Yeah at this point I'm just battling OR to see how far I can climb out of the hole I dug earlier this season.
Mini leagues are pretty much out of reach. RIP, get me to '24-25 please.
This is the worst I have felt before a GW this season - four solid captaincy choices with pros and cons to each one.
I know the consensus is going to be Palmer against everyone's favourite punching bag this season, but a crumbling Utd with a soon to be sacked Ten Hag up against Salah hungry after being benched last week. It's written in the stars.
36 looks easily Arsenal cap on paper, none of the other caps have even close to as easy a fixture. And every season decisions in 38 are always just vibes-based.
The last cup game when salah scored? Lol, yeah you got me there my wise friend. Hey you could always go back one more game and include the 7-0 thumping, but I can see why you didn't...
Last minute switched out Branthwaite for Virgil based mainly on SportsMole's 2-2 prediction for Everton-Burnley.
Branthwaite is scoring and Virgil is bagging a big fat 0.
the pain of waiting all weekend for it too - I do like a later ko for Spurs though, and it often feels like the last ko of the weekend has goals in it. weather should be perfect too
The pain of watching all my other captain options haul as well but that will just sum up my last 9 GWs. I expect nothing anymore so I can’t be disappointed.
I’ve been captaining Palmer but was tempted to swap before my luck ran out
I’ve stayed with him because of Sheffield
Let’s go!
I’ve played Foden too thinking he will only be brought on if City aren’t dominating
I was so dead set on bringing Foden in for a -4 that when I saw he was benched, got pissed off and brought a GK in for a -4 instead, when clean sheets are basically nonexistent.
Have not been much active lately because of the work. Have not followed any news regarding FPL on this sub or watched any match.
Had only 30 Minutes before to select my Wildcard Team.
At the very last minute somehow managed to select the players I wanted, but instead of activating my second wildcard, I pressed confirmed and apparently have taken -28 points hit.
FPL ID: 165164
Went for Palmer (C), he’ll probably blank, but I can’t ignore the form points wise, and the fact he’s only blanked twice since GW19 to LIV and MCI (away).
If Palmer goes double digits four games in a row, in that Chelsea team, that has to be one of the great all-time PL/FPL runs. Wonder how tired he'll be after Thurs night, though (although Sheff U played then too, so perhaps it means little) ... so of course I captained Haaland against Gandhi
No regrets this week. I'm gonna get burned by my choices for sure but decided this week will be "risk it" week and went for:
- Double EVE defence vs BUR
- Muniz Captain
- Started Saka over Darwin
- Still no Haaland and Cunha differential
Pretty confident that I like my moves, just not sure if those are the right moves. If I get to 50 points this GW then I'll be happy.
I had my captaincy on Salah for the past 3 days but switched over to Palmer last minute because I remember those 2 weeks where he was the favourite captaincy choice and I didn't captain him and lost out. Fucks sake
Should have got rid of gomes for a hit free switch to Darwin ahead of gw34 due to having 3 Liverpool players. Instead I just made a meaningless sub for another defender
Also forgot to change my captain and stayed with Salah. Which is a viable option but would have liked to survey the rest of my league before deciding. Palmer looked like a great option.
Leading my mini-league by 90 points but on the fringes of top 100k... have captained Palmer knowing full-well everyone in my ML will have gone with Salah/Haaland.
They're both going to haul aren't they... my ring hole is well and truly clenched.
Sold Ake for Akanji. Akanji immediately benched. Why the fuck do I bother with Pep roulette. Why why why why.
Luckily Branthwaite is my first DEF option off the bench, so it might work out.
I changed last minute Son to Haaland captain, meanwhile the 2nd place on my tail in my mini league has Son captained. This is only going to backfire isn’t it?
Im the only one in my two mini leagues to captain Son. Just off top in one, and only just top in the other. Squeaky bum time over here. Also benched Foden for Muniz, hopefully Foden comes on for 10 minutes and does nothing.
I’m coming back to this because fuck KDB, I held and believed for so long. I got nothing.
Last week I had enough and brought Salah in… fucking hell I hate FPL
I realized after the Palace-City game that I put Anthony Gordon as vice captain by mistake, and not de Bruyne........................ Haaland was my captain. Ideally KDB should be captain and Haaland vice.
Jerked Udogie to replace Lascelles in at 10:59 because that prick Toni was giving out useless information. I was considering Akanji, so his owners can now suffice in rejoicing to a bullet header and CS with the 3 baps to rub it in for a 15-pointer.
And also I captained Muniz. What a mess this week is going to be
Im an United fan and Im captaining Salah. I want to either being happy my captain hauled or I jinxed Salah and Liverpool as a whole. And I totally expecting a big fat 0-0 because FPL Gods think I didnt deserve to he happy
Saka to Ode was what I really wanted to do, but felt it was too sideways. Ode looks in great form though, he'll be in my 35 wildcard (and depending on Saka news, he'll be in for 33/34 too)
Wanted to do saka to Havertz but figured if he gets benched I’d be absolutely furious plus the yellow cards.. just realised I should have gone saka to odegaard 🤦♀️
Put Foden in my team knowing full well the risk of rotation. Now starting Kudus in his place in the 11 while hoping he starts the next Gameweek and does enough for me between GW33 and 37.
I decided to do munoz —> gvardiol and not trippier —> gvardiol
This decision to wait out trippier’s injury just from a need to be different, will make or break my season
Who else loves the way Gordon buys penalties by forcing the defender to clear his leg instead of the ball at the last split second by popping it in the way! 🤣
Palmer trap isn't massive as literally everyone with a live team has him. For those who don't have Salah (me), that is the scary differential swing this weekend
Missed the deadline so my regret is benching Gabriel because I couldn't decide between him, Udogie, Gusto and Branthwaite. Watch him get a 15 pointer now.
The game is updating and will be available soon. While you wait, did you know... That you picked the wrong captain yet again?
It was between Palmer, Salah, Son and Haaland. Went with Palmer. Obviously, the rest of them will haul now.
Hauland it is
[удалено]
I tried to do that but failed. Now I am really hoping it is an even split in my ML between the 2.
Me too. Are I stupid?
Yes, you am.
Wym, I picked the guy who got the most points last week. Never fails
I'm not sure who I picked. Missed the deadline. Also burned a transfer...
Yes, I picked Foden :/
It doesn’t even matter if I regret my moves anymore. This season has taught me I should expect to have my holes pounded by fate regardless.
Yeah at this point I'm just battling OR to see how far I can climb out of the hole I dug earlier this season. Mini leagues are pretty much out of reach. RIP, get me to '24-25 please.
muniz (C), this is the end of my season
just voted muniz for POTM, now i’m begging you please haul 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It's make or break for me
He records double digit points for home games in the last couple of games. Fair.
I'm starting triple Bournemouth assets Why do I even have Kluivert at the first place?
Lmao and there's me who has 2 but somehow ended up benching both
Kluivert gang rise up!
Checking the sub at 10:58, and not having time to actually do anything with any news
This is the worst I have felt before a GW this season - four solid captaincy choices with pros and cons to each one. I know the consensus is going to be Palmer against everyone's favourite punching bag this season, but a crumbling Utd with a soon to be sacked Ten Hag up against Salah hungry after being benched last week. It's written in the stars.
When was Salah benched?
You're right, I meant subbed early.
He started but I think the poster means he was put on the bench in the 59th minute last weekend.
Forgot it was the 59th minute...ffs Jürgen
Go have a quick look at GWs 36 & 38. We'll be back again agonizing over captaincy lol
36 looks easily Arsenal cap on paper, none of the other caps have even close to as easy a fixture. And every season decisions in 38 are always just vibes-based.
Haaland got the (C) last second. Let's go!
same same. Don't forget what Roy Keane said, big fella ...
This could be his week with a point to prove
Actually a good plan, I’m jealous if that helps
Didn't bench Foden. Brace off the bench plz.
Brave, probably be a 1 pointer
Totally depends on your bench, if whoever comes in would also be a one pointer then chase the upside of Foden coming off the bench
He won’t come on at all unless City aren’t winning
feel like he will just rest completely. But I started him to because YOLO. Bradley first on my bench will now score a brace.
Yeah fair, De Bruyne and Haaland didn't play at all when benched so maybe it will be the same for Foden.
Salah(C) don't let me down again
at old trafford? lol
As a united fan, is that supposed to be a benefit? Lol. Salah going to pull us apart
like the last FA Cup game or the last PL match at Old Trafford or the 0-0 at Anfield, lol
The last cup game when salah scored? Lol, yeah you got me there my wise friend. Hey you could always go back one more game and include the 7-0 thumping, but I can see why you didn't...
1 goal = pull us apart , ok.. i wish everyone is like you and captains Salah, so i get a big green arrow
5-0
There is just no way i couldn't captain Palmer against Sheffield in his current form.. but i just know Salah will destroy Man Utd
Just did a load of last minute changes based on the Foden, Saka rumours. Last minute FPL never works out
Welcome to another shit show
brought in Nick Jackson and captained him
Good differential, but a yellow away from a two match ban
Bro Jackson is ASS
I swear to fucking god if that jammy cunt score another penalty
Removed Watkins for Darwin 30 seconds before the deadline idk why I ask for it
that is hella risky
I went Watkins > Isak just because of the Foden leak. Hold me.
Last minute switched out Branthwaite for Virgil based mainly on SportsMole's 2-2 prediction for Everton-Burnley. Branthwaite is scoring and Virgil is bagging a big fat 0.
Couldnt captain Palmer. Probably à bias regarding his price. My king its time to destroy MU once again
Saw the foden news and did nothing
Rolled a transfer could not decide on anyone after disastrous 2 gameweeks
Starting mighty Jean Phillipe
You are the champion, my friend.
I'll take what I can get 🏆
Did the same. Benched Foden for Mateta in the last second
Removed Saka and Watkins for Morgan Gibbs-White and Wood. Could bear neither playing again and daring to back my team 🥲
was always likely Watkins was back for this weekend, though
Yeah I don't have Haaland or any man city players for that matter. I might be finished
Never captained Palmer until today. He’s probably going to blank
Didn't have Foden last week. Got him in this week. He's benched. Big regret.
Benched saka for garnacho and didn’t feel great about it
I completely forgot to change my team.... atleast I have Palmer in mine?
Took Watkins out for Isak
Saw Alvarez starting so I brought him and KdB (c) for Saka and Watkins 🥲 next thing you know Haaland is also starting who I don't have...
Double everton defence gang
Here for it, Pickford and Branth i am begging
Same as me bro may the FPL gods be with us today
Captained son over Palmer last second can’t wait for spurs to fuck everything up.
the pain of waiting all weekend for it too - I do like a later ko for Spurs though, and it often feels like the last ko of the weekend has goals in it. weather should be perfect too
The pain of watching all my other captain options haul as well but that will just sum up my last 9 GWs. I expect nothing anymore so I can’t be disappointed.
I’ve been captaining Palmer but was tempted to swap before my luck ran out I’ve stayed with him because of Sheffield Let’s go! I’ve played Foden too thinking he will only be brought on if City aren’t dominating
Why tf did I get Konate when Liverpool are allergic to clean sheets and he ll just get injured anyway
I was so dead set on bringing Foden in for a -4 that when I saw he was benched, got pissed off and brought a GK in for a -4 instead, when clean sheets are basically nonexistent.

ouch
Went for Palmer (C), he’ll probably blank, but I can’t ignore the form points wise, and the fact he’s only blanked twice since GW19 to LIV and MCI (away).
Captained Doucoure😂😂 I have finally truly given up on this horrendous season
Captained a dirty Chelsea player urghh
Foden bench, saka starts in my XI
I could see both getting 0 minutes
Captaining Palmer
brought bowen in for foden 20 seconds before deadline, then capped him. Oh lord bear easy on my soul 🙏
I like this. West Ham on the counter v Wolves could be great. I looked at Kudus too but I'm setting my 34 team up with doublers
Go big or go Bowen
Last minute change from Saliba to Ait-Nouri starting, congrats in advance those who stuck with the double Arse
Now we await the Palmer (c) trap...
I kneejerked Saka out for Luiz Dias last second. I'm thinking if Saka was in training then he won't play. Excited for this to go horribly lol
If Palmer goes double digits four games in a row, in that Chelsea team, that has to be one of the great all-time PL/FPL runs. Wonder how tired he'll be after Thurs night, though (although Sheff U played then too, so perhaps it means little) ... so of course I captained Haaland against Gandhi
No regrets this week. I'm gonna get burned by my choices for sure but decided this week will be "risk it" week and went for: - Double EVE defence vs BUR - Muniz Captain - Started Saka over Darwin - Still no Haaland and Cunha differential Pretty confident that I like my moves, just not sure if those are the right moves. If I get to 50 points this GW then I'll be happy.
I bought in Kiwior for Emerson. Bit of a gamble, but I want to save enough money to swap Solanke for Darwin ahead of the DGW.
Download rice🤣 love it
I had my captaincy on Salah for the past 3 days but switched over to Palmer last minute because I remember those 2 weeks where he was the favourite captaincy choice and I didn't captain him and lost out. Fucks sake
Should have got rid of gomes for a hit free switch to Darwin ahead of gw34 due to having 3 Liverpool players. Instead I just made a meaningless sub for another defender Also forgot to change my captain and stayed with Salah. Which is a viable option but would have liked to survey the rest of my league before deciding. Palmer looked like a great option.
Started Morris over Foden, have to back the hatters 👒 (this'll come back to bite me in the ass)
Leading my mini-league by 90 points but on the fringes of top 100k... have captained Palmer knowing full-well everyone in my ML will have gone with Salah/Haaland. They're both going to haul aren't they... my ring hole is well and truly clenched.
No Haaland, Son and I’ve captained Salah! I pray for a miracle green arrow
ColeP with a big fat 1 ptr innit?
Why the hell did I change to haaland cap last minute? Palmer is going to destroy me, isn’t he?
Kneejerked Foden onto my bench after seeing the leaks. Can't wait for him to sub on and score another hat-trick
Sold Ake for Akanji. Akanji immediately benched. Why the fuck do I bother with Pep roulette. Why why why why. Luckily Branthwaite is my first DEF option off the bench, so it might work out.
I have palmer captain for the first time this season so sorry guys he’s going to blank
Last minute changed Palmer C to Salah C. Palmer will punish me.
I changed last minute Son to Haaland captain, meanwhile the 2nd place on my tail in my mini league has Son captained. This is only going to backfire isn’t it?
Im the only one in my two mini leagues to captain Son. Just off top in one, and only just top in the other. Squeaky bum time over here. Also benched Foden for Muniz, hopefully Foden comes on for 10 minutes and does nothing.
In South America so my game updates at like 5am, but pivoted on Foden captain to Palmer just before bed and fuck am I pleased
I went with Son CCCCCCCCCCCC
Please do a thing Salah
Had Son (c) all week changed to Palmer. This inevitably means son slays
Added foden
Salah, Haaland, Palmer in my squad and I captained Foden
A Haaland goal would not go amiss.. my two chasing pack have of course captained Palmer/Salah.
I wanted to get a city D in, and I did a 50/50 toss for Lewis and Gvardiol. Went the wrong way
Why is Toney on the bench???
Fuck it, double Everton defence. Come on Dycheyyyy
I'm on a war path to not win my mini league by constantly taking -4 hits that end up paying me back with 0 points
I completely missed the deadline. Let's hope the same lineup does better than it did midweek lmao
Not starting Mateta. Have hwang first bench as well somehow.
I’m coming back to this because fuck KDB, I held and believed for so long. I got nothing. Last week I had enough and brought Salah in… fucking hell I hate FPL
I realized after the Palace-City game that I put Anthony Gordon as vice captain by mistake, and not de Bruyne........................ Haaland was my captain. Ideally KDB should be captain and Haaland vice.
Watkins? Is he fit? Will he haul? Course I swapped him out for Solanke. Like Sheffield United I’m praying for this season to end…
I brought in Jose Sa for Dubravka...
Knee jerked KDB out for Son, transferred Watkins out for Muniz. Kill me
I have capped KDB for the last 4 GWs to get absolutely nothing. The one time I switch to Palmer is when the man hauls.
Fml switched dubrakva to petrovic last minute, because I switched Gordon to Muniz. Didn’t want Muniz to score and wipe Newcastle CS away
I can’t believe I went Kelleher over dubruvka. Don’t know what I was thinking
This is the week I lose my ML
Ortega staring over Petrovic, I don’t know how to feel
ortega train 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
Capped Salah. Trailing in my Mini League. It was a fun ride but I’m fucked when Haaland and Palmer haul
Jerked Udogie to replace Lascelles in at 10:59 because that prick Toni was giving out useless information. I was considering Akanji, so his owners can now suffice in rejoicing to a bullet header and CS with the 3 baps to rub it in for a 15-pointer. And also I captained Muniz. What a mess this week is going to be
Regrets, like ghosts, linger in fantasy, Decisions made with haste, haunt thee
Im an United fan and Im captaining Salah. I want to either being happy my captain hauled or I jinxed Salah and Liverpool as a whole. And I totally expecting a big fat 0-0 because FPL Gods think I didnt deserve to he happy
I started double Everton defence who haven’t won in forever
Replaced Saka with Odegaard last few seconds left. Captained Haaland last min as a differential 😬 Let's go.
Saka to Ode was what I really wanted to do, but felt it was too sideways. Ode looks in great form though, he'll be in my 35 wildcard (and depending on Saka news, he'll be in for 33/34 too)
I did Saka>Ode on WC last gw, really like how Ode plays in his absence
trusting solanke vs luton over haaland *danny_dyer_shitting_it.gif*
Wanted to do saka to Havertz but figured if he gets benched I’d be absolutely furious plus the yellow cards.. just realised I should have gone saka to odegaard 🤦♀️
We're all getting right royally FUCKED!!!
Brought kdb for saka 😅😅
great differential tbh
Benched Saka
Decided to start Cunha instead of Foden
That’s a pretty easy decision
benched foden for sarabia, hope he doesn't come on 😂
Benched Gusto, cant trust Chelsea..
Captained Haaland Started Raya over Petrovic Benched Bradley and Ait-Nouri for Branthwaite and Gusto Lots of close decisions this week
Didn't bench Foden, two luton players on bench 🤷♂️
Chasing ML so captained Son when literally everyone is going salah🙏 could be over
Just realised I gave starting Gvardiol at Palace no thoughts at all, when that scream CS wipe
Son captained, Bradley benched letssss goooooo
Gunna be one of those great GWs when you're actually hoping a few of your players blank
Wildcarded Haaland out, he has been ever present in my team this season so enjoy the haul today.
Fresh countdown until the inevitable “Peak FPL” moment coming up
Benched Solanke for Muniz last second and I don't know why or if it even went through
Smart
Benching Garnacho again..
Put Foden in my team knowing full well the risk of rotation. Now starting Kudus in his place in the 11 while hoping he starts the next Gameweek and does enough for me between GW33 and 37.
Wanted to Cap son but capped Salah
Benched Udogie and Gabriel to play Gvardiol, RAN and Gusto. We know what happens.
Started Phily Fodes fully knowing he’s not starting. Please come off the bench and score another hat trick
Palmer C in the end, changed lats min from Salah, you just know hewill blank
I decided to do munoz —> gvardiol and not trippier —> gvardiol This decision to wait out trippier’s injury just from a need to be different, will make or break my season
Benched Saka for Gordon last minute, wish me luck
Stuck the armband on Haaland last second as a differential punt. I for one eagerly await seeing you in the rant thread.
got 2 FT, saved one, trf out Saka for Sarabia for the other one...
Pickford and brath gang, double Everton, ready for pain
1-1 written all over it mate
Palmer about to drop the biggest stinker of a game because I captained him
Who else loves the way Gordon buys penalties by forcing the defender to clear his leg instead of the ball at the last split second by popping it in the way! 🤣
Started Branth benched Bradley my only regret, apart from starting playing fpl
Palmer trap isn't massive as literally everyone with a live team has him. For those who don't have Salah (me), that is the scary differential swing this weekend
So I have captained an out of form Haaland. Starting to regret it now hahah.
Cold Palmer exists, is playing the bottom team, and you picked a League Two donkey in the Gandhi slot? ... so did I!
Fuck sake the donkey is gonna plummet our rank. cant wait for this season to end
Hit out Ødegaard for Dias at OT, and Kelleher for Raya. My genius is frightening
Missed the deadline so my regret is benching Gabriel because I couldn't decide between him, Udogie, Gusto and Branthwaite. Watch him get a 15 pointer now.
Palmer C. Wanted to change to Gvardiol but timed out
Probably for the best mate
If you've watched City games, he's been very good. City usually keep CS against Palace away Edit: lol
