The College Dropout Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 The Champ has put in a horrible title defence. Aiming for a top 25 finish in the NO league. First time in a number of seasons I won't have finished in the top 10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never recovered from backing against Salah early in the season. It's been green arrows for months but starting from such a low base it's been tough.

Never recovered from backing against Salah early in the season. It's been green arrows for months but starting from such a low base it's been tough. I lost my nerve with Isak and took him out for a hit to bring in Nicholas Jackson It was the West Ham game he missed through injury and we looked so shit. Didn't trust Howe to be honest about his injury and couldn't bear the pain of us being shit and having Isak in the team. Jackson scored 0 goals, Isak scored something like 10 in 5. Brace against Liverpool, hat trick when the fixtures got easy. That was my point of failure. Moved on from Wood and Mbuemo when I was better off sticking. Failed punt on Foden. Never got on the right side of hat-tricks or multiple hauls unless it's Salah when everyone else did too. Too trigger happy in the wrong moments, too slow in others. Started to get on the right side of variance now with good captain picks KDB the week before, Wood this week. But not getting the hauls vs blanks to make serious ground, just single returns and bonus. I expected to make ground up GW20-30 but it never came. Was ranked 1m until GW30 or so. People can spend 5 mins on FPL a week and do that. Patience and keeping it simple for me next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salah has been a must captain for 90% of the season only dipped last few weeks - and Haaland - if you didn't captain him for his hattricks at start of season - game over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not scored from open play in literally months ( Not checked that...), no way I'm capping him vs anyone other than shit teams for the rest of the season.

For awhile penalties were masking it. He's scored a league high 9 of those. I'm at an awful rank. Got Watkins (C) and Palmer for a -4. My version of gambling. One of the Europa teams (at least) will get pumped 3+ IMO. Gutted I don't have Rogers, it has G+A all over it for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guybrush Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Rights. Captained Watkins to hopefully give him some bad luck - what else should I be doing? I've still got a work league to win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
