Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
Tough call.
I lead 46-44. He has Sterling as captain and no bench should Sterling get a rest.
I also have Sterling but not as captain. I also have KdB.
So it is Sterling + KdB v Sterling + Sterling .
I have Greenwood first sub so some nice insurance.

Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
My opponent surfaced and put Salah C back into the team to go alongside Martial But I am 3 points up and we both have KDB ...wahine wrote: ↑26 Dec 2019, 01:11 this weeks team v wahine is deadish - i think , however its looking reasonable for this GW
Salah C is first E1 and KDB is VC, VVD Pulsic Martial Pukki and Abraham are popular picks that start for this team none of which I have and I have Vardy and 3 Spurs. but Salah C is always danagerous foe. so probably will be difficult for my team to win, I still don't know who to Captain, I am thinking stick with Rashford at home but burnt hand last GW with MU,
Rashford will have to go next week how did he have 95 points? I don't know...
but I also have Sterling .

Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
Leading in the cup 44 - 27 against my third dead team in a row but he has Sterling Capt and Zinchenko (Kelly's 2 from the bench if he doesn't come on) as his last chance saloon vs my KDB and Aguero. Lucky for me he has Martial stuck on his bench

TAA's haul see's me safely through with both of us having De Bruyne still to play.

Still in the cup.
Saudi opponent who was 123k in the world to start the week. I am 12 points clear with Jesus to play but he has KDB and Sterling. I think it's going to be very close. He has got Trent second on his bench as well remarkably.

Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
Lol Ederson gets sent off, Aguero is sacrificed, then a penalty that he would be his is poorly taken by Sterling who is now playing as striker. Sometimes I think the universe just conspires against me
Unless KDB can score, it looks like I’m going out
Now KDB is taken off. Yep, that’s me done.

Had a 15 point lead with today’s game to go.
We both had KDB but he had Patricio and Jimenez.
How have I gone out... sickener!

Rescued by Traore who was first on my bench and came on on for the ill Jesus. He had Trent on his bench. Got a dead team next up with Kane as captain.

playing against a decent team. He (or she) has Vardy as C and Sterling as VC. I brought Aguero C and Ings as differentials as i suspect Vardy to be benched. Coule be full lottery this week with rotations. Lets see.

Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
I guess most of the teams still in are pretty good, but having got myself up to a season high of 60k, I feel slightly unlucky to be drawn against someone ranked 50k. Honestly I like his team for this GW better than mine, so I'm not getting my hopes up!

Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
Cup wise i think its better to play decent teams. At least you can read your opponent better : there will be a track record of transfers and captain choices (sensible ones usually). The worst is playing a dead team with freak line ups that just happen to score massively when you play them, or someone whos going to pull a chip out of nowwhere.

Re: FPL Cup 2019/20
My opponent has got Dunk and Ings so he's had a cracking start. It's going to be mightily close again because a lot of his other players aren't playing. I have Kane but he's captained him so in a bit of a dilemma really. Will need at least a double digit haul from my captain Salah tomorrow to win I think.
I do love the Cup, they should do two a year.

Unless TAA and Mane are rested I am probably going to lose. Otherwise Jimenez and Pulisic have to outperform them.

If Salah blanks and Liverpool keep a clean sheet, I’ll probably be through. If Salah hauls, I’ll probably be out.
