[oak furnace]

Yeh but I used my TC and idk if they did

[silent jasper]

TC is one of the weakest chip just so you know..

[oak furnace]

I got 17 points from it

Anyway who cares need to not fuck up this wildcard

[silent jasper]

yeah fair play but do you not know how the strength of each chip works?
You got 17 which is very good and you can't complain because you didn't blank with it

[oak furnace]

How does this look?

Just need to settle on a team

Jackson vs Solanke is hard

I think I might be better off starting off without spurs and getting them gw8 given I have at many free transfers now

[silent jasper]

just sharing if you think TC with 17 is bad
3 seasons ago I did TC with KDB or something and i got 3 or 4 points from him
Was like fuckkkk man and I was mudded while Salah TC worked out pretty well for some people.

[oak furnace]

I'm considering konate over Porro and then Moreno over one of the 4.0s

[oak furnace]

I had back to back season where I scored 1
The point is that my rank is fake until everyone in the league tcs

[violet temple]

Thoughts all 4 fts

[oak furnace]

I wouldn't do Eze to bowen

[silent jasper]

I am on Jackson with Aina/Konsa as my 3rd/4th def.
The rest are the same.

[oak furnace]

The rest are good

[violet temple]

Eze to bowen is gonna be either this week or next week👍

[silent jasper]

Bowen looks good but West Ham attack doesn't gel together as it seems

[violet temple]

Bowen could also be luis Diaz fwiw

[silent jasper]

idk I am Pool biased so I would go with Diaz

[slim bane]

Wood?

[violet temple]

Yeah best budget striker from now till 12

And nfo unlike everton don't acc seem bad

[silent jasper]

if DCL rises again I think I can sell him off to make profit

but unlikely I guess

[violet temple]

Then I get solanke in gw 7 for mateta

Will look something like this

[slim bane]

Yea so evaluate if you need a third forward lol

I decided no

[violet temple]

Takes up another transfer to swap 3rd attacker to 5th mid

[little delta]

What happened why doesn’t anyone want havertz now?

[violet temple]

He's playing midfield with ode out likely

[little delta]

Is Ode out for long

[violet temple]

Yes I think

[fleet oracle]

Actual value of 100.5 with a team value of 101.8 ffs

[slim bane]

3 weeks ish

[slim bane]

Mine is 100.6 with 101.8

[oak furnace]

Mine is 100.2 lol

[fleet oracle]

If I get 8 price rises on the correct players, my actual TV increases by 0.8

In other words, I have 8 players on a half rise

Need an arsenal CS wipe, gab goal, and haaland blank. And I will rest easy

10,6,1,16 - nic Jackson since I brought him in gw 2
3,14,3,15,16 - diaz since gw1.

Mental how 2 decisions can be the difference between almost 50 points

[oak furnace]

I got Muniz over Jackson and have jota

I have 352 points rank 1 has 447

Rank 1 used free hit this week lol

Look at rank 1 transfers so far

And starting team as well as nuts

[lone glade]

How does this look

[oak furnace]

Looks fine

[cerulean cape]

Gw8-9 plans?

[oak furnace]

I have porro/okoli over konsa/robinson how is that possible

[cerulean cape]

Also konsa not an option

Villa cannot defend

Conceded vs Everton and wolves

[oak furnace]

Mcgrr what have you settled on?

Any sneaky pods?

[latent depot]

I know but he's not ideal on WC6 and it's somewhat awkward to get him in for GW8. There are routes to Bruno, none that really appeal to me. I like Foden to Bruno GW11

[cerulean cape]

What's the preferred team atm?

[lavish parcel]

all mitoma today

[latent depot]

I'm still reluctantly on Rogers/Vardy rotation GW6-10. I'll paste later on laptop, just on my phone in bed

[oak furnace]

I'm assuming you're getting Foden based on this?

[lavish parcel]

haaland yellow card and pen saved, game ends 0-0

[latent depot]

Yes, draft depends entirely on Gvardiol/Lewis/Foden today

[cerulean cape]

What's your opinion on eze

[kind egret]

Mitoma and Pedro

[latent depot]

He's fine. Always was an xGI merchant, dunno why people are surprised. I still like Semenyo to Eze GW8, banking 0.1 on Trent 7.2 to Porro

[oak furnace]

Eze stays if ur not on wildcard imo

Otherwise he's gone

[cerulean cape]

Would you prefer eze or Diaz

[oak furnace]

I'm hoping Eze drops again might look at him for 6.8

[cerulean cape]

Slot resting him in CL is very interesting and makes him more appealing

[latent depot]

I've heard enough from Slot about Gakpo to just try and get 0.1 from Diaz. Pool's fix aren't great and there are 2 more CL matches before GW9

[cerulean cape]

I could see gw8 bench

Maybe

After IB

[fleet oracle]

Diaz this season reminds me of how Salah was in his first season. All the attacking play seems to go through him, and he is constantly looking to take on men, and beat them too, often with a shot at the end

[cerulean cape]

But do expect starts elsewhere

He's playing too well to be dropped

I loved him vs ipswich

I nearly bought him despite his blank

And obv 5 goals in 4 since

An eze without pens, makes a huge difference

Basically loses 40 points a season

[oak furnace]

Can't believe I made the worst decision for a forward when Solanke got injured it actually hurts so much

[latent depot]

I only had Diaz in no-Salah drafts. I'm satisfied that I would have prob gone Jota GW1 if I had to pick a 7.5 over Szobo. Admittedly a small part of my decision was cos I was 60/40 on Jota/Diaz and Szobo avoided the coin flips

[oak furnace]

Yeh we all knew left wing in slot system cooks yet didn't listen

5 goals in 5 games

10 goals and 5 have been Diaz

That's fucked up

Honestly need to stop thinking about past moves

But it's hard to get passed

[latent depot]

There are timelines where I went no Salah tho. I was put off Saka cos he was lacklustre in his only preseason game. Quite annoying that he wasn't sharper. Would have had Trent/Diaz/Jota triple up most likely

[oak furnace]

I had Diaz as a placeholder originally

[lone glade]

Keep porro on wc6?

[oak furnace]

Went jota cos he was striker and I thought Diaz minutes were less secure with gakpo playing so good in the euros

This is what I wrote for my starting team

Ended up going for Johnson over nedeljkovic but that's what I had

[lone glade]

Solanke or Jackson hmm

[fleet oracle]

I’m looking at these numbers for TAA, and thinking after 5 games he should really have more. Idk if he’s worth 7m for that

[oak furnace]

Jackson for 6/7 then Solanke from 8

[fleet oracle]

Are you on wc6 Niko?

[lavish parcel]

wood

[cerulean cape]

I'm currently on wood and dcl

[oak furnace]

Yeh of course

My team is dead

[cerulean cape]

It's 4.0m def + havertz vs gabriel + dcl

[oak furnace]

If I didn't have wildcard I'd do an ayy and take -16

[lavish parcel]

I am definitely on a -4

[cerulean cape]

Not relevant cos you'd play differently without wc

[cerulean cape]

I'm on a -4 atm

With gabriel/dcl version

[lavish parcel]

mixed feelings on kai

[oak furnace]

Yeh I would

[fleet oracle]

Konate ass yesterday was so lucky. Just a proper hit and hope.
Although in saying that, I think choosing him over Taa could be worth it to save 2m

[lone glade]

i was a few mins ago

but i downgraded robinson to a 4.0

[oak furnace]

I'm potentially getting both

We've only conceded 1 goal

[fleet oracle]

Yeah, but we also conceded within 3 mins yesterday with a goal that was ruled offside, but I was there right on the line, and in real time it looked onside

We got saved by a lucky call

[cerulean cape]

Wc should get forest/someone rotation if 4.5m def

[cerulean cape]

Good next 3, not happy to own after

Maybe gw10 switch to cunha

[lavish parcel]

liverpool took their foot off the gas in the second half, but that’s not really a bad thing

[cerulean cape]

The main issue with kai is he's awful as a cm

[lavish parcel]

just wish mo got more

[latent depot]

Forest/Brentford rotation works for a while. It's an upgrade on Ipswich/Brentford basically

[cerulean cape]

The issue isn't just the cm part

[lavish parcel]

one haaland goal and we’re toast

[oak furnace]

Yeh but then you have to use 2 transfers to get to a different third Arsenal player

I'm locked on double defence and saka

[latent depot]

Anyway, Mykolenko 4.3 is also fine with Everton first choice defence imminent

[cerulean cape]

That too, gabriel route means perma 3 arsenal (2 if sell saka to palmer etc)

[lavish parcel]

raya was (and continues to be) the play

[cerulean cape]

I agree with this thinking

I'm dying on this non raya train but still early days

[slim bane]

Looks as long as mine

[oak furnace]

I own Raya now

[latent depot]

Honestly perma Gabriel is good now that I realised Havertz isn't necessary GW12 with Hjolund GW11 or Jackson GW12

[cerulean cape]

If he gets 8-10 in soton and Leicester then I'd change my mind

[fleet oracle]

I brought raya in on wc for the PR, but undecided if I want to keep him

[lone glade]

im gonna try and have 1 decent defender on the bench

im gonna dump porro

[cerulean cape]

No like solanke?

[lone glade]

aina IN

[cerulean cape]

There's a world I buy solanke gw8

If no bruno

[slim bane]

Is Arsenal game really a good indicator tho

[oak furnace]

Hojland could also be a good pick

[cerulean cape]

Actually not with dcl/wood but if havertz route

[oak furnace]

It's an indicator for the first 11

[latent depot]

Indicator of minutes. If Lewis plays again, he's in

[cerulean cape]

Hojlund us shit, zero chance i get there

[oak furnace]

I like Jackson 6/7 then Solanke in 8

[cerulean cape]

Lewis just isn't an option without leaks imo

[oak furnace]

Do United look ok defensively?

[cerulean cape]

CL was nice tho

Lewis played with rodri

[oak furnace]

I think Solanke could cook

[latent depot]

Hojlund punt GW11-13 is fine tho

[oak furnace]

Everyone depends on city I guess

Someone on the naughty list

[oak furnace]

dCl

[slim bane]

Santa Claus giving out presents

[cerulean cape]

Dcl cap almost as bad not doing isak to watkins gw4

[latent depot]

Nothing against him, but spurs lack a long stretch of fix where I'd want to start him every GW. I'm ok with benching Porro every now and then. Spurs top 6 attack, but don't see a strong reason to go there with attractive budget guys who have amazing fix or Jackson at a better attack

[cerulean cape]

Is 8-13 not good enough for you

Minus city

4 home games in 5

[latent depot]

Clearly not, cos I can bench Porro for City

[cerulean cape]

Fairs

I like them alot

I'm overly biased on home

[latent depot]

I don't mind him, would never talk anyone out of Solanke

I'm just a sucker for fixtures

[oak furnace]

[latent depot]

This is a fair bias, Spurs are shite away

[cerulean cape]

Me too

We just differ slightly on what we class as good fixtures

But our thinking is most aligned I'm this thread

In

[oak furnace]

Who is my thinking aligned to

[cerulean cape]

Look for fixture stretched + on/off at the correct time

[cerulean cape]

Ayy, both fucking sub 90 IQ

[oak furnace]

Given I have so many transfers I'm gonna attack fixtures more

[cerulean cape]

I would throw smooth fpl iq there too

Smooth is a genius irl

[violet temple]

What we talkin about these moves jazzy👀

[cerulean cape]

The fuck is this

Use a planner

[violet temple]

That's all for this week tho

[cerulean cape]

Can't decide if they're good tho if rest of team is vad

Bad

[violet temple]

Okay gimme a minute

[cerulean cape]

Need full info to judge

[latent depot]

The route to Solanke would be Jackson GW6-7, then Solanke to Jackson GW12 I guess, I don't mind this, will look into it if Foden isn't an option. DCL to Larsen GW11 looks so clean tho

[cerulean cape]

Issue with dcl and wood for me

Forest with 4 goals

Everton 5

Dead teams

[latent depot]

But those fixtures

[oak furnace]

If I do this my defence is fully set and forget and I can use my transfers to attack attacking fixtures

[latent depot]

But yes agreed DCL is shite

[violet temple]

0.5m itb will do mateta to solanke gw 7

[oak furnace]

Is that a crazy move

[latent depot]

If Lewis is legit, then I can afford DCL to Jackson on WC6

[oak furnace]

True

[latent depot]

Pinnock not falling and now slowly rising is some bullshit

[oak furnace]

Fuck this is sad

[violet temple]

Is this comparable to wc teams?

I can get luiz diaz > bowen

[oak furnace]

Get Diaz ye

[cerulean cape]

Henderson/esr/mateta vs a flekken or porro/semenyo/dcl or watkins

[lone glade]

feel like semenyo is gonna be like rogers

[cerulean cape]

It's fine

[violet temple]

what

Is that the only differences?

[cerulean cape]

Your sub par players vs a template wc

Yes imo

[violet temple]

Then I'm chillin we move

[cerulean cape]

But

You're sub par for 6+ gws

Assuming for wc12

[violet temple]

Thing throwing me off semenyo is I'll have to transfer him out 8 anyways

[cerulean cape]

That's my issue

No Semenyo is fine

Cos Rogers exist

They will the same role imo

Full

Fill

[violet temple]

I can still get dcl over wood but just prefer wood I think

[cerulean cape]

I agree there

[violet temple]

but in my team who are ppl getting porro for

Are they getting raya and running porro?

[slim bane]

TAA gab porro

4.5 or raya at the back

[violet temple]

Yeah okay

I like my team for now will go ahead with those moves

Who do u guys prefer

Luis diaz or bowen

[cerulean cape]

Diaz

Maybe 1 benching gw8

Rest are fine

There's a world I bench him gw9 vs arsenal for rogers

But he's doing too well atm

[violet temple]

Ffs I did not lock in yesterday

So missed price rises

Another price rise and I can't afford that

[cerulean cape]

Did you mean to

[violet temple]

no I had jota to mbeumo locked from last week

Did not check who all are gonna rise

[cerulean cape]

I did salah to mbeumo only so far

[latent depot]

[slim bane]

Raya gvar Semenyo dcl Vardy v
flek 4.0 Jota Diaz havertz

[cedar hull]

Vardy

[slim bane]

He’s still got it

[cedar hull]

I love vardy but I just don't think he's the play

[slim bane]

He’s the 8th attacker rotating with rogers in that team

Not a bad idea

[cedar hull]

Yeah I get it

Best of some bad options

Id love to get ndiaye if DCL wasn't an option

[earnest torrent]

Gvardiol?

I don't think he's worth for his price

[cedar hull]

Most nailed city defender with attacking potential

[oak furnace]

How much and what position?

[oak furnace]

Also already had his rest

[lavish parcel]

ndiaye is a fwd

5.5 methinks

[little delta]

west ham looked horrible v chelsea

[cerulean cape]

sanchez 7 saves tho?

can't be that bad (attack)

[oak furnace]

Fuck that's clear of DCL then
I hate DCL as a person

Cunt of a player

[lavish parcel]

didn’t see the match but the mood in rant was not great

ndiaye seems a bright spark but not really the fpl type

idk why they made him a fwd though

[kind egret]

Maza got an honest 6 points

nothing to complain

[cedar hull]

Id choose ndiaye over DCL if it weren't for pens

[cerulean cape]

Wouldn't go there myself

[fleet oracle]

What are you using to create that?

[cedar hull]

Excel

[latent depot]

I don't like it either, but he's playing 3 games for me GW6-10, then replaced with Strand Larsen. It's quite impressive how well Rogers rotates with Vardy/Larsen GW6-17

Home vs Bournemouth, away vs Soton/Ipswich

[oak furnace]

Foden Vardy vs Diaz Jackson

Actually I can't afford gvardiol

[cedar hull]

Yeah I understand rotation wise, just don't think he's nailed and dislike attackers from promoted teams

[fleet oracle]

@slim bane KDB potentially dropping

[cerulean cape]

don't do this to my man

[latent depot]

Thought he already took him out

[cerulean cape]

anyone know what sinsterra, dbling, tielemans, ndidi, mario lemina got in common?

[slim bane]

9.6 to 9.5 doesn’t change anything

[broken patio]

Threw together a WC in 5 mins, no idea what the meta is

[silent jasper]

Might change a few players

Ait Nouri to Aina
VDB to Greaves
Not sure about Lewis

Tross to Saka
Watkins to Wood/DCL

[broken patio]

Thanks

Cooking

0.0 itb

[silent jasper]

I saw some people have Myko as their 4th def, I think its not bad if Everton can get their defenders back from injury.

[broken patio]

Nah fuck that

[little delta]

TV?

[broken patio]

Ait nouri to the moon

[broken patio]

I do not know ngl

[silent jasper]

I was thinking about Colwill for 4.5M def instead of Konsa..I have Aina in it too

[fleet oracle]

Chelsea def? No way

Hard avoid

[cerulean cape]

konsa conceded vs everton and wolves (as predicted)

easy avoid on wc

fuck off konsa was playing rb??/

[cedar hull]

Yeah

[oak furnace]

omg beef ur alive

[lone glade]

we have the same team..

[zenith jolt]

Wow fplcord template is strong

[slim bane]

wtf fplcord united caught up with me

Jfc wood

[zenith jolt]

Wood wc6 hmmm

Clear of dcl with pens maybe

[cerulean cape]

getting both for sure then

[oak furnace]

fuck chris wood

wish i started him

[zenith jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/solanke-bournemouth-dominic-solanke-afc-bournemouth-gif-22769458

[oak furnace]

i legit dont know who i want in attack

well forwards

[latent depot]

Don't you mean that you took enough hits to sandbag behind FPLcord?

[slim bane]

[oak furnace]

This is actually so hard

Idk why I didn't trust forest

People said they were overhyped

[lavish parcel]

wood was because they could have gotten a new striker

defense was because their keepers had a record of dropping clangers

there was some reasonable doubt

[oak furnace]

Yeh but that's such a bad reason

[cedar hull]

Wood to jp was

[fleet oracle]

Wood call was impressive

[zenith jolt]

Don’t let niko get a hold of this

Should’ve known he was injured

[dark oyster]

would yarmoliuk go in for joao pedro ?

[lavish parcel]

some of my drafts had van hecke

sigh

[slim bane]

You win some you lose some

[cedar hull]

[slim bane]

Unless you’re me then you lose 36 points on transfers

[cedar hull]

Can mitoma return please

He's so due

[lavish parcel]

figured he wouldn't be good long term with the fix turning

[cerulean cape]

WELBECKKK

price rise

and points

[oak furnace]

why did i choose jp over welbeck?

[cerulean cape]

solanke to welbeck gw2 niko

[oak furnace]

yeh]

i went to fucking muniz

huge L

[zenith jolt]

Yeah shouldve gone welbeck

[oak furnace]

anyone but muniz

[lavish parcel]

should've gone for a player with man utd and arsenal next

[oak furnace]

wood or welbeck

[cedar hull]

[prime plinth]

4-5-1

Tbf Defenders aren't any better

[oak furnace]

352 would've been the play

[prime plinth]

That was my starting team

[oak furnace]

Anyway fuck it stop worrying

[prime plinth]

Right idea. Failed on the picks within the structure

[oak furnace]

Wood or DCL?

[lavish parcel]

wood

easy

[prime plinth]

Doesn't help when Isak is as bad as he was. I wanted Watkins for gw3 so bad. Should've just started with him

[oak furnace]

I should've just traded in Watkins

[prime plinth]

Who scored for Forest

[oak furnace]

I got Pedro gw4 bte

Not gw2

So Welbeck vs JP was gw4

And I chose the worst one

[prime plinth]

Forest been super solid this season so far. Had them improving tbf. Defensively solid numbers wise already under Nuno. Seem to have added players that prevent the same set piece issues

[oak furnace]

Yeh

[cerulean cape]

wood and dcl

[oak furnace]

Don't really want both

I want one of Jackson and Solanke

Haaland 7.5 6.0

Should've been the formula

From the start

Haaland Jackson Wood

Could've legit started it

[cerulean cape]

ye a

[oak furnace]

Sucks so much

[cerulean cape]

esr, diaz, salah, saka too

[oak furnace]

Gabriel Trent Raya as well

Anyway fuck it it's too late to worry about that

Just have to wildcard right

[frank mulch]

Moreno subbed at HT @lavish parcel rip

[lavish parcel]

nver had him

last time I had a forest defender, bad things happened

if you know

[slim bane]

It’s insane that I’ve had 4 players out this week

[cerulean cape]

foden and lewis not options then

no kdb yet foden still benched

did foden shag peps daughter again

[oak furnace]

Calafiori starting

This Arsenal team is wild

Walker on wildcard?

I want city defender instead of porro

[latent depot]

I guess I'm going with Diaz over Foden

[cedar hull]

Jackson to solanke gw8?

[zenith jolt]

Yes

If you have lots of fts

[oak furnace]

Can I just risk akanji or Walker as my city defender?

[lavish parcel]

just don't get any

[oak furnace]

I can afford this

[slim bane]

On the week I should’ve taken a hit

I didn’t take the hit

Fml

[oak furnace]

Rogers would be 5.1

[oak furnace]

Why what would you have done?

[slim bane]

Lewis and Jota out

[oak furnace]

Bruh as if you didn't

[cerulean cape]

0 chance you are going walker on wc

waste of time

[oak furnace]

Why

I can afford akanji but I have to go DCL over woof

[cerulean cape]

you're scared about a gk getting injured/dropped

that's why you are not getting walker

[oak furnace]

I'm copping another donut

[slim bane]

The leak was Jota starting no?

[oak furnace]

I don't care about this shitty game anymore

[oak furnace]

I didn't see any leak

I've been fucked since gw3

Made the worst transfers/non transfers

[cedar hull]

[oak furnace]

It's a lie and you know it

I just don't know what to do anymore

[slim bane]

Yea it was leaked

But then the later leak post lock was slot made a late change

[cerulean cape]

the leak was shit tho

?

[cerulean cape]

gw2*

[oak furnace]

I'm saying after gw3

I was doing insane until then

After that I fucked up

Got Joao Pedro instead of welbeck

And didn't trade Isak to watkins

If I did those 2 moves

I would be up 25 points

I'm making up numbers

But at least 20

From 2 moves

[cedar hull]

[oak furnace]

It just hurts

Knowing I fucked up my start

[cedar hull]

Niko discovers variance

[oak furnace]

From a bad decision

It's not variance

It's a bad decision

[oak furnace]

Pedro over Welbeck wouldn't have happened if I waited for more information

[slim bane]

Rip

[cedar hull]

It's gone up a lot since I last checked

[oak furnace]

And isak to Watkins would've happened if I didn't second guess myself

Anyway it's not the end of the world

[oak furnace]

No one ever understands what I get angry about

I'm not angry that I didn't get everything perfect

I'm angry that I made the worst possible moves from my starting team to gw5 that netted me the least possible points

[slim bane]

Technically not the worst

[lavish parcel]

I'm still in 2m

[slim bane]

Could’ve brought in all the fodders

[lavish parcel]

it could be worse

[oak furnace]

It couldn't be worse based on my starting team

This is what you don't understand

I don't care about what others teams are

I care about what my starting team was

And what transfers I've made since

[cerulean cape]

skill issue

[oak furnace]

Sure if that's what you want to call it

I still started a better team than all of you

[cerulean cape]

we're unlocking niko's evil arc

[oak furnace]

I'm gonna cook once I can make better transfers

Ok wood not an option now that they have no Gibbs white and Nuno next week

Jackson will cook this Brighton next week

[cerulean cape]

wood not an option because he's misses MGW for 1 week

[cedar hull]

Woods gonna score next week and Niko gonna complain about another wrong decision

[oak furnace]

I just don't want to pick wood

I hate him

[lavish parcel]

probably still gonna choose him

[oak furnace]

I just hate Chris Wood as a player

He only scored cos forest won a pen

He did nothing else

Pens should be worth 2 points instead of 4

2 points for winning the pen
2 points for scoring the pen

[lavish parcel]

what a chaotic game

[oak furnace]

Pedro 1 point in 2 weeks

What a transfer for Muniz

[slim bane]

Only good thing about jp

Cockblocked other benches

[oak furnace]

Ye true

Still a disaster

I've never had a stretch as bad as these last 2 weeks

Now everyone will have the same team next week who wildcarded

[slim bane]

Good

Time to catch up

[cerulean cape]

that was shit in the end

8 points from verbruggen, jp and welbeck

[oak furnace]

I'm down to 180k

[cerulean cape]

you said you didn't care about other teams

[oak furnace]

Not having haaland Captain will drop me outside top 200k

[oak furnace]

I only care about them when I need to beat them

[little delta]

1.3m not bad halved rank so far

[oak furnace]

Can't beat them when they have the same team as you

[little delta]

But still haaland to go which is bad for me

Hope to stay 1.5m or something

[cerulean cape]

small green in wc4

[silent jasper]

he gave me 1 extra point can't complain

[zenith jolt]

Nice

[cerulean cape]

unless haaland/arsenal go big

[lavish parcel]

fplgameweek suggesting I gain from haaland, that's not true lol

[little delta]

@zenith jolt Rank?

[silent jasper]

lucky mofo

[slim bane]

I exhausted my whole bench this week

[lavish parcel]

if haaland goes off, they will catch up

[zenith jolt]

500k

[slim bane]

You probably see either around you or the league EO

[silent jasper]

same man
If JP didnt play I played 10 only

[little delta]

Pretty good

[zenith jolt]

Yeah its alr

Only haaland left tho

[little delta]

Same yeah i’m 1.3m

[slim bane]

Gabriel havertz left

[little delta]

But I hope WC6 can help me get into the 6 digits

[zenith jolt]

I could take a city cs

But ars cs no thank you

[cerulean cape]

this game is gonna fuck me

gw4 should have been this as well but liverpool stunk out

[slim bane]

No way

It’s a snoozefest

[lavish parcel]

still a huge gain

[cerulean cape]

bruh 0-0 is awful

[slim bane]

Why

[cerulean cape]

raya 10 pointer

[slim bane]

Lewis is benched

Oh right

[cerulean cape]

saliba 8

[slim bane]

[lavish parcel]

😋

[cerulean cape]

i think if haaland scores i'm happy

just to bust cs

-3.6 points vs arsenal defensive eo

[silent jasper]

what is Haaland's EO?

[cerulean cape]

with a -4 in gw6 too, i reckon i'm back to 750k where i satrted gw4 lol

140% ish

depends on rank

[silent jasper]

137.1% because I am bad
But you capped him Jazzy?

[cerulean cape]

no

-3.6 points is an indication

if he scores

[silent jasper]

hope he doesn't score or gets an assist then
If not he will destroy your rank

[cerulean cape]

9 x 0.4 is 3.6

again busting arsenal cs is more impoant

13 pointer is -5.2

[silent jasper]

City CS might have high EO due to Gvardiol as well

[oak furnace]

Need a city 1-0 from a random player

Rodri goal

Maybe we get 1-1

Calafiori goal

[silent jasper]

your wish came true

[lavish parcel]

fml

[cerulean cape]

No more now

[silent jasper]

need City cs wiped now

[slim bane]

[cerulean cape]

Fuck off

[silent jasper]

Surely we need Gabriel now
(Crying because I own Saliba )

[earnest torrent]

Why do we own Saliba

[cerulean cape]

Guess I'm committed then lol

Saliba gabriel double up

[earnest torrent]

Rather Raya

[lavish parcel]

this is nuts

[lavish parcel]

one less threat to worry about

[prime plinth]

Was a decent gw till Haaland and Gabriel scored

Might just be about average now

At least Saka got something

[warped wharf]

i like saliba gabriel as well cause i can switch saliba to porro

[earnest torrent]

Yeah I'm convinced on Raya over Saliba

[cedar hull]

Fodeez on

Anyone looking to get him on wc

[zenith jolt]

Potentially

Mins scary

Jackson > dcl diaz > foden gw8 if needs be

[dark oyster]

raya final points?

[lavish parcel]

rant is a fucking disaster

I have never seen this many kekwpoints for a draw

[slim bane]

Keep them coming

It’s cos we’re relevant again

[lone glade]

get in WC6 time

[lavish parcel]

the goalposts keep moving

[dark oyster]

did raya get final 4 points

[lavish parcel]

decent week

just glad to be on another green

haaland return sucks though

[cerulean cape]

Need a -4

Puts me to 830k

I lost rank since wc4

[slim bane]

Heyyyyy

Guess who else

Is 830k

Rank ID buddies and rank buddies now

Oh wait

Gw rank

Ffs

What are the odds tho

[lavish parcel]

still below 2m 😭 but the comeback is ON

[lone glade]

im still 3m dw

[cerulean cape]

No

830k after -4

Start of gw6

You're 830k now but will be 1.5m after your -8

[slim bane]

I’m taking a -4 too?

Warra team

Jk haven’t firmed it up yet

[cerulean cape]

I'm committed with mine

[lavish parcel]

think I'm choosing wood atm

[lavish parcel]

there are like 5 or 6 fwds I can choose from

[slim bane]

I defo have to get Lewis out

[lavish parcel]

konsa saved the week

got lucky

but wc4 still a positive

hmmm it could be worse

[lone glade]

rogers got 10 points coldd

move up to 3bps

[lavish parcel]

???

[lavish parcel]

WHAT

[lone glade]

sigma rogers

[lavish parcel]

bruh he actually did

[lone glade]

esr dropped a bp

went from 9 to 8

[lavish parcel]

lmao

[slim bane]

Siuuuu

[lavish parcel]

boomo on 1 now

these bps recalculations are brutal

[earnest torrent]

mf so my overall points didn't change

+1 -1

[dark oyster]

who is going to rise, im going to wildcard this week and want the extra $bank

[fleet oracle]

The difference between chosing Gabriel over Saliba these past 2 weeks is insane

[slim bane]

At least this one the better choice was rewarded

Fuck casuals

[dark oyster]

do I get these players on my team so when they rise I have more bank? (im wildcarding)

[slim bane]

They’ve already risen

If you didn’t have them when they rose it’s too late

[lone glade]

so whos looking to rise tomorrow

[dark oyster]

where can I see who is going to rise?

[slim bane]

Barnes and gab

Fplstatistics.com

[dark oyster]

thanks

[fleet oracle]

Not bad

[dark oyster]

wow thats horrible

[fleet oracle]

I know, capping trent instead of diaz or jackson cost me a 100+ gw

[dark oyster]

im joking thats amazing, i had my worse week with 58 points

[fleet oracle]

[slim bane]

wtf

Gw rank 16k

Goated

[dark oyster]

choosing jota over dias last second cost me soo much

[fleet oracle]

Chose both

[dark oyster]

it was a last minute transfer to add double liverpool

trent and jota/luis diaz

choose the wrong one 😭

[fleet oracle]

My decision to go solanke instead of havertz gw1 have proven to be hugely beneficial

[slim bane]

Should’ve tripled

[slim bane]

Unlucky for havertz

[lavish parcel]

I got the funny number points

assuming this bps change is legit

[lone glade]

69?

[dark oyster]

only had 2 transfers

but i should have

[slim bane]

Oh rip

[slim bane]

I was on that before bps change

Fplgw not showing the changes

[lavish parcel]

yeah probably because it takes what's added as bonus in the game

and not the bps endpoint

[latent depot]

was Saka sub tactical?

[fleet oracle]

Not really, in going for solanke, his gw1 injury prompted me to transfer him straight away, and I ended up on Jackson, who has 6 returns and 6 bps in 4 gws. Thats a huge chunk of points I have that I simply wouldn’t have even considered had it not been for solanke injury @slim bane

[dark oyster]

100% imo

[slim bane]

oh

that way

lol

[fleet oracle]

Just Stewart vs Ndiaye?

Oh

Team gone

[fleet oracle]

Yeah. Huge swing in terms of everything

[dark oyster]

mbuemo and stewart or smith rowe and dcl

[fleet oracle]

Mbuemo clears all three imo

[dark oyster]

his fixtures are the worst tho (apart from smith rowe)

[fleet oracle]

ESR and dcl will be inconsistent at best, but that’s what you get from a 5.5/6.5m asset.
Mbuemo is nailed OOP talisman for a solid midtable side

[fleet oracle]

Over what time period?

[dark oyster]

mbuemos next 3 are not great

then its gets better

[dark oyster]

I could do this, and add barnes for the price increase then transfer him out

its robo for trent
stewart for dcl
and keane for feas

[fleet oracle]

When you wildcard this early, yes you want to attack short term fix, but it’s also important to plan for mid-long term too

Mbuemo over the next 12

Set and forget easy, probably gets about 10 returns over that period, could even get more

[dark oyster]

dcl has good fixtures until gw 14, haaland is haaland and watkins has kinda bad fixtures, saka is a transfer after 3 gw's

actually I don't love luis diaz

[lavish parcel]

wood is the way

into one of the wolves strikers later

[dark oyster]

I could do this and either wood or dcl

[fleet oracle]

I could be tempted by Ran

[cedar hull]

Just seen this, pretty funny

[slim bane]

Uh no

Saka is a hold

[latent depot]

who's Vardy's competition?

[broken patio]

Age

[lavish parcel]

energy drink regulators

[latent depot]

can't believe I'm considering Bruno

[slim bane]

Same

[lavish parcel]

how was your gw @broken patio

[latent depot]

GW6-13 is basically a run of completely green attacking fixtures

[lavish parcel]

I'm waiting for gw8 for man utd assets

would love garnacho to be a pick, seems more fun than bruno, but no chance he'll have enough minutes

[slim bane]

My depleted side did well

71 after bonus recalc

Was down 17M budget

My fpl team feels like Arsenal

Thrown a shit hand but we got there in the end

Albeit disappointing captaincy

My bad

TV gonna tank tmr

But all on single risers

Alls gucci

[broken patio]

Shit, 62

[lavish parcel]

eh that's not too bad

[broken patio]

64 actually

[thin jasper]

FPL sucks

[broken patio]

It's not bad but my team is just a story of missed opportunities

[thin jasper]

I have two benched players

[broken patio]

ESR to minteh for a hit last week was of course stupid but didn't expect it to backfire this badly

2 ESR returns, 2 minteh blanks

Pedro has been nothing but pain

[thin jasper]

What to do with Jota and Lewis

I probably just deal with Lewis later but Jota has to go

[broken patio]

My 3rd striker slot has been constant pain, solanke then muniz then Pedro, not a return out of any of them

[thin jasper]

Martinelli should be a good pick right?

[broken patio]

And I had wood in every single draft preseason until solanke moved to spurs and I got fomo

The jota Diaz situation fucking sucks

[lavish parcel]

I'm glad mitoma had an assist but he has been soooo frustrating

[broken patio]

Such a weak assist lol

[lavish parcel]

just watching him, seeing him play well,

[broken patio]

Won a fk which welbz scored a worldie from

[lavish parcel]

and no end product

[thin jasper]

It’s so fucked that Diaz completely destroyed Jota in returns

Maybe I’m just bad at fpl

[broken patio]

Welbeck is actually him

[broken patio]

Ikr

Jota to Diaz for a hit in any of the past like 4 weeks would've payed off and then some

Diaz is actually him though

Watched the Liverpool highlights and it's all diaz

[lavish parcel]

what sucks even more is

[thin jasper]

Maybe I should watch ball instead of watching numbers

[lavish parcel]

buying him is not even a good idea rn

wc6 will have him

[thin jasper]

Jota to Martinelli seems pretty obvious to me

Or maybe Mbeumo is better pick

[broken patio]

I'm wildcarding this week

[thin jasper]

But I don’t want Mbeumo

[broken patio]

I probably don't really need to but I just want to

[lavish parcel]

do you still have 3 fulham

[thin jasper]

I wildcarded two weeks ago and I have picked three players that haven’t played

[broken patio]

Wanna fix the likes of barco, nedeljkovic erc

[lavish parcel]

could always get diaz but

-8

[thin jasper]

I so want to do Salah to Saka but selling Salah before Wolves is too scary

[lavish parcel]

it's an obvious transfer

[thin jasper]

Might just get Martinelli and hope for the best

I don’t know if I want Mbeumo

[lavish parcel]

you definitely do not want mart

[frank mulch]

Saka Palmer Bruno Foden Mbeumo on WC6

With no Salah/Haaland

Is meta

[lavish parcel]

palmer ... nah

2 decent fix but then

[frank mulch]

Then you get Son

[thin jasper]

This probably backfires so hard but I wanna do it

Is Timber worth the 0.5 save or should I just spend the extra on Saliba or Gabriel

He’s played 90 pretty much every game

Actually just two games but whatever

[lavish parcel]

hard to tell at this point

I think there's a world where I buy bruno in gw8

which scares me

[broken patio]

Surely not

Don't get blinded by the fix semi

[latent depot]

honestly planning for this

[broken patio]

Adama traore has had 3 times as many returns so far than Bruno

[frank mulch]

Palmer to Bruno GW8?

Son is nice from GW8 onwards as well

[latent depot]

we all know what he's capable of tho, this was his run in:

[latent depot]

not interested in LW Son. bro has Man City in that Spurs fix run

Man United GW8-13 is as good as it gets for attacking FDR; 4/6 home games, 2 promoted teams

GW14 is a nice exit point to Bowen or Liverpool mid

[frank mulch]

Myko is 4.4m

[latent depot]

close to 4.3, that's an ideal WC6

VIrginia also still 4.0

[frank mulch]

His tsb is 4.3%

[broken patio]

We all know what he's capable of, yet we haven't seen it consistently in years

[latent depot]

Mykolenko will just be a 4.0 if no price drops

[latent depot]

that's his last 10 games of 23/24 season, so it's not too long ago...

I'm willing to punt on an asset with his GW8-13 fix run and some history of greatness

Hojlund hopefully up to speed at that point too

[frank mulch]

I’m seeing no Foden

[latent depot]

fwiw I can afford this once Gvardiol falls to 5.9 with a 4.0 over Myko. to get Myko, I need him to drop to 4.3, Virginia 3.9, double rises for both Jackson and Diaz

Foden didn't start today despite no KDB, so I can't go there at all

Greaves can always be a 3.9 as well, he's mostly there to hopefully farm 0.1 eventually

Semenyo can be Tavernier if necessary for a 0.1 saving, they're very close and Tav is arguably better with way more chance creation and fewer yellow cards

but I'd like Semenyo for the 2wk punt cos he might rise to 5.8 and gain 0.1 budget

Tavernier is consistently the furthest forward player

[oak furnace]

160k rank into a wildcard

Why was saka subbed at ht

[acoustic edge]

tactical

[oak furnace]

Should I keep Smith Rowe on wildcard over Semenyo?

[acoustic edge]

martinelli is quicker

[acoustic edge]

no

[oak furnace]

Why not he's clearly one of the best picks this year

Might rise again

[cedar hull]

"one of the best picks "

[oak furnace]

How is he not

Only bad game is city

[cedar hull]

Semenyo is better than him in every way

Same with tav

[oak furnace]

He's scored 7 points more than Semenyo

[cedar hull]

Niko how many times do i have to explain that the outcome isnt everything

Be proactive, not reactive

[oak furnace]

How can you be reactive to something that hasn't happened

[acoustic edge]

what

[oak furnace]

Outcome is literally everything in FPL it's the only way to score points

[acoustic edge]

yes but u don’t score points based on previous points

[frank mulch]

😭

[prime plinth]

Bruno... Never again. That is a scam

[zenith jolt]

Amadou Onana clear of semenyo as an option imo

More pts than him first 5

• cheaper

[cerulean cape]

wait just realised something

i can keep jp over getting dcl for a -4

[zenith jolt]

guys

trossard doesnt miss any prem games

how stupid is that

[oak furnace]

Thoughts on triple Arsenal defence and Palmer?

[cedar hull]

Palmer average so far without pens

And triple seems excessive, but if theres a team to triple on its arsenal ig

[oak furnace]

how is palmer average?

palmer allows getting son in gw8

[little delta]

palmer is not average lol

[oak furnace]

hes literally second highest scoring mid

[little delta]

yeah he is way better than average

[cedar hull]

Do you look at anything besides points niko

He has 0.19 xg90

Compared to 0.61 last season

Massive overperformance right now that isnt sustainable

[oak furnace]

stats dont matter if u score

you dont need 10 chances a game

[cedar hull]

One dimensional thinking

[oak furnace]

just score your one chance

id rather a guy who gets 1 chances every game and scores it

[little delta]

Palmer hasn’t even got a pen yet

[oak furnace]

than a guy who gets 10 chances and scores 1 every second game

[cedar hull]

Thats the point

It doesnt matter whether its one chance or 10 if the overall combined value is piss poor

[oak furnace]

chelseas next 2 are just really nice

I think im gonna go nico jackson then trade to solanke in gw8

the truth is im really struggling to find a 3rd defender I like

[cedar hull]

Palmer overperformed last year but nothing close to the current overperformance

[little delta]

Gvardiol Saliba Porro

[oak furnace]

if im getting a 4.5 mid is it just winks or is dibling worth the risk

[little delta]

Who are ur first 2 defs

TAA Gab?

[oak furnace]

yeh of course

i think im gonna get gvardiol

only guy im missing is semenyo who i wouldve wanted but cant afford cos of gvardiol

this is how i would have to get semenyo

is it dumb to start semenyo then transfer him to rogers meaning i lose out on rogers price rises?

[lavish parcel]

we made it

[oak furnace]

is it dumb to go for this with no rogers? would likely get rogers in gw8 for semenyo

I'd have to downgrade gvardiol to a 5.5 to get rogers over winks idk if its worth

[lavish parcel]

or jackson down

[oak furnace]

I want a Chelsea for these next 2

Not falling for this anti Jackson propaganda

You're the reason I didn't get him in gw2

[cedar hull]

We dont control your fpl team smh

[oak furnace]

Stdu

You influence my thoughts

So it's your fault when I make bad decision

And my great choices when I make good ones

Obviously I'm joking but I hate when people say they don't control my team like they think they do

I know I control my own team

[little delta]

Niko u made like 200 drafts

[oak furnace]

yeh i just need to choose the right one

[little delta]

Do we think Raya is a must on wc then

[oak furnace]

I have him

[little delta]

I missed the price change so annoying

I couldn’t afford I had Salah

[oak furnace]

im trying to work out if i can go without rogers

i think i can

[little delta]

How many drafts have u had Raya

[oak furnace]

cos im not gonna field him

ive had raya in all except like 1 where i went for flekken verbruggen

but i have no faith in any defence outside of big 3

so im just going for big 3 defence

and then will rotate attackers

using the rest of my bank

[little delta]

Fairs i’ll have to buy Raya at 5.6 tho

it’s not that deep tho

0.1m

@oak furnace Whats your TV

[oak furnace]

No clue

Says 101.4

It's not that good

im so lost

[little delta]

Why are you lost

[oak furnace]

Cos idk who to pick

[little delta]

We have a week till deadline

[lavish parcel]

just need to decide which of my 6.5 shitters to bin now

one has meh fixtures, one is just bad

[oak furnace]

how did walker look?

im thinking maybe lewis could be a pick

[cedar hull]

Myko, ait nouri fall

Gabriel rise

Have a feeling gvardiol wont fall at all

Walker has looked shit the past 2 years yet pep still favours him

[oak furnace]

that sucks

i wish lewis was an option

[zenith jolt]

He needs to mannn

Im .2 off my draft

[little delta]

Imo if u wanna gain big rank u need to go atleast a bit different which i might

[oak furnace]

Is gvardiol the pick

I want a city defender

[silent jasper]

I don't think City def is a must have on WC

[slim bane]

No

Your differential is the combination of template players

Womp womp tv down to 101.6

[thin jasper]

@slim bane you captained joao pedro????

retire already

wait how are you half my rank

i must be insanely shit at this game

[lavish parcel]

he viced pedro

jota didn't play

but that's still crazy

[slim bane]

I set a bus team after game was live for gw4

Decided not to make any fts and forgor to change my team at all lol

[thin jasper]

ah ok ok

[thin jasper]

haha

hey you gotta be doing smth right

[slim bane]

I had Jota and kdb not playing

The classic 17M not playing

Diaz and Gabriel saving my ass

[lavish parcel]

you outscored me

by 2

[slim bane]

Rogers TAA also

Bench came in clutch too

8 points off the bench

[slim bane]

Yea but I’m going to be pivoting to 4.0 def rotations

Surely no one’s tried that and failed before

[thin jasper]

yikes

[slim bane]

Why

[earnest torrent]

even so isn't johnson not nailed?

[slim bane]

Who says I’m playing Johnson

It’ll be THB in gw6 and greaves for 7-11

[lavish parcel]

you are not the clown. you are the entire circus.

[earnest torrent]

when you said rotations i assumed you will be playing all 3 at one point

[lavish parcel]

oh god

pls no

[dark oyster]

de bruyne with pep roulette is a big sus imo

[slim bane]

oh?

Ah wait this has 8 attackers lmaoo

Delete delete

[oak furnace]

why are you worried about 8 attackers

most wc6 have 8 attackers

[slim bane]

That’s cos it’s a wc

they need the team to last until gw30
