I already have doubts about my squad xD

I took out Leeds players after seeing one of @Lucas's posts earlier. May bring one or two in mid-Sept. 

 

I wouldn't fret about that mate. It's very much a wait and see on us although I do think Sinisterra is one who could light up this division, if he stays.

Your team is decent to be far. Without having seen any football to judge it on, you really never know how its gonna go but the beauty with gaffr is all the chips allow you to get back in it.

I think the obvious thing with yours currently is perhaps the lack of Saints which judging on tonight, does a look a slight misjudgement. Can always bring one in next week though.

8 the same, with 2 of them on the bench.

I would assume most template teams will have Dieng, Rankin-Costello, Manning, Sinisterra, Ward-Prowse, Dewsbury-Hall and Davis.

I have 2 of those you mentioned above. xD

Yeah will PM you and @JoshBRFC.

 

@The Palace Fan @Bluebird Hewitt @Dan you also in? If so I'll PM you too. 

I'll pass this time around sorry. :(

Yeah there's definitely a template forming this season.

Dieng at 4.5m is fair value at QPR but at Boro he's underpriced.

Joe Rankin-Costello seems to be listed as a right back because everywhere isn't a position.

Ryan Manning was good for Russell Martin last year and with Bree/Livramento/KWP remains the solid Southampton pick.

Leif Davis stats at League One transition perfectly for this game.

James Ward-Prowse is far too good for this level and on set pieces.

I think the others are open for debate. Sinisterra and Ayling only came in for me because of injuries up top and Drameh not featuring pre season. KDH is purely a play on pre season form and I could see myself switching to whoever Leicester's main man up top is in September.

Seen the PM will sort later @Stan if not everyone is in then just do whoever finishes highest out of us that pay, gets the winnings. 

 

Just had a look at all your teams, I initially thought of Vardy,  but with the other options Leicester have, I wasn’t sure whether he would start every game? But I can see him up there with the top scorers… easily.

Wow I’ve started bad. 
 

For home advantage…. When it says no captain multipliers for any player or position does that include players that aren’t at home? 

Yes mate. No Captain multipliers full stop because essentially, you could have 11 players all getting multiple points if they are all at home.

Why was Budget Buster so popular this weekend, compared to others? 

I wanted to use it for 25 but the fixture congestion around that Christmas period is going to cause a lot of rotation.

Plus a lot of the options have been pretty terrible in comparison to Szmodics, Leeds, Leicester and Southampton players. So this was the first week I could use it without theoretically taking a hit. Which I had to do when Philogene got injured.

This is our 4th season of Gaffr I believe, last weekend approaching.

My previous finishes were...

70th 20/21

48th 21/22

39th 22/23

Currently 47th. I think I'm gonna be hard pushed now to improve and beat 39th unless I make a couple of punts that work for me but it's been another enjoyable season of the game.

Given FPL will have less blanks next year meaning less DGW's, to make it interesting, they could have learned a thing or two from Gaffr and  introduced maybe two extra chips to play on a single matchday, like a Park the Bus, Triple Triple or Budget Buster.

Not sure the FPL community could handle such rapid change 😂

Have also enjoyed it. 

Not sure if it was Gaffr or another game - but a few seasons ago there was an EFL fantasy league one, where you had to have a certain amount of L1 & L2 players. Wouldn't mind if that came back too as it would stop the Championship dominance which at times can get a bit too predictable.

You and @The Palace Fan smashed this season right from the start. I messed up my start so was always playing catch-up, and mistimed some of my boosts/chips.
