Going to wait until next week to see if I should drop the 4 points for multiple transfers. Went ahead and got Vorn. I know he's Swansea's keeper but he's absolutely dirt cheap at 4 mil and number 2 right now in the league. Recouped a huge 3 mil selling Hart for him. If he can make semi-decent points that 3 mil can get me a sweet arse striker or mid and make it totally worth it.

Unfortunately because I didn't take the 4 point hit and Moses looks to sit the bench I have to start Joey Barton. Which I lol'ed at.

Had Vorm last week because of his play against Shitty. The 4 he let in were not his fault and I was impressed with his play.

How many points can you get from a keeper who lets in 4 goals?

I think he actually earned points that game because of the amount of saves he made. I bought him for home games against lower sides. Made me 11 points last week. And at 4 mill he was a steal.

FC Anonymous did something last week I've never seen before. Scored 18 points with 11 players being active. Everyone earned either 1 or 2 points!!

Vorn is going to be my backup just because of his cost. I like having a great goalie of a top club like Pepe Reina.

I would have rather stayed with starting from Week 1, but it's a long season so I doubt it will matter much.

You get 1 free transfer a week. Each additional transfer cost you 4 points.

Can someone explain the bonuses? I played the whole season last year and never figured them out.

I'm not sure who makes the decision,but it is arbitrary in nature. Whomever is deemed to be the man of the match gets 3 bonus points. The second most influential gets 2 bonus points and the third gets 1 bonus point. These bonus points are awarded for every match that is played.

Just realized one of the more interesting aspects of the game is that your team value value fluctuates depending on something...not sure yet. But Suarez, Silva and Jarvis are now valued at 9.6, 9.6 and 6.1 respectively. Meaning you can make money by selling these guys...making buy low, sell high another interesting strategy in the season as a key to winning.

The more that people buy a player, the higher his value becomes. Thus, a player who has played well and been picked up by more people can have a higher value than when you acquired him.
