FPL Daily: Liverpool win Carabao Cup as Jota and James return

Only rest was for League Cup before I imagine. Any FA fixtures are too important.

I can’t believe what happened to Kepa. Just most absurd thing ever. Feel really bad for him.

Maybe not for any penalty shoot out 😛

KWP Raph Adams

Coady jwp watkins

TAA, Mahrez, Adams.

(I wouldn't play without Cancelo though).

I have 11 of the same players and I have activated WC...

Not far off a good team. But feels like a nice idea to WC now and attack the back to back DGWs.

Or just limp through it WC after gw30.

Good spot to have all the chips!

If prices change and I miss out then Silva instead of Rudi I think.

Like it. Some risk with ASM injury and Mount rotation/injury but you gotta be ambitious sometimes. I’d consider Robbo over TAA - he’s been better to me and would be my preferred if I had one (I have both).

Do James and Mount now have a confirmed DGW ?

What is Foster squared?

I agree in principle but how much worse could it be?
They have too many injuries and that’s not changing.

Maybe a “safer” system but with the players not changing it’ll likely be narrower defeats.

I’m bummed. I hope they pull it together and stay up.

Any rumors on who is going to be the new manager?

They don't have a terrible squad (Llorente is a good defender, Dallas has shown he can be a very effective midfielder and Raphinha is clearly a top talent. But the spine of the team is missing and may be for the season so it may not be enough.

Nah i wouldn’t do it

How could you get that BB team without WC?

Mendy and Rudiger probably. Especially if Christensen is hurt.
Thiago maybe.

That’s about it for me.

I think the obvious ones are Mendy & Rudiger. I can’t easily get on either so I am thinking of punting on Havertz as he seems to be key to their attack right now..

B

Guimaraes seems a waste of a pick. So B for me. But with Martinelli over ESR maybe.

b

Yeah Martinelli and Willock

Foden -> Coutinho
Dennis -> Jimi
Tierny -> James

If I WC, I will most probably get the core of the team that you have. Except the fringe players that is, Weghorst, Livra, Dalot, Martinelli, DDG.

For this week, you can do Bowen -> Willock and bench Weghorst. If you have money left and willing to take a hit then maybe Dalot -> Rudiger and bench Dennis.

I think you can WC to set up for gw28 and 29 and the Chelsea double or triple you want (Rudiger and James minimum).

needs salah back
otherwise the front line could do with a boost

I have to actually see him run before I consider him back

Can’t remember ever seeing a player jog so much.. like a metronome

depends how many games are on in 30? the less games the less damage for non FH (potentially)

I prefer FH33

Sorry, but what's on GW33? A lot of doubles? Any link to who doubles?

Bid gap between your defense and midfield - will be exploited.

(Good looking squad)

decent
two things - not sure i would get james yet
well, i think that's it, even if i am not that keen on dennis as watford rarely score

Nice team.
Not sure if the money saved by excluding Liverpool full backs (Robertson and TAA) has actually improved the squad. I would think you might get a better squad by excluding Kane.

Tough. Probably Bowen

trap

Neither, imo.

Can't you combine? Sa & KWP would be optimal, but maybe outside your budget

Livra won't play both games I am nearly certain. That Pernaud guy is too good as well + KWP is nearly first name on the sheet but you have White on bench who has highest clean sheet odds.

Can't see how you can. Arsenal have a double in 29 and I'd want to keep Trent and Cancelo for the remainder of the season.

I would say you are good
if chelsea get a double, maybe get rudiger

Definitely lose Reguilon. If you can afford it I would get Rudiger. Otherwise maybe move to KWP?

That’s my plan! A -8 gets me
Foster*, Tierney, Broja*, Foden
Might do Foden > Mount for the extra -4 too.

decent plan
myself I am waiting a couple of weeks, or three

I like the plan, but note that Livramento can be benched in favor of Perraud. Not that it will happen, but a possibility. So, you could instead upgrade Livramento to Chelsea defender (Thiago or Rudiger, whoever you prefer). That also keeps White available for the Arsenal double gameweek - he also plays in GW30.

In my opinion, the BB is not that strong chip - it leaves you with an expensive bench and gives around 15-20 extra points. The more important question is, whether you will be happy with the team after the -12 hit. Do you need the players just for the BB chip? Or, do you really need those players on the pitch to navigate the next few gameweeks? In my opinion, the hit is justified if the answer to the later is yes.

thanks for the reply above
I think Silva is a risk but on wildcard ok and can change later if needed
Mount for me is a trap, they don't score enough goals and I think bur nor is a good time for rotation given they play 4 games each 3 days apart coming up

I'd prefer Sa over Ederson - might save you some $ and keeps a City spot open going forward. And maybe Ramsdale over Foster but that's me (lol and on my team).

Not a fan of Ederson. Too expensive for what he offers. If you have BB I'd consider getting a GW29 doubler along with Dubravka, and playing the BB.

I'd also steer clear of JWP and Broja personally if on wildcard. Maybe Jimi too.

I wouldn't get Bowen on WC. Raphinha, Coutinho or Saka over him imo.

I will get them on free hit I think

Broj has been starting every game yeah?
No idea on Livra/Perraud/KWP mix though.

Not an ITK, but I think Broja will feature in both games. However, I doubt Livramento will play both games, but I have no intention of scaring you out of picking Livra because it is perfectly plausible for Livra to start both games as well.

Depends on 2nd GK and other benchie. 4 points from those 2 the likely outcome.

FH30 available? If not, could WC28 to get some def + fwd who have DGW28/29 and don't blank on 30.

This is one of the best WC drafts I have seen with Kane up top. I wouldn't do this, but I like the combination and I appreciate the amount of thought that went in here to set up the team for 28-30.

I would concur those Norwich rotation fears. Double Chelsea vs no city is a big variance, which could go either way
Ramsay over Dewsbury-Hall for me
Would look for a Laca downgrade soon, still plenty of good mids like JWP Willock to take advantage of
