Meet the Manager #16 – Tarek Balbaa

Ha, top post, need to stick with it now 😉

You know you will.

Nice
Assist + CS + 2 bonus Incoming 😉

not boring but stupid

So thats what we doing this week huh?

Got to be Aguero

Good luck. Personally believe I'll be better off come the end of the season if I stick with the best fixture between Salah / Sterling every week.

But doing this stuff is fun...

Sterling for me. City will destroy Norwich

Wow that's a tough one! Coin flip for me but perhaps 50.01/49.99 in favour of A due to Liv fix.

Answers you own question with the double up.

A

A

I have A.
But B also great imo.
A for me, just ...

A for me

Not tough. A.

Definitely A for me, especially since you have Robertson.

I think Haller is a better pick than Barnes for the moment, and there's not really much to separate the defenders.

A

Wouldn’t get them all for squad balance (unless losing Salah) but I wouldn’t be taking any out if I had them

Have all 3 and am definetley keeping for now. Will possibly do Aguero to Haller if he starts getting his minutes managed again so I can get a better balance in defence. For now I'm happy though.

I think not

Hopefully not as i have Pope & my rival has Ryan 😛

I don’t think so but might not be too much damage

Don't think so.

No Ryan is awful

Pope is much better pick

Not a Kane owner but looks like he has been practising ways to get penalties.

If I wasn't expecting anything from my 11M forward at home to Palace I'd be getting rid ASAP.

Keeping this week, probably a blank.

Where is the Kane hate coming from?
Hes in great form (played well vs Arsenal and smacked the ball against the post from a crazy angle and coulf have had assists in a second half that was dominated by the Gunnersss)

I transferred him out after the last game. It’s not that I dislike him, he’s a great striker when fit and on form, it’s more that Spurs look like a team with “backstage” issues at the moment and it’s affecting their play. He doesn’t pass the eye test either. For 11m I expected more than what I was getting from him and as I wouldn’t have captained him over the next 10 games (City / Liverpool captaincies all the way) it was an easy decision for me.

Would have to see what Pepe does between now and then but doubt I'd make that switch regardless.

No way would I do Salah to Pepe! He has done nothing.

Good one. :).

I am very interested in Pepe but need to see him deliver some fpl returns in a couple of games, looking at gw 7/8 to maybe bring him in if he has shown some return.

Considering that for sure - would also free up funds to bring in Son alongside KDB, Sterling and Pepe.

I think now is the time for Pepe.

I brought him in. He has two weeks to deliver or show serious promise otherwise I'm moving on. wat and AVL are perfect fixtures for him to haul in.

Maverick

Ha. Just don't fancy the cheaper mids but may swap to Tielemans in GW9 if all goes to plan.

consider pope pieters double up better

Not keen on defense double-up tbh. I see Woods ownership is 0.6%, nice differential if he starts scoring.

B is better

Defo B

Asking as a Robinson owner - I'm hoping the "hamstring strain" that is being reported is just a minor issue or a bit of a white lie to get him home early and rested for next weekend 😀

He did came off injured. Coz he has been sent back to shieff and will skip the second internation match. Having said that it can be very little ( as typical international injury). Would wait for pressers.

Great, thanks.That looks positive for Wood/Barnes combo.

Generally, it takes Barnes

4 gws then another in Oct

This is true but think everyone already knows it

He’s no Nabil Bentaleb

Price rises are so suspect this year, lol.

If it were fixed FPL statistics would not know

How can it be fixed ?

Lanzmann

KDB. I have Pepe for Arsenal cover

A
If you're on a WC KDB is essential

Seems good and balanced. Son over KDB is risky but could pay off.

Cantwell ➡ 4.4m mid and VVD ➡ TAA if you can.

Looks perfect though.

I love Pepe pick. Could prove to be a future 11.0 big hitter. The only thing that concerns me is lack of Sterling.

I like it a lot actually, I'd still want both Salah and Sterling but it's a very nice team. Did you have a better week before the break?

I have Pepe so that's a yes from me.

But I would look to get at least 2 City attackers somehow - their fixtures are way too good to ignore. Either Sterling + KdB or Aguero for one of them. Vardy's fixtures are stiff for a while. I know he's a stat buster, but surely Aguero too tough to leave off with his fixtures.

I'd go son over pepe, but solid team

Cheers for replies everyone!

All good to save

Otamendi

Lundstram

Lundstram

Lundstram

Similar team to me, but I have Ayew instead of Greenwood.

Playing Lundstram.

I expect it would have been all over this site by now if someone had managed it!

5.2itb wow.

I would do Luiz to TAA and Wickham to Wilson or Jiminez.

Aye, TAA in for Luiz looks a good shout

Yes, more of time to integrate with his new teammates. Ample time to work with the likes of AubaZette.

B

b

im between Sterling and Mane.. ATM on Sterling

Toss a coin.

No one can really know which is best; City could batter that Norwich backline, but I'm going with Salah.

Reason being that he'll be better rested than Razza, has a great record at home, and Liverpool have so many different ways of breaking down Newcastle that I can see them scoring early on and opening up the Toon.

I'm on sterling or mane. Probably put it on sterling.
