I'm already down to 9 players and the first game hasn't even kicked off ffs. Just read that Ramsdale sat out of training as well. Sort of feel like I should've used the FH already. I forgot to change my team and have somehow ended up with Ramsey as captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouUnastanFren Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 3/12 players down, 2 didn't play and the other was my FT Jimenez for a total of -2. Wish this was one of the weeks I'd missed the deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rds1983 Posted March 19, 2022 Author VT Supporter Share Posted March 19, 2022 4 players down including my captain and I'm on 2 points. This is going to be a memorable week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted March 20, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2022 73 points and a 26k rank jump from 82k to 56k Was worried I was wasting one of my free hits but I think that’s justified it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouUnastanFren Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 If I'd have known about Raphinha, Kilman and Ramsdale I'd have FH. Apparently all 3 were leaked before the deadline I just didn't have the time to look. Ended up with 49 and a drop in rank of about 1,200 so it could've been worse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrusr Posted March 20, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted March 20, 2022 After having -3 on Friday night (captain Jimenez of course), ended up with a respectable 65. Only Villa & Wolves players let me down. Not a bad use of the Free Hit given I wasn’t going to be able to get 11 players without transfers.

a-k Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Ended up with 10 points and a near 250k red arrow. That's probably me done in my mini-leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Rushed through a free hit at 6:25 on Friday evening with little to no thought (I put Ramsdale in ) but it delivered me 80 points so I'm pleased. Things have gone quite good since my 26 WC, boosted myself up to 183k however I have now used all my chips. In a way I'm sort of glad they're all done and I don't have to think about any of them, it will probably backfire in the remaining doubles and whatnot but whatever. Can just ride the last few weeks of the season out now and try to keep my rank respectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 60 points total but I took a -4. Still somehow got a green arrow despite having only 6 starters and Hwang off the bench for a 1 pointer. Need to work out when to WC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can just ride the last few weeks of the season out now and try to keep my rank respectable. I think GW33 and 36 will be the key gameweeks where not having a chip may make things difficult. Both will end up being big doubles. My suggestion would be to seek out the details of GW36 (they're out there in at least "best guess" form) and use your remaining free transfers to build a good team for that week. That should minimise the damage of not having a chip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plan to use mine around the upcoming big doubles to try and catch up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally I want to tie the WC into a huge BB and it seems better to do it GW36 and that would mean I'd free hit GW33. It doesn't look like any additional games are going to be put in before that. Without that free hit getting me through I'd have to WC now, that might give me some room to hold off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I planned my transfers to get me a BB squad in GW36 and will still free hit in 33. Wildcard in 35 to BB in 36 is a good tactic though.

Wainy316 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Kane captain'd. Now how can I get Son into my team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've 2 FTs but I also own Kulu and Doherty, so it would be at the expense of Kulu. I don't think I can justify the ~5m difference and he would eat into my future budget for upgrading a non-playing striker for BB36. And yet, he might do so much damage in the next few weeks to justify it. This game eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
