Quite a blow to lose Diogo Jota too early into a double game week that I expected way too much returns from him, but he's at least pay some sort of dividends in the short period he played for with that assist that Darwin Nunez was able to convert perfectly.

Now Mo Salah is officially back  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

It's a huge blow to me and my team. I initially wanted to include Salah, but skipped it because there's no way to get Salah, Haaland, Saka + some other differentials on a tight budget. I watched the game and that Jota assist really impressed me only to see him gets subbed up later Salah which was a pain to watch. Now I can only hope that he gets fit again before that Luton game. What's bad about this is that even if he comes back before that Luton game, Klopp will start Salah ahead of him.

It was unforseen so I won't blame myself too much. I hope other members of my team can deliver.

He will have to find another way to celebrate when he scores because we all expect him to score.
Scoring and getting a yellow for a tribute to mama is fun - everyone does it.

Buwaytress knows I consider him a friend, and that was just that. A way to honor his incredible talent of picking poor fantasy options. That is also fine since he is kicking my ass often in other pools. Just like he just took AFCON money home.

You are on the other hand a perfect target for all kinds of jabs since we always get a reaction  Grin Hope we will catch a drink once as well. It is always nice to put a face to nickname.

You are definitely right about Haaland yellow, going to place a bet now on it and then martingale a shit out of it if it doesn't land.
I should be getting paid for my reactions as the Sherrif ( oh I'm getting paid ) Lol.

I haven't looked into the option of downloading bet history on SB, but one day I might ask Buwaytress to email it to me just for fun--I'd like to see his crazy bet slips and what he does with his favourite kid Darwin Nunez every season.

I am not a mansqarade, and I lost my privacy a long time ago; if the forum calls for an actual meeting, I will be the first to come. My face is too gorgeous to hide. We're going to get a drink. I'm not sure when or where, but it will happen.


Halaand to be carded ( Yellow) is 5.5 odd on Russian bookies. I'm gotta make some folks rich this weekend.

This robot has a strange way of discrediting efforts; we know buwaytress had no idea how he got there, but you didn't have to make it so obvious. In FPL, the more differential points you score, the higher your chances of reaching the top.



FYI  Halaand Yellow card this weekend is guaranteed - he's going to pull off his shirt for mama when he scores and miss the next game to rest.

As Manchester City are going to play both matches home this week I don't think we can find a better opportunity than this for Haaland TC. Even though he couldn't score in the Copenhagen match I think he was effective.

Most people probably would have already TC him including me as well but after reading news about his grandmother, I dont think he is mentally fit to even score that many goals.
It is a two way thing, it is either he is not mentally fit to play, or he is very mentally fit to play and score goals in honor of his Grandmother. The assist will surely come and chances for him to finish.

Tricky part is that the funeral is 2 days after the second City game so that could be a banana skin.

So there is a chance that Pep might even left him out of the lineup for the 2nd game huh considering that they are only playing against Brentford then I dont really think Pep would even need Haaland to fetch him some goals. It is what it is I guess, I decided to TC him this round so yeah I dont think there will be better upcoming round to do so

I forgot to proclaim 1 mBTC free bet winner, probably because it is buwaytress this time and nobody expects that from him in Fantasy  Grin

Kidding aside, this was done on Luis and Luiz points that came differential for him. Congrats on very nice 85 points.

@buwaytress- Bitcoin is for solving problems that's my ideology of Bitcoin.

Even though he couldn't score in the Copenhagen match I think he was effective. He showed that he could score at any moment in the last 20 minutes of the Everton match too. TAA's getting injured ruined all my plans. I had to spend -8 points for transfers this week.

Klopp saying Salah's fit is the worst thing that could happen to me, now I have to reassemble everything once again.
I'll probably take him, although he surely won't start tomorrow. But he'll probably start vs. Luton - which is one of the easiest games of the season.

The other thing that bothers me is who to captain. Now with Salah back, Nunez isn't guaranteed to start both games. Go with KDB? Meh, City has worse games than Liverpool.

Whatever I do, I'll overthink it and fuck it up Grin

It looks like everyone is doubling down on their teams to rack in MASSIVE points. Not me though as I'm still in a dilemma.

What 3 City players are Y'all getting?

KDB, Foden, Haaland or KDB, Foden, Alvarez or what other combo? I want to get Haaland but I saw this earlier in the week from NotATether:

Oh you won't believe it, I am so pissed right now.

Few days after I brought Haaland (finally) in my squad, his grandma dies and now he is a major doubt for the upcoming DGW.

I had to rip apart my squad just to kick him out.
~

For Liverpool, I might go with Jota, Lucho, and maybe a defender or Alisson if at all he is back from the illness of last week. So much to consider as I plan to maxima ten this GW25.

What about Luton x Brentford assets? Toney, anyone?

Re: Haaland it could be a ruse. Pep played him in the CL match and I think he might have even scored.

Tricky part is that the funeral is 2 days after the second City game so that could be a banana skin.

Either way, I went Jota + Haaland => Salah + Alvarez just to be safe.

But with so many people TCing the robot, that could be dangerous.

PS. Don't overlook Arsenal assets this week.

Guys, can I use TC and Wildcard in the same game week?

Hi guys one newbie question, i see some players have two games below his names, so they are gonna take into account two games for this week, if i choose one of them as a captain the captain multiplier is gonna affect both games right?
Yes. That is called double game week and we all like to target those players. This week City and Liverpool players are super popular pick while someone maybe even takes someone from Luton or Brentford.

Lies! Coming from an early Bitcoiner, I'm sure your stash of BTC is 3 worth figures, if not 4  Cheesy

Lol. The lucky bastard might be telling the truth;  Grin All of the Bitcoin I purchased at $300 I sold for $800-$900, making a significant profit to solve my problems at the time.

I don't make it a secret that I don't invest or trade. Bitcoin is just how I've been getting paid since 2016. Full-time freelancer, so yes, my wallet has seen 3 figure Bitcoin volume, but I sell almost all of it every time I get paid for bills etc. Even liquidated virtually everything I'd set aside as savings in Dec 2020, no regrets even though ATH came a year later, it was a personal emergency and it solved a huge problem.

As fate would have it I had another personal emergency last summer, so once more wiped out my BTC. My hardware wallet costs more than the balance now, even have more in Sportsbet account haha, even my kids actually have more BTC in their wallets but that's what I saved for them, not for me to ever touch.

I have very modest sums for gambling, but it's budgeted every season, and whatever I do win generally goes back to the house haha.

So, like Igeh's situation, Bitcoin's definitely helped solve problems for me (saving in fiat alone I'd be in bigger, deeper trouble). I do shed tears every ATH, but the point of savings is rainy days, and the hope is always that rainy days come very, very far ahead in future.

Off topic, but you know, good to share wink wink.

Hey, hey, you guys better watch out for me! 85 points is very nice, isn't it? I even have 8.5M in my FPL bank, waiting to see what I can do with it.

Thank you Trofo Wink

Good thing you were joking about 100 BTC; if I lose, even my kidney/eye/liver etc wouldn't fetch more than 1 BTC at best market rates Wink

People who held it for an extended period of time either misplaced their seed phrase or wallet.dat at some time, and were fortunate to get them back after a long period of time.

I haven't used any of my chips this season, but it's now time. Stuck at the same position for 3GWs now. Lol.

If he doesn't have a special occasion you are absolutely right. However this situation can vary from person to person. For example as my grandmother and grandfather raised me their loss would affect me more than my parents'.

He'll surely pay his respect and all, but I don't think that will keep him away from the team, honestly knowing fully well that he barely just returned from injury and would need all the playing time he can get to be anywhere near being as match fit as possible and finding his incredible as well.
I don't even know why this became news. His grandmother passed away 2 days before CL match and je played that. Burial is organised 2 days after last game in double.

A bit disturbing all that is shared freely in press but now that it is I don't see why he wouldn't play.

It’s not out of the ordinary what grannies could mean to a lot of persons. Those whose life were built around them and are used to taking their calls. It’s better he be out than have another emotionally imbalanced player on the pitch. You wouldn’t find the quality you seek from a mourning player.

It could also be dependent on close they and whether it's paternal or maternal, because at least from this part of the world most people tend to be closer to their maternal side of the family and we only get to hear it when some for dies from the paternal side, sometimes even very late.

Given how significant Haaland is to both the EPL and FPL, I'm very sure there would have been some major updates about him likely to be away from the team for personal reason and whatnot.

But regardless, I was already thinking whether or not to use my Triple Captain chip yet, perhaps this is a significant sign.
