    Recommending DCL is a wild take. Good luck with the red arrows!

      Agreed Everton are awful and he's injury prone. It's the price and pens that is seducing people. Who's gonna win them pens tho? McNeil? Lol

          8 yrs of being worthless isn’t enough for you? Useful exactly one season of that time.

          7 goals from 13xG last year

            Not enough to put me off. Fixtures as good as it gets. Everton will get results over this period and Id back him to get returns. Injury history is a worry. But 22 points so far at 5.9 m.

              Go with your gut I guess mate. Personally I'm going nowhere near him but that doesn't mean others shouldn't if they feel differently. I have Pedro and only other forward I like that's under 7 is Cunha but need the Wolves fixture swing

      Is it though?

      Article says has scored 6 goals in last 11

      2 this season, where he has higher PPG over the first 4 weeks than everyone else under 6m, other than the Brighton pair. So if you owned him, he's certainly not been responsible for any red arrows now.

      That's with Everton being awful, they will get slightly better in time IMO, and have a nice draw ahead.

      He is their talisman.

      He also has good historic pedigree for FPL points when fit.

      Actually already had him pegged as the best sub 6.0m option

          That's fair, not for everyone. I might still go Vardy for the bants.

          Just don't think it's wild take as OP said.

            Still scoring at 37 and he's just a fun player to own innit for bants. I think Cunha is an ideal third forward, just fixtures rn aren't great just yet

      Total, unqualified guestimate. Best choice for the under 6m(with that Brentford dude ouT) by far.

      IMO. I'm feeling I need to back him up as I just bought him in place of Isaak. Then I get Saka from Eze.

    Anyone hold any grudge against a certain player in FPL? It's not rational of course but sometimes works out. My grudge is with EZE. Had him from the start of last season was on about 8% ownership. Rated him a year before a lot of people it seems. Had patience with him, 4 blanks and 3 price drops, sold him and he got a haul. So this season when I saw him on 35% ownership I didn't even look at him and now people are feeling the frustration I did 12 months ago. Points dodging and just as unlucky a year later, madness

          Yeah your not wrong consistent minutes and points are always a plus. But for 10.0 I want a few explosive hauls. I had Son's 16 pointer against Everton for example and my brother had Palmer's 17 against Wolves. Saka's consistency probably evens it out of course over the season but I want killers in my team just makes it more fun

      I think this is the way I may be heading, I currently have Nketiah but may move money into attack & go Haaland, Watkins & Havertz, figure there’s more variety in mf to hop on/off while cheap forwards are pointy & not really inspiring.

      I have 3 FTs, so can make this happen in 2 weeks.

          Schade seems a decent player from the handful of times I've seen him, but I think Carvalho is a level above him, he's had a few weeks of bedding in now and I just feel its a matter of time before he's starting games, like you say they did spend a fair amount on him, their record signing I think, and they didn't do that so he can sit on the bench

            Absolutely mate, I rate him as a player, think he got 2 goals in pre season for Liverpool, record signing for the Bees, hungry to prove himself, all reasons I gambled on him. He's good enough to start for Brentford. Maybe now with Wissa out he gets his chance. Lost 0.2 on him but points matter more. Might stick with him on wildcard as 8th attacker if he starts next game

    Playing around in possible preparations for a WC in GW6.

    What is the concensus on Lewis at the moment - solid pick at 4.7, or a punt which requires a starting bench back up (as well as the odd 45-minutes 1-pointer)?
