Yeah B mate

Watkins and a 4.5m keeper you know will start.

I think Darwin is considered more nailed than Gakpo atm. I wouldn’t go double Utd attack personally, but a good squad.

Same feedback from me, I wouldn't go double United attack

Don't like gakpo. Rotation risk and not exactly prolific.

Looks superb

(Or downgrading Darwin instead of Stones)

It's an issue on Twitter/X's end of things

And the tweets on the FPL website are all messed up too. The top tweet showing there is a price reveal for Cristiano Ronaldo from 2021!

Eze to Olise? (If fit)

Is the bench fodder?

Onana to a 4.5

Maybe downgrade one of your 6.5 mids, beef up your defence and go 4-4-2?

Watkins > Jackson

I meant 15 of course

It's a valid strategy, sometimes I play it GW1 if I am certain all 16 are starters and the fixtures make it reasonable to do so

I always get my bb wrong. Last year I got 4 points! Still prefer using it later

I think it means you will have a weaker first 11 until you WC

1. You'll have a better chance of nailing 15 starters later in the season when we have a better idea who is nailed & fit. You'll also have found better enablers, and have higher team value.
2. You miss out on the chance to cram up to 30 fixtures into one GW.
3. I think a stronger bench is more useful later in the season when rotation due to other competitions is more prevalent than GWs1-5

We often hear your point that if BB is "out of way", that we could then focus on having the best 11 without "worrying" about BB.

This only makes sense if we forget BB is a bonus, and if we build our late season strategy around it. We don't have to. It's a bonus, it's usually worth 10 points, so we shouldn't focus on it too much. Simply play it during a DGW when you have single GW players with good fixtures, done.

Mitoma

Solid, Bowen could be a weapon

Yes, have him. It's a punt that's easy to exit if it doesn't work out, but has a high ceiling

No too much risk and rotation. Prefer wissa or nketiah at cheaper price

A little heavy at the back but if you see plenty of cleansheets then why not

Variable interest rate mortgage vs. fixed

Agree on most, but Mitoma?
He seems pretty solid for their first three games, and easily replaced.

Pretty much any pick can have a sad ending

Don't think most are popular at all. Mudryk and James and richarlison must be very lowly owned

7 years a sub.
No.
Means nothing for Chilwell.

Hes a back up, so not really relevant unless Kepa has a stinker

Is Porro nailed? He was in my initial draft due to outrageous xG/xA but I don’t know if he has been playing pre season. Given the Sanchez to Chelsea move, A with Sanchez could be good.

I prefer Gabriel for goal threat, but Saliba might get more bonus for passing. It's a coin toss in my opinion.

I’ve come to the conclusion that it has to be Salah and I can reassess to bring in whichever other Liverpool asset ends up seeming nailed/in form if one emerges.

Salah for the first two GW for me in a 4-5-1 for me, then something like Salah and 4.5m forward to Son and Watkins after that.

I'm currently on 3-4-3, so A for me.

No City defender started more than 24 of 38 last season, Stones started 22 and don’t expect that goes up much this season. Given he could even end up starting the tougher matches and benched against fodder, I’d be avoiding personally.

*Sorry £2M in the bank

A. Martinelli + £4m DEF
B. Chilwell + £4.5m MID

I think that’s it. Bruno seems to good value whereas Rashford is priced about right. I’m taking the punt that Bruno gets the hauls his stats suggest and Rashford regresses but we’ll see.

I was tempted but with Jesus out I prefer Arsenal double up in midfield

Currently in Rashford but the thought process is Bruno creating chances for a number 9 will see him under priced. I’m happy to do Rash > Bruno when Hojlund settles but don’t need both upfront.

I have zero interest in Man U attackers. Might consider striker depending on price when he comes in.

It's because there are so many Utd supporters and they've found a reason to believe everything is going to be wonderful this season.

If Foden starts Sunday against Arsenal he is straight in my team. 3/5/2 looking better and better with Jesus and Nkunku out + Darwin rotation but I still prefer Watkins as it stands.

Until KDB is fit, I don't think Foden is really a risk. Not many options besides this in attack:
Foden Bernardo Alvarez Grealish
Haaland

Not sure if Kovacic is dynamic enough to play any of these roles. Unless Pep does something like play Rico Lewis as an 8, they should all be nailed short-term (I think)

Not sure - if he's first choice then the move unlocks two very good 4.5 options
