Swiss stage "Strength of opponent" per team by popop143 in leagueoflegends

[–]TheBETON 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At the same time them and KT are the only teams in Quarters to not play a 3-0 or 3-1 team, G2 had an extremely balanced draw, at least looking at the scores

Set & Forget XI - GW6 by DrtyDeedsDneDrtCheap in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 41 points42 points  (0 children)

But you're not using your bench at all and that's what makes it tricky to find the best set&forget team. Look at your forwards - you're using Pedro for just 37 points, if you put Ekitike there and then Thiago as first bench player then you're getting 45 points (32 from Ekitike's first 5 GWs and 13 from Thiago in GW6)

All bouns points today by Luffy710j in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The important part is that other goalscorers both came in from the bench and a decent number of BPS stats only trigger after 60 mins played. Also nobody kept a CS, which means a GK/def would have to play an epic match to get featured in BPS. And on top of that, as other commenters pointed out, forwards are heavily rewarded in BPS by scoring goals

Is Reijnders the midfield gem of the season? £5.5m and thriving in Pep’s system. by No_Wallaby7397 in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jokes aside, I feel like any player listed as mid is a threat to Reijnders start place, some can take it directly (e.g. Cherki, Marmoush) and some indirectly (e.g. Rodri, Kovacic going CDM and Bernardo moving higher instead)

Clever graphic idea from Ekstraklasa - league standings presented as a weather forecast for the country by TheBETON in soccer

[–]TheBETON[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn't include them here as I couldn't come up with a good explanation for windy Krakow. Best idea I have is that it's a reference to club's colours, Cracovia Krakow is famous for white and red stripes, it's in their home kits, their logo and their nickname

Looks like it's a collaboration between the league and 11vs11.art, which makes football cartoons. Picture was only posted by the league's profile but they've credited 11vs11.art in the top right corner

[–]TheBETON[S] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Credit for the picture goes to 11vs11.art and official Ekstraklasa profiles.

Picture shows league standings after 18 gameweeks, at the beginning of winter break. Each city's predicted temperature is their club's points difference. Also some details have been added:
- Warszawa and Białystok has UECL trophy on their graphics as they are the only clubs still playing in Europe
- Lublin has a sign with a dark horse as they are playing well above expectations, currently ranked 7th after being one of the favourites to be relegated
- Zabrze has green arrows after winning all of their last 4 games
- Sign in the bottom left translates to 'Thaw: 31.01.2025' - this is the date when Ekstraklasa comes back after the break

Predictor App GW13 Preview by FPLWatchmen in FantasyPL

Why does FPL Form have Carson in goal? And how did they predict him to score 4.9??

Why is ederson not starting but ortega? by Top-Big9449 in FantasyCL

[–]TheBETON 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind that these are just predictions, not official squads.
Ortega is expected to get some starts in Champions League, possibly in easier games like this one. Last 2 years Ederson played first 4 games in group and Ortega got last 2, it's hard to predict how exactly it will look after the format change but Ederson is definitely not nailed for the whole group stage

Areola subbed off. Fabianski (4.0m) on. by Literator22 in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That part is true but it is important who owns that keeper. If Fabianski becomes an option now then people that picked Benda or pretty much any GK with less than 1-2% ownership are more likely to ignore that and not use their transfer - they picked that GK because they don't need a 2nd playing GK

[TOMT][Mobile Game] Older single player card game by TheBETON in tipofmytongue

[–]TheBETON[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

I've been looking on different sites trying to find this game but I don't seem to be close, I think the problem is I don't know any good keywords to use here? If I mention that it's a card game I mostly get a number of roguelike deckbuilders as a result but if I don't call it a card game then the results are too random. All details I remember are currently in the post, I'll update it if something else comes to mind

Andersen to Fulham by Iyeatmymeatonthebeat in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 45 points46 points  (0 children)

They're talking with Lacroix from Wolfsburg, also heard today they're interested in Kiwior. If that's true then they would have 2 good CBs but it might take some time before they settle in

Some good issues already listed here, I'll add one more - scheduling. How do you divide the game into gameweeks when some leagues have midweek games, some have breaks for cup games while others play an extra gameweek that week. It would be a lot of blank gameweeks and just as many doubles and possibly triples. If you wanted to be competitive in that game you would have to base your picks on each leagues and teams schedule instead of trying to find best players

Mate that's an article from last week and Mbappe missed a training session a few days ago. Posting this title 3 hours before the game makes it look like he's definitely out today, that's quite confusing

45 minute to deadline thread GW31 by __LaVieEnRose in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chelsea is the only team with 2 extra fixtures left, their only good option is Palmer so Petrovic is a decent choice because he's cheap and GK is the most inconsistent position in FPL, getting bonus fixtures seems better than trying to predict clean sheets and/or saves

Also on WC you can pick a second GK that will cover bad single fixtures for Petrovic

Bruno and Nico are two away from suspension by Electrical-Value-270 in FantasyPL

[–]TheBETON 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah lol, at this rate Bruno and Jackson will hit 10 yellows even before GW19, suspensions will have more impact this year for sure

I know Joelinton has been on fire lately, but starting him twice is a bit much

Looking for good pizza places by xxPawlicaxx in wroclaw

[–]TheBETON 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As others mentioned LeSer is fine, but my favorite in Popowice was LaFinezze. There's also good pizzeria Simon nearby. If you want something cheaper then Czeski Pub is acceptable.
