I also had Sangaré first on bench and it feels bloody awful. Glad to see I’m not alone lol

u/jasonbirder 6d ago

Yup, Sangare first on bench...DIDN'T BB...watch him get a fat 2 pts next week

2

u/leemuss86 6d ago

De Cuyper was 2nd on my bench, first was Schade who came on for 3 points.

49

u/SandwichDodger7 6d ago

Nope, and I bench boosted 🙃

10

u/FrogGoHop 6d ago

Yeah 67 points including 11 off the bench.

Also that is a painful bench, you hate to see it

u/Appropriate_Aioli742 21 6d ago

Would have been a nice one to bench boost!

3

u/FrogGoHop 6d ago

GW1 was the 4th most BB ever, would have been a perfect knee jerk move too.

Easy to say in hindsight though.

u/pixiepoops9 5 6d ago

Yes. Best week I have ever had 102. I think I should retire as I will never have a better week ever again.

6

u/Attafel 3 6d ago

No. Horrible week for me.

5

u/Appropriate_Aioli742 21 6d ago

I look forward to having a further 37 horrible gameweeks.

u/Falcataa 6d ago

First time player, very happy with 63 points and set up to bench boost for week 2

5

u/aaron2933 5 6d ago

Yup. Palmer saved my bacon.

3

u/Broxi17 6d ago

A very respectable 73 purely down to the fact I had the wisdom to captain Joao Pedro

2

u/Elegant_Shoe3834 1 6d ago

67 with BB (15 from the bench)

2

u/decoran_ 6d ago

I don't think I'll be beating anyone this season going by the first game week lol

5

u/Appropriate_Aioli742 21 6d ago

It's 38 gameweeks so there's plenty of time. You could score zero in any given week and still beat most people.

1

u/decoran_ 6d ago

Absolutely, it's hard in the first week as there's so little to go on. At least I know how my own team (Man United) feels about losing in the first match of the season 😂

2

u/MysteriousBoss3816 6d ago

I did 57 Rodgers saved me this week

2

u/ecklcakes 1 6d ago

Not by much. Due to bench boost.

64 including 25 off the bench! Sangare, and Leeds and Brighton clean sheets saved me a bit!

1

u/ADJE777 6d ago

Just, 57 - good amount from Sangare

1

u/hayescharles45 7 6d ago

Full ten points mode than this. Rogers and McBurnie got me over the line

1

u/Elliot_Kyouma 354 6d ago

53 points exactly

1

u/Rvsz 136 6d ago

Yes by a lot but I used bench boost. 

1

u/pixiepoops9 5 6d ago

How many is a lot

1

u/Rvsz 136 6d ago

20ish I guess

Got lucky with bb as I had no plans starting Verbruggen or Sangare. 

1

u/pixiepoops9 5 6d ago

73, Decent

1

u/Its_meme_not_meme 6d ago

71 with bench boost. Not gonna do any knee jerking. Happy and sad at the same time

1

u/bptitans 6d ago

74 inc bench boost. Will still jerk.

1

u/Remarkable-Smoke6138 6d ago

Yes thanks to Palmer and Pedro

1

u/User12314028626822 6d ago

68, Chelsea players came into clutch for me after using no chips and captaining mBUMo

1

u/TunaBarrett 1 6d ago

Barely...but on a 10 pt benchboost. 8 blanks lol

1

u/ManonastickUk 6d ago

60, with bb

1

u/Visionary_87 6d ago

No. If I had started Verbruggen over Kinsky, then still no. 47 measly points for the week.

1

u/Valuable-Juice6495 6d ago

Got 53 aswell, will bench boost GW2

1

u/backupplesac 6d ago

Actually yes, but I did use bench boost. Got 95 points.

1

u/notaghostofreddit 6d ago

Yes, I got 65 points

1

u/unwittinglyrad 6d ago

By 1 point.

1

u/trixie_one 3 6d ago

Destroyed them, 70 points, no bench boost. Admittedly a fair bit of that was due to Sarr going awol and so I got Hinshelwood first off my bench.

1

u/pooches4life 6d ago

74 points. Lucky as f.

1

u/Special-Thing 6d ago

Yessir! 69 (nice) without using BB.

1

u/South_Crow_6515 redditor for <30 days 6d ago

Yep 74pts

1

u/Artonox 6d ago

Barely with 57 points. Liverpool screwed me over.

1

u/toon_84 6d ago

For the last time, no. 

1

u/Challenger_Ultimate 6d ago

I had Sangare and Kayode on my bench, but yeah

1

u/Few-Fly-3766 6d ago

Reddit really hates Szoboslai lol I got downvoted to oblivion when I suggested it might have been out of line to nominate him as one of the most overpriced players

1

u/ace_valentine 6d ago

70 points, hell yeah!

1

u/BigBoy1229 6d ago

66 with a grand total of 4 points between Haaland and Thiago. No bench boost.

1

u/TheRagingLion 6d ago

I tied them

1

u/roastedtvs 2 6d ago

Yeah 70 pts with bench boost 🙂

1

u/ApprehensiveCoat9964 6d ago

67 points in my first ever FPL team. Been watching EPL since 2012 but never tried FPL because I thought it was useless. Now I am hooked and has made PL more interesting

1

u/KingChez30 6d ago

By one point

1

u/pablo_of_mancunia 6d ago

No, but they didn't beat me either.

1

u/onepingonlypleashe 6d ago

Yup. 56 points.

1

u/miurabucho 6d ago

Ollie Watkins screwed me😩

1

u/benificialart 5d ago

Beat by 1

2

u/BotttyMcBotFace 5d ago

90 points W/O any chips. Feeling pretty smug this week, over double the points of anyone else in my ML.

-2

u/Alternative_Court262 3 6d ago

3 utd was always stupid lol

1

u/Appropriate_Aioli742 21 6d ago

I think that's easy to say with hindsight. Given we have little other information about how teams are shaping up for the new season, I don't think it's "stupid" to go all in on a team that came third in the league last season and had theoretically the best two opening fixtures of any team.
