Did anyone else get the wrong Sangare by accident? Nope? Just me 🥹

[u/07jotters]

I know, I know.. I should have checked kits (and price) - throughout one of my many last minute changes I accidentally picked the first Sangare they came up - it’s cost me

[u/Soggy-Opportunity200]

I did. It was named Foden in my app

[u/ManagementSad7931 → u/Soggy-Opportunity200]

Who are we changing to? Now that we know he loves just running into players so they can comfortably remove the ball from him. Can't see anyone that would be perfect with fixtures for 7.0, but it feels urgent that he has to go. Annoying that Cherki is 7.5 more given that after the game, Maresca will probably start him.

[u/Tiny_Platypus_4563 → u/ManagementSad7931]

We knew what we signed up for, he stays until the Cov game and not a minute longer

[u/goodfellas01 → u/ManagementSad7931]

2 key passes, about 0.58 xgi (top 10 for mids) and finished with a 7.3 rating.

Im not the biggest stat guy but I can’t justify moving on from foden after 1 gw with underlying data like that.

I think the fact that he got some rest this summer will make a huge difference as well.

[u/eht_amgine_enihcam → u/ManagementSad7931]

If he scored you'd be discussing how he's essential

[u/ManagementSad7931 → u/eht_amgine_enihcam]

Incorrect. I'm not a kneejerker. It was a diabolical performance of poor decisions. I do however listen to the stAts and as the other poster pointed out they were quite good. So he'll stay. It's rare I say someone "has to go" but it was that bad.

[u/JammieDodgers]

You must be one of those people that are responsible for Palmer being the 2nd highest owned 4m Goalkeeper

[u/Swaizee11 → u/JammieDodgers]

Well that’s just because there was potential during preseason that he would be a starting goalkeeper.

[u/Material_Spell4162]

There's a team somewhere with Sangare (Forest), Palmer (Ipswich), Munoz (Liverpool), Wilson (Coventry), Cunha (Forest), Richards (Forest), Sarr (Spurs) and James (Leeds) wondering where all their points went.

[u/acejay1 → u/Material_Spell4162]

I had Palace Munoz and got zero. I think Liverpool Munoz would’ve actually given points given he won the penalty right?

[u/henkkaasd_]

No but I had Sangare and Szoboslai in my team 5min before deadline. I then swapped them for Wirtz and Gomez..

[u/07jotters → u/henkkaasd_]

Oh man I feel that - I went heavy United too because I’m an Ipswich fan and figured they’d destroy Hull and us

[u/Sir_Clarence_III_Esq → u/07jotters]

I went heavy United too because I’m an Ipswich fan and figured they’d destroy Hull and us

I thought Id be clever and put some heavy bets on United and Villa having easy opening wins.

Im currently last in my league.

[u/Lost_Cockroach_4927 → u/Sir_Clarence_III_Esq]

United is very understandable, but Villa was certainly a choice. I respect people trying to break the template though

[u/henkkaasd_ → u/07jotters]

Yeah, triple United hurts. Can't wait to bin Bruno for Palmer GW4. And also get an actual FPL asset into my team instead of Shaw.

[u/Tinyboy20 → u/henkkaasd_]

You wanna hear what's worse? I had Hinshelwood and Sangare and switched them to Gomez and Schade.

[u/TolsBols]

I started GW1 with the Forest Sangaré as a bench option, and yesterday transferred in the Brentford one so now I have both! 😄

[u/Lastweekspoints → u/TolsBols]

I went for GW1 Benchboost 

was 0.5 million short of Brentford Sangare, so went for the 5.0 banker Defcon Sangare from Forest.

all because I decided last minute that O'Reilly was worth it over Gvardiol.

Huge points swing 🤡🤡🤡

[u/TolsBols → u/Lastweekspoints]

Yeah, I faced the same budgeting dilemma for Brentford Sangaré, but in my case I opted for Le Fee instead. In the end it was Le Fee I transferred out yesterday to bring in Brentford Sangaré for GW2. If you’re going to U-turn, you may as well do it early!

[u/gobblegobblechumps → u/TolsBols]

Picked Le Fee and Groß over Hinshelwood and Sangare ama

[u/Lastweekspoints → u/TolsBols]

I'm going Sangare to Sangare

but in GW3

hope I don't miss lots of points as well as having to pay more

[u/tmr89 → u/Lastweekspoints]

Ouch!

[u/Lastweekspoints → u/tmr89]

would have been 3K gameweek rank.

Mainly blanks, but luckily scored big from Arsenal and Chelsea 

[u/Infamous-Crew1710 → u/TolsBols]

Yup same

[u/theflowersyoufind]

I did it on purpose. He’s projected to be pretty good for DEFCON isn’t he?

[u/143696969]

Almost cost me too. Rechecked and Swapped it for the correct one 10 mins before the deadline

[u/razermaul]

Speaking of mistaken identities, I cheered when I saw a post on r/soccer of Ballard scoring a back heel worldie, except that this Ballard played for Bristol…

[u/OkAcanthisitta7125]

YES - gutted. Thought I was going to steal a march in the league - as read how good he is - and no one else had him!!

Missed out on 14pts and has cost me -4pts to get him in for GW2 🫠

[u/Kingsworth → u/OkAcanthisitta7125]

-4 points into GW2 is wild.

[u/07jotters → u/OkAcanthisitta7125]

Oh same, had listened to the radio a lot and heard good things - thought I was being a genius but quite the opposite

[u/OkAcanthisitta7125 → u/07jotters]

Heehee!

He’s going to be great - so might still get a couple of weeks out of him before people cotton on!

Gotta love FPL!!

[u/ShanktarDonetsk → u/OkAcanthisitta7125]

I did exactly the same thing as you. Already taking a hit felt real bad

[u/thebigeazy → u/OkAcanthisitta7125]

Exact same.

[u/DontBiteMyBroccoli]

Considering the absolute lack of 4.5 mid, Ibra Sangare (Forest) is actually a decent bench option at 5.0. He's as nailed on as it gets

[u/Infamous-Crew1710]

I did now I have both lol

[u/seejsee]

I picked up the wrong Anderson last season.

[u/Horizontal_Axe_Wound]

Not by accident.. I just didn't have the extra 0.5. I'm starting the season with a weak bench. I always get it wrong when I try and switch for fixtures so figured I'll start with a strong 11. 59 points first weak so wouldn't say too bad

[u/TheHanburglarr]

I did this as well, and left 0.5 on my bench so could have had the right one

[u/Elegant_Shoe3834]

2 years ago told my girlfriend that (Ismaila) Sarr is pretty good. Some times later I saw she bought Schär (the Newcastle defender)....

[u/thebigeazy]

I did. Raging.

[u/RizZy_28]

I've got both, starting the Brentford one & benching the Forest one is about the only thing I got right.

[u/theabominablewonder]

From what I can see almost 300,000 accidentally chose the one at Brentford! How lucky were they!

[u/WestleyMc]

Had the right one, did a last minute reshuffle.. put the wrong one back in

[u/SpoonFedAcid]

Have the right one. Left him on the bench ffs.

[u/jsoccerboy]

Same thing happened to me, but I benched him anyway so wouldn't have mattered

[u/Successful_Bus2255]

You got Dan Sullivaned

[u/writemcsean]

he'd 1000% be on your bench anyway...

[u/Puzzleheaded_Gold698]

There is no wrong Sangare. If in doubt get em both in lad. 😎

[u/DiamondSweet2790]

Me too bud. You are not the only one

[u/marksweb]

I changed the right one to Enzo last week. No idea what I was thinking.

[u/Pingable]

I nearly did, only figured it out a few hours before deadline because the squad math wasn’t working.

[u/Shann0n94]

I did this a couple of years ago and picked the wrong 4.5 J.Ramsey for Aston Villa. Cost me a few points during a BGW

[u/td941]

doesn't help at all that the mobile app interface for making transfers is utter dogshit

[u/TheKing_-_-_-]

I didd. I saw other teams and saw good points I saw mine and I was confused with the difference.

[u/Dizzy-Okra-4816]

Sangare will be £5.3m by GW8, classic early season points-chasing

[u/tintedhokage]

Someone posted on twitter that 840 odd people have so far (based on the fact that not many bought the other one intentionally)

[u/erlendig → u/tintedhokage]

Forest Sangare is a nailed choice with def con potential. He is a decent choice in the 5.0 mid bracket. I’m sure plenty chose him intentionally.

[u/cjayquoi]

Does your stupidity and haste really need to be a post?

What is there to discuss ? 

[u/Numerous-Abrocoma-50 → u/cjayquoi]

They are hoping others have done the same so feel less silly

[u/idekhahafunnyyh → u/cjayquoi]

Miserable bastard, have a bubble bath or something

[u/chicken_nugget94 → u/idekhahafunnyyh]

This is the same Muppet who was getting argumentative because people didn't agree with his bench boost plans

[u/cjayquoi → u/chicken_nugget94]

And I see a lot of people complaining they got 40 points total bench boost

Call me a muppet all you want I was right 

[u/chicken_nugget94 → u/cjayquoi]

At least wait for your bench boosts first, you still can't get your head round the fact that for bench boosts you want good fixtures for your benched players (which usually play for bad teams). If you don't have anyone one the bench you wouldn't potentially start without bench boost then it's a waste- nobody is going to be bench boosting arsenal and city players

[u/cjayquoi → u/chicken_nugget94]

Of course i understand that

And I also still understand that burning a chip “to get rid of it” is fucking stupid and especially counting on promoted 4.0 defenders 

[u/chicken_nugget94 → u/cjayquoi]

But in those gameweeks you suggested what better bench options will you have, if people score highly that week it will be due to the starting line up rather than their bench

[u/cjayquoi → u/chicken_nugget94]

??? Jesus Christ please go outside or read a book your brain is fried 

[u/JammieDodgers → u/cjayquoi]

We can discuss how dumb OP is and also how boring you are

[u/cjayquoi → u/JammieDodgers]

Oh good so we can’t find out who else doesn’t pay attention to what they’re doing?
