Meet the Manager #1: Nick aka Triggerlips

Just do Mikhi to Fraser. Wolves have Man U next so no need to take a hit yet.

I am captaining him in this game.

I wouldnt triple captain him. He's been double marked this season which leaves loads of space for Mane, Firmino and even Robertson to bomb forward. He's not playing bad, maybe just a little bit more selfish to prove last year's points wasn't a fluke? If anything, i'll captain Mane.

I think I’m getting him and capping him this week.

Yes

Ryan does have great fixtures after this week but you have a transfer to burn so why not, bit sideways for me though.

Not for a -4

Yes

exactly, haz to salah is my likely transfer

Totally agree. All about forward planning, too many panic and get the big scorers from the previous week in which doesn’t always pay off. I have Hazard already but if I didn’t I wouldn’t be making hits I taking Salah out to get him in.

I want more of the sheeple to drop Salah before deadline.

No one drinks Lemsip out of choice though, he's either got an illness verging on terminal or he's mentally scarring his kids with it so they never complain about being be ill! 🙂

poor pep has a very weak squad so id be amazed if bilva benched

I think he'll start, but centrally. Not sure whether that's good or bad, but I've decided I'd rather have Richarlison, so shipping him

I fail to see the headache there.

Mkhi > Richa

I prefer Richarlison. This is one of those decisions where the stats are probably a bit less relevant. The whole team is geared towards getting the best out of Richarlison

I will say maddison. Only because Richarlison has been out for 3 weeks and MAY take some time to get back into the grove .

No - waste of a transfer.

I would hold this week, that starting 11 looks great

Interesting shout. Probably a good option, but prefer Richarlison

Mo way

I think I’ll go with Hazard.

Mane for me

I am.considering Robertson.

He gets bonus too..

Keep

PS I have .1 spare to absorb a single Rich price rise

defo roll, hudds are rubbish

B

Foster. United are actually pretty good in attack this season - I think 3rd best stats wise?

Cheers guys, reckon both could well rack up some save pts this wk

Deception

Two blanks

Temp replacement whilst Richarlison was out. Also never showed any form in that period to warrant keeping upon Richarlison return.

Arsenal

Blanks vs 2 crap teams and has looked total pants in those games

patience isn't a modern trait

Its walcott - everyone remembering thats hes guff

I'm keeping as well as getting Rich and play both, think it will be a high scoring game...

Will need to wait and see with Utd. Too up and down for my liking at present.

Good option, a better one than Moura imo. For me, his price is a little awkward and he isn't quite as good as Dilva, Richarlison or Fraser, so I'd struggle to fit him in

I'm really considering him for Bilva.

A decent punt, but can't see him outscoring the main options

I’m waiting for him to properly nail down the place. Can’t be bringing him in only to see him back on the bench.

the way Everton defends it could be that day when he score a hatty, but Arsenal haven´t been that good attackingwise, nonetheless they have scored decent amount of goals so far. This game looks like a classic 5-2 Arsenal win

I'll probably take a punt on Aubameyang to be honest. Considering the history between the two, and Everton looking particularly ropey, it doesn't feel like too big a punt. Pick whoever you want, screw everyone else. Good luck.

Yep. Wait on Mendy news, he might be the downgrade you need

VvD to Holebas and Stephens to Fraser.

Nah, not this week

Possible. League Cup midweek though, so a rest then makes more sense no?

That would be lethal

I find it highly unlikely

dont really care...

Rested? He went off around 70-80min against PSG, why would he be rested?

I'd be a bit worried if Lukaku was the reason for selling Salah. I'd shuffle to Sterling, and keep your forwards. Or maybe Ings to Mitro

I’d like Sterling but I think there is a good chance he’ll be benched v Liverpool.

Forgot to add I only habe exact funds of 4.4 hence tomkins

Why?
Thought it was a good interview.

Gotta be honest, thought it was coma inducingly dull so turned off. Not a criticism of Nick though, broadcasting ain't easy and he had time lag to deal with

Plus other pods are doing this feature. WGTA,3Amigos,to name two. I don’t see their guests as being a reflection of their brand image. Just a way of the certain Pod or site as expanding their horizons and getting the FPL community to get some insight into some of the personalities in the game.
Why can’t FFS do the same. They are trying very hard to respond to the feedback that we all gave.

Brand image is less important in the online world. Brand doesn't deliver much value vs functionality. The function of this site is to deliver FPL insights and that is what the interview provided. Not a bad decision to interview him at all.

I thought it was an excellent video. Well done to both. It was Original and refreshingly different to all the other FPL content that gets pumped out week after week. Getting TL on the scoutcast would give it the shake up that it needs.

With age comes wisdom, Mr Wizard. He talked about patience which is what a lot of younger people don't have nowadays, unfortunately. Yes, it's a reflection of the FFS brand image but Triggerlips is an FPL veteran and FFS community member like the rest of us so in my eyes he's the same as us. Age doesn't matter, results do - and he has them.

That is an extremely shallow comment.
Brand image my hole!
You sound like a chairman who spends a fortune to get a trendy young manager in but he flops, then have to go to the tried and tested experienced ones.
You have some neck to be coming on this website giving out about a fella who is always keen to share tips and advice for years.
Meanwhile you are not even using this site for a year and are going on about 'brand image'
For me the site should be about substance first and style second.
Decent content, decent advice not all this bells and whistles stuff with little underneath.
Do you prefer people using menaingless phrases like underlying stats, essential, coverage etc. Lots of buzzwords but little clue why they are saying them other then to fit in?

Anyway I am off to buy some own brand milk.

Doubt it. They can easily play at the weekend and be rested in the cup

WC sales. %drop required

Same as last year, FPL towers price protecting highly owned/priced players.

It's down to the % of total ownership. For example if a player with 2% ownership drops to 1.5% that's clearly a massive difference vs 52% down to 46%. Wildcards also as those do not count, or at least only a certain amount do, can't quite remember.

It's week to go maverick !!!

Many Captain choice = time to make some bold move

way more interesting this way, a kane haul would really spice things up

Robertson (Tc) do it hhaha

Jesus has never especially impressed me, at least not in comparison to Aguero.

A number of City players had a bad game, can't ignore that.

No Pep on the touchline berating them; I'm sure that was the biggest thing to be honest.

Wouldn't read too much into it otherwise. Cardiff is a very different opponent.
