couple of my group chats have started doing it already too and once 1 guy does it everyone does it and then midnight comes around and everyone does it again 
Wood or Raul maybe
wood or mateta
oh so its actually late for you
fair enuff then
you are excused!
ye play bruno
guaranteed 1 point 
happy new year!
Why did you bring Mateta to the convo
and me

Happy new year!
happy new year <3
Happy January first
Welcome to 2025 slackers(7pm here)
Happy new year

was the arsenal team getting down with the sickness posted by Bhuna
fab 0 pointer and JP 9 pointer off the bench
Happy new 2015 lads
86 with 2 left maybe 100 club 😉
Arsenal cs and some bonus gets me there
No 100 pointer for me
Yesss
How do people still have Mbeumo
very nice
Fucks sakeeeee
I get my CS wiped by the guy I sold weeks sgo
Piss right off Mbeumo
Him and Aina should have never been sold despite everything pointing towards their sale at the time
The man blanks for several GWs and we were supposed to keep him?
1 shot in 5 games?
Whatever
I'm not even pissed at his loyal owners
Just him and the circumstances pushing us to do the right thing
Jesus 
Green arrow gooning continues
Jesus carried
double soton next week 
Dont you have 5 ft 
We looking good here
fuck konstas
GW20 would've been a generational week if rogers was available 
Mbeumo since I traded him
Who would you play him over?
Bruno?
ye
I stopped my red arrow run
Very small green
Lost 9 points not playing pedro
We move
Same
Played maddo over pedro
Fucking dog of a pick was Maddo
Traded him for Gibbs white
my move this week was Pedro to Wood
i aint taking Rogers out, i could take Timber out but idk
Not Gabriel Jesus?
That's gotta hurt
Hit for Wood or Raul in the works
VVD -> TAA already done
thinking Bowen -> Eze and Cunha -> Watkins
My turn My turn
I'm above u by 1 point now 
Fairs
Yeh it does
Rogers to Gordon for a hit or nah?
Was on a perfect 1200 before the ars game
Made it a 1202
Yeh Everton and arsenal after the blank
I'll go amad to him in gw23 maybe
I have 2.3k itb atm
how has smooth caught up to me ffs
autopick suggests I buy gakpo and murphy 
low key... tempted
I was tempted by gakpo but then he came off before 60th min this gw.
In Arsenals last 12 games. They’ve conceded 9 goals:
⚽️ Mbeumo - 0.06xG
⚽️ Sarr - 0.04xG
⚽️ Jimenez - 0.04xG
⚽️ Emerson - 0.09xG
⚽️ Inacio - 0.05xG
⚽️ Neto - 0.02xG
⚽️ Nketiah - 0.05xG
⚽️ Mateta - 0.21xG
⚽️ Wan-Bissaka - 0.41xG
9 goals from
We're so lucky aren't we, double ars def owners 

defence? surely gabriel over andersen? what about Lewis? also do i just roll or does esr start?
smith rowe has played 22 minutes in 4 games get him gone
also never bench Gab
what do i do with esr? start lewis over him and roll or? is there anyone else. taking out esr leaves me with 6.2 itb (originally 0.9)
Start Gab over him or Buy iwobi/ Sarr
either way start Gab over Anderson
pfftt gordon 7.4?
gab over andersen, jp to wood and esr to someone like sarr?
can’t afford
gg
wood short term surely i mean
-0.1

Jp to Wissa?
Bench him vs pool and his fixtures long term are really good
is wissa a differential?
like 10 owned why does it matter?
just wanna see the rank gain from it
but benching 30% owned gab lol
I wasnt gonna end up doing it
unless i do esr-> enzo
pedro-> wood
dont mind it
what did isak do 
He isn't anymore?
Huh
I mean I got Robinson for the Fulham fixtures
I can always double check for someone else
I'd say jackson's benchings are more predictable
He gets benched every midweek regardless
Raul still starts most games
I wouldn't mind, but sites like FFScout are already including him in their bus squad, implying that the rotation is nothing to worry about and he's still reliable
Granted the fixtures are the biggest factor as to why he's there in the first place and not his form
Gonna roll for once
Bruno stinking up the place but he's good after, also I intended to bench him this gw when I bought him but Rogers smh
LOL
Consistency...
icl if the pool game is off we've got 10 players
it what
can't afford to get both boomo and wood, I imagine boomo should be the higher priority
is that fair?
it just means I gotta chance raul or wissa
Don’t know if mbeumo is high priority with the coming games.
The priority is in who youre selling for each rather than the picks themselves imo
I was thinking to get him in 23. But as classiic says, that’s mainly cause of who I’m selling.
Fodeez yeah?
I'm looking at that too
Picked Fodeez when replacing Saka
Good to know there's Gordon and Mbeumo waiting should he flop
When*
Can't upgrade my sub 6.0 midfielders for them though
TAA sucked all the budget
And I went with Sels - Flekken
Arguably the best keeper pair for the weeks to come
Is it time to sell Jackson?
He gets the chances but still misses
If he starts his chances of scoring are always high
Not at all
bro said might
Heheh
Whys smooth muted
Pogged a potential injury for the Valencia GK in the football chat 
Smooth brained
That's sick
You’re higher than 60k, no? 
No 
So there’s another kvarzito in fplcord league? 👀
Wait wtf
I created that account and realised I didnt want to play 2 accounts and just left it after making 1 transfer
And its 17k lmfao
Dayum your ghost team is outscoring almost everyone
Maybe I should give up this active manager thing
Let's see the team
6th in the league or something
Lol
Fuck sake pool game better be happening
What happened? 
Lots of talks about it not going ahead due to weather
Hopefully not
Big game like this should carry on 
Praying
what to do what to do what to do
cry
PREMIER LEAGUE RULES - from JUNE 2022 so unsure if they have been changed…
Subject to paragraph 13, below, permission to postpone a League Match will only be considered where the applicant Club has either:
a. Fewer than 10 outfield Players and one goalkeeper from those
Could u imagine no pool or Newcastle
FYI(there were only 7 ppl in training yesterday according to somebody)
Who's is the team here?
Spurs
So the spurs vs Newcastle could be called off should we decide to postpone it
Isak hall salah taa I'm 100% gonna get finessed
same here
surely I bench Aina over Robinson right? 
Have TAA and Gabriel for the other 2 def
Aren’t they expected to field the youth players then
depends on how many youth academy players they have registered to their PL squad I think?
Ngl i rather the game get suspended
I only own Isak, and I don't want to bring in more newcastle in case the game gets called off
But this game will be a bloodbath if it goes ahead
Bros cooked if Liverpool game is off on another level
Wait whats going on there
Hold on whats going on for the Liverpool game?
I just got TAA in for -4 earlier this week 
We won’t know before tomorrow.
theres actually no way the spurs newc game gets postponed right
what kind of excuse is injuries
holding transfers until the last minute
Yeah so why is everyone panicking then
Cause we’re fpl managers
Ik Gabriel out is risky but over 3-5 gws I think this makes sense
Except Gabriel is someone you keep for the whole season not just a few gws.
Just can't see where the points are for Amad even with the good fixture after this gw.
Johnson has been good but can I trust Tottenham with even more players out
Wc
Gabriel is a fine hold but his my only way to unlock funds. Eze seems a strong option
Myeah I just don’t like the hit.
Fair
I'll see if I have enough for Amad to eze and gab to Robinson
Think I'm just short
I could also start Johnson and delay the Eze move. Probably the better choice for sure
Yeah nvm that is way to go. Stuck with Joao Pedro but I have nobody to move him to
If you want to sell gabriel idk what to tell you
Probably start hall over Robinson now with the news right?
Only way to fund an Amad upgrade and get Robinson
The rest is tied up in Haaland
Why would I move Haaland
Cause you don’t have Isak.
That suggestion is crazy I can't lie
Haaland has West ham and Ipswich in the next 3. isak is good but he's not worth throwing that away
He is
I get the idea behind it but I think I'd be chasing Newcastle's past performances
No, Haaland out for those games is just incorrect
Still missing the point
Missing what point, I just disagree with that move
I get that isak is doing well but if Haaland scores a pen and this isn't even mentioned
when is deadline
No ones saying haaland wont do well, if we had unlimited funds wed all have him, but your combination of players is incredibly weaker due to this lack of budget, its called sacrifice
Which is why I'd prefer sacrifice Gabriel
Start harwood bellis or use a ft to get a defender in
But you gain near nothing from sacrificing gabriel
Hmmm
Joao still has a strong fixture in the next 2
Stubborn
7pm our timezone
not that Arsenal have been keeping many cs
Stubborn for keeping Haaland vs West ham at home. Unbelievable
Stubborn in the past for keeping Haaland. Sure, for West ham? That isn't stubborn
#fpl_polls message
Offtopic: who to start between Aina and Robinson?
Surely Robinson right 
And I'll still tell you that keeping Haaland vs West ham is correct. Regardless of the outcome
Do I spend an FT on getting a better defender in to cover timber
If Haaland scored the pen he'd be a chance for 3 in 3 with Ipswich to come
I would say its not a bad fixture but you could have utilised the funds to get Isak over the likes of JP I guess.
Haaland is not really essential right now unless he scores a ton.
Show team
I already had him. The issue of my season was holding him too long and fixing other issues and leaving the premiums.
This time around I'm not letting past outcomes cloud my judgement
3.6M ITB 2FT
I theoretically could get anyone for Johnson
Lowkey playing Johnson might be better than playing Harwood Bellis if he starts yeah
But Brentford at home seems hmm
Except pool and ars
Na no way Johnson starts
the pings im gonna get later when he does

Can understand but cant blame the rest when Haaland doesnt shows up yeah
Haaland still has two of the best fixtures possible. Can't take him out before that
Yeah just hold and find a route for Isak I guess asap
He's still a guy who scored 50-60+ goals in all comps.
And even with this bad run he could've easily had another 5-6 goals
With City's form this is gonna be difficult but yeah could happen who knows
I mean City created well against Everton so that helps the decision
Can someone help me on this? 
Been thinking who to start
Difficult
I think just buy castagne
Probably Robinson but there's no way I could bench Aina
Forest have been one of the most reliable for points this season
Robinson has higher haul potential and at home so you probably have to go him
Yeah thats the reason for this 
Who else are you starting..
TAA and Gabriel in defence
Could bench Elanga for Aina
Oh makes sense. You got Trent
Yeah not sure cause Elanga in a good run of form
Think benching Aina might be ok
Would have to accept his haul on my bench 
I want to move Johnson but think I'll wait for the option of Eze next gw
4 points + funds
I think we'll put up a better game than people expect against Newcastle tbh
Looks good
You are gonna be like FPLtips for having Haaland in your team by the way
Okay enjoy bellis 2 pointer then
hopefully
🥶
what’s the news
I found a way
Castagne, Semenyo and Isak in.
Gabriel, Johnson and Pedro out
-4
@cedar hull You like this?
I really dont like selling gabriel
But if thats your way to get isak in then
Its alright
Semenyo is not ideal but Haaland can go after Ipswich
At least Amad has Southampton ig
I was left at exactly 0.0
Maybe Murphy was correct but Semenyo vs Everton is interesting
I saw FPLtips doing ok without Gabriel for awhile
I guess he is lucky with his picks
Gabriel is good but I don't love the fixtures and forest have delivered just as well
I'd rather keep him 9/10 but I just won't move Haaland before West ham. They've given away too many big point games
Lucky?
I mean they had .43 xgc against villa and conceded
Forest been consistent and pretty good with defence tho
Not really lucky I guess
3 cs from these games for forest
And arsenal are conceding from 0.16 xgc
Its variance
I mean under 1 xgc is still good and Arsenal were lucky earlier in the season
Yeah im not saying it isnt
They have very good box protection
Like i said elite defence
It is fair to prefer gab. There's a reason he is priced the way he is
If Haaland was gone when he should've been. Gab wouldn't be the sacrifice this gw.
Arsenal defence is still better than Pool defence right? For xgi
vc on palmer or isak
Eze or Sarr. Who do you guys prefer?
Palmer safe option
I don't think I can get either in my situation but just curious
In case both get cancelled even if there's probably no chance
Haaland or Isak vc
Why would Tottenham vs Newcastle be cancelled
Read a little from here @prime plinth
nah surely not i have triple newcastle
We have enough
bunch of pussys if they do that
u guys played high line with 2 men down
surely they would not postpone today
yep
Yh prolly too late
Cant decide robinson vs hall
the double brent is soooo tempting but I don’t like that they have pool so soon with ibou back
It's too late they won't postpone now
Never understood the ode pick
Corners and pens, better goalshare
Better goalshare doesnt mean anything if theyre gonna be scoring less without saka
Spending 8.5m for pens 
Son and maddison out btw
Yeah dropped
lots of spurs fans want son stripped of captaincy
Øde > Gordon makes alot of sense someone make me do it
thinking Amad to Mbuemo for a hit myself
think I can survive without a hit but it's just down to deciding which palyers
or maybe Sarr since it will free up to upgrade Enzo to Semenyo
Sauce?
Who was the transfers out
Ouch
gordon and wissa could be good, but boomo is far better
boomo and wissa works but
fix aren't that good
Reckon JP > Wood could be good?
I did that yeah
Gordon instead of Mbeumo allows to upgrade Enzo to Rogers/Semenyo 
Can you not do Gordon and wissa instead
I’d much rather own Gordon icl
I did it
Boomo is better imo but it allows upgrades
Can i interest you in gordon and raul 
Wissa and Gordon are nice moves
maybe the extra money itb will be useful later
Assman chip

alright took a hit for Amad to Gordon cos i wont have a XI if pool manu is postponed

Spurs always do well in games we expect them to get thrashed
But I don’t think it’s possible with how bad their 11 is
Gordon and Wood 🔒
same transfers bruh
Who out
worse week for rogers to be out
Is that an ipad or smth
Yeh bro 😭
ipad kid 😭
lock
bruno man
Fuck off 🤣
shouldve hit for gordon
amad and evan out
Did you?
I own Bruno and triple Chelsea attack so this should be a red arrow if I’m not lucky
yuh
@jolly solstice
Should've started Collins over colwill 
Had to sacrifice Gabriel to get isak this gw
Looks like how I expected it to be
Haaland not being out weeks ago was the mistake but think I much prefer to keep him the next 3
Yeah the good thing is the only real threats are Trent and Gabriel. I don't think there's a real need for the higher priced mids. No wood ofc
Ideally you'd have iwobi instead of Semenyo but my team value is shattered
Hold Up... "no real threats" is a lie cause no Gordon is a big deal
I’m being patient for the southhampton at home game
they have Southampton next
But Saints are on a new manager bounce
if there wasn't a pool double coming up I'd be thinking about bruno
Does it really mean anything though
Need this pool game to go on
Either way If Bruno disappoints vs Southampton I buy Gordon after anyway
Can't be having oshea and colwill of the bench
A bit of snow shouldn’t stop fans
This is gonna get ugly real quick
Especially if they are stubborn enough to play the high line
biggest threats to me
fplgameweek?
get inn
gordon ezz
now Wood's turn
Would be nice if Pool mids such as Diaz or Jota can outscore Gordon tomorrow
if they start...
Ghost acc got porro and gordon 😂 top 11k rn
Not just me thats wondering why that goal got allowed
They change the hands rule so much I've just stopped questioning it
Surely no1 owns gordon😭
Bought him 2 hours ago
heard if the goal scorer touches with hand then straight disallowed
else they have to see and make a decision
if gordon somehow only scores 1 its chill as i wouldve needed a -4 to bring him in
still sucks
My mans 27 eo I'm so cooked
So glad I trusted my gut
finally no more regret post from you, what a good start in 2025 
Gakpo Diaz Salah, I think 
when did Smooth got Gordon in 
I like Gordon a lot but couldnt buy him
you got Diaz right?
I have salah palmer diaz mbeumo rogers
And i ain’t selling mbeumo v soton
Diaz to Gordon might be sideway just feeling that way
holy shit Salah is 199 eo 
Why would I sell diaz
I feel that the other 4 is undroppable tbh
Diaz might be the one to make way
Nah
bruno -4
oh nice, my irl friend did the same move as you too
But his move was on FT
It wont be worth it
Gordon 7 pointer so vs Bruno and 4 points we are chilling
Even if Bruno blanks only 1 point difference
Thank fuck didn’t cap isak
Bruno to gordon doesnt seem to be worth it just based on this week
Gordon needed 2+ returns imo
We will see
depends on how United play in 21
although Gordon has Wolves at home
Yeah ofc
I still think gordon is better than bruno, but i dont think it was worth the transfer
cold 7 pts for a hit 😭

you are currently set to gain 1 point over me 😭
if bruno blanks
cold
Bruno CS point 🔐
Bruno another red 🔐
Bournemouth assets are really about to clock out without any returns huh
Evanilson 👻
damn Tyghe back to 1m
His Haaland differential paid off
He might be essential soon @prime plinth
Gz on the pick
Øde benched, what a transfer out that was
Off for Raul
Easy transfer
Then Foden + Semenyo -> Gordon + Mbeumo
We're back at square one squad wise
Should’ve just sold Jackson the bum
piss off man
Oh my fucking god
Mbeumo what a king
Never in doubt
I guess this is jus how u play fpl, trust the proven players
Why every time I open this chat everything is negative for @stone perch
Guy doesn’t own taa
Fine
Fooodeeennnnn
What a wonderful time to be alive and play FPL!!! 
I guess my approach is a bit too cold and calculated
jackson off
I just got him in for -4 at the cost of Huijsen
Bou CS ongoing right now 
I hate bleeding points on some instances
Mbeumo for saka was a decent move

Might sell jackson for gordon
Despite good fixtures
Shit player
What a shit week
If only Wissa was an option
Really want him to replace Jackson
Isak, palmer mbeumo only played so far
Jesus/Wissa as a replacement for Jackson? 
just so you know jackson will def start scoring after everyone sells
i see this
Thats what happened when I sold him for Solanke in GW8 or something
same with every single player
for example porro
Next game I have joao pedro gabriel and raya
kinda wish i didn’t have Jp but whatever
He will be with Mbeumo in 3 GWs
It's between him and Raul for Evanilson
Bournemouth reeks
i could have moved jackson to literally any other option and would have been better off
thank god for timber tho
slipped down to 1m again
@lone glade its joever for me
how
tbf only had isak, palmer and jackson play today
oh
i had hall flekken palmer gordon isak sarr
small green arrow?
red
o
i took a hit from bruno to gordon
everyone really said to sell mbuemo for the fixture run…
19 from 3 nobody blanked 
we have not been taking operation target sou seriously enough
Omg mbeumo
Who do they have next
united 😭
United
cant wait to sell this jackson cunt

I have to start mbeumo now vs city
That was always a good fixture
Mbeumo messing up this week rip man
You guys playing wood v liverpool ?
Next gw
Probably, I’m benching Elanga tho
bros on 12
Only 2 played ur gw hasn't even started
only have had 2 played so
I've had 6 played my gws almost over
Same team but i have mbeumo lol
gab goal pls
points?
Fair
Shit
oof im on 33(-4)
Castagne or colwill for bus
I’m on 16(-4)
Next gw

And I have jp and verb asw automatic 2 pointers
How automatic 2 pointers
Brighton can score
JP captain tho
Brighton will hold arsenal
Just have a feeling
Choose one
For bus?
Bus team
arsenal shitting on em
Bus team for if u get hit by a bus u will still have played a good team
Then why do u have jp and verb
I mean Tbf 70% of the time my players only score on day2 of the gameweek
Praying
good fixs from next week and rogers was supposed to fill in but he of course got suspended
Rogers suspended made me play JP
Leicster were so shut
Shit
Fucking waste
yep same
Same for me
Rogers so annoying
rogers would have killed this leicester team
U have them?
Horrible apparently
That cross from kerkez is ridic
Ye
ye Jackson has kinda regressed back
Wallahi
That’s horrid lol from sarr and jackson
with how burn played today, I’m not
Jackson I'm pissed about sarr had a rough fix
I’m on a grey arrow with Isak, mbeumo and palmer
wtf
already selling him?
to afford hall
gw21 looks so good on paper
it does yeah
who’s he got next
newcastle
oh wait it’s in the screenshot
yah
kerkez has been amazing for me
I don’t want to bench next week
might get myself wissa
but on paper you do
he has city next game tho
city at home is a good fix but I wouldn’t buy now
soton was key
fpl really does come down to timing often
My main strength with my planning is buying players at the right time
For fixtures
I doubt it'll stop Mbeumo from scoring
kinda feels like the meta is shifting to 352 but rogers is such a good hold
agreed
if a raul or delap were a bit cheaper
salah, palmer, gordon, mbeumo, bruno
The meta has always been a back and forth shift between 343 and 352
i can afford that with delap, pedro, isak
Rogers as 5th midfielder is probably optimal
but will hold jackson for now
zamn
fixtures are good
agreed
And something like Isak - Wood - Raul/Wissa
i know, i made it a priority to hold him all season
2 home games
since wc4
Bruno is simply not worth it
i own already
palace away was never going to be easy
not selling
throw diaz into that when pool double announced
got wood starting vs pool next week
chelsea should recover form at home
it's fine for wood
no team has a good def
forest scoring won't be a shock
still one cs in 20 gws for my gk
wood is not playing next week if Nuno continues to do the stuff
Rogers or wood
Flekken - Sels might be a season hold
I'm so glad I fixed it
wood
I can now focus on the main team and maybe get the likes of Lewis out
Is it 2 weeks
Ye i guess so then
Mbeumo was so shit right up until I sold him
I sold him before the Newcastle game
Was so bad as well
Mbeumo to Semenyo for literally no reason
I’ll be on this next week i think
Sounds like a rogers haul to me
everton away?
ehhh
don't think he makes it into my team
only contentious one is wissa but even then, city at home is good
Nah i mean its when rogers is least favoured he hauls
double ars defense but played JP
lower the EO better the points ig
I’m actually done
The most cursed gameweek
Off all time
Sold JP for wood
WHO just wiped my double defense
@wanton whale should’ve listened to you wissa wise

or just not done jp out at all
19 points I’m probably below 200k now
watch wood 2 pts now
ive just wasted 2 FT ffs could’ve rolled to 3 and have more freedom
i cba
Indeed it’s so dumb man
lol
that was my thought and now I have thb -1 coming on
Ahhhh this game is fucking shit
i was at 100k rank at this point last year, this year im 1m 
and now haaland is getting back to the usual…
Can we cry together please
I’m below 200k now 😭
What tf happened to Chelsea
i expected it…
and we got so many ‘title race’ talks 
Gameweek rank 9.9m 🎉
maybe its time for Jackson to go
Triple Chelsea attack has killed me yeah
No fucking way jp got a pen this week
I benched him for Andersen

Jackson can gtfo
I might buy mateta or solanke
solanke away to arsenal then away to everton
doesnt exactly scream goals
if gakpo is benched in the cup
I would keep Jackson for the next 2 at least
I’m 900k but I’m starting to cook
Gonna be a mbeumo situation tho
Look at mbeumo before Newcastle
That's when I sold that fucker
Finally getting into it after just not caring for a few weeks after keeping haaland for too long
mbuemo is actually good tho
If you don’t own are you getting him now?
I already have
Happy I have
These fix aren’t even bad
name 3 worse fix ?
9+2+3 vs 6+7+2 not bad
I lost points going Rogers to Gordon cos it meant I benched jp
ye pen save could have been better
raya would be double digits and gab cs too
so like 13+6+0
If he saved and they kept the cs Raya would have 15+
back to back 9 pointer
glad I have him
I hate these random 10 day GW turnovers
I want to make early moves into Newcastle but I’m too scared to do it
Probably not worth going early for the sake of 0.2
I still have JP I just keep benching him
same lol
@cedar hull Turns out getting rid of jp for isak was the mistake. Not Gabriel 
I feel like I have everyone yet no one at the same time
Constantly getting red arrows
teams are very similar
with one arsenal def from most
palmer/salah/isak are 95% eo
so down to the other 6-7 players only where most are 30% owned too
holy shit my 2nd place minileague rival benched mbeumo and kerkez
Not a bad start but some big scores have prevented any sort of progression
Semenyo had .7 xgi or so but couldn't deliver
Benching Collins is a tough one but it was always possible. Was still correct to bench him
At least before the outcome
non hindsight probably collins over colwill cos he has attacking threat
but's it's w/e
how tf
