You cannot make this up. I stuck with Ibra through MatchDay 1, made him captain on 2 matchdays. Then I sold Ibra yesterday to get Ronaldo. Cost me 2 points for the extra transfer.
Ibra goes ahead and gets FOUR assists. Ronaldo, blank. Wtf man. #fantasyFootballProblems
Man, this week was really disappointing for me. Mainly because I forgot to change my captain from last week. I wanted to use Messi as captain (would have gotten 16 points) but I still had Ibra as captain (got 4 points). *facepalm*
Dreamfooty was decent though. Ronaldo hat trick, can't complain.
Too bad we can't see other teams yet. Apparently it's a glitch in the UCL game. Anyway, hoping for a better run this matchday. I did quite OK last matchday. At least compared to my Dreamfooty fortunes so far anyway.
Had to transfer out Vidic. Good thing there are free transfers every matchday
Yeah in this game a single point does matter. Especially since there are over 200, 000 players overall. I'm so pissed at myself for not switching the captaincy to Messi (from Ibra). I played it safe and kept it with Ibra and now it cost me 8 points, which would have leapfrogged me a couple of places.
Also Benfica kept a cleansheet but I should have known that Maxi Pereira is suspended. *facepalm*
Edit: teams are separated by more than 1-2 pts. I think it takes a while for all the data to be updated. But 1 point is still important in this game
How was your first (half) Matchday so far? For me, the good: - The Porto keeper kept a cleansheet - Ibra (captain) scored a goal - Holtby got an assist - Gillet (Anderlecht) also got a decent 4 points
The bad: - Cazorla didn't do much - I took out Pizcek last minute and he goes on to get an assist and a cleansheet. Fffuuu-
Also wondering whether to change my captain to Messi. Ibra will lose his double points of course. Depends on whether Messi will score more than 1 goal against Spartak (which is very much possible of course)
Less than 9 hours till it closes, so any last minute sign ups better do it now!
On a separate note, I'm really not feeling confident about my UCL team. It's weird, usually I'm so optimistic about my chances in fantasy football games (until the points trickle in). I think it's my midfield. Other than Ribery, the rest are from weaker teams or not guaranteed a start. My team is definitely defence and attack heavy.
Also, how do you guys rate AC Milan's chances? They got a not so difficult group but they seem to be struggling
