[slim bane]

Or 20 at least

I have wc in hand I can take more risks

That’s the whole point of saving the wc is to spend that extra bit on the team

over the long run hopefully it pays off

Arguably this team does a bad job of it

But the future moves of kdb downgrade to Bruno or Bowen or someone

And then upgrade Johnson

Then that fixes the team alr

[cerulean cape]

Saving the wc by taking -28

[frank mulch]

Are you saying to try to have dead spots instead of money spread

[slim bane]

Yea

[frank mulch]

Is Quansah considered a dead spot

4.1

[cerulean cape]

Yes

Anyone you never actively play is a dead spot

I'm leaning dcl more than wood now

[frank mulch]

But it’s like a dead dead spot

Faes is better for that

[slim bane]

If you’re on wc you wouldn’t keep quansah

[frank mulch]

I’d buy him

High risk high reward

[cerulean cape]

You don't actively play faes

[slim bane]

High risk no reward

[cerulean cape]

He may come on

[slim bane]

you can buy quansah in after shit happens to konate or VVD

You don’t need to stock the dead weight

[cerulean cape]

That

People would use a ft to buy quansah anyway

[slim bane]

Yes

Absolutely would

[frank mulch]

Might as well just get him then

[cerulean cape]

Whilst Chads would buy gomez

[slim bane]

huh

[frank mulch]

On wc 3rd bench

[slim bane]

that possibility is not an eventuality

and it’s a low possibility too

[cerulean cape]

If you think a potential ft save is better having a perma 4m def that plays then fair

[frank mulch]

It probably isn’t

But like I said it’s high risk

[slim bane]

Looks like analcord has a template front 8

[frank mulch]

Go on

[cerulean cape]

It's not even high risk tbf

Show

[slim bane]

Saka Bruno mbeumo Semenyo/mcneil rogers
Haaland Solanke dcl/wood

[cerulean cape]

Pedro?

[frank mulch]

Yeah standard

[oak furnace]

Bruno over Diaz so classic

[slim bane]

Some with Pedro over dcl/wood

[frank mulch]

Diaz is an awful pick imo

He can’t cover Salah

And won’t continue to

Hope that helps

[slim bane]

He doesn’t need to cover Salah

Salah can’t cover diaz more like

Except for mins

Salah has better xmins

[frank mulch]

👍

[oak furnace]

jota over diaz such an L

[frank mulch]

Does Trent have good vapm @slim bane

[slim bane]

32 points / 5 games = 6.4 PPG

6.4 PPG - 2 app = 4.4 VA

4.4 VA / 7M = .63 VAPM > .4 VAPM

therefore he has good vapm

Caveat is fixture difficulty has been kind to him

[frank mulch]

Would you go for him on WC6?

Value wise

[slim bane]

Yes

[frank mulch]

Interesting

[slim bane]

TAA Gabriel should be locks

The last ones are porro or a mix of 4.5-5M defs

[frank mulch]

Gabriel Saliba Gvardiol

Don’t see the need for Trent personally but who knows

[oak furnace]

trent over saliba and then a different third arsenal

thats likely what ill do

[frank mulch]

Bro just has infinite money

[slim bane]

Saliba doesn’t make sense

When there’s Raya and Gabriel who have more upside

[frank mulch]

Sure

[slim bane]

and Saka Havertz being there too

[frank mulch]

But Saliba to Porro is a move I’d like to do

[cerulean cape]

Taa 1m over gvardiol is clear too

[frank mulch]

I can’t do Raya to Porro

[slim bane]

Many have porro on wc

I think

[cerulean cape]

I'm benching next 2

[oak furnace]

my question is can i get semenyo over rogers then go semenyo to rogers in gw8?

[frank mulch]

Comes back to the thing you were saying about spreading funds

I don’t think starting porro is any good these next 2 gws

You’d bench

[slim bane]

Yea they have porro and a strong bench

[cerulean cape]

Most will play porro

Cos they run raya

I'm running saliba/gab/tta

Taa

[frank mulch]

Ideally you bench porro

But he’s not the worst

[oak furnace]

porro easy to bench if u get pinnock

[cerulean cape]

Not even sure on that

Brentford def not even great

[frank mulch]

I’d just rather start with Double CBs and swap one to porro in like gw8

[cerulean cape]

West ham good attack too

[oak furnace]

west ham looked horrible tho

[cerulean cape]

7 shots on target

[oak furnace]

gvardiol and winks (bench) vs porro and rogers (bench)

which one is better

[slim bane]

You lose the third arsenal tho

If u sell Saliba

[oak furnace]

thats fine

u get it back in gw12

[slim bane]

Second

[slim bane]

At potentially .1 or .2 more

[oak furnace]

why tho

[cerulean cape]

I would start porro over pinnock personally

[slim bane]

We are so up for it

[frank mulch]

Don’t want double def for 9-11 ideally right

[slim bane]

Cos city just lost rodri

They won’t clean as much

[slim bane]

We had one of the best defences

[cerulean cape]

There's a case of just playing both no matter the fixture

That actually might be the right play

[oak furnace]

so do i just run this?

[cerulean cape]

Yes

[slim bane]

Nice to see I was right preseason

[frank mulch]

That bench is awful

Get a 4.5 def

[slim bane]

No team would keep more cs than Arsenal other than pool in the first 5

[oak furnace]

why

[frank mulch]

Wdym why

[cerulean cape]

Why does he keep a 4.5m

[oak furnace]

why would i need a 4.5 defender

[slim bane]

That’s good

[cerulean cape]

His back 3 are nailed

[oak furnace]

its literally a waste

im never gonna bench any of the 3

[cerulean cape]

You use ft if injured on them

[oak furnace]

i have 3 fts into gw7

[slim bane]

Stubbornness at not getting Jackson will fuck me i think

[cerulean cape]

Only issue is arguably benching rogers

I'm heavily biased

[frank mulch]

Porro city gw13 👍

[cerulean cape]

Is man utd still good for an attacker

[cerulean cape]

You play the 4.0m for 1 gw

[slim bane]

Against nfo

[oak furnace]

gw8 i do this

[slim bane]

Woooooood

[frank mulch]

Porro keeps 0 cs in 6/7 as well

[cerulean cape]

Rawand wants to spend 0.5m to play them 1 game

[oak furnace]

i could also get a different defender for 6 and 7 and then transfer to porro?

[slim bane]

When the 4.5s ain’t cleaning either

[frank mulch]

No I wouldn’t start porro always

[cerulean cape]

That's a different discussion point

[oak furnace]

wait nah porro went up 0.1 the fucker

[cerulean cape]

No starting with porro and having a 4.5m def on bench is a different point completely

[frank mulch]

I would get a 4.5 defender to bench porro

[oak furnace]

id have to drop rogers

wait actually no i can afford to get konate over porro for 6 and 7

[frank mulch]

Konate 😭

[oak furnace]

wait lemme see

Then gw8 I go konate Jackson to porro Solanke

That's perfect

[cerulean cape]

Nice

[frank mulch]

My biggest dilemma is Solanke

If I want him or not

[cerulean cape]

Does team anal think he's on pens

[frank mulch]

Who knows

Prob like 60/40 son

[cerulean cape]

It's 100% son for me

[oak furnace]

is solanke a better pick than jackson?

[cerulean cape]

Yes

[frank mulch]

You’re doing the move in GW8

[cerulean cape]

Gw6-11

[oak furnace]

i prefer jackson the next 2

[cerulean cape]

Don't love the move to swap

[slim bane]

transfer is 4 points

i would know

[frank mulch]

Do you think it’s a good swap?

[cerulean cape]

Brighton and forest are solid teams

[slim bane]

does jackson outscore solanke by 4 points in 2 weeks

[oak furnace]

theres a reason i held my free transfers

[cerulean cape]

Niko with 3fts is fine I think

If 2fts in gw8 then no

[frank mulch]

Probably

[oak furnace]

heres the big question does trent or diaz get transferred out in gw9?

[frank mulch]

Why would you go with Trent if you’re going to sell

[cerulean cape]

Taa maybe goes for me gw8 to fund bruno

[cerulean cape]

????

You're selling Jackson in 2gws

[frank mulch]

Trent is a season hold

[oak furnace]

i can use semenyo to fund diaz to bruno

[cerulean cape]

Fairs I'm trying to bruno, Diaz, mbeumo, saka

[slim bane]

For me it’s kdb

what a bad move it was chasing the 9.5 city mids

[frank mulch]

Anyone like Savinho

[oak furnace]

Here's a tough week with my current team
Idk what I'd do
Maybe sell Semenyo?

[slim bane]

Tf isn’t his best fixtures ahead of that run

[cerulean cape]

You mean chasing a rotated city for 0.5m vs a nailed arsenal/spurs/Chelsea talisman

No one predicted that

[slim bane]

I don’t have infinite funds

[oak furnace]

yeh he has 8-10 tough

[slim bane]

And kdb scored well in gw2

And nearly scored gw3

[cerulean cape]

Wc6 don't need semenyo if you're benching Rogers already

[slim bane]

and then since then shitshow

[cerulean cape]

Kdb was a good pick for 2 gws

Then CL started

Foden was back

Etc...

[oak furnace]

so what r u saying i dont get semenyo?

[cerulean cape]

I honestly don't think I do on wc6

[slim bane]

sobbb

[frank mulch]

You probably should

[oak furnace]

southampton and leicester next 2

[cerulean cape]

Is semenyo that much better than Rogers gw6-7

[frank mulch]

I like having depth personally

[cerulean cape]

And is a guaranteed sell

[oak furnace]

ipswich away and united at home

[cerulean cape]

I'm happy playing him in both

I playing semenyo and Rogers tho for the record

Realised I don't need dcl and wood

[oak furnace]

idk where to use the cash tho

[cerulean cape]

Then you get semenyo

If the money does nothing

[oak furnace]

i can get robbo over konate for 6 and 7

[cerulean cape]

Remember you're 1 ft ahead of most was too

I dont hate that

Prefer you get semenyo

[oak furnace]

yeh cos i lost myself 14 points

saving a transfer

[cerulean cape]

Rather you cry later saying he was a good pick etc... lmao

[oak furnace]

i mean the other option is i dont get rogers

everyone says rogers is the best pick in the game

[cerulean cape]

Rogers is must have on wc

[oak furnace]

he finally returned last week

[cerulean cape]

0.5m more for nailed top 6 team

Over a winks

[slim bane]

.7 now

[cerulean cape]

Which idiot buys at 5.2m tho

[slim bane]

[cerulean cape]

It was 5m or 5.1m

[oak furnace]

i got rogers at 5.1 btw

[slim bane]

Check #1286994207692816414

[oak furnace]

cos i started fucking murphy over him

[slim bane]

Who didn’t

[cerulean cape]

Murphy has the same returns as him

[slim bane]

You just didn’t jump early enough

[cerulean cape]

Murphy has more returns than gordon

Same as isak

[slim bane]

Starting with triple newc never doing that again

[oak furnace]

i trade murphy out for eze in gw2

[slim bane]

Baited by their one good season

[frank mulch]

Is Raya the best long term gk?

[oak furnace]

eze scored 19 murphy scored 11

the hit was worth it

yay

actually its 17 vs 10

i gained 3 points

[slim bane]

Greaves needs .4 VAPM x 4M = 1.6 VA = 3.6 PPG over 4 games to make my tactic sound

That’s 14 points

Which is 1 CS?

[oak furnace]

2+2+2+6 is 12

[slim bane]

Can he do it

I mean 2 points ain’t far off

1 CS in this run

[oak furnace]

[slim bane]

Honestly if I’m starting him every week it’s less likely I miss when he does actually keep the clean

[oak furnace]

bowen banger
dcl hatty
mbeumo brace
vardy party

[slim bane]

Unlike last seasons rotation I just needed 1-2 returns

And I benched both returns

[oak furnace]

what scores more semenyo konate or rogers robbo?

[slim bane]

Semenyo konate

Oh

Future?

Rogers Robbo

[oak furnace]

gw6/7

[slim bane]

Tough call

Flip a good coin

[oak furnace]

trade robbo to porro gw8

[slim bane]

Not the one I flipped to lose my pick1

[oak furnace]

leaves me 1.1 mill in the bank in gw8

[cerulean cape]

Wish I have raya lmao

I take back what I said

[oak furnace]

jazzy if i go for rogers robbo it means i have 1.1 in the bank in gw8 and i could go diaz to bruno without having to do any other transfers

still have the big issue of rogers on field in gw10 and 11 vs spurs and liverpool tho

[cerulean cape]

I honestly like Diaz longer term too

But that's fine

Try a combo with both in from gw8

That's what I'm doing now

Or trying to do

[oak furnace]

Forgot to put him on field I was so excited

[slim bane]

@cerulean cape what’s the point of a wc6 thread if people post their wc6 teams outside the thread

[oak furnace]

trent and winks to bruno and myko

[cerulean cape]

For dummies to look at

[oak furnace]

its just me that posts outside

[slim bane]

Real ones send it here

[oak furnace]

this is my thread

we got all the lads here

ok this strategy is amazing
gw8 i can go
robbo trent jackson winks to porro myko fernandes solanke

using my 4 frees

[little delta]

niko what’s your fav wc so far

[oak furnace]

tell me if you see a weakness

[little delta]

the only negative is i guess 4.5m mid so u cant rotate

[oak furnace]

dont need to rotate the next 2

then after that i will use my 4 free transfers

Out: robbo trent jackson winks
In: porro myko solanke fernandes

decided i needed to try something new

[little delta]

Planned transfers never work out tho

[cerulean cape]

I need a miracle rise from saliba/semenyo for me to afford bruno gw8

[oak furnace]

winks or dibling?

[cerulean cape]

Doable if he blanks 2 more gws

Dibling

[little delta]

Dibling that’s easy

[cerulean cape]

Hate it tho

[little delta]

Hate what bruno

[cerulean cape]

Dibling

As 8th

[oak furnace]

hes only 8th for 2 weeks

[cerulean cape]

Rogers for 8th preferably as gw10,11, 13 suck for him

OK yea thats fine

[oak furnace]

ill send u my potential gw8 team

[oak furnace]

Idk who I'd bench
Maybe just bench Rogers gw8 and Diaz gw9?

[cerulean cape]

Yes

Taa is the sell for bruno

I'm trying to force him without selling taa

I can do it by selling saliba and my 2nd gk

[oak furnace]

roadmap is trent out in gw8 and back in gw14 or so

[cerulean cape]

Yea

Luckily it's a decision i can make gw8

My gw6 moves doesnt affect it

Gw6 team 🔒

[oak furnace]

my mate who copied my team and made 3 changes is now 22 points ahead of me but he didnt know to make transfers before price rises on wildcard so I got 7 price more than him

lets see if that makes a difference long term

[fleet oracle]

Myko and Ran both fell last night

TV of 102m
Actual value of 100.5m

Ugh

[slim bane]

mine is 101.6 TV now

[fleet oracle]

TV or actual Value?

[slim bane]

TV

actual value 100.6

[earnest torrent]

Any suggestions for a 4.6m budget def on WC?

I already have Aina

[oak furnace]

Get a 4.0 and keep the change

You won't be fielding

[earnest torrent]

Rather have someone to rotate with Aina

[oak furnace]

I don't like the 4.5 defenders

[earnest torrent]

I'm on Mazraroui as of now

[oak furnace]

Could work

[earnest torrent]

This is what my WC looks like

[slim bane]

More or less there

[earnest torrent]

No Porro Gvardiol or Saliba

[slim bane]

Yea cos you spent it on an 8th attacker

[earnest torrent]

Idm

[slim bane]

Then you can proceed

[fleet oracle]

Just realised Hendersons 9 pointer vs utd means that he is now the third highest scoring gk from gws 1-5 after sels and sanchez. ahead of flekken and areola. did not see that coming

[oak furnace]

Ye that's lucky

Was a shit pick until this week

Now he's ok

[lavish parcel]

expecting a red in 6

not to mention, team value's in the shitter

[slim bane]

but for whom?

[lavish parcel]

I'm not even on 101

some people have reached 102

[slim bane]

Some fake tho

102 in reality is 100.8 at best

[lavish parcel]

so many of my players are going down too

this is an absolutely stinky week to not be on wc

already feels like we're playing survival mode this season, and I'm still 2m!!!!

[violet temple]

Fr

Being forced into early moves

[oak furnace]

Why was wildcard gw6 so free

[slim bane]

2m is a good launching pad

[kind egret]

I'm 2.6 but green arrow

but I git pedro

not ideal

[oak furnace]

I'm 160k

[fleet oracle]

I’m on 102m, but I’m only 100.5 after all transfers. Don’t sweat it yet.

[fleet oracle]

Weird season. I’m 40k, but I’ve not looked at any content creators at all, and thus I’ve avoided almost all the traps.

Also means that a few punts that I looked at that content creators seem to have been pushing to avoid, I went for and paid off massively, like Diaz Jackson and Gabriel.

[oak furnace]

Diaz over jota would've put me top 5k

I went for Muniz over Jackson which cost me as well

[oak furnace]

Anyway I'm restarting the season now

Starting at 160k

[slim bane]

oh?

[oak furnace]

Interesting

[slim bane]

That’s just a wc team with havertz over wood/dcl

But flekken over raya

And no bench

Solanke and/or Jackson gonna be traps tho I just feel it

[oak furnace]

They will cook

[slim bane]

oh??

Guess I’m binning kdb

Warra 3 points in 3 games

After a -4 to get him in

Hasn’t even paid the hit off

[slim bane]

@supple steeple thoughts

[lavish parcel]

stop trying to make lewis happen

[slim bane]

Rodri is out innit

[lavish parcel]

and I doubt you'll even need him with the first 3

[slim bane]

Could be gvardiol and Johnson obv

[lavish parcel]

contrary to popular opinion, I would never bench porro

mayyyybe against the top 3 away

[slim bane]

But anw it’s just if I don’t need to hit him out yet why bother

He can become any 4.5 def

[violet temple]

Is that ur team

[slim bane]

Or this

why?

[violet temple]

Looks like a wc team

nice stuff

[slim bane]

That’s the plan

[violet temple]

I'll be running this

[slim bane]

Good team

[lavish parcel]

might be keeping mitoma through 6 and 7

[violet temple]

ty

[latent depot]

I think Diaz is necessary for GW6-7 against a Wolves defence missing their best CB and Palace not really defending

My WC6 is looking template af

[violet temple]

Yes I'm buying luis diaz even though no wc

[fleet oracle]

I wonder if it is a good idea to just have Pool Gvard Gab as a back 3, 2 4.0m fodders, and just play them every week

[lavish parcel]

could buy him

if I fancy a -8

[violet temple]

I'm running a taa saliba Gabriel backline

[fleet oracle]

henderson + two 4.0s?

[violet temple]

Henderson + myko + 4.0

Non wc so yeah

[cerulean cape]

That's why I catered my wc so hard for gw6

[slim bane]

show team?

[cerulean cape]

And my gw6 team is basically a wc team

Gw4 fucked it but still like 150k from wc4

[slim bane]

@zenith jolt tell me porro and Solanke comes good

Didn’t porro just rise

But he’s on -64.5 rn

so I can still potentially get a 4.5 mid

Pls fall porro

Triple blank for porro and people shifting onto Gabriel

There is hope

[latent depot]

I'm ready to play Lewis roulette prefer Lewis+Pinnock/Myko bench+0.4 ITB to Gvardiol+4.0/4.0

[slim bane]

same here we go

Need rodri news tho

[latent depot]

Lewis with Rodri dead

[slim bane]

Qn is it is long or short

Video analysis and my initial thoughts says it’s long but

Medical team says less serious than feared

[zenith jolt]

Idk

I could have 0/2 1/2 or 2/2 on wc

[slim bane]

useless spurs fan

[zenith jolt]

Probs 1/2

[slim bane]

can’t you trust your own team and sell the players

[zenith jolt]

Prefer buying porro in gw8

[slim bane]

sell them to me

[zenith jolt]

Same with solanke

[slim bane]

I mean I have Lewis so not overly concerned

[latent depot]

3 GKs almost dropping to 3.9, but none super close

[slim bane]

I can decide whether or not to bench porro

[latent depot]

Hopefully one drops on Saturday morning

[slim bane]

suspect it’ll be around gw8-12 when it happens

No one is making keeper transfers out of wc

[slim bane]

U reckon Jackson better short term yea?

Or just not getting one in that range

[latent depot]

Virginia -96.8, Matthews now -97.1

[slim bane]

How much is wc affected tho

From people changing to a 4.5 4.5

[latent depot]

Solanke GW6-11, Jackson/Havertz GW12+

Jackson GW6-7 + FT doesn't make sense

[slim bane]

Jackson purple patch tho(?)

That’s all I’m concerned about

[latent depot]

Chelsea GW8-10 uninspiring

[slim bane]

@zenith jolt dibling or winks

need to find Southampton fans to shed light on the matter lmao

what the fuck is a dibling

[slim bane]

Nice

What u doing with Pedro tho

[cerulean cape]

Play gw7, 8, 9

Gw10 to cunha maybe

Realised dcl wasn't needed with Rogers tbh

Rogers can play gw6-7

Gw8 plans with taa/semenyo to RAN/Bruno but trying hard to keep taa

[slim bane]

Havertz Solanke porro v wood Semenyo Saliba

[cerulean cape]

Decision made gw8 so no adjustments needed

[cerulean cape]

Wood/pedro semenyo saliba

So yea I win

Havertz cm trash

Solanke trash

[slim bane]

Havertz Solanke v Semenyo Saliba

[slim bane]

It’s Leicester thooooo

[cerulean cape]

It's leciester semenyo

And I have 8 games vs soton and Leicester

You have 6

My pedro gonna bust your porro cs

[slim bane]

my green arrow bout to be wiped out

Down to 1.1M

[cerulean cape]

But yea I don't need a -4 now

Just playing Rogers gw6 and pedro gw7 instead of 2x dcl

Rogers and Wood rotation is insane

It's like 9+ home fixtures in a row

Against bottom half + man utd/spurd

[slim bane]

Damn gvar close to dropping too

[slim bane]

This team with 4.5 mid slaps too

[cerulean cape]

Wood/pedro outscoring both up those frauds

Would say dcl too

[violet temple]

Got in wood for isak yesterday
One more change in price and i won't be able to afford my build so have to do early moves

Sad days

[latent depot]

FPL Review wants to bench Solanke GW6 to play DCL/Rogers

Free model that is

DCL's xPts are way too high

[silent jasper]

is Porro a must have def?

[cerulean cape]

xPens init

[cerulean cape]

No

I hate owning him

I also hate not owning him

[silent jasper]

I owned him when he keeps blanking for me last season

[violet temple]

It depends on who ur getting instead of him

[oak furnace]

matthews is from everyone going from henderson mathews to raya fabianski

[silent jasper]

I think might be dumb but thinking Mazraoui/Aina as 3rd and 4th def instead of Porro with 4.0 or something

[violet temple]

Yes that's a shout forsure

[oak furnace]

i just dont see any of these random 4.5 defenders matching porro gabriel trent

This team is actually such a vibe

DCL probably the big question mark for me

[violet temple]

Wood>

[cerulean cape]

Niko from the future - I knew I should have gotten Wood on my wc6, I'm so stupid now I'm 40 points down and I'm stuck on DCL

Also bemoaning Jackson over Solanke cost him 15 points + a ft

It's happening

[slim bane]

.6 ITB too

when you had havertz there all along

[zenith jolt]

Jackson is clearing solanke by >4pts unfortunately

[latent depot]

Chelsea GW6-7 are fake green

Forest will park the bus, Brighton are no joke

Not that Spurs' fix are any better, but it's not worth a FT

[zenith jolt]

2 home vs 2 away

[latent depot]

TBF Spurs are shite away

But it's Angeball vs United defence

[fleet oracle]

Wonder if gvard is better than porro from now- gw11

[latent depot]

United vs Spurs at OT was 2-2 last season

Spurs 16 shots

When's Shaw back

[fleet oracle]

Offically unknown, but I’ve heard rumours that he’ll be back in 2 weeks

"He's progressing but not yet ready to be selected,” said Ten Hag last week.

Looks like early-mid October

[frank mulch]

Maz

[fleet oracle]

When shaw is back, do we think maz or dalot loses their spot?

[frank mulch]

yeah prob maz

[fleet oracle]

Idk, both have been very solid so far. I think Maz has maybe even been the better of the 2

Albeit I’ve only watched 3 Utd games this szn

[lavish parcel]

what to do what to doooooo

might just have to go super aggressive

[slim bane]

Elite 1K median rank

2M

[slim bane]

you’re not alone

[fleet oracle]

I’ve made 5 or 6 different wc6 drafts atm and don’t like any of them

[fleet oracle]

Honestly? Dump havertz and take gvard jackson solanke porro

[slim bane]

Long term Havertz is the play so

And I’m not on wc

[fleet oracle]

Depends on how long Odegaard is out

[slim bane]

Against Leicester every chance he hauls too

[slim bane]

Not thatttt long

on wc probably would drop

but not on wc doesn’t make sense

[fleet oracle]

You have played this szn as if you’re on wc every week bro

[slim bane]

Before we play Leicester too

[fleet oracle]

Havertz in cm vs Leicester, no way. Hes the first player ever in prem history to play cm and get 0 passes in a game

[slim bane]

Leaning there too

but need Porro to drop

-66 now

Three red arrows

sell more pls

[lavish parcel]

just gotta decide which of my 6.5 shitters go

both underwhelming

thing is I’m really tempted to sell both right now because the other will go in gw8 anyway and I don’t see an obvious replacement at that point

and of course, eze could become a problem later

so some short term damage to lock in

now is the time to stack FTs

[zenith jolt]

Sorry for the react @slim bane had to be done

[lavish parcel]

am I yapping

[slim bane]

no

It’s how my brain would think too about fpl

[cerulean cape]

Show team

[frank mulch]

best 4.0 gk to pair with raya?

[lavish parcel]

fab or vald

[cedar hull]

Whoever drops to 3.9

[lavish parcel]

only mids I can see myself wanting to buy in gw8 are

spurs guys

or bruno

and all of those are super meh

bowen's a thing too but ...

nha

[slim bane]

Currently most people have Saka Mbeumo rogers

• 1

Esr mcneil Semenyo etc

Diaz as well

[cedar hull]

Esr

[cerulean cape]

Esr is popular with casuals

Keeping him from before

[slim bane]

Decent run of fixtures

lmao bakar washed

no wayyy

blud is banned

[cerulean cape]

I cant unblock his tweey

Idk how

Kaki did it cos bakar got bullied

Guy has bad takes tho so deserved imo

[slim bane]

I think bakar is like a banned word or something

or the whole start of the Twitter link

[cerulean cape]

I'll see when I cba

To look

[slim bane]

I mean

I don’t really care lol

[latent depot]

Just waiting for Jackson double rise before going to Solanke and 3.9 GK

[cerulean cape]

I care

[slim bane]

He has a lot of cherry picking

[cerulean cape]

Need more bad takes

[slim bane]

Where you spending the extra .3M

[latent depot]

GW8

[slim bane]

Nice

[latent depot]

0.4 ITB if 3.9 GK, Jota/Trent/Semenyo to Bruno/Eze/Porro GW8

Hope to earn 0.1 on each

[slim bane]

Diaz you mean?

[cerulean cape]

Jota 🤔

[slim bane]

Also surely TAA doesn’t gain .2

[cerulean cape]

He might

[slim bane]

Semenyo +- idt he’ll rise that much either

[cerulean cape]

Will gain 0.1m this gw

Smeenyo will rise once too

Any return from taa or semenyo will get a 2nd rise easily

[slim bane]

That price point is so volatile tho

A lot of 5.5 mids

[cerulean cape]

Just need a return

Exactly

[slim bane]

Just one 5.5 mid hauls and he’s done

[cerulean cape]

Easy switch 5.5m mids

[slim bane]

have to hope it’s him that hauls

Just hoping for porro to drop this week

[latent depot]

Semenyo return GW6 and he'll be 5.8 before GW8 deadline

[slim bane]

Also I presume dibling chat is just goal hype?

is he even nailed

[latent depot]

I'll just get Tavernier later

[cedar hull]

Tempted to go with both solanke and jackson

Not huge on dcl

Means a weak defence tho

[fleet oracle]

Idk whether to hold Jackson or not. My original plan was to hold till wc6 then move to havertz. But now idk

[slim bane]

My team pulls funds from raya and Semenyo to flek and rogers to get porro

So it’s not out of the question to also have a strong D

[frank mulch]

Any reason for DCL over Wood?

[fleet oracle]

Delusion maybe

[latent depot]

80 vs 90mins, MGW suspended for GW6, Chelsea away GW7, Palace/West Ham/Newcastle midtable, only really juicy fix is away Wood took 1 shot in GW1, and 1 shot (pen) in GW5, scored two goals, he's really not had much service

DCL just has such clear fixtures

[zenith jolt]

That it what i Like about DCL mainly

[latent depot]

might go for Bruno/Greaves instead of Diaz/Mykolenko, don't need that 0.3 in 3rd bench

[zenith jolt]

Can’t see him being a transfer out, wood will have to go earlier

in a period where fts are scarce

[frank mulch]

Bros gonna be full template

[latent depot]

Bruno is template?

[zenith jolt]

Fplcord player going for bruno 😱😱😱

You’ll get crucified in here

[latent depot]

I want Bruno GW8, so there's a case for owning him GW6

[frank mulch]

United have amazing fixtures

[zenith jolt]

There’s bubbles in fpl

[frank mulch]

Trio lurking

[acoustic edge]

caught

[zenith jolt]

Fplcord bubble - lots of liverpool love, diaz in every draft

Analytics - bruno in every draft, eze popping up

General - mix of both and other picks, bowen etc

its all perspective

[latent depot]

Diaz doesn't make sense as a 2 week punt when his fix aren't much better than Bruno's, and he's going to play 150 mins vs Bruno 180

obv saving 1 FT

think I'm just going to cash in on both Diaz/Jackson double rises

[zenith jolt]

same

still considering jackson

[violet temple]

Still don't know who's better diaz or bowen

Both seem fairly even

[cerulean cape]

Rogers and Wood rotation insane

[zenith jolt]

Rogers and Semenyo bruh

Not using an FT to sell semenyo

[cerulean cape]

Gw6-7 isn't rotation lol

[lone glade]

jackson wood haaland is so cold

[zenith jolt]

8,9,10 rogers

then semenyo is a hold

[cerulean cape]

I'm selling semenyo gw8 likely

Ot just play Rogers/pedro/Wood which is likely

Depends how I could get

Who

[latent depot]

Semenyo is easy +0.1, just buy Tavernier later

[cerulean cape]

I've watched tav kick a ball

No thank you

[zenith jolt]

He was class in sfpl though

[cerulean cape]

Dunno if joke

That's his brother fam

[latent depot]

actually, there's just no room for a 5.5 asset when Rogers is going to own that spot all season

[cerulean cape]

His bro is a rb and has like 5x career goals than him

[zenith jolt]

Simmed fpl not Scottish fpl

😭

[cerulean cape]

Oh fuck off

[cerulean cape]

This

Who else is good from gw8

[latent depot]

Eze

[zenith jolt]

McSauce

[cerulean cape]

Garnacho if nailed fuck

[zenith jolt]

Mavididi

[cerulean cape]

Have 12.1m for a def and mid

So 7.8m

[zenith jolt]

Bruno quansah

[cerulean cape]

Rashford ez

[zenith jolt]

Hes probably 3m by deadline

[cerulean cape]

Need semenyo and saliba rise

And one more bruno drop

Then I can afford bruno/4m

[zenith jolt]

Saliba is gonna fall brother

[cerulean cape]

Fine

[zenith jolt]

-55.3 on stats

[cerulean cape]

His turn to score this gw anyway

[zenith jolt]

Casuals buying gabriel

[cerulean cape]

When gabriel is 90% eo

[frank mulch]

I’m on Triple Arsenal def @cerulean cape

Ik you rate that

[zenith jolt]

Salah is not it man

[cerulean cape]

Don't even hate

Palmer matches saka anyway

[zenith jolt]

He has salah

Not palmer

[cerulean cape]

Trash palmer matches salah anyway

[frank mulch]

Who’s the best 4.5 mid?

Is it that soton lad

Winks?

[cerulean cape]

Dibling

[zenith jolt]

Dibbers ye

[latent depot]

FPL Raptor taking every GW

he benched Gabriel GW4 and GW5

he had Gabriel behind Robinson 2nd sub and he came on for Jota

[cerulean cape]

He was crying yesterday

Saying he kept on making bad mistakes

And is choosing to wc7

[latent depot]

yeah, he's going to WC to the same template as everyone else, except he's going to pay an extra 0.5+ for the privilege

[zenith jolt]

He gets to do it in an odd number week tho

as wc19 fh29 wc35 bb37 was so successful last year

[cedar hull]

An analytics wc

[lone glade]

bruno fernandes fuck me 😭

[latent depot]

Bruno is fine

[cedar hull]

Only concern with bruno is the last game

[lone glade]

[latent depot]

there are way more glaring picks than Bruno in that

[zenith jolt]

simon has shocking tv thats why its bad

[latent depot]

I agree with Bentley pick, but not before he drops to 3.9

[cedar hull]

First half against palace, united created 5 big chances, none from fernandes iirc, seemed they were less reliant on him, good for the team but bad for fpl

[latent depot]

I presume the reasoning is the same as mine i.e. if Arsenal make league cup final, Bentley has the most upside if he is starting by GW29 cos Wolves plays Soton

[lone glade]

@cedar hull you on the jackson pick?

[latent depot]

Johnstone also has had injuries

[zenith jolt]

this is probably me rn

[lone glade]

where wood

[zenith jolt]

i prefer dcl for .2 less

i think

havent decided

[cedar hull]

Dont know yet tbh

Probably

But not confirmed

I like the look of solanke + jackson but ultimately little gain

Dcl + jackson/solanke makes the most sense

Anyone looking at carvalho/schade, i just miss wissa

[cerulean cape]

I'm keeping JP, does that mean I'm team anal now

[lavish parcel]

I'm keeping jp but as an 8th guy

[thin jasper]

Hey friends I need some help with my FPL team

[lavish parcel]

gw7 is weird

[thin jasper]

Are there any helpers to help me right now

[lavish parcel]

will have to play one of pedro vs spurs or eze vs pool

[cerulean cape]

I'm getting wood so I will bench him for jp

[lavish parcel]

think it's obviously pedro

[thin jasper]

Yeah you start Pedro easily imo

[cerulean cape]

Jackson on wc

[lavish parcel]

wood is at chelsea

maybe that's benchable

[cerulean cape]

Pedro gw7-9 are good

Newcastle are dog

[lavish parcel]

back teams at home

[thin jasper]

I wildcarded and now have three players that don’t play anymore

[lone glade]

@cerulean cape is avaliable

[lavish parcel]

even 6 is ok, still not convinced chelsea defense is legit

[thin jasper]

Massive 20 minutes between Minteh Jota and Lewis

[thin jasper]

Smooth can you rate my team

[cerulean cape]

I have wood, Rogers, semenyo to play

[cerulean cape]

I dont help bottom 3 lemur

[thin jasper]

Are Minteh and Jota completely dead assets now

[cerulean cape]

Yes and no

[lavish parcel]

ok yeah I'd bench pedro over all of those

easily

[lone glade]

we are bottom 3 in lemur so

go on

[frank mulch]

Who’s our favourite sub 7.5 mid

[thin jasper]

bro wtf how am I always bottom 3

[thin jasper]

Boring answer but Mbeumo

[frank mulch]

Bar Mbeumo

Should’ve said that

[thin jasper]

Martinelli has started 4/5

But I’d still avoid

Too many better Arsenal assets

Otherwise I’d go all the way down to Semenyo I guess

And Smith Rowe is still decent too

[frank mulch]

Not Bowen?

[thin jasper]

I didn’t notice he was 7.5 or under since he’s above Jota on the app when I scroll through players

I feel like you could do a lot with the 2.0 you get from getting Semenyo or ESR though

And West Ham have been terrible

Maddison is 7.5

[fleet oracle]

Maddison has the second highest xGI of all players this season.

[thin jasper]

Maddison and Vardy in my team what season is this

Nah I should just get Mbeumo

[fleet oracle]

Yet only 3 returns

[thin jasper]

But Maddison could be fun

Spurs are shit though

[fleet oracle]

I’ve always liked Maddison as a pick

Even from back in his Leicester days

Same way I always loved stoke city shaquiri

[thin jasper]

WCGW selling Salah

[fleet oracle]

Garnacho at -99.8 on Fplstats. Am I missing something? Bc he was someone I was looking at for wc

[thin jasper]

Bad minutes across the season I guess

It’s probably just accumulated across a few game weeks

He hasn’t moved in price yet

[latent depot]

👀

[fleet oracle]

2.57xGI and 2 returns, slightly under performing

Also 2 goals 2 assists in the efl cup game midweek

@latent depot what website do you use to get your xG and comparison etc stats ?

[thin jasper]

Do you think Jota gets his spot back vs Wolves or benched again

[latent depot]

Understat, but I know it's sus

it just has the best UI

[fleet oracle]

Too early to say. Depends on what team we put out vs wham midweek

[thin jasper]

If Jota starts that ima just do this I think

[frank mulch]

Is Diaz double rising

I just wanna lock my team in

[thin jasper]

Can’t afford Semenyo since he rose so I have to sell Salah or Palmer to make funds

[fleet oracle]

Looks like it.

[thin jasper]

Might sell Palmer to Saka but I hate that

[fleet oracle]

I’m surprised jota got no mins tbh. I’m still not sure how Arne works his subs, he seems hard to predict, other than he’s not afraid to make an early one

Sanchez looks like he might double rise this gw too

[latent depot]

only Diaz/Mbeumo/Jackson will double rise

[lone glade]

whos rising today then

[frank mulch]

Any reason specific for Pinnock over Dunk? @latent depot

[latent depot]

better fixtures, reasonable to start GW9 over Gabriel

I've got Colwill now anyway

it saves a transfer later

Chelsea/Man United rotation is great

will get a Man United defender GW11

[frank mulch]

Are you starting Colwill this week?

[latent depot]

no, he's first sub

[frank mulch]

When are you starting him?

Seems kinda pointless

[latent depot]

I'm playing Lewis roulette

[cedar hull]

Colwill over pinnock?

[latent depot]

Lewis 4.7/Colwill 4.5/Myko 4.3 + 0.4 ITB > Gvardiol 5.9/4.0/4.0

[latent depot]

yes, intend to hold GW6-33, rotates great with Man United defender

[cedar hull]

I still prefer pinnock but ig youre playing longer term

[frank mulch]

Dunk is better long term imo

[latent depot]

doesn't rotate as well, and it's important that that spot has a good GW24

City vs Arsenal GW24

[cedar hull]

De ligt has had great goal threat so far

1.65 shots a game

[latent depot]

Dunk also has ehhh fix short term and you never know when he needs to come on for Lewis 0 mins

I suppose Myko is there

for example, look at this GW12-16, there's always a good 1st sub here

the intention is Trent to Porro GW8, Myko to United defender GW11, then I can ride that combination until WC30-34

[oak furnace]

Wolves and Palace vs Spurs and villa

I'm praying I get enough rises that I can get a 4.5 defender instead of myko in gw8

Don't want too many Everton

Who will play DM for city now with Rodri out?

[cerulean cape]

Ran at 4.4m

For gw10+

[oak furnace]

Has to be someone I field

[cedar hull]

Kova for now

[oak furnace]

Who is the best Brighton 5.5 mid? Was just looking at potential transfer plans

[latent depot]

in terms of defences, they're actually very very close

Wolves 20th at home, Palace 8th at home

oops highlighted wrong team

Spurs 28th away, Villa 24th away

obv last season's data, but it shows that the teams on paper isn't everything

[oak furnace]

Villa is home

[latent depot]

oh yay, 15th

so like I said, very very close

[oak furnace]

Liverpool attack vs United attack

[latent depot]

obv, but it's 150mins vs 180mins, no penalties vs penalties

[oak furnace]

I can afford Fernandes over Diaz btw

[latent depot]

I'm not saying Bruno is better than Diaz, I'm saying that Bruno+FT is better than Diaz

cos I'm planning the transfer anyway GW8

[cerulean cape]

Getting both long term from gw8

That's the play

[latent depot]

Gakpo existence is pretty annoying tho

[oak furnace]

Yeh that extra free transfer is nice I guess

For me I have more free transfers than most

[cedar hull]

Saka to bruno gw9

[latent depot]

Arsenal is set and forget

[zenith jolt]

Yeah i’ll sell a defender and keep saka

Wc6 keeps winning

👀

[cerulean cape]

Wc6 desperate times

Praying a 3.9m option

[latent depot]

isn't necessary at all, but would be nice obv

[oak furnace]

I traded out Matthews and haven't activated wildcard yet

It's counting me

[latent depot]

can't believe how he's caught up to Virginia, must be a lot of WC noise there

prob not falling, will be -95 tomorrow

meanwhile, Quansah at 4.1 and still falling -25

[oak furnace]

I don't get quansah at all how is he continuously dropping

[fleet oracle]

I wonder what’s more valuable in the first 6 gws, 4 points/a FT or 0.1TV

[oak furnace]

Depends if you trade in the right player

If you trade in a player that blanks then the free transfer was more important

[latent depot]

so what you're saying is... pick players who score points

[oak furnace]

That's how the game works

[latent depot]

Dibling hype is weird

Bro isn't nailed, that's the bare minimum requirement

[cedar hull]

Apparently he was linked to some big clubs during the transfer window, good prospect for southampton so i guess people are assuming hes only gonna get more minutes

[oak furnace]

Idk what to do there

Probably go winks

[cedar hull]

Id rather dibling than winks

Lewis at -96.3

[oak furnace]

Same I think

[frank mulch]

He’s their best player

Who would you go for then? Winks?

[latent depot]

No, you find the money for Rogers, it's clear as day

[frank mulch]

Already got him

[latent depot]

If you still need another enabler, something's gone wrong

[oak furnace]

I'm going Rogers on field at least first 2-4 then going to probably get Dibling up to someone after that

[frank mulch]

Rogers can start every week

[slim bane]

Both -100.1 now

[oak furnace]

Hopefully people are smart and are trading out without wildcard

[slim bane]

Porro -97.7 2 arrows
Lewis -96.3 3 arrows

Not adverse to the idea of spending another 4 points to preserve .1

Gvar-100.2

[latent depot]

Kelleher near a rise wtf is going on

Just took Lewis out

[slim bane]

Wc noise

Only concern I have being not on wc

There’s midweek cup games

[oak furnace]

It's crazy you can legit see the template was Henderson Matthews and then WC gw6

Literally they completely plummeted

I still have porro in my team incase I decide I want him

Should I trade out to make him more likely to drop

[zenith jolt]

sold porro

[slim bane]

W

[zenith jolt]

looking at both lewis and gvard on wc

which is v nice

not at once

[oak furnace]

Ok I'll sell porro too

I'm getting konate for now

[little delta]

No big price changes calm

I still have porro

[frank mulch]

I wish maz was an option

[lavish parcel]

the only one I can justify now is martinez

and he's quite injury prone

[cerulean cape]

Didn't realise dcl and wood actually play against the same teams

All 3 home fixtures are the same

Might buy dcl if pedro out instead of wood

Or legit buy both again for -4

[lavish parcel]

I'd rather be stuck with wood than dcl

trust him more atm

[latent depot]

I've basically gone for xMins on my 50/50s for DCL+better fix vs Wood and Bruno+FT vs Diaz. I acknowledge that Wood/Diaz are possibly/probably better prospects playing for better attacks, but the difference is marginal/unquantifiable, so I'm satisfied with my logic

[zenith jolt]

Gang

[oak furnace]

I wish I could afford wood

If Diaz double rises I can afford him

[proud gale]

whats the reasoning of bruno over diaz

[oak furnace]

if i want to save a free transfer

[latent depot]

Nikolastico drinking my Bruno kool aid, can't wait for "why didn't I go with my instinct for Diaz"

[proud gale]

surely diaz outscores bruno by four points dawg

if ur taking a hit even

and a ft is worth slightly less than a hit

man u: spurs villa brentford
pool: wolves palace chelsea

wolves is the key one and diaz form > for me makes that worth surely

[oak furnace]

im likely going diaz

[latent depot]

Whoever you go for, can't wait for the regret

[proud gale]

would u ft him out gw9

[latent depot]

It's definitely a coin flip decision

[proud gale]

also frees up .4m

[latent depot]

It's 90mins + pens + better long term fix (or saves FT if going Diaz to Bruno GW8) vs 75mins + better GW6-7 + better attack - possible bench for Gakpo

[kind egret]

heavy ayy breathing

[proud gale]

Bruno

• 90 mins
• nailed
• better long term fix/save ft if going Diaz -> Bruno GW8/9
• on pens

Diaz

• 75 mins
• possibility of benched for Gakpo
• better short term fix (gw6/7)
• better attacking team
• better form

helps visualise it better

do u think diaz can survive til gw12 without a bench for gakpo
