bickster Posted March 16 Moderator Share Posted March 16 Took a -8 to bring in Toney, Bowen and Udogie giving me 9 players. Took out Haaland, Foden and Estupinan I was only going to take the one hit but decided I’m wildcarding next GW so that kinda changed my perspective as a -8 is only really -4 this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted March 16 VT Supporter Share Posted March 16 (edited) did a free hit. basically only points that are going to count for anything are porro, flekken, bailey, elanga and digne. the rest of the team is just total template edit: the regulon red card is handy though. he's quite highly owned edit edit: i just saw on twitter that regulon continues to get minus points for goals conceded. is that true? i get being sent off indirectly contributes to goals conceded but seems unfair. not complaining obviously Edited March 16 by tomav84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Dodged the free hit, if Richy gets on then that's 8 players with 3 of the big ones in Watkins, Son and Bowen. Everyone around me in my work league has used it. If I can just hold on this week I feel I could be in a good position and at least it'll make things interesting for me now.

Of course we know how it plays out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I didn't FH, I would have been on 3 players without taking any hits. I would be surprised if, at the end of the GW, I would have been better off not FHing.

But the points gained from having a free hit to use in a later gameweek would almost certainly be higher than the points you’ve gained from using it this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With WC and BB still to use, I think this was the best time for FH, but let's see, time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted March 16 VT Supporter Share Posted March 16 it was a flip of a coin decision for me between elanga and fofana as to who starts and who's 1st bench. i chose wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 My god I'm happy I didn't free hit. Obviously if you barely had players you had to use it by wow has it not paid off today. Barely been hurt by it at all. Feeling good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous lowest average score in our league was 28.0 (incidentally also this season, Gameweek 11) This week the average was only 16.8 I split our league into mini leagues and the previous LOWEST score to be the highest score for that week in a minileague was 33 back in 19/20. This week all 4 minileague winning scores were less than that, with the highest being 30 and the lowest being 20 Even for the small amount of fixtures it was a mad week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Don't think I've ever been so content with an 11 point gameweek. Just need to play the chips right now for it to be worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
