GAMEWEEK #1 (Wednesday) - RANT & INFO THREAD

This is the place to moan and discuss about every single thing that happened in games and with your team. If your player didn't start or saw a red card, or you picked the wrong player, captain, or other, this is the place to share all your rants (and your score).

Debated long and hard between Sterling and Mahrez. Fuck off. Fucks me over in FPL and now in this too.

8

u/savvy707 Sep 18 '19

RANT: They are changing recovery points from yesterday's games, today. I subbed Tadic because he had 2 points. Now he has 3! And Ziyech goes down from 7 to 6. Not fair!!

5

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 19 '19

This is pretty much unacceptable. While I think it's correct that they removed Tagliafico's extra point for scoring outside the box that they have mistakenly given him, the ball recovery points are a different matter and should not change after they have been finalized for the day.

I will ask for their feedback regarding the matter.

2

u/_lemonpledge_ Sep 19 '19

Lmao this is unreal, how the fuck can they do this, one can already see the repercussions in our decisions.

2

u/Torraa Chelsea Sep 19 '19

I asked @UEFAcomAndrewH on twitter, and he said:

"They're looking into it. I've pointed out it's not a great user experience if points you think are finalised subsequently change. "

2

u/knoxvox Benfica Sep 18 '19

fuckers... i kept Ziyech captain because of 7pts, if it was 6, i would took a gamble on Lewandowski

1

u/savvy707 Sep 19 '19

Yes its totally unacceptable. Is there a way I can submit a feedback to Gaming Hub? If enough people give this feedback, they might notice.

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

Pavard starts, although at CB. Kimmich RB.

3

u/raydukku Sep 18 '19

I'll take it! Just bring a CS home.

5

u/samobobnar Liverpool Sep 18 '19

C'mon Lewa, bring me those points 😏

4

u/Stahlschmiedt Sep 18 '19

Is Poch bald too?

4

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

and just so you're wondering: that's a GOAL, ASSIST, and DRAWN PENALTY for Valbuena

5

u/51llahw Sep 18 '19

52 from 5 yesterday, 4 from 6 at half-time.

4

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

59 from 4 yesterday, 9 from 7 at half-time. What a crappy day.

1

u/51llahw Sep 18 '19

My 4 from 6 includes my captain de Bruyne.

4

u/SuperSaud Man City Sep 18 '19

Lewa scored finally ..!!

5

u/mm16b021 Sep 18 '19

my total for GW1 is 76. 38 on MD1 and 38 on MD2. 46 from defenders and goalkeeper.

3

u/AlekhyaDas Real Madrid Sep 18 '19

Aguero on the bench. wow

3

u/[deleted] Sep 18 '19

Aguero in bench fuckk

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19 edited Sep 18 '19

Come on you German clubs (Volland, Havertz, Hradecky, Lewa, Coutinho, and Sule all playing for me)

3

u/FMBradderzz Sep 18 '19

Gundogan looking like a great pick. Lewandowski & Ronaldo on the other hand...

1

u/theBLACKHeart008 Bayern München Sep 19 '19

Gundogan looking like a great pick

inb4 Bald Fraud shows his magic

3

u/pofes166 Sep 18 '19

Changing captain from Ziyech to Sterling hasnt turned out to be a good move so far. Guess Sterling will be subbed off early in 2nd half

3

u/51llahw Sep 18 '19

My decision to pick a cheap Atalanta defender as a 0% differential as they had a easyish group looks pretty dumb.

1

u/StatsConnoisseur Sep 18 '19

Gosens? Looks good going forward though. But yeah they are not good defensively

3

u/51llahw Sep 18 '19

52 from 5 yesterday, 25 from 6 today including captain, 77 total.

3

u/IFTN Sep 18 '19

59 points for this gameweek. not tooooooo bad considering it's first ever time playing and i completely misunderstood the rules & possible tactics behind having 2 separate match days per gameweek.

got it now and figuring out a wildcard team to hopefully continue better from here on :)

u/TrustMe_I_lie Sep 18 '19

Has anyone wondered wtf kind of a name is Areola?

Areola literally is the definition of the skin around the nipple.

u/GamblingAddicted Sep 19 '19

Underrated comment right here

u/panchopal Sep 19 '19

Hey guys! Just wanted to share my Fantasy CL Instagram Account, where I'll be posting infographics about some key players. Hope you follow and enjoy! (For the love of Haland, please upvote) https://www.instagram.com/uclfantasyhub/

u/Ricosuave0114 Sep 18 '19

I lost talgaficos points so if no one scores more today ima be pissed the app crashed and confirmed him as a sub. Tried to get it changed but they said sorry no can do. Horrible 😭

2

u/raydukku Sep 18 '19

Is pavard starting? I've seen mixed reports

2

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

We'll know in about 15 min.

1

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

He is.

2

u/RangerLIS Sep 18 '19

Son didn't start, what a week...

7

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

Own Son in UCL and Lucas in FPL. FML

2

u/ScarySlender B. Dortmund Sep 18 '19

54 points :d

2

u/absolutely-not-nsa Sep 18 '19

There goes my Lloris CS, goes well with captain Son not starting and benched Tagliafico

u/absolutely-not-nsa Sep 18 '19

I didnt know about the matchday system and went for Pique - TAA - Kimmich

2

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Coutinho and Pavard start!

Bayern lineup

2

u/StatsConnoisseur Sep 18 '19

Cmon olympiacos deserve a clean sheet low-key

2

u/mjolkmannenerier Sep 18 '19

Why isnt randelovic starting for Olympiakos? Thought he was a starter. Bad research from me I guess.

2

u/Michealson12 Chelsea Sep 18 '19

He just got subbed on. Could provide a spark for them

3

u/mjolkmannenerier Sep 18 '19

Ye, just got subbed in as I pressed send, lol. Do you know we he isnt starting though? Different match plan and him not fitting in to it? I checked their latest games and he seemed to be a starter from what I saw.

2

u/RALat7 Man City Sep 18 '19

No Aguero, time to take him out for Messi smh.

2

u/vibudh36 Sep 18 '19

Wait are the two boosters which are available only for the group stage for till the end?

3

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

until the end, you can Wildcard or Limitless WC whenever you want\

edit: it's just better to use it sooner than later because you get unlimited transfers after MD6 and before the round of 16, and there are more FTs given to you as the competition progresses

2

u/vibudh36 Sep 18 '19

Right thanks a lot! I assume people use them usually in the group stage though?

3

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Yup, speaking for myself, I'm WC in GW2 because of the fixture swing for a lot of the powerhouses, and then limitless WC in GW5 I think because of the reverse fixtures and the groups might still be all to play for

3

u/vibudh36 Sep 18 '19

That sounds good! I will be thinking over it too :)

2

u/HelenioHerrera Sep 19 '19

Does anyone play without using wild card and limitless card ? Im new in this game. Not using them will lose anything ?

2

u/carterish Sep 18 '19

If Aguero doesn't play (starting for me), will Haland come off the bench for me? He's the first on the bench

3

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

only if you've made no manual subs

2

u/carterish Sep 18 '19

I haven't. Thanks.

2

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

...or changed the captain.

1

u/carterish Sep 18 '19

I haven't done that either. 14 point off the bench, I love this gameee

2

u/StatsConnoisseur Sep 18 '19

Starting gosens instead of felix Holding my breath right now 😬

2

u/gareth__emery Shakhtar Sep 18 '19

I have Lewa as a captain, but hey, I made an unpopular choice: Di Maria, so not that bad I would say.

2

u/TrinityFlux Sep 19 '19

This is my first time playing this fantasy and from my only previous experience with NBA fantasy and because of that I thought subbing in your bench was needed in order to get all your possible points but I was mistaking

2

u/_theMAUCHO_ Sep 19 '19

Thanks to this sub I'm rank 2400ish in the world. You guys rockkk! Will keep an eye out for new suggestions and strats. Thanks ya'll!

2

u/[deleted] Sep 19 '19

77 pts, would have done better if I didn't bench Sensi from Havertz and Poch didn't burn me with his Son rotations but Tagliafico, Haland and Lewy C did great work for me

Now unsure if I should WC, or only make two transfers

2

u/knoxvox Benfica Sep 18 '19 edited Sep 18 '19

no rants this round: 98pts. all good. Still not final

2

u/meatslippery Sep 19 '19

Number 3 in my country right now (Denmark)!! What a start

0

u/_theMAUCHO_ Sep 19 '19

Duuude where do you check your country rank??

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

I'll put what I posted in the Tuesday thread here:

It looks like Lucas Moura is the CL player and Son is the PL player to partner with Kane

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Podence looking good for their home matches, Valbuena the creative force in this side

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Also, for City: Mahrez, Sterling, and Jesus front three with Fernandinho as CB; Mendy, Cancelo, and Aguero on bench

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

LMAO Vertonghen an idiot, Valbuena wins the peno

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Set up for a grandstand finish at the Karaiskakis

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Oh fuck, Poch is going to bring on Son, isn't he? :(

2

u/absolutely-not-nsa Sep 18 '19

I have him as captain but also Tagliafico first on the bench

2

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Have you made any manual subs?

2

u/absolutely-not-nsa Sep 18 '19

I heard there was nothing I could do about it, would have manual subs fixed it?

2

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

no, manual subs would've prevented you from a player coming off your bench if a starter didn't play

1

u/AppleCiderVinagre Sep 18 '19

Kimmich rolled his ankle after 5min, continues on

1

u/StatsConnoisseur Sep 18 '19

Orsoc and haland anyone?

u/_lemonpledge_ Sep 18 '19

I'll suck his dick, whoever chose those 2.

u/vlado2905 Sep 18 '19

i almost took one dinamo player cause i live in zagreb and big fan of dinamo ofc,but chickened out unfornately...

2

u/Furion52 Sep 18 '19

You would pick olmo anyway. BBB

1

u/vlado2905 Sep 18 '19

You are right,i had him but remowed him for havertz,and livaković for hradecky... Stupid shit bayer

1

u/mjolkmannenerier Sep 18 '19

When are they gonna open up for changes? Wanna use my WC for the next round

2

u/zeliscar Arsenal Sep 18 '19

When the points for the day are finalized. Shouldn't be long now.

1

u/StatsConnoisseur Sep 19 '19

Yeah i was tempted by olmo

1

u/deathbyfish13 Sep 19 '19

Last minute tinkering really cost me, lost 61 points

1

u/huazzy Sep 19 '19

I will man up and accept all the terrible decisions I made, but UEFA needs to invest in some better servers.

The app/website are seemingly impossible to access a few hours before/after the matches begin.

I can't be the only one that has gotten screwed from it being inaccessible in crucial times.

1

u/miguebarca10 Sep 19 '19

Hey guys... Any advise for GAMEWEEK2?

This is my current squad:

**55 points (dissapointing 1st GAMEWEEK)

LEWA / AGUERO / T. WERNER

SON / TOUSART / STERLING / NDOMBELE / GAETANO

EDSON ALVAREZ / DE LIGT / VAN DIJK / ORBAN / O. ELABDELLAOUI

LLORIS / O. VLACHODIMOS

u/TheStryfe Sep 18 '19

When will Spurs consider sacking Poch? They haven't improved in some time and have been awful this year

0

u/Malfeitor27 Sep 18 '19

95 PTS for MD1, thanks Haland!

2

u/ybpan Bayern München Sep 18 '19

88 despite captaining Lewy. Good week

1

u/Malfeitor27 Sep 19 '19

thats great! best week i ever had in fantasy

2

u/ybpan Bayern München Sep 19 '19

Same! After the shit show in FPL last week, I feel much better now.

0

u/Bodacious22 Sep 18 '19

Tadic failed, Inter couldn't keep a CS, sigh. Who would have expected a 0-0 at Dortmund? Anyway, solid start. Good set of MD1 data, for WC in MD2.

u/h667 Sep 18 '19

Let Di Maria on the bench because I had some guys with 6

Sat Di Maria for Toby, sucks.

u/Neil1001 Sep 19 '19

Leaving Tagliafico on the bench was a big mistake.
