2 more days... time is so slow..
We are over the worst...Pointless international fixtures.
I've been avoiding FPL since the last gameweek. I presume Salah to Bruno is the big move that everyone is doing?
Yep
A) Coufal, DCL
B) Cresswell, Watkins + 1.1m (no specific plan for using it but always nice for flexibility)Both good options. Any way you could have DCL + Watkins?
A
Can Bruno (WBA, Sou) outscore KDB (vs Tot in GW9) + Son (vs Che in GW10) over next 2 games? Is it worth -4?
When you put it that way, probably
This is how it looks really for many of us if you pick between Bruno or KDB this GW.
Very tricky, it can go either way tbh.
I have a mantra playing this game, very simple one that no one cares about these days - if the transfered in player is not a clear upgrade to the transfered out player... dont do it.
Another Bissouma red card possible v/s Grealish?
99% certain of 2pts
He will get a yellow against Grealish for sure so 1 point
Logging back in for the first time since the end of the last game week, had to suck up some price drops and there are some flags to sort...
My initial plan was TAA + Podence > Coufal / other sub 5.0 def + Grealish (-4)
Right move?
1FT 0.0ITB
Martinez Steer
TAA* Zouma Justin Struijk Mitchell*
Salah* Son Bruno Podence Reed
Kane DCL Maupay
Thanks!Seems solid
Thanks. That uncharacteristic early wildcard feels worse with every passing week. Oh well!
Definitely....villa are willing to ship goals but offset by attacking no matter the opposition...they and leeds are sluggers...perfect attacking candidates for fpl irrespective of win/loss/draw
Made the dumbest early transfers last week....
Did Son > Bruno and Jimi > Bamford for -4
Genuinely forgot that Coronavirus was a thing...
Bench is in tatters, so just do the extra -4 to do Salah > KDB?Do it, tis the year for hits
Hits from the bong 🙂
Expecting Leicester to play 5 at the back, they will right?
I would expect them to
This week probably but once the fixtures turn I imagine they will move back to 4 at the back to facilitate another midfielder
If only The Waistcoat Man would do the same.
Southgate?
Yep.
Fill in the blank...?
1. Cancelo
2. Lamptey
3. Kilman
Martinez
Chilwell .......... Van Aanholt
Ziyech Bruno KDB Rashford Grealish
DCL Watkins1
Kilman
This is the time that the better managers overtake the casuals who spunked an early WC on a Mourinho team
This is the time casuals get punished for going fixtures over form
Fixtures dictate form.. casuals dispute that premise
There’s these things called free transfers which mean you can “cash-out” & transfer out players that have scored you a heap of points when their fixtures turn bad and there are better options 😉
Regards,
RegularSalah, Son, Kane owners with obvious other team weaknesses are going to struggle hugely. I wish you luck
Son to Ziyech
Kane to Vardy
2 hits cost only 8 points. Casuals have taken a lead of 50 points.
Better managers now being ranked 3m? I Wildcarded in gw 4 being on 2 mils and now I'm on 200k and I have 7/11 players of the template WC for this gw
What do you guys think about defensiv Leicester assets going forward?
On a WC and trying to decide if I want to get rid of Justin or not. Good fixtures, but a lot of injuries...Ricardo back in training but after a serious injury. Think Justin may just see out the nice games between 10-12 but will be tight.
I would keep. Unlikely that Ricardo will be rushed back after that injury and Leicester haven't exactly being doing badly in his absence.
Pereira is not gonna play before Christmas for sure. It was a long, long injury...
Hi guys....thoughts on this WC? 1.2itb
Mccarthy (button)
Chillwell, james, cancelo (coufal, targett)
KDB, bruno, ziyech, grealish (bissouma)
Kane, bamford, watkins
Wanted double up chelsea defense as differential as everyone seems to have chillwell...planning to get salah in 1 or 2 gw's for kane (betting on price drop to 12.2 on salah)Looks really strong. Would love a wildcard for a team like that
Thanks man...of course could backfire if salah doesn't drop further in price lol
I’ve asked this once before but I’m still tempted to do it - any input appreciated
Already on a -4 with this as my team
Mendy
Cress,lamp,Konsa,semado
Son Zaha Bruno
Kane dcl bamford
Anguissa Mitchell salah
Thinking of going to a -8 for salah to greilish, really want him in my side for the next 6-8 games but already on a hit with a horrendous rankGrealish would have to score 6 pts plus to justify it. I'd say it is just about worth it. What have you got to lose if your rank is already low?!
With this catalogue of injuries and positive Covid tests, we need full playing squads this season.I don’t have much to lose paul psychic octopus.
Would you take a hit here?
Martinez
Vestergaard, Chillwell, Cresswell
Bruno, Son, Grealish, Salah
Kane, Bamford, DCL
Nyland, Anguissa, Mitchell, Dunneonly mitchell to smb if u aim at keeping Mo
Tempted to cap Chilwell but is it risky?
Always feels a bit riskier to captain a defender but if anything they should be better options with three routes to points and Newcastle notably worse down Chilwell's side. Go for it if you feel it is right.
Only issue I have is that I'm worried he won't start
I'm pretty sure he starts. Fit enough for bench for England last night and Emerson/Alonso are nowhere to be seen these days. Any rest will come for Chelsea players in the Krasnodar fixture in a few weeks.
I am also tempted. But having it on DCL atm.
It is risky. So is crossing the road. It's all relative.
Newcastle scored in every home game of the last years Vs Chelsea but if you want captain him.
Would you sacrifice Bruno/Rash(c) this week if it meant having KDB + Ziyech(c) this week?
By getting in KDB a week early I also have a free transfer to do Kane to Vardy(c) next week.
Thoughts?If it feels right for you, just do it!
Currently on -8 after doing Foden/Saiss/Mitro > Ziyech/Coufal/Watkins (confident that all those moves are well capable of repaying the hits with a GW or two).
The question now is whether to make it up to a -12 for Salah > Bruno (c), or bench Salah & captain Grealish?What will Leicester's defence look like when everyone is available? Fofana a slight doubt for Pool game. Castagne, Pereira close to return. Soyuncu could be back in January.
First 3 have trained
Should be Soy/Evans at CB. Ricardo RB. Castagne LB. Peter Shilton in goal.
The only oddity is that Castagne was bought to replace Chilwell at LB, but has bing playing on the right. Meanwhile Justin - a RB - has been playing LB!Justin has been a good pick so far even though I sold him weeks ago. He's worth keeping until he's definitely out.
I had Justin last season straight after Ricardo's injury and have kept this season. Don't expect to see Ricardo playing until New Year. But you asked "when fit".
The point you're missing is it's possible to have T-cells ('immunity') and still test positive. That's all it needs for a player to be ineligible to play under FA protocols.
Castagne can play both wings, he played both wings for Atalanta and Belgium.
I think the idea is to have the ability to play both systems, with 3 at the back and 2 wing backs and the routine line of 4. When everyone is fit and firing I personally think LEI has the perfect squad to play a wing system with 3 at the back. They have amazing wing backs in Pereira and Castagne and the midfield of 3 with Tielemans, Ndidi and Under is PERFECT to play an offensive trio with Barnes, Perez and Vardy.
Martinez, Forster
Chilwell, Lamptey, KWP, Kilman, Mitchell
KDB, Son, Grealish, Sterling, Stephens
Kane, DCL(c), Bamford
1.1 ITB 0 FT
Transfer Plans:
GW 10: Kane to Vardy
GW 11: Roll
GW 12: DCL to Antonio/Watkins and Son to Salah
Suggestions?Final Round Poll!
Pick the best replacements for Robbo + Ferguson (mitchell will be 5th defender)
A) Cancelo + Coufal
B) Cresswell + Lampteyi like B only because they are more nailed to play
bench one:
a. Keane
b. James
c. Lamptey
thxprobably A with marginally the lowest ceiling out of the two
out of the three*
Tough, a or c
Too much noice for Bruno
agree
If I was WCing this week I'd want a few players guaranteed to play every week over Christmas - the unglamorous Harry Maguires of this world.
Also probably a few players who've bounced back from Covid and are likely immune - e.g. Mane.Having Covid certainly does not guarantee immunity Mr Trump. More and more cases of repeat infections being reported daily
He said "likely immune", which is correct
Immunity not proven - people have caught it twice, or at least tested positive (false or otherwise) twice, which is all it takes to not play.
bottomed on last article
Martinez
Chilwell Lamptey Taylor
Salah Son Grealish Foden
Kane Vardy DCL
Steer Saiss Mitchell Alzate
1ft 0.5itb
A) Salah & Foden to De Bruyne & Zaha
B) Salah & Foden to Fernandes & Soucek (allows Son to De Bruyne next week)
Any help appreciatedi d keep foden if i had him, mo to bruno straight swap ?
foden has been killing me
scored a brace yesterday
against a team that would struggle to survive in the championship.
b
B for me
Currently on this team with 2FT and 2.7 ITB:
Martínez (Martin)
Chilwell, Lamptey, Walker-Peters, Robertson (Branthwaite)
Son, Soucek, Grealish, Zaha (Salah)
Kane, Calvert-Lewin (Brewster)
Which plan would you go for?
1. Salah->Mane and then Son->KDB next week.
2. Salah->KDB and then Son->Mane/Salah next week1 for me
2 because you'd end up with kdb/salah in 2gw instead of kdb/mane
LIVERPOOL defence.
Robertson, Matip...
Please pick 2 others who will start.
a) Phillips
b) Neco
c) Tsimikas
Would you pick on of the cheap ones through WC?i wouldn't, i'd be targeting strikers who are playing against them
Milner may get a game at right back. wouldn't touch the cheap options.
Milner and Fabhinho
Is it worth doing Brewster to Watkins for a -4 to be able to field an 11?
yes
yeah thats a good move
Dean Smith says Heaton back soon to usurp Martinez
Salah expected to have another test today?
he had a positive test yesterday, i don't think he will have another
He should just give the wrong answers to get a negative result 😉
3 years, 5 months ago
Sell Salah!!!!
