Sels...

Give him one more week?

Any input below?

Cheers

Ouch

If 22 points is the baseline that's + 12.

It's not as bad as it feels. Lots played their Burnley BB to give them an extra 15 or so points.

Apparently Sarr is back, Ismaila that is

Selling him is bonkers

Why sell? Was thinking of getting him in.

Yes they are. As a Munoz owner, it's particularly annoying.

Definitely for the better. Well done FPL, probably brought in by Mark

My dilemma is selling Watkins or Bowen for Haaland and I'm selling the former without much thought.
Villa look hopeless when attacking, complete lack of pace/creativity/desire to take any risk. I'd keep Mateta despite the seemingly tougher fixtures. Fulham can keep it tight, while Liverpool's defence isn't exactly intimidating and Everton play some more positively minded football this season (though Branthwaite will probably be back by then)

If anyone doesn't need any advice on here, it's you.

Having said that, surely you have to give Watkins those two fixtures. Something is desperately wrong in the Villa dressing room by the looks of it, but if he's going to ever score......................

Who would you buy though? Are you better just to roll the transfers through the WC and cross your fingers?

I'd sell Watkins regardless of the fixtures.

Depends how long you want to stick with him on his non goalscoring streak?

Just sell Watkins.
Toothless.

Keeping him any longer is bordering on masochism.
Watkins is a priority sell regardless of the fixtures. If it's part of a hit, even better.

KDH on 4 yellows. Maybe Stach?

Yeah I'd roll, but you'll need to show strength to resist the temptation of Gakpo to Foden the closer you get to deadline.

Yeah, it's good.

Not sure about Saka just yet. Bruno might be better with that budget.

Not sure about gyokeres

Nice.

Think Senesi better than the bench tho. Depends on budget/preference, but might look for some savings on defence and beef up the midfield a little more?

Hmmm we are very far apart on thinking, my WC team would be something like

Roefs
Senesi Guehi VdV
Salah Bruno Semenyo Reijnders
Haaland Pedro Mateta

Ndiaye looks like a diamond. Great value compared to Bruno.

I think it's just Everton. They defend in a deep passive 4411, so the wide players are an important part of the defensive block.

Do you prefer Grealish or Ndiaye?

He does play Gw8 at Man City as well, Ndi.

thanks all

Wanted to keep Ekitike - really like him - but dissuaded by the minutes risk. As long as Gyok gets supply (Saka returning should help), he seems a decent prospect as the fixtures turn. Have swapped him in over Ekitike, alongside Haaland and Pedro. Question is what to do if/when Isak starts banging them in.

Great player. Great in FPL too. He's going to keep pace with the Arsenal CBs imo.

Does he do the dishes well?

Semmy.

I'm concerned Wirtz is going to start playing LW. Gets him out of the congested physical midfield and gives him to some space to play and settle in. He's played there a bit the last couple of games...

Keep gakpo

Can I respond back with who to bench instead? I just want to type as less as possible. 💡

Salah not exactly hauling every week...

😉

Because Haaland is better at playing football?

Lol

Cos he's averaging over 8pts a game compared to Salah's 5.5. Both cost 14m plus and with the captaincy that 8 turns into 16 versus 11. Not everyone wants 2 x £14m players in their team so seems a rational choice to make (plus Burnley next week for Haaland).

foden, more explosive potential

Foden has done nothing to suggest it is worth bringing him in and comes with lots of risk. Bruno hauls even when the team play badly and is nailed as can be.

Bruno easily

Bruno

Bruno vs. bre + SUN IMO
Bruno would be one of the highest scoring players in the game if he's have scored that pen in GW2
Defcon + xGI + pens + x90 mins

Fernandes (and I'm a lifelong blue)

Plays Brentford next.

Ha I was thinking of doing Gakpo to Mbuemo. Don't know why you'd want to get rid

been really unfortunate. near assist vs fulham but was og. donnarumma wonder save. open goal tap in but sanchez wipes him out etc. the early subbing last gw was the biggest worry imo long term, but think that was just due to being down to 10. still see him as a potentially 90 minute man. hes getting in all the right positions, some set-pieces, for attacking returns not to come soon would be pretty unbelievable

Next 2 fixtures is a keep

He's looked great whenever I've watched Man Utd tbh, unlucky not to have more points

Thanks all! Will be keeping!

Maybe they realise that any points he gets will stop them falling further behind? You don’t seem very bright.

Salah had 2.5m more owners before this Gw began.

I'm just trying maximise my chances of points. What other people do is of no concern to me.

Just bring players who are less than 15% and then let us know how you got on.

Triple captain here 🙂

Not at all. Like having Haaland in my team and pleased he's scoring again. Not yet convinced he's worth 14m-plus but having him does appear to have done my "rank" a power of good over the last 2GWs. That said, am getting a lot more value out of budget defenders.

B. Watkins still nailed, Wood probably dropped

Take a hit and get rid of both.

I'm bringing him in but will be after the Friday team news.. he was subbed off today.. not worried about the price rise

B

Rjeinders no brainer

Or Stach

I got Stach on wild card.. and he has more than repaid my faith. I would get Reijnders in. Bargain at his price

A little early still for Saka? Can you stage it and avoid the hit? Otherwise like it.

Do you have your WC? Cause I think the ACTUAL key question is how the rest of your team would look like if you double up. I had a hard time finding a team that I was satisfied with when I tried to double up. If you think you can do it and you still have your WC, I'd probably go for it. But only because I'd know that if I'd get in trouble with the rest of my squad due to injuries, I'd have an easy way out if needed.

Went for the double a couple of GWs ago and slashed defence budget to accommodate. Jammily got the right defenders and so far it's working but too early to tell really.
