I switched Szob to Cherki last week. I think Cherki is the more explosive but a gamble as his minutes aren't secure. Szoboszlai should start and play 90 in most games, and tick over for points.

Have you considered Rogers as an alternative?

Cherki looked lively today

The shot that rebounded off the inside of the post involved a lovely swerve or feint

Certainly concerning.

Yes

Just Foden to Rogers if possible.

So you keep saying.

I often wonder if part of the reason this game is so addictive is because of the love/hate highs and lows.

I also hate the game today. 33 points from wildcard. 4 to play.

Is that a copy and paste from the last thread?

BB1 fail, TC3 fail (not the worst but should have been better). Chips/single GWs, anything can happen. I don't hate the game, I want to build a team strong enough to handle the unexpected

How many times have you posted this?

Yes.

Not for me

Front three is glorious

Not yet. Your team might not be perfect but more information (slightly confusing season so far) could help

See what happens tomorrow but Mbeumo to Rogers and Foden to Gakpo might be worth it. Or Hume to Konsa and Foden to Gakpo?

Ask again after Manchester United plays tomorrow

Don't like Verb, White, Konsa, double Hull, Gakpo, Gross, Wissa/DCL. So for me, no.

I quite like it but it is similar to the wc I selected last week, and that hasn't gone well.

I think Josh King at 5.5 could be a better option than Gross, although perhaps not for the next two weeks. Fulham have a great fixture run after that though.

White is great if playing but may lose his place to Timber soonish.

I went Egan over Ajayi because he seemed more likely to get defcons. Not sure that is the case though.

Palmer's potential to be explosive is largely dependent on who is playing as the RWB.

Last game vs Brighton when Neto was there he was often far more advanced than Palmer, who was dropping deeper to cover when Neto roamed forward

Neto went off and Palmer was far more involved in the final 3rd, getting his goal.

Cherki to Rogers was on my mind also but yet another Hull clean sheet makes it less appealing. They look solid.

Newcastle fixture do look very attractive. Might pay off

Yes

City mids are a minefield. And Newcastle don’t actually have good fixtures until GW5. What are your regrets on WC?

Played wildcard today and don't know what to do. GW6 was the better plan, but I failed.

Just the way, innit

NOR might need replacing depending on injury news

Bit of a comedown after 131 points last week, hoping to get to 70 points with 3 to go (Mbeumo Maguire and Pedro)

You'll want Mbeumo back in for Arbeloa's final game GW5

What would your wc team be?

That rank will be even better by the close of play

Very nice indeed. Well played!

Are you a physician?

He's looked good since Liverpool no longer need to facilitate 95% of their play down the right flank to keep Salah from throwing a tantrum.

Ah yes Barry, the Everton forward who will either flop in spectacular fashion, or smash 20 goals and become an Everton legend

FH9 surely - avoid Liverpool/Arsenal, Chelsea/Utd and Brighton/City - treble Hull defence vs Ipswich at home....

What are these mistakes oh so great FPL player.

Over 10 million don't stand a chance of winning, its not about winning it, its about small wins, big disappointment and pain and misery for most

We're always wise after the event.

Hope I never win - interviews, name becoming public knowledge and all that. I really want another top 10k finish, but even more important is that we all enjoy the game, and life

I seem to get worse at this game the more I play it.

Yeah
GW7 vs. IPS at home looks way better now

Could have been worse, could have been better, and least it's used and you don't need to stress about when to play it, but yeah was hoping for more

Very happy with the 27 points here.

3 weeks in, 3 captain hits.

He could have blanked

Underwhelming yes, but this cannot be a big failure

Failure, but not a big failure. I avoided Mané and Sané, but Marmoush 2024 (two starts but still only 4 points) was worse

I was expecting 12 minimum, so 9 not a failure.

Any return from your TC should never be sniffed at, many TC blanks incoming this season.

I'd have liked more but given he already got max bonus a hat-trick would have been 8 more points for the treble capiain chip (as I would have captained him anyway) which is nice but not the end of the world. Can still captain him against Ipswich as normal so might not be a huge swing. Who knows - he might have managed minutes by then

Looks decent

Extremely worthy

yeah, after IB?

Fellow NOR owner, the upside is NOR i think will claw it back soon and Gvardiol owners wont be able to make the switch

City with Gvardiol dias guehi into 2 cb positions will soon be a mess

B C a

Calafiori has been class so far. Takes up advanced positions. I would go with him. Ben White a slight minutes risk with Timber back in training. Gabriel looks overpriced this season as although he should play most games, I don't think he will score as many goals as he did. I'd go B, although it is the template pick.

BCA- but consider Raya

Looks great on paper, but Haaland is just so inevitable and a permanent captain option, have looked at this myself and if Bruno keeps bringing it may well go similar route

I think you can salvage this with your FTs and wait out till the break before WC.

Hard to ignore Raya and 4.0

Suprised you cam afford them all, Id prefer double arsenal defence over Odegaard

Which original 5 left to play....

Yep those 2 points will cost you (eye roll)
