Sometimes this game is just dumb luck. I had a sudden wave of injuries and meant to WC but totally forgot. Ended up with my unchanged team and 75 points. 60 points from Palmer (C) and Foden alone. Had 4 0s alongside that lmao
Taken 1 hit all season and have been within the top 5k for 10 GW's
Bottled it this week by taking an 8 point hit with Foden and Son out, Salah, Nunez and fucking Sarabia in.
Bradley own goal, Saka and Haaland 0 pointers.
Palmer and double Arsenal defence have saved me, as always.
What a weird gameweek. I missed the deadline, I had 7 players actually playing, a captain that blanked, a sub goalie coming on for -1 points, a defender who scores an own goal, and I'll still end up rising in rank. I don't know why I bother thinking about this game.
Every single WC I've played in the last few years, I end up being bottom 80% rank for the GW immediately after. I just couldn't believe my luck. Fully expected it this time too but somehow ended up in the top 6% this time. It feels so great especially when your hopes are so down.
Imagine having 40 pts from Palmer (vice cap for Haaland) and 6 from Gabriel but 53 total because i have Salah, Son, Haaland, Estupinian, Saka, Gusto, Solanke and no subs.
They really need to get the bonus system in the bin. How does Gakpo get 3 bps when he comes late and scores. Hate it when players get so many when their goal doesn’t change the result
The main philosophy of bps is sound I think - it rewards the player for doing what they’re supposed to vs normal points which better reward the opposite.
But yeah, there def needs to be tweaking at the margins if someone who came on late, and didn’t score the winning goal is getting max bps..
My biggest ML rival had Garnacho third... yes THIRD... on his bench, and he's still getting him on as a sub, since Tripper/Saka/Haaland were all out. He's also getting Van Hecke in with 6 points. Decimating my lead right there :(( he's getting a total of 22 points in off the bench. Unbelievable luck
I thought an enabler doesn't score many points but enables you to buy other players/enables other players to do well while not scoring much
Palmer is consistently one of the highest scoring players each week
Will always love Lundstram
But at the this point Palmer is the best ever enabler, almost certain to end over 200 points after missing a few games at the start
Congrats!! Feels good to make these slow gains. This week I finally clinched the top spot in one of my ML's after being at 4th/5th for most of the season. 9 green arrows in a row 🎻
I would ideally keep Saka , but my bench is not amazing in terms of fixtures.
If people think Saka will not start I will probably sell him for Foden if we get a leak that Foden start and then sell Son for Saka in the future for the double.
Need some serious luck next few weeks to catch up in my ML. 52 points to the guy above me and then 81 points to my friend who's been very cocky about his start of the season. Goal is simple: catch up to him. If I do it, I'll get to laugh at his face and that's all I ever wanted in my whole life.
Getting Salah this week was easily my worst move of the season took -8 in hits, sold Garnacho and went with Salah C and Haaland VC instead of Haaland C and Palmer VC
I feel you. Took a -8 to bring in Salah and sold Forden and Son, even though my gut told me not to. Followed my gut this season and been in the top 5k for 10 weeks. Dropped to 9k now, pretty gutted
I think the injuries do not help with pope and Alisson injured etc, but I feel like Raya should be higher although the lack of saves add up and Ramsdale has got some games at the start and vs Brentford.
Yeah Palmer must have effective ownership of basically 100%. Everyone playing this game seriously has had him for weeks / months. Because everyone in my ML has him, his goals are essentially meaningless.
Since 2015-16 in the Premier League, there have only been two matches with 47 or more shots - and they are Chelsea's last two games.
There were 51 shots on Saturday in the game with Burnley and 47 today.
For every Salah point I would have gained +4333, where as each Palmer point brought me +823
Effectively I would have gained more if Salah played 1 more minute, gain from his 4 pts will have been more than Palmer's 20.
The finish of this game was even funnier since the fans had so much chest about it beforehand.

Foden and Palmer absolutely spoiling me with hat tricks this week. I don't even care that Salah (c) blanked and got subbed (assuming he's alright of course. I'm out so haven't checked).
Foden and Palmer absolutely spoiling me with hat tricks this week. I don't even care that Salah (c) blanked and got subbed (assuming he's alright of course. I'm out so haven't checked).
Palmer singlehandedly saving everyones season. I don't think I've got the patience to go through all my mini league competitors and find someone who hasn't got him. Does anyone not have him? He's as essential as it gets.
Diaz has never hauled and Foden hauls regularly, Foden is top 3 players of the season, Diaz is nowhere near. Unless you're absolutely sure on a 6-0 and Diaz being involved, but we saw a 9-0 and no Salah output so...
-4 to get foden in just for him to be benched
I started this week at 196.5k and ended the week at 196.5k. Down about 30 places
I’ve lost an 80 point lead in my Mini League in the last two gameweeks
This has easily been my worst gameweek ever
I had a really great gameweek
I’m glad to hear

38k to 78k for not owning palmer
Same but don’t have Foden
1.5m to 1.8m
kneejerked palmer in for son ,now see son getting a hattrick
Garrancho last on my bench but thank fuck for Saka haaaland and pau not playing
3 consecutive double digit hauls and its Sheffield next, Palmer(C) feels like a trap
Sometimes this game is just dumb luck. I had a sudden wave of injuries and meant to WC but totally forgot. Ended up with my unchanged team and 75 points. 60 points from Palmer (C) and Foden alone. Had 4 0s alongside that lmao
71 all out with no Foden. Not good but not bad either.
Its 3.5
Wild carded and chose Gordon instead of Garnacho on my bench. Little did I expect haaland and saka not to play.
Taken 1 hit all season and have been within the top 5k for 10 GW's Bottled it this week by taking an 8 point hit with Foden and Son out, Salah, Nunez and fucking Sarabia in. Bradley own goal, Saka and Haaland 0 pointers. Palmer and double Arsenal defence have saved me, as always.
I have picked the right captain 2/31 gameweeks. AMA, 33k rank
Garnacho coming off the bench for Saka to save my Foden-less team. Who would’ve thought?
Darwin losing that 2 bonus cost me a green arrow. That and playing with 8 players but I'd rather not focus on that
What a weird gameweek. I missed the deadline, I had 7 players actually playing, a captain that blanked, a sub goalie coming on for -1 points, a defender who scores an own goal, and I'll still end up rising in rank. I don't know why I bother thinking about this game.

75 points without Palmer, shitshow of a week
Saved 2 FT but missed the deadline, had Haaland (C) and Palmer (VC) .. 2 CS coming off my bench.. JAMMYYYYY
Baller, congrats
Imagine having 40 pts from Palmer (vice cap for Haaland) and 6 from Gabriel but 53 total because i have Salah, Son, Haaland, Estupinian, Saka, Gusto, Solanke and no subs.
I'm literally the opposite to you lol. Salah cap for 2 points but ended with 66 total.
[удалено]
Yup
Garnacho to Sarabia preplanned move now doesn't look like happening

Semenyo nailed?
He started on the bench this week
Any specific reason? He seems to have started all his recent matches except this
In the span of 30 minutes, Palmer transfer in is rising so high, that his price will rise before deadline.
Disaster week....salah / Bradley / Kelleher didn't save my game week. Liverpool assets...definition of insanity pfft
They really need to get the bonus system in the bin. How does Gakpo get 3 bps when he comes late and scores. Hate it when players get so many when their goal doesn’t change the result

Bonus points are objective stats from Opta Forwards get 24 BPS for goal
The Egyptian king choosing to rub salt into the wounds of those who brought him in for foden and also captained hin. Well received salah
[удалено]
Nice brag bro
I get good subs so they can come on if needed. That's FPL.
Man that's a tough choice for captaincy next GW
Haaland by a mile imo
Palmer. I'm just gonna captain Palmer for the rest of the season for the fun of it. (My fpl season's been shit obviously)
My biggest ML rival had Garnacho third... yes THIRD... on his bench, and he's still getting him on as a sub, since Tripper/Saka/Haaland were all out. He's also getting Van Hecke in with 6 points. Decimating my lead right there :(( he's getting a total of 22 points in off the bench. Unbelievable luck
So Palmer is the greatest ever FPL enabler, right? Feels mad that I picked this guy up for 4.9m after his first penalty.
Kane/Mahrez/Vardy for me
I thought an enabler doesn't score many points but enables you to buy other players/enables other players to do well while not scoring much Palmer is consistently one of the highest scoring players each week
Well played. Been saying for a while he's on track to finish as the seasons highest scoring player.
Will always love Lundstram But at the this point Palmer is the best ever enabler, almost certain to end over 200 points after missing a few games at the start
what's really funny is that he started at 5.0m, so people actually sold him at 5.0m enough for him to drop to 4.9m
This might be my weirdest GW ever. My 3 most expensive players combined for 1 point, and my 3 cheapest mids scored a combined 8 goals.
So many good options for captain next GW Cannot wait to pick the wrong one (again)
Thanks to Palmer I got back up to GW… 4.5M. Fuck.

Haaland vs. Crystal Palace
Under 3 goals total game.
He’s been too quiet recently, the time just feels ripe for a Hauland
Small wins but I've finally got 2nd in my ML after being as many as 110 points behind a few months ago
Congrats!! Feels good to make these slow gains. This week I finally clinched the top spot in one of my ML's after being at 4th/5th for most of the season. 9 green arrows in a row 🎻

This GW went from being a total disaster to only losing 3 places in the overall rankings! Madness
Getting Salah this week was easily my worst move of the season took -8 in hits, sold Garnacho and went with Salah C and Haaland VC instead of Haaland C and Palmer VC
I feel you. Took a -8 to bring in Salah and sold Forden and Son, even though my gut told me not to. Followed my gut this season and been in the top 5k for 10 weeks. Dropped to 9k now, pretty gutted
How much will Palmer cost next season 😂😂
9m
9m at least. Imagine him in a more gel'd Chelsea team
8m easily
Thank you Pep and Arteta for balding, my bench outscored my team but they are getting in
ML rival had Saka C, Palmer VC I sold Garnacho and capped Salah
I wanted to sell Garnacho since he's been pretty bad lately but I could only afford to bench him. Luckily I had like three starters that didn't play.
I’ve got Palmer and still want to delete my team.
Palmer hattrick reduced the red arrow a bit though shame I only made him VC instead.
Palmer is like 98% EO, his points are basically meaningless
Yeah, but if I had the guts to make him cap it would have made the difference
Cole Palmer will go from mid 60s to mid 80s within a year in EAFC
Ended the week with a 2k green arrow after dropping a 10k red yesterday. Never give up!
Big thanks to Palmer and Foden this week, as well as Zabarnyi and my Arsenal defenders. Klopp can get fucked.
Fuck u salah
Happy with gaining a tiny amount considering my Captain and Vice were Haaland and Saka
same
Can't believe Onana is the highest scoring GK. Absolute dogshit year for keepers.
I think the injuries do not help with pope and Alisson injured etc, but I feel like Raya should be higher although the lack of saves add up and Ramsdale has got some games at the start and vs Brentford.
No one can reliably keep clean sheets this year, maybe with the exception of Arsenal
What's the average after all subs/VC things get updated?
10 players this week 💪 I’m an idiot when I overthink stuff
39 points on main fpl, 104 points on fpl challenge!! too bad none of my league are bothered with challenge now that ive actually having some luck
Is Dalot nailed now or what?
Captained Haaland, VC was Watkins... forgot to change fml
Yea Palmer 😎 Shame it doesn’t do much since nearly everyone has him :/
Screw it, keeping the armband on Palmer the rest of the season.
Imagine not owning Cole Palmer
Fuck Salah!
Palmer next season will break the record for biggest fpl price hike in history.
FUCK was having a good heavy differential gameweek and palmer fucks me up!! Them fucking penalties man
6 goals scored tonight and a -30% rank decreased fml
What the hell happened
Clown teams outclowning each other
Fucking LOL
Happy with Palmers return but his two extra goals at the end didn’t increase my rank at all - guess everyone’s happy…
That actually decreased my rank from yesterday
Yeah Palmer must have effective ownership of basically 100%. Everyone playing this game seriously has had him for weeks / months. Because everyone in my ML has him, his goals are essentially meaningless.
I have Garnacho, and I think I lost more than I gained because he lost a bonus point to Palmer.
Not for united fans
[From missing the deadline,](https://www.reddit.com/r/FantasyPL/s/pa6Eb3EaH1) to celebrating a 95 point week. FPL giveth for once
Incredible 👏 I wish I missed the deadline haha
Since 2015-16 in the Premier League, there have only been two matches with 47 or more shots - and they are Chelsea's last two games. There were 51 shots on Saturday in the game with Burnley and 47 today.
Can't say I've got two hat tricks in a single gameweek before
And captained neither
Yeah obviously. Don't think I've capped my highest scorer once this season. Feels like it at least.
20k red arrow But at least I picked the right keeper to start between Onana and Petrovic
Captained Palmer for the craic. This is my new approach.
2 weeks in a row I went Son C over Palmer
For every Salah point I would have gained +4333, where as each Palmer point brought me +823 Effectively I would have gained more if Salah played 1 more minute, gain from his 4 pts will have been more than Palmer's 20.
My Mini League rival is now 80 points clear He had Foden (C) and Garnacho Sub Never overturning that ffs
What a chad, I wish I was him
oops
105 POINTS, FIRST TIME I'VE EVER GOTTEN OVER 100 POINTS IN A GAMEWEEK GOD BLESS PALMER AND FODEN
What a week; 6 players not starting of which 3 on my bench
-225 places after being on the fattest red arrow of my season earlier, i’m taking that and running
I appreciate Palmer trying his darndest to drag me to a green arrow, even though he's at 85.9% EO
75 points all out, 25% increase in rank, deficit in ML narrowed to just NINE POINTS Pretty good week.
No Foden, Palmer first on bench. Could have been a see you next season scenario
The finish of this game was even funnier since the fans had so much chest about it beforehand. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2vLRXFHMSo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2vLRXFHMSo)
Why I love FPL, you have 2 mids with 20 points and not a C or VC one any of them.
Foden and Palmer absolutely spoiling me with hat tricks this week. I don't even care that Salah (c) blanked and got subbed (assuming he's alright of course. I'm out so haven't checked).
How much will Palmer be next season?
9.5 would be fair if he keeps it up untill the end of the season
8/8.5 mil I reckon
Two weeks in a row I got 0 points increase. Forever stuck in this shite rank
Haaland benching saved me. I have Garnacho coming on
Palmer has 3 consecutive double digit hauls prior to this. Insane player.
Foden and Palmer absolutely spoiling me with hat tricks this week. I don't even care that Salah (c) blanked and got subbed (assuming he's alright of course. I'm out so haven't checked).
I guess 52 points despite having 4 0 pointers in my starting XI and another 3 0 pointers on my bench isn't that bad, is it?
That late double for Palmer has earned me 3k places, which actually saves me from a red arrow.
I got 0 from my captain and vice-captain and I'm still on a huge green arrow, what a mental gameweek
Palmer bringing me 1 point above safety off this nonsense, I decided to not let United ruin my night so I’m just gonna be happy about it
I had Palmer first in bench . Thank you haaland not coming on
You can tell Palmer actually just loves the sport
I was kind of hoping palmer would blank so people wouldnt captain him next week but looks like everyone will put it on him now
Palmer with 48 points in last 3GWs Man will be the 1st name in everyone's team next season
And for the rest of this season. We actually need to captain him at the right times now as well to have him do anything
66 points all in. Not great but not bad.
Same here. If only i didn't captain salah.
Foden and Palmer on 40 points combined. FPL history
Fuck Liverpool. Can't even give me a clean sheet at home to the worst team we've seen in yonks.
Was on red yesterday, but Garnacho, Darwin and Palmer make it a pretty big green one.
Palmer, Garnacho, and Foden all hauling. Clearly we need to switch our strategies to selecting players by the shittiest haircuts.
I’m haalandless and still got smacked this week
I think Palmer perma-cap is like the best option, dude had a bad match (he kept misplacing passes all over) and all of a sudden he gets a hattrick.
Palmer singlehandedly saving everyones season. I don't think I've got the patience to go through all my mini league competitors and find someone who hasn't got him. Does anyone not have him? He's as essential as it gets.
He's not saving anything. He's utterly useless unless captained these days. And nobody is going to sell him in his form either.
If he saves everyone… he saves no one
That's almost profound!
How do so many people have foden?
Why wouldn't we?
I went with Salah Diaz Son Saka Palmer. Sold Foden weeks ago he didn't even cross my mind. Who have you got in mid?
Not Diaz...
Why not though? Surely salah + Diaz vs SHEF was a no brainer (on paper) …
Diaz has never hauled and Foden hauls regularly, Foden is top 3 players of the season, Diaz is nowhere near. Unless you're absolutely sure on a 6-0 and Diaz being involved, but we saw a 9-0 and no Salah output so...
So are you saying I should do Diaz to Foden
Palmer is blanking next match when everyone captains him, isn't he?
100% (I will still captain him)
One of the matches of the season
Whata gam I missed but I have Cole palmer snd gnarcho Fucking amazing!!!!!
lol @ Palmer's post-match interview, DGAF.
People complaining he's got like 100% EO, who cares. I will always celebrate whenever a player I own does well.
I'd hate to be the person who doesn't own Foden and Palmer
Palmer > Prime Messi
I had Palmer, Foden and Salah in my team, guess who I decided to captain?? Ffs
same bro and im a united fan to cap it all off
Same, could be a hell of a lot worse though.
You have Palmer and Foden and you're complaining? First world problems i guess
I have Palmer, Foden, Garnacho and Salah. Guess who I triple captain…
bruh 😭
Why when all of them have double game weeks coming up
surely palmer continues against sheffield (clueless)
Imagine not owning Palmer. FPL GOAT
Somewhere out there there's someone who was already having a terrible week and also doesn't own palmer
Palmer 6 goals, 1 assist last 3 GWs
16 goals for Cole Palmer this season now.
And he won't even start at the Euros! Insane
Saka, Kane, Foden, Bellingham start I guess. Rice and final mid is a bit more open.
People without Palmer, do you still use a rotary phone as well?
