Kane missing for Spurs as Guardiola starts Grealish and Mahrez

nice price as well tbh, 6 mil was hard to ignore.

He also looks like he's going to play in Lingard's role which means he's effectively playing as a false 9 a lot (with Antonio moving wide) and might play up top whenever Antonio is injured.

Yeah true.
I’m just annoyed by the bloody spoon feeding. It’s a shame, the game and the world has changed. Guess I’m an old soul.

Had him in my pre-season team all week, then I got Coufal in and though t triple WHU too much and swapped for Buendia. Sometimes my brain is just irrational..

Is 1 goal 1 assist against Newcastle a clear indicator? Still early days albeit positive

Agree. One of the rarer times pre-season has genuinely helped out. I saw he was putting in some good involvement so decided to watch the Atalanta match despite the commentary. Was 100% sold on him after that match. Shot-happy, on the end of chances, in and around the box, creating chances (intentional or not!) - exactly what I wanted to see from an FPL player.

He was so involved that I considered just going with him and no Antonio, but the goal out of nowhere & Antonio's numbers when fit last season made me keep him (phew). In fairness, the lack of other options also helped that.

I took my eye off the ball on that one it was between Jota and Buendia for me. So it was never one of those I was going to get Benrahma decisions. I have 1m itb to absorb price changes think I will be OK until gw 3 between Benramha and Rafinha in for Greenwood. The more I think of it Benramha looks like the better pick with Palace that gameweek.

No I’m double jabbed.

No, but I do have Sancho in my team, with a few minutes under his belt, all set to be unleashed on Southampton. 😉

Too soon?

Need a walking stick?

B

B

Good question but I’d go with B also

I would go A because Dennis looked fantastic even though he is yellow flagged. Watford have great fixtures annoyed I did not have a clue about Dennis at 5m can mean lots of cash saved.

Plus wasn't Veltman a covid close contact will he play next gameweek. Vestergaard may mean that Amartey's time is up

Gilmour against Man City? Not sure about playing him. Even though Man City have poor 'form' 😀

Just Barnes to Ben maybe? I dont think you need to do anything tho, Toney has Palace

Toney has palace GW2, Barnes has Norwich GW3. Save FT.

Absolutely nothing wrong with your team. Id save and enjoy strengthening for GW3.

C

C

A. If your gw1 is not decent

I’d keep Barnes but if I had to it’s pogba. Gundogan has injured his shoulder

I'm thinking about this. Is Pogba nailed? I know he just got 4 assists)

Toney, only cause I have him...

Toney

Toney

Toney

Might be - depends who he's replacing.

They play a high line so I wouldn’t be surprised if son gets something out of them as well

Fail

Don't think Newcastle looked great either. Palace at least conceded 2 long shots.

Villa will learn their lesson from that defeat and with Watkins coming back they’ll be stronger for it, they’ve still got good fixtures

Yeah I feel great for picking admirer having Raph right up until the deadline.
Just a terrific pre season.

Congrats! Well done!

I had a gawk at your team. Your bench looks like the cheapest you could have but having two starters. Well played on that. Gives you loads of flexibility in your starting eleven.

As a United fan I'd say it's too early for Pogba. He is generally inconsistent and doesn't even always play that position. Leeds are a perfect opponent for United too

On a WC after int'l break, I would not go with either.

I wouldn’t go for either. Pig a has never been consistent and Greenwood is a rotation risk

Pogba starts well and then fizzles away so I would wait and see for now. Greenwood again is a wait and see also as we don’t know where he will play once everyone is back.

Pogba might just be a trap, he is not consistent

A

He can definitely sustain his performances but points for FPL I don’t know…

Martial?

He lacks motivation imo, a bit like Alli. When they believe they can win the league, you will probably get the best out of them, but when they lose faith, the party is over and their minds drift elsewhere

Pogba always has at the air of a hormonal sulky teenager.
It is a wonder France managed to get him playing consistently.
Roy Keane can't stick him at all! Nor Souness.

Will you want Gundo after GW2?

Gundo is not an option anyways at 7.5m when De Bruyne is in the team. And now might be injured also.

Just do it. You'll sweat whole week if you miss that now as its noy possible tommorrow.

Roll

Risky business going without Bruno. I almost did but now I'm very glad that I didn't! Well done on the points.

Is it a moNO team?

114 and a saved transfer would have been amazing. Top score without Bruno.

You need to link your team currently you have some Nigerian fella's team on 31 who captained Tielemans, had Castange, no Bruno, No Salah and no bench points bar 1 sub keeper point- Kane also on bench.

He’s just a dodgy pick with Daka in the mix.

I'd sell, even if he starts looks like they're all gonna be in and out and subbed early. Think of Leicester as man city, except with less points on offer

Its still easy to go for antonio etc.

In a few days its not east.

Go for it

Get rid - Vardy was great on Saturday. Watched whole game. You can see Rodgers plans to have Daka and Iheanacho as subs. Occasionally Iheanacho might start on the wings supporting Vardy or in a two. But it looks unlikely Leicester look extremely settled and were unlucky not to get more goals.

Just leave him on the bench until you wildcard

Why cucho and not Dennis? Asking as I’m thinking of getting Dennis in

No reason to hurry yet.

Lots of Man U fans who know their stuff about Pogba/greenwood so looking for your input

Same here, but i have greenwood already, so should i keep Mahrez 1 more gw or swap to Pogba

No way, Mahrez has NOR next.

Pogba xA was like 0.78... but got 4.

Overall I like Pogba but not for Mahrez this week. And I dont even like Mahrez!

I was tempted to go for Pogba for a hit but I'll pass the opportunity by. Spent weeks on my team and that analysis was for something more long term than chopping and changing.

Re. Pogs, Leeds are the perfect team for us to play so I'd hold off and wait a week.

Just hold

2

Yes

Easy

Need more Norwich. They have ManC next.

This is why you set and forget a goalkeeper

Easy. Sanchez

Sanchez of course

Yeah. Soucek more nailed & a constant threat

Well, many of us have been waiting for him to find his Brenform when he was part of the “BMW”. Saw it in pre season and I’m now very excited for his prospects.

I captained Soucek last season when he got a red. When he gets a run of form he seems unplayable - Fellaini 2.0

Definitely Toney, keeper depends if you wanna go template or aggressive.

A2

Sanchez Toney

A/B is tough. Raya is a nice differential, though Palace may go for it a bit more. Would start Toney.

R2D2 B2

What’s wrong with Barnes? Seems the easiest of holds for me
