Fantasy Premier League Review: A Win For Manchester United, A Loss For My FPL

As a Manchester united fan, this weekend was a great one for me, I already knew that we had a high chance of winning when Liverpool players started acting up left and getting injured, but the actual win was amazing.

The thrill of my team winning Liverpool 2:1 made me sleep well yesterday night and even though, this win doesn’t give me so much hope, it was something good for once.

Now to my fantasy team; I already knew this week would be awful when I missed the deadline and the only changes I did was during the week when I was playing around with my team.

I still had a bit of hope though because I had “good enough” players but, the first game day gave me about 8 points, and I didn't like it.

At the end of the game week, I had a foolish 38 points, with all my defense line giving me 3 points; 3 POINTS!

This was is frustrating because I have players in my defense line that are so expensive; the majority of my 100 million was spent there and I didn't see a future where Mancity would be drawing to Newcastle, Chelsea would lose to Leeds and Liverpool would struggle to Freaking Manunited; It's premier league but, I expected assists at least.

The only reasonable points I got this week were from 5 players and one was benched so, that didn't even count.

This is literally my worse week in my FPL career and that is saying something because I have been doing this for a while but, oh well, WHAT IS NEXT?

The main plan for the last game week was to bring it Perisic and after his points, I rushed and got him in; a mistake? Might be.

Another plan is to switch out one Liverpool defense and add the funds to maybe getting Rodrigo or Toney; they have been racking in points and I don't want them to be too expensive before I can get them.

FINALLY

Even with these plans, I am still curious to see how my two Liverpool defenses would go against Bournemouth, I feel like if I sell one and they get good points, I will be angry.

Anyways, the season still just started and one bad game week doesn't make a bad season so, I am still doing what I can, and hopefully, next week will be better.

If Liverpool concede against Bournemouth I'll cut TA-Arnold lose immediately. Trippier already has two cleans sheets and 1 goal. No time to keep underperforming, highly expensive defenders.

Same thing here, they are too expensive for the points they are giving; no clean yet this season.

I'm actually full of regrets right now. I've never started the season with TA-Arnold before. I actually chose Robertson, and then Matip ahead of him last season. Even for this season, my gut feeling told me to ignore him but the dude was in over 80% of teams. I was scared of missing out.

That's the thing with TA, I didn't start last year with him and I was forced to, so this year I didn't want to and look at all this.

I am so tired.

This is probably the most chaotic start to an FPL season I've experienced. It's been frustrating.

TAA has got to be the most disappointing so far. Expensive and underperforming.

And I think I'll have to follow your advice and dump Mbeumo for Ivan Toney who's been on fire

Well Liverpool has been suffering so I am having hope that it will get better, also Mbuemo shouldn't even be on your team.

Great post and congrats on the Man U win!!! We have very similar teams. I am thinking I will hold TAA and Robo at least for the Bournemouth game. Hopefully, they start performing and our investment will pay off.

Hopefully, it pays off, or else, I am selling at least one, too many cheap defenders doing good things

Manchester United stunned me with the win. I least expected it. There is one young player that debuted for Man United in that game, I can't remember his name, he is someone to watch out for.

Sancho??
I expected a win because of the amount of injured players in Liverpool but it actually happening was crazy

Hehe, defenders were shit this gameweek. Only a few performed.

Wait this is your worst ever points tally? 🤯 Hmm, it means you're a guru oo. Cause I've suffered in this thing, especially last year. Oh and the year of Covid, where games were getting canceled anyhow.

The only reason I'm so angry is because of how expensive they are, if they were cheaper, I wouldn't have minded.

Also, I've been playing for five years, not a guru but I know what works; rather I knew 😆 because these weeks have been awful

Yes, it's always painful, when the expensive players blank. Like now, I have son who's only gotten an assist this season and he cost 11.9 (12 before) or so.

Hmm, experience is the best teacher they say, Goodluck

It was a frustrating week, no doubt. I never imagined seeing your point this low. It hits everyone. I have to shake a few things and hopefully this weekend would pay off.
