Once I copped that I seemed like a no brainier tbh, tho still terrified by Watkins
Watkins is Watkins though, I also think we're going to need that premium striker spot for Watkins/gyokeres/Ekitike/isak
im on so similiar to this, cant find the 0.5 so might do reijn to kdh but i hate having to start him every week
If so can do the opposite when jsl fixtures improve
Equally though if we're so huge on Watkins then why don't we all own Rogers too?
he's been in almost all of my drafts, would feel weird to suddenly drop him now.
And at that point I'm binning Bruno and going back to my old draft
I get you but that’s prob not how we should be playing
What we think of this team? I do have 0.5 itb so I can downgrade Bowen and upgrade pretty much any position
yeah probably. It's more so, if I don't start with him and he hauls, I'm gonna feel real bad
Top 3 fplcord messages
Rogers+2m
Vs
Bruno
Is a tough one for me
i mean its fine
Bruno defo scores vs us just saying
I would defo look to downgrade Bowen a bit and upgrade one of Anderson or reijnders
Ngl im just trying to take the risk on reindeer, and keeping 0.5 in case it goes wrong 😂
how will the 0.5 help
Watkins might not be on pens either but hes been insane in pre season
Bruno assist means haul at this point
bruno could be top 3 scoring mids icl
Watkins is scoring 2 a game
Vs a team the same world rankings as Leyton Orient
I can move bowen > 7.5 and go reijnders to sarr in GW4 or so
and sesko might no start gw1 so bruno might play in the 10 with mbeumo
3 games is enough to give reijnders probably
cunha up top
I want to like reijnders but idk
Against Arsenal 🔥
dont underestimate united at old trafford
Rogers is so annoying BC like if Watkins is so good then surely Rogers is too? No?
i do like wirtz over watkins rn
Can't have Rogers Watkins and Bruno though
Rogers is like leagues above anyone under 7m imo
I went to bruno after rogers got injured
you can 😈
He's back now though
cant realllly have wirtz bruno watkins either
without sacrifices
Okay, you can't have Rogers Watkins Bruno AND Salah wirtz Palmer
yet last season, people sold rogers at 5.5m because they didnt deem him good enough
is this gonna end in a non Salah draft? 
Wait
You can
If you play a 4.5 Def every week
In a 451
No evanilson pens
I didnt play palmer season. How long did it take people to realise he was set and forget
i just couldnt play a 4.5 every week
I think the 4.5 gk are bad
wish there was an actual decent cheap striker
Like, Rogers is better than JSL right?
just a 4.5 that played a few mins to make a 451 feel better
Aff is here
Enlighten us on how good/shit JSL is please
ye
Hmm
how likely do we think is rogers to start? Im between Gakpo + Verbruggen or Rogers + Sanchez
if hes fit i expect him to start
Join me
hes reported in training, that makes me believe hes fit
so hes expected to start out of 10
Now make Pedro into watkins
4 back structure is worrying but it looks good
4-5-1 managers eat cereal without milk for breakfast
ig
Hmm
Romero porro Neco 4.5 
Dont like no fullkrug flexibility though
im not playing a 4.5 with 4 back

feels wrong only having one pool if i go 3 back draft with watkins
2, Salah and wirtz
cope into not having watkins for 9 mil without pens and your problems will be solved 
he’s not a bad player at all, but we just look really bad
vs stoke we didn’t create anything, got a pen after larsen went off, hwang missed the pen and scored rebound
vs lens we had like 3 shots of note, one from larsen miles out (not on target), one from fer lopez (not on target), goal by guedes (left the club)
vs girona we had 2 shots on target i think which was arias goal and larsen in the box
vs celta we did nothing of note, arias had a good chance first half and that was it
i just think without signings we’re going to really struggle to create chances for larsen
feels wrong when ive had him the whole time
Thank you
yeah ik same with wirtz tbh, i could hardly consider a draft without him
I get the vibes that Larsen is great as a fox in the box and a clinical finisher but, if you can't create anything for him, then ...
like wolves were bottom 5 for xG last season right, even with cunha and RAN
Gakpo instead of Wirtz unfortunately
im set on my 3 back team its literally just watkins vs wirtz now
Which defenders are Chelsea linked with to replace Colwill?
Gakpo instead of wirtz solves everything
this is the thing past 2 summers we’ve sold all our big chances creators (neto, cunha, sarabia, ait nouri) and not properly replaced them
hopefully arias and fer lopez can help but they’ll need to get up to speed still (lopez especially i think as he’s quite young) and we could really do with some more options
-
guys, Murillo + Gakpo + Strand Larsen, or N. Williams + Rogers + Mateta?
-
Additional question, is Murillo even worth 0.5 over N. Williams?
Yes Murillo is worth .5 more
now do
fernandes -> wirtz
petrovic -> sels
and ur team will be correct
no one atm, Hato can play CB
i posted earlier but if you remove all the league goals that cunha, ait nouri, sarabia, guedes and semedo contributed to last season we’d have only scored 7 💀
eze gonna steal porros set pieces 
thoughts on this?
Nice team
Firmly relegation tier
or murillo, gakpo, strand larsen better?
2nd option
whats the logic behind mateta over pedro? i am in a dilemma here
Xmins, pens
i just dont love Pedro
Mateta prolly on pens now, Pedro not
also xmins
as beef said
hmm yeah
Pedro and mateta are pretty similar imo, depends what kinda manager you are
Both are fine and I don't think one is clear over the other
this is why frimpong is essential
👀
I mean yeah
this my team atm, thinking pedro->mateta, JSL-> fullkrug
yep, obvs there’s oneil tax on a portion of what makes up that data but i reckon if we don’t make some serious signings we’re at a big risk of going down
I just tried smt like this and its cooking
Rogers Sanchez vs Gakpo Kelleher
Only issue with this is it’ll be a pain to move to gyokeres, Watkins, ekiteke etc
Probably requires 2 moves yeah
Bit of a squeeze to put Rogers in there, damn
I'm going without Rogers ngl. Dont wanna suffocate my team
Idk how people have funds for Sanchez, I feel like I'm squeezing every .5 out of my defense
but it wont be a pain to move to solanke
ideally
sanchez is a set and forget, one position less to have a headache about
I think I need Watkins tho. More than Rogers
but really, everyone on double spurs def after tonight, or what?
yeah all the 4.5s are crap
Nah, they're just good options at a good price, when we're cutting our defenses down then suddenly they look appealing
next you sack off rogers for reindeer and get murillo and RAN/porro

Yeah I feel like punting on MDC, but can't have him starting each game. So that would require another 4.5 as backup
Going from double villa to 0 doesn't feel great but, I get it
think ill just ignore pool mids at this rate
always a good plan
Villa fix are so juicy
Wirtz pre assists will go crazy
esteve overhead kick goal vs spurs gonna hit like crack
Watkins reijnders
This looks fine but i want some more excitement on a friday night ya know
ive lost the plot here
Just got double 5.5 mids to facilitate Gyokeres over Pedro 👀
This looks great
Get big frimpong
all you have to do is kill evanilson and bring in 🏓 and ur team is correct
Isn't a new season exciting enough
Obvs no wirtz but it is what it is
You're facing a brand new meta
evanilson should be on pens for now
yeah i would so have wirtz over watkins but it would mean id have to get a 6.0 striker
Kluivert training
It's a decent team
actually id go rutter probably
Lads what do we say Evanilson or Bowen?
Bruno hype not my thing but yeah
ok now we're cooking
might be back on salah 🥀
Depends where the other milli goes
you were never going without him
you feel confident enough in playing Anderson each week?
he'll be top 3 scoring mids this szn
No1 was lol they were just tryna act cool for a day
Villa just confuse me
Watkins and rogers 🔥
Feel like it I want one of Rogers or Watkins then I should have the other one too
Rogers and Watkins, easy picks. Not bothering with their defenders.
1m itb
honestly yeah, half the benefit of cbit makes defenders better in worse fix
Andersen*
hows this?
Can't be getting Andersen and Anderson confused now
who's got enough budget to go for Pickford? 
I’d want a rotational piece on the bench for your defence personally
yeah i like my team enough
my bad
no more drafting til deadline
tip: get players who will score points and ignore everyone else
Ye can't be starting vdv diouf every week
cap
He’s still playing Diouf every week
wirtz fullkrug (🤮 ) vs Watkins reijn
I’m not building anything else until rogers news
Watkins Reijn is pretty easy
Holy midfield
fr
gonna be skipping on reijn personally
I got 0.5 to go rutter over him
romero over porro might be worth if eze comes in asw
Villa’s first 7 is so free for attackers
I want to fit Watkins Gyokeres and Rogers but I also want Bruno for the boring returns
rogers and watkins are involved in like almost every villa goal as well
i might wc4

Brunos a bring in later for marmoush for me
Talking myself back into 451 with Watkins
We've gone full circle boys
get rid of that really expensive egyptian 😈
Rogers should go centrally ideally and I think he’ll at minimum improve on his last season
tiele might be central
im very surprised this is affordable
look at his defence and bench
i really think in 3-4 weeks everyone gonna be rushing to take money out of their defence
once the cheaper cbit options emerge
Think he’ll play beside Kamara
double defence is a no go for me
How would you spend 20m on a back 4?
Oh god, that can't be a good sign
^
Who else's camera roll looks like this?
wirtz vdv OR gakpo porro?
Second
donbt really like gakpo at all
why
Join the dark side
wirtz i could keep him for 10 weeks no issue, feel like as soon as isak signs i dont want gakpo
i feel like he'll score 1 goal then disappear like a pump and dump crypto scam
scenes when your one striker gets injured GW1
Same thing with Ekitike too
kel palmer v sels saka and rogers Bruno guiu v gakpo mateta reindeer
frimpong > gakpo is the only reason I'm off gakpo
i see
community shield kneejerk
Kel Palmer
Rogers Bruno
i really have a hard time getting 4 defenders i like is the thing
wasn't being on Gakpo also a kneejerk after a previous friendly? 
i mean he was being pushed in here before community shield too i think
Tell me it's not Romero vdv Murillo Neco 
he scored in all tbf
i didnt think it had anything to do with pre season specifically
yes and now they’ve moved away after the community shield is what I’m saying
i thought it was just that hes a cheaper option
he’s still a good option
gakpo train started when we knew diaz was leaving
Damn, I wish spurs and forest had their bad fix in the same week, then double double and free hit in that week would be perfect
well im back on the train 
im off Double Forest after hearing forest correspodants form planet fpl say they look shit
So what 4.5defs are at least good for cbits?
They do look shit
none ngl, or at least not enough data
andersen, agbadou, senesi, richards
They've only played 1 prem level opponent in preseason and lost 3-1
If no nfo defensive assets then defenders are all dead (apart from maybe spurs)
part of me is considering keeping tarkowski and praying keane doesn’t get a second on the pitch
i want frimpong man ffs
You could keep Tark just for his defcons. But then he’s quite expensive I guess
could go double forest but not really feeling it
probably still better than tark now tho
cba
Might as well just get Keane then
Would rather just get Andersen at that point
gifs e broke

im poor
god forbid a man goes back to the classic 442
DeCuyper 
Turn Pedro into Rogers and you're cooking, free .5 too
solid
Ive been hyping him up all day.
Hurzeler was quite positive avout him
So you're the same as me then, 20m for a back 4
ill die on my 442 hating grave tho
I dont see who that could be thats also in a team that gets clean sheets
its so boring
midtable
whoever that will be
will spawn some cbit warriors
Possible pens too when welbz not on the pitch
naturally
dont say that to meee
Did welb play much in preseason?
Yes and no
22.5m back 4 >>>
Like yeah he did, but what's worth noting is welbz and Rutter didn't play together at all in preseason, they were always in separate lineups or subbed for eachother, with Rutter playing every single one of his mins in preseason at CF
reindjers in a 442 is crazy work
So Rutter CF is a clear plan
5 attackers at that point
6* (frimpong)
Speaks a bit against Rutter though that he was at no point played as 10. He could miss a game then.
is there a chance rutter ever gets pens or is that very unlikely
80% of the time you wont get attacking returns from wirtz salah and frompong
officially moved to fh4 wc13 bb15 
so thats 2 in my books
Rank Watkins, Bruno, Wirtz 123
bruno, watkins, wirtz
that order
all yous planning 10 weeks ahead, is this your first time playing fpl ?
nope
watkins wirtz bruno
high floor team
Still first choice #10 imo
having a rough plan is always good
doesnt mean you'll stick to it
just so u have an idea of the trajectory of ur transfers
Still weird then that he didn’t play there
once Isak is signed up I can relax. Salah/Isak/Wirtz will carry me and all I'd have to do is rotate differentials around
“I can relax” you’re not negotiating the transfer yourself pal
It's just preseason, Rutter has been playing #10 for years, it's fine. Just testing him out at CF in preseason
its not this easy
i can accept watkins bruno wirtz (probs)
but wirtz is just not outscoring bruno 
bruno literally as is has a higher ceiling than wirtz
it is easy tbf
high floor team with cbits, and Isak+Wirtz+Salah+Palmer for attack
there isnt much else to do then
where did you finish last season rhian
like 100k
right
i stopped playing after march though
i was top 10k early season but i fell off then i got bored 💀
so it dropped even more
hmm, doesn't fit my narrative now I'm looking to drop him 
Basically we have no idea who takes pens without welbeck on the pitch
O'Riley took one last season when both Pedro and welbz were off the pitch. He'll probably be on the pitch too when welbz is off, since welbz off would mean Rutter #9, so who plays 10? O'Riley or gruda, and gruda I think will be more used as depth for minteh at rw
But, noone in the squad has taken pens professionally before. O'Riley did his first last season.
Also, O'Riley may be off to Juve
There's only one exception, DeCuyper has taken like 10 and scored 9
What's Murillo edge over Neco?
cbit i think
Cbit?
im trusting the cbit nerds on that one tbh
and bonus
Do I?
He means Bict
tcbi
Icbt
Bitc (bitcoin)
I thought we decided on Bict and Brict
am i the only one saying cbit
You mean it's a server convention?
Nah it's CBIT
Brict is just funny
Ooooh
what even is defcon
Defensive contributions
isnt that what mids are getting?
idk
ive been thinking cbit for defenders and defcon for mids
Climb my boy
That's the new implementation in FPL like UCL Fantasy, correct?
Ok, it is a new meta
Nah same thing
CBIT for Def, cbitr for mids, which is shit
I prefer brict
Can't wait for Anderson to get his 12th defcon and I announce in liverant that Anderson is brict up
I saw MDC's goal in preseason the other day, that's so what he does. Turn up there, and hitting it straight in (or putting it aside as an assist)
this explains so much about what u were saying in here before lol
beef man
didnt realise u werent familiar
If DeCuyper gets a pen he's triple risint
is he an actual pick
cuz i have him in my draft
reindeer and decuppy are my xFun picks
will de cuyper get consistent starts
Should do
He's first choice but you never know when hurzeler will do hurzler things and okay kadioglu or hinshelwood
if not i heard Mr.e-steve is one of the best defenders in the prem
Eh, kroupi >>
guiu double drop will feed my kids kids kids
he has commented on how well he's integrated into the team
ive effectivily wasted by library time tinkering my fpl team
another good days work

Not even touching my FPL team just
for news
at least I got paid while doing it today 
just go rogers -> rutter, romero -> porro and esteve -> andersen
otherwise its too unbalanced imo
would you do your 5.0gk to a 4.5gk and have a 4.5def on the bench to rotate in some weeks, or just keep bench to the bare minimum and suck it up with the starting defs each week?
Imo the difference in points between price points is at its lowest with keepers
So if you need to cut funds, keepers are the first place I look to
not sure about it mate
i feel like difference in points between neco williams and murillo might be lower than between 4.5 gk and sanchez/sels
Touched too much grass prior to the game
I prefer Murillo 4.5 to Neco 5.0
God damn it it's embedded
verbruggen last year was 2.9 points / match while murillo is 3.9 / match
If Murillo is 4.5, I'm in
is murillo gonna score on avg 1 more point than neco this year? im not sure
I'll have to re-read the new rules of the game
That and the occasional header
The real puzzle is VdV vs Porro
if there was a standout 4.5gk I'd happily save money on them.
Is this including cbit
Murillo
sorry, not murillo 3.9 but Sanchez 3.9/match
You also picked verbruggen who is arguably the worst 4.5
@cedar hull How would you spend 20m on 4 defenders?
and who do u think is better?
Kelleher, petro
is kelleher even fit? he's flagged now
That's why I have kelleher and valdimarsson
well but its nice to actually have a playing 4.0 bench option in case u want to for example bench boost
Yeah, 1st pair
also playing dubravka in gw2 might not be good
Guess fullbacks have lost their edge
not be bad i mean
ill be playing esteve anyway and dont want double burnley defense no matter what the fixture is
also brentford defence wasnt good even when frank was there, now they might be total mess in that department
There's no way I'm bbing before WC so I'm not worried about the 4.0
They concede a lot of low xg shots relative to the league
And yet flekken was great last year 
Murillo, neco, lacroix Andersen maybe
im unbiased (🇮🇪)
Depends on that 5th rotation option
come on. I mean i had flekken, he saved few of my gameweeks, but calling him great is a stretch
Steve
Flekken was 4th highest scoring keeper lol
holy fuck this is actually genius
why the hell didnt i think about it
do we know that kelleher is out for gw1?
This, @gleaming rain
Just go vdv over Andersen then or smth, could do triple 4.5s maybe
was he? Kek
No and they play Sunday so no press
guess im wrong then
mate this explains so much
is that really worth for 1 week when the alternative would have dubravka to cover in future
You say future but I'm planning wc7
fair
No other weeks stand out for dubravka over petrol
I'm on darlow now fwiw, but might switch back
Yeah that makes sense too
also tho brentford still have most their defence, unlike bou
tbf looking at petro's first 6 games i only see a CS vs leeds in gw6, maaaaybe vs wolves in gw2
These 4.5s just need 1, maybe 2 cleans in the first 6 weeks to be worth it
Since those cleans will be hauls with save points
Sanchez 2 cleans few save points = petro 1 clean many save + bps
Wissa won't play forest, double NFO Def 
btw about vergruggen as well
spend .5 to upgrade verb to sanchez = 19.5
murillo = 14
porro = 5.5 = 9.5
romero andersen = 9.5
surpisingly, Brighton according to bookies have 5th highest chance for CS in GW1 tied with Arsenal
and they play vs not that bad of a side - fulham
Your maths is wrong bro
brentford have 21% playing vs Forest
Murillo porro Romero Andersen costs 20.5
Would leave 4.0 for a keeper
14-5.5 = 8.5
i’m an idiot
wow
drop romero to VDV keep verb
You're 1m out
kinda OT but interesting nonetheless
verbruggen or kelleher
or petro
Kelleher
4.5 keepers are really mediocre
Petro
also trying to figure this out
So Murillo porro vdv Andersen
Yeah that makes sense
yep those are really the 3 im trying to choose between
I have Romero neco over porro Andersen rn but could be wrong on that
Petrol + valdi/darlow clear
Brunoooo
Wow wolves will get triple the penalties from last season now 🔥
i might just fucking downgrade Mateta to Strand Larsen and get Murillo over Willaims and Sanchez over Verbruggen so I can finally stop thinking about this lol
this is locked
so just gonna read it all myself
this atm
oh its free nvm
he not taking them sorry bro
do u really believe he will be on pens?
larsen or fullkrug?
btw, any chances Georginio takes pens when welbeck is off the pitch?
I’m on Sels + Neco. Hopefully doubling up negates the loss on not having the two best Forest defs
Doubt it
Don't like any fwd cheaper than evanilson tbh, id try to avoid, but fullkrug if I had to
Ultimately we don't know who takes pens without welbz
Thiago
larsen
Don’t sob me fellas
If he doesn’t take them he should be getting minutes though right?
Thiago is better than both of them
btw why the strand larsen hate? Guy scored 14 goals last year without pens
he is when wissa confirmed gone
All we have to go off is noone in the squad has taken professional pens before, except 2
o Riley took one last season for us
DeCuyper has taken like 10 and scored 9
anything for u 🥰
Or is Hurzeler suddenly gonna put Kadioglu
have i started a debate?
for now no
been one tbf
Murillo over porro, Andersen to rodon, verbruggen to vicario/Sanchez, esteve covers vdv gw2
Most of their goal contributors are gone from last season
Wolves look pretty average and Larsen isn’t that likely to have pens either
0 chance creation for wolves rn
i defo want porro. Esteve covers vdv gw2, but Andersen is nice in GW4 (leeds) over Forest def (Arsenal)
Just look up what afflated said
Andersen's first 6 are so shit
(mateta vs jp) vs (larsen vs fullkrug)
i prefer mateta
Think Jimenez is nailed as Muniz is leaving if anyone is interested in going bold
He fucked me over when I owned him last season
Never again
Aight gang
Romero+Neco
Vs
Porro+4.5
(Both playing every week)
They are linked to Taremi
neco + van de ven + 0.5
Already got vdv
yess, give in!
how can i improve
damn this tread is just becoming a META rmt. People just dropping their teams here for a rating 💀
I'm not doing random rmts here
Rmts for the active members only
Thoughts lads?
how confident you with romero?
bro look at ur Megateam rmt and call me not an active member kek
@modest beacon
double forest defence with a weak bench could look rough gw4
arsenal away
I’d just play Evanilson tbh
Just just have to firm it and hope for cbits
Over who
Oooo
i was more alluding to double spurs def
Yeah fine with that
Rogers ig
Only bad fix is gw2 and you cover one of those with Steve
Idk what that means for valdi starting chances
Cause for concern if you're valdi+petrol
Anderson
cause i have 0.5m itb def, cant decide whom to upgrade
why dont u just downgrade rogers to georginio and upgrade romero and kelleher?
BC Rogers is the goat
Rogers worth 1m more than georginio eaasssssily
Richards to Lacroix or VDV to Romero are equally good options
Imo
Diouf to neco
Diouf up to Neco woulf work well
good shouts
i am not sure about double forest def to get neco
need to delude myself more
Fh4 covers Forest’s Arsenal fixture that week and makes it a great run of fixtures
Happy to play Murillo in bad fix
In not gonna use a powerful chip just because my 5.0 def has a bad fix
It's not that deep
Yeah Murillo will likely get cbit that week
fh6 is the play
FH after WC7>>
ok ye this is quite interesting actually
Give us the tldr?
Bowen or JP? I might take Bowen out for Evanilson after gw1 tho
Other 2 forwards are ekitike and Watkins
In a 343
jade clickbaiting us fr
and petrovic since hes saving salahs pens
probs most relevant
bruno is probably the best player to have in fpl, he gives goals, assists, defcon, pens, corners
tbf its one thing for pl to say this and another to do it
Just realising now that prime MacAllister at Brighton would've been even better in FPL with defcon
they started with the time wasting shit last year then by the end didnt matter one bit
Btw Beef, there is one major flaw in ur draft that Im not sure u realised. U probably will want to have Munoz in gw4 and u will probably want to keep Murillo. So u will need to downgrade somewhere anyway to upgrade Romero
Sick
Yea but Munoz > lacroix even more than Murillo > Williams
basically cracking down on defenders holding players with 2 arms
thats it really
basically pens should be given more frequently for box holding
Yeah I'm very torn between doing Romero to porro and Neco to a 4.5 (DeCuyper, Andersen, diouf etc)
dont agree with this
which is obviously quite a massive thing if the case
Playing 2x 4.5 def every week probsbly also not very optimal :/
the difference between munoz and lacroix is smaller than murillo and neco if you brute force their xp
Really?
Vdv is a 5.0 priced at 4.5
works both ways too becuz if defenders adjust and hold less then we'll probs see more set piece goals?
thiago stonks ig
Well thats actually quite true but its about team structure
all it takes is for it to be made an example of once in the first gw for it to have an effect imo
I mean, if we're talking about doing moves gw4 then you can move funds around by then with 3ft saved up
Ur just WC and Save the transfers 
Wissa deal almost done? 
Anyone on a 451 has to be quite passive with early transfers yeah
well wissa wont play gw1 atleast
confirmed?
im probably just going this, no Rogers hurts but anyways, I somehow feel more safe this way
yeah
Too bad he has a team in gw1 that many of us are doubling defence on
true
its fine murillo screamer incoming
that happened last season and it barely changed anything
declan rice was sent off for kicking the ball away then we hardly saw it again
Veltman Vs rice 
is this actually true or are we just going off memory (i doubt u watched/remember every prem game)? might have to check the actual data
wouldnt be surprised if it did actually get enforced tbh 
i think you are thinking about Trossard
idek how i'd go about finding the stats for this 
roll the tapes ig
hmm
no ik
had to remind an arsenal fan about it 
i mean classiic saying it never got enforced after it
And then there was the Pedro Vs saliba thing
i have a feeling thats probably less true
ohh i see
it was actually both
first rice vs brighton and then trossard vs city
fairs
this is what started the whole refs vs arsenal agenda
and then throughout the season we barely saw anymore ycs for the same issue because of it
yea
Don't forget the saliba red card for headbutting Pedro
oh yes the arsenal cherrypicking i remember now
Trossard was dodgy aswell man

3 decisions that could all be considered dodgy
Wasn't a red
Was a pen though
And Howard Webb being on the phone when saliba was getting possibly sent off
And skelly red card
skelly red was explainable i'd say
but trossard one in one of the biggest matches of the season that arsenal drew purely because of this was nuts
just dont forget about the human aspect as well jade
they tried to make an example and they received backlash
might not always be the case but it happens
fair enough
i think im between anderson and pedro/solanke or reijnders and wood
Anderson > reijnders
Pedro/mateta > solanke/wood/evanilson
the wisdom of a seasoned helper
find 0.5 for georginio over anderson/reijnders if possible
I'm ready for evan cook ngl
Havertz finishes more points than Solanke but yeah
1
What’s this ekitike thing
same non pexg90 as gyok in a harder league
excellent on the ball, brilliant movement
i feel hes the type of player that scales with team quality
from watching him at least
Ekitike and gakpo both transfers waiting to happen though:/
yeah that is true
I get it though
boring but i think i know the right answer
For the first couple of weeks they look good
was hoping for more isak news by now
Listening to blackbox and feeling a lot better about a few things
Main thing I'm tuning into is the idea of
'do you need to be the first person on them'
i still havent watched/listened to any preseason content lol
Like, upside picks like reijnders, DeCuyper, Pedro etc etc, just because you don't own them gw1 doesn't mean you'll never own them
anyone done a salah haaland draft
And they’ve served their purpose
Nope
How bad is it to have KDH as a starter 
howd you sneak pedro in here
hes 2nd highest owned
If I want Haaland I'd just sell Salah
Lmao thought you were gonna say how'd I sneak DeCuyper into this
mdc is definition of dont need to be first
Thanks Keith Andrews for giving me fuck all to work with
How much better is Romero vs VDV?
Reijnders too
Never thought in a million years i’d ask that
shame about Mark leaving really
I dont enjoy it nearly as much anymore
Why does ESR look kinda chubby?
And they posted it with a chef emoji
And then deleted the post lmao
Josh king stonks
I think if I’m in a position where I don’t HAVE to start lacroix every week, he’s still the standout 5.0 pick
If I perish I perish
fine heres my boring ass team then
Ok need to move to 4ATB to fit King on my bench
interesting defensive picks sure had a major downfall these past days
What if I told you that I have the same team but Bruno over mateta+Anderson
anderson boooooooo
In a 451
agreed
See that just sounds better
dont like anderson but defenders all died and reijnders is 🕊️
Dubravka gonna mog
idk how youve made that team with watkins mateta but fairs
Wow every prediction site has Josh King starting
Without going big at the back lacroix is just meh
#10 too
Anyway
damn i probably need to make a team
Neco
Who else we putting
is rogers good?
I’m not going triple forest defence
Collins 

Lacroix or Romero then
i took Mateta out, those first 3 r just so offputting, will get him in gw4
Collins 3
i think i have the same team tbf
ok maybe not
Thiago 🕊️
Palace fixtures actually aren’t TERRIBLE
the circumstances surrounding the team is just dire
Midweek games
These plans still in tact?
2 midweek games before gw3, 13 players
Eze guehi leaving
First 3 not great fix
There's enough there to label the whole club as wait and see in FPL now
My only qualm is
Romero isn’t good
No cbit
Maybe some set piece threat
Goals though
Loves a card
Collins got 9 attacking returns last season
Let frank cook with Romero
fucks sake no bye in pick1
chels (a), forest (h), villa (a)
chels r on hot form, forest has 0-0/1-1 draw all over it + villa r always tough at home
Collins also does decent cbit
forgot to reg pick1
ignore the overperformance 
ah well someone else can win a cup
Shhhh
this is matetas talisman season 
do people have rogers chat
60% goal share incoming
Remember when Brentford scored in the first minute for like 4 weeks in a row?
One of those was Collins, from open play
Romero already likes playing as a striker
Let frank cook
Rogers+watkins
cheap mids dead just get rogers
Rogers > 7.5 fwds
rogers + watkins is 70% goal share surely
who's on rutter then
actually why not KDH instead of Anderson? Rogers in will solve my midfield problem 🙂
I was but not anymore, Rogers >>
known vs unknown quantity
kdh could play10 or 8
if he plays 8 youre cooked cos he doesnt farm cbit much
I think 8 according to Sjarrti
pick1 is ez just go gakpo before ur opponent
rutter might just be a wait and see brev
i got a bye in pick1
prime ekitike week
good shout tbf
0 promoted teams in 9 gws
pick1 is free just get a bye
time to pick fulkrug pick1 
i always go a mid over forward in pick1
What happens with O'Riley impacts Rutter and DeCuyper massively
We probably won't get news before gw1,
Both are picks that you don't have to be the first on
ekitike isnt mid though
gw4 i will be there
Brighton fix get good from wc7
o riley linked to juve btw
Yeah that's what I'm referring to
oh right mb
O'Riley to Juve makes both Rutter and DeCuyper better
oh wait didnt even see those UECL fixtures dfkm
Rutter's mins would be incredibly secure if O'Riley left
juve tryna copy the Mcsauce-napoli formula
Wow
mateta wont play conf anyway
5 games in 14 days
Do we still WC at GW 9 ish and plan the squad for a FH, BB and TC?
There are many strats
Most popular and simplest is wc4/7, all other chips after wc
13 is a big week for WC or FH yeah
It makes planning the first few weeks with your gw1 team very easy yeah
this is why im not on palace rn
losing 2 key players and congested schedule
And they have 17 players in their squad
@oak jasper prepare to lose in pick1
not good yeah
not like palace are known for starting strong
city ig
Ah it's you im up against thought I was gonna have a challenge
We usually start well 
ig
pick ekitike and you win
I picked mateta 😈
ahh gg u lost
You've only named 1 good player there
god forbid am i picking someone i own
I recommend picking odegaard
have player picks spreaded out in different comps (FPL, pick1, scout league) 
surely with them spreaded out someone is bound to haul
im most likely going to pick mitoma
havent decided yet tho
Please no dont do that
that or welbeck but i dont rly like picking forwards
Jade go with your heart
Heart over Brain imo
ooo myb i go with szobo
actually nah if im going with my heart i'd pick like frimpong becuz ive been convinced bmouth werent gonna score against pool for a while now
well not frimpong but a liverpool defender
kerkez perhaps
I don't like pools CS odds without grav
And from then frimpong is mins risk waiting to happen
I think Arsenal, they are very good at the start of the season usually
probably not ideal tbh, but good luck!
did u see my latest draft alr

Possibly yeah, seems like more teams are known for being bad at the start than vice versa
Will we get Leeds presser today 
nice team, when are you gonna wildcard though, I think long term Arsenal attacker might not be that great
Double Spurs def too 
7/8 maybe
reckon cherki starts against wolves?
given he’s just got #10
probably, Pep is known to be a fraud though
this thread and this server
The thread has a league?
pinned
Thank you
hmmmm
Is it the one posted by Classiic?
yes
I believe fplraptor posted something related to that
It's horrible
You legit have to connect yourself twice
And the settings updates aren't saved once you request it
i mean they fixed the site
the fact they had to overhaul stuff due to all the issues on both ends
when they could had done the current setup in the offseason
they fixed it recently though
@stone perch I think you mean this right
I prefer to use FFM app, better than the official FPL app with no lag etc
Unless FPL crash then the app would crash too 
50/50
I guess I just gotta decide between Wirtz and Bruno. Attempts to get them both have failed.
Either 4.8m or 4.3m
8.5 and 9m makes a big big difference.
Its wild
yeah if the casuals starts to sell him asap
Getting rid of wirtz means 0 pool attackers which I'm not a fan of
Just seen ekitike is 13% owned okay
What the fuck
How much is Bruno at?
20.2
we will feast classic
Yeah true actually
Kind of
It feels like a ported website on the phone
Not optimized at all
yep agree
Might still pick Tark
need a 5.5 defender
Don't blame you
I know Keane is shit though but I feel like you could pick him over tark
whats ur current team
5.5 mid + ndiaye/sarr
vs
dewsbury hall + rogers (if fit)
and if 1, who do you pref, ndiaye or sarr?
Don't think you can be playing kdh every week
sarr but neither
yh that's the issue, kdh would have to rotate prob with defenders
Id try and find 0.5 for 5.5 + rogers
i could do that but would prob mean murillo down to neco
and if i'm going only 1 forest def, i'd prob rather it be a murillo/milenkovic than neco
any 6.5 mids you like the look of or nah?
I'm sure there's another way, send team
