Dempsey goal was brutal, especially considering neagle missed a prime chance a little earlier. Cost me a pretty big chunk of change. Still had a great weekend tho otherwise. Annoyed payouts were late I would have made a lot sunday morning epl.

benteke being massively owned today is a little ridiculous. basically people backed into him due to not too many fwd choices today and he happened to run good.

day was defined by penalties and red cards unfortunately.

I played van Persie thinking it would be a sneaky play and it turned out he was 50% owned in my league, lol

his price point was close enough to falcao that everyone was likely to make sure they could play either.

benteke was an easy choice tho

i lost a bucketful today. oh well. was high on montero but didn't have him ahead of philips. coutinho is always overvalued in cash and today he paid off for people. opted for adam again ahead of downing who i originally had and that handful of points was the difference between being at least break even and losing most.

let us MLS though. espindola delivering so far and i have him linked with rolfe in one lineup.

MAHREZ

Only had him in 1/4 of lineups though. Everyone kinda forgot that he was a dfs beast the first half of the season. Nearly a must play. Everyone will be on Albrighton now.

Had mahrez in some gpps. Ndoye wqs a whiff. Benteke was the easiest fade ever. Sadly no good fwds today really so best lus were going to have a lot of leftover salary.

Thought soton would be a bit better defensivelt so I was cautious about him.

actually don't like him in cash at all. great for gpp though. vardy or albrighton are better options.

yeah i had too much bentekers. should have been super obvious. got tempted by extra salary and paid the price.

this is kind of tilting. have several lineups that did great but none will get top 10 in the big gpps. really need united players to poop in their pants out there. 11 gary linekers plz.

lol chicago fire that is all. granted ended with too much exposure to them and thats on me (went from just accam to 4x when accam didn't start). Too many of the other games were going to be high scoring to have that much exposure to a team offensively that's less than 1.5xG. RSL is the worst offensive team in the league so i don't mind having gk + d from chicago.

Been running absurdly bad regarding GKs on DK recently.

As a Fire supporter, I would've told you not to focus on them too much. They are a constant kick in the balls

It wasn't so much confidence in the fire, as it was confident that rsl is probably the worst team in the mls.

Up to 9 entries for MG 30k, and 4 for DK's 100k. Really would like to get 2-4 more for DK's at least so need to go hard on qualifiers this weekend as I really haven't been playing them enough.

Also apparently if you have 9 and win more than 10 total in the same slate for MG you get cash instead which is awesome given how much overlay there is.

**** you lukaku scoring a garbage time winner in a meaningless game. no idea why he was so highly owned either. basically eliminated any chance of a very big cash.

I had Lukaku, though it was more of a play against West Ham's defense which I have rated as one of the worst in the league. Unfortunately I whiffed on just about everyone else.

They have conceded less than 1 goal per game at home. Everton barely average 1 per game away. WHU concede an above average number of shots, but this is not in the top half of matchups even.

Think the Lukaku play is mostly just following the logic of fade Kane but use up all funds. The fade Kane/Austin play today should have involved left over money in most cases.

According to the data I use, only QPR, Leicester and Burnley have a worse xGA than West Ham. So I took a chance on Lukaku and definitely got lucky. I did not though take into account the home field, which I know is even more significant in soccer than other sports, so my analysis is not as good as I want it to be yet.

Home fields half a goal. Basically west ham was 3rd biggest fav to win to nil

Spurs/qpr were basically right at the same stats with stoke just behind.

Lukaku was highly owned because ppl backed into him due to lack of options. Bad cash play and meh gpp play. Austin was the better gpp play for that price and kinda had to play kane just to block since he has a high ceiling and his raw production still has him amongtst the top forwards.
