Fantasy Premier League 2012/2013

[Jake]

Three of my guys DNP and another dumb ass got a straight red and is out until September. This is what happens when you know about 20 guys in EPL, jump in a league the night before the season and pick a squad while under the influence.

Eden Hazard went off this week in his debut. He assisted on five of Chelsea's six goals in the first two games. Two of them were drawing penalties, but both were rightly earned.

I am just going to assume everyone that is ahead of me cheated. :susp:

I already pressed the panic button, and used my wild card.

Can't be too upset about 4th when I got 0 points out of 2 of my 3 most highly paid players.

David Silva not shitting the bed twice would have been really helpful... Dempsey I deserve for not paying attention and benching him.

They subbed Dempsey out for you because he didn't play which is one thing I really like about fantasy premier league. I had Jose Enrique in my starting 11, but he didn't play & they automatically put Ashley Williams in for me (when the final scoring came out).

Holy shit I'm in 5th place!

2nd is not bad considering Dempsey was out.

The game will automatically bring players off the bench in place of players that do not play during the given week. That is what the 1 thru 3 bench ranking is for (it picks according to how you rank them, now how many points they score from the bench or their position). The issue of course is that when of your big guys is out you probably aren't going to get anywhere close to equivilant production from a bench guy.

 

[Smudger]

Holy [Mark May] I'm in 5th place!

You got a solid squad. Just be sure to get rid of Alex Song sometime soon as he's on Barcelona now.You could probably do without Giggs to, as he's not a regular starter & who knows when he will ever play with the plethora of options United have at this point. You spent a lot on defense & goalies, but hey, those are good players at those positions. Just an FYI, You can select a captain & vice captain from your starting 11 & whoever is the captain will get double the points from that gameweek. If he doesn't play, then it will be your vice captain who get's double points. I don't know whether you knew that or not because your captain was Kompany & Krul was the vice captain (Smart move if you're banking on clean sheets & what not). I tend to use those on my forwards & midfielders because they're more likely to score.

I was waiting for you to gloat about that. You have a sick squad so I can't really talk shit. How does Danny Graham play 90 minutes & not get on the score sheet in that 5-0 destruction of QPR ?

I already dumped Song. I grabbed Giggs because I heard of him but he's getting old.

I had no idea what the captain and vice captain tags did. I'll change those. Thanks. :)

Believe me I was trying to figure that out myself.

Michu is looking sooooo tantalizing right about now...he has some serious class on the ball. I may have been preemptive with Taraabt as he has done his customary starting the season overweight and out of shape again.

Giggs is 6.5m so there's some decent players in that range to take a look at if you feel like dumping him down the road. I figured you didn't know about the captain thing, but I wasn't sure, so I just wanted to give you the heads up. Keep in mind you're only allowed one free transfer each gameweek. Each transfer after the free one in a gameweek will cost you four points from your overall total. Didn't know if you were aware of that either.

It probably doesn't bode well that I've never heard of either of those guys.

I think I'm going to learn a lot more about the EPL playing this league.

Yeah, I saw the transfer fee thing when I went to dump half my squad so I went to Plan B.
