Ha, me too! Have usually taken a -8 by now but only one -4 last week to get Aguero.
Have played my wildcard though.
yeah, I've also played my WC but always play it early
such a nice feeling going into the following week with 2FT too... especially if you have had a good GW too
true that mate
Who to play?
A} Lanzini Vs man utd at home or
B} Cantwell away to Burnley
Heart and fixture says lanzini
Head and form says cantwell
Thoughts?
A
Cheers
b for me
lanzini look not dangerous and i already trade lanzini to cantwell
I agree. This might well be his appearance in my team
Play
A) Pieters
B) Lundstram
A
One week punt:
A) Otamendi (WAT)
B) Kolasinac (AVL)
B for me

Presser schedule &
Early kickoff time please!!!
Kickoff is an hour after deadline.
Is it early then as usual time this GW ?
Earlier than last GW.
But it is? It was last week..
On flp statistics, how do you know when players are about to drop? All I see is the player's rising percentages
Click on target.
Just click on target. It'll sort the other way around.
Cheers
Which grouping would you rather have?
1) Auba, Tammy; Salah, Iwobi
2) Auba, fodder; Mane, Son
#2 is locked in to 352
Relatively weak defense either way; includes TAA either way
1 but with Mount over Iwobi
this
see below
Already have Mount. And only 5.9 to spend.
Cantwell and Auba to Aguero?
Play one, please:
A. Dunk (new)
B. Maguire (whu)
C. Lundstram (eve)
B
B
Interesting, thanks. I think West Ham carry the most goal threat and Newcastle the least, so was starting Dunk.
Lundstram used to be at Everton, didn’t he? Does that affect your thinking?
Will check the bookie CS odds too but have put Maguire in for now. Thanks.
Lund is also good pick. I just choosed Maguire from your list as i would prefer him.
appreciated
play
a. soyuncu
b. rico
I think both will concede so based on attacking threat, Rico?
Pukki (C) and "Save your team" 🙂
For the season ?
From now on.
Thoughts on Hayden as a bench fodder? Better option than Dendoncker?
I don't think so. Donkey is still a playing attacking midfielder.
Don't forget the Friday kick off kids.
Or I could have said gtg post on the way from me.
Keep jota for one last week? Has a decent fixture.....
The record is scratched possible broken ??
Yes, was on the bench in EL so should start on Sunday.
Best 4.5 mid?
Hayden?
Donckers still.
Start Heaton (ars) or Pope (NOR)?
Pope
Coin flip.
Exactly why I think rotating keeper is a waste of . 5 about a 50/50 chance of picking the wrong one.
I dont necessarily rotate. They are good pair of gk's all in all. They also enable the rotation of course.
I think i start Heaton. I hope he reap up save points.
Norwich will score at least once. They are super hot right now.
Heaton: min 3-4pts
Pope: max 2pts
This is my prediction 🙂

Andone: I deserved to play more, I lost my confidence and I don’t want to go back to Brighton
Bridges burnt, wow.
Or back with his tail between his legs when realize that he is useless too 🙂
Anyone else thinking that cantwell is too much of an FPL assest to be sitting on the bench most weeks?
See my team below!
Well he's good cover for City assets who get rotated a lot.
Only got one city player, KDB. Hayden could easily cover just as well.
As someone who left him on the bench last week, clearly yes!
Haha.. ditto, and pukki
No.
You'd rather have a cheap enabler do less for your team?
WC team locked in. But any remarks will be appreciated. Best off luck to you all!
Pope
TAA Soyuncu Rico
Salah KDB Son Cantwell
Kun(c) Abraham Pukki
Button Hayden Engels Lund
0.2itb
Is Rico even nailed now?
Might play just this one match and Kelly will take over. Better fixture than Engels and Lund plus on set-pieces, so taking a punt
Similar to mine. Defence seems a bit weak?
It is! But 5 weeks TAA Digne Zinch KWP didnt gave much either. Would love to keep Digne but couldnt manage it
So just because they didn’t produce much over 5 weeks you’d go that cheap in defence and will likely want a better defence later? Makes sense.
To me, it does. Without Allison and Laporte Liverpool and City are not as formidable as they were last year. Spurs United Arsenal Chelsea all has been, to put in a modest way, inconstant. Kept TAA for attacking returns mainly. I can always downgrade one premium and upgrade one defense later.
*inconsistent
I can see your poiny. I've flipped vvd for aurier this week and kept taa and Digne. Defenders only seem worth it if they offer attacking potential. CS aren't there yet. Hopefully your switch will pay dividends
Hopefully! Thank you!
Just after some advice please. I don't know what to do with my ft. Current team with 1 ft & 0.7 bank
Ryan
VVD, Digne, Zinchenko
Salah (c), Sterling, KDB, McGinn, Cantwell
Haller, Pukki
Heaton, AMN, Ayew, Lundstram
(1) I could go:
(a) VVD out - TAA in or
(b) Haller out - Abraham in (this could wait until next gw) or
(c) Save ft or
(d) Any other suggestions I haven't considered
(2) Another question would you play AMN over anyone in my starting 11
Thoughts & thanks.
Save ft and AMN over Zinch/McGinn.
VVD->TAA a bit waste of a tranfer
I'm losing patience with jota.... But he has a decent fixture this week and to remove him I have to make a-4..... Keep for one last week?
Sell imo
Wait I saw you'd have to ditch for a -4, in that case, just keep.
Not worth a hit, but prob prioritize dropping him soon.
Not for -4.
From next week, I'm looking at swapping:
Digne, Firmino, Barnes to
TAA, Wilson, Abraham
for a -4.
Good moves?
Yes
Yep.
Not bad but is it necessary?
As I’m playing Pope, tempted to bench Cantwell and play Lundstram. Is this way of thinking madness?
Well it makes no sense at all. Who do you think will get the most points, is all.
Madness.
Dont play Pope
Why? They might only have one playing GK.
He's being sarcastic. I appreciated it!
I've narrowed my transfer to 2 options now. Planning on saving a FT for next week to bring in Tammy and upgrade Montoya.
Pope
TAA, VVD, Digne, Montoya
Salah, Sterling, KDB, Ceballos
Wilson, Pukki
Button, Dendoncker, Lundstram, Greenwood
2FT 0.0m itb
A) VVD -> Otamendi
B) Ceballos -> Cantwell
C) Something else
B.
A is a decent shout but I'd want Mendy in a few weeks most likely so I'd hold off.
That's a good point actually, I totally forgot about Mendy.
Lowkey feel Pukki, Abraham, Barnes would suffice at a front 3 attack.
Sadly you miss out on the explosiveness of Aguero and Aubameyang but it's not like Mane, Salah, Sterling, De Bruyne, Son, etc can't do the same.
Not really that different from the Pukki/Barnes/Haller that every second person on here seemed to be running a week or two ago.
auba, pukki, wilson is better
Obviously depends on Mount injury news somewhat but would you be inclined to:
A) Mount -> Cantwell, save transfer and go to 343 next week
B) Mount, VVD, Greenwood -> Cantwell, Tammy, 5m def (-4)
Ryan
Digne Robbo VVD Zink
Salah Sterling KDB Mount**
Barnes Pukki
Button / Lundstram Dendoncker Wickham
2FT 0ITB
I am looking at a very similar decision. Tough to know.
Taking a hit when two of the players coming in have bad fixtures feels wrong..
For sure, pretty sure I am just going to bring in Cantwell and reassess next week.
Leaning towards A right now.
Bench 2
Captain 1
Boly Digne VVD Dunk Lundstram
Sterling KDB Mane Son Cantwell
Abraham Pukki
Lund and Dunk.
Don't like any of your captain options really considering Sterling doubts.
Yeesh, don’t think Son, KDB, Pukki, or Mane can do the business?
Personally leaning towards KDB personally.
Cheers for the Dunk and Lund advice
Personally
I know i'm in the vast majority here, but I don't rate KDB as a captain. He's never scored 10 PL goals in a season and goals are what you want.
If i really had to pick though, I'd probably go KDB.
Minority.
Sterling all the way
You think he'll start?
He's clearly the best option if he was going to start, but I would be concerned about a 1 point sub.
At this point I think he will. It is still early in the season and they are already 5pts behind and with all those troubles in defence can see them loosing points again. Also he is in form and young, dont think he is tired already.
...can’t be worse than the last 3 captain blanks I’ve had 😀
After a mini disaster gameweek taking out rashford king and didn't pick the right striker...
Henderson Button
Coleman VVD Lundstorm Montoya Diop
Salah KDB Mount Sterling Dendock
Haller Pukki Barnes
0.7 ITB and 1 FT
A. Save
B. Salah/Sterling Mount --> Pepe Son
C. VVD Mount ---> Pepe/Son + rico
D. VVD/Coleman ---> Digne/TAA
Thanks in advance boys!@!
A or C
But only C with Son.
I would stay clear of Pepe til he actually gets returns.
Pretty solid team still!
D is quite tempting though
Thanks guys... D is the obvious choice... until the mount semi injury... but B is very wacky and tempting!
Still have WC so things can still be fixed...
Maybe I kinda ignored D cause it looked sideways.
On a second glance it could be good sideways 🙂
Right Lads which combo would you choose?
A) Aurier + Sterling + Mount + Abraham
B) Otamendi + KDB + Cantwell + Auba
B
Just because they’re likely to get more minutes though.
I would try to fit in a Chelsea attacker in B tbh. They have great fixtures after Liverpool.
A, but with KDB and Cantwell as well
For people that still have their WC, when is your plan to use it?
When I need it I guess. Last season I played it in GW19.
Thoughts on Aurier?
Good player, but rotation looms
Would be great if he can stick.
Certainly would, if he was nailed he’d be straight in my team, he’s like a Mendy
This. Wingbacks rotate too much at Spurs.
4 years, 7 months agoSometimes having a boring week, ignoring the kneejerks, just sitting on your hands and saving FT is good!
Its been far too long since I felt semi-content to do this! Normally love early moves and taking loads of hits but I havent taken one yet this season...long may it continue!
