Auba (c), although i'm kind've convinced he'll be benched. Not a lot of others to choose from this week for me :(

Yeah, last week I captained him over Kane, this week I captained Aubameyang over Salah. :lol:

Salah has been sold widely in the 10k so is still a big plus for owners, his EO is only 52% in that group and he is the 3rd most popular captain pick. Kane EO 96%, Aubameyang EO 86% are the 1st and 2nd picks.

Great start to the weekend Image
However, this was supposed to be his last week in my team, it’s going to really muck up my planning.

I think I need to thank Seth for me not WCing therefore keeping Salah one more week with the armband - nothing else from my squad.

Ancient Egyptian Gods - Seth
The Egyptian God Seth was also known as the god of chaos. According to popular Egyptian mythology it would certainly seem that he created plenty of mayhem and havoc.

Seth certainly having some fun this week :P

I’m tempted by Ryan this GW, the strategy of captaining someone playing against Burnley has borne fruit time and time again, they’re crap.
How did that strategy work out this week?

Pretty sure we won the xG today as well (but not sure how we did on Val's super secret xG model).

Bad. Captained Kane and Salah vice. Typical. I’d have been better off captaining Ryan after all.

Just saw your comment earlier in this thread about my ‘ignorant refusal’ to respond, gave me a good laugh. That appears to be what, 15 minutes after you had asked about my xG table I think? What do you want to know about the xG tables I use?

Why do you think I was in such a rush to bet on Burnley to go down, a team that had finished 7th the year before. Because on my stats they were absolute dogshit last season too and got incredibly lucky. Eye test too, outplayed time after time and stole a bunch of 1-0s. I get annoyed with this ‘Europa League has stitched Burnley up’ nonsense because I don’t see their performances as much different to last season only the luck/variance is evening out. The tenner with you is a drop in the ocean by the way. Burnley go down and I shall be treating myself. Nothing personal on my side.

The Kane minutes over the last 2 games thing is a real head scratcher to me. Plenty other captained Kane too so it ain’t just me.

It's an ignorant refusal because I've asked you about four times to show the evidence you claim to have that Burnley were as bad last season as they have been this season.

Still waiting...

I didn’t get a single message from you, so how can I reply? Check your outbox.

Didn’t I say their xG is ‘not that different’ from last season? I believe I did, something along those lines. It’s worse, but not by that much. Of course each xG model has its own criteria, mine is not based solely on shots for example as they are flawed. I’m happy with what I use and the conclusions I draw from it, it works well. There’s not a chance in hell I share it with you pal. Nice try though.

Again, nothing personal with me. You and your bully mates on here can scoff at me all you like, Im sitting pretty with Burnley relegation sitting at 1.65 with the bookies. Have a good day sir.

They weren't PM's they were replies to your posts, for which you should have received notifications. HERE is the first time I asked you to show your work when you stated that Burnley's xG isn't much different from last year, despite every publicly available model showing that it is. What makes your model better than understat for example and what evidence do you have that it is better?

Nothing personal with me either, I just don't like being ignored and think that when someone makes a statement they should be willing and able to back it up with evidence.
