Darwin Nunez against Arsenal, Who thinks he is going to blank?

I am not sure he even plays, he played a lot of minutes today but so did Gakpo. Tsimikas also played a lot of minutes and I am a bit worried about him as well. Need to get rid of either him or Lascelles and can't decide who to ditch. Lascelles has better fixture but bigger chance of loosing first team place sooner.

As you have Tsimikas on your bench you were going to win 1 more point if you transferred Solanke. If only you transferred Solanke. I don't agree with you that the decision was right.

I had good bench with Gordon and Lascelles 6 pointers waiting so it could have been worse. My problem is I went -4 and removed Haaland just to target Luton game for Solanke. Would have never done that if I knew that the game will not be played. But this is something out of our hands, only important thing is that Tom Lockyer is ok as much as he can be, this is just the game in the end and shouldn't be taken that seriously.

Points after being awarded can not be tempered with according to the rules. Why are they doing the entire opposite now.

I definitely have the same idea with you. I'm sharing the tweet related to the decision made last year:

I was thinking about buying Solanke instead of Jackson but I got off lightly. If I lost points for transfer and had a situation like this I would have really got very sad. But I think it was the right decision to be made. Because the match has been completely cancelled. There wasn't any need to wait this long to make this decision.

It seems Mitoma hasn't scored in 11 weeks... I decided to place a big bet on the goal on his behalf.

I hope this happens... in any case I will double the bet until he scores a goal. So we'll see where I end up in a couple of weeks.

Mitoma is a must-sell at this point, he's been rotated too many times this season, he's been managed to stay fit for his first Asian cup participation coming up..

This is Mitoma finally week in my team.

As the AFC Bournemouth-Luton Town FC match has been decided to be played again at the end of the season FPL board have decided to remove the points of the players who played in the match. This means a 4 points loss for me. I don't think it is fair that the points are taken back after the day ends. But there is nothing that could be done about it.

Freaking shitty decision by FPL Sad

I'm getting a 1 pointer Mitoma for Solanke, who definitely is bound for some extra points as well too, and I literally took a 4 extra points hit to bring in Solanke for the game week, all transfer concerning the players for either sides should have been reversed too, what is the essence or fairness for getting a double disadvantage just for bringing in a player, huh ?!

I'm beginning to have some doubts about Trippier. He was suspended for gw17 but prior to that, he performed very poorly against Tottenham's attack some weeks back and today, he was the reason why Chelsea won the tie and moved to the EFL semi finals.

I should have kicked Trippier out by now, but I still have Trippier in my team, and will keep him this week against Luton before I even consider subbing him out for another better option. I expect him to redeem himself from the mistakes against Chelsea and deliver good points for me against Luton who cannot be compared to them. It should also be a clean sheet for Martin Dubravka.

Maybe he's just been unlucky and can turn things around against Luton town. I will sell him off after gw19 because when they go up against Liverpool, Mancity and Aston Villa in gameweeks 20 - 22.

Has anyone measured Saka's average points this season? Is he truly essential, or is it all smoke and mirrors?

I did, he has 97 points so far and the total is currently 17 GW so thats around 5.7 points per GW. He missed out on GW8 so that would put him on 16 GW played so far and an average of 6 points per GW. I got him on my team since December and so far he has gotten 18 points out of 4 GW. Well depending on the fixtures, I guess he could have gotten way more points

Since it has been announced that the Bournemouth vs Luton Town will be replayed in its entirety and not finishing the last 30 mins, I believe the fair solution regarding the fpl points would be to remove all points gained in GW17 by players from BOUvsLUT, then not closing the scoring for GW17 until the match is replayed, once the match is completed then those points earned by players should be added to GW17, therefor the rematch fantasy points should not be counted during the double GW when it will be played.
I hope i am making sense.

Not gonna happen probably. If they wanted to do it that way we would not have blank and double game weeks.

There isn't a fair solution that will make everyone happy. Whatever they decide somebody will end up pissed about it. In the end it is just a game and few points shouldn't be that important. I am hating even the fact that GW is open. In the past GW would always end on time and no changes were possible afterwards. I lost many points do to that rule, when PL awarded goals to players after the match but FPL already locked the game.

I think that they are trying to make a decision that won't offend the players against the game as so many players transferred Solanke instead of Haaland. This week it won't be fair to give 0 point to the player who spent -4 points to transfer Solanke due to Haaland's injury. I think the best solution is to leave Solanke at 6 points and close the week.

Edit: I assume that FPL board are going to wait for the Luton-Bournemouth match to be completed to close the 17th week.

https://x.com/OfficialFPL/status/1736461434593190149

What does that mean? If Solanke scores a brace or Senesi scores a bullet header in the continuation, I will get more points? Grin

I also don't know. I think that FPL executives also don't know what to do now and they have made such decision to gain some time. Huh

That is not possible anymore. Game is rescheduled towards end of season so they have to decide what to do with players now. I am thinking games gets voided and your bench comes to the rescue. Not good for me since I went -4 to get Solanke but other way around isn't fair either.

I think there is a possibility of leaving the game week open, while the other weeks continue simultaneously, they have proper way of scoring every team and players on your team for that specific week when the match eventually gets completed, I guess that's the best way possible, and it let's the game progresses without any unnecessary repercussion of the unfortunate event that happened during the match.

Was it Ulven who sent these tables that showed how many jokers each team used?

Considering that this is my first time seriously playing, I'm actually quite happy being only 50 points from the top.
I'd like to see how much room I have there compared to the guys in front of me and can't find that info anywhere.

You can get that info from https://livefpl.net. Just type in your team ID (it shows you how to find it) and you can see all your leagues and cups and chips.

Get rid of Akanji, City cannot keep a clean sheet of their life depended on it.

My team has never been the same since I became i got a City defender; last season, they had a lot of clean sheets, and the only challenge was trying to get inside Pep's head to figure out who was going to play. This season, Pep's backline has been easy to predict, but there has been no clean sheet.

Route 2 sounds much better to me, I would want to remove both of those players and Watkins is great pick. Not so sure about Badiashile but that is your area of expertise. If he is playing majority of minutes than by all means. My choice was ~~Colvile~~ Colwill for Chelsea defense.

Badiashile is perhaps our finest defender, cool and very good on the ball, and has started 4/5 games since his return. Colwill is another good choice, but Badiashile hits the box for me in terms of pricing.

I have little transfer concern! I have Solanke, Halaand and Nunez at the moment and I want Watkins but...

1. Do Halaand to Watkins. Easy fix ( but I want Watkins for a long term and getting back Halaand might ruin my team.)

2. Use my 2FT to do Akanji to Badiashile and Nunez to Watkins.

Which route is better? I'm considering route 2. Since I want to get Akanji off my team.

Trofo wrong answers only.

Just bench Haaland you will want him in next GW if he is fit. If you wanted to remove him, you should have done it last week.

In my case that means Dubravka comes to the rescue but then Isak and Walker come off my bench for a net -3. (Excluding BPS which was never counted).

It never crossed my mind that Liverpool wouldn't be able to score any goal home today. I thought of choosing Solanke as the captain instead of Salah. However when I saw Salah's amazing statistics against Manchester United I didn't want to risk it. Is there anyone who knows something about the points of the Luton-Bournemouth match? I feel like 3 points were stolen from me.

You get to lose 3 points when your defense couldn’t manage it in keeping there 3 points. Haven’t checks your defense to find whom was on a boost and later lost their clean sheet, you would find your 3 points.

Meanwhile, it was very disappointing for me most of all. I mean, there was just no way I couldn’t see Liverpool and I don’t mean M. Salah per say though, he was my captain and I would have loved to have him score but still, not a single ball made it past Onana. I could see Liverpool doing their best in attacks all game, through the first half and continued in the second half but, not a goal. I mean, it was the hight of it.

Someone I wished to have left on the bench, Alvarez for Solanke.
