ATL Madrid are gettin thumped!!!
Anyone else looking at Snoddy?
Sorry mate, I’m into girls.
I am a girl 😉
Than it’s even better if you’re into girls. 😉
Prove it
Why B? That’s not cool. Forcing someone to say shit, or show shit. Whatever. Hope you’re joking, mate.
Anyway, who cares what someone is anyway? Everybody is indifferent, typing from behind a screen, their phone, their tablet.
Okay so we are now seeing a feminist/humanitarian Raz?
Nice.
Red arrows are affecting your personality man.
Not really. Also, don’t get the personality shit. This is the net, not reality. I act like a clown most of the times, rarely ever serious. In real life you wouldn’t know my personality.
Anyway, we started off at the wrong foot and it seems we are still going at it. It’s a game. I’m not doing black magic on you and usually I’m just taking a piss if I’m messing with ya. Also, our Oscar/Hazard quarrels can go a bit too far. It can be funny. But maybe we should quit that. This is not healthy mate. Let’s be nice. YMCA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :red-flag:
Ps. on the chick asking thing. I think it’s really rude asking someone to prove what he/she is. That’s just me though. Could also be a cultural thing, I don’t know. 😉
So now we are taking Hazard/Oscar quarrel to the next level by bringing in cultural differences?
Game on! :hippo:
B, in all honesty I don’t feel like quarreling anymore. For real. Unsure if you were taking a piss (since it’s the net) but the cultural thing wasn’t meant to quarrel. This shit is getting confusing.
With cultural differences I mean I come from the Netherlands and you come from Pakistan? I respect everybody and don’t care where someone is from. But what could be an insult to you could be a mere greeting in my country (and the other way around). Lot of miscommunication that way.
I know certain people come online to quarrel but I’m not one of them. Don’t think you are either. So can we stop the bashing eachother when one or the other is doing bad? Or whatever? For real. Don’t know any other way to ask this. English isn’t my first language, I actually suck at it. You get what I mean though? Other people get my point? Is there a point. FFS, I’m lost.
Norwich’s next 6GWs are quite decent.
+1
yeah, thats what I’m thinking as well.
Current plan is as follows…
This week:
Skrtel—>Terry
Sagna—>Collins
Ozil—>Snoddy
Next week:
Should be able to play a full team!
Collins will only play if Hull loses on Monday, right?
YES. SO don’t be touching that transfer button. I think I told you this B. *points up*
Pvr, i’d get ivanovic instead of Terry
Terry’s goal this week, wan’t his goal.
if you saw the replays he didn’t acually touch the ball
ivan had 2 goals, an assist and 9 bonus points and 4 cleanies in his last 5 games
He’ll get all the cleansheet points of Terry and attacking returns too.
plus he’s 0.1 cheaper!
and i think adam is better value than snoddy for the next two weeks myself.
plus (again!) he’s 0.1. cheaper!
Already got Ivan…. and money isn’t a problem for me right now. But yeah, I think Chelsea players will be the ones to have over the next few weeks, so I may consider having a more attacking player, like Eto’o or Torres.
ah okay i see!
a cheaky punt on torres or eto’o could work out well but ir does seem pretty risky witht their records this season!
PvR – No chance, i think he’s pretty poor value at 5.9, 66 points in total and a set of strikers who cant score would suggest that Snodgrass is a dodgy one to say the least.
That does make sense NIN. Norwich is very shy at scoring goals, the best additional points Snoddy offers at most occassions will be the 1 CS points, but with limited midfielders in coming 2GWs, one might even take a gamble on him.
The B – He gets the odd good score, he’s been poor all season and Norwich don’t score many goals, at just under 6m this screams of a bum deal to me.
Thanks NIN, what would your advice be then?
PvR – Davis from Southampton would be a better shout in my opinion, if Hull get dumped out tomorrow then Livermore would be my shout, Hull have good games provided they don’t get a blank in GW29.
What about Adam?
Did everyone not read that article? 😉
Thanks mate, much appreciated.
It makes sense, just remember money is not an issue here. I’m not particularly looking at value for money, I’m just looking at who I think will score the most over the next few weeks. But yep, I think both Davies and Livermore are probably better options at this stage….
Not for me 2bob haha.
PvR – Same here mate, i’d trust Davis and Livermore more than i’d trust Snodgrass, the fact both are cheaper is an added bonus!!
So back to the original question: Kolarov for Azpi or Cahill?
M&B – Cahill, attacking threat and bonus point advantage.
Chelsea has Spurs and Arsenal in next 4GWs, so CS potential is not that high to be honest. You might as well buy Cahill/Terry to feel secure while playing them because they are a goal threat.
Pick Azpi if you are into budget defence like me, who only pick defenders for CS potential and nothing else.
yeah The B been thinking of budget.. I’ve got Collins/Chester for cheapies.. the Baines will be the next cheapie..
Chelsea cleanie is actually higher in big games! Mourinho has his tactics spot on! Chelsea defensive coverage is becoming something of a necessity I think..I am even considering on doubling up! Would go for Cahill since he is cheaper than Ivan. But Ivan if you can afford it!
I made the transfer for Cahill. I thought about Ivan, but thought I’d save the 0.5/0.6 for my other transfer..
One more FT and 1.3 in the bank, now I have to get either Gnabry, Eriksen, or Dzeko out.
Dzeko first priority maybe since he for sure won’t play in next 2 and may not even play after that. The two others have an outside chance of playing next match. Dzeko to Ade perhaps?
Cahill get more BPS
Hey chaps…
FYI
Ref “bonus points” on the new Ultimate FPL .
Under frequently asked questions.
Player data:
When is the game updated?
“Player points are updated as the matches take place, whilst team points and league tables are usually updated 2 hours after the final whistle in the last game of the day.
Bonus points will be awarded on the Monday morning after the weekend matches are played. Any matches played on a weekday night will be awarded on the following morning.”
My 3 theories for these “bonus points” are
1/ an error
2/ could they be talking about the extra points players already get ie….c.b.i / key passes etc /
Maybe they were meant to be updated on Mondays / next day, but decided to add straight away..?
3/ more bonus points we’re unawhere of..?
Have I missed something ….?
Thoughts..!
I’m actually starting to think that selling Suarez for Aguero once he’s back might be the easiest and best way to bring Sergio back in without making too many sacrifices elsewhere. Suarez has almost slipped into a Rooney-esque role where he’s out wide and tracking back really deep to help out all the time and build up the play from the back.
Sturridge and even Sterling have looked the most likely to score and have played the furthest up field the past few weeks. All the top players in my mini league have Suarez (but not Sturridge), and I DO have Sturridge, so I’m seriously considering dropping Luis for Aguero when he’s back fit.
Does that sound like a reckless move? It feels scary to even think about doing that given Suarez’s form earlier in the season, but his new role in the team seems to have really dampened his offensive threat quite a bit.
That sounds like a good move. But earlier in the season i tried going with Sturridge and didnt have Suarez, and it hurt me a lot.
I have not been watching Liverpool’s games lately, but i still think that every game its a 50/50 chances of either player outscoring the other.
Im too afraid to go that lane given the fact that Suarez takes quite a lot of shots each games.
Sturridge is definitely playing the highest up and his positioning, along with his selfishness with the ball, are meaning he has many more scoring chances. Suarez seems much more apt to get the ball and play others in, while Sturridge is looking to take players on and shoot, even when a pass would be a better option.
That selfishness is good to a point- especially if he’s in your fantasy team, but you can see how much it frustrates his teammates (Suarez especially) when he doesn’t take the option to pass the ball.
Anyway, if it keeps on like this I think dropping Suarez for Aguero could be a very good move. Of course it could backfire and totally destroy my season, but that’s what makes it fun I suppose! Ha.
How did you end up doing this week B? I ended up with 60 points even after Vlaar lost me 7 at the death and I captained Suarez over Sturridge (again). All in all not too bad I guess.
Did just okay Red with 58 points.
Same here, captained Suarez over Sturridge. The only thing going for me this GW was playing Olsson over Coleman.
i definately understand what you mean and iwas considering that myself, but suarez really could explode at anytime and what i feel is that soon, he’ll be pushed into the middle role and sturridge will be pushed out wide.
the thing is, that everyone has him, so if he scores, you’re sort-of on a -6 already.
he still is geting point, but only 5 every week rarther than 11.
but, that being said, it is for aguero, and aguero is amazing!
seems city really do miss their front man alot.
he’s always in the goals and when he’s in form he is a must have definately.
what im saying, is suarez definately isn’t in form by his standards, but isn’t doing terribly really, just not amazing. I think you do need aguero, but i’m personally going to keep suarez, even purely for potencial.
Hmmm, I’m not so sure that he and Sturridge will swap roles and change things up too much billis. What they’re doing seems to be working very well and creating tons of chances- it’s just that Sturridge is on the end of most of them!
I don’t think Sturridge would be as effective playing the role that Suarez is playing now, as I don’t think he’s as willing to hustle back and help out, and I certainly don’t think he’s as willing to play others in from further back or out wide for the good of the team (at the expense oh his own goal tally).
yeah he’s better through the middle too…
This formation certainly is workig but i wonder why they dont try out putting suarez and sturridge together through the middle like they used to. i guess it’s because of sterling’s form…
i totally see your points though, and i sort of have to agree, sturridge would be a terrible winger – i just liked his runs from the outside – like his assist today.
Nice cheeky bonus point from Williamson, happy. 71 points and should have green arrows when the leagues update. I did worse on UFPL, which is actually rather funny, I took a captain punt on Adebayor, haha.
Anyway, Toure’s out now and I’ve got Nolan in, which I’m sure many will have chosen. Next week I’ll probably be benching Suarez and Sturridge, and then seeing how many players don’t play, and if I think it’s worth it, I’ll take a hit to field 11. We’ll see.
What if Hull wins? You” have another player blanking then.
If I can only field 7 or something ridiculous, I have a wildcard to use.
To be honest TJ, i dont see Hull losing on Monday.
So there is a 80% chance that Nolan wont play in GW29.
