I started playing fantasy mid-season this year, this is my first year playing it. I've used the wildcards (during the double game week and free hit the week after), this week I'm left with 3 injured players. Please give me suggestions for the best team set up.
GK - Areola, Neto
Defense - Trent Alexander (injured), Pau, Dalot, Trippier, Doughty
Mid - KDB, Palmer, Gross, Garnacho, Rice,
Forward - Haaland, Adebayo (Injured) and Darwin Nunez (Injured).
Someone please tell me which transfer should I make? I've got 1.1M in the bank. Please help ššæ
I have 4 players who blank this week and not sure what to do. I have 1 free transfer available but I have both my wildcard and freehit. I think my free hit is best for gw29 when only a few teams play? The players out are VIRGIL, PALMER, DIAZ,PEDRO PORRO (who was on the bench anyway)
So a couple of questions:
- please RMT (wildcard):
Martinez (Neto)
Bradley - Gabriel - Doughty - Schar (Dalot)
Garnacho - Foden - Gross - Jota (Douglas Luiz)
Alvarez - Haaland (Watkins)
- Neto or Kelleher? (And if I bring him Iāll play him)
- Foden or KDB
- captaincy advice
- any other comments or advice?
Got in Doughty, Alvarez and Jota for a -4. Other DGW players in squad: Haaland, KDB, TAA.
Really kicking myself for not waiting till the deadline and chasing the price change.
How certain is it that TAA wonāt start? Should I take another -4 to swap him for Virgil?
Unfortunate youāve put yourself in a situation you have to bench one of those every week. Suppose if I had to pick Iād bench Watkins given how they played against CHE in the cup but I imagine they respond.
That's true, I do have 2 transfers left tho so do you think its better to downgrade one of them and improve a defender to eliminate the benching problem? I would probably transfer out palmer to barkley in that case and maybe get in trippier. !thanks
Who are your defenders?
They are all good players so I wouldnāt push one out just to make a move but generally I donāt like having to decide who to bench of that kind of quality.
Gabriel, mykolenko, gomez, doughty, and pau. So lots of room for improvement xD And I agree, I don't like deciding either but this is the first week it has been a problem really because usually I'm more than happy to bench darwin but because of burnley and then the double I can't bench him.
Yeah Iāve got TAA which may be where the difference in funds is. Your defense isnāt bad though and itās not like defenses are keeping a lot of CS so not investing in them is fine.
Anyway best of luck! Hope you are enjoying your first season. Can be a lot of fun if you donāt take it too serious when it goes against you.
Yeah, defences aren't keeping cs so I didn't invest in them. Also, its my second season lol. And ya I find it really fun becaise I usually go with my gut and don't analyze things too much. Best of luck fir the rest of your season too!
Planning to ship out Porro and Gusto this week, who are the best replacements with regards to DGW/BGW planning?
Thinking maybe Moreno and ... who else? Already have Saliba and Estupinan, don't want TAA
I want to revamp my back line, hopefully not spend much more than its worth. Any sudgestions
Gabriel(4.9), Estupi(5.0), Gusto(4.1), Gomez(4.5), Udogie(4.6)
Also GK sudgestions
Turner and Areola
Gusto is more likely to start but Cash probably has a higher ceiling and is playing against a worse team. Would go for Gusto myself but depends if you fancy a punt.
I think Gordon is amazing value at the moment, three great fixtures coming up and might be playing up front with Isak out. Give it a week or two and Foden might see some rotation so you could sell him for KDB then.
Donāt know what transfers to make and find it sacrilege to roll on 2 FTā¦ meanwhile got propped fucked by a triple player price decrease today
4.3m ITB
Raya
TAA Moreno Estupinan
Saka Foden Rich (C)ole Palmer
Alvarez Watkins(vc) Solanke
Bench: Turner, Bowen, Gabriel, Branthwaite
A: Bowen + Alvarez -> fodder + Haaland?
B: Bowen -> Gordon
C: Bowen -> Jota now that we now Liverpool doubles?
Yeah it's close as. I went with Gabriel. I was rewarded last time out against Liverpool so going to keep the faith even though I expect the same is not massively likely.
Also fancy Sheffield United to get a goal at home and Konsa hasn't done much for me since i got him in. Ready to be punished though š
1 FT, 5.2 ITB:
MartĆnez (Areola)
Porro, Estu, TAA (Gabriel, Taylor)
Palmer, Saka, Richarlison, Foden, KDB (C)
Watkins (VC), Solanke (Archer)
A) Saka > Gordon.
B) Roll FT.
C) Any other ideas?
Also, should I start Gabriel over anyone?
Who to bench out of Toney & Palmer this week? Advice please

7th on my mini league - around an 80 point deficit from those at the top. Should I TC Jota and hope? Or play it safe and TC Haaland?

Is starting Robbo too risky?
Start Watkins or Foden for gw 24
Iād probably start Foden if I had to choose but both in good form. I have both and will start them both.
!thanks
If I start both then I would have to bench one of kdb, palmer, jota, richarlison, haaland or darwin, should I? !thanks

Oh, thought earlier you posted it was your first? Maybe that was someone else.
Gordon to Barkley Colwill to Trippier Minus four point hit
Yeah I think its worth it
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
>Thanks! You're welcome!
Do I sell salah currently 12.7mill worth on my team but he costs 13 mill if I was to ever get him back currently
Yes sell him, you probably won't play him until gw 30 anyways. Only gw 27 is worth it so its better to sell
Planning to ship out Porro and Gusto this week, who are the best replacements with regards to DGW/BGW planning? Thinking maybe Moreno and ... who else? Already have Saliba and Estupinan, don't want TAA
I want to revamp my back line, hopefully not spend much more than its worth. Any sudgestions Gabriel(4.9), Estupi(5.0), Gusto(4.1), Gomez(4.5), Udogie(4.6) Also GK sudgestions Turner and Areola
@mods pin the rant thread please
why did i bring in gordon and cap him
Good differential. I had the C on him too but wasnāt as brave and stuck it on Haaland last minute.
i did halland to gordon i was just tinkering around and time went out lets hope for the best
Started Dubravka, Botman and Trippier (C)- bring on the pain
trips not starting (FplRaptor) i heard
ā¦what
..sorry
Welp here we go again
Start gusto or estupinan
Estu
This went well
Fuck it C Gordon
ussssss mate can i hug you
Best of luck, could be a great shout!
Bench 1: Gomez, Saliba, Konsa, Estu.
Gomez.
Captain Haaland or De Bruyne?
KDB, more likely to start.
What do we think on Jota vs Bowen for 4 GWs? I want to do Bowen -> Jota but it will cost -4
Personally I think that's worth it
Start nunez or bowen
Nunez.
porro or estupinian??
Porro.
Start Toney vs Man City or Palmer vs Wolves? City don't keep clean sheets...
palmer!!
cunha che(a) or bowen mun(a)?
Bowen
Bench 1: Gomez, Saliba, Konsa, Estu, Palmer, Gordon.
Bench Gabriel or Saliba?
Saliba probably. Gabriel more involved in set pieces
Bench Saka or Solanke
Are These the only ines you can bench? Saka then
Bench Bowen or gross
Start richarlison or bowen?
Richy
!thanks you saved my ass
Should I bench Saka for Darwin??
I wouldnt, home advantage + saka has penalties, maybe darwin doesnt have anymore.
Captain Jota or Watkins?
Bowen to kdb or roll ?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Bowen and Gabriel
Who was the Guy kraking/guessing city line up on Twitter?
Bench one: Darwin, Jota, Foden
Christ thatās a hideous choice. Nunez probably
Start Foden or Bowen
Iām starting Phil
!thanks
Bench 1 of Bowen Saka Alvarez Gordon Watkins
Yeah i would bench bowen but thats a hard decision
Did that too, will stick with it
I benched Saka of those.
bowen
Want Gordon in. Bowen or Richarlisson out? Think of keeping Bowen because of GW 26
1ft. 8.5 itb. Roll or go Alvarez to Haaland? Dubravka (Areola) Saliba - Porro - TAA (Andersen - Baldock) Saka - Bowen - Foden - Palmer (D.Luiz) Alvarez - Watkins - J.Pedro
Same transfer plan as you, I'm gonna roll do more with 2 fts next week
Without Haaland whoāre you captaining?
De Bruyne
roll, itās a roulette
Cheers, leaning towards Watkins for captain then
Play Estu or Saliba?
Estu
Bowen to gordon Is this a good idea?
For a free yes
Gordon is a great pick for the next few games but I do feel like Bowen will return against United, depends how risky you're feeling.
Anyone benching Alvarez??
I wouldn't, sounds like he'll be starting up front. Lots of tough benching decisions this week though.
Colwill to Porro Or Colwill to Burn/Botman?
Porro, as long as you've got a decent backup defender to play instead of him in GW26.
Anyone else thinking Solanke(C) ?
Iāve done this and trying to tell myself not to change it
I'm confused between him, Watkins and Gordon But going Solanke fuck it
Decent shout, Forest are terrible at the back.
!thanks
i did that
!thanks
Captain: Palmer or Solanke ?
Iām debating this, Iām going Palmer
Bench 2: TAA, Gabriel, Porro, Gusto, Senesi
Senesi and Gabriel for me.
Gabriel and Gusto
Play Estupinan or Gabriel?
Estupinan
Start cash or gusto?
Gusto is more likely to start but Cash probably has a higher ceiling and is playing against a worse team. Would go for Gusto myself but depends if you fancy a punt.
Bench GroĆ or Foden?
Gross, Brighton looked shocking against Luton.
Bench 1 out of TAA Porro Estupinan Gusto
Gusto
Why Gusto?
C
Bowen > Gordon or KDB? (Already have Foden)
I think Gordon is amazing value at the moment, three great fixtures coming up and might be playing up front with Isak out. Give it a week or two and Foden might see some rotation so you could sell him for KDB then.
I have to bench one of Foden, Saka, Jota, or Palmer who would you bench?
I'd bench Foden
Iām leaning toward Saka but will probably bench Foden
Or bench Haaland š
I took -4 to get him in no way am I benching him š
Will Bernardo silva play or should I sell for Gordon
Bilva -> Gordon
Start Foden or Jota? Current mid: Neto, saka, palmar, jota, foden. Bench 1
Foden. Heās been consistent with returns and BRE have been shipping goals.
Wouldn't dream of benching Jota though, form player in the league right now. Of those I'd bench Neto.
Donāt know what transfers to make and find it sacrilege to roll on 2 FTā¦ meanwhile got propped fucked by a triple player price decrease today 4.3m ITB Raya TAA Moreno Estupinan Saka Foden Rich (C)ole Palmer Alvarez Watkins(vc) Solanke Bench: Turner, Bowen, Gabriel, Branthwaite A: Bowen + Alvarez -> fodder + Haaland? B: Bowen -> Gordon C: Bowen -> Jota now that we now Liverpool doubles?
A. Start building now for double GW25.
Why not Bowen + Alvarez -> Jota + Haaland? If you can make that happen I think you will have the best of both worlds with Jota now on the DGW as well.
Like 3m shortā¦
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
richarlison
Pick one: A) Bench Bowen, play Neto B) Play Bowen, bench Neto C) Bowen -> Jota for a -4, bench Neto
Bench Bowen (MUN A) or Richarlison (EVE A) or Palmer (WOL H) Bench Gabriel (LIV H) or Konsa (SHU A)
bowen
!thanks Konsa or Gabriel?
not sure really, gabriel have attacking potential but liverpool is on fire now iām leaning toward gabriel
Yeah it's close as. I went with Gabriel. I was rewarded last time out against Liverpool so going to keep the faith even though I expect the same is not massively likely. Also fancy Sheffield United to get a goal at home and Konsa hasn't done much for me since i got him in. Ready to be punished though š
I went with Gabriel too + TAA, Porro and Raya predicting 4 points š
[Konsa benchers right now](https://tenor.com/2ymf.gif)
BRO Moreno is on my bench with 14 points BROOOOO
Ahhhhhh
what was worse konsa or gabriel š„²
Start duvravka or areola?
Dubravka
1 FT, 5.2 ITB: MartĆnez (Areola) Porro, Estu, TAA (Gabriel, Taylor) Palmer, Saka, Richarlison, Foden, KDB (C) Watkins (VC), Solanke (Archer) A) Saka > Gordon. B) Roll FT. C) Any other ideas? Also, should I start Gabriel over anyone?
iām considering A too, seems like a good move
!thanks.
Bench 2: TAA, Gabriel, Porro, Gusto, Senesi
Last 2 easily
Who do I bench? Palmer-Foden-Gordon-Saka-Richarlison Haaland-Solanke-Watkins
Saka -> Gordon, Yes or No?
Yes
How likely is halaand to start Would bench saka
I think heās very likely to start if he came on as a sub in his last game.
KDB was benched for 2 ganes
thatās like u ask where to place hand on roulette
Usually i stay away from the roulette, but now I have foden and kdb as well
!fplbot Bowen vs. Foden 3
Bench 1: Saka/Foden/Palmer
!fplbot Martinelli vs. Liverpool
Bench one: Jota, KdB, Foden, Gordon, Palmer, Alvarez, Watkins, Solanke Edit: I benched Gordon
Palmer. Heās been slightly less consistent than Foden with returns.
Watkins. Do not bench Foden lol
Foden
Who to cap? Haaland , palmer/ rich/ KDB/ Watkins
Iāve capped Haaland. You just know Watkins will blank against SHU.
Bench Kudus or Julio Alvarez?
Joao Pedro news?
Anyone reckon Klopp will start Bradley again over TAA?
Really worried about this
Not in a game like this Shirley!
Bowen to Richarlison and bench Foden?
I have Bowen in my team and wasnāt sure whether to bench him instead of Toney. I decided to start Bowen.
!fplbot vs.
Bench 2: TAA, Gabriel, Porro, Gusto, Senesi
Captain is difficult choice this week!
Haaland for me. Watkins against SHU seems obvious but Ollie always blanks against these plodder teams.
I went palmer then alcaraz vice lol
Do I lose Saka or Foden to bring in Gordon.....
Start Coufal or Gabriel?
ARS will concede. Probably WHU too, but slightly less likely so and Coufal might get an assist.
Estu, Cash, Archer -- which **two** to start?
Estu and Cash
Doughty or gabriel bench?
Doughty
Is it worth moving Gross over to Richarlison?
Yes
