    I still don’t get the scoring and all…Kane is my VC and scores a goal but that’s only 6 points?

    Get Points for = Goals + Assists + Clean Sheets + Bonus Points (basically game involvement)

    All, except bonus points, are scored higher for Defense --> Midfield --> Forwards

    Only Mids and Defs get Clean Sheet points

    thats basically it

    every week, Captaincy pick is crucial. And who your 1st off bench is, esp when someone tests covid+. I would fuck mine up practically every week last season.

    thats why an Ngolo Kante type may be one of the best players in the world...but a terrible FPL asset. No scoring involvement.

    So starting 3 forwards is not the way to go?

    template is 2, and overwhelmingly Jesus + Haaland. Then most are picking an 8.0 Midfielder too when going that route.

    some are trying to go to 3 Strikers which used to be the consensus lineup back in the day. Most are waiting to see what Darwin does tomorrow. Callum Wilson, Mitrovic, etc. If you go 3 up top...then youre settling on 5.5 mids which is risky without many data points on a Brendan Aaronson or Eze or Neto, etc. I got burned by Leon Bailey.

    Value pricing is with Defenders and GKs. You can come up with a 5-3-2 lineup or 4-4-2 where you just set-and-forget (regardless of opponent) your Keeper and Defense. Once youve locked in that portion of your team plus Salah, you figure out the rest.

    At 9:30pm est every night player prices rise and fall like the stock market based on transactions made.

    you get 1 transfer each week, anything more than that is -4 points. you can only carry over max 1 extra unused transfer.

    you get 1st wildcard that you have to use before gameweek 16, which affords you unlimited transfers

    then everything pauses for worldcup, rare exception this year is during that break you get more unlimited transfers.

    then in 2nd semester you get 2nd wildcard. Which we can discuss strategy on how to utilize that after boxing day.

    Elite FWDs carry a small tax IMO and their goals count 20% less than MDs.

    With that said, I have 3 FWDs now, Kane, Vardy and Jesus.

    I'll be dropping Kane or Vardy asap unless crazy returns in GW3-4ish.

    preseason, I definitely did not see this kind of selection issue re: Darwin/Jota/Diaz and to a lesser extent Bobby Chompers.

    Jesus might hit 90% ownership. Martinelli going to go up £1.5 mil during the season lol.

    I just picked up Martinelli this morning. Can’t wait to drop Gordon next week. I will not finish last. That is my goal.

    Feel like it’ll be chasing points, but that goal and his price point probably make Rodrigo essential.

    Spent 4 points on an extra move to create room to bring in Haaland :feelsgoodman: but captained Salah who apparently just watched that drubbing :feelsbadman:

    pretty much me every week of every season.

    didnt think it could get worse than triple captaining Leroy Sane in a double gameweek, to only see him play 30 minutes due to Pep's bs....but then we all just witnessed Salah get no returns in a 9-0 win.

    Lot of folks captained Dennis last year for his dgw where he red carded early in the first match. Mane had a brutal dgw triple captaincy a few years back too. This is why I’m wary of the threemium template. Much easier when trying to decide between two premiums with the odd TAA/Jesus captaincy when fixtures turn.

    I think it’s more likely Haaland rests this weekend with UCL and Spurs next week, but you never know with Pep. Switched it to him from Mo at the last minute.
