current draft

[languid burrow]

or go for like a barnes type GW3

fixtures are enough to make me worry low-key

oh you’ve done a 3-4-3?

yeah but then how do u get pedro out y’know

at least with a 3-5-2 u can go 8.0 and pedro to 6.5 and jackson

[novel nacelle]

Me? Ive been changing it every 5 mins lol

[trail rose]

happy birthday btw

[sweet rain]

jesus christ this where the convo at

[trail rose]

oh shit hes here

[chrome flint]

The gvardiol guy

[languid burrow]

🐐

[chrome flint]

Eze Watkins Vs Jackson maddison, quite like it tbf

[languid burrow]

[novel nacelle]

Yeah idk

[void whale]

[sweet rain]

lol?

[trail rose]

my nunez propaganda partner

[trail rose]

gvardiol is here

[novel nacelle]

I just dont rate jackson if chelsea have no proper 10

[chrome flint]

Watkins might not be on pens tho

[novel nacelle]

I like maddison though

[chrome flint]

Nkunku out being so over exaggerated imo

[novel nacelle]

Maybe not but we dont really have any pen takers

[sweet rain]

me and gautham are boys now

[languid burrow]

chuk

[novel nacelle]

Lemme find something 1 min

[void whale]

oh lmao

[trail rose]

i dont have foden and maddo

[chrome flint]

Statistically one player never really effects the whole team because everything is system based nowadays

[trail rose]

@void whale how

[void whale]

who do u have

[chrome flint]

If anything it makes Jackson nailed with pens

[void whale]

im sorry for replacing you

its just that

[trail rose]

playing a 3-4-3

[sweet rain]

how’d i rub u the wrong way

[void whale]

he has gvardiol

[trail rose]

so do i

[trail rose]

[void whale]

oh

why didnt you tell me earlier

[trail rose]

fuck you gautham

[void whale]

NO

[sweet rain]

it’s okay gautham

[void whale]

dont leave me smooth

[sweet rain]

u can have him

i will leave

although it pains my heart

💔

[trail rose]

we arent mates now guatham

[void whale]

damn

[trail rose]

betrayed me so hard

[void whale]

alr bro

[rough sundial]

Who is on pens then if Watkins isnt

[chrome flint]

Could be but sounds like overthinking imo, unai will do whats best for the team and Watkins should have the professionalism to abide by that

[trail rose]

IM JK

[void whale]

i know

[languid burrow]

[void whale]

im playing along

[trail rose]

oh shi

[novel nacelle]

Yeah but we dont have any obvious takers

Possibly tielemans

[chrome flint]

Tielemans, cout

[trail rose]

basically gvardiol gang

[void whale]

https://tenor.com/view/giga-chad-nice-gif-23708840

[novel nacelle]

But he wont always be playing

Coutinho wont play much

[chrome flint]

Douglas luiz?

[novel nacelle]

I want him off to saudi

[languid burrow]

i’m feeling barnes from GW3 fr

[novel nacelle]

well, he didnt take it last season

[trail rose]

@languid burrow how old now

[languid burrow]

pool home brighton away then good fixtures

[ancient temple]

why tf is there 40+ ppl added to this thread

[void whale]

thank god im not the only one

[chrome flint]

Yeah but does he have a career record

[languid burrow]

no dox sadly

young tho

[chrome flint]

Cos Watkins is just woeful

[trail rose]

[trail rose]

less than 20?

[ancient temple]

im feeling him from gw5

[novel nacelle]

I think watkins might just be on them anyway

[void whale]

this is fpl chat for people with crazy ideas

[trail rose]

more than 15?

[novel nacelle]

If tielemans isnt playing

[void whale]

if u dont have crazy ideas please leave

[ancient temple]

is this crazy

[trail rose]

@languid burrow we might be the same age ya know

[void whale]

no

[novel nacelle]

Dont get cash

[ancient temple]

no bruno tho

[languid burrow]

oh yeah?

[void whale]

guess the age or what

[languid burrow]

if u are dm me

[chrome flint]

Literally just get Fernandes wtf

[ancient temple]

how bro

[chrome flint]

Diaby on the bench

[void whale]

yeah u should get bruno

[trail rose]

rashford gangg

[ancient temple]

rotating with eze

[void whale]

ive gone bruno for now

rashy playing up front is dog

[languid burrow]

bro idek how u guys are affording .5 u know

[ancient temple]

and i prefer Rashford

[chrome flint]

Rotation

[languid burrow]

if u have salah

[novel nacelle]

Rashford up front

[trail rose]

i dont have .5

thats the thing

[sweet rain]

does this mean i can come back?

[chrome flint]

Rotating 6.5s is even worse than rotating keepers

[sweet rain]

or not yet…

[trail rose]

yeah join me and gautham

[sweet rain]

oh nice

[trail rose]

you are welcomed

[ancient temple]

someone help me get rashford in, also what's this thread for

[chrome flint]

Literally have 2m less in your first 11 than everyone else

[sweet rain]

that’s exciting

if u can’t tell by my username

[trail rose]

a bunch of people with dumb ideas

[void whale]

3️⃣ some

[sweet rain]

i’m keeping gvardiol in my entire fpl draft

[chrome flint]

Just downgrade diaby and get rash for maddison

[sweet rain]

from GW 1 to GW 45

or whayever

[chrome flint]

And then upgrade cash cos he ain't nailed

[ancient temple]

no i want maddison

[ancient temple]

to gvardiol ye

[rough sundial]

FPL Chat + offtopic but just under Ayy's RMT

[chrome flint]

No

[ancient temple]

ill do that but i have no money

[ancient temple]

oh

[trail rose]

yes

[ancient temple]

whos ayy

[trail rose]

happy i found this

[static anvil]

Looks good but ditch cash

[trail rose]

@fading spire

[languid burrow]

neither do i but rash over bruno idk how ur affording ibr

[trail rose]

this guy

[static anvil]

Ngl, think its too early for nunez

[trail rose]

yeah true

[rough sundial]

#fpl_polls message

Should vote for this in my opinion

[trail rose]

nah we just propaganda nunez for others to get mudded, am i right triocta?

[ancient temple]

i might do eze to rashford, jackson to 4.5 and cash to gvardiol

but im taking myself out

[chrome flint]

@ancient temple this is getting chaotic but Jackson to 4.5, Diaby to Rashford, Onana to 4.5, Cash to gvardiol/gabriel

[novel nacelle]

I do kinda like my team rn

7 pen takers is so peng

[trail rose]

aight brb

wtf

[static anvil]

Our team in last preseason game was mac sloz gapko diaz jota salah

[ancient temple]

my team was like that before 💀
i dont want a 4.5 mid/striker tho

[languid burrow]

4-4-2

[chrome flint]

Well you gotta have one you melon

[chrome flint]

352

Can you read

[languid burrow]

this tbh 🦅

[trail rose]

3-4-3 best one

[languid burrow]

i’m on the tube calm

it loaded

[chrome flint]

For all you visual learners

[languid burrow]

but yes otherwise too much on the bench

[sweet rain]

whom

[chrome flint]

[languid burrow]

mart bruno clears rash maddi frfr

[chrome flint]

The guy wanted Rashford bro let me chill

[static anvil]

Just have all 4? Problem solved

[trail rose]

classiic do you and triocta have the same team

[languid burrow]

no

maybe

[chrome flint]

@ancient temple

[languid burrow]

unlikely

[chrome flint]

Idek anymore it changes everyday

Schrödinger's FPL team rn

[languid burrow]

how

no salah?

[static anvil]

No, have salah too. Ez

[novel nacelle]

Does maddison get subbed

[static anvil]

Stack the midfield, rotate 4.0m defenders. Easy

[trail rose]

brb

[novel nacelle]

I’m on the train of getting whoever plays 115 mins

[chrome flint]

No idea but he's literally nailed to the cross

[novel nacelle]

Yeah ik that

But subbed at 80 matters now

[sweet rain]

permission to post team here?

[languid burrow]

u don’t have saka?

[chrome flint]

Apparently he plays 100mins

[novel nacelle]

Good option then

Arghhhh

Salah vs kane

Kane is such a good option as well

[chrome flint]

Thing is, if kane is doing that well just do haaland to Kane

[novel nacelle]

Ange is 10x more attacking than conte

[hardy vault]

Both can be massive. But would trade Salah for Kane later on when we know more

[novel nacelle]

If you add more goals from ange system

Kane would legit outscore haaland

From last season

[chrome flint]

Reminder that Salah had 19 goals and Kane has 30, Salah had higher xG, if he regresses to his mean of above average finishing he's gonna get a lot more

[hardy vault]

Yup «could»

[novel nacelle]

Can I convince anyone else on gvardiol

Ur gonna do estu to gvardiol in gw3 anyway

Save urself a transfer

[chrome flint]

Except I need them to play gw1-3

[static anvil]

[novel nacelle]

Baldock is good gw1 and 2

But I think gvardiol will start anyway

[chrome flint]

walker staying

cancelo can very much play where gvardiol is

[chrome flint]

Confirmation bias rn

they didnt even play that system in the shield

he very well could start not saying he wont

but you are tryna find information to support that

[novel nacelle]

what confirmation

i just made my own prediction

[sweet rain]

sorry in advance

[novel nacelle]

if he starts then great, if he doesn't start idm that much since baldock comes in who has an OK fixture

[sweet rain]

1 or 2

[novel nacelle]

the one without garnacho

3 brighton probably too much though

[sweet rain]

i like brightons first 3

[novel nacelle]

you will have too many players to sell

[sweet rain]

okay

who u suggest

[chrome flint]

but he could be subbed on thats the thing

[novel nacelle]

i would sell mitoma

[novel nacelle]

hmm

[chrome flint]

Diaby/Mbeumo

[novel nacelle]

didnt consider that

[novel nacelle]

eze

[novel nacelle]

well hopefully we get leaks anyway

[sweet rain]

gonna sub colwill for estupinian after Gw 3

[chrome flint]

pep likes to sub out his defenders a lot

[sweet rain]

so don’t need to sell estu

will rotate w colwill based off fixtures

[novel nacelle]

you need to consider when badiashile is back

and if diasai can play there

[chrome flint]

Disasi is Fofana "replacement"

[sweet rain]

who played limited minutes regardless

[chrome flint]

well cos they sold half their team now

[sweet rain]

i still think thiago and colwill will be first choice

[trail rose]

aight im back

[sweet rain]

i made a threemium team 😭

it’s kinda ass

[trail rose]

wait imma add someone

[sweet rain]

scroll up

[trail rose]

show

@acoustic locust this is a thread so we can post our dumb ideas

[sweet rain]

above

[novel nacelle]

I did consider it

[trail rose]

thats decent apart from garnacho

[novel nacelle]

but yeah

[chrome flint]

rip ayys thread

[novel nacelle]

You can go with chuk

[sweet rain]

who instead u recon

[trail rose]

how much is garnacho

[sweet rain]

chuk won’t play will he

5.0

[trail rose]

how much itb

[sweet rain]

0.000000

[trail rose]

uh

[sweet rain]

gvardiol is untouchable

[trail rose]

really limited options

reed maybe?

[sweet rain]

yeah idk if i like it

[trail rose]

decordiva reed?

[sweet rain]

will need to sell one of them soon

[trail rose]

caicedo?

[sweet rain]

if i went with it

i think it just impossible

would require too many trades

like sell kane then upgrade the entire midfield

impossible

[chrome flint]

changing topic but is anyone doing draft this year

[sweet rain]

kane and salah don’t have amazing fixtures

[novel nacelle]

spurs have quite good fix

[sweet rain]

idk which to choose

do fpl teams with 2 premium forwards often do well

or not

[novel nacelle]

Do you prefer johnstone + turner rotation or pickford + turner rotation

I'll probably go with johnstone because palace are a better defence than everton

but everton and forest do rotate pretty well

[chrome flint]

not bothered with rotation really

id choose the better defence

[novel nacelle]

yeah

dodging arsenal gw2 is nice though

i will say it feels weird owning double palace

[sweet rain]

new lil team with kdb too

[chrome flint]

just isnt gonna work tho

3 premiums

[novel nacelle]

dont get luiz bro

[sweet rain]

trying to find a way

[ancient temple]

luiz 💀

[chrome flint]

premiums have less value than 6.5 mids when not capped

[sweet rain]

it not my real team 😢

that my team

[chrome flint]

change mitoma

then its okay

[sweet rain]

nah mitoma scores 3 in the first 3 matches

[sweet rain]

okay?

damn

[chrome flint]

fpl is fucked rn

dont think theres any good team

[chrome flint]

well you cant have triple bha really

i think hes fine indivually but youve got 3 planned transfers for gw3

[static anvil]

On the contrary, there are so many good teams, that no team is the outright best.

[chrome flint]

are you talking about the league or fpl

[static anvil]

Fpl

Are you?

[chrome flint]

yeah but it applies to both

and slight disagree

onemium teams look great until salah or kane inevitably start firing

and twomiums are restricted

neither is optimal

[static anvil]

I think that theres about 5 or 6 different really strong 'template' drafts, and each has its strengths and weaknesses, but each drafts weakness is the strength of another, almost like a rock paper scissors type setup, only with 5 or 6 drafts

[novel nacelle]

its salah/pedro vs rashford and another mid

[static anvil]

You have to add a third player in there though. Cause its not a direct replacement, even if they are benched

[novel nacelle]

it basically is that

maybe i have johnstone instead of onana or something

[storm gyro]

Is this where we post our ideas? Ive been changing it 10 times a day

[novel nacelle]

yeah i think trip brighton is too much

[trail rose]

yeah

double is good

mitoma to mbuemo and your good

[ancient temple]

guys jackson and diaby or Watkins and chukwumenka + 1m

[novel nacelle]

if ur starting them then the 1st one

[ancient temple]

just for this week im benching diaby

or chukwumenka

whoever im getting

[novel nacelle]

dont bench someone ur spending money on

I like how everyone has gotten rid of martinelli in the past day

[languid burrow]

nope

pedro is a constant imo

[novel nacelle]

Yeah im saying in the average template

[languid burrow]

it’s onana + ode + stones + rash vs salah + gabriel + diaby + johnstone

[languid burrow]

yeah v. true

[novel nacelle]

I’m still debating bruno vs ode

Some people were saying buno plays deeper with mount

But ig ode could play deeper with havertz as well

[languid burrow]

i’m going bruno if no rash

but ode if rash and no mart

[trail rose]

you finalised a draft yet?

[novel nacelle]

Rash isn’t in my thinking rn

[trail rose]

or you still thinking

[chrome flint]

this just isnt true

[novel nacelle]

Its bruno vs another arsenal mid

[novel nacelle]

good to know

[languid burrow]

nope

finalised a salah and non salah

just gotta debate the 2

[trail rose]

salah one

by far

[languid burrow]

lmao fair

salah one doesn’t have any spurs coverage and no real way bar mart out but that means no jackson

[trail rose]

did you see the nkunku news

[languid burrow]

no salah does have maddi and double chelsea

so sad ong

[trail rose]

jackson nailed now

[quaint trout]

Is double cb arsenal a good idea ?

[chrome flint]

theres no def id double up on rn

[chrome flint]

you can get both

[languid burrow]

[quaint trout]

Get a Chelsea def ?

To replace one of them

?

[quaint trout]

chilly

[trail rose]

yeah has to be chilwell

[ancient temple]

i have all

but no rashford or bruno

[trail rose]

need atleast one of them

[jade meteor]

https://tenor.com/view/invisible-ink-pig-head-memoji-gif-25029183

[storm gyro]

Yea i guess that makes sense, thanks 👍

[trail rose]

no problem

[novel nacelle]

i'm basically considering these spots

and ig salah vs kane

[storm gyro]

Are people going gvardiol over Stones just for the extra 0.5 itb?

[novel nacelle]

because he is underpriced, i'm not having money itb

[novel nacelle]

Kane is so temtping man

[upbeat mountain]

Kane is tempting, til you actually try to make a Kane draft

Then its not tempting anymore

[novel nacelle]

yeah it looks banging

[upbeat mountain]

No Salah and no Rashford is a tad scary though

[quaint trout]

yeah i think i’d have salah over kane

just because i’m not sure when i’d captain kane

[void whale]

kane and madders is overkill

just get salah

if u have madders

[novel nacelle]

that's now how points work

you want the players with the highest expected points

[quaint trout]

i think you only get one of kane or salah if you captain them semi regularly

doubt you captain kane gw2

salah is

that’s the point of a premium

[void whale]

a hit or a miss

either spurs play well and u get 30 pts from those 2 or they flop and u get 4

high risk high reward and i dont like relying on spurs

[novel nacelle]

that is irellevant

[void whale]

whatever man

dont complain when u get 4 pts from em

[quaint trout]

teams shouldn’t come in to when picking individual assets

[novel nacelle]

it's a fallacy

[languid burrow]

there’s probably a midpoint between the 2 ideas there

logically if a team loses their best player and u have tripled up and they’re worse from there - it’s 3 transfers out

but we’re not in covid times anymore so

[fading spire]

Interesting proposition

Kai as the 7.5 mid and jp up top

[upbeat mountain]

Kai

[fading spire]

more nailed than Eddie

[jade meteor]

That is the worst draft I have ever seen

[novel nacelle]

just get maddison

[quaint trout]

[novel nacelle]

yeah thats my kane draft except 343 with pedro

[autumn wave]

Yep

Same for me expect turner Johnstone meta

And pinnock sub for more flexibility since Pedro starting

[novel nacelle]

i switched to rashford

man theres so many close picks this season

[quaint trout]

i’ve gone rashford last couple days too

Ngl i don’t feel rashford

Neither mitoma

[novel nacelle]

lateriser is on rashford instead of bruno and hes a utd fan

[quaint trout]

For me Maddison and saka are vital

[ancient temple]

this is good but it has no rashford or bruno

or this if i want salah

[fading spire]

And diaz isn’t nailed

And gvardiol idk if he starts right away

[round wharf]

Why diaz and chillwell?

[ancient temple]

gvardiol to gabriel then

[quaint trout]

whoever your least favourite attacker is downgrade him to 4.5

then reinvest into your actual 11

[static anvil]

Only part I don't like is JP, rest looks spicy

Havertz such a gamble though. I think that tross will outscore him even with less mins

[fading spire]

Could be Foden Eddie or Maddo Eddie

[fading spire]

Didn’t originally have him until I read the thread about our community shield lineup against city

But some guy pointed out kai will either be left 8 or the false 9 so his xMins is more than eddie

And he’s been getting into good positions

[novel nacelle]

yeah i agree with that

[fading spire]

Just a matter of finishing

[novel nacelle]

i think he will start in the 8

[fading spire]

At least his shots were on target

[novel nacelle]

dunno how many points he will get though looool

[fading spire]

Yea I think so too for the forest game

[novel nacelle]

i like madders/watkins more

[fading spire]

Scored twice already coming in late

And against city got 2 big chances

only thing is if I was confident Eddie starts

He might be the one

I was like 75% confident before cs now only 60%

[novel nacelle]

to me the best lineup sounds like trossard and havertz

for forest

[fading spire]

Really

[novel nacelle]

doesnt the team play well with trossard up front

not saying ik what he will play

just my opinion on what id do

[fading spire]

different skill sets

Tross runs in behind well

[static anvil]

Don't get me wrong, I've strongly considered him, but if he is as wasteful as he was last season at chelsea, I don't want to have him constantly blanking and missing chances causing me stress, when someone like maddison or foden are higher owned and getting more points. I'm willing to go without havertz because his ownership is so low, that if he does get a few good returns, I can still jump on him and not miss out too much.

[fading spire]

Eddie holds play up well similar to kai

But more clinical I think

[fading spire]

Fair

Don’t think he has been overly wasteful in preseason (but also haven’t had too many clear chances)

[novel nacelle]

in theory trossard can play midfield and eddie up front right

[fading spire]

Yes

It’s Kai tross Eddie for 2 spots with tross and Eddie possibly stealing Mart’s spot

[novel nacelle]

well

you can throw partey in the mix as well

[fading spire]

Nah

Partey competes with rice

But rice can also play left 8

Or what Arteta did which is use a double pivot against city

[novel nacelle]

yep

so only 1 of the other 3 could play

i do think no partey gw1 is more likely but you have to consider it

[autumn wave]

I think a more solid team for me especially against the better teams is partey rice

Similar to last year

Idk why he thinks it needs changing

[novel nacelle]

ayy wdyt on bruno vs rash

i can fund rash if i start udogie

which idm doing

[fading spire]

coin said rash

[novel nacelle]

lol

rash it is

[static anvil]

Lmaoo back to this

[autumn wave]

Is udogie acc solid

[novel nacelle]

yes

[autumn wave]

Him instead of Gabriel or estupinan

[novel nacelle]

i’m not a big fan of either

[autumn wave]

Also what points we expecting from him then

Roughly

[novel nacelle]

not clean sheets but he is attacking

[autumn wave]

Cause I’m just seeing whether estupinan Fernandes or rashford udogie

I don’t watch United or Brighton games so idrk

[novel nacelle]

yeah same basically

i will go for gvardiol if he is in the leaked lineup

[autumn wave]

Idk bout city defenders since they all fit

I don’t like them

[novel nacelle]

well they play 4 of them every game

[autumn wave]

True

[novel nacelle]

laporte is out of favour and ake is injured

[autumn wave]

So all of them solid?

Imma wait with gvardiol

Might get him in gw2

[chrome flint]

walker and cancelo exist

[novel nacelle]

not sure cancelo exists

[autumn wave]

Walker I think is gonna be more a europe player this season

[chrome flint]

literally played community shield and is signing a new contract

[autumn wave]

Exactly

He’ll play the odd game when pep needs him

But he’s not an out and out every week player

Trophies and such

[chrome flint]

Why wouldn't he be

He's still one of the best fullbacks itw

[novel nacelle]

yeah but city dont play with fullbacks

[hardy vault]

A Kane + Salah draft is tempting me 😭 Talk me out of it.

[autumn wave]

Icl it took me ages to see what was wrong with it 😭😭

I was like how tf did u have so much money

[hardy vault]

It’s not even much money. Just 1.5

😭

[autumn wave]

I’ve been tinkering so much 1.5 looks enormous

Pause

U have to be 100% sure that u make use of that extra 1.5

Like perfectly

Otherwise it not worth it

[hardy vault]

I know..

[autumn wave]

Accc

Wait 😭

[hardy vault]

Prob not gonna run it. But it tempts me

[autumn wave]

They are only 9 points difference

Last year

That’s kinda crazy

I thought it was way more

Honestly it’s not a bad shout at all

U gotta have massive balls tho

[chrome flint]

They were using a new system the whole of preseason, that's why stones has been playing rcb

[novel nacelle]

idk if it can rly be considered fullbacks

but yeah

idk which 5.0 to go for

estu gabriel gvardiol all close

[chrome flint]

Id just do estu to gvardiol gw3

No reason to start with him especially since super cup as well

[novel nacelle]

i just dont like planned transfers

[static anvil]

Estu gonna drop by 0.1 or 0.2 in gw 2-3 due to everyone moving off brighton

[novel nacelle]

brighton prolly get 0-1 clean sheets

i might go gabriel coz can keep him long term

or gvardiol

[static anvil]

I'd go gabriel

Over gvard

You know what you get vs pure wildcard

[chrome flint]

1-2 more likely, 55% C's odds gw1 alone

[novel nacelle]

well id guess

1 is most likely

and 0-2 similar odds

[autumn wave]

Yeh

[novel nacelle]

i just dont like getting a defender for 2 gws

waste of a transfer

[chrome flint]

3gws

Idm going against it

Just getting the stats right

[novel nacelle]

u get gvardiol if theres a leak?

[autumn wave]

How long before do leaks come

[novel nacelle]

depends

[autumn wave]

Like days?

[novel nacelle]

nah

usually a short amount before

[autumn wave]

Surely by then deadline already gone no

Or is the leaks only for gw1

[novel nacelle]

nah it can be 2 hours before or something

they release the lineups publicly 1 hour before

[autumn wave]

Yh

Gvardiol is a shout

[novel nacelle]

the question is knowing which leaks are legit

and which are dodgy

[autumn wave]

I just think my team already too different to change that aswell

Honestly kane is so underrated

Donny got same points as haaland

And haaland 90% ownership for 1.5 mil more

Thought it would be more close

[novel nacelle]

well haaland is the best striker in the world for the best team in the world with good fixtures

[hardy vault]

Maddison or Martinelli if we ignore price diff?

[novel nacelle]

mart probably

[slim beacon]

Martinelli

[chrome flint]

Maddison long term

[hardy vault]

Ill swap later on then

[novel nacelle]

mart is much more of a goalscorer

[autumn wave]

Is Maddison much better than a 6.5

[novel nacelle]

depends from where you are allocating the funds

[chrome flint]

I mean it depends how you put it

But maddison is the second most key attacking asset to a side that looks to be a top 3 attack this season

[static anvil]

What order would you rank the top 6 attacks?

[autumn wave]

Yeh

[novel nacelle]

city, pool, arsenal, spurs, brighton, utd, villa, newcastle/chelsea

[chrome flint]

I mean it's hard to say early season but in preseason spurs have had over 30 shots a game

Which is ridiculous

The highest average last season was 16

[novel nacelle]

ur tempting me into kane more

[autumn wave]

It’s so difficult

One thing I can say is that you are boring if you don’t have one or the other

[novel nacelle]

well pedro makes it very easy to fit them in

[autumn wave]

Yeh

[quaint trout]

[hardy vault]

Salah 9 returns in preseason

[autumn wave]

And kane scored 4 the other day

Can u fit all three in? 😂

[quaint trout]

no

[autumn wave]

Hm

They are fitting

[hardy vault]

The dude who won FPL last year is starting with Trent on the bench lol

Madlad

[autumn wave]

Baller

Icl as much as we’ll all try analyse it the game is luck

Pretty much

[hardy vault]

I mean he got rank 215 the year before that tho

Hes going Mitoma Saka, Rash, Foden, Trossard

[quaint trout]

[languid burrow]

been looking at the united fixtures

and looking at the spurs fixtures

rash pedro to maddi jackson

GW3

where the only issue is no united GW3

ughhh

[novel nacelle]

dont plan transfers lol

[languid burrow]

yeah i’m not

just considering possibilities

[languid burrow]

i mean u could do it GW4 or something? rash(forest at home) and pedro (WH at home) vs maddi (bou away) and jackson(luton home)

ugh i’ll think abt it more in the morning

[novel nacelle]

i have this rn

not sure about the gabriel spot

[languid burrow]

oh i see yeah

ur on a 4.5 def slot

i was on patterson for all of 2 hours until i decided

[novel nacelle]

depends whether i want rash

but udogie looks good

[languid burrow]

mart clears watkins though

[novel nacelle]

i dunno

bit turned off by 60 mins every game

[languid burrow]

and then if u want to argue it - mart and udogie vs maddi and gabriel/estu

which gives u estu cover

no outlets for pedro but charge it

[novel nacelle]

watkins should have a good season

[languid burrow]

i mean yeah i think villa will

i’m on diaby for a reason

[chrome flint]

Id take Watkins over mart

[languid burrow]

really?

[chrome flint]

Talisman theory and all that

Second most nailed fwd after kane iirc

Long term will do well

[novel nacelle]

i like diaby but can we predict how many g/a he will get

[chrome flint]

At least 10 and 10 in all comps imo

[languid burrow]

just need ortega to be an option

so bad

[chrome flint]

For diaby

[novel nacelle]

mmm i think he might get subbed after like 80 mins

[chrome flint]

Sanchez might be an option

[chrome flint]

He averaged 83 I think last season maybe more

[languid burrow]

and then can do double 4.0 GKS, pick up patterson, then easy mart -> rash

[chrome flint]

So yeah that's good

[languid burrow]

[novel nacelle]

if we're winning the game

[chrome flint]

Kepa might be going bayern

[novel nacelle]

he probably goes off for archer

[chrome flint]

Might get Sanchez then

[languid burrow]

but then would u guys argue ode gabriel is better than rash patterson?

[novel nacelle]

if kepa does leave then yeah maybe

[chrome flint]

Why don't you just get branthwaite

[novel nacelle]

i dont get patterson

just get udogie

backing everton defence?

[languid burrow]

not nailed surely

[novel nacelle]

evertons defence has gotten worse

they lost mina

[languid burrow]

not nailed?

[novel nacelle]

signed nobody

[novel nacelle]

i am confident enough he starts

reguilon played the b team game

[languid burrow]

rash pedro to jackson maddison looks HOT

[chrome flint]

Tarkowski injured, we don't know for sure but likely, just don't get Patterson jfc

[quaint trout]

i’m stuck between like 3 players now

rash wissa jackson

[novel nacelle]

this team = the players not starting vs brentford

ignoring the keeper

[languid burrow]

yeah i get u

ode udogie vs gabriel mart?

[novel nacelle]

well

i have watkins

[chrome flint]

Gab mart come on triocta what's happened to you

[languid burrow]

pmfaoooo

[chrome flint]

Stay

Away

[languid burrow]

i’m tired

[chrome flint]

From

Everton

[languid burrow]

smh

udogie 👺👺

[novel nacelle]

if gvardiol is announced to start

[chrome flint]

Overthinking at its best

[novel nacelle]

might just get him

[languid burrow]

this is not my best fpl day ibr

[chrome flint]

Udogie is an estu option gw3

[languid burrow]

if only maddison was 7.0

[novel nacelle]

y not just get him at the start

and bench for baldock gw2

[chrome flint]

Triocta send your team lad what's happened here then

[chrome flint]

Because I want estu?

Wait idek who we talking about anymore

Too many names

[languid burrow]

nothing

[novel nacelle]

well i rly think 2 gws is not worth having someoe for

[languid burrow]

i’m just theorising

the issue i have is

[chrome flint]

3 gws

[languid burrow]

spurs actually look okay

but so do chelsea

[chrome flint]

Bha have 3 good fix

[novel nacelle]

then u miss out on udogie vs bournemouth

[chrome flint]

Not 2

[languid burrow]

and pedro is wanted for first 2

[chrome flint]

Id play estu in a good fix over udogie anyday

[novel nacelle]

i am unlikely to sell pedro if he is a starter

[languid burrow]

so there is no way to go mart pedro to maddi jackson haha

[languid burrow]

jackson

[chrome flint]

Spurs will ship goals

[novel nacelle]

dont rate chelsea attack rn

[chrome flint]

80 for 80 against worth a gd of 0

[languid burrow]

brighton fixtures post GW3 are properly bad

[novel nacelle]

yeah but hes 4.5 mil

[chrome flint]

In preseason nkunku played worse as a 10 fyi

[novel nacelle]

so idc really

[languid burrow]

and i want rash for GW3

but salah is needed

[chrome flint]

He was better off the left or as a 9, movement clashed with jackson

[languid burrow]

nkunku ded anyway

[novel nacelle]

but chelsea have no number 10

in the squad

who is good enough

[chrome flint]

Don't think nkunku out affects Jackson, only if they now decide to get a striker

[languid burrow]

yes they do

chuk

4.5 option

[chrome flint]

Chuk/Gallagher played well in preseason

[novel nacelle]

he was at villa and wasnt even good enough to come off the bench

so unless hes improved a lot in a year

[chrome flint]

Well he's had like 18 months development since then

[languid burrow]

i mean morris GW4-7

isn’t AWFUL

[novel nacelle]

yeah morris could be alright

[chrome flint]

DCL/Wissa too

[languid burrow]

like pedro out to him is something

[novel nacelle]

i mean if pedro starts

not a problem

if he starts he should be priced at like 7 mil

[languid burrow]

diaby mart vs jackson maddison

[chrome flint]

He will

It's how long he starts is the problem

[novel nacelle]

watkins eze

[novel nacelle]

well prolly subbed but

hes so cheap

so doesnt matter that much

[chrome flint]

Yeah I think he will average 70

[languid burrow]

i want too many players to fit haha

salah is so so so bad for this

[chrome flint]

Wdym

[languid burrow]

it’s like looking at the steam sales when u have 22p in ur wallet as u just bought a good game

[novel nacelle]

i mean

[languid burrow]

u can’t get anyone remotely decent

i mean u can

[chrome flint]

Doubt

[languid burrow]

but u can’t get spurs cover

effectiveky

[chrome flint]

Doubt

[novel nacelle]

with salah ur basically just sacrificing one of bruno/rash

[chrome flint]

Maddison Bruno Saka Salah mid is doable

[languid burrow]

and if u do u can’t get jackson sadge

w/o having an outlet for pedro

[chrome flint]

It's not perfect

[languid burrow]

yeah 0 pedro outlet there

[chrome flint]

But it solves that criteria

[languid burrow]

unless morris punt is on

[chrome flint]

Any one of the underperforming mids gets downgraded

[novel nacelle]

ur relying on a midfield of gallagher, enzo, chuk, mudruk and sterling

not exactly inspiring is it

[chrome flint]

Nailed and on pens

Like I said nkunku played worse as a 10 in preseason

[languid burrow]

then i want diaby there

[chrome flint]

The loss of nkunku is equalled out by the gain of pens imo

[chrome flint]

Jackson to diaby +0.5

[novel nacelle]

u cant convince me nkunku to chuk isnt a downgrade

[chrome flint]

Gives you Pedro exit

[novel nacelle]

and james might be on pens

[chrome flint]

Yeah I doubt it

[novel nacelle]

i have no idea really

[languid burrow]

yeah but i want jackson there lmaoo

idk just gotta find a way

[novel nacelle]

ur all sleeping on eze

[chrome flint]

Diaby +0.5 then you can get Jackson gw3 if need be

Meh

He's okay

Don't like any 6.5 mid

[novel nacelle]

olise is still there currently

franca-eze-olise

[chrome flint]

Staying away from any team other than top 9 ideally

Franca is a centre mid am I wrong?

[novel nacelle]

winger i thought

[chrome flint]

Olise injured to start the season too

[novel nacelle]

yeah ig

i just feel eze is more safer than diaby

i have no idea what diabys output willl be

[chrome flint]

He's a centre mid/attacking mid

Diaby ss for a top 9 team > mid table team on pens

Imo

And better long term fix

[novel nacelle]

y on pens

oh

i misunderstood

thought u meant diaby is on pens

[chrome flint]

Nah

Pens add 3-4 goals a season roughly

Playing for a much better team adds a whole lot more

[novel nacelle]

diaby could bang but watkins might end up still scoring most of the goals

[chrome flint]

And increases assist threat

It felt like diaby was the one running in behind more with Watkins assisting from what I saw

Or kind equal

I think they combine a lot

But you tell me you're the villa fan

[languid burrow]

v. happy with diaby

[novel nacelle]

yeah i mean i dont know

i obviously rate him a lot as a player

[chrome flint]

Just think playing for the better team makes so much difference

Eze will do well sure

But reliance on fix

Worse teams rely more on good fix

[languid burrow]

inject the ortega leaks GW1 into my veins :

[novel nacelle]

palace fix are pretty good IMO

[languid burrow]

need ortega to start ong

[chrome flint]

19th first 10 iirc

[languid burrow]

i would COOK

[novel nacelle]

if you take out arsenal

its sheff, brentford, wolves, villa, fulham

[chrome flint]

Cherry picking a little bit igy

They aren't as bad as they seem

[novel nacelle]

well 1 bad fix in first 6

maybe villa are a bad fix

[languid burrow]

it goes diaby > mbeumo with mudryk ahead of mbeumo if he’s nailed

[chrome flint]

Defensively fine fix

[novel nacelle]

rest are decent/good

[chrome flint]

Attacking wise not so much

Villa are now a bad fix imo

[novel nacelle]

sheff are awful

brentford might do worse this season

wolves are awful

[chrome flint]

Brentford will comfortably finish mid table

[novel nacelle]

fulham look like they are collapsing a bit

[chrome flint]

Can't say they're gonna be bad

[languid burrow]

uniteds fixtures post GW3 are underrated bad

[novel nacelle]

i think theyll finish 12-14

[languid burrow]

sheff luton wolves gonna be bottom 3 hmm

[novel nacelle]

yeah true

i would predict that

[chrome flint]

There's like 8 teams primed for relegation

Then 3 midtable

[languid burrow]

so then raises the Q that rash out for maddi GW3 isn’t that bad of an idea

[novel nacelle]

maybe\

[languid burrow]

theoretically ofc

[chrome flint]

Eh

For attackers their fix are fine imo

Defensively not great

But it's not like bha have a great def

[quaint trout]

since bruno rashford is so 50/50 tempted to go bruno and invest the .5

[novel nacelle]

i had bruno for ages

switched to rash today

lol

[chrome flint]

Palace and bre are at home so

[languid burrow]

shh play into my rash pedro to maddi jackson GW3 hopium

[novel nacelle]

i kind of want to back against brighton defence

cos i think estu is over owned for how good he is

[chrome flint]

Hojlund makes rash worse, but makes Bruno better, that's my thinking

[languid burrow]

just need ortega to start in the leaks

[novel nacelle]

nah i dont agree

[languid burrow]

makes both better

[novel nacelle]

rash is good off the left

[languid burrow]

unironically

[languid burrow]

this tbh better on the left than uptop

[novel nacelle]

yh

[quaint trout]

ortega to start

wtf are you cooking

[languid burrow]

saka salah bruno rash diaby would COOK

[chrome flint]

Let's say there's 100 chances created, last season 80 would go to rash, this season he'd only get 50 and hojlund gets 50 for example

[languid burrow]

look in logs or something

[fading spire]

Samlee said so

[languid burrow]

there was a tweet posted around here

we will get city leaks anyway

[quaint trout]

is samlee reliable?

[chrome flint]

Yes

[novel nacelle]

dont think id get ortega even if hes leaked to start

looool

[languid burrow]

like idm turner ortega

[novel nacelle]

unless u wanna rely on turner

[languid burrow]

lmfao why

ortega turner is great

[fading spire]

[novel nacelle]

turner would be the enabler

[chrome flint]

He basically said pep was gonna use Ortega a lot more toward the end of last season if ederson didn't hit such great form

[quaint trout]

ortega 4?

[languid burrow]

like this is filth if he does start btw

[chrome flint]

I might do it too if turner happens

[fading spire]

Turner already happening

[chrome flint]

If worst comes to worst I'll have a playing keeper either way

[fading spire]

Probably announced today or tomorrow

[chrome flint]

If turner happens and hendo doesn't I mean

[fading spire]

Oh

[languid burrow]

don’t even hate moving not rash pedro on

like i would be v. happy

[fading spire]

Still debating between Kai and Eddie

Shag brought up a good point

[chrome flint]

[fading spire]

Even those benched might get 30 mins

[chrome flint]

Neither could start

[fading spire]

40 even

With Arteta closer to 30 tho

[languid burrow]

is ortega udogie rash better than johnstone estu mart? i would wager yeah

[chrome flint]

If youre gonna get a player that might get benched then get rrossard

[fading spire]

But why

[chrome flint]

No imo, if that's Fernandes and estu then yeah

[novel nacelle]

i would guess gw1 is tross and havertz

[fading spire]

I would guess Havertz and Eddie

[chrome flint]

I'm not huge on arsenal kids rn

👀

[novel nacelle]

if he wants eddie then why not start him in the CS

[chrome flint]

MIDS****

[fading spire]

Need an Arteta guessing game now

[novel nacelle]

i should go to sleep

[fading spire]

Needed a different profile against city

[novel nacelle]

its late

[languid burrow]

really?

like

i don’t get that

[fading spire]

City we used a double pivot

[languid burrow]

gives the outlet to maddi jackson too

[chrome flint]

Fernandes and estu > rash and udogie

[fading spire]

And kai as a threat up front

[chrome flint]

Assuming you move estu gw3

[fading spire]

Against forest we don’t need that

Probably

[languid burrow]

yeah but already got bruno

[novel nacelle]

i dont agree

[languid burrow]

cant happen

someone put it to a poll

[novel nacelle]

udogie is definitely underpriced

[chrome flint]

I just DK with rash

[languid burrow]

i wanna do a poll on something else

[chrome flint]

Spurs won't keep many cs tbh

[languid burrow]

when turner goes

[novel nacelle]

doesnt matter

if they score enough

[languid burrow]

3-6 they will

oh rather 3-5

[chrome flint]

You're acting like he's gonna be involved in every goal tho

[languid burrow]

and 8 is before WC

so

[novel nacelle]

i think brightons defence is overrated as well

[languid burrow]

4 clean sheets in 8 for a 4.5

[chrome flint]

He's gonna get a few returns, good for 4.5 but not much more than that

[novel nacelle]

no colwill

[chrome flint]

He inverts

[novel nacelle]

no caicedo

good luck

[languid burrow]

^^^

[chrome flint]

4??

[languid burrow]

yeah

[chrome flint]

They haven't kept a C's all preseason

[languid burrow]

GW3,4,5,8

[chrome flint]

I see 2/8

[languid burrow]

shhh let me keep my agenda

[chrome flint]

Bre and burnley score fs

[languid burrow]

bou don’t

[chrome flint]

Yeah ik he had a great statistical game

But that's literally shaktar

[languid burrow]

just need ortega to start GW1 and then my draft is perfect

[chrome flint]

Bournemouth massively underrated this season

[languid burrow]

if not we move onto turner and it’s slightly worse no big deal
