Totally agree with this. My mini league with my mates there are a good percentage of us with Aguero and most of us captained him today.

Compare that to my work mini league which is the first year we've run it and hardly anyone had Aguero. I've been frustrated as I've been sitting behind three players who don't follow football, have hardly made any transfers and were captaining people like Kompany. They are now sitting with benches full of injured players and no Aguero.

I'll be leap frogging them all tonight to finally lead my works mini league. My other two mini leagues with mates who have been playing FPL for years are tighter but been edging in front all season.

Until now Aguero sucked and those who managed to Captain others such as Mahrez or Sanchez rose in ranks and made it to the top 10k, 1000 or even higher. Thus, it is no wonder so many of them at the top either don't have him at all atm, or have simply managed to get over the need to Captain him every GW. Those at the top atm have very small chances of being there at season's end, especially considering he crazy season we've had so far... they are not much of an example to follow. Play your own game!

The thing that frustrated me this week, is looking at my mini league 2-3 of the Agüero-less flying high managers wild carded to get him in this week. Surprisingly, when I had a quick glance it looked like one captained KDB, and two of them didn't both picking up Sánchez.

46k here. Would imagine some of the people around here who had better starts must be getting towards top 10k now.

Same here, 284k to 31k.

33 points was the average score today too. I'd have thought it would have been higher. Just goes to show what a differential captaining Aguero was.

And a lot of points to come off the bench, especially with Mahrez, for example not playing. I have 8 off the bench with 3 to play.

They will also be some who also captained Mahrez.

Were you asking me CK?

If so, I had Aguero (C) obviously, and KDB, Vardy, Payet.

Had Butland on the bench too, but still happy. :D

Yeah, I've got 7 off the bench, as well as three Man U/Arsenal to play. Hopefully that'll mean I don't fall too much from the current rank, depends on those Marhez vc's and what the Everton boys do.

Superb! I mentioned on another thread I jumped from 1.76m to 830k, after a decent but hardly outstanding 74 (-8) with 2 to come from the bench. My gameweek rank is in the 200ks which is still my best of the season by some distance.

Quite a remarkable Saturday. Started the day at 879k, by the end i'd jumped into 93k. Aguero, KDB, Payet, Vardy, Butland all to thank.

Martial & Darmian still to play.

Thanks, and well done to you also. :wink:

I find it funny and awesome that the majority of members here have for the most part all shared in the lows together, and now the highs. :lol:

Anyone would think we are all reading the same advice or something. :P

Interesting to see that hardly any of the top 50 prior to Saturday's matches captained Aguero (or probably didn't even own him). Now I look at the top 50 and almost all captained him. A bit of a changing of the guard this week.
