Matty Cash price Riser alert! Get him tonight as soon as you can.

What kind of boglehead is still buying Cash when he is 5m?  Huh

Sure, he plays in an advanced position, but if you bought him after GW4, which is when is price really started to go up, you did not get much of a return from him. In fact, only a handful of points more than 4.7 Digne (not that I recommend buying him either, as he's one YC away from an automatic ban).

White, Saliba, Ruben Dias, and almost all starting Newcastle defenders are better than Cash at this price range.

Matty Cash is still a great deal at his current price of £5.0m. Not only is he the only £5.0m DEF in the top five highest points from a defender this season, but he's also a profitable asset. Since I got Matty Cash, I've made £1.0m, and he's expected to increase to £5.1m in a short time. By the way, I do not purchase players based on their team or cost, but rather on the match difficulty level. At the moment he's better than Saliba and White IMO.

The four DEF you mentioned are far more expensive than Matty Cash and their streak of games isn't that good.

When it comes to Arsenal's defenders, I have White from the start and he's been great for me so far.

Saliba and White
Arsenal currently have one of the best defense in the premier league, and at the center of that is Saliba and Gabriel. White has also been good, but with Partey back, we may see Arteta starting Partey in Right back ahead of White, so he can have Declan Rice and him in one game, like he was doing when the season just started. So I suspect White may soon be having lesser playing time.

No, Arteta has always preferred Ben White and Saliba over Gabriel. Since the season's beginning, White and Saliba have held the 5 and 6 positions while Partey has played at the Right back position. I had Gabriel at the beginning of the season but had to sell him off due to a lack of playing time since Arteta prefers the Partey, White, and Saliba set up. As soon as Partey is back, Gabriel will go back to the bench.

Like Igebotz said Porro and Trippier are great choices but their fixtures aren't so good any more. Matty cash is great but he has already risen 0.7M which is a lot. I would argue that time to buy all 3 of them were a month ago. Can't really say a bad word about them other than that since I have all 3 Smiley

Estupian, who I had from the start of the league until he got injured will return next month and might even start games in the latter stages. I'll get him back once he starts working on his match fitness.

You're right about Matty Cash and Pedro Porro, but I'm fortunate to have bought Cash at the beginning of the season for, I'd think, £4.0m and Pedro Porro before his price increased. What is the name of your squad, buwatress? Lol

Trippier costs a lot. He is worth it, yeah, but I feel like Porro is a better choice at the moment.
I went with Coufal though, saves some money and is a starter in a team that has only 1 game plan - send the ball wide and cross it into the box.

Hello fellas, it's your resident "don't worry about this guy in FPL" guy.

nelson some weeks back was insistent that Darwin gets more starting time and despite more wincing in his last game (missing sitter and inadvertent assist) at least he's still the most lethal contributor vs game time. I say this more with faith than with certainty, of course.

I'm also doing my final Brighton purge. Estupinan red-carded anyway helps me, but of course I still hope they get a result from City. Any advice for a defender? From Chelski maybe who's not James? Or is Arsenal bad timing?
Why Brighton purging? Yeah this it is terrible fixture for them but they will soon get much better fixtures. I am looking at buying Mitoma soon and maybe getting back Estupinan if he shakes of his health troubles. Maybe even taking a punt on Lamptey if he does not.

Arsenal defender is actually great choice, I don't have any but I plan to get at least one soon. Problem is which one, if Gabriel is nailed he is the best one for sure but now that Partey is back we could again see some shenanigans from Arteta.

Like Igebotz said Porro and Trippier are great choices but their fixtures aren't so good any more. Matty cash is great but he has already risen 0.7M which is a lot.

For the time being, avoid Chelsea defence at all costs; our current streak of games is not favourable. I would also suggest avoiding Arsenal defence until after GW 11. Right now, Pedro Perro, Matty Cash, and Trippier are my top defensive picks this week. But it's incredibly challenging to persuade someone who thinks Nunez is superior to Halaand.

Trofo and Icopress are out of our league. Last season, I tried to catch those two skanks, but the closer I got, the wider the gap, so I kept chasing shadows. I haven't won a single GW freebet in around 8 weeks, which is crazy because I was already on two freebets at this point last season.

What were the top 5 (or 10) last season? Where can I find it?
Now that I'm playing, I'm interested to see who performed well last year and with how many points did it end.

I kinda remember Trofo telling me he was not that good last year Grin

1.Morvile7z 2.Trofo 3. Icopress 4. Can't remember 5. Igebotz.

These were the top 5 teams from the previous season, and Morvile7z was the only one to hold onto the top spot for the entire season. I don't recall the exact distance between I and trofo, but it wasn't more than 50.

This is the probably closest you can find here on the forum:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62322422

If I remember right, morvile7z was leader whole season, I was second in the end with icopress maybe third?

I had terrible start to the season, I was about 5M after first few rounds, 2M till the world cup and then started my resurgence and finished strong. No way to catch leader but enough to get nice price.

Damn, I felt that we'll have more than 5 winning spots. But then again - that's why the prizes are so attractive.

I'd like to finish the season where I currently am, but considering I'm new in Fantasy I made a lot of mistakes I won't make in the rest of the season. Maybe I can even challenge Trofo at the top.

Darxiaomi: Now is the best time because Halaand is in a fallen state.

I personally think that even a normal GW can top 107 points with ease since the season is still very young.
But I agree with Trofo the most points will surely made during a double GW.

Still feels nice to be currently 2nd  Cheesy it's my first ever FPL season which means that I will most likely drop out of contention soon.

I want to select a magnificent triple captain so i can cut all the gap between me and the leaders. But in the last round my selection of captain was very poor i put Son as a captain and took the captain out from Salah, very bad move in alst round for me.
You would do better picking players who will haul. Triple captain can only be used once. Whereas someone like Trippier will keep hauling over and over again.

*Best overall GW will be proclaimed by me, following all standard FPL practices, chips are counted, extra transfers are worth -4, etc...
so far the person to beat is goodpunt with 107 points score from GW6.

But what happens if two people tie for the same number of GW points? (In GW4 I also got 107 points.)
You are right, I missed you since my software used tie breakers for that as well. Forgot to write before because i never needed it in the past Smiley

Tie breaker is overall rank at the end of season and goodpunt is above you at the moment. It is made that way to offset the enormous advantage people with nothing to play for have in double game weeks to pick up this award. Odds are neither of you will get that reward, it will go to someone wild carding just before biggest double GW and then pulling bench boost or triple captain chip in that double. If I were betting man and I am, i would give odds @1.10 for that kind of scenario to happen. But it is also legit strategy and one that can keep more people playing even when they don't have a chance for top 5 placement.

Notes:
*above rewards come out to 173 mBTC, which leaves almost 1mBTC for tx costs, everything that remains will be added to 1st place award or taken from it in case mempool is totally over spilling at the time competition finishes.
*there is no sharing of prices, we will use official tie breakers implemented by official FPL page, in other words, ranking from the game itself
*Best overall GW will be proclaimed by me, following all standard FPL practices, chips are counted, extra transfers are worth -4, etc...
so far the person to beat is goodpunt with 107 points score from GW6.

I think that covers it all, and we are set until PL finishes. These rewards could be worth so much more by the time they get distributed. Good luck and most importantly have fun Smiley
