Doubt he’s ready for that

#

Wait for emirates cup

latent depot
#

At this point I'm not picking him

broken patio
#

I'm absolutely picking him if he's fit

#

Now that I'm sold on fh6 wc13

If gab out hm

Defcon Gooner

#

Holy shit

#

Double forest defence

cedar hull
#

Nothing wrong with that

#

Even if they lose 4 cleans they're still good

broken patio
#

Just gonna wait and see if he's fit

#

So much stuff to wait for now ffs

#

Gabriel fitness
Gakpo mins (Liverpool signings)
Tark fitness
Gyokeres mins
Watkins move?
Isak move?
Wissa move?

Pep roulette hasn't even been that bad in the past few seasons

And there's always players who are immune to it

Or almost immune

Can someone screenshot this exchange for future reference

broken patio
#

I get the concern and it is a valid concern

hollow ermine
#

Not like you’re tripling up on city anyway

#

You get your gvards and your haaland and you leave

acoustic edge
broken patio
#

Exactly

#

And it's still a fix swing for Liverpool and Newcastle and stuff anyway

#

Who plays CAM without Eze?

best 6m def to start?

Fairs

quick dawn
#

rogers and gyokeres or evanilson and watkins

pale tiger
#

Prob Rogers and Gyok

hollow ermine
#

Gyok rog

#

I’ll honestly say just get both rogers and watkins and wait for gyok

quick dawn
#

maybe idk why but i only want 1 villa player

broken patio
#

Bezzo got that anti bias

cerulean cape
#

Wait fh6

#

Because I have triple forest anyway

#

They have Sunderland then

#

Actually my whole team is good for fh6 if no arsenal

broken patio
#

Ah I only have 1

#

And 0 city

#

And I'll have arsenal

cerulean cape
#

I have qatkins too

#

And maybe rogers

#

Wc7-8 is probably what I'm doing

#

Figure out fh sometime

#

Think I'm set clueless

#

Took out Miley, didn't realise he's only 19

#

Have devenny now just in case he gets minutes after Eze sale, but it's temporary anyway cos Gyokeres out GW3 frees up funds to upgrade that spot to whichever 5.0 starts CAM for Palace

quick dawn
#

that bench though

cerulean cape
#

He was out for a bit last year

cedar hull
cerulean cape
#

I agree devenny probably also gets mins

cedar hull
#

Devenny will get mins but takes a palace spot

#

Eze/mateta/lacroix/Munoz all options that id consider

#

And yes like jazzy said Miley is good for mins this season

quick dawn
#

i mean off the bench is only 1 point

west marsh
#

Any changes necessary?

cedar hull
#

Sell one of haaland or Salah, the rest of that team is woeful

#

Can't have a 5.5 keeper with them both at least

wanton whale
#

Im not set on Gyok

#

but until i see our lineups when hes available hes there

#

awb probably shouldnt be as well

cedar hull
#

Tark and 4.5 better than Pickford awb

#

Other than that I rate it

wanton whale
#

no 4.5s i fancy

pulsar chasm
#

these forwards fucking suck man

wanton whale
cedar hull
pulsar chasm
#

so not even got to the drafts properly

#

probably decide on some chips and then make a proper team

wanton whale
#

maybe ill go kelleher

quick dawn
#

solanke, gyokores, watkins, wood, evanilson, welbeck, strand larsen

cedar hull
#

Petro is right there bro

wanton whale
#

bou defense with no zarbaryni idk

pulsar chasm
#

if bmouth lose zabarnyi not touching that defence personally

#

late

#

but he might stay

wanton whale
#

ez snail

cedar hull
#

Even if zab goes, they have senesi and will sign a cb

pulsar chasm
#

hill (4.0) would start if zab left and they didn’t sign anyone

cedar hull
#

Lucumi hopefully

quick dawn
#

araujo could start

wanton whale
#

might get sanchez and another 6m

pulsar chasm
#

yeah senesi is good which is why i’m not concerned by no huijsen

wanton whale
#

or lacroix

cedar hull
#

Oh wait senesi left footed, nvm on lucumi then

#

But they'll probably sign someone

#

Im personally not worried about bou defence tbh, their recruitment is smart

#

Truffert is a great signing

wanton whale
#

Gakpo 2eo 😈

nvm fix clash

Don't know why he's benched

why do bou have to play pool gw1 ffs

Ok

it will crash minimum 50 times gw1 deadline

his open play threat is quite good

why do i bother

wanton whale
#

jp took pens at brighton 🔥

pulsar chasm
#

jp has shades of nkunku hype

quick dawn
#

I really think solanke is clear rn

#

The interesting ones are wether welbeck and jsl will be good

#

Jsl got 14 goals while cunha was the main man

oh, this is prob how Palace set up after Eze sale

nice of you to break the news that eze is definitely leaving

Probably last draft for a while

#

I’m tired boss

cedar hull
cedar hull
hollow ermine
#

Gakpo turns to someone else and I use the 1.0 to upgrade Bowen or vdv to Tark or even lacroix to vvd

#

Either way route to gyok and balls is there

cedar hull
#

dont get arias hype tbh

#

other than that its alright

pulsar chasm
#

that’s why

cedar hull
#

people not going bournemouth due to pool away but going city at home for wolves

hollow ermine
#

He’s bench anyway

#

I was told not to start 4.5’s weekly

#

4.5 def that is

#

So I’m rotating and if necessary I have routes to vvd or tark

cedar hull
#

if you downgrade arias and vdv you can get isak for watkins if you want

latent depot
#

@cerulean cape what's Sarr's adjusted points?

#

lol Sarr is crazy

#

he actually hits xG for his career

cedar hull
#

mateta, sarr, munoz stonks

#

cant go devenny fs

latent depot
#

his 3.9ppm is misleading because he was a sub for 8 games at the beginning of the season. if you approximate those sub mins as 2 starts, you get 145 points from 32 starts at 4.53ppm/0.389vapm. If you give him 2 goals so that he gets close to xG, that jumps to 4.84ppm/0.438vapm

#

short version: Sarr is better value than he looks because his points are skewed by 8 sub apps at the beginning of the season

hollow ermine
#

If I’m getting a shit bench it’ll mean I have to play 4.5 at times long term

#

Not ideal

latent depot
#

just get Christie 1st bench, rest of bench can be minimums

cedar hull
cedar hull
hollow ermine
latent depot
#

well it's 30 starts, 8 subs, approx 32 starts so just deduct 6 appearance points 🤓

hollow ermine
#

But I can’t play VDV weekly

#

So I rotate

latent depot
#

wait why not

#

oh, van de ven, I chose to read that as VVD

#

Esteve covers GW2 away to City, so why can't you play VDV the rest of the time?

#

I mean, that's surely the whole point of picking 4.5 Spurs + Esteve

#

4.0m def meta lmao

#

If they end up being like last years promoted teams then jfc

broken patio
#

Thankfully I have Brighton bias so welbz is every team and I don't have to think about him

#

The other one is tough though

#

I'll probably start with either Watkins or Bowen (probably just depends how much money I can spare) and then can easily move to anyone else from those 2

barren geyser
#

ez isak watkins double up

cerulean cape
#

I have no issues with fwds

#

I like wood, watkins, solanke/bowen in that order

#

The rest suck sure

#

But those 4 are good

pale tiger

is sels + murillo + wood too risky

Cursed from 24/25

Fuck him and sarr

cedar hull

sarr was such a trap last season

but double any defense this early is always a risk

Most people have wood in your welbeck spot tbf

latent depot
#

Wood had shit xGI90 and doesn't even play 90 sobbusiness and overperformed xG by 4 goals

I'm so ready for welbz to get randomly benched in random weeks, with 0 warning from hurzeler

I like Sanchez a lot

don't need to WC Liverpool assets when I'll be running 2 of them all season shrug

Then all I have to do is transfer in a cheap fwd and I'm ready to BB

Just not even considering Haaland because I'm not even considering no Salah

So this is the elite

that depends, last year we had murphy train and triple 4.0 rotation, so that says otherwise pepela

i couldnt remember who adopted that other than ayy tbf

and he's pure vibes pretending to be analytical

cedar hull
latent depot
#

Ayy pasted a draft with permastart Baleba earlier

#

I looked up Christie cbrits vs Wolves from last season and was disappointed. wanted to see if it was worth benching Solanke

#

he played 90 and got 10, and 60 in the other fixture and got 5

#

so no DCs prob in GW2

broken patio
latent depot
#

very likely for DCs in GW3 and GW5, he didn't play a full game vs Brighton tho. I'm looking to play him GW3-5 as cover for VVD, Forest CBs, Everton CBs

acoustic edge
#

wait drop the draft

latent depot
#

what

acoustic edge
#

as in post your draft here

#

for context

wanton whale
broken patio
#

Benching premium CBs for a 5.0/5.5 mid just feels so risky
If one of these cbs pulls off a clean in a tough fix (which all are capable of doing) you're looking at CBIT plus bonus points

#

And the clean points

#

That's an 11 pointer if 3bps

latent depot
#

Gyokeres to Newcastle forward GW3 frees up £ to upgrade either 4.5 mid or 4.5 forward so that I can bench both NFO/EVE CBs GW4/5

latent depot
cedar hull

solanke to 7.5, tark to milenkovic is fine if thats the case

But also we'll try and convert you

Idk, I think I just have bench paranoia

bruno having SUN gw7 is deeply annoying

broken patio

Arsenal's fix get amazing from gw7 onwards

oh yeah fs hes eye test, love him as a player

youd just expect them to be a lot higher

if hes on pens man hopium

imagine they went for wissa

Wissa would be great at Villa or Newcastle, but I'm not interested if he stays

wissa wants CL

doubt he goes

hollow ermine
#

I’m tactical though

cedar hull
#

he said he wanted newc move badly because hes 29 and its like his last chance for cl football

hollow ermine

But that’s all dependent on who you’re talking too

if son goes i think he should shrug

hollow ermine

Watkins immediately becomes nonsense unfortunately

newcastle bidding 25m is a joke tho icl

When buying players now, you need to consider how much you can get when you sell them

cedar hull
cedar hull

he has 1+1 year

Then contract length but that’s here n there

Even though Villa won’t sell for what United are thinking

idky united are getting a striker though personally

they should have spent big for baleba tho

cedar hull

nah

hollow ermine
cedar hull

right player, but brighton would demand 100m

personally think they should go for stiller

# cedar hull with 5 back youre likely to get 3/5

What does the numbers on cs probability look like, cause like let’s say you play a fully premium defence, you’d expect 2/3 cbit per week as well

So is the gap between between 2/3 and 3/5 that large cause they’re equal

I need another exit strategy for Gyokeres

hollow ermine
cedar hull
# hollow ermine Yes

ah well, attackers all got nerfed, and the cheap options seem worse than usual, and a 5.5 def got the same if not more points than most 7.5 fwds last season. its just optimal value over 3 back with the mid/fwd options being so limited.

They've rested up now

#

Everyone's fit

thin jasper
#

maybe

#

i have chris wood so i hope so haha

broken patio
#

They're gonna fall off a cliff again with Europa this season

#

And they had barely any injuries last season

#

A few ones this season with added midweek games and they're gonna die, we've seen it a million times before

latent depot
#

Chris Wood is so mid once you filter out the relegated teams (relevant for GW1-4) cos if you're only targetting GW5-6, well then get him in GW5

broken patio
#

But.... We're picking forest players for the start,before that happens

hollow ermine
west marsh
thin jasper
#

like most of the midtable prem teams are still good teams

broken patio
#

Hmmmm solankes opening fix are so juicy

#

But it's fucking solanke

latent depot
thin jasper
broken patio
#

The day Brighton had 0 midfielders

thin jasper
#

but like Brentford Palace West Ham with two home games is still pretty good

latent depot
#

basically, if Wood scores only 1 goal after GW1-3, his price is falling before Arsenal GW4. So if that's a likely scenario, then you're just going to lose money by picking him GW1 as he's not viable GW7 onwards

hollow ermine
thin jasper
#

but don’t really like any of the other forwards much more

orchid plank
#

@broken patio thoughts on Ayari as an asset?

latent depot
#

agreed, forwards are so fucking dead

cedar hull
#

ffs dont get him started

latent depot
#

Ayari is Beef's new Barco

#

I looked him up and didn't understand tbh

broken patio
#

I love him

#

I mean

thin jasper
#

for me he’s still one of the better forward options, and there’s pretty low uncertainty around him too

broken patio
#

Don't get him

latent depot
#

he only started like 14 out of 18 games

broken patio
#

Baleba will be better

#

But I love him

latent depot
#

also he's 5'7 and won't survive in this league

#

Barco was also 5'7

thin jasper
#

will Baleba get a meaningful amount of attacking returns or is he capped at 4-5 points a game

broken patio
#

He's proving himself to be essential to hurzelers style of play

latent depot
#

guys, if you're 5'7 Beef might put you in his FPL team

orchid plank
#

only 5m aswell

broken patio
#

Btw our best player in preseason has been O'Riley

#

Idk what that means for the mins of Rutter and co

latent depot
#

yes Baleba is very capped, bro takes 1-2 shots from distance every game. his 3 goals last season all hilariously came from the few games he didn't play at DM

thin jasper
#

yeah not worth owning then

broken patio
latent depot
#

damn, his only assist also came from CM

#

so yeah, literally 0 GIs from DM

pulsar chasm
thin jasper
#

i’d rather spend 0.5 on a 4.5 defender and upgrade my midfield than have baleba on the bench

latent depot
#

I looked at Baleba's cbrits vs GW2-5 opponents and he got more YCs than 12+ cbrits

#

last season

#

Christie is a no brainer

thin jasper
#

i’m so out of it omg norgaard plays for Arsenal?!!

latent depot
#

yes, Brentford going down

broken patio
latent depot
#

no, but Lewis Cook is injured

#

Bournemouth have Cook/Christie/Adams/Scott for the 2 pivot spots. Cook is injured and Scott is returning from long term injury

broken patio
#

Hmmm

#

Ayari stays

#

I want apologies from every one of you when he scores gw1

@cedar hull Can I multiply a players VAMP x 38 to veiw how good a player at that price point?

broken patio
hollow ermine
thin jasper
#

is there a spreadsheet for defcons n stuff like that

#

or is it all paywalled

pulsar chasm
# broken patio

problem with a later wildcard this time is the afcon transfers

pulsar chasm
#

almost feels like you burn 2ft in 14/15

broken patio
#

Hmm

#

It is what it is

pulsar chasm
#

but i was looking for swings and i agreed with 13

#

and then watched the pras video

broken patio
#

Target 2 players for 13 14 and 15 then

#

And then use transfers

#

Before the 5 added

pulsar chasm
#

yeah fair

cedar hull
pulsar chasm
#

i’m not all for 1/2 week punts on a wc but it’s probably fine

hollow ermine
# hollow ermine

Do hitrate/100 x 38 to know how many games they hit cbit in numerically and multiply that number by 2

broken patio
#

If that's the situation

pulsar chasm
#

8 looked decent too

broken patio
#

Yeah around gw7 will be popular

#

There's an intl break between 7 and 8 too

hollow ermine
#

I’m gonna have to make an fpl folder atp

broken patio
pulsar chasm
#

chelsea games are weird around that time

cedar hull

tomi a certi member of this thread now

They're kept nice and safe there

pulsar chasm

probably hold palmer

bottom 3 get banned from the thread perhapscow

Ggs then

winner gets banned too

hollow ermine

So you guys down in #fpl_chat

Been insightful

cedar hull

winner gets a cameo from nigel farage

thin jasper

shit man these defensive contributions points got me on bruno fernandes

Bruno just looks a better asset than Saka

🤓

thin jasper

#

yeah i can’t see myself going without Tark

hollow ermine

Also multiplied by 38 instead of games started, but I used hit rate anyway

broken patio

Idek if I'll own tarkowski ngl

#

My eyes are getting turned by Munoz instead

thin jasper
broken patio
#

Maybe that's wrong

#

Yeah tark injury is a concern

#

So is Gabriel, it's shit

thin jasper
#

guys what do we think of reece james

cedar hull
#

gab out go munoz, tark out go lacroix, simple

hollow ermine
#

Man I have Cucurella currently

#

But he’s probably one of the worse 6.0

cedar hull
#

nah hes 3rd best

hollow ermine
#

Why get cucu when you can have vvd

#

If you have to pick 1 is what I’m trying to say

pulsar chasm
#

am taking cucurella over vvd personally to start the season

hollow ermine
#

I normally don’t like to pick Chelsea players but I like cucu and want to spoil myself

latent depot
#

wouldn't start with any Chelsea players other than Palmer, lack of match fitness

hollow ermine
#

These guys need players man

#

Lerma is in their cb depth despite playing a back 3 and diomande deal on hold

thin jasper
#

who’s the nerd pick at 4.5 for defenders

cedar hull
#

they got some good youngsters tbf

thin jasper
#

Konsa looks cheeks

cedar hull
thin jasper
#

ok so it all sucks

hollow ermine
#

Basically

cedar hull
#

richards is the best ig

thin jasper
#

then i’ll switch out Lacroix i guess

cedar hull
#

send team

hollow ermine
#

There’s pinnock to you realise he’s didn’t really play compared to the others and his numbers are inflated due to that

#

Plus Brentford being a worry anyway

cedar hull
#

yeah 4.5s arent good anyway

latent depot
#

honestly haven't even bothered to look at 4.5 DEFs cos there's so much value in more expensive DEFs

cedar hull
#

andersen not getting enough love but other than that its a desert

thin jasper
#

I got 0.5 and looking to switch out Konsa and Colwill

willing to downgrade my attack too

#

or my keeper

cedar hull
#

352?

#

bruno damn

thin jasper
#

352 or 442

latent depot
#

Konsa sobbusiness

acoustic edge
#

i like bruno

cedar hull
#

if youre fine for 442, id get rid of kluivert, and get a hefty 4 back

acoustic edge
#

colwill konsa lacroix to 5.5 5.5 4:0 ezpz

thin jasper
#

Bruno had pretty much the same ppg as Saka in a horrible United team and now he gets defensive points?

cedar hull
#

or just do that and keep 352

latent depot
#

I swear CCs are only mentioning Konsa due to name recognition from last season

#

bro has no DCs and Villa don't even keep many clean sheets

#

also minimal attacking threat

cedar hull
#

konsa mdc the casual 4.5 picks

thin jasper
#

guys chill konsa was in from the day 1 draft im just tryna make something better here

latent depot
#

and Villa's "good" fixtures are all midtable teams that will routinely score 1-2 goals against them

pulsar chasm
acoustic edge
latent depot
#

he means Guimaeres

thin jasper
#

i think i’ll just go big at the back and go 4-4-2

latent depot
#

you can go bigger

thin jasper
#

no i refuse to play 5 at the back

#

that is a lame ass way to play fpl

cedar hull
#

i wouldnt be so set on 5atb if there werent lame ass fwd options

latent depot
#

well 4 ATB is easy I guess, just put Esteve or Rodon on the bench

thin jasper
#

how am i going to cheer for five defenders every week that’s so boring

cedar hull
#

i never cheer for my players, i hate watch the assets i dont have

latent depot
#

you WILL cheer for every CBIT and you WILL enjoy it

pulsar chasm
#

5 at the back is really inflexible too

#

if you’re bullish it’s fine but

thin jasper
#

if i ever cheer for a tackle that wasn’t the 10th/12th one then ban me

latent depot
#

live chat is going to be insufferable with !cbit

thin jasper

#

nerds begging VVD for one more interception

hollow ermine

Game is terribly gone

thin jasper
pulsar chasm
#

it’s when tark gets his 12th tackle but he’s just got himself sent off 💔

thin jasper
#

imagine game clinching goal line clearance and the defender takes his shirt off

west marsh
cedar hull
#

tbf i can see him bag gw1, go up to 4.8 then do fuck all

broken patio
#

Ayari gonna be this seasons cheap mid that scores gw 1 2 3 in a row and everyone buys him then he never scores again

Free money for me

#

more of an impression on andrews

#

hes got charisma at least

#

and seems to have backing of the squad

pulsar chasm
#

i do hope he does well because he’s been promoted from within

#

quite a cool way of doing it

wanton whale
elder cargo
#

Let’s just hope he can resume where Frank left off stylistically and Wissa pisses off

#

Well to be honest I’ll take wissa talisman for 7.5 too

pulsar chasm
#

someone said wissa is staying now

elder cargo
#

Yeah he’s back at training I think

#

He thought he could pull an Isak

pulsar chasm
#

hes clear of isak pal dont get it twisted

#

my prince

west marsh
elder cargo
#

He’ll be good value at 7.5 or Thiago at 6.0 so it’ll be a win win

#

I’m leaving here with something

cedar hull

hedging your bets

pulsar chasm
#

gooning to cbit points is going to be so haram

cant wait for that vvd aura clearance

wouldn’t even be surprised

if the website is anything to go by...

slim bane
cedar hull
#

bet they give us the afcon transfers a week early or smth

pulsar chasm
#

lacroix is actually insane so annoying he’s at 5

#

corner threat on him too

slim bane
#

just get him in pog

pulsar chasm
#

him and williams probably the best at 5

cedar hull
#

palace defenders are annoying because they are some of the best in their own price category

slim bane
#

get in

pulsar chasm
#

yeah saw a draft with richards lacroix and munoz

#

outrageous

slim bane
#

I have two

#

Should I downgrade watkins for mateta kekw

#

And then invest in a 442

wanton whale
slim bane
#

Tempting

pulsar chasm
#

palace games at the start are pretty underrated for defenders

#

think they have 3 games in their first 6 with a decent chance of a clean

wanton whale
#

Munoz below 10 eo is amazing

pulsar chasm
#

but the other 3 games are horrid

cedar hull
#

i want gab out icl

#

i have munoz over him rn but if hes confirmed out thats great

wanton whale
#

oh i see

pulsar chasm
#

i’m still pretty high on gab

#

personally taking gabriel over tarkowski for example

wanton whale
#

i think we do keep a few cs but we will never be good for cbit

slim bane
#

Yea

#

But Gabriel has corner threat

wanton whale
#

main reason id consider

pulsar chasm
#

tarkowski has decent goal threat usually

slim bane
#

Looks good

pulsar chasm
#

he fell off last year though

#

my thing with arsenal is their defence is just so good like

#

can see them getting 2x the cs everton get

wanton whale
slim bane
slim bane
pulsar chasm
#

but yeah tark gets cbit in like 2/3 of games

slim bane
#

Could be christie

cedar hull
wanton whale
pulsar chasm
#

they are priced close too though

slim bane
#

And then he got injured so that’s that

pulsar chasm
#

no i mean tarkowski

lavish parcel

Bro wtf was that palace defence vs mainz

wanton whale
pulsar chasm
#

gabriel is still an insane box threat to me don’t think that’s really changed

Palace played starting 11 btw

slim bane
#

Was two separate teams

#

they had two friendlies in a row

lavish parcel
#

It was first team tho

pulsar chasm
#

also bijol is probably better than esteve at 4

#

but that’s also because i think we will struggle to break double digits

lavish parcel
#

I am talking about the earlier one

slim bane
#

Lacroix wasn’t in that team

#

Neither was guehi

lavish parcel
#

Why didn't guehi play

slim bane
#

He played second

lavish parcel
#

Oh my bad

cedar hull
#

lacroix scored btw

slim bane
#

Can he do that in gw1

lavish parcel
#

Idk

slim bane
#

Mud the cucu cs while he’s at it

lavish parcel
#

Hope he doesn't

#

I can honestly see Mateta scoring

He looked so sharp

mateta the goat
