in any case (it seems so to me), and secondly, I am already so far behind the leaders that there is no point in choosing the optimal team since I need to focus on individual rounds in an attempt to get a yellow cap. I have a wild card and apparently before the next round I will completely change the team.

@Trofo @Cryptofrka I’m not sure how the FPL challenge is supposed to work completely, I think it’s a unique challenge for each game week, because the current week is not unlimited budget but rather forward focus or something like I can’t remember, but Forward players are going to be have their points doubled (2X), and it’s as though the league is only valid for one game week, I’m not sure about this though, I just can’t see the league in the current week tab, perhaps it could be visible once the deadline has passed ?

You could be right, I heard someone say it is just weekly based.

If that is the case we can just tally weekly wins and winner takes all. Now I won the first one so if you guys want out we can just forget about our bet.

If you are still up for it we continue and see how it looks.

It’s in for a penny, in for a pound for me, I’m down with whatever the final decision is, I just hope it’s not my worse fear of being an independent weekly where one needs to join the league again every week, that would be a strenuous especially in terms of keeping tabs and apparently creating a new league every week, I guess we’ll find out soon enough, and budget for the new challenge isn’t unlimited like the last one.

The more I hear about it, the more annoyed I am. If you guys are going to play I will honor my part of the agreement and send the buy-in fee, but I won't be playing.

I don't think the general idea is that bad, it just seems like a hassle I can currently live without.

You're overconfident and couldn't give up 1mBTC for 4mBTC. I'm giving CLS63 the biggest challenge of his life down that pit hole. I'm struggling to fit Salah into my team; he's a possible TC this game week, but it may also be a trap.

We're the luckiest idiots on earth right now and I'm going to make our camp very proud.

@Trofo I hit 70 points on my first EPL challenge come outside!!!!

@nelson4luv it's good to have you back brother - I'm your biggest fan

Trofo, I think it's really not worth the hassle then, what say you ?

I mean, perhaps, we all should focus on other pools and stuff and call it a day with this one, the complexity isn't worth what anyone would have to play for 8 more weeks.

Fine with me. Consider it scrapped.

I will not delete the league and we can play for fun when we feel like it. Here is the league code if someone else wants to give it a try. No rewards and no buy in, just for fun.

@Trofo - nelson4lov joined the pool earlier but dropped out before the start of GW30. He rejoined somewhere around Sunday before the finish of GW30. The challenge currently is that his GW30 has yet to be added to the league; why?


Couldn't get Salah into my team so now I have to save 2FT before DGW to be able to do it. Salah blank incoming.....

Just the way game works. Should be there with all his points after the game finishes updating today. Check it after first game starts today and then let me know if there are some problems.

Frankly you are still the biggest favourite of this league because of still having TC. Stil if I do my best I think that I have a chance to win 4 mbtc. This week hasn't started well for me. I couldn't get a good return from the players in my squad until now. I hope my Salah captain choice would make me get one step forward.

TC could also go wrong - At this point in the season, nothing is certain. Son is the greatest captain fraud of all time, deliver for two GWs and dipping for 20. I knew not having Salah would harm me, so I activated my bench boast to cover any potential Salah haul, but I'm still hoping he blanks to keep me ahead.

@Trofo Thanks..

The round has started quite slowly, but all heavy hitters for this round are yet to play.
I expect a shitload of points from Salah, Darwin and Saka - LFC will want to reduce Arsenal's GD advantage by a bit and tomorrow is the perfect game to do so.

It is going ok for me so far without any City assets but there will be that 1 round where they will bring 40 points to everyone but me. Shouldn't be against Villa though.

Good point. Just today I read about scenarios when a golden match would be possible in the Premier League and the main requirement is that Arsenal be in third place because now their statistics are better than those of Liverpool and City. Now all three teams will try to improve it as much as possible in case of an equal finish on points. I prepared for this and, taking a wild card, chose three players each from Liverpool and Arsenal (City has a difficult game).

[Rruchi man]

I expect a shitload of points from Salah, Darwin and Saka -

From Salah, yes!
from Darwin Nunez, still a 50/50 chance, he has a reputation for missing goals.
then for Saka, he did not look very fit against City, Not sure he will have enough game time or even play at all against Luton. We have more difficult games upcoming.

LFC will want to reduce Arsenal's GD advantage by a bit and tomorrow is the perfect game to do so.

Arsenal have a chance to make it difficult for LFC to catch up on GD when they play Luton today, before LFC meet Sheffield tomorrow. Sheffield are the last on the table, but can be an upset for LFC.

[darbitmobilerecovery]

I think i forgot to put my team in place for this round, so im not gonna see them until this round finish and see how they develop. Sometimes you can have a surprise.

You were bang on for Saka. I never thought I would see the day he is dropped from the Arsenal squad, usually he plays if he can stand on his feet. Means either he is seriously injured or Arteta finally figured out that he needs to give the guy a break here and there.

Even Arsenal conserves some attacking options looks like way too much for Luton.


In other news, Pep roulette is on again, nobody is safe from now on 

[CLS63]

I was never expecting Foden to make a hat-trick today. I can see that only spack17 has Foden at top. The sadder thing for me is that my opponent in the second chance league igebotz has Foden. Even though we are just at the beginning of the league he has gained a big advantage.

It was a quite bad gw for me generally.
