[gritty blaze]

New Player , ik not a great time to start , but just need thoughts

[exotic bane]

alr

can u send a pick team pic

and a transfer pic

[gritty blaze]

Where's that

[exotic bane]

click

transfers

[mystic wolf]

Pick team outside this screen

[exotic bane]

the green button

[gritty blaze]

This is pick team i believe

[mystic wolf]

The other green button

This is transfers

[exotic bane]

its alright

[exotic bane]

what transfers did u do this gw?

[mystic wolf]

The first one

[gritty blaze]

I brought in Ben White for Veltmann

Wrong choice but yeah

[exotic bane]

a bit of an invisble rule but we usually wont do transfer mid week

[gritty blaze]

Ah

[exotic bane]

try to do it as close to deadline as possible

cuz you know more info

[mystic wolf]

Yep

[gritty blaze]

There

[gritty blaze]

Or save it until have 2?

[exotic bane]

well

isn’t necessary

but think thoroughly before each transfer

[gritty blaze]

Yep

The fixtures , their previous records and stuff

[exotic bane]

lemme check out your team rq

[mystic wolf]

U could have kept veltman as he has a dgw in 29

[gritty blaze]

Yeah i realised that after i transferred

[mystic wolf]

Well u can wildcard in 28. It will be fine as most people wildcarded in 26 ,27 so u won't be in a disandvantage

[exotic bane]

i would say

wildcard right now

[gritty blaze]

Wildcard who?

And is wildcard only one?

[exotic bane]

wildcard means you can do unlimited transfers

[mystic wolf]

Not a bad idea to wildcard rn

[exotic bane]

and you can keep that team

[mystic wolf]

Yes

[exotic bane]

so basically a reset

[gritty blaze]

Oh

[exotic bane]

wildcard 28 bench boost 29

[gritty blaze]

How about the opposite?

Wildcard 29

Benchboost not yet

[exotic bane]

nah

wildcard 28 is the best

[gritty blaze]

Cause 28 is blank? And i could use more of it in 29

[exotic bane]

you wildcard 28 to setup bench boost in 29

[gritty blaze]

Oh

[exotic bane]

so you target all the players that are doubling in 29

[gritty blaze]

Gotcha

[exotic bane]

but at the same time try to avoid the blanks this gw

[gritty blaze]

So having mainly playing in gw28 , then a few from 29 for dgw?

[exotic bane]

i would say prioritise players that plays in 28 and doubles in 29

[mystic wolf]

I an dm ing my team to you . U can get ideas

[mystic wolf]

Like brentford

[exotic bane]

brentford, chelsea forest, villa, leicester

but you still need to include some essentials like brighton , united and castle players

[gritty blaze]

Ahh

[exotic bane]

tryna make a draft rn

optimal forwards would be watkins toney kane

[mystic wolf]

Keepers ward and raya

[exotic bane]

eh

kepa over raya tbh

[mystic wolf]

That works too

Ha u made a draft yet

[exotic bane]

me?

idk it’s up to the lad

half of the games fun is from making draft sooo he can make one first yk

but if he wants me to make one then sure

[gritty blaze]

Draft?

What's that th9

Tho*

[mystic wolf]

Draft is a blue print for creating a fpl team. Very useful Especially if used on wild card

[gritty blaze]

Ah like an overview?

[mystic wolf]

Kinda

U used wildcard?

[gritty blaze]

I didn't yet

Still working on it

[mystic wolf]

Just use the wildcard.

Then play around with the team

[gritty blaze]

Cool cool will do

[mystic wolf]

U get unlimited transfers

So no fear of mistakes

Ping me when done . I will take a look

[gritty blaze]

Sure sure

How many days left for deadline? I think there's 3 more

[mystic wolf]

Yea lot of time . U can make a potential team . Then we can later finalise the lineup

[mystic wolf]

Free up a bit funds cause you want haaland in after 30 . 31 by latest

Though this is fine for now

[exotic bane]

u can sell estu

cuz now u can only field 10 man

also wouldn’t recommend double arsenal defence

[gritty blaze]

As in?

[exotic bane]

you dont have 11 starting players in this draft

estu mitoma mac rashford blanking 28

[tidal moat]

I mean it's difficult because you can't really go template because you have no value built up

Don't go Mudryk also

Also personally would prefer a second newcastle defender instead of Gabriel

[gritty blaze]

Didn't get you

[tidal moat]

And a Brentford defender

[gritty blaze]

3 Brighton ideal?

[tidal moat]

"template" basically means the meta. Over the course of the season, players prices increase and decrease allowing players to gain value. Most players at this point in the season would probably essentially have a budget of 102, whereas since you just started you only have a budget of 100

[tidal moat]

Possibly, or two brighton and bring the third in next week

[gritty blaze]

Oh

Lemme get a new one after the changes a sec

[mystic wolf]

Yup

Thats a good one

Most people are fielding 10 in 28 plus good setup for 29

Good job

[gritty blaze]

Thanks!

Should I go for 343 or 433

Or some other form

[ivory axle]

doesnt matter as you have only 10 playrs

[gritty blaze]

Ah

Kane or Watkins as captain tho

[ivory axle]

kane ofc

[gritty blaze]

Kay kay

[gritty blaze]

What do you tell to a new guy starting in gw27

And how good is it to score a 60 , not going for ranks , just working on other stuff

[ivory axle]

a good score depends on what the avg score is

if you score above avg, its a good week

if you score 20+ points above avg, its a great week

30/40+, thats the best

[mystic wolf]

Avg is 47 so you did good with 60

Keeping in mind it's your first time

[gritty blaze]

Ah makes sense

Thanks xay and newerty

[mystic wolf]

It's xav

[ivory axle]

na its xay man

[mystic wolf]

[gritty blaze]

Mb homie corrected

[exotic bane]

rah

sell mac or estu

why would u wanna field 10 when you have the choice to field 11

[gritty blaze]

Ah true

[exotic bane]

maybe a forest defender

they are home merchants

and they got two home games in 3 games i think

[gritty blaze]

How's daka

[exotic bane]

wouldn’t go double leister

[gritty blaze]

For mid

Ah

[gritty blaze]

I have williams , Gabriel , trip and chil atm

[exotic bane]

neco?

[gritty blaze]

?

[exotic bane]

neco williams?

forest?

[gritty blaze]

Yep

[exotic bane]

nahhh

he ain’t nailed

[gritty blaze]

Ah

Worall?

[exotic bane]

get lodi

lodi

he got more attacking threat compared to other forest defenders

[gritty blaze]

Gotcha

And mid?

[exotic bane]

u can keep mac

[gritty blaze]

Worall seems consistent too

[exotic bane]

just replace estu

with lodi

[gritty blaze]

Mac doesn't play in 28 tho

[exotic bane]

bench him

bench rashford mac mitoma

start the others

should be exactly 11

[exotic bane]

according to this

youre still doing bb29 right

[gritty blaze]

Bb29?

[exotic bane]

bench boost gw29

[gritty blaze]

Yep i am

[exotic bane]

yea then do estu to lodi

[gritty blaze]

So you mean keep mee?

[exotic bane]

yes ofc

change estu to lodi rn

then you can roll your free transfer next week

and try to get back haaland in gw30

[gritty blaze]

So estu to Lodi rn

Then at gw29

Bring Brighton in with bb

And then bring haaland back for 30

[exotic bane]

nah

roll

save your transfer

[exotic bane]

this team with lodi replacing estu is good enough

12 doublers

[gritty blaze]

I mean sub in Brighton for gw29?

[exotic bane]

you don’t need to sub anyone in if you bench boost

well just start your captain

and bench anyone you want

the points will count

[gritty blaze]

Oh i didn't know rhat

That*

So bb is counted for the whole squad i have rn including the bench

[exotic bane]

yes

[gritty blaze]

Gotcha

Just thinking on lodi and worall

[tidal moat]

solid 👍

[gritty blaze]

Another option ,

[tidal moat]

No

First one better

[gritty blaze]

Gotcha

[hollow ice]

do you have your wildcard?

[gritty blaze]

Yes

I started on GW27 if you don't know

[hollow ice]

I like this option better

but i'd probably move zinchenko out for someone who plays both in 28 and doubles in 29

unless you prefer the single g ame week next wek

week*

[mystic wolf]

Brentford def right

[hollow ice]

thats fine too

[gritty blaze]

Gotcha

[gritty blaze]

Suggestions on this tho?

[hollow ice]

if you want their double isnt great

[hollow ice]

its fine too

[mystic wolf]

I see

[hollow ice]

i prefer keeping haaland to keeping maca

[gritty blaze]

Gotcha

[mystic wolf]

Whats ur view on the replacement?

[hollow ice]

its fine prob the b est replacement

if i were taking Haaland out i'd go with watkins

[tidal moat]

I didn't mention it earlier but if you're going to take out Haaland you need to make sure you have enough ITB to bring him back and/or a plan to get him back

[gritty blaze]

Ah

[mystic wolf]

Good point

[tidal moat]

By GW30

[gritty blaze]

Is 1.5 + Watkins or Toney enough

[tidal moat]

No you’d have to downgrade another play as well

[gritty blaze]

So should I go for first or second then

[gritty blaze]

@mystic wolf you reckon i do second?

But i need a good midfielder for 4.9

[mystic wolf]

Outarra

5

[gritty blaze]

I have 4.9

Duh

[mystic wolf]

Get andreas

I like 2nd one better

[gritty blaze]

I need dgw guy

And not bgw

[mystic wolf]

I can't remember. Let me see

Jensen

Brentford

[exotic bane]

whats your current team lookin like

[exotic bane]

do dis

and bench bench 29

u can roll the transfer

[gritty blaze]

You mean bench boost?

WB haaland then

[exotic bane]

ye typo myb

[exotic bane]

get him 30

[mystic wolf]

Bench can't be benched. It's bench boost

[exotic bane]

thats why u can roll 29

[gritty blaze]

Does free transfer not cost money

Cause then who will i remove for haal

[exotic bane]

i would prob sell saka and toney in 30

haa in for toney and saka in for whoever u can afford

[mystic wolf]

Same strat

[exotic bane]

prob need to sell madders too

its alright to take a hit

[gritty blaze]

Maybe madders and toney

[exotic bane]

how many funds u have left if u sell these two and get haaland in?

[gritty blaze]

15.5?

8.1+7.4

Then

Haal if 12.1

That's like 3.1 i believe

3.4*

[exotic bane]

well

maybe sell saka or zinchenko

or one of the brighton ones

[gritty blaze]

Saka and toney

Or saka and Brighton you mean

[exotic bane]

wouldnt have enough

sell three players

[gritty blaze]

Ah okay

[gritty blaze]

So on how they perform on gw 28

[exotic bane]

well

partially

[gritty blaze]

Ah

[exotic bane]

imo toney is a must sell

in 30

[gritty blaze]

Agreed

Can't risk one more yellow lmao

Is the defense alr?

[exotic bane]

u mean

[exotic bane]

the second one?

[gritty blaze]

Nope the one you recommended to wc

[exotic bane]

dis?

[gritty blaze]

Yes

[exotic bane]

looks good

[gritty blaze]

Any changes you'd recommend

[exotic bane]

i personally have a forest over botman

but its up to you

both is fine

are

[gritty blaze]

Ah okay

All others fine?

Subs and stuff

[exotic bane]

ye

[gritty blaze]

How much did you end on

[exotic bane]

this gw?

[gritty blaze]

Yep
