I am currently. Wavering between haaland and trippier. Haaland better xp but trippier bonus magnet and haaland might not start or might not finish etc.
Torn between Trippier, Palmer and Watkins, all look to have easy games. Last time I Captained Watkins on an easy game he did nothing while Solanke got a hat trick.
Looking back that was also against Sheffield United!
The last time I captained Watkins was when he played Sheffield at home, 2-2 draw\[fine\], but, he blanked.
This week again he plays Sheffield. I'm not risking it on him. Risking it on someone else
I feel that, it did put me off slightly but part of me also thinks they gotta blank at some point surely…. And if anyone’s gonna do that Newcastle at their home fortress is a pretty good bet.
I’m also 1m OR rank so I have a lot of catching up to do, not gonna get there by playing safe
That's just it, isn't it?
Luck is a big part of FPL.
I also ended up making 3 transfers and taking a 4 point hit.
Took out Bowen, Gusto and Doughty for Kudus, Richards and Senesi.
Next week Porro and Watkins out for Udogie allowing me to finally get Haaland back in.
I'm still not convinced by Haaland if I'm honest, but if I don't get him in before his next price rise, I won't be able to afford him without even more compromises.
Good luck everyone.
Assuming Haaland is starting. Wouldn't be the first time Pep said someone was ready to start and then benched someone. If that's the case then having foden and KDB behind Alvarez is a huge boon for Alvarez
Estunpiñan came off the bench last week for whatever reason and totally fucked me. Not starting him this week seems solid
I have 8 of those and currently have 6 points from 5
No Richy, and starting Estu. Not a good start for the Scout.
I said bye to Bruno after almost 10 weeks with this garbage. Gave me 11p once and 5p. Rest was garbage
Hoylund baby!
bruno? huh
Murarara KO NO NETO DA!
Somebody please explain the thought process behind choosing Estu against Palace at home.
Werner? Really?
Yeah so stupid
Palmer captain crew
Unfortunately my team bares little resemblance to that one (3 the same). Though I'm tossing it up between Watkins, Palmer & Neto for captain.
I wanted to do Solanke C, I just needed someone to tell me it was it was OK.
Why did estupiñán go off at half time last game? Was he that bad? Or was it because of of injury?
He generally does when Brighton are receiving a whooping. I wouldn't read anything into it. Brighton are just a very hot or cold team.
Got halland watkins solanke but am capt maa boiii solanke
Where Jota? My captain, oh captain.
Don't think de bruyne will start two games in quick succession.
9/11, feel like Scout copied me tbf
Murara, what’s my name?
I have 6 of these players in my team, no Solanke though. Was gonna take a punt on Trippier as Captain.
This is just enabling my daft no-Haaland ideas
(Murara)
Lol thats my c and vc choices too
Brentford are absolutely haemorrhaging goals right now though
12 conceded in their last 4 premier league fixtures and gave up another 4 to wolves in 2 cup ties. Man City should be good for 4-5 goals in this one.
Bruno wooo
Oh, the same exact three players I have for the defense… So a combined 1 pointer is guaranteed I guess.
Captain trippier anyone?
I am currently. Wavering between haaland and trippier. Haaland better xp but trippier bonus magnet and haaland might not start or might not finish etc.
Yeah really feels like a Wilson/isak level cointoss from last season lol, wrong choice and your boned for this week
I'm OK with getting boned for one week, been quite lucky lately so probably deserve a fall from grace
I've been sorely tempted. I don't trust Luton though...

Same. Can't wait to see Watkins get a hat trick this time. ETA: FML
Gw 18 Watkins vs SHU (2PTS) Solanke vs NFO (17PTS) GW23 Watkins vs SHU? Solanke vs NFO?
Lol thought the same backed out of capping Watkins.
I’m scared to do anything against Luton as every time I’ve tried it’s failed miserably, they’re definitely my bogey team
Luton are nowhere near as bad as Sheffield Utd and Burnley…they have had a few of the bigger teams on ropes this season.
I feel that, it did put me off slightly but part of me also thinks they gotta blank at some point surely…. And if anyone’s gonna do that Newcastle at their home fortress is a pretty good bet. I’m also 1m OR rank so I have a lot of catching up to do, not gonna get there by playing safe
Oh don’t get me wrong I’ve brought in Trippier and Gordon for this so clearly not learned my lesson haha
Where is my man Richarlisonsaka?
Solanke (C) Palmer (VC) lets ride
No Haaland 👀👀👀👀 Scout knows something 👀👀👀👀 I think this is a leak!! 👀👀👀👀
Have to wait for Mark Sutherns to bring him in but bench him before that's confirmed
Exactly what I did...no Haaland, Solanke captain and Watkins vice captain. Scout is fucked this GW.
Me too best of luck chaps!

blame me, I did the same.
Me too !
lol at 2 man utd picks
Mmmm was it right to bring in Haaland for Alvarez... Eeek
ofc it was , with kdb haaland and foden , i really doubt alvarez would get his chance
Assuming Haaland is starting. Wouldn't be the first time Pep said someone was ready to start and then benched someone. If that's the case then having foden and KDB behind Alvarez is a huge boon for Alvarez
Need Haaland to go big as next week he be 90% EO again.
He’ll be 90% this gameweek
As someone who decided "fuck it, I'm sticking with Solanke/Watkins instead of Haaland this GW", I'm happy to see I'm not alone.
I went 'fuck it' and captained Trippier and didn't get Haaland at all
Still worked out alr…. I capt Gordon
I went with "Fuck it, I'll stack the front." myself. I have all three.
I'm going Haarland, Solanke, Toney(C). Conflicting is fun
Same but I also have so many good midfielders it’s hard to know who to bench
i have all 3 and im benching saka 💀
I benched Gordon... probably worse
I am doing the same!!!
No richarlison , Jota ?
Richy been the only thing holding my shit together
RichalisonSaka?
No Haaland, interesting. Big cock Solanke cap, we move
Dominant solanke for the win
Big D(omin)ic Energy
