    Pretty shit if that’s the case. Head to head would work much better in a draft league.

    I see someone in the main game triple captained Luke Shaw. I know there is probably a quantum explanation for that (4.5m players allows for all possible eventualities) but seriously? Must have been seething their tits off when that late Vardy goal went in.

    Could we do another league (could do it with the same players) and make it head to head?

    Andre Gomes didn't play so Jimenez will come in for 6 and if Kompany doesn't come off the bench Pereira will come in with 4.

    Bikassa was 3rd position on my bench or I'd be looking at the same thing.

    Had Obi Wan-Bissaka first sub but he never got on.

    Richarlison, Mendy and Mane all smashed it and Salah for 8x2.

    My draft team was the only good thing for me this weekend. If only De Bruyne hadn't played. I'd be top of the table.

    On the main game I had a shit week. Like everyone I had Wan-Bissaka on the bench. Only real grievance I had player wise this weekend was my last minute change from Neves to Ralls.

    Decent start. 81pts.

    I knew I shouldn't have picked Keita... Great game, but only 3pts. Seems to be a slightly undervalued position in FF.

    59 for me, largely thanks to the scouse contingent. Think it's the first time I've ever scored above global average in week 1.

    Yeah he is, like all midfielders who don't just get loads of goals/assists. I agree with what Andy said a while ago, that it's fine because it keeps the game simple, and you just ignore that type of player for the most part.

    I tried the Bundesliga fantasy game a while ago and it's stupidly convoluted. Iirc you get points for duels won, second assists and shit like that. I was enough of a saddo to make an account, but not that sad ffs.

    19k total. 51st in all of Switzerland.

    Top of the league and I had Serri come off the bench instead of Wan-Bissaka.

    Every Fantasy game where they've tried to make DMs worthwhile has been piss.

    The only other way I can think of doing it is having a 'DM' position separately who gets clean sheet points like a defender and attacking points like a midfielder.

    Normally it's never a good idea to do early transfer based off the first round, but I'm trading out Jota for Neves, simply because Neves is cheaper and will go up at least 0.1 or maybe 0.2 in value this week.

    I left Neves sitting on the bench. At least Christian Eriksen scored me a nice healthy 2 points.

    Pretty poor week to start for me, 42 points.

    Wan-Bissaka on the bench, and my Fulham bias meant I went for Cairney instead of Neves as my £5m midfielder.

    De Bruyne coming on and getting booked was annoying. Might have got Neves' points but then Sane trots on to waste 5 mins. A very meh 60 points.

    At this point if they did it it would invariably screw up multiple seasons because they wouldn't be able to figure out pricing for DM's properly, and so everyone would end up figuring out that you can score masses of points by having 6M DM's in your midfield. A bit like the year Leicester won and everyone ended up with the exact same team because all the top scorers were like 7m and 8m.

    May as well try it. Salah, Hazard etc getting the same one point bonus for a clean sheet as Matic or Dier is stupid.

    Look I didn't go for Salah and now I'm top of the league so all your tips should come from me. I reccomend a backline of West Ham and Arsenal defenders.

    Yeah this is kind of true.

    But also, it's sort of what keeps the game a bit fun, finding value in players being a bit out of position. Salah and Hazard are borderline forwards classified as midfielders. Now that half the teams are playing with wingbacks, they are almost like old school wingers but not quite - etc.

    And it doesn't exactly make sense a lot of the time, but the game is fun, everyone knows how to play, and I could easily see changes screwing it up a bit.

    That said, I sort of agree. I keep feeling annoyed that some of the most important players in the league (read: Kante) isn't really valued at all in a game like this.

    I was considering doing this exact thing and came here for advice.

    I also was thinking of dropping GroS from BHA for Neves.... and/or maybe Mendy for Azpilicueta.

    Any thoughts gents?

    Neves in for Milivojevic. Really undecided on the captaincy front between Salah, Firmino (current choice), Sanchez or possibly even Robertson.

    Oh it's a 9*4, double home-and-away.

    I bet 11*3 + 3 will be more fun

    Why are people taking 4 point hits so early?

    Mahow's is basically betting on Neves scoring this weekend and his record is hardly great.

    Because that was going to be my only change until De Bruyne got injured.

    Took the point hit so I didn't get hit by the price drop.

    Paid for making an early transfer.

    Considering his previous pick was Andre Gomes he could have picked 95% of the field and still made a slightly correct decision.
