is KDB to Salah for free a good move?
Captain Salah?
What?! Sell kdb this week?
No way
Kdb has great fixtures starting this weekend
Wow.
We've come to this.
You're the first I've seen to consider selling KDB!
Now that’s a new one!!!
Wait, what?
could be
Salah could outscore KDB so on a free maybe. but hard to justify
Any circa 4m defenders likely to play this weekend?
Hardly. I need one at 4.2 but it seems there isn't such.
Salisu in the future could be an option at 4.2.
Everton's N'Kounkou (4.0m I believe, please check) is expected on here to replace Digne at LWB as that is what happened a few GW's ago when Digne was suspended.
I've just been looking at this to decide whether I can bring Nkounkou in (I need a cheap deal).
He came in fir Digne when he was suspended three games back, but has not even been in the squad the two games since.
So hard to call where he is in the pecking order. He is only young and very inexperienced. He played for their U23s the week after he played in the first team instead of Digne, for example - sent straight back down to Acdemy football while the first team were off to play Man United.
But I've come to the (optimistic and convenient) conclusion that his left-footedness means Ancelotti will elevate him to at least the squad, quite possibly starting XI, while Digne is out.
Hence, I'm buying him. Tonight, as I have a turd about to fall.
they could be inclined to go with Delph at LB or a 3ATB type setup.
That is one possibility, yeah. A few options.
The big fear is that Ancelotti played him and then dumped him straight into kids team, so maybe he really didn't like what he saw and decided he's not ready.
On the other hand, with defensive bodies returning, perhaps he just couldn't find room for him on the bench. But now with the need for a natural left-sider, he could come back.
Wish I could wait for press conference tomorrow but need to do it now to save an annoying -1.
Nkoundou for everton
Neco Williams
Any thoughts here? 1FT and 1.8itb
Mccarthy (Button)
Zouma Holding Justin (Konsa Mitchell)
Bruno JRod Son Grealish (Bissouma)
DCL Werner Kane
Nice side. As you know, only thing missing is lack of City. Would require a hit as I wouldn't ditch Bruno to get KDB this week. Kane to Vardy is an option if you're hapyp to go with just one Spurs asset.
Even saving a FT still leaves you with a strong side.
Cheers. You echo my thoughts exactly! It's between saving a FT or doing Kane/Werner > Vardy.
Saiss, Zaha, Son > Targett, Jota, KDB (C) for (-8)?
-8 is big but given you are taking out 2 non playing players and these days we need decent bench, I say do it. Will pay out over next few gws for sure
pull the trigger. I'd be tempted to keep son if you can and just do -4
Some help here gents.
Grealish kane jimmy -> kdb vardy Watkins for -8
Given Watkins is on penalties I think he is worth it.
I dont like hits at all but There is just no other way I can get kdb in my team as I wanna keep fernandes and son
I would prefer getting jesus/aguero so i can do it for -4 for 2 gws but who knows which one starts.
Team:
Martinez steer
Lamptey Mitchell Dallas coufal chilwell
Grealish* son fernandes hamez bissouma
Kane* jimmy* DCL
Or I can simply do just jimmy to vardy and call it a day lol.
One does not simply make a transfer.
Not sure why you need to do it all this week though. Maybe just the simple transfer and captain Vardy/DCL.
Haha true
So you ate saying for gw 10 pts,
Grealish + Kane > kdb + Watkins -8?
Seems sideways for me. Grealish is better than Watkins and KDB is better than Kane, but you're sacrificing 8 points.
Not sure how much money you have, but maybe you can sell Jimmy for Bammy and Sonny for Kevvy. Both upgrades
Well I need vardy. I feel he would do well next few gws
And I dont want to sell son.
Grealish is better than Watkins but since Watkins has penalties it might just be even.
Oh well think I can push for a week. Will just do jimmy to vardy this week and re-consider plans next week. I just will be hiding for city game this gw.
Have Bale in draft league. Didn’t follow the spurs game tonight but see he didn’t get any goals or assists and assume will be on bench again at weekend. Will probs just bench him and wait for him to play in easy games.
Poor signing so far.
He didn’t look great mate, sorry!
Never rated him as a signing. Just throwing better players into a team doesn’t necessarily make a team better.
Not FPL but i know a lot of the community are playing Fanteam this season. Am doing 'ok' in about 3.3k of 25k players right now but lots of issues and have decided now is the time for me to wildcard. How does this look and is there anything standing out to you like a sore thumb that you would change? Thanks :
Meslier / Martinez
Chilwell / Dias / Riedewald / Masuaku / Kilman
Salah / KDB / Fernandes / Grealish / Soucek
DCL / Jota / Antonio
0ITB.
Grealish or Jota for Zaha?
Jota if you have Watkins
Grealish if you have salah
Don't have Watkins. And have Salah
Cheers.
Grealish. Still the best glue midfield pick imo. You can keep him and not think about him for 10 weeks easily.
Thoughts on Rashford to KDB for -4? 2.3 itb, 1FT
Yes or no?
Martinez
Chilwell | Coufal I Konsa
Bruno | Son | Rashford | Grealish I Jota
Kane | DCL |
Forster I Brewster I Dallas I Lamptey*
Cheers
No for me
Yes if you captain
Would you cap Kev?
No
WC team. What you guys think?
McCarthy
Chilwell Cancelo Justin
Grealish Salah Bruno KDB(c)
DCL Watkins Bamford
Forster Masuaku Kilman Bissouma
Great team
Lacking Chelsea attack
Similar to mine but I have Ziyech + Vardy in place of Salah + Bamford until GW12
Grealish or jrod.
jrod
Grealish.
JRod this week, Grealish longer term
Jrod this week
Grealish
Evening all — thoughts much appreciated for this sorry lot 🙂
A) TAA Foden > 4.4 (Kilman) KDB, -4
B) TAA Son > Dias Salah, -4 (funds for Bruno > KDB next wk)
C) something else — 1FT 2.2 ITB
Martinez
TAA* Chilwell James
Bruno Son Ziyech Foden
Kane DCL Watkins
(Steer Lamptey* Mitchell Burke)
A looks good!
Best captain out of options
A) Mane
B) Bruno
C) DCL
I like B or C
B,C,A for me.
Silly question, but is there any chance Mane gets a rest and Klopp goes with MS, RF, DJ as his front three?
I'd never count it out. I'm really tempted with Bruno as well
No chance
B
B
B
Good enough or get rid of Zaha?
Martinez,
Coufal, Chilwell, Robbo
Grealish, Bruno, Son, Jota
DCL, Kane, Bamford
Forster, Zouma, Zaha, Lamptey
1.2 bank
That’s a solid team, hold
Cheers
Good team and squad - would hold.
Ta
good enough for sure
Thanks
Probably can’t get rid of Son having Hamez in my team?
I mean, Hamez out should be the priority?
I'd say so. You'd want to get rid off the man out of form rather than the man in form.
Not for next 2 gws
James nailed on for all set pieces now Digne out
Zaha —> Mahrez (free)
Or
Zaha and Chilwell —> KDB and Fuchs (-4)
I mentioned the a Mahrez move could be game changer IF he plays at his best
I’m torn with Mahrez or Foden but if I did the -4 I’d captain KDB
No rush, got till 6.30 tomorrow
A
Can’t decide how to spend 6.8ITB, thoughts please?
A) Soucek to KdB
B) Brewster to Vardy
And if B, would you do Bruno to KdB for a -4?
It’s tough because A allows an easier route to Salah in the near future.
Thanks
Honestly I’d toss a coin between those 2 transfers and take the decision out your hands this week
It’s been doing my head in all week, so tough.
I envy those with both
For your additional question on B, no.
A feels better because KDB is still a decent captain choice, and for next week too.
Which is a better “plan”?
Captain Vardy GW 11 vs Sheffield
GW 10- Burke ➡️ Jota (bench Bowen vs AVL)
GW 12- DCL,Grealish,Bowen ➡️ Salah Soucek Davis
or
Captain Sterling GW 11 vs Fulham
GW 10- Son ➡️ Sterling ( have Kane)
GW 12- Sterling, DCL,Bowen ➡️ Salah Jota Wilson/Bamford
2nd scenario is better
But
Selling dcl can backfire
I've always felt this was one of the better of the FFS articles.
Too many options. Still have 1st WC and bad rank so willing to take risks in next few...
McCarthy
Chilwell -- Justin -- TAA **
Fernandes -- Son -- Grealish -- Soucek
DCL -- Kane -- Wilson
4.0 -- Targett -- Bissouma -- Mitchell [1ft + 2.9m ITB]
A) TAA + Grealish --> Cancelo + KDB (c) for (-4)
B) TAA + Kane --> Cancelo + Vardy (c) for (-4)
C) TAA + Wilson --> Cancelo + Vardy (c) for (-4)
D) Kane + Bissouma --> Bamford + KDB (C) for (-4)
E) Just TAA --> Cancelo / Kane --> Vardy / Son --> KDB (FT)
Martinez
Cancelo-Chilwell-Justin
Foden-Bruno-Son-James-Grealish
DCL-Kane
Steer Brewster-Michell-Lamptey
A. KDB (C) for James
B. Vardy (C) for Kane
C. Vardy (C) and KDB for Kane and James (-4)
A
B if you must
But I would consider saving FT.
Really, and captain Bruno?
Why not Hames or DCL.
Hames was good in the first half against Fulham. He ran out of gas in the second, but I think he's defo a captain material for this week.
A
4.2 itb, 1 FT
Mid: Grealish, Bruno, Son, Zaha, Hendrick
Zaha -> ? (got 11,3)
a) Hames
b) Jota
c) Salah (& Saiss -> 4,2) minus 4
d) KDB (& Saiss -> 4,8) minus 4
Huge benching dilemma, on Grealish right now. Partly because Barkley is missing partly because I own Cresswell.
Ziyech Rashford Son Grealish KDB
Bamford DCL Werner
However feel like Che Spurs will be low scoring and leaning on one of the 3.
Some headache you put yourself into. No idea tbh
Spread the risk and bench Ziyech
If not then Bamford
I think Grealish was out of gas in the last GW. Previously he played in 3 matches for England, and he looked tired in second half against Brighton.
I think he'll be well rested for this weekend. However, WHU are pretty decent defensively, so he might not be a bad benching option out of those.
Wouldn't bench Bamford against poor Everton defence.
Would you start Mitchell or Ayling. If I started Mitchell I would have ayling first sub anyway. Is there any chance he starts?
Don't think so. PVA is the best CP player when Zaha is not there.
G2G?
McCarthy
Robertson Chillwell Konsa
Fernandes Grealish Jota KDB (C)
Kane DCL Bamford
Subs: Semedo, Anguissa, Lampety
gtg
Solid
Please select one:
A) Saiss + Zaha > Dias + Jota and 1.9 itb. (-4)
B) Saiss + Zaha + Son > Targett + Jota + KDB (c) and 0.6 itb. (-8)
Current team:
McCarthy
Chilwell - Justin - Saiss*
Bruno - Son - Grealish - Zaha*
Kane - Werner - DCL
Forster - Mitchell - Stephens* - Lamptey*
1.9itb.
I'll say this -8 is rarely ever worth it..
At least not if you care about your mini leagues.
Yeah I know, it's tough and I don't like hits at all but my team suddenly looks weak and no stand out captaincy option either apart from maybe Fernandes. What would you do in my situation? Would be useful to get insight.
A
Torn on DCL, Salah or Kane C
Currently on DCL but Salah starting to creep in as possibility..
Opinions welcome.
Between Salah and DCL for me. Probs dcl just for me!
Hows the team look? 0.2 Mill in the bank. 0 FT.
Martinez
Reguillon Chilwell Coufal
Fernandes Son Ziyech Grealish
DCL Vardy(c) Kane
Forster; Mitchell, riedewald, KWP
no issues here.
would you bring in Bruno or KDB for a -4?
Would lose Hames Rodriguez
Already have Salah and Son
Kdb deffo
I transferred in J Rodriguez one day before he got injured.
I transferred out J Rodriguez one day before Digne got injured.
Enjoy the points, folks.
