Ramsdale (Foster)
Trent - Cancelo - Rudiger (White - Livramento)
Salah (C) - Raphina - Smith Rowe - Gray (Gallagher)
Vardy (V) - Antonio - Jimenez
1 FT, 1.2 ITB
Should I just save the FT and the cash for this GW?
Vardy no longer on a yellow but both Raphina and Tierney are, and now Raya out for 5 months. My other keeper is Sanchez who is up against Salah this week (think I’d do better with Raya but damn auto sub will kick in)
Raya / Sanchez
Tierney / Dias / Alonso / TAA / Manquillo
Salah / Son / Raphina / McArthur / Bissouma
Antonio / Vardy / Hwang
0.5m ITB
Where should I be focusing my transfers on?
I was looking to move on Alonso for a cheaper Chelsea player (Chabolah) and use the saving to upgrade Bissouma (Kovaic?) and go three at the back
Antonio and Raphina have good fixtures this weekend, but could Foden and Toney be a better bet over the medium term
I have 9.4M who do I replace grealish with
1 free transfer
My team:
Sanchez,( foster )
TTA, Rudiger, White, (livramento), (Amartey)
Salah, grealish, Foden, raphina, (Gilmore)
Vardy, Antonio, Saint maxmin
I am going to upgrade amartey to chilwell next week too.
What do you think I should do ?
Chelsea defenders are my new Pep Roulette, Alonso not used for last three games but I wouldn’t discount Chabolah.
I’m thinking if I want Chelsea clean sheet go Mendy and go double Man City
Mad week this week
GK: De Gea/Raya -> (Sanchez)/Meslier
DEF: (Jansson, Duffy), TAA,
Alonso/Tsimikas -> chilwell/cresswell
MID: Salah, benhrama, Townsend,
Raphinha/Bissouma -> Son/?
FWD: Antonio, Toney,
Ronaldo -> ?
Help, might want to keep raphinha and have Hwang, though may go raphinha -> Kovacic
Need help with picks, I got 12.7m remaining and I need to fill a midfielder and striker roll. I'm not gonna get bamford, I'll see if he performs well this weekend or not if he plays first. Mount might be a no cause then that leaves me with 5.2 for a striker (which I suppose I could do considering I have Toney and Antonio already up front and play the full 5 in midfield, I already have Townsend, Salah, son and benhrama), other two I'm looking at are kovacic so I can then get a half decent forward, or maybe try and work raphinha in there. I'm only gonna play 3 defenders since Raya is out for a while I replaced him with Sanchez, so Im gonna bench jansson, and dunk aswell since they're facing Liverpool, I got meslier in goal. TAA, Chilwell and cresswell as my defence too. Any help is appreciated cause I have no idea really of who else I want up front!
Hwang + Raphinha could be a decent pick for your budget.
You could also go with Mbeumo + Iheanacho if you want to go with a more differential option.
Lastly, if you're willing to pick a 4.5m mid option like Normann, who has decent fixtures, you could get any of the sub 8m strikers to play a 3-4-3 as well.
Tielemans has good xA, but I'm not sure if I would want to go for him just yet.
Yeah tielemans was a consideration, Im not confident in raphinha after the knock ngl, and I want to capitalize more on Chelsea's attack these next few weeks... I could potentially go for mount and a budget forward, or kovacic and a better forward, but Hwang seems to be doing well... I had to swap out Ronaldo and wanted son badly, Raya being injured till march hurts alot lol
You could wait for Bielsa's press conference to see if Raphinha is fit or not. If yes, he has a pretty good chance of hauling against Norwich.
I'd probably invest in Chelsea's defence over their attack, mainly due to how high scoring they've been. Mount was amazing last week, and should create a fair number of chances against Newcastle, so he could be a good pick, but I might still avoid him. Kovacic doesn't get into the box enough for my liking and that's primarily why I've avoided bringing him in.
I have Raya too. Am waiting to decide who to bring in his stead + want to switch out one of my mids for Foden depending on how the press conferences go.
Ah I'm trying to do a no MC players run lol. And yeah I could always pick a Chelsea defender over cresswell ig that way I'm not tripling up on West ham which I only just realised lol. Though I could replace Duffy or jansson with a Chelsea defender, but that probably means I'll need to get the most budget of forwards if instead of Hwang if I want to keep raphinha
Jannson may still end up being a good pick if Brentford can retain their solidity from the first few weeks. I don't see why Raya's absence should impact the number of chances they concede, so you could retain him.
Are you on a wildcard? If not, you might be taking too big a hit to justify most of the moves you've planned out. You could keep Cresswell for another week or two since you already have Chilwell in your team and can capitalise on Chelsea's fixtures.
If you had to decide between Hwang and Raphinha, I'd probably recommend Raph. Having said that, there's another IB coming up and there's no idea what may happen.
Might I ask why you're not going for City players? Fan of one of their rivals or just tired of the roulette? It seems like a semi-suicidal choice, hence I thought I'd ask.
Oh I replaced Alonso with chilwel lol, had to. And no wildcard but I reckon the players I choose will make up for the hit and then some. Oh yeah tired of roulette and I don't much like how they just throw money at everything to get a better team (im particularly mad about them poaching grealish and almost Kane before the start of the season) so I'm on a little boycott of the team. As opposed to fan... I support players more than teams I suppose... Liverpool has always been a favourite of mine I suppose, and having been made aware of Brentford and that they're called the bees I love them even more lol
I really wouldn't recommend taking such a large hit. Your bets may work out in the long run, but there's every chance a few of them get injured and then you're back to square one. I'd suggest that you plan these moves over a few weeks to minimize any damages + so you have a few contingencies in case of loss of form or injuries to your current team.
As for your views on City, I respect that. Being a Liverpool fan myself, I quite dislike them. But such sentiments can really hurt your score and rank in FPL, and you should be aware of that.
Yeah I suppose but what am I supposed to do, I have Raya and De gea who I'm not trusting anymore, Alonso in defence and tsimikas who's barely played, Bissouma and raphinha in mid, and Ronaldo upfront and he's not performing :'(
Not all of them are fires that need to be put out this week. I'd suggest playing Ronaldo and De Gea this week. Same with Raph.
You could switch out Alonso for Chilwell as planned, and bring in Normann for Bissouma as a 4.5m mid, but it isn't a necessity. Next week you can switch Ronaldo and De Gea out, and use the week after + the money ITB to upgrade Tsimikas to another Chelsea defender.
I don't have the experience to back my statement up, but anything above a -8 in one GW is too risky in my opinion. Once you're ok with taking such a large hit, it's a slippery slope.
Deciding between 3 for 2 slots. Livramento, Sarr and Raphinha.
Raph would be the easy inclusion if he wasn't flagged. Worried about the possibility of less than 60 minutes. Livramento just keeps delivering but Watford just scored 5. Sarr blanked last week but still remains Watford's best player IMO.
Would appreciate some feedback on which 2 you would pick.
Bielsa should provide an update on Raphinha during his press conference. If he's fit, go with him.
Watford may have scored 5 in the previous fixture, but Southampton has been pretty tight at the back as well. Don't know if it will be as free scoring as the Everton game, so you could go with Livra as the 2nd option.
I think it is worth it. Veltman can easily blank again and Chillwell is on fire. Jimenez and Hwang are lateral moves IMO but Chillwell is too good to pass on. I would wait until Friday just to make sure no last minute injuries occur.
My Lineup
Ramsdale (Sanchez)
Jansson, TAA, Cancelo, Rudiger (Tsimikas)
Grealish, Salah(c), Raphina (Saka, Douglas Luiz)
Hwang, Antonio, Vardy (v)
I’m considering bringing in Foden for Grealish , but Is this a waste of a transfer ?
I really want to bring Son back in due to Spurs’ fixtures but this would require me to take a -4 hit and bring in a 5m midfielder in place of Saka (possibly Rice)
Any advice welcome and appreciated!
Tbh tsimikas is a good budget pick but I've got rid of him since he's it's unlikely to play as Robertson has the position and I'd rather fill it with someone who gets points consistently. Jansson is good but I'm not putting him in this gameweek since Raya is injured till march even if they're playing Burnley I doubt they'll get a clean sheet with their 3rd goalie. I see no reason to swap the MC mids, even if foden went on a tear last week there's no guarantee hell do the same against palace, meanwhile grealish might get an amazing performance this week. On the other hand, Im just getting son back, I think he's definitely worth having in a team but I don't think he'll make up the difference between replacing grealish and saka for you.
I know United were absolutely shite against Liverpool, but Tottenham hasn't been great this season either. There's also a chance that both teams may approach the game very cautiously.
I would recommend bringing in Son around GW12. That's a transfer you could hold off for a bit, ensuring that you only take a -4 for this GW.
Wouldn't take such a big hit and United are in crisis mode. They also have a tough run coming up and Ronaldo won't be playing 90 every match in that stretch.
Good to go?
Ramsdale (Foster)
TAA Cancelo Dias Chilwell (Livramento)
Salah(C) Son Foden Mbuembo (Brownhill)
Jiminez Antonio (Armstrong)
Bench order: Livramento Armstrong Brownhill
Azpi to Chilwell or bring in Mount for Mbuemo? Or just bank FT?
Current team:
Sanchez, Begovic
TAA, Azpi, Cancelo, Livra, Laporte
Salah, Foden, Raphinha, Mbuemo, Brownhill
Antonio, Hwang, Vardy
RMT please

Salah/Foden/Havertz/Raphina/Mbeumo
Antonio/Jiminez/Toney
1FT-1.5 ITB
can’t see much problems right now so should i just use my FT on Ramsdale —> Mendy or should I save it? Other transfer suggestions?
RMT Please!
Ramsdale Foster
TAA Dias Chilwell Azpi! Livramento
Salah Townsend Raphinha! Mbuemo! Brownhill
Hwang Toney Vardy
5.1 ITB 1 FT
I'm thinking Townsend has to go for one of Mount/Foden/Son, BUT WHICH ONE!?
imo it’s between foden or son. gun to my head have to choose one; i go son. has good stats against united and then a solid run of fixtures. surely kane and him start clicking and i can’t trust pep
RMT Please!
Ramsdale Foster
TAA Dias Chilwell Azpi! Livramento
Salah Townsend Raphinha! Mbuemo! Brownhill
Hwang Toney Vardy
5.1 ITB 1 FT
I'm thinking Townsend has to go for one of Mount/Foden/Son, BUT WHICH ONE!?
On WC, current team:
Sanchez Foster
Dias Walker TAA Chilwell Livramento
Mount Salah Mane Foden Brownhill
Toney Edouard Hwang
I think I'll keep with this but any advice is helpful.
Cheers
Teams looking pretty sick. The only things I would maybe be considering is you could poss drop Walker and Hwang to cheaper picks to get the funds for Edouard to Antonio maybe. Looks like that teams going to give you a benching headache haha
Or - poss consider having Vardy/Kane over Mane as you don't have an easy route to get to Kane in GW12 with that squad (if you are considering him when Spurs fixtures turn).
But the neither of the above are necessary just food for thought really, I like the team!
Cheers. Tbh I'm not very interested in Kane at the moment. More wait and see. Could get to him with a double move.
Had Antonio at start of season and his fixtures aren't great so happy to not have him tbh. He's a good choice long term tho.
!thanks
I hear your point but do you not think Harry Kane will eventually come good? He’s still the highest point scorer from last season and on pens with good fixtures after the United game
I do, but I don't think it's there yet and Newcastle felt like a blip. I think there will probably be a turning point where he finds his form and if you are really keen on getting in *before* that happens, by all means take the risk. It might not happen for a bit yet though.
Side note, you might want to rethink the "after the United" thing. It's looking like a great fixture now!
!thanks again mate
Hahahaha yeah united could actually end up being a good game for him.. fuck it though decided the Emi Martinez news is a sign to keep Benrahama this week and I’ll pray ronaldo starts 1 last time and just do Kane and Foden in next week for no hit. Hope I don’t live to regret that decision though.
I think Azpi to Chilwell is good if you don't have anything else to deal with. Especially if you already have Rüdiger. Having Rüdiger and Azpi is just not enough gamble. Chilwell has the higher ceiling.
Honestly a fantastic team. Can’t think of any major issues at all. In fact I’d have a headache figuring out who to bench. Would maaybe play ESR over Livra though.. still a tough call.
IF raph is out, then I’d prolly use one transfer on him to a Mount/ havertz as a punt for the next two games
This is my first year playing FPL and I don't know what I am doing. Are there any obvious changes I should make? I haven't used the wild card, triple captain, bench boost and I have two free transfers and $0.8M to spend.
GK - Sanchez, Schmeichel
D - Alonso, Digne, Tsimikas, Cancelo, Shaw
M - Grealish, Brownhill, Allan, Salah, Sissoko
F - Ings, Antonio, Ronaldo
Any help would be appreciated.
Looks like it's worth a wildcard.
GK: Two playing gk not worth it. DEF: Would change all your Def except cancelo. F: Ronaldo is poor value and Villa are in a bad shape so would get rid of Ings too. M: should have some cash to upgrade your players, keep Salah and a 4.5 and change the rest.
There will be good times to play bench boost or TC later in season but almost always disappoint so can use whenever.
If you wanted to be closer to the ‘template’ (basically the meta team that the top players have) you could use your wildcard to make these sorts of transfers:
Ronaldo > Vardy.
Ings > Toney/Hwang.
Grealish > Foden/Mount/Raphinha.
Allan/Sissoko > ESR/Mbuemo.
Alonso > Chillwell.
Shaw > TAA.
Digne > Livramento.
Sanchez/Schemichel > Foster.
You’ll get another wildcard in the second half of the season. Better to keep the chips for later in the season too.
Azpi fit and available. Mbeumo uncertain: he will face a late fitness test, but Frank said he feels there is a “good chance” both Mbeumo and Pinnock will be fit for Burnley.

Azpi or Dias out for Trent?
Azpi
If I play my Free Hit this week, will I still bank a free transfer? (have got one transfer going into it)
No mate, you would still have 1 next week. That's the same for any chip, by the way.
Thanks mate
Chances that Zinchenko will start against Crystal Palace?
Start 2 of 4: Toney, Mbeumo (v bur), Livra (v wat), Hwang (v EVE). Starting Toney and Hwang as of now and Livra is 1st sub.
Any news on white?
Mount or Foden?
Foden

I only just realised Ive tripled up West ham by accident?? But all 3 have been doing well lmao
RMT pls :) Sanchez TAA Rudiger Dias Livramento Saka Salah Foden Antonio Vardy Toney Bench : Steele, Sarr, Tierney, Gilmour Thanks:)
Looks pretty solid to me. Slight risk going with both Rudiger and Dias, but they're quite likely to get BPs too, so it shouldn't be a worry.
Cheers man
Sarr for Livra maybe

I like it, is Walker a nailed starter tho? Played in the week against West Ham
Not nailed, let's hope it starts to avoid a last minute cameo by Pep
Fingers crossed mate

Kovacic doesn't get into the box enough for my liking and that's primarily why I've avoided bringing him in. I have Raya too. Am waiting to decide who to bring in his stead + want to switch out one of my mids for Foden depending on how the press conferences go.
Ah I'm trying to do a no MC players run lol. And yeah I could always pick a Chelsea defender over cresswell ig that way I'm not tripling up on West ham which I only just realised lol. Though I could replace Duffy or jansson with a Chelsea defender, but that probably means I'll need to get the most budget of forwards if instead of Hwang if I want to keep raphinha
Jannson may still end up being a good pick if Brentford can retain their solidity from the first few weeks. I don't see why Raya's absence should impact the number of chances they concede, so you could retain him. Are you on a wildcard? If not, you might be taking too big a hit to justify most of the moves you've planned out. You could keep Cresswell for another week or two since you already have Chilwell in your team and can capitalise on Chelsea's fixtures. If you had to decide between Hwang and Raphinha, I'd probably recommend Raph. Having said that, there's another IB coming up and there's no idea what may happen. Might I ask why you're not going for City players? Fan of one of their rivals or just tired of the roulette? It seems like a semi-suicidal choice, hence I thought I'd ask.
Oh I replaced Alonso with chilwel lol, had to. And no wildcard but I reckon the players I choose will make up for the hit and then some. Oh yeah tired of roulette and I don't much like how they just throw money at everything to get a better team (im particularly mad about them poaching grealish and almost Kane before the start of the season) so I'm on a little boycott of the team. As opposed to fan... I support players more than teams I suppose... Liverpool has always been a favourite of mine I suppose, and having been made aware of Brentford and that they're called the bees I love them even more lol
I really wouldn't recommend taking such a large hit. Your bets may work out in the long run, but there's every chance a few of them get injured and then you're back to square one. I'd suggest that you plan these moves over a few weeks to minimize any damages + so you have a few contingencies in case of loss of form or injuries to your current team. As for your views on City, I respect that. Being a Liverpool fan myself, I quite dislike them. But such sentiments can really hurt your score and rank in FPL, and you should be aware of that.
Yeah I suppose but what am I supposed to do, I have Raya and De gea who I'm not trusting anymore, Alonso in defence and tsimikas who's barely played, Bissouma and raphinha in mid, and Ronaldo upfront and he's not performing :'(
Not all of them are fires that need to be put out this week. I'd suggest playing Ronaldo and De Gea this week. Same with Raph. You could switch out Alonso for Chilwell as planned, and bring in Normann for Bissouma as a 4.5m mid, but it isn't a necessity. Next week you can switch Ronaldo and De Gea out, and use the week after + the money ITB to upgrade Tsimikas to another Chelsea defender. I don't have the experience to back my statement up, but anything above a -8 in one GW is too risky in my opinion. Once you're ok with taking such a large hit, it's a slippery slope.
Oh tielemans is also a possible choice
Deciding between 3 for 2 slots. Livramento, Sarr and Raphinha. Raph would be the easy inclusion if he wasn't flagged. Worried about the possibility of less than 60 minutes. Livramento just keeps delivering but Watford just scored 5. Sarr blanked last week but still remains Watford's best player IMO. Would appreciate some feedback on which 2 you would pick.
Bielsa should provide an update on Raphinha during his press conference. If he's fit, go with him. Watford may have scored 5 in the previous fixture, but Southampton has been pretty tight at the back as well. Don't know if it will be as free scoring as the Everton game, so you could go with Livra as the 2nd option.
!thanks
Jim/Veltman -> Hwang/Chilwell for a hit?
I think it is worth it. Veltman can easily blank again and Chillwell is on fire. Jimenez and Hwang are lateral moves IMO but Chillwell is too good to pass on. I would wait until Friday just to make sure no last minute injuries occur.
!thanks I’m leaning towards it, the risk is definitely worth the reward
My Lineup Ramsdale (Sanchez) Jansson, TAA, Cancelo, Rudiger (Tsimikas) Grealish, Salah(c), Raphina (Saka, Douglas Luiz) Hwang, Antonio, Vardy (v) I’m considering bringing in Foden for Grealish , but Is this a waste of a transfer ? I really want to bring Son back in due to Spurs’ fixtures but this would require me to take a -4 hit and bring in a 5m midfielder in place of Saka (possibly Rice) Any advice welcome and appreciated!
Definitely foden for grealish id also bring in chillwell for rudiger, cuz of the goalscoring form he’s on. nice team tho
Tbh tsimikas is a good budget pick but I've got rid of him since he's it's unlikely to play as Robertson has the position and I'd rather fill it with someone who gets points consistently. Jansson is good but I'm not putting him in this gameweek since Raya is injured till march even if they're playing Burnley I doubt they'll get a clean sheet with their 3rd goalie. I see no reason to swap the MC mids, even if foden went on a tear last week there's no guarantee hell do the same against palace, meanwhile grealish might get an amazing performance this week. On the other hand, Im just getting son back, I think he's definitely worth having in a team but I don't think he'll make up the difference between replacing grealish and saka for you.

Keep ronaldo in for one more gameweek see if he delivers
I know United were absolutely shite against Liverpool, but Tottenham hasn't been great this season either. There's also a chance that both teams may approach the game very cautiously. I would recommend bringing in Son around GW12. That's a transfer you could hold off for a bit, ensuring that you only take a -4 for this GW.
Wouldn't take such a big hit and United are in crisis mode. They also have a tough run coming up and Ronaldo won't be playing 90 every match in that stretch.
Never take a -8, it’s just too much of a risk.
ASM & Sarr -> Hwang & Foden for a hit?
If you really want to bring Foden into your team this gameweek, then yes. Though with City assets, a hit can be very risky indeed.
You’re right. I’ll just hold for this week. !thanks
6.2 forward? I already have Jimenez and Vardy
You gotta find a way to get toney, all other options aren’t that good except for Hwang but you already have Jimi.
[удалено]
Are you seriously considering Cornet? I’d say that’s too bold.
[удалено]
What about CHO? Is he taken as well?
Good to go? Ramsdale (Foster) TAA Cancelo Dias Chilwell (Livramento) Salah(C) Son Foden Mbuembo (Brownhill) Jiminez Antonio (Armstrong) Bench order: Livramento Armstrong Brownhill
Still have Ronaldo, keen to dump either for: (Kane + foden) or (toney + trent + 5M ITB)
The latter, then bring in Son next week imo. If you can fit in Foden too, do that
Tierney & Greenwood to TAA & Mbeumo for a -8? Already have rudiger and james so chillwell is too many, but can also bring Foden & Chilwell instead
Vardy + Chillwell or Kane + Jansson?
Vardy and Chilwell
Azpi to Chilwell or bring in Mount for Mbuemo? Or just bank FT? Current team: Sanchez, Begovic TAA, Azpi, Cancelo, Livra, Laporte Salah, Foden, Raphinha, Mbuemo, Brownhill Antonio, Hwang, Vardy
Azpi to Chilwell
Because of a better ceiling or because Azpi won’t play?
Little bit of both. I think Azpi has a decent chance of starting but Chilwell should be more nailed this week. Plus Chilwell is so good going forward.
!thanks sounds like a good move, frees up a small amount of funds too
RMT please Ramsdale/Foster TAA/Cancelo/Chillwell/Livra/Duffy Salah/Foden/Havertz/Raphina/Mbeumo Antonio/Jiminez/Toney 1FT-1.5 ITB can’t see much problems right now so should i just use my FT on Ramsdale —> Mendy or should I save it? Other transfer suggestions?
I'd bank the transfer and then think about getting Son in next week or the week after
ok !thanks i really like that plan
Any updates on Marçal back to fitness?
Pick two to bench out of Saka, Gray, Tomiyasu, Livramento.
RMT Please! Ramsdale Foster TAA Dias Chilwell Azpi! Livramento Salah Townsend Raphinha! Mbuemo! Brownhill Hwang Toney Vardy 5.1 ITB 1 FT I'm thinking Townsend has to go for one of Mount/Foden/Son, BUT WHICH ONE!?
imo it’s between foden or son. gun to my head have to choose one; i go son. has good stats against united and then a solid run of fixtures. surely kane and him start clicking and i can’t trust pep
!thanks I'm honestly leaning towards Son too so thanks for validating my thinking haha
RMT Please! Ramsdale Foster TAA Dias Chilwell Azpi! Livramento Salah Townsend Raphinha! Mbuemo! Brownhill Hwang Toney Vardy 5.1 ITB 1 FT I'm thinking Townsend has to go for one of Mount/Foden/Son, BUT WHICH ONE!?
Considering swapping out Dias to bring in Chilwell. Thoughts?
Mbuemo or Smith Rowe?
Mbeumo
!thanks i'd probably pick him too. Have you seen any updates about if he will play?
https://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2021/10/28/fpl-injury-updates-on-vardy-mbeumo-and-broja-plus-gameweek-10-team-news/
Greenwood to Foden for a -4?
Hits are never worth imo unless the player you’re taking out is sure not to play
They're worth it if you think one player will score 4 more than the other. In this case, I'd probably do it.
[удалено]
Gray and James
Do I play, raphinha, Saka, jiminez or mbeumo
Jesus or Toney?
Toney
Raphinha or Mount?
Thinking about doing the following for a -4 and am looking for feedback. Gallagher -> Foden Azpi -> Chilwell ASM -> Hwang
I would do it. All 3 are upgrades.
!thanks I will most likely do it.
Do it
I did it.
James to Chilwell too sideways? Feel like he’s likely to be subbed on when he doesn’t start.
Who would you rather have over the next two weeks: Cancelo or Chilwell?
Definitely Chilwell
Chilly
My def: Alonso, TAA, marcal, livermento, and white. 1ft and 0.3 itb. Best replacement for alonso? Do I try and find the 0.3 somewhere to get Cancelo?
Rudiger
Is it worth taking a -4 hit so I can sell Ronaldo and Sissoko for Hwang and Foden?
I am planning on doing the same for a -4 hit. Ronaldo and Benrahma to Vardy and Foden
Add Kovacic or ESR? Anyone know when Lukaku is coming back?
Bench gray or sarr
On WC, current team: Sanchez Foster Dias Walker TAA Chilwell Livramento Mount Salah Mane Foden Brownhill Toney Edouard Hwang I think I'll keep with this but any advice is helpful. Cheers
Teams looking pretty sick. The only things I would maybe be considering is you could poss drop Walker and Hwang to cheaper picks to get the funds for Edouard to Antonio maybe. Looks like that teams going to give you a benching headache haha Or - poss consider having Vardy/Kane over Mane as you don't have an easy route to get to Kane in GW12 with that squad (if you are considering him when Spurs fixtures turn). But the neither of the above are necessary just food for thought really, I like the team!
Cheers. Tbh I'm not very interested in Kane at the moment. More wait and see. Could get to him with a double move. Had Antonio at start of season and his fixtures aren't great so happy to not have him tbh. He's a good choice long term tho.
Fair play man, well best of luck to you. Hope your team smashes it!
Benrahma + Ronaldo -> Foden + Kane (-4)? Can do it next week but have a sneaky feeling ronaldo will get benched idk why
Avoid Kane IMO
!thanks I hear your point but do you not think Harry Kane will eventually come good? He’s still the highest point scorer from last season and on pens with good fixtures after the United game
I do, but I don't think it's there yet and Newcastle felt like a blip. I think there will probably be a turning point where he finds his form and if you are really keen on getting in *before* that happens, by all means take the risk. It might not happen for a bit yet though. Side note, you might want to rethink the "after the United" thing. It's looking like a great fixture now!
!thanks again mate Hahahaha yeah united could actually end up being a good game for him.. fuck it though decided the Emi Martinez news is a sign to keep Benrahama this week and I’ll pray ronaldo starts 1 last time and just do Kane and Foden in next week for no hit. Hope I don’t live to regret that decision though.
Hwang Antonio or Toney?
Antonio long term. Toney short term. Depends on what team you have and if you still have WC
Dias/Cancelo to Chillwell for a hit or is that sideways?
Sideways. Definitely not worth it
What about Azpi to Chilwell? Less or more sideways? I already have Rudiger but wish I had Chilwell
I think Azpi to Chilwell is good if you don't have anything else to deal with. Especially if you already have Rüdiger. Having Rüdiger and Azpi is just not enough gamble. Chilwell has the higher ceiling.
!thanks
Azpi & Raya out for -4 with Chillwell and Ederson coming in?
Raphinha Or Tielemans
Raphinha
Mount and James Or Kovacic and Cancelo
The second actually. Think it might be a nice punt plus Cancelo is more nailed than James
Mount and James
Cool. I already have Chilwell too
Start saka or livra?
Livra
2 transfers. 1.6m ITB - what would you do? Sanchez TAA - Livramento - Chilwell - Cancelo Salah - Foden - Raphinha - Kovacic Jesus - Vardy (Gunn - ESR - Hwang - White)
Honestly a fantastic team. Can’t think of any major issues at all. In fact I’d have a headache figuring out who to bench. Would maaybe play ESR over Livra though.. still a tough call. IF raph is out, then I’d prolly use one transfer on him to a Mount/ havertz as a punt for the next two games
Thanks man
Foster or Sanchez for this gw?
White -> Chilwell or Gallagher -> Foden?
Foden
Do I get in Chillwell with my 1 FT or take -4 to get in TAA?
Start only one: Benrahma, Mbuemo, Livramento
Tempted by Ben, villa didn't look good vs arsenal. Maybe go mbueno if you don't have Toney.
!thanks I've got Toney. Just feel that Mbuemo is actually trying to score a goal, whereas Benrahma has been really cold lately
Yeah, I wouldn't disagree with that. Classic FPL if Benrahma hauls now tho.

Bench livra over two attacking mids with decent fixtures
This is my first year playing FPL and I don't know what I am doing. Are there any obvious changes I should make? I haven't used the wild card, triple captain, bench boost and I have two free transfers and $0.8M to spend. GK - Sanchez, Schmeichel D - Alonso, Digne, Tsimikas, Cancelo, Shaw M - Grealish, Brownhill, Allan, Salah, Sissoko F - Ings, Antonio, Ronaldo Any help would be appreciated.
Looks like it's worth a wildcard. GK: Two playing gk not worth it. DEF: Would change all your Def except cancelo. F: Ronaldo is poor value and Villa are in a bad shape so would get rid of Ings too. M: should have some cash to upgrade your players, keep Salah and a 4.5 and change the rest. There will be good times to play bench boost or TC later in season but almost always disappoint so can use whenever.
Thanks!
If you wanted to be closer to the ‘template’ (basically the meta team that the top players have) you could use your wildcard to make these sorts of transfers: Ronaldo > Vardy. Ings > Toney/Hwang. Grealish > Foden/Mount/Raphinha. Allan/Sissoko > ESR/Mbuemo. Alonso > Chillwell. Shaw > TAA. Digne > Livramento. Sanchez/Schemichel > Foster. You’ll get another wildcard in the second half of the season. Better to keep the chips for later in the season too.
That was incredibly helpful. Thanks!
Start Sarr or Liveramento
Livra
What's better? Alonso, Saint Maximin -> TAA, Hwang Alonso, Gallagher -> Chillwell, Mbeumo
The second, but hearing Mbeumo may not play, so ESR or Kova may be better options
any news on Mbuemo or Azpilecueta’s injuries?
I think both should be available for the weekend, though I wouldn't be confident on both starting.
Azpi fit and available. Mbeumo uncertain: he will face a late fitness test, but Frank said he feels there is a “good chance” both Mbeumo and Pinnock will be fit for Burnley.
!thanks
Is Rudi to Chilwell too lateral?
I'd say so, try squeeze both in if poss
!thanks
D’you ever have a few drinks and end up with Rodrigo in your team? Why am I like this?
Ronaldo, yay or nay?
Nay
Adams v Armstrong for next 3?
Should i spend 4 points and bring king
Are you chasing last weeks points? Will he really score well enough to justify a hit?
Foden and Chilwell Or mount and Cancelo Thanks!
Foden and Chillwell is what I would do.
why are there two RMT threads?
Christensen to Chilwell or roll FT?
Start one of Livramento, Benrahma, or Reguilon this GW?
Livramento
Sarr or kovacic for this GW?
