yes

from what I understand

but I've not been following it closely

[fleet oracle]

Lmao my nose is fucked too, and thats exactly how I sleep, except I rotate my pillow so it’s long ways on the bed instead of across it.

Lucho played 90 mins

If you still have him

[broken patio]

So like a body pillow

[fleet oracle]

correct

[little delta]

any news on son?

Max one DGW for City this season, that too if they reach the FA Cup semi final.

Twitter · Oct 30, 2024, 10:12 PM

[slim bane]

Perhaps that’s for the best

Not many city players we’d trust to start both

[lavish parcel]

it's time to tc palmer

or mo

someone will definitely use this as an excuse to sell haaland for the rest of the season

[cedar pine]

I mean it's telling me I should be a bit less careful with saving my TC chip

[limber pine]

Which 3 do I start? 😭

[cedar pine]

but theres other options that can get DGW still

the 3 fit ones

[limber pine]

There ain’t 3 fit there

[cedar pine]

#fpl_chat message

[lavish parcel]

might just plump it on salah or palmer when they have ipswich at home

[cedar pine]

surely this twitter account i dont know is reliable

[limber pine]

Gabriel gonna play

[lavish parcel]

if it's not during major fixture congestion

[limber pine]

Gvardiol gonna play

Lewis gonna play

Robertson benched

Dunk not in squad

[lavish parcel]

I'd be very pleasantly surprised if gab makes it

the injury happened in a pretty nasty area

just gotta wait for training photos

or something

arteta will tell you nothing

[limber pine]

We’ll get an early leak anyway

[pulsar chasm]

gabriel is not featuring in those this week i’m afraid

[lavish parcel]

arteta has banned him from featuring

[broken patio]

Captaincy this week is hard

I was set on Palmer but Im a lil scared of the new manager bounce

Especially after utd looked good yesterday (although it was Leicester(

I suppose Salah is the play but obvs I have unconscious bias against that

[cedar pine]

beef

dont be silly

[broken patio]

Hello

Okay

[cedar pine]

thanks

[broken patio]

Salah it is :(

[cedar pine]

or

i said or

haaland is what im waiting for

pick 1, chill, and you win

[broken patio]

Ah well I don't have Haaland

Salah saka Palmer gang

[cedar pine]

i guess not everyone can be part of the cool gang

thats fine

[broken patio]

Guess not

@zenith jolt how did you sleep?

[cedar pine]

there's a place for everybody

[cedar pine]

With his mouth taped shut, i reckon

[lone glade]

sleep is so good man

[broken patio]

How has someone reacted to this entire thread

[cedar pine]

you dont know?

[broken patio]

There's an angery reacc in my top left corner

[cedar pine]

ill post a screenshot

[broken patio]

It's annoying me

[cedar pine]

beef once upon a time you were knowledgeable

[broken patio]

I never was

That was merely a facade

[lone glade]

do that rmt

[cedar pine]

No that one is reserved for vrawn

[lone glade]

bro got sent to the shadow realm

[broken patio]

Quite a good team

[cedar pine]

God im funny. Brb getting another beer

[broken patio]

But it has solanke

[lone glade]

i have solanke

got dcl out tho

makes it better

[broken patio]

Did you get DCL out for solanke?

[lone glade]

[broken patio]

Wait fr

[lone glade]

no

[broken patio]

Surely not

[lone glade]

i got jackson out for solanke 2 weeks ago and jackson scores in both them 2 weeks

cba

im 5.5million i need a comeback

[broken patio]

Jealous

My manager called me in early so that he can leave and go to a pub quiz

[cedar pine]

🍻

[broken patio]

Can't wait until he's gone in 2 weeks and the bar is all mine

[zenith jolt]

Decent

[broken patio]

I couldn't go through with sleeping on my back

Tried but it didn't work

I'll go again tonight

[lone glade]

no one real can do that

[cedar pine]

its an age thing

u get older u will sleep on ur back

100%

sleeping on ur side is better btw

all you need to make sure is have a pillow between your legs

[fleet oracle]

You’re a mixologist? do you make your own cocktails? Or just predetermined menu?

[cedar pine]

guys all they do is put alcohol together

its harder to get it wrong

[broken patio]

Any bartender who calls themselves a mixologist is a cunt

Just a term to sound super wanky

Knowing mixology and how to create and balance drinks should be part of your job as a bartender

[broken patio]

Yeah I'm gonna revamp the menu

[cedar pine]

Add one part alcohol. Add one part sugar. Look at your customer. Add either one part acidic beverage or two additional parts alcohol

[fleet oracle]

I remember a few years ago when I was working at a bar, these group of middle aged women celebrating someone’s 50th asked me to create them a cocktail each off the cuff. I’m happy to say only 2/5 were failures xD

[fleet oracle]

Any ideas on what you’re gonna add?

[lavish parcel]

what does that do

[cerulean cape]

Lfg bois

[oak furnace]

What were you playing

[cerulean cape]

Poker

Made deal for joint 2nd

60 in 840 out

[oak furnace]

Huge

I love poker

[cerulean cape]

Was a mystery bounty tournament

[cedar pine]

It adjusts your spine or something like that

[mystic star]

😎

[copper hinge]

Fun 🙂

[slim bane]

wc time

[cedar pine]

have you popped the button yet Ayy

[cedar pine]

is the fourmium active

[copper hinge]

Might just have to, annoying cunha rose

[slim bane]

no

if gab and gvar are fine I can wait out iggggg?

Salah is a nuisance tho

[cedar pine]

Need another salah price rise

[lone glade]

im playing 433 but im unsure if i should start porro, means i start 3x spurs or gabriel

[cedar pine]

hopefully saturday night

[lone glade]

worst case is that i start gab and he doesn't play and porro subs on

[cedar pine]

your team must be weird af

if ur benching porro

[cerulean cape]

I'm benching porro

Fuck spurs

[cedar pine]

wheres haaland

[cerulean cape]

Ffs

Salah + cunha + 2m > haaland + semenyo

[lone glade]

haaland vs bou

diff breed

[cerulean cape]

Same Bournemouth who kept cs gs city init

Vs arsenal*

I need sleep

[lone glade]

man city will score

[lone glade]

yeah duh you were playing poker at 4am

[cerulean cape]

Yea predicting 2 goals

Yea got back at 5am

No uber was taking me home

Had to get last train back

[lone glade]

when did you get there

[cerulean cape]

I set off my house at 5pm

[lone glade]

lmao

[cerulean cape]

Worst thing is I think making a deal was the wrong choice

[silent jasper]

Arsenal were down to 10 man iirc
But huge for Bou nevertheless

[cerulean cape]

City have foden, they're basically 10 men??

[slim bane]

Sold porro

@broken patio joao Pedro back?

[slim bane]

yea that’s what I’m referring to

[lone glade]

so i assume he is back

[slim bane]

Wc12 idea?

Or this

Assuming nunes holds down a spot

[cerulean cape]

Why is Henderson there

Also get okoli over one soton boi

[silent jasper]

he will defo hold a spot but not sure if he will after the IB

[slim bane]

4.4

[slim bane]

Isn’t okoli 4M

I lose value on thb if I drop him

and I only have 3.9M on the last def

granted this is before price changes so I may not even be able to afford this

[cerulean cape]

huim for thb then

[slim bane]

^^

THB is 4.1

[cerulean cape]

so you don't lose value

[slim bane]

huh I do lose .1 TV

[fleet oracle]

Yeah but it’s not actual TV

[little delta]

is solanke out?

[slim bane]

It is if he rises again

[cerulean cape]

Fuck

Bad news for non owners

[slim bane]

is he actually out tho

I know he’s out of my team that’s about it

[silent jasper]

if he is out I might just get Cunha/JSL in I guess

[zenith jolt]

Foden covers haaland

[cedar hull]

Foden to salah i assume

[zenith jolt]

Semen

[cedar hull]

Semen 👍

[cerulean cape]

Raul, dcl, solanke vs cunha, wood, welbeck

Fuck every player on the right is an upgrade

[zenith jolt]

Yea my bad

Should’ve known wood dcl on wc6 was a 33 point swing

[cerulean cape]

Gw1 wood owners saw that coming

[zenith jolt]

At least i didnt go Muniz

[cerulean cape]

If he was called woodinho, he'd 3x the owners

[zenith jolt]

went jp + rogers

[cedar pine]

Rauls done well wtf

[zenith jolt]

Myko on bench feels wrong

[cedar pine]

dont throw him in with soblanke and dcl

[zenith jolt]

Don’t feel confident in benching porro/gab

[cerulean cape]

People bought him for everton

No one owned before

[zenith jolt]

Don’t worry I just bought him last night I’m point chasing

[cerulean cape]

In fact no one owns welbeck either

[cedar pine]

ah okay fair enough i read the wc6 part so i assumed owned since gw6

which would be 23 points in 4 games

[zenith jolt]

Yeah just sold erling for him

[cerulean cape]

Wc6 gang all 🐑

[zenith jolt]

lol

[cedar pine]

true and I've said that since gw1

[cerulean cape]

Welbeck 32 points from 5 games for me

[zenith jolt]

built my team around wc6

[cedar pine]

bunch of people who decided beforehand that GW6 was the week to WC

[cedar pine]

No you built your team under the ASSUMPTION that gw6 would be the best time to WC

[cerulean cape]

Unlike me who made 5 fts to make a wc6 and flop with them

[zenith jolt]

people wouldn’t be saying that if wc6 had any positive variance at all

[cedar pine]

sheep can have good outcomes too

like I said i said this pre GW1

[zenith jolt]

i had no choice anyway

[cedar pine]

when people were talking about GW6 being "optimal" WC week i was like "it looks good but gonna see how it feels at the time"

[cerulean cape]

Dcl owners blaming variance for doing poorly

[cedar hull]

Optimal wc week is every week

[zenith jolt]

i pretty much pinned myself down

[cerulean cape]

As oppose to buying a dogshit player

[zenith jolt]

other people did too

[cedar pine]

i have been guilty of this in the past. You try to double down so hard on your decision being right to make it pay off

[cerulean cape]

Wc6 was fine

[cedar pine]

Its like a slot gambler who keeps playing to get his money back

[cerulean cape]

We build fpl teams in fixtures

[zenith jolt]

i’m sure 33 pts in 4 weeks is representative of the xgi

[cerulean cape]

This works 80% of the time

Wc6 was the 20% that missed

[cedar pine]

[cerulean cape]

Also wc6 was very palmer dependent

[cedar hull]

Jazzy still on his gambling high i see

[cedar pine]

amazing copium

[zenith jolt]

No one real went palmer on wc6

[cerulean cape]

xGi for player specific tho

[cerulean cape]

Like 20% did

@thin jasper

My goat did

[zenith jolt]

Point stands

[cerulean cape]

My very first draft had palmer

Bring it back

And mbeumo

My 1st draft is feasting

[zenith jolt]

Swapped raya esr to henderson nkunku on gw1 deadline day

[cedar pine]

I think my problem with looking at WC6 is that it just didnt change much from the GW1-5 template for me

[zenith jolt]

think that was a 50pt swing

[lavish parcel]

what’s the news today

[cedar pine]

you got in Flekken, doubled down in arsenal defence, got in Mbeumo, maybe you grabbed Saka, Semenyo

youve become so lazy semi

[lavish parcel]

nah I’m just not glued to discord 24/7 anymore

[cedar pine]

skill issue

also not what i was refering to

i havent checked yet news tbh i was planning on doing it after last pressers are done

[little delta]

where is the money going to??

[zenith jolt]

haha

vdv out until ib

[little delta]

bad for spurs

obv

[cerulean cape]

Porro is now conceding 2 goals now every game ffs

Not even getting 2 points

Son likely fit

[zenith jolt]

10m itb forgot to say

[little delta]

son cap v ipswich will hit like crack

[zenith jolt]

yessir

thoughts on me keeping foden bou bha for 2 weeks

as opposed to hitting for palmer mun ARS

[little delta]

if spurs don’t do a 3 or 4-0 v ipswich i give up

[thin jasper]

I’ve been looking to sell Palmer for a while but he’s too good to sell

[cedar hull]

Might do an ayy lmao and take a -8 to get salah saka

[zenith jolt]

I might take a -8 in 12

-4 is locked

[cedar pine]

yes yes, let the hits flow through your fpl teams

[cedar hull]

Inject it

[zenith jolt]

Solanke to havertz is an understandable hit

[cedar pine]

not really

i dont see why you want to spend 8m on havertz right now

[zenith jolt]

when is ode back

[cedar pine]

not this week

[zenith jolt]

this hit is in 12

[cedar pine]

[cedar hull]

Solanke Haaland Semen Foden to Cunha 9m fwd Salah Saka

Very unlikely i do it

But i have to take a hit to get salah anyway

No hit for just saka

[lavish parcel]

my defense might not hit 3 points this week icl

but I cba to make a transfer in it

the position is just dead

[slim bane]

Do I start RAN over anyone is the question

and if I don’t why did I transfer him in

[cedar hull]

Fernandes

[slim bane]

Think gna bench Lewis

[pulsar chasm]

gabriel

[slim bane]

really??

[pulsar chasm]

i mean it’s close but yeah probably

[slim bane]

Thinking Lewis tho

I’m expecting a bench

Honestly one of them probably misses out

So autosub kicks in

[pulsar chasm]

i mean i’d ask aswell why you did the RAN move if you weren’t going to start him

but yeah you may get an auto sub

[acoustic edge]

preach

who’s made a wc10 here

[slim bane]

Fomo

[slim bane]

wc12 maybe

[acoustic edge]

that’s so haram

[lavish parcel]

😭😭😭😭

[acoustic edge]

starting nunes and joao every week no bench

can’t forget lewis

[slim bane]

right

Guess I might actually have to make a no haaland draft

[pulsar chasm]

4mium is way too much

[slim bane]

Not worth it if I ever consider bringing him back in tho

[lavish parcel]

I feel like wc12 would have

[slim bane]

Jackson

[lavish parcel]

jackson watkins

and a 6.5

[acoustic edge]

havertz?

[lavish parcel]

maybe him too

there are just way too many good players in the position

[slim bane]

fuckkkkkk

[lavish parcel]

threemium and boomo in midfield

easy

just go 2 4.0s

[acoustic edge]

lewis to a 4.5

or henderson in

[slim bane]

isn’t that an unnecessary -4

Gw12 is 2 weeks away right

So 2 fts just nice

Have to account for price changes too as well tho

I was gna say maybe gvar for konate

but I literally just got gvar in

I also just got ran in

[acoustic edge]

lmfaooo

[slim bane]

so doesn’t make sense to sell him

It’s not even as if hendo has good fix gw12 onwards

[severe forge]

Could downgrade havertz as well

[slim bane]

keep in mind any extra move is a -4

ffs

[severe forge]

Also I swear there is a defender for 3.9m

[slim bane]

Yea

[severe forge]

Just do that tbh

[slim bane]

Would lose .1 from thb tho

[severe forge]

If u don’t wanna get rid of havertz

Personally I would get rid of havertz

[slim bane]

damn

Ok

[slim bane]

Probably VVD over gvar if I wc

And fab over Virginia

[cerulean cape]

@zenith jolt show gw12 team

I'm gonna get raya/saka gw12 for flekken/foden

[slim bane]

2M ITB?

If I wc

Dare I gamble Havertz drops

And sell him to bank the .1 first

Then bring him back in

-100.6

[cerulean cape]

Yes

2.7m or something

[slim bane]

Damn

[cerulean cape]

Maybe I should have made early moves

[zenith jolt]

Ayy really being serious about this fourmium shit

[slim bane]

No

Wc to this

Or konate over VVD

[pulsar chasm]

who would you guys bench?

[slim bane]

And onana in?

[slim bane]

Myko

[zenith jolt]

saliba ibr

idk im stuck with def too

[thin jasper]

Digne away to Spurs or Faes away to Ipswich?

[slim bane]

Digne

[thin jasper]

Damn no faith in the Leicester defence

[slim bane]

Yea

surely there’s goals in the game

[thin jasper]

I also have Maz but idk if he plays

I thought he was struggling with something

[slim bane]

@zenith jolt VVD or gvar

or konate and spend more on gk

Would’ve 9.2M total for GK if konate, if not it’s hendo and fab duo

Onana fab or like verb sels etc idk haven’t looked at pairings

[zenith jolt]

when are you wildcarding

gvard is also a doubt and that would put me off buying

[slim bane]

now

[zenith jolt]

pog

[zenith jolt]

better see bruno in there

[slim bane]

no

[zenith jolt]

[slim bane]

Konate Bruno over VVD Boomo?

[zenith jolt]

why not have a haaland and salah on wc10

and sell haaland to palmer in 12

[slim bane]

bruh too many moves

[zenith jolt]

jackson and palmer surely not 2 players you want to wc into

[slim bane]

I have Palmer alr

it’s just whether I should delay the transfers and then I might as well wc now

Cos I alr made 3 fts this week

[zenith jolt]

have u committed to wc

oh

[slim bane]

no salah fomo

[zenith jolt]

that team just looks like a wc12 that youve made in gw10

preempting the swings

[slim bane]

So I should just do flek to hendo rogers to Salah haaland to Jackson in gw12?

-4

And then save the wc even later

[zenith jolt]

i meant the one you sent before

with no haaland

[slim bane]

Yea do I have a choice

[zenith jolt]

preferably you kinda want haaland for the next 2, most people just selling as it is a good window to swap him for salah to prepare their gw12 teams

[slim bane]

I got Palmer at 10.7 he’s 11 now

[zenith jolt]

with wc its different

[slim bane]

Salah this week arguably best cap tho(?)

[silent jasper]

not sure if you would drop VVD and get Konate and upgrade Hendo to Sels for example

[slim bane]

Yea that’s one option

[zenith jolt]

i think @pulsar chasm is wc12 and is holding haaland and freeing up funds elsewhere to get salah

[slim bane]

9.2M on gks if I get konate

[slim bane]

Alr made my moves tho

Onana fabianski

Or sels verb

[silent jasper]

Sanchez + Sels might be ok but I am bad at guessing which GK to play so yeah

[zenith jolt]

sanchez is good

yea

[pulsar chasm]

yes

[zenith jolt]

sanchez fab

[slim bane]

Ok but anw it’s moot if I don’t wc this week

[silent jasper]

Verb's fixture is pretty good from 12 onwards too

[pulsar chasm]

going palmer to salah this week

because i want to cap salah

[zenith jolt]

then wc12 to get palmer back in

[slim bane]

Lose so much tv on Palmer tho

[pulsar chasm]

i lose 0.1

[zenith jolt]

and gains pts presumably

[slim bane]

I lose .2 I think

[pulsar chasm]

i’m not that big on TV

defo not to the extent you are anyways

[slim bane]

Over next two weeks we think Haaland rogers outscores Salah Jackson?

[pulsar chasm]

like i’ll probably sell rogers next week and could get him back a week later

[slim bane]

If yes then I might just hold and do a -4 in gw12

[cedar pine]

what do you guys think about Gvardiol and Wood to Cunha and Konate

[zenith jolt]

don't like it

[slim bane]

Rate it

[pulsar chasm]

not a fan

[slim bane]

[cedar pine]

ayy rates it, thats bad. Wahful doesnt like it, thats good

[silent jasper]

wouldn't sell Wood tbh

[pulsar chasm]

i’m 2 million so go figure

[cedar pine]

Dooby felt excluded in the meme

unlucky

[pulsar chasm]

i know

[cedar pine]

It's just, im sitting on 5 FTs and dont really know what to do

[slim bane]

help me decide

[cedar pine]

between what

[slim bane]

wc or no wc

[cedar pine]

i told u to pop the button

[pulsar chasm]

ayy can you send your original team

[cedar pine]

12 guaranteed points from popping the WC is pretty sick

[pulsar chasm]

oh it’s this

[cedar pine]

and you're using a FT as well

so thats 4 saved transfers baseline

[slim bane]

this is the post 3fts

[cedar pine]

seems pretty obvious to me

[zenith jolt]

ayy whats ur tv

103?

[slim bane]

103.4 rn

Pre wc

[zenith jolt]

tf

[slim bane]

Selling Haaland and rogers means down .4

So 103 post wc

[cedar pine]

fuck would you guys do here then? sell Porro??

[slim bane]

Selling gvar means another .1 too

So 102.9

Porro to konate

[cedar pine]

if Gvardiol doesnt play im donezo

tbh soton has Everton

its not so bad

[slim bane]

Yea but that’s why for your team I would make the move

get 11 starters

[pulsar chasm]

i think i’d sell porro yeah

[cedar pine]

Porro to Konate doesnt change number of starters

[zenith jolt]

rogers to brereton diaz

oh wait

[slim bane]

I mean ur proposed

[cedar pine]

oh

[pulsar chasm]

have you clicked the button

[slim bane]

to wc?

no

[pulsar chasm]

no on the ft’s

[zenith jolt]

that could honestly be a burn ft

[slim bane]

I have 10 hours before price changes

[zenith jolt]

wood to raul? idk

[slim bane]

Yes

That’s how I can see that page

[pulsar chasm]

good point well made

[slim bane]

And also to bank .2 on ran and cunha

missed the Salah rise tho

That’s annoying

[zenith jolt]

rogers raul have a good long term rotation

[cedar pine]

thats why I was thinking Gvardiol->Konate Wood->Cunha

[slim bane]

If rogers keeps his starting spot lol

[pulsar chasm]

i don’t really think that needs a wc

no salah is annoying but is what it is

[zenith jolt]

no salah isnt a dealbreaker if you have wc

like i said a lot of people buying him this week are doing it out of convenience as they'll want him from 12

and they don't have wc

[cedar pine]

I could also just do Gvardiol to VVD

[slim bane]

butttt I have alr spent 3 fts this week

[slim bane]

Do u need the .8 anywhere

[zenith jolt]

don't really like selling gvard tbh

next 2 seem like games city can clean in

[cedar pine]

city fix kinda bad soon

Bournemouth away aint great

[zenith jolt]

more likely to clean in a tight away game than an IPS(H) etc imo

just how they are

[cedar pine]

i dont think bournemouth away is a tight away game

[zenith jolt]

well you sort of know what i mean

[cedar pine]

i know what you're implying yeah i just dont think its a good fixture

bournemouth has scores in every single homegame besides the game vs chelsea

will think some more on it ig

[slim bane]

same for my wc

[zenith jolt]

i think the move is better than burning

[slim bane]

another benefit of wc

[zenith jolt]

but idk if its the best move

[slim bane]

is I avoid a potential Havertz drop

And I’ll have 3FTs into gw11

[broken patio]

Surely that same money is better spent on Jackson, no?

[pulsar chasm]

with the ft element it’s different

[cedar pine]

Exactly

[pulsar chasm]

wc10 and 3-4 ft in 12 probably gives you the best gw12 team

[valid ocean]

I’m on wc10 rn

[slim bane]

what I’m doing now is a wc12 ready team tho

If I wasn’t selling Haaland for Salah there’s no reason to trigger wc

[broken patio]

@slim bane I started Gabriel over ran last week and it hurt

Not making the same mistake again

[slim bane]

rip

[broken patio]

Don't see arsenal cleaning at st james'

[slim bane]

I’m probablyyyyy benching Lewis

[pulsar chasm]

that’s what i made when considering earlier in the week

gvardiol can be gabriel now he’s fit

[slim bane]

This for gw10 right

[pulsar chasm]

yes

[acoustic edge]

does look good

[slim bane]

where to spend .5M

[violet temple]

Is that a wc?

[slim bane]

Yea

[violet temple]

Looks rlly good

[slim bane]

I’m like 65% to popping it

[violet temple]

Shit I might just wc from this ass team

[violet temple]

But my tv isn't any where near yours probably

[slim bane]

35% being my current team (after 3fts) is playable

it’s just if I have to spend another 3-4 FTs to get Salah in

Flek to Sanchez
Gvar to konate
Rogers to Salah
Haaland to Jackson

should I just do it this week where I’ve alr made 3 fts

then I can have 3fts going into 11

Downside being do I want Salah Jackson over Haaland rogers for next 2 weeks

[slim bane]

vs no fts going into 13 with wc intact

[slim bane]

@lone glade

[lone glade]

damn not bad at all

[slim bane]

in a dilemma whether to do so anot tho

read above text

icl my gut decisions have been shit this season

[lone glade]

you dont even need a wc

[slim bane]

this is aft 3fts tho

and I’ll need another 3-4 to get to gw12 team

which I don’t have

[lone glade]

just pop it

what happens happens

[slim bane]

I like your thinking

butttt the security of a wc

anywhere I can spend the .5?

[lone glade]

bro my wc made my team worse

[slim bane]

this wc might be my downfall too who knows

selling Haaland is always risky

[lone glade]

i dont really think you could spend that 0.5 anywhere

[lone glade]

eh virgil

more nailed ig

[slim bane]

Henderson VVD over Sanchez konate

I thought they’re similar nailedness

[lone glade]

isnt konate inj prone

[violet temple]

I'd go 2

[slim bane]

and honestly I’d rather take konate Sanchez .5M

[lone glade]

palace def eh

just go 2

[slim bane]

ok maybe I’ll plan an exit route

From the wc team to fourmium

and then I’ll be more calma

[lavish parcel]

do I really want to use all my FTs tonight when we could get arsenal news

[valid ocean]

I’m probably going with this for wc10 since my TV is in ruins (thanks Mr. Quansah)

Getting back to Haaland with no Haaland is too difficult

[stone perch]

The risks are easily countered by Saka - Palmer - Salah or whichever premiums are enabled by his sale

• all the other assets returning

[slim bane]

@zenith jolt if I get someone other than Jackson for a two week punt

u think it’s worth?

[lavish parcel]

big mikey moore

[slim bane]

looking specifically at raul

[lavish parcel]

anyway good team that

I like the keepers

not a huge fan of the konate pick but I get it

and honestly

I'd want to have one of the mid-priced fwds

they will be template soon, I feel, you want to be able to get to one easily

but I imagine that means no haaland or no salah

[valid ocean]

Yeah that’s a worry i have but it’s hard to get to them with Haaland

[slim bane]

2.7M ITB to get Jackson for raul

[slim bane]

@hallow anchor

[hallow anchor]

I've had havertz most of the season but I don't particularly like our fixtures for him

[slim bane]

Ode is coming back so I can hold a bit

If I do wc gonna sell bank the .1 and get him back tho

hopefully he drops if not I look fucking stupid

-100.6 rn

[hallow anchor]

Even after the IB

Who knows what united will be like

[slim bane]

His aerial presence will be crucial

[lavish parcel]

it's at home though

you don't really lose at home to united

should be ok

[hallow anchor]

I'd back arsenal to get 8-10 points there but I expect mostly low scoring

[lavish parcel]

west ham is a prime fix

they can get beat

[cedar hull]

New manager bounce for west ham by then tho

[copper hinge]

Chances either Gabriel/Gvardiol plays? Missed all news

[valid ocean]

Apparently Gabriel is looking better but it’s not known whether he’ll play or not. It’s more likely than not though

Gvardiol should be alright though i think

[copper hinge]

That's all i need, perfect

[slim bane]

WC here we goooo

[pulsar chasm]

show draft

[slim bane]

remaining moves to activate wc:

• choose keeper pairing
• choose one of raul / cunha to drop for kai

[pulsar chasm]

verbruggen and fabiasnki

and cunha

how do you feel about nunez as a placeholder for havertz?

[trail forum]

you consider kelleher in pairing

[slim bane]

or placeholder for jackson

[trail forum]

and what made you WC this week as opposed to 12

[slim bane]

i alr made 3FTs

i have another 3 to make + 2 luxury FTs

[pulsar chasm]

you want jackson in 12, darwin has soton that week

[slim bane]

if i wc12 then i lose the 3FTs

[slim bane]

kelleher does mean i lock out of third pool tho

[slim bane]

also also havertz dropping

sell havertz for 8.1

buy back at 8.1

[pulsar chasm]

don't think kelleher fixtures make him worthwhile

[slim bane]

i can run
4.4 pickford
4.5 sanchez
fab 5.2 (onana?)

or fab pick/sanchez

[trail forum]

but if you can get a second keeper who rotates well

he can "cover" trent

[slim bane]

alr have konate

dont need to "cover"

[trail forum]

but you dont need konate

in that case

[slim bane]

but i want konate

[pulsar chasm]

i get the reasoning but not keen on it personally

[slim bane]

missed the train on vvd

sadge

he rose but konate didnt that some bs

[pulsar chasm]

also would you not get van den berg over THB

[slim bane]

funds tied up in THB

[pulsar chasm]

how much is he?

[slim bane]

4.1

[pulsar chasm]

lmao how is he that

i dont think the brentford fella drops

hes close to a rise iirc

[slim bane]

ill consider it

[pulsar chasm]

kelleher works with verbruggen

if you want to drop konate and fabianski

as rallen said

[slim bane]

not inclined to get kelleher

[pulsar chasm]

i wouldn't be either but it's an option

[slim bane]

4.4 pickford
4.5 sanchez
fab 5.2 (onana/pick/sanchez)

4.4 being hendo or rams

4.5 being flek or verb

[pulsar chasm]

could get a proper 8th attacker for sangare if you wanted

your TV is miles better than mine

[slim bane]

idk if i want darwin

also cunha as placeholder for jackson?

but then its kinda defeating wc intentions of saving FT

[pulsar chasm]

yeah you could

[slim bane]

cos im just planning FTs in the future

[pulsar chasm]

after gw12 there isnt loads to do with fts

and you have 3 iirc

[slim bane]

yea

hmmmm

i did consider nunez

just idk how good he will be

[pulsar chasm]

i get why you wouldnt want him completely

hes jyst a nice havertz pivot

[slim bane]

i can just keep funds itb

[pulsar chasm]

i did ask why jackson so early but united isnt a bad game

and you can just firm arsenal

[slim bane]

havertz raul cunha and then raul to jackson?

plausible

[slim bane]

yea guess ill swap

bye thb sweet prince

[pulsar chasm]

think you wouldnt want to sell jimenez

[slim bane]

between him and cunha

ill see the mood by gw12

[pulsar chasm]

yeah

[slim bane]

anw jackson didnt rise

so i can wait

whereas raul and cunha rose

[pulsar chasm]

idk what timezone you are but make sure you wake up

[slim bane]

7pm deadline

i have 9 hours to tinker

but im done tinkering

just need the gk pairing and vdb

[pulsar chasm]

this was the rough wc12 i built btw

think you get very very very close to that with wc10 + your fts

[slim bane]

yea

keepers aside thats konate lewis cunha vs digne mazraoui jp

[pulsar chasm]

you can get the defenders too if you wanted

[slim bane]

yea ofc

[pulsar chasm]

keepers are jarring tbh

verbruggen is the one ive defaulted too

[trail forum]

so are defenders ngl

[slim bane]

i could run verb sanchez

[pulsar chasm]

may be a better option ive not looked too hard

[slim bane]

but literally the three games i need to cover for sanchez

verb has shit fix

[trail forum]

also brighton are not a great defence at all

[slim bane]

similar with pickford its that stretch from 15-18

[trail forum]

anyone rotate well with sels

[pulsar chasm]

fabianski pairs with him well if you have any interest in playing him

[pulsar chasm]

yeah the thing with sels is he isn't amazing for saves

but he's in a good defence so

[trail forum]

yeah have to choose a really shit defence and farm saves and a kinda mid defence with no saves

[slim bane]

oh fuck thats it then

lets goooo

in b4

areola comes back in

[pulsar chasm]

fabianski seems to rotate best with sels, pickford and verbruggen (keepers below 5 mil)

again if you have any faith in playing him

[slim bane]

hopefully he keeps the spot

did we hear anything about why areola didn’t play

[pulsar chasm]

no we didn’t

loputegi may be sacked soon though

new manager may play areola or fabianski could just be dropped

why i prefer verbruggen because id trust fabianski for next 2 and then you can just play him afterwards

[trail forum]

https://x.com/whujoe/status/1852445392329142578 if its anything, lot of WHU fans in replies are keen on fabi starting

Joe Davis (@whujoe) on X

My XI for tomorrow:

Fabianski
Wan-Bissaka
Todibo
Kilman
Emerson
Alvarez
Rodriguez
Souček
Summerville
Bowen
Antonio

[trail forum]

you consider foden for saka placeholder 😂

[cedar hull]

How tf did saka rise

[trail forum]

fpl is rigged

[slim bane]

@supple steeple rate my wc

[supple steeple]

dont like konate or jimi

I'd wait with Pickford until we see how we play with Branthwaite fit

just get Winks over Dibling

[slim bane]

damn why not

[supple steeple]

dont need to explain konate I think

jimi isnt going to keep it up

[slim bane]

Raul is my placeholder for Jackson

[supple steeple]

yeah I figured

why not Wissa?

[slim bane]

alr have boomo ig

idk

just need 1 placeholder

also raul i alr caught his price rise today

wissa i missed

so if theres any chance of a double rise i get i figure its raul

[slim bane]

kinda need to lol

arent pool's fix decent

anw worst case ship him out for RJ or dalot etc.

[supple steeple]

no bps

no gi

just 5 or 6 points

every third game realistically

[slim bane]

yea idm thats better than mf porro

[trail forum]

defender options are so grim

besides lewis and RAN

[supple steeple]

I like Digne

(from gw12)

[trail forum]

im sworn to not ever own him again

[supple steeple]

lol

yeah, he's a meme

[trail forum]

he does get hooked early tho for cleans

dalot tho

👀

watched blackbox and scared into wildcarding now

[supple steeple]

yeah me too

[slim bane]

why

[supple steeple]

Eze out so I might aswell

[trail forum]

because i couldnt afford cunha, have injured eze and wanted to wc last week

[slim bane]

damn

[trail forum]

now its 3:15 and still trying to make team

[supple steeple]

I could do a -4 and get Saka, Salah, Cunha and Wissa for Brennan, Eze, Haaland and Havertz

but idk

sideways

[trail forum]

2fts isnt too bad

id have to take a hit to move eze to some shite like garnacho

so think imma just WC

and on blackbox mark decided to move to salah

and i got FOMO

• would have to start rogers next 2 which aint ideal

[cerulean cape]

Salah and cunha are too popular this gw, they are never scoring points

[trail forum]

True time for foden and haaland haul

And taa 15 pointer

[thin jasper]

im scared of haaland again

do i switch captaincy

no i will stick to salah im gon be right this time

[slim bane]

merry-go-round

🔒

ffs shouldve gone wissa

fits colour scheme better

my wc is ruined

[cedar pine]

Still don't get havertz over jackson

[slim bane]

either one

im backing my boi

[cedar pine]

Havertz better long term of course but jackson doing really good rn

Fair enuff

[slim bane]

united with a new manager and arsenal tho

i think similarly tough

anw im bringing the other in gw12

wonder what the points swing on that will be

[cedar pine]

Our team diff is basically i have haaland and Rogers while u have havertz and saka lmao

Structure wise

[slim bane]

yea previously it was haaland rogers v salah jackson for me

i went with the latter but 2 week delay on jackson

so i got raul first

[cedar pine]

Think I'm getting konate in this week so it's basically gvardiol vs gabriel, wissa wood vs cunha raul

All same prices ish

[slim bane]

yea ard there

[cedar pine]

Your extra money gets you lewis on the bench

That's the only diff

I guess might be some money left over on the havertz plus saka side too

[slim bane]

2.6M to get Jackson

[lavish parcel]

oh ayy did it

[slim bane]

yessirrrrr

[lavish parcel]

looks like the only way I can get palmer is to take haaland out

[silent jasper]

same for me, but I am holding it off for now

[kind egret]

is it palmering time

[lavish parcel]

I loved that part when fish said “it’s palming time” and then he palmed all over the place

[kind egret]

[lavish parcel]

mbeumo cap in 11

[silent jasper]

Palmer vs United and Arsenal next 2, maybe he will still score some goals so might want to get him?

[lavish parcel]

now seems a good time to do some surgery

my hope is to start rolling transfers from next week or the one after

so I can hit 4 or 5 frees by christmas

that will be powerful

[supple steeple]

@slim bane Haaland, Brennan, Eze and Porro -> Cunha, Salah, Saka and Ait-Nouri for a -4 yes/no?

[slim bane]

Right is template-ish so I’d say yes

Esp eze injured and Johnson may not start

[supple steeple]

ye

ffs

my hits always go bad

gonna jinx you all with it

this is so close to what my wc12 would be so I might as well have wildcarded this week

fuck

[cerulean cape]

Still can

Not too late

Also how did you go from saving 5fts to a -4 lol

[supple steeple]

yeah, but half of the players have risen

[cerulean cape]

Gonna make my moves now

Cba

[lavish parcel]

I've gone as far forward as gw20 and cannot find a single time where I would want to get haaland back

[supple steeple]

gw18 looks tasty

EVE lei WHU bre ips

[lavish parcel]

but who do you sell?

[supple steeple]

yeah, true

palmer saka and salah all have great fixtures then too

[lavish parcel]

like, the landscape could change a lot by then with injuries and new assets and stuff but

I like it tbh

we haven't had a season like this in years

where there are multiple premiums you can trust to captain in any week

[cedar pine]

yeah i remember the last threemium season

its like 3-4 years ago

good times

lmao Fplreview wants me to sell Salah to Foden so I can get trent

go home fplreview ur drunk

[lavish parcel]

any algorithm that still recommends foden now is probably overfit on historical data

he's barely done anything this season

[kind egret]

foden has been a fondant instead in the buffet

anyways i want to take out trent soon

probs after Southampton

[lavish parcel]

deadline's an hour later than usual

clocks don't move where I am

[kind egret]

when does daylight savings begin

[cedar pine]

week or two ago

[kind egret]

in the US specific

[lavish parcel]

in north america it's tomorrow

[kind egret]

😭

imma have to stay up at 10:30 instead

📉

#fpl_chat message

crazy how this was 4 years ago

[cedar pine]

fake news

covid time doesnt exist

[kind egret]

[little delta]

andy bought salah 😭

[cedar hull]

This gw is gonna be fucked

[cedar pine]

capping Haaland then

[little delta]

Salah blank, haaland brace

everyone’s move is mudded

[slim bane]

[lone glade]

i get a green this week?

i need it

[slim bane]

ffs

not a differential anymore

[lone glade]

dont have salah

he gonna kill

need the haaland haul though

[kind egret]

is Palmer haul

[slim bane]

i have him

cant believe

im on pickford again

🤡

[kind egret]

I'm captaining Palmer

[slim bane]

^

[cedar pine]

welcome to the team

[little delta]

haaland is defo scoring a hat trick

[cedar pine]

I hope so

Would be very important for my fpl season since so many have now spunked their fts on getting him out

[silent jasper]

Who would you guys bench between Gabriel and Mykolenko?

[lavish parcel]

I should motd challenge

is motd free to watch or do I need a subscription to something?

[cedar pine]

I'm gonna miss the 3pm games but I ain't got discipline to not check scores lmao

[lavish parcel]

ironically, the next of the top 4 teams to have a really bad run is... city

from 23 to 27

but whatever, that's ages away

[little delta]

Is Son to Saka worth it? that’s the only transfer i’m thinking of

Or Solanke to Cunha

[cedar hull]

Solanke to cunha is worth it but youve missed a 0.2 swing

[little delta]

I know that’s why I don’t want to do it

What about Son to Saka

[cedar hull]

Gw12 i think

Would be better

[little delta]

also want to mention I only have 1 ft so

[trail forum]

think son next two fix are defo better

[little delta]

Id be better off rolling

[trail forum]

but idk if son is nailed to start

[little delta]

just a little doubt he might not start this gw

[cedar pine]

if you didnt take a hit this week i reckon you've got a 2-3 points headstart on the field

son plays 60-70 imo this week

[trail forum]

he was back in training anyway

probably does start

but likely get 60ish mins next two weeks

[little delta]

60-70 i guess

I might captain vs Ipswich

i’ll be happy with 2 starts in the next 2 and 70 min then i’ll sell

[lavish parcel]

if you have son next week you have to cap him

[little delta]

that’s what im doing

[trail forum]

WC active

[lavish parcel]

that was fast

looks great

don't like konate but I understand it

[trail forum]

yeah me neither but every replacement is somehow worse

or more expensive

surely start raya over fab this week

[silent jasper]

Would you prefer Sels/Verbruggen/Sanchez over Raya?

[trail forum]

yeah then gabriel over konate

but couldnt find a keeper pairing i like

[lavish parcel]

call me fabrizio because it's time for the here we go

[trail forum]

and ive had raya since gw1 and its worked out well

[trail forum]

gonna just stick to it \

[cedar hull]

Probably similar cs odds

[lavish parcel]

seen some people doing verbruggen and fabi

[silent jasper]

Seems risky going without Palmer this week

[cedar hull]

Checking if im missing anything, just rolling for now
