Lanzini it is. There are definitely more players available, we're only six people. I think that or 8 is the ideal league size, especially since our league is H2H.

I think we should limit the draft to 8 people next year. Or run two separate draft groups.
With the lack of available players, there's usually little value in checking your team every week. Except during the transfer window when all the shit teams have first refusal
If we had 16 (as an example) we could do 2 drafts for the first 19 games and then re-draft with the top 4 teams in each league.
How would a redraft work?
Just like the first one, only with the top four from each "league".
Spent all week debating between captaining Kane or Aguero.
Typical.
Finished second in the draft and second in the mini league
It's a conspiracy
We hereby confer you the title of the best loser
Top 4 in both the draft and the standard league. Arsene eat your heart out.
Lost one of my friends league by a mere 20 points having lead all season (by 150 points at one stage) after sterling, as my triple captain, got a whopping three points in the recent double gw.
I came 6th in both. I'm the real Arsene here.
Is anyone interested in doing a draft again this year?
I don't particularly want to do the FPL draft and would rather try something like Fantrax: https://www.fantrax.com/fantasy/games/season-long/epl
Fantrax allows transfers mid season between teams, follows a more sensible scoring system and also gives every player a budget so it's not a set and forget like the official draft.
Yeah I don't mind.
FYI, FPL draft also has transfers this season.
Ah so they have. Still think FPL in draft format is limited in the number of players you can usefully use.
I'd play FPL draft but can't be arsed signing up for a different one.
We can do the FPL draft, and we can do this as well which is pretty user friendly.
Yeah, that looks good as well - mainly because the scoring system can be tweaked to make normal central midfielders and defenders to be viable options.
I just found the official FPL draft to be a bit pointless once everyone picked their players and there was little incentive to revisit during the season since the point scoring system was limited.
I played another league for money last year and worked on it a bit there was actually quite a bit that can be done during the season, I finished second which was largely down to picking up free agents at the right times. It depends on the size of the league really. If its too big you can't do anything. Depending on the numbers I'd consider 2 leagues for half a season and then redraft during the winter break.
Should we run the draft after the Lazio game?
Could it be an hour before the Lazio game? Will be in the air when the Lazio game kicks off.
I'm trying the code from last year, not working. Are we doing a fantasy league this year?
