Brighton v Leeds team news: Raphinha returns as Duffy is benched

Possibly but you brought Zaha in after he scored two games in a row... Now you wanna get rid after two blanks in a row... Hmmm

If you don't have Ramsdale, maybe White or so?

Don't quote me on this, but I think it was a tactical benching to counter Leeds' style of play?

I consider Johnson from WH

Yep, pumped my money into the defense and mid atm, not much going on up top

It’s hilarious that Firmino was a 9m forward and Jota a 7.5m midfielder

#Sh*t more like.

Hopefully a forward option appears soon

None

Fodenfreude!

Think he either starts or is not involved at all mate personally from Peps comments saying about they won’t risk people

I hope hes rested so I get yammy Williams points

Yes it is bud, really nasty

Looks good mate! I would play Toney over Livra. My policy is always to go for the attacker over a defender in most cases, but that's just me. GL!

Potentially A but am personally waiting until after tomorrow’s match…

Wait on Foden fitness. Think he has a hauls or two in him for next few matches

Kane + 7

I like Semedo to Alonso. Nice differential

Semedo to Alonso is a big upgrade imo!

Thats a phrase used by non-gameday posters, and ignored by the riff raff

I’ve never seen that but I’d guess it’s about asking yourself if you made the right decision with the information available at the time - often that can be the case but points wise it doesn’t work out anyway. I guess maybe aimed at making people feel better when things go wrong?

I think it’s just human nature to give yourself credit than you should when a move comes off even if a large part of it was luck

Plenty of delusional people in the fpl community who think their sir alex after making a couple of ft’s

Simplified it means that you justified the changes, or stayed put, having carefully considered the reasoning behind your decision.

If it doesn't pan out as expected you can accept it as just unlucky in a sense and not because you randomly made changes to your team or chose to leave it alone.

In essence, you make your bed as tidy as you can make it and then happily lay in it.

Probably the latter, but Gray worth keeping an eye in over the next week or two

Win and clean sheet v Everton
Win and clean sheet v Wolves

May be tighter than last 2 games, Wolves anyway

Wood

I’m gonna go king

Foden to Son is my planned move, already have Jota, will decide after tomorrow’s games

Similar situation, see above

General consensus is Foden is out tomorrow, so then is he a keep with (wat) next, or sell for Jota (eve) ?

Holding.

If I was going to jump I needed to do it about 12 hours ago.

I still think he outscores Jota in the medium term.

Not moving. Foden has a great run and has been very involved in City's attacking play, sure Jota's haul hurts but can't have them all. I trust Foden will get returns

Cannot get to Jota without outing Foden?

Horror show?
Looks awesome!

Horror show hahahaah after scoring more than most today eh

Would hardly call it a horror show. Save.

Should be banned for calling that a horror show. Trolling,

Team looks fine for next GW. As of this second, I'd be saving a FT.

Feasible to sell ASM, but whilst he's up against Norwich it's perhaps not a priority.

a.

How long is Saka out for?

C at this stage

My rank dropped 180% already this week. Slowly claw your way up just to have a complete stinker and make the last 6 weeks completely pointless.

Bold move mate and it paid off

I feel you with the no Jota, damaged my rank massively, gonna be a long day today thinking about it haha

Literally in the exact same position regarding all players. Jota (and Ramsdale) not getting bonus helps, and not a huge jump on Salah captainers with TAA but it all helps. I really could do with Foden turning up tomorrow though as if Allan is out I'll be getting in a big fat 0 for Livramento

Not convinced. Villa tightening things up, whilst Palace have defended poorly the last few games. They have been particularly bad at set pieces & guess who is on set pieces for Leeds.

Newcastle looked rotten today and they have to start playing some football and getting some goals

Could leave them open and I recon they get bashed a couple of times but that’s just me

Newcastle Everton & Leeds look there for the taking

I just don't think a whipping boys strategy is working this year. You have to back the best teams this year regardless of opposition, and try to avoid mediocre teams even against poor opposition.

[Evangelio] BSAD comes out with 7 players to play the second half, and as soon as they start, Joao Monteiro (the goalkeeper who was playing as a midfielder) throws himself onto the grass, as if injured. Match is suspended, 7-0 Benfica

35(-4) pretty poor, still got Cancelo, Alonso, James, Toney and Kane to play so hoping for a climb to tomorrow

Hello roggy!

Bad day for me mate, 28 -4 but still 6 to play so if Alonso and Kane can do something it could still be ok !

51, with (only) 4 to play. Up to ~40k for now.

Jota in worked well. Gallagher less so (could have gone for and played Alonso, but that'll be this week's move).

Being conservative working okay for now. Feel like I have a plan for the next few GWs, until something else happens to shift it.

54 for me and up to 28k currently. Jota, White and Sanchez coming in for me, but disappointing blank from Jimenez. Hoping for Alonso haul tomorrow!

Nah. You can get great advice from people who have a bad rank.

They could have loads of historically good ranks & just be having a bit of bad luck at the moment.

Most folks link teams, others don’t?

Do you have James?

Vardy and Mbeumo definitely more disposable than Foden I think, but the Wilson move is a little short-term.
