the dreaded 59
My plan was to do Mane to Salah (c) but now I don’t think I will.
Think Salah is rested for the bigger midweek game.16 mins.
He only needed 1 to score last night.
Might be similar to Brighton. 60 odd minutes. I'd take it to be honest.

90........... seconds
75mins. I think he would kick up a storm if Klopp didn’t start him, as he’s missed quite a bit of minutes in his last few PL games. If Liverpool are comfortably ahead against Fulham though Klopp will take him off to rest for Spurs.

He'll start and get taken off when the game is won. My guess: 70 minutes, one goal and one assist.

Salah kdb bruno podence (bissouma)
Watkins vardy dcl
2 ft.... 0.1m in bank what todoNot much, something with Podence?
Justin and Mitchell to 2 x 4.5s?Which 1s r best.
Bednarek, Targett, Alioski/Ayling?
will salah be benched whats the thoughts
No, he plays
I’m going to stick my neck out and say yes he will
From a fitness and fatigue point of view I just see no other reason to play him 90 minutes in the CLYeah. He will come on for a run out late on, but expecting him to be benched.
Nobody knows, bar Klopp.
In normal circumstances I would say it's extremely likely that he would be benched based on the gametime pattern of recent games.
However, the fact that he is coming back from COVID may mean he desperately needs gametime, to the point where even risking him for a full 90min in a pointless game makes sense. It doesn't seem as likely to me but it is possible.Not really sure, there are 2 ways you can look at it.
1. He'll be benched and given a rest ahead of a busy week where the Spurs game will be the big one.
2. He had an enforced rest due to covid and its part of him building back up. There are no reserve leagues any more so perhaps the thinking was giving him another 90 minutes in a lower standard game would be good for him.
What I do know is teams don't do much high intensity training as the season goes on so keeping players 'match fit' is done in competitive games.
I think he'll play and be pulled off when the game is safe but I wouldn't be surprised if he comes on for the last 20 minutes.
Not sure my speculation is much help.That’s the key. He didn’t have to exert himself much against Midgetland. It was more like a friendly game.
Are people only picking Bamford over Wilson due to the potential COVID issue or do we think he’s likely to get more points???
Substantially higher xG individually and for Leeds as a whole
Who needs xG when you know where the net is
8 goals none from pens suggests bamford knows where the net is
Similar points and ones slightly cheaper. BamFord has decent fixtures but Wilson’s gonna have the double, flip that coin
I could not afford Wilson.
Sheer number of chances Leeds create. Also, owning Wilson would mean having to watch Newcastle games.
This is the massive downside. That palace game was unbearable to watch, though it's quite a high when he still managed to haul
I'm looking to own both for the next 3 weeks. You could consider yourself very unfortunate to not come out of that period with a big smile on your face
I reckon Wilson will score more points in the long run because he takes pennies and needs less chances to score. I have both though.
Leeds better than Newcastle. They create more. Which definitely benefits Bamford.
Vardy dcl and watkins to bamford kane vardy?
Vardy out and in? Cheaper just to keep.
Should read wilson lol
Vary to Vardy is a waste
Even with Wilson no.

Chilwell | Reguilon | Dallas
Salah | KDB | B.Fernandes | Son | Grealish
DCL | Bamford
Forster | Targett | Brewster | Mitchell
All set? Midfield looks pretty undroppable unless someone injured/suspended.lovely stuff
Very nice team
Nothing ever stays the same though, as undroppable as things appear at a moment in time. KdB is a couple of blanks/low scoring games away from being dust. Salah is a benching or a couple of games away from being an issue. The perfect midfield has never existed because premiums live on the edge of being worth owningYeah, KDB is the one I’m still not 100% sold on for that price, although if he keeps this up it might be impossible not to have him.
As good as it gets
Very solid team
Lövely! What's your TV?

“I was in contact with Mo and he didn't have any issues, which is why he stayed on the pitch.”
How is this Quote relevant to anything
I assume left back get injured forced Klopp into keeping him on.
What are Jota owners planning to do with him after this week?
Personally I think Klopp still prefers the 433 and will use him to rest Mane/Firmino/Salah if and when needed.
I'm quite tempted to sell for Bowen next week.I'm probably moving Cancelo to Dallas this week which gives me an option to do Jota to Grealish the following week.
Not sure about Bowen, but Jota was always going to be a ship in the night.
I’ve trying to sell Bowen for ages 😆
Not many options around that price point amongst forwards or mids.
I'm not a fan of Wilson/Watkins alongside DCL & Bamford.
Bowen looks the best out of a bad bunch amongst mids considering I already have Grealish.Wilf, Gross, JWP, young Mason?
Not too inspiring.First 3 dont excite me too much tbh.
Bad fixtures for Palace, too much rotation at Brighton and JWP always flatters to deceive.
Mason could be a good pick if Cavani & Martial are out for a bit.
Still prefer Bowen over them as he's nailed, on set pieces, West Ham have good fixtures and he has decent stats.
I would keep tbh, atleast for this week.
Are you still doing that Vardy-Bamford move to afford Salah?Yes I am. Not overthinking this one. Want Salah long term.
Cool. I was pretty certain of doing that move but yesterday's game has created doubts again. Feels like he can be avoided for 3 more weeks.
I have to get rid of Ziyech and I already have KDB, Bruno, Jack & Jota. There's literally no other midfielder I want except Son maybe. Getting him in still feels like a no brainer to me.
He's a punt but keeping for next game
Selling for Grealish
Mccarthy
R.James Chillwell Justin
Kdb Salah (c) Bowen Grealish
Bamford Adams Vardy
Button Klich Targett Mitchell
Gtg?That'll do Reism1, that'll do.
Feels so boring and template but Mahrez, Vardy to Salah, Bamford? :/
Points are never boring. Yes.
What's the best Chip strategy for GW18,19?
I played my 1st WC GW8.
At the moment, I just own Soucek from WH.
Thanks.I just loiter round here till they spoon feed me.
Went off piste last year, didn't go well.
If not Liverpool players, who are the best captaincy options in your opinion?
Bam
Maybe Spurs boys
Survey says Harry/Son, Kevin, Vardy (personally wouldn't touch Jamie with yours though)
Son. Last time Spurs played Palace he scored a brace.
Spurs boys and Wilson
After Salah's 100 minutes last night, it feels now that taking a hit for him is the wrong move. Especially when it would involve taking out Son/Kane/Sterling for a hit before the game against Palace.
Who is the best captain now? Kane?Look up one
Yep, Kane then KDB in order for me currently. You without Salah?
No. I got him in early to be able to afford...
Would it really take a hit to go from Sterling to Salah? In that case yeah, not worth a hit to lose kane or son. I would say maybe to sterling though
Martinez
Cancelo | Chilwell | Creswell
Son | Jota | Bruno | Grealish

------------------------------------------------
Steer | Podence | Lamptey | Mitchell
A) Jota/Podence/Jesus -> KDB/Bissouma/Bamford (-8)
B) Jota/Podence/Jesus -> Sterling/Bissouma/Wilson(-8)
C) Jota/Podence/Jesus -> Salah/Reed/Bamford (-8)
D) None of the above and save the FTD
Thanks Reism
I really enjoyed the formatting here. Might have to copy it!
I like C the most, but an 8 point hit is a lotCheers Sam 🙂
Where I can find a detailed calendar with information about double gameweeks, etc.?
You can't
Ben Crellin on Twitter is your best bet for all those speculations.

Cancelo also should not be starred
Start Targett (wol) or Kilman (AVL) this gw? Thanks

0.5m itb., 2 free transfers
My mind is confused. I am planning a wildcard before gw 16. I would like to sell Jota, because his performances are not certain. Any ideas?
a) Kane + Jota > Ings + Grealish
b) Jota > JWP
c) Kane + Taylor > Wilson + Robertson
d) Taylor > Dallas
e) another optionI wouldn't do any of those. If you're going to be burning the FT move Nyland to a slightly more likely starter
Which one scores most?
A) Soucek + Vardy
B) Salah + Bamford (-4)
Wondering if worth doing ziyech to salah for - 4 or just save ft and play Soucek.B if Salah starts
Opinions please!
Not for this gw specifically but generally from GW16 onwards when Spurs fixtures are great.
Which combo would you prefer?
A) Grealish + Ings
B) Son + Watkins
Keeping a villa player covers the double/triple. I rate grealish over watkins.. But obviously Son has a very high ceiling but so does Ings? Ings is a bps machine.. really tough :/B
I'd do A personally. Ings will get 200+ points this season as will Grealish.
Thanks for the responses guys.
@Zimo - I'm leaning towards A currently because like you say, its very difficult to lose Grealish, he's on for a big season. And ings has proven he can also get 200pts. The fear of not owning highly owned Son makes B an option.. Watkins I'm not fussed on..
What time/day does the liverpool leaked team news come out.
Not sure it will help as liverpool play sunday 430pm. Leaked news comes out maybe 1.5hours or 2hours before kickoff. Wont help for any FPL decisions since its Sunday
Actually, the leaked news has come out a day early recently. But still... not gonna be enough to help us I think.
I doubt Klopp would have decided his line up before deadline tom considering the game is on Sunday.
6.31pm on Friday
Who will score more this week?
A. Cancelo vs mun
B. Dallas vs WHU
TaProbably Dallas. Hes being moved to RB, and he will get into good attacking spaces.
Hard to see Bruno not creating a goal for Utd. Cancelo may return attacking points so theres not much in it.Cancelo

Ryan
Dias Gabriel Zouma
KDB Soucek Jota Auba
DCL Jesus Wener
Martinez\AWB\Romeu\Mitchell
1FT 0.4 ITB Thoughts ?Wildcard
Already used it. :L
I don't know where to start
Auba is due a goal so I'll keep him. Thinking of taking Jesus out and maybe DCL ?
Haha what. Auba? Due a goal 😆 omg thankyou for making me laugh. I was having a kinda bad day.
Begin by identifying the biggest problems and the biggest problem I see is that arsenal are terrible and there is no sign yet of that abating.
I would prioritise auba, jesus, soucek (if he's a playing mid) and Jota. Just mess about and get who you can from salah, kane, bruno, son, grealish
Villa have two games in hand, city and united one, newcastle one. Pick the best players from those teams and the games in hand could help mitigate taking a heavy hit further down the line
I think this is a case where a -8 to -16 is likely to pay off over Christmas
Arsenal fan?
Nope man united :$ I know if I take him out he will score.
May as well get Willian
Dear God what is that team. Aahhhh. My eyesss. They burnnnn
this team is very very different! Good luck
Sorry to say but this squad a complete mess. I would take 3 consecutive -8 hits and totally revamp it. Those that need to be sold asap are Ryan, Gabriel, AWB, Aubameyang, Jesus, and possibly Werner too. Mitchell, Jota, and Romeu aren't exactly ideal either.
Gabriel and Werner could give him points still. Good fixtures for defence and attack respectively for each. Auba needs to go though as does Jota as does Jesus as does AWB
I've highlighted the problem players, that's all.
Yes Gabriel should be removed for James after the Burnley game. But take the -12 i have said below. Trust me you'll actually gain points on the 4 transfers in even with the hits
Do AWB and Auba to Robertson and Son. Maybe Jesus to Ings and Jota to Grealish too.
I'd take a -12 and do it right now.
Wow I'm getting rinsed lol This team got me a decent 69 points last week ! Thanks for the advice. I will stick with Auba and make him captain because I am 100% certain he will score if he starts. I will take your advice on Jesus though. May swap him firmino as he was rested this week.
Please don't get Firmino. Trust me. U want Ings or Wilson. I do hope Auba gives u something. Its just Arsenal have been really poor in Attack.
Okay I will go for Ings then.
Don't take any notice of all the abuse you're getting! I bet your rank is no worse than some of them. I like the way you have 14 active players. Don't need to get Villa in just yet for DGWs as you can use second wildcard after week 16, if team doing no good. With two City and one United you are well on the way to cover if they have DGW. Might be worth getting rid of Ryan with Ft, and getting 4.0gk. Then upgrade Mitchell next week to a better playing sub defender.
Prioritize the biggest issues and move from there. Auba has to go, I'd move him out for Salah or Mane (C). For funds remove AWB to a budget defender - Coufal a strong shout. Play Martinez over Ryan.
Otherwise you're in OK shape, Jesus could be an issue with Aguero returning but has excellent fixture after United and Werner vs Everton should be his final audition - see how he performs. Leave the defense alone and prioritize issues up the field.Thanks tamblings and flair. As a united fan I chose Auba over Bruno which in hindsight was big mistake. But I have a strong feeling he will score this week so will give him and werner one last chance. Jesus will go and I will bring in either Bamford\Wilson\Firmino.
Firmino is as good as dead as an option, he barely ever was.
Listen to the advice, because it's good.
Get Auba out ASAP for Salah. Downgrade Jesus to Bamford, Wilson or Watkins and upgrade your midfield. And upgrade to players who are actually scoring points and lots of them. If you don't act then I suspect this team will get battered over Christmas because so many players are out of form (jesus, Werner, auba) or rotation risks (,jesus, Jota)
You own two of the top TEN scoring players, and one of those is kurt Zouma. Fix that wholesale asapAuba is a proven goal scorer going through a tough run mainly due to his teams lack of creativity. I will give him one last chance. Werner also gets one last chance as he has looked good in the few matches I've seen him play. I will take your advice on Jesus as I only put him in last week vs Fulham and he didn't do much. May do Jesus to Wilson and will bring Salah in after the Spurs game.
The lack of creativity is still there. Why do u think he'll score? Even if he does he certainly won't justify his price.
At 12m you are not looking for a last chance goal, you are looking for heavy and sustained goalscoring based on many chances or being a brilliant clinical finisher. There is every chance this week that he grabs that goal. There is also an equal chance that any of the form hitters grab 2 or 3.
Martinez
Robertson Chilwell Cancelo Dallas
Fernandes Son KDB Grealish
DCL Bamford

1 FT, 1.9 itb
How’s this for a plan with fixtures in mind:
GW12: Fernandes >> Salah
GW13: Son Foden >> Soucek Fernandes
Thoughts?
ThanksI think I would save FT this week. Great team and Bruno will defo play and could easily get a pen or return.
Might as well just get Mane and swap back to Salah post Spurs. You need to have your Liverpool asset on the pitch for Fulham and I'd be concerned as a Salah/Jota owner

Best to just ship Ziyech for someone? if so who?
Thinking of doing a risky pick and trying make up some ground!!
1FT 0.1ITBPulisic. They don't come much riskier than him. Even when he's in the lineup, he might not play!
Zaha: fixtures not great, but his form's been good all season.
Foden replacements up to 7.1? Really not the most inspiring bunch. Not interested in Jota (rightly or wrongly, just having 8 weeks of Foden for 90 mins of football has scarred me and I'd rather someone nailed to start).
change formation?
Looking into a Trent and Robbo double up (4-4-2), but I think it's too soon for that
Some help here would be greatly appreciated....
A) Ziyech ----> Pulisic (free)
B) Ziyech & Jesus ----> Fernades & Bamford (-4pts)
C) Ziyech, Jesus & Coady -----> De Bruyne, Bamford & Dallas (-8pts)
Thanks!B is best long term
Would you rather have A or B?
