Ederson will give you a pain in your temple and it won't go away until you wc him out in a couple of months.

Being bullied by members of the community.

No difference (except you can use a chip this gw)

Because its not technically a WC, transfers made now will count against your OR (for tied scores)

The main drawback is losing team value. Say for example you bought Martinelli at 6.0 and now he's 6.8, you could sell him at 6.4 making a 0.4 profit but if at deadline day you decided you want him back, you'd have to get him at 6.8 and not the 6.4 you sold him for losing 0.4 and thus it would have been better to just keep him rather than toying around by selling him and buying him back.
In terms of wildcard and unlimited transfers there's not much difference other than team value really for various teams and the fact that prices are locked.

Hit send by accident. How is this looking?

Wilson's perennial fitness issues will almost certainly mean he misses a few games. I would like a slightly stronger bench personally to manage these gaps, but I think he's an excellent pick nonetheless. Foden could give you the same kind of issues, and I'm so over Zaha, but the rest looks good

Some dodgy maths there (30% having your team). Check here for a more accurate %:
https://www.livefpl.net/combos

The following combination contains ten of the eleven most owned players overall (I have omitted Jesus).
They all have over 33% ownership overall, but the combination is only owned by 0.1% overall according to livefpl.

Ward
Trippier, Cancelo, Saliba
Martinelli, Almiron, De Bruyne, Salah, Trossard
Haaland.

The following combination all have (or had) over 32% ownership by livefpl's elite sample, but the combination is (or was) only owned by 1.2% of the elite sample according to livefpl, and some of them may be bench players.

Ward
Trippier, Cancelo, N.Williams
Martinelli, Salah, Zaha, Andreas, Foden
Haaland, Solanke

Foden has done wonders for me this season but it's KDB or none from the City midfield now on

I’d go Rashford over Foden, more likely to start regularly

Rashford likely to score better over next 3 games.

Will only play the first game (in a decimated defence) if Dalot isn’t fit. Avoid.

Unsure but agree great option if fit

Im gambling on Walker.

I think Toney's point to prove is an off-pitch one at the moment. I wonder if Spurs are going to be really underprepared & a bit crap with a few absentees & late returners

E - Rashford

I’m tempted by Madders but might wait a couple of weeks. He’s another with a point to prove so this approach could be dangerous.

I didn't have him at any point in the season and he's in my team now. Very consistent returns

Keeping, think he’ll come back from the WC fired up

It’s a really interesting dilemma. He might come back all guns blazing to prove a point or he could return feeling low on confidence. I suspect the former will be true but I’ve sold him this week to take a foolhardy punt on Toney. I’ll get him back in time for the double if he’s looking ok.

I have both Kane & Darwin

Considering how poor he looked following the City snub, I think it does effect him psychology and I think he might struggle.

I thought he looked shattered at the world cup.

Honestly it would be madness in my opinion. He is like Trent from the last couple of years.

Yes it sucks that you don't get his points as everyone has him, but we look extremely solid at the back, he is absolutely deadly from set pieces, he puts in a lot of crosses from open play and he is talismanic for us.

No given great value , in a good defensive team plus attacking returns

No.

Hell no

I'd rather go without Cancelo than Trippier to be honest.

Talk of him playing up front with Jesus missing so would be a bold move to ditch now.

Its a fair point. I have thought about leaving out Arsenal attack entirely for a few weeks til the fixtures improve. But at the moment I'm sticking with him, although in a deep squad where I may rotate him once or twice if their attack isn't quite clicking in the same way. I do expect the absence of Jesus' pressing work to have a detrimental effect on all the mids, but its just a question of how much

It's not like a completely new season by any means. This is wishful thinking, because maybe you just want to see Arsenal falling apart. We won't suddenly turn into Huddersfield Town.

A and save a transfer 😉

A looks more rounded.

KDB
Saka

Yeah the threat of a ban is probably going to keep him kind of differential. I guess you could just deal with it when it happens, but I'm not too sure of the procedure/timeframe & my understanding of the situation is that a long suspension is very likely

James or nothing if you ask me.

Fofana at 4.3 more appealing (if fit)

Its still quite template tbh, except Robbo & Walker. I wouldn't call it a "low ownership" chasing team exactly
