Games FPL 25/26

[SM]

current rank is 182k
I’ve brought in Big Ange as AM for the love.
still got 2 transfers and not much to do with them. I’ll probably bring in a Bournemouth attacker and the other one will be dependent Isak news.
Salah will be captain.

our league is already wrapped up but there’s still a big cup final as SM continues his Spurs like quest for silverware against JCFC (I’m not sure who that is)

good luck everybody.

Geeze that's two cup finals I'm in without even realising it! I've basically checked out in this half of the season so maybe that's helping me in the Cups as I'm not taking any hits.

And that’s the final deadline!

Good luck everyone!

42pts to finish
1,157,986 Rank

Decent start but fell away.

 

[PoopingHindi]

64 points
165k OR
like Tso I started well but fell away. chip season was where it went downhill for me. (hopefully the AM is gone next season).

congrats to The High Table. see you all in a few months.

Worst ever finish in FPL, never inside the top 1m after the third week. I think the season being a fizzer with relegation/title/etc. done pretty early didn't help me maintain interest.

 

[Tippaz]

gw38: 68pts
overall: 1,272,083

using my WC in GW35 meant a whole heap of points wasted on my bench in the final rounds
highlighted by Pickford(11) and Mykolenko(9) in GW38
i managed to average 61pts per GW, which is 1pt better than last year
my ranking, however, was a lot worse (600k last year)... i was aiming for top 1m

the good: Salah(c) almost every week (including a monster triple during a DGW) + Mbeumo + Wood =
the bad: Glasner(AM) gave me nothing + my free hit gave me nothing + the revolving door of DEFs =

already looking forward to next season with a newly promoted Leeds

Finished just above 25K which was my best ranking for the year. Was 2.1million after GW6 so a good recovery. Thanks for all the chat during the year. See you next time. As an aside this was my highest ever points tally even higher than when I finished 846 in 20/21. Different chips of course.

20th in the BF league is disappointing.

I finished top in my work one. Some nice gloating rights.

I haven't been following the new rules but 8 chips??

They're overcomplicating the game.

Same chips, just get one for each half of the season

I don’t mind it. With no doubles/blanks to target it takes away some of the complications of chip strategy and keeps people engaged.

Glad the Assman is gone. It’s nice that they tried something but it’s even nicer that they realised it was shit.

 

[Chipmunk]

Yeah I get that it’s a personal style thing and I’m not saying it’s a bad idea.

More that the way I enjoy the game and how I play personally, the changes are putting me off. You can’t make changes that please everyone though. Apart from removing Ass Man

 

[Tso1967]

Good god

Good god

not a fan of this one.
what’s next? 5 FT’s before the big FA Cup blank?

It’s heading down a similar path to SuperCoach. I understand it’s done to keep more people engaged for longer but it removes some of the planning/strategy/decision making which is all part of the fun.

What’s next is assist and bonus systems also changed

The smart thing to do would be burn all available transfers in GW15.

 

[PoopingHindi]

yep.
hopefully there’s a fixture swing around that time and you can refresh your squad accordingly.
especially if you manage to bank a few transfers going into GW15.

 

[tigland]

GW1 BB will be very popular.

Bowen is a forward as well which is annoying

I interpreted it as 5 max transfers, not whatever you have plus 5. That would be madness.

 

[Tso1967]

FPL is OPEN

 

[tigland]

Anyone know why a low id is so important to many?

It's a tie breaker that is never really used.

Really? Never knew that

yeah but over the 2 weeks you could make 10 changes if you had the other transfers banked. it’s practically a wildcard.
