EPL [Premier] League Dreamteam - 2023-24

[go you pups]

First week of the eliminator I was lucky to scrape through after a shocker of a week, my opponent only had about 6-7 scoring players & I only won by 16pts. Guess due to that I had a harder opponent this week, then smoked him lol.

I’m at about 200 overall but might focus trades on the eliminator rather than league wins, but hopefully my team is strong enough for both. One league I’m in may be full of potatoes, but I’ve won 21 games straight lol.

Not sure how many posters are in the BF league & how many are randoms, but looks ranked 17th best league in the comp which is great

There's a couple of us in the BF league ranked around that top 200 which helps the league ranking

The matchday between Boxing Day and New Years where Spurs got rolled by Wolves stuffed me bigtime, only scored 86 I think and subsequently plummeted about ten spots to 33rd, while I also fell 5 spots on Boxing Day even though I scored 150, looks like it was the highest scoring round of the season and par was around 170-180 probably, so I missed out there, like normal.

Had an ok week this week up 5 spots to 28th but I'm no chance getting back in the top ten now unless them Ryan Fraser, VVD, Allison types who I don't have all spud up or get injuries.

If you’re like me and don’t have Pogba you may as well not play anymore. Like not having titch last year.

Pogba was inconsistent before Solskjaer came in

De Gea can gagf too

Had them both in my side when they were cheap and did **** all

I don't trust them, wait til the honeymoon period is over and CL starts again

gw 22: 92pts
overall: 810th
trades left: 17

shortlist = KDB + Walker
i also sold Pogba just before he exploded into form... so frustrating

Harry Kane out until March. Typical

Guess I'll bring back Aguero, but he will fall in price I think, so might play 4-4-2/3-5-2 for a week or two and wait for Aguero to come down a little

Build more cash reserves for injuries/tactical trades with cup byes likely to pop up eventually

Jesus seems to be the favoured striker at City currently. better off playing 3-5-2 and getting strong midfielder.

Don't need anymore mids and I'm absolutely not chasing serial burnman Pogba

Already got Hazard, Sterling, Dilva, Eriksen and Alli

Only ones I'd consider for injury trades are Fraser and Siggy depending on their draw, but the main problem at the moment is who gets rested? 4-4-2 is the safest formation, but you're relying heavily down back for points and they don't always come

Imo Jesus is easing Aguero back in as Aguero had that soft tissue issue himself like a month ago

 

[Plugger35]

I've traded Kane for Rashford who has been in good form lately, decided to pass on bringing back Aguero as he isn't a guaranteed starter at the moment.

Thought I’d be too strong in the eliminator, gonna need a miracle to win.
He even has both Chilwell & Digne with minus points! Ward-Prowse, Pogba & Sigurdsson all scored for him, DDG & VVD blanked for me. I hate this game.

Auba, Laporte, Sane, Alderweireld & Alli need to score about 40pts more than Lacazette & Ederson

Eliminator starting this late into the season is pathetic

Won first game with a putrid 86-61 against a ghost ship

Lost 133-144 the next week and ranked high that week too..........

 

[Plugger35]

I've got Bellerin's 19 points wasted on the bench as I didn't think he was back this week, at least Salah delivered as captain and Rashford scored.

Looks like Bellerin did his ACL

I'll have to look at trading him if that's the case, at least he should rise in price after this week's score.

 

[ossie_21]

Burnt a trade (effectively 2 as I probably need to bring someone else in) to get Sokratis’ 19pts off my bench. Thankfully Alli scored, so still in the eliminator mostly thanks to Sane’s good game. Helped me get a few league wins & move up in the rankings too

 

[Tippaz]

gw 23: 146pts
overall: 709th
trades left: 15

Walker on the bench
will probably do DDG -> Alisson either this week or next
also Eriksen -> KDB/Silva,D too

 

[Plugger35]

Dele Alli ruled out until March with a hamstring injury, Tottenham players cursed at the moment.

 

[ossie_21]

Absolutely awful week & only dropped 20 places, surprised by that. Out of the eliminator, in my whole team Auba & Aguero were about the only credible players

 

[Tippaz]

gw 24: 76pts
overall: 705th
trades left: 14

Auba + Aguero + Siggy =
everyone else =
DDG -> Alisson =

 

[Plugger35]

Yeah that was a disastrous round, only had 2 players score double figures, my 3 defenders and goalkeeper scored a total of 3 points and I made Salah captain.

Lost my BF league match by 4 points when I was projected to win comfortably.

 

[Falchoon]

I thought my 85 was disastrous but it was enough to scrape home in the eliminator by 1 point and win all 6 leagues!

Also hit top spot in the bigfooty league




Posting for posterity, as trade situation is dire.

 

[ossie_21]

I was wanting to hold off trades but injuries now hitting hard. Might need to use up trades to have players readily available for when double game weeks come & players could be injured, suspended or rotated/rested.

Only 12 trades left and over $13m available, but have 2 non-playing players in the squad, an injured Alli & players at risk of being rotated in such as all my Man City players lol. Laporte is pretty much a lock, but have Walker, Sane, Sterling & Aguero too.

 

[Falchoon]

Looks like for the 2nd week in a row I've won the eliminator by 1 point.

He played 1 short with Sane missing, with 3 defenders on the bench - which is good validation of my giving Sane the arse because Man City players are unreliable, I played the percentages leaving Pogba on the bench with Saha out, going back to 1 on the bench in defence. I'm not keen enough on getting up early to check team selections and having 11 players play is priority no.1.

Short week this week, so not keen on trading which will leave me vulnerable in the short term

gw 25: 134pts
overall: 727th
trades left: 13

Aguero + Hazard =
Salah(c) + Sane donut =

 

[Plugger35]

I picked a good round to trade Aguero back in but I should have made him or Hazard captain ahead of Salah.

Just 10 trades left so I need to save them for long term injuries/suspensions.
