Isn't this a little bit knee-jerking? For example it's funny you mentioned Wan-Bissaka and not TAA. If one of them is a player who "could feature regardless of fixture for their potential attacking return", I think we all know which one it is. Hint: it's not Wan-Bissaka.

ahgree, Walker looked in great nick today....one to keep an eye on is Chilwell, future england cap in the reckoning for sure.....
Walker is great. He's full of energy, quick, strong, great defensively, but his balls into the box and creativity isn't convincing, Spurs let him go without batting an eyelid and for good reason, they had more creative fullbacks coming through.

I'm not keen on retaining Mahrez now. Silva might stay in the team and I think Sterling could have a monster season. Mendy is a beast of a player.

Full backs are the way forward I think a mixture of cheap and premium is the way forward. 90 points great start to the season. So many pre-season picks came good which is unique. Gutted I missed picking Pererya, PVA and Etheridge/Begovic and bench boosted I would have been on 126 :(

41/1247 In the forum league = 3.3%
16.6k overall / 4,555.2k who started gw1 (0.36%)

In proportion, 100+ scores were 9 times more frequent in Fiso than in overall fpl

sorry, incorrect data (although apparently no one read that as it got kept asked for after the data was out)

count now corrected

46 100+ GW1 scores in the FISO Forum League https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/lea ... 26/classic
out of 1273 GW1 entrants

46 / 1273 = 3.6%, which is 10 time more frequent than in FPL Overall

kudos to SUZYKINS 14th overall, who's not counted in the above stat as he's not in the Fiso Forum League
you can find him in 5AS Stokies https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/lea ... 38/classic (his FPL button not updated yet)
he got 29p from his 3 BBers (plus a non-playing GK) [pretty remarkable 101p even without that]

90 great start for me. The Wolves-Everton totally saved my GW. Still annoyed about Ben Davies over PVA but hey ho - Davies has the better fixture this week home at Fulham.

You must be joking - I have 2 Man City defenders in TFF and Ederson was giving me heart palpitations!

I'm doing my Fixture/Results grid again but it is now contained in the new Resources/Sidegames/Stats - Wiki/Annoucements/Links sticky - 1st post under Resources which I will bump, as per previous years, when I update it.

Hopefully the new thread has more useful stuff it - and also allows promotion of Sidegames and Leagues for a bit more visibility.

For ref the current entry for the Fixture/Results grid is
FPL Fixtures and Results Grid (RomynPG) - 201819 Provisional (14/06/18)

I’ll second that 😀

I’m thinking he might be a long lost relative of SuperHans maybe?

For reference, the full original post is here (worth reading in the entirety, it’s an excellent explanation of the rules)....am very much looking forward to the deep strategy (and exclusive shits) next 😀
