If Jota is getting 70+ minutes it's all good. I would want to see that first then no worries.

Johnson for me

Once Son leaves Spurs are probably a watch and see proposition

Richa over Kulu imo

Two of Bowen Jota Richa Foden as Salah and Son replacements

gw21 we could have Maddison back

Kulusevski for me although I am a bit wary of the impact of Son not being available. Kulu seems like he's everywhere when Spurs attack and he can play both at RW and as a 10 of sorts. Need to see a bit more from Richarlison, scored in his last 3 of course but only had 2 shots combined in his last 2 so I'm not so sure how sustainable that is, Kulusevski has been very consistent for chance creation, 3rd highest in the league for chances created in 2023 (behind Bruno and Salah)

No City?

If not Archer to Alvarez(?)

Alvarez

Alvarez has to be the better pick.

Alvarez suits me

Big Brains.

Caveat at that analysis is slightly flawed as Haaland could have been second best in every week by a point in theory.

Would be interesting to see the top 3 options each gameweek.

Who was a better captain than Haaland in gw4 (20 points)?

I get the point but I don't think saying that Haaland hasn't outscored every other player in a GW is that significant. If we're doing that then we should also compare the regularity of his returns against random/one-off hauls from players like Varane, Murphy, Bernardo, Nketiah, Tavernier, Ben Mee or

I like White myself

Did you watch pool vs Arsenal?

Zinchenko was absolutely awful... I was going to get my boots out the shed and give old moany face a bell to get me in the squad.

Explosiveness, Zinc, White/Gabriel, Saliba

Safety of starts: Saliba

As an Arsenal supporter, I get nervous when I see Zinchenko in the first 11.

A

Probably A but I really like Foden, maybe Foden and Alvarez?

5 kids on the Spurs bench - Dorrington, Philips, Santiago, Donley and Veliz

😆

What ? Haha

Hoping for an Alvarez hat trick, despite the lack of rest.

Replay fail 🙂

oops

🙂

Who hulked it haha , love it

Think this ends 1-3
Probably a jammy penalty for Alvarez owners

Thank you.

How many years did you go gravless, FPL Virgin?

you can save ft and prepare for Haaland

or do Cash to Trent this week and replenish the Haaland fund next week with Salah/Son sale to Bowen/Rich/Jota

Above average, only 3 here

Nice one. 5 for me

and I have 4

now we need someone with 2 or 7 to add a comment

4 + (c) for moi

4 for me, but 1 attacker is againstv2 of my defenders limiting possible points.

And I have; drum roll:
4

yeah, will be those for a while as well. unless levy digs into his pockets

Son, Porro, Gross. Need some disgusting scores!

Zero chance of a Spurs clean sheet

id only consider selling when maddison is back and takes over set-pieces.

i guess this also depends when you brought him, i can see why at 5.5mil he might seem overpriced

To be honest I only signed him for his attacking potential. He is overdue a game where he gets a goal and assist so will hold out for that!

he's been good for me since gw3, nope

Don't think anyone is really consistently keeping clean sheets (only 2 this GW for instance so far, BOU + LIV) so happy to hold for now on his attacking threat.

I'm thinking about getting him in. Even without Son and Romero their fixtures are good enough to keep getting points.

Could see VDV back by gw21 and there may be a new CB signing early January

injuries

Good for someone like me. Had zero bench this GW. Played Taylor against Pool

nkunku imo. i like jesus but 0.6 difference and nkunku when fully fit will get more minutes

Haha brilliant

you seem to be on a bit of a nostalgia trip today

never played a prank on any members here but would love someone to pretend to be mark and play a prank on virg

Are you high right now?

Biggest FPL prank I played on myself was TC on Andy Carroll.

I once played a prank on an annoying work colleague for two years.

The guy had a hire car every week and always had trouble adjusting his seat as he was short. Every time he came up the office I would go and adjust his chair a small amount so every time he gets in he needs to adjust it.

It got pretty funny tbh, especially when me or other people got in the car with him and he would be complaining about the bloody seat resetting itself all the time.

Every so often I wouldn’t adjust it at all, just to see if it was ingrained inside his head, which it was lol. I eventually quit that job and I’m fairly certain he is probably still adjusting and cursing the seats lol

i dont really like what pep said yesterday about foden. said needs him closer to the box for the time being without haaland. when haaland and kdb come back he'll just go back to the wing imo, and hes not involved enough there

bowen for me

Bowen

Bowen long term

You'd think Brighton Spurs without any thought. The truth is West Ham always do terribly at the Emirates. Could there be 4 goals in each game? Wouldn't be surprised.

The one with 4 full backs

BHA-TOT in theory!

Has to be Bri-Tot surely? They both have crap defences.

Probably Everton - Man City on paper

Honestly looks pretty well set as is
Could consider a FT on one of the bench players or GK change and roll

Tough. I’m in the same situation as you above^ Clueless…

I'm not that keen on any of them to be frank with you, especially A. Gone right off the idea of losing Salah early after seeing Burn getting exploited over and over v Forest, and now no need for it with Haaland still not in the squad.

I guess C makes sense to split up double Spurs defence but Moreno/Digne may still be a minefield unless we know Digne is out for a while. I wouldn't play Konsa ahead of any of your current 3. Or maybe the GK switch (but I don't like Raya).

Think benching Solanke could be a mistake with these Spurs CBs.

Sorry that seems a lot of negativity! 🙂

D

Areola might have something to say

It's OK, Arteta will still play him in a cast

Suppose there is a first time for everything this season, I think a brace of points

About time

It would be nice

He's been rubbish for FPL recently. The vultures are circling.

At least you have him

Son yeah, rest no

0-0 Brighton 1st cs of the season. Just because everyones convinced it'll be a thriller and football loves to annoy us
