Which ‘fourth midfielder’ options have impressed so far this season?

I like B, but only because you get Haller in. I don't think you need to lose AWB. He'll be fine

His place to lose they were saying, I dunno though, Bellerin is pretty good.

Not a fan but too risky with Bellerin comign back imo

Heard Maitland-Niles could be moved into the midfield when Bellerin and tierney return

Don’t even bother given their defensive stats

Is the question is whether to for an Arsenal defender, then the answer is always NO.

Bellerin is scheduled to rejoin full training this month but assume that when eligible, the spot is his immediately. After that, AMN is backup/cup games or pretty low in the pecking order in the middle.

Emery has acknowledged he is inconsistent, I would put it at 50:50 right now. Regardless I wouldn’t be investing in the Arsenal defence, no large guarantee of clean sheets and a hard to predict back four

VVD to TAA and James to Ceballos/Mcginn?
Great team btw

James is a good pick but i’d Want Haller over Abraham

I’d want Trent in my fantasy life.

Thanks chaps

You need Trent in there mate.

And chuck in there Haller instead of Abraham, you’re sorted.

I have the exact same team but have Mane instead of Salah and Lanzini instead of Jame's and Taa instead of Vvd

B

B. Look at Agueros best season compared to Sterlings last two seasons. Feels like Sterling is just getting better too.

Aguero

B

B

Sterling

If I was dropping both Sterling and Salah I'd want a stronger all round squad, personally.

Its fine to do something like this if you are absolutely sure you wont rip up your team to get Sterling or Salah in when they haul. And they will haul.

Rather have Sterling over Aguero

Aguero and Pepe to Sterling and Vardy short term? Then could you afford Kelly to Lowton?

B looks solid

Yes imo. B

Yes

B

Depends on the rest of your team. This article goes over 4th mid options of which Daniel James appears the best pick. If you don't have Martial I'd go for him.

Can't you just lose perez this week then get TAA next week? You'll be gutted if VVD - who is nailed - scores this week

wait till the international games are over. Trent might play 180 mins and then gets benched for the Newcastle game

I’d WC to your current team

No

Robbo King to Ota Haller.

Yes WC needed....I count at least 5 if not 6 that need to go.......

If you have Salah, Sterling, KdB, Pukki, there's not a huge reason to WC.

Your team is mostly fine. Just get TAA and upgrade King and you're set.

That's a lovely wc team

A to spread the risk

A

A

A. Keeper is irrelevant

Cheers 😀

Sorry C is Soyuncu ***

I'd play A and B personally

Start AB

B for me

That's a tough one. Option A - majority of points will come from Aguero. Option B - almost all points will come from Salah. Option C - even contribution of points, however, less frequent major hauls. I would personally go for C, but it is a tough one to call.

A. But tough one

I wouldn't play Vestergaard this week. If you're feeling it, go for it.

Like both prefer A, firmino > Vardy GW9

B

Thanks all

A

B

b, but I dont like wood(And I'm assuming you own TAA)

B

Smart man

Good on them for sticking to their valuation but they priced out a lot of teams.

Hahaha

Depressing though as the Friday night game is shite

ffs template, except for Caballos maybe

Can you afford VVD to TAA by downgrading KDB to Pepe?

Very template.

It's fine. Ceballos is a fine pick and you have Cantwell as backup. TAA is obviously better than VvD but that 0.5m is hard to find.

Jota to King or Wesley. You're just short of getting Barnes.

Save

Jota to Wood

Otamendi

Digne

Both

Digne but decent case to get both.

I dunno - get the nailed guy maybe. 🙂

Digne

lundy

Lunds

Not me. I used BB in the first week, and wildcarded this week.

But I am at 4,513 overall which is way higher than I've ever been this early in the season. Even in my few really good years, I never started out great.

Brave bringing in Guilbert without much of a bench, Villa's manager hinted that it was Elmo's spot to lose a couple weeks ago. Started last 2 though so not sure how accurate those words are... we shall see

If you’ve taken a hit you’re now 50k at best 😉

10244 - no hits taken; no chips used

I am. Got lucky with my week 1 team. Got even better benching vvd for lundsturm week 2. Currently around 6k after capt sterling blanl, was around 1.3 k week 3

There is a Cron job script going around Reddit to do this.

Rather sterling than Aguero

Mcginn

Pepe's fixtures much better imo. Hard to compare him to anyone because we haven't seen much of him yet.

Son if you have to

Son. But lets see how well both do this week

Salah can haul in any game and will play every game.

Sounds like a plan if you don't mind losing a little money in the process.

City very capable of smashing Everton and Wolves.

I really don't think Europa league/mid table teams matter for city or Liverpool..they are miles ahead of the rest and can smash then any day of the week imo

Just stick with one they will score similarly

I'm captaining salah this week

At the end of the day if Salah(or Sterling) score a brace I go crazy until I get them in. As long as you don't mind staying away from him when he inevitably scores then sounds like a plan. I'd never do it or recommend it though

diop

If you are going to destroy your defense atleast do it with Burnley at the back.

Nice front 7, awful defence

Don’t see Liverpool fixtures merit double attack.

Take a look at how Bournemouth have 5 wide open defences in a row from 6. I’d get Wilson - bizarrely still falling after 4 returns from 4 and definite differential now - that allows you at least one decent defender.

Double Brighton defence is plain weird imo.

Very nice team actually

I'd go cheaper on abraham. Feels like he has been lucky whereas barnes should keep it up with his fixtures.

Gives you a little bit spare to fix one of those defenders
