Well I figured thats standard and not the issue. The issue is using opta stats for developing picks when STATS INC uses different criteria for something like crosses. If I pick players that opta shows having a lot of crosses but stats inc has them at less crosses then its possible there would have been a better pick available if I had that info. Regularly seems crossing data is off.

Yeah definitely. Look at Trippier's profile for instance. He was credited with 2 crosses against QPR. The note at the bottom said he had "an impressive 13 crosses against QPR". The standard 11 cross discrepancy.

Wazzu, I don't think he is a must play, but you gotta get just the right guys in his place or it's bad imo. Soldado is also starting which means he may be farther from goal on average this game. He has played well there in the past though with about the same involvement around the box.

Mane is at ACON right? Just asking because he doesn't have the O next to his name like the other ACON guys

duck, I am right above you on the clean sheet tourney. I need some kind of production from kane & Hazard for a shot at first place.

Chelsea scoring for fun is ruining my lineup. I need harry kane to do something.

I have a nice little Costa/Oscar pairing in that clean sheet. AT least it should provide a little sweat for next few hours

Nuts in first I think. Glgl. Have a soton heavy lu that has a decent backdoor chance.

If I got a goal/assist from falcao/maria id be top 5. Heaton killing my other lu. ****ing burnley losing a 2 goal lead.

45 pts with 4 soton left. Drawing fairly live. Only way I dont have a good day is if newcastle goes off.

Used borini/moreno + ings/trip + knock or zaha as basis for all my lu and plugged in two luxury players from teams. Decided I didnt want to risk too much and left off chelsea whoops. Did well on the day tho.

Elia was a massive risk since all indicators had him not starting and with no equiv swaps it was super risky.

Heaton can also kindly **** off. Had extra salary so upgraded from mignolet to him im one of my better lu since I thought his ceiling would be higher and he'd be lesser owned. Whoops.

Hopefully dk stops full regarding and keeps raising prize pools.

Yeah the prize pools are frustrating. Idk why the $5 and $12 are so small. People just want to play big fields. If they made the PP like 4-5k it would be no problem to fill the $12.

I liked seeing the bigger 50/50s.
