With Gvardiol and Doku both dropping in price, decided to wildcard as well. My team will look a lot better now, and I already have 3 transfers stacked up so can make changes again.

Not really happy with my start so far, could have been worse though. It's still early days.

Quite a huge difference between the 1st spot and the others, let's see who gets lucky this season. Trofo didn't really start well Grin

No Rodri news update here? Man is out for the rest of the season; more games for Kovacic and John Stones.

Stones? Don't think so. While Rodri was missing on season start Lewis was the one covering so I am thinking he gets the minutes boost which could be very nice as long as we are ok with some early subs and occasional benching.

It's really a tough news honestly, and an awful blow both to City and the midfielder who had a great season capped with an impressive summer, I guess no one said anything about Rodri because he's not the most appealing midfielder to own in the FPL.

I initially thought Rodri was faking it after he had fell to the ground, but it became rather worrying when he was leaving the pitch, I'm going to be following how Guardiola would handle the situation, If Stones would be back into the line up then I'll also consider him into my squad from a defender stand point, but I'll not be having Kovacic simply because he doesn't offer a lot offensively.

Hey guys, we have a final number of players now ...

Thanks for the update.

I've been saved 2 GWs in a row now by Gabriel.

Gabriel's figures for goals scored with head from corner kicks are frightening. Good defensive option to have, IMO, since there is always the threat of him scoring. Many people will wildcard to him with the easy fixtures we have.

No Rodri news update here? Man is out for the rest of the season; more games for Kovacic and John Stones.

Thanks for the update Trofo!

As expected I'm falling down the ranks and settling around where I should be expected to for the season haha. If I have to concede, I've been saved 2 GWs in a row now by Gabriel. Last one, because he was in my squad. This one, because Pedro didn't play and he got subbed in (phew). 7 points from a def is a great return IMO, never mind Arsenal conceded two. Had the 2-1 score stood, he probably might have had a bonus point or two (for winning goal).

I've set a reminder so I don't forget to change my team (already made 2 urgent transfers out). International break really squeezed my guys out of contention, is a WC ripe for me very soon or should I just stick to banking free transfers? Asking for me.

Well people in charge of Fantasy game are not so smart, we all see Haaland is making the game not so fun and when he have a not good game what they do? They give him 3 points from bonus!!!!. For doing what? IF youa re gonna give him a point of bonus it has to be 1 or as much 2, i have him now, but still ridiculous.

Hey guys, [...]

Thanks for the update. I've added the prize information to the OP.

Good, now I just have to figure out how to climb 10 places on the leaderboard

I was expecting to have a much better second season, and while that is mostly true, it seems that a lot of you are having even better, 75-point weeks on average that makes it hard to climb ranks (and fall in rank too).

Don't worry too much about it. I've picked Carvalho as my starter for the next 2 weeks. I'm pretty sure he won't start (though I still expect my defensemen to score more points than yours... Greaves, Davis, Ramsdale). Roll Eyes

As usual, there is no sharing of the prices we will use official tie breakers from fantasy page. All tx fees will be covered by first place since that is the biggest award

Hey guys, we have a final number of players now - 28, which gives us 56 mBTC. Add to that generous sponsorship from Rollbit - 100 mBTC and we have a total of 156 mBTC for rewards.
If someone checks the OP, we screwed the math there a bit. Those percentages end up on 102% so I shaved a bit from most rewards in a way to get round numbers.

Final rewards for season 2024-2025 will be as follows:

Code:

🥇 1st place - 58 mBTC
🥈 2rd place - 19 mBTC 
🥉 3rd place - 15,5 mBTC
🏅 4th place - 14 mBTC 
🏅 5th place - 12,5 mBTC 
🏅 6th place - 11 mBTC 
🏅 7th place - 8 m BTC 
🏅 Best overall GW - 8 mBTC

I'm sure a couple of drama would still unfold here.

Proud of Arsenal and how compact we remained under pressure. It was just a bit disappointing at the end that we could not get the outcome we wanted, but it could have been worse.

The officials ruined the game with that red card; it may have been justified, but the inconsistency is what is annoying because Doku kicked the ball away too in the first half and never got a card for it.

Arsenal sent a clear message today that we are still in the race to win the Premier League this season, our third attempt!

I got an Arsenal attack and another player who will be playing for 2 weeks in a row in the main squad of my team, despite the fact that I only own 1% (rotation with Vardy in GW6, and with ESR GW7).

Sancho?

Was considering him but told myself - no Chelsea assets other than Palmer when I can afford him.

________________________

Sitting on 3 transfers and already having decent options for a mini Wildcard. Don't like how my team currently looks like, but am hurt by that -0.4 mil I lost on Quansah.

To be honest, seems like such a heavy penalty. Only 10% people or so had him, he lost -0.1 in value the first week and remained at ~3% selection. He's now selected by 1.7% of people and lost -0.3 in value in short period of time.

Looks totally unrealistic but it is what it is I guess.

Btw, I already sold J'Pedro and Eze.

Don't you guys think it's a bit too early to sell JP? I mean, unless he's going to be benched from now on, he can't be that bad.

Another frustrating gameweek for many I suppose, differentials we're finally scoring but most of us are still in the same league positions as last week.

I also got rid of J. Pedro and Jota. Wouldn't have enough money for Mbuemo if it was Eze. Still thinking weather to WC this week or not. So far on -4 with high probability of pulling the trigger and renewing my squad.

This week GW winner is Hhampuz with probably* 89 points. Barnes and Jackson coming in clutch for him. Those 2 aren't in many teams.

*This season FPL has a habit of tinkering with bonus points late into the evening and all GW winners are official day after the games finish. When situation is clear like here when hhampuz should have 9 points gap I will proclaim them immediately and when it is very close I will wait for official results.

It's very funny how many twists have happened just in the first half alone, from Man City being really close to have 2-3 goal lead, to Rodri getting injured and the momentum instantly shifted in Arsenal favor, now it's back to Man City's with Arsenal down to 10 men and would play the final 45 minutes as such.

I'm sure a couple of drama would still unfold here.

I've seen many games where the game was fiery but then after one of the teams was sent off they closed down and there were no more goals scored, I hope this is exactly the kind of game Grin

I think Simeone/Mourinho would have easily hold the score in such a situation. Let's see what tactics Arteta chooses, he was lucky that it happened right before the break and he can completely rebuild the game in normal mode, and not try to shout his ideas from the edge of the field.

P.S. My easiest bet on Haaland paid off Cool

Rogers finally paying some dividends too, I guess it was just a matter of time with him.

When is he going to score? I like him and how effective a player he is, but I think he is not someone who scores a lot; he will rather create an assist than score.

He doesn't look like a natural scorer to me. He always looks a bit rushed with the final touch. He gets into good chances and then snatches at them which results with poor shots.

But he is very cheap, plays all the minutes for good team and has good fixtures. Though to remove him from my squad even on WC. Goals will come, just don't expect same level of finishing like from the best in the business.

I believe his goals will come in due time, he might not be the one to score 2-3 goals every fortnight but I do believe he’ll get a decent number by the end of this season and going by his price, he’s a must have.

Verbruggen just conceded a penalty; it cannot be the only goal he will concede. Wood is really looking good for this game with how Forest have started the game. I predict Wood will find the goal more the one goal he has already from the penalty spot.

It was a really naive and clumsy challenge from Baleba, while the decision seem to have been quite a soft one and VAR wouldn’t overturn due it being a rather debatable one for either decision.

Forest are very fast on the break and looking threatening with their counter attack, asides that they game seem really even so far.
