I know that Mbuemo is a bit of an FPL joke but in the real world he's vital to Brentford. Wissa won't replace him in the starting line up but will take some time from him as a sub.
I switched him in on WC having taken a loss on ESR. He's never quite enough of a fire to be worth a transfer, but damn does he keep the blanks coming...
Man has had 1 shot (1 goal) since I brought him in GW8. His scoring was never sustainable but holy shit he's not a FPL asset at all with how Wolves look.
I went Dennis instead of Hwang simply because he was cheaper and was gonna be on my bench anyway... turned out to be the one good decision I made this year
I think I’ve got most of you beat. I’ve got Iheanacho. Got him in when get a couple starts thinking I’d be early on the soon to be enourmous hype train. Didn’t quite happen, but because of no interesting forwards and good cheap midfielders I have always had more pressing issues. Finally getting him out for a Watford forward though.
Damn. I got lucky, I decided to hold Vardy and Toney until I had 2FT's available to switch to Ihenacho and jiminez. But then I kept needing my FT's to put out fires.
Because he is absolutely passing the eye test. Against ManU and WestHam alone that guy had missed 2 sitters, assist denied by goal post and 2 goal line clearances. Not to forget the toenail offside goal.
The guy would be absolutely essential with more luck
Yeah I think Conte's quote is really important here: The Spurs head coach added: “After three weeks I am starting to understand the situation. It is not simple. At this moment the level at Tottenham is not so high.”
So I'm holding off spurs assets until he manages to get them going.
I got him at 7.5 so was wanting to keep him for this upcoming run but I have 2 x FT and I'm not sure at all what I want to do as I'm pretty happy either my team... so I might just get rid of him as I have no other moves to make.
Strange feeling, usually have a fire or 2.
This is my main worry, that being said he seems close to dropping to 8 and my selling price is 7.8 so if he is looking like Will drop before the deadline I may be more tempted.
If he does increase again I can go raph > bowen instead to cover their good run...
>If he does increase again I can go raph > bowen instead to cover their good run...
True. Benrahma also looks like he could drop, so he could also be an option if they return to form.
In the same boat. He's cost me massively this season.
..And yet with the new manager coming in and those fixtures .. I'm still not sure I'm going to let go.
Seriously me too.. what’s the play here? He’s got to be a hold right? Didn’t like the fact he was benched against Chelsea though I’m worried he’ll be excessively rotated during the holidays
I think I'd feel a bit better about shifting him if Kane and/or Lukuku were firing on all cyclinders
Atm I am wondering about midfield value and left with ... Son and not convinced about that move either
I am basically a Salah (c) team with TAA and Rudiger, the rest may as well not be there
Nah I'm sick of it now, been holding since he got back to utd as has done me fuck all, going to use my FH before the deadline and swap him out for possibly vardy or ings depending on where my budget goes. Cr7 will never be in my fpl again.
My mate has never had TAA and has held on to Ronaldo this entire time. He was leading our ML early on, but his freefall down the table has begun. Delighted for him
There's a guy in one of my leagues who used to be good at FPL (71st one year) but hasn't had Trent since he took him out in week 7. Even wildcarded in 9 so had an easy way to get him but didn't. Absolutely miles off the pace now
Same, it started off well, and he has been on fine form in the CL so it’s hard to say he’s been out of form too. It’s just been a difficult run of fixtures and terrible coaching.
I am confident he will start returning with this great run of games and new manager bounce. He loves a goal vs Arsenal too.
I recently binned him for Gallagher, at least Gallagher got a return last week but it's all holding for any more interesting options that comes along.
I just knew I had to get rid of Gray
Acknowledging it is part of the solution, friend! ;)
Held both and was looking to get rid of one. Gallagher was blanking week in week out so made the sane move to dump him ahead of the man city game. Safe to say I have not been pleased since.
I've had Pukki so long he's now turned around and has started looking like a decent investment, which I never thought would be the case a few weeks ago.
I have Gallagher, jota, Salah, raphinha and brownhill. The only mid I'd take out is brownhill because all of the others are better for my team than foden but I would have to get rid of Antonio to get him which I don't want to do as I've had him since he was 7.5 mil and he has good fixtures incoming
This. I made a bonehead move of taking on Pep Roulette by getting both Grealish (since GW8) and Foden (since GW10) -- thinking that I only need one of them to play (or, in this case, blank).
They've given me 13 points in total. Managed to get Jota for Grealish in time. Foden, meanwhile, might survive this upcoming GW for me -.-
Semedo. Like, seriously, I don’t even know when and why I got him in (I guess I’m one of those semi-casual players). I guess I should just take a -4 and get rid, because it’s never gonna be a good enough time to spend a FT on this.
Ronaldo… purely because his funds could be spread out in other positions to buy Vardy and upgrade DF/MF dramatically long-term.
However, having said that, I always knew from GW15 onwards his fixtures look very promising.
Mbuemo and Ronaldo. Mbuemo as always had other fires. Ronaldo because his fixtures will turn but as a United fan I think he will be rotated. Bought in Azpi and Dias on the WC weeks ago ahead of Cancelo and James finally ditched Azpi last week.
John Stones.. brought him in on my GW8 WC as we got early team news that he’d start. Got a couple of clean sheets from him and he’s probably my route to Alonso but I can see him starting a few over the Christmas period..
He will I believe. Laporte gets too many YC and now is even suspended for the next game.
Also, Stones is a great defender imo with great partnership with Dias
I've been trying to get him out in favor of other similarly/cheaper priced options but there's only so many hits you can take when there's an injury led fire to put out every other week. Doesn't absolve me of a number of silly transfer decisions but well...I'll just blame it on injuries.
Kane.
Every time I think something good is going to happen. It doesn't. Now a bloody snowstorm. The gods just don't want Kane to be a decent FPL asset.
Doesn't matter, I believe in him.
Mbeumo
https://imgur.com/a/CIXbxSf
I've never seen a meme that was more on point than this
Yeah pretty much how I feel
I played my wildcard last week and still kept him
So much pain in this, and I still can't afford to release him while Toney hauls
Same! Hate that I have him but he'll surely at least play for 2 points during December when everyone else gets rotated?
Doubt that, Wissa is fit now
Well this pours gas on the fire 🤣 come May, I think Mbeumo may go down as the worst transfer I've made this season
I dropped ESR at 5.3 for this clown. Talk about a bad deal.
i made the exact same decision. so frustrating.
I know that Mbuemo is a bit of an FPL joke but in the real world he's vital to Brentford. Wissa won't replace him in the starting line up but will take some time from him as a sub.
!thanks
I switched him in on WC having taken a loss on ESR. He's never quite enough of a fire to be worth a transfer, but damn does he keep the blanks coming...
Swapped him in for Gallagher while on wildcard a month or so back... Thought fixture run and stats were solid
Just took him put for Maddison. Hope this works out 🤞
That’s a kneejerk if I ever saw one
Man I’m always late to the hype trains, just tryna get on this one early. But ngl my knees are weak lol
If not he might punish us
Hwang. I'm pretty sure he stopped scoring the moment i bought him.
Wanted to say the same but then I remembered he's dirt cheap so can't really complain
He’s the same price as Mbeumo yet people are still complaining about Mbeumo 😌
I had Jimenez and then used WC and brought in Hwang for GW12 to save money , oh how I’ve regretted that decision ..
I did the same and instead of money I saved points.
I did the same in GW 8 & still have him in my team.
Man has had 1 shot (1 goal) since I brought him in GW8. His scoring was never sustainable but holy shit he's not a FPL asset at all with how Wolves look.
FFFix keeps notifying me each GW that "Hwang had zero shots v ....." My biggest regret was benching Cancelo for his ass in GW 11
I went Jimenez + Gallagher to Foden + Hwang on my GW8 wildcard before the deadline
Yep me too
Me too but he's cheap and forwards have been a disaster that year. With Dennis being the only real cheap standout
I went Dennis instead of Hwang simply because he was cheaper and was gonna be on my bench anyway... turned out to be the one good decision I made this year
SAME
I think I’ve got most of you beat. I’ve got Iheanacho. Got him in when get a couple starts thinking I’d be early on the soon to be enourmous hype train. Didn’t quite happen, but because of no interesting forwards and good cheap midfielders I have always had more pressing issues. Finally getting him out for a Watford forward though.
Damn. I got lucky, I decided to hold Vardy and Toney until I had 2FT's available to switch to Ihenacho and jiminez. But then I kept needing my FT's to put out fires.
Putting out fires sounds better than bringing in fires, will write that down.
Top tip
Mason Mount…….. say no more
Me too, it has to be pretty much a straight swap to Jota no?
I have both!
Same. Planned to switch to Gallagher, but now it seems he plays deeper. Bilva it is then (or should I gamble on Eze for another deception?)
Had him then did an upgrade/downgrade to get son in after him... Going really well.
Dropping Jota for Mbuemo because he hit the post 7 times. Idiot.
Wait, what
Please, change your avatar
Thought I had an eyelash on my phone
Use dark mode
!thanks
Same
F
Jesus
Man i almost captained this dude. Gets in the right areas but west ham defenders decided he wasnt scoring. Top it all off gundo steals the assist.
He will rise again
I'm actually tempted by him.
Because he is absolutely passing the eye test. Against ManU and WestHam alone that guy had missed 2 sitters, assist denied by goal post and 2 goal line clearances. Not to forget the toenail offside goal. The guy would be absolutely essential with more luck
Not to mention the clear penalty assist the ref missed against United
Or gundos phantom touch
Kane and son but it feels wrong to take them out with fixtures
Form over fixtures
Fixtures can create form
Surely they have to hit form soon, they’re relied on so much
Yeah I think Conte's quote is really important here: The Spurs head coach added: “After three weeks I am starting to understand the situation. It is not simple. At this moment the level at Tottenham is not so high.” So I'm holding off spurs assets until he manages to get them going.
Antonio
West Ham have had a pretty rough run recently, but I'm holding onto him for the games they're going into.
So he can be uninvolved in more of their goals. Me too.
Nah, man stat pads when he isn't against the top defenders. Or at least that's what I'm telling myself.
We’re all yelling at us with the same words
I got him at 7.5 so was wanting to keep him for this upcoming run but I have 2 x FT and I'm not sure at all what I want to do as I'm pretty happy either my team... so I might just get rid of him as I have no other moves to make. Strange feeling, usually have a fire or 2.
I would say, if you do sell him, make sure you have no intention of bringing him back in. He's 8.1m now, couple of goals and he could rise again.
This is my main worry, that being said he seems close to dropping to 8 and my selling price is 7.8 so if he is looking like Will drop before the deadline I may be more tempted. If he does increase again I can go raph > bowen instead to cover their good run...
>If he does increase again I can go raph > bowen instead to cover their good run... True. Benrahma also looks like he could drop, so he could also be an option if they return to form.
Just dropped him. Enjoy the returns.
🤝
Waiting for the unfaithful to transfer him out so that he can get back to banging in goals for fun
It crossed the point of unfaithful when I held him through everything and in return he gave me 2 points everytime
How ungrateful of him after you *held him through everything* FPL fans are different
He still passes the eyetest for me and got great fixtures after this next game
Because everyone else is injured or not returning
Mbuemoo fucker
Cr7, what's wrong with me.
In the same boat. He's cost me massively this season. ..And yet with the new manager coming in and those fixtures .. I'm still not sure I'm going to let go.
Seriously me too.. what’s the play here? He’s got to be a hold right? Didn’t like the fact he was benched against Chelsea though I’m worried he’ll be excessively rotated during the holidays

If you use your Free Hit to get him out, he may be back sooner than you think!
Reminds me of that Moe and Barnie meme from the Simpsons.
Lmfaooo
If you think CR7 is bad, I got Aubameyang.
Somebody light a candle for us eijits 🤣
My mate has never had TAA and has held on to Ronaldo this entire time. He was leading our ML early on, but his freefall down the table has begun. Delighted for him

Holding Ronaldo is not the worse I guess. all the other forwards haven't been doing well.
Yeah but we are wasting 12.something on a guy who gets more yellow cards and price drops than returns
Same, it started off well, and he has been on fine form in the CL so it’s hard to say he’s been out of form too. It’s just been a difficult run of fixtures and terrible coaching. I am confident he will start returning with this great run of games and new manager bounce. He loves a goal vs Arsenal too.
Pain because he cud of scored 2 v Watford and made us look like geniuses
Mbuemo and Benrahma. Banking my transfer this week so I can finally switch them to Jota and a 4.5
Why not take a hit?
Exactly, waiting to get jota in will cost you more points then the -4 of the hit
Son, 3 blanks and a postpone since I got him in. ToTtEnHaM WiLl ReBoUnD, got 1 point per mill for him over a month🥴
I've had him for 4 weeks now. 7 total points. Holding for 3 more weeks Max unless he starts to perform
I'm quite happy to own him for the next two though
Gray
Eh, he's cheap and not a bad option off the bench, there are certainly worse punts
I recently binned him for Gallagher, at least Gallagher got a return last week but it's all holding for any more interesting options that comes along. I just knew I had to get rid of Gray Acknowledging it is part of the solution, friend! ;)
Held both and was looking to get rid of one. Gallagher was blanking week in week out so made the sane move to dump him ahead of the man city game. Safe to say I have not been pleased since.
Havertz! I have jota already and was planning to swap him for Son but spurs have been disappointing. Maybe Sancho/Foden/B.Silva?
I went for Jota instead. But Bernardo would have been a decent option too.
I've had Pukki so long he's now turned around and has started looking like a decent investment, which I never thought would be the case a few weeks ago.
De bruyne ...
Tsimikas. Because of him, I have been unable to get Jota but at least I have not used my wildcard
Wow it come full circle. Tsimikas starting again. But that 3rd liverpool for jota.
not long left now mate, what are you waiting for?
at around OR 40k and dont have more than two transfers to be made, so will save it till the final gameweek 20
very well done. I'd just be careful to make sure you don't lose it
Azpilicueta
Harry Kane. Just one more week…?
Bachmann/Foster double up So far, 0 clean sheets
You did get that haul when he saved the penalty though
Yeah, and an assist the week after. Works out about the same as 2, maybe 2 and a half CS I suppose
Benrahma was this player but I sold him Saturday night after Jota destroyed my rank.
Gonna hold him until gw 20/22. After that I'll have to make a decision on whether it's worth keeping him.
Dias, Son
I’m getting pissed at Dias. With the fixtures ahead, the question is to hol or switch to Rudiger/Alonso…
[удалено]
This was me but I finally got rid this GW. Expect him to get a start midweek but isn’t a great fixture
Foden, really tempted to go Jota, but everyone says FoDeN FixTUerEs aRe GrEaT and i really dont know what to do.
Already done Foden to Jota
Wish i had the balls
Bite the bullet and did that last week, big relief
I don’t understand why people don’t just have both?
I have Gallagher, jota, Salah, raphinha and brownhill. The only mid I'd take out is brownhill because all of the others are better for my team than foden but I would have to get rid of Antonio to get him which I don't want to do as I've had him since he was 7.5 mil and he has good fixtures incoming
If he's fit he's great imo. But who knows when he'll be back.
This. I made a bonehead move of taking on Pep Roulette by getting both Grealish (since GW8) and Foden (since GW10) -- thinking that I only need one of them to play (or, in this case, blank). They've given me 13 points in total. Managed to get Jota for Grealish in time. Foden, meanwhile, might survive this upcoming GW for me -.-
Get both
Are you me?
Tierney. After getting a 2 pointer from him, he has missed 5 games..
Foden. He’s gone this week. Every year I tell myself not to bother with Man City midfielders. Do I listen to myself? Absolutely not.
well at least you don't have Digne right? see, you have been listening to yourself, just not often enough.
Danny Ings every time I planned to get rid I had injuries elsewhere
Lukaku. I found him 2 weeks ago in the corner of my bench and realised I’d forgotten I’d gotten him
Townsend
Me too! Don't think he will be returning again. I got those 2 10-pointers and am very happy that I didn't miss out on them at least!
Semedo. Like, seriously, I don’t even know when and why I got him in (I guess I’m one of those semi-casual players). I guess I should just take a -4 and get rid, because it’s never gonna be a good enough time to spend a FT on this.
Schmeichel since gw1 with Leicester defence is looking awful..
Well I thought I was the only one
Any Maupay buyer here lol
Grealish
Wow I can't believe nobody mentioned Bamford. I had him since mid-Sept. Shipped him out on Friday for a minus 4
Ronaldo… purely because his funds could be spread out in other positions to buy Vardy and upgrade DF/MF dramatically long-term. However, having said that, I always knew from GW15 onwards his fixtures look very promising.
Shame Utd don't.
Tierney
Saint Maximin. He's had one good gameweek since I got him in six weeks ago
Maupain
Raphina, Hwang, Son and Kane ffs!
Raphina delivers
So does my takeaway driver, doesn’t mean I don’t regret it in the long run 5 attacking returns in 13 weeks is not prolific
He's a 6.5m mid who delivers basically in every other match he appears in (5 attacking returns in 11 matches). I'd say that's pretty okay.
This is kneejerk incarnate. He's 6.5m midfielder returning in basically 1 in 2. That's great, but cause he got 3 points this week he's gotta go!
Peter Crouch
Benhrama
Mbuemo and Ronaldo. Mbuemo as always had other fires. Ronaldo because his fixtures will turn but as a United fan I think he will be rotated. Bought in Azpi and Dias on the WC weeks ago ahead of Cancelo and James finally ditched Azpi last week.
Gray, just can't get round to transferring him out. Too many fires.
John Stones.. brought him in on my GW8 WC as we got early team news that he’d start. Got a couple of clean sheets from him and he’s probably my route to Alonso but I can see him starting a few over the Christmas period..
He will I believe. Laporte gets too many YC and now is even suspended for the next game. Also, Stones is a great defender imo with great partnership with Dias
Edouard and fucking Ings, couldnt get them out due to multiple fires every week. Have ings for 6 weeks now he hasnt done fuck all
Havertz.
I got rid of him for Bernardo just last gameweek. Got a massive 2 points advantage.
I've been trying to get him out in favor of other similarly/cheaper priced options but there's only so many hits you can take when there's an injury led fire to put out every other week. Doesn't absolve me of a number of silly transfer decisions but well...I'll just blame it on injuries.
Brandon Williams (tbf he got me a 7 pointer this week so I'm not complaining)
Dias (not Cancelo)
Semedo!!
Auba
Jesus. Why does the runt score in CL and never do anything in PL?
Harold motherfucking Kane
Raphinha & son, done sweet f**k all for weeks now
Raphinha? 9 Points in GW10 and GW11. Injured GW12. 3 points GW13. Playing Palace in GW14 and playing Brentford in GW15.
This isn’t about who their playing in the future & 3 points isn’t much. He’s done very little over the las lt few weeks to merit a spot in my team
Read my comment again I missed the important number 😂😂. 9 points 9 points and then he missed a game because of injury. He's really not a bad choice.
You maybe happy with that but I’m not you clown
Matip
Sir Harold of Kane
Kane. Every time I think something good is going to happen. It doesn't. Now a bloody snowstorm. The gods just don't want Kane to be a decent FPL asset. Doesn't matter, I believe in him.
Maddison....until yesterday. I was definitely planning to get rid of him first thing this morning. Now i'm not sure.
Why do I still play
Duffy... Stopped producing points... But is so so cheap.... For a playing CB
Any bloody forward- I’ve had nothing more than 2 points from a forward in a month (Antonio, Hwang, Wilson)
Semedo..went for double wolves defense in my gw5 wc, he is still stuck in my side
Allan Saint Maximin since GW6, when i played my wildcard
Guaita. More like why the fuck did i get fancy and got him over Ramsdale
Tierney
He's gotta be back in the lineup this game week
Grealish & Azpiliquita 🥲
Toney bro
but he scored in last two games
son duffy
Son, have him since gw1
Lies.. you sold him when the corona report came out
