$5 a month ? How did that work mate ?

My mate is with Optus and doesn't care for it, so we got the Fetch TV Mini which lets me have access to it through my home WiFi

Not a good start with City but still a W.

Also Optus fucked up the United V Bournemouth start so that didn't take them long.

Wat did they do mate ?

"we're experiencing technical difficulties. We'll be back shortly"

Not to surprised hey. I've given up on Epl coverage possibilities, together with whats on offer in BEIN sports and the ability to find video links to pretty much any game u want on the net, and then throw the HD cable into the pc/tv - never signing up to optus personally.
Plus Sbs is showing one live game each week.

F##k u optus !

What a start for me! Got 72 points and could and should have been much more but Man U had to be rubbish and not get a clean sheet.

Gonna get Adrian from West Ham in as GK as 8/9 of their next fixtures are very easy, i may even think of getting in Carroll in attack if my Rondon does not impress

So this is where the FPL action is.
I can't believe Optus are charging people for what is literally a live stream, not a live broadcast.
I can and have done that all weekend on my iPad for free. Fucked up company.

I just joined the league but not sure if my week1 points will be added? Finished the week on 82 points and ranked around 1.8k

Is it worth trying to reel in if u havent even created a team yet ? Totally dropped my bundle and couldnt put the team together in time across the weekend

Definitely worth it. 1 week isn't too bad and you have the luxury of having already seen the performers and flops

Yea exactly, keep in mind that the week 1 avg is probably around a low 30-40 pts and alot of people will be using their wildcards whereas you get to see the general set-up of teams without using anything up

@jstands, What a score! I am guessing that you have a full West Brom defence

absolute shocker of a start for me!

Lukaku didn't play and not a goal in sight

can someone explain the wildcard and boost things below the team selection

The wildcard allows you to make unlimited transfers until the next rounds deadline, you normally only get a single trade.
You get one wildcard to use now and another during the second half of the season

Bench Boost includes the points for the entire bench as well as your starting team
All Out Attack allows you to play the formation of 2-5-3
Triple Captain triples your captains score instead of the usual double

All the boosts last a single round and you can only use them one time during the entire season

superstar mate!

If you're going to talk fantasy can we please talk about the games week to week as well? I'm not going to play fantasy and created the thread so we could talk EPL. If not I don't mind lads just a mixture of both would suit me.

OOOOOOOOOO

how much better did Chelsea look last night?
Hazard looks on the way back to being a world beater and the Fabregas omission?

Hazard WAS up against an out of position Antonio though, but yea he is looking back in form after this match and his Euro displays

I really enjoyed watching Man City play though, Sagna and Clichy were both in the center of the field during attack while Fernandinho dropped back, I have not seen that type of formation in the EPL ever. Pogba, Ibra, Pep, etc. These transfers are going to make this season extremely interesting

Liverpool putting 4 passed Arsenal at the Emirates was my highlight

God I love Liverpool.

That Mane goal.. WOW!

Antonio will likely staying RB mate, was talk about it all pre season.

going to be very interesting, looking forward to seeing how Mourinho plays it after a few games, cant see Mhikitaran staying on the bench for long

I cannot fucking stand the scousers so won't praise them overly!

That was a hideous Arsenal back 4 so goals were expected, they have signed very well and will be pushing for top 3, if they can sort out their defence, Moreno is horrible at you know...defending...
