Been drifting downwards a bit recently while conserving transfers, but still pretty healthy...

44 > 1680 > 1338

10 transfers left.

This what the team currently looks like...
Moraes
Robertson / TAA / Doherty / Wan-Bissaka
Salah / Pogba / Sterling
Aguero / Rashford / Jimenez

Still chugging along quite nicely :)
95 > 1860 > 738

8 transfers left.

Ederson
Robertson, TAA, Doherty, Wan-Bissaka
Hazard, Sterling, Sane, Salah
Aguero, Jiminez

And, yes, I know I should have swapped Aguero out before now!

Another solid week. Went big for Liverpool over the run-in - after the City game I did Aguero :arrow: Mane, Ederson :arrow: Allison, Wan-Bissaka :arrow: Van Dijk. 5 transfers left.

70 > 1930 > 470

My best ever season-end position was just inside the top 500, so there's a chance I could top that this year :D

Up to 143rd but this season has been a massive missed opportunity for me. Looking forward to next season.

Hard taskmaster! Any particular opportunities you want to unburden?

64>1981>521 4 transfers left which I think I know what to do with! Hoping to nudge up a bit higher and overturn the current 2pt deficit in my £10 tournament league.

Up to 301st position as of this morning, which (for me at least) is nosebleed territory :D 4 transfers left.

60>2171>291 xfers spent. Last one on Kompany😁 Still climbing.

Some good single entrant Scores again. Would be good to take the multis out of their comfort zone and give them just one team to manage!!

53 > 2147 > 492

All transfers used, my final 11 is of course heavily City-biased due the extra games.

60pts from the Final sees me finish in 200th and highest position of the season. Won a £10 tournament league (£90) and 2nd place in mates league so more than happy with seasons work.

40 > 2239 > 593

Shame I didn't have a transfer left over to get Jesus in for Aguero yesterday, but still decent enough. Not my best ever finish, but very close, and won my mates league by a street mile. Got to be happy with that.

See you all next year :)

2298 > 145. A good score but could have been so much more. I had very high hopes going into Christmas but I did not make use of my 30 plus transfers after that. I hope next season is not dominated by City/Liverpool players. Well done all.

@norvern muppet, where are you?

I'm in as per usual, who else is flying the single entrant flag?

17pts to start for me so can't grumble, well apart from the keeper issue. :roll: :P

Conspicuous by his absence 🤔

I’ll be doing my usual pseudo-single entrant routine.

So I have just one “real team”, although it is set up as two teams which are clones of each other (same starting XI, same transfers throughout the season). One version is public (which is my mates league team), one is private (for the FPL/TFF combo league).

In addition I have two handicapped/specialist teams....an egg cup team, where you all get handed the same pretty ropy starting XI at the start of the season; plus a team for Murf’s highlander killer cup, which is a knockout format based on weekly scores, and typically means you will only make transfers in alternate weeks.

So just the one “normal” team, which is what I’ll be reporting on here.

My starting XI this year is
Ederson
Robertson / TAA / KWP / Zouma
Salah / Sterling / Martial / Lanzini / Jota
Jimenez

Good luck to one and all :D

Nice to see a different team Hog, although you'll need a very large sofa for spurs v villa and no Kane :D

Yeah, think the major difference with my team and the template on here is my Jimenez/Robertson vs Kane/Doherty (or similar). If you look at the points scored last year, my two are way better... although I know that’s a bit simplistic and doesn’t allow for fixture difficulty and the fact Kane was injured for some of the time. But yes, the sofa will be required for the Villa match :lol:

Just checked on Norvern Muppet and looks like he has stopped FISO-ing ☹️ In fact his last post on here was October last year, other than a few days in March when he was posting on the Poker pages.

Single entrant again. My aim this year is to have 20 transfers left by January. Never going to happen 😂 I normally make about 10 in the first 2 weeks so feel this is the most important!!

Hello again everyone, good to have the football back, the days of the mega multi-entrant are over :D

Like Hogmeister I'm rocking a 4-5-1, just can't seem to accommodate Mo, Raheem and spendy strikers without the rest of the team looking rubbish. I found it much harder this year and still think my team looks a bit rubbish, but will see how it starts and rip it apart in a panic if any of the big spendy strikers gets off to a flyer.

Ederson
TAA, Maguire, Coleman, Chilwell
Salah, Sterling, Maddison, Pulisic, Lanzini
Wilson

Good luck to all us singletons.
