Introduction

Firstly if you’re new to the site my last 4 seasons overall ranks are 17k, 36k, 17k and 21k.

GW12

GW12 points: 68 -4 (FPL average 51) Total points 695, Overall Rank: 1,064k, green arrow  152k Team Value: £100.5m

I used my wildcard in GW9

Here’s the points:

So in a week when there was a number of red arrows I guess I should be happy with a 150k green arrow.

Unfortunately like last week I’m anything but and I mean it without detracting from the people who had red arrows this week.

The problem is that last week I had 9 returning players and this week 7.  These should be rank halving weeks and not a 25% increase and a 10% increase in ranks.  What really concerns me though is these lucky weeks will see me paid back with unlucky weeks where there are only 1 or 2 returning players and you can bet your bottom dollar that there will be a huge drop drop which wipes out these gains.

Just as an aside I wasn’t worried about losing the Vardy points.  I was always going to use him to get Salah once Fernandes’s form had improved so significantly so it is what it is.  I did expect the Brighton to defend better but to be fair to them 15 shots and a 1.64 xGA isn’t the worst and Vardy did get 2 assists from 2 key passes.  Also whenever you’ve got a hopeless GK like Ryan (worst save % in the PL) then there’s always that risk.  Add to that the eventuality that after a 1000 long range shots eventually Maddison gets 1 right.



Transfer thoughts

1 free transfer and £0.0m in the bank

So no compelling reason to make a transfer this week so I’m carrying over the free transfer

Captain thoughts

The FFGeek Captain poll and some others I had a quick look at generally seem to be favouring De Bruyne so that’s who I’ve gone for with Fernandes as a vice.  Both have good fixtures.

Lineup issues

The choice required was 2 of Soucek, Dallas and Walker Peters.  As usual I used bookies odds to decide who to lineup on and surprisingly the widest odds was for a Southampton clean sheet so he’s first on my bench.  It’s possible Cancelo doesn’t play unfortunately so it could be an irrelevant decision.

Here’s the team

Good luck everyone!
