[broken patio]

Very likely taking a hit or even two

I don't think I need wc

[novel harbor]

i see

[broken patio]

Also don't think there's enough info to wc yet

We're still unclear on Salah Vs Haaland Vs both

[lavish parcel]

Can't pick arsenal def as well

[quick dawn]

salah bruno and ekitike

and cap bruno vs burnley

[broken patio]

I'm not picking arsenal Def until gw7 anyway

I'm happy with my forest and spurs boys

[lavish parcel]

I've got Tark Lacroix Murillo VDV

[quick dawn]

alright ive done it

yolo

[broken patio]

WC?

[novel harbor]

invest in palace assets !

[quick dawn]

yeah

[broken patio]

Solid
I've got
Neco Murillo
Romero vdv

[lavish parcel]

Palace a little unknown without Eze

If anyone I would do Sarr or Munoz

[novel harbor]

i would quite literally only do lacroix and mateta

[lavish parcel]

I've alr got Lacroix

[novel harbor]

great

[lavish parcel]

Picking haaland means I have a clear Gw3 and gw6 captain

[novel harbor]

they're the only two viable assets that imo arent unknown under eze-less palace

[lavish parcel]

And then rotate with Salah

Until AFCON

[novel harbor]

most predictable anyway

[lavish parcel]

Yup exactly

I like Bruno but I am not captaining him over haaland Gw3

[novel harbor]

i 1000000% am

and would be

but fairs

[lavish parcel]

Brighton defence isn't that good and Rodri is fully back

[novel harbor]

brighton man city just isnt a good ceiling fixture

simple

[quick dawn]

this is the best haaland draft i could make

[novel harbor]

it reeks of haaland 1 goal

[broken patio]

Yeah I mean I defo want Haaland for gw6

No matter what

And im unlikely to fh6, so he's gotta come in

[novel harbor]

bruno vs burnley is sky = limit imo

with defcon and bp

[lavish parcel]

I am leaving my FH until after AFCON

[broken patio]

Then cap Haaland gw7 Vs Brentford too

Then wc8

[lavish parcel]

City and Liverpool triple up against Leeds or Sunderland

[novel harbor]

nah cap bruno again vs sunderland

or depending on watkins improvement

watkins against burnley

or even gyokeres vs west ham

leaning the last

[lavish parcel]

Gyokeres vs West Ham stands out of them all

[novel harbor]

they all stand out

thats why wc7 is the goat

[quick dawn]

actually go mateta then fh6

[novel harbor]

bb8*

gw8 doesnt have strong fixtures

[lone thorn]

Palmer -> Cunha

[broken patio]

I like wc7 but I'm also very open to wv8

Especially with a spurs double/triple up

[novel harbor]

ye wc8 is fine too i think depending on team

[broken patio]

Wc8 gets an extra good fix for spurs, petro, Haaland, villa, and Bruno

[quick dawn]

ok i should be locked into no haaland now

[broken patio]

Bad fix for Salah too so if we're on Haaland over Salah then then it helps that too

[quick dawn]

sold him with the price rise

[novel harbor]

my only issue is that i dont think spurs will be dominant for long

if they dont sign a 10

[novel harbor]

and so leeds away

doesnt even really come across as that great for them (assuming they go back to spursy ways)

[quick dawn]

mateta might enter my team

gabriel on the bench btw

[valid ocean]

Damn no Haaland wc drafts are so good

[quick dawn]

i also have a decent enough bench that i can bb sometime

would be nice if hoever were nailed

might be if they dont sign someone

[cedar hull]

he got injured today

and theyve already signed someone

[quick dawn]

wait what

lol

ok gumundsson or rodon

is rodon nailed or can they play struijk and bijol

[cedar hull]

coin flip tbh

gudmundsson will do better in easy games, rodon better in tough

[quick dawn]

probably just go with the one who is nailed

[cedar hull]

both are tbh

as of now

[quick dawn]

ive just realised califiori and timber are on 6 g/a

crazy

[broken patio]

Weird that people seem so fine with no Haaland now, after he felt essential in gw1

I'm not too put off by cities bad result today

Spurs did a number on them and pep did pep things

[quick dawn]

i mean its not that its bcz for the next 3 i want bruno then salah captain

[cedar hull]

things change quickly

[broken patio]

But he still has the potential to explode

[quick dawn]

i could get haaland back with fts in gw6

unless other things go wrong

[broken patio]

Yeah captaincy is probably the biggest thing, so if you're not gonna cap him then I get it

[cedar hull]

if i was on wc id be on haaland + salah tbh

442 maybe

[quick dawn]

no bruno?

[broken patio]

I find it hard to work out whether Haaland or Bruno is a better cap next week

[lavish parcel]

Haaland imo

[broken patio]

My Brighton bias gets in the way of me being objective

[quick dawn]

yeah not sure for next gw

[cedar hull]

haaland + bruno + salah doable

[quick dawn]

i dunno

i dont think it is

[broken patio]

Defo

I'm looking at that rn

[cedar hull]

not easy with price changes but 4atb is fine

[quick dawn]

5.5 mil of downgrades

[lavish parcel]

I need 0.1 from somewhere

I could have Sarr haaland and Bruno

[broken patio]

It's doable but you don't have much space for picks like Ekitike, wood, Pedro, semenyo etc etc

[cedar hull]

kinda easy

[lavish parcel]

0.1m in the way

[cedar hull]

just go 442

drop one of pedro or wood

[quick dawn]

surely we want ekitike if hes the nailed striker for liverpool

[cedar hull]

and dont get a 5m mid

[broken patio]

Dango over sarr and you're there

[lavish parcel]

I could do it without wc

Just a -8

[quick dawn]

thats still 2 mil short

[cedar hull]

its doable mate

[quick dawn]

ud have to drop semenyo

and play 2 cheap mids

[cedar hull]

im not gonna say every move you have to make to do it

[novel harbor]

mateta>>>>>>>

[supple steeple]

who is Tom Hadley

[cedar hull]

defcon merchant

[lavish parcel]

I still rate haaland very high

[quick dawn]

yeah i might get mateta over pedro

pedro ownership and probably will price rise though

[cedar hull]

idky youre so bullish on wood

[quick dawn]

fixtures

[novel harbor]

^

[quick dawn]

3 worst teams in the league

[novel harbor]

and hes just a bit inevitable atp

[valid river]

Is palmer out for a while?

[quick dawn]

we dunno

[novel harbor]

this is why im on triple forest defence

[quick dawn]

yeah im being clowned on for not having forest defence on wc

tbh i just have an urge to not have money itb

[cedar hull]

murillo and munoz are better than gab/cucu rn

[quick dawn]

tbh id probably get milenkovic and hope he scores

[novel harbor]

they've been better than gab/cucu since pre season

[quick dawn]

cucu looks pretty good

[lavish parcel]

Yeah they're like WC7-8 picks

[novel harbor]

thats what all our propaganda has been for

[cedar hull]

well yea but the context is a gw2 wc

gw3 i mean

[quick dawn]

the thing is cs wipes are so easy to happen

if u get like murillo

[novel harbor]

oh then ye murillo and munoz are ofc better

[quick dawn]

and they were shit for defcon last week as well

[novel harbor]

chelsea fixtures arent even good

ppl picking joao pedro are just knee jerking

[cedar hull]

what is this vague blanket statement

[quick dawn]

if i get munoz he can also return much more likely than murillo

[lavish parcel]

Palace fix are easier than Brentford fix

[novel harbor]

yes this is just same debate that was being had in pre season

[quick dawn]

forest also look like a mess if nuno gets sacked

[cedar hull]

people are wcing gw2/3 and taking hits/kneejerking already, i dont think they remember what we all talked about in preseason

[novel harbor]

should still be fresh on everyones minds

[quick dawn]

i only even thought of wcing because of saka injury

[novel harbor]

ppl forgetting the discourse around pre season

is gonna become an issue

becuz it was all very productive

[quick dawn]

i mean the template does end up being bad most years

[cedar hull]

bezzo is wcing cos he brought saka in before he even played, just goes against everything we said in preseason

[novel harbor]

what we were discussing doesnt rly necessitate any one "template" it was just us weighing when is best to play the ceiling vs attacking defender

[cedar hull]

the conclusion between murillo/munoz was just both are good lol

[quick dawn]

well lets see if it works or not

[supple steeple]

underestimating the power of sitting on your hands

[novel harbor]

someone said either tho

like if u had to choose

[quick dawn]

i think id get milenkovic rn just because of the fixtures

[novel harbor]

if u think forest concede against west ham, sunderland, and burnley then yes milenkovic is probably the better choice statistically

[lavish parcel]

Munoz has villa, Sunderland and West Ham

[quick dawn]

ik

im saying for scoring goals

[lavish parcel]

3 sides with easiest cs potential

And shit defence

[novel harbor]

thats taken into account with what i said already

[cedar hull]

i feel its the other way around no?

[novel harbor]

👀

we went over this

[cedar hull]

easier fix makes murillo better, he hit defcon when they cleaned, milenkovic hit defcon in hard fix when they conceded

[broken patio]

Much better than spunking a WC in gw3

[novel harbor]

murillo is better when cs, milenkovic better when no cs

[lavish parcel]

But how often we need to take that -8 before we WC

[broken patio]

All it takes is another 2 attacking returns next week (totally possible) and everyone thinks he's essential again

[cedar hull]

i wouldnt even know what to do with a free wc rn because 1 its halfway through gw2 and 2, none of the concrete options have materialised yet

so i wouldnt force it

[novel harbor]

id just do anything in my power not to have to

glad i didnt go saka

and palmer

[cedar hull]

like id rather have a shit next gw just to have more info for a wc the week after

[lavish parcel]

And Rodri is back so I expect city to get better in midfield

[cedar hull]

due to transfer window especially

[quick dawn]

the transfer window is only 1 or 2 days after deadline so we know all the moves except for absolute deadline day ones

[lavish parcel]

Yeah I would lose out on some points with the team I made during whole preszn than get low points for pretty much 1st half of the season with a WC team made in 7 days and lot of pressure and lack of info

[cedar hull]

thats kinda the point

you know all moves except unexpected deadline day ones?

[quick dawn]

how many unexpected deadline day moves actually happen

[cedar hull]

theyre unexpected...

it doesnt even have to be a transfer in for example

[lavish parcel]

I think villa, spurs, forest are definitely doing some good signings by the end of the window

[cedar hull]

forest lost brennan johnson their best player unexpectedly on deadline day, which killed their attack

cole palmer was deadline day

[lavish parcel]

And with wc4, you also get the safety from potential IB issues

And European games starts

[sudden robin]

How's everyone getting on in GW2 ?

[supple steeple]

I have 10 points

[sudden robin]

How ?

[cedar hull]

19 points

[supple steeple]

I am rank 8.9m

[sudden robin]

I'm already on 61 icl

[lavish parcel]

22 points

[supple steeple]

only three players played

[sudden robin]

Hang on then, what are your ranks ?

[cedar hull]

4 for me

[supple steeple]

Sanchez, Porro and Watkins

[sudden robin]

Still not ideal for you though icl

[novel harbor]

31 pts

[supple steeple]

yeah its my worst start ever

its alright though

top25k still within reach

panic in gw2 is silly

[orchid plank]

casuals getting rewarded

[sudden robin]

Coincidentally it's my best

[wanton whale]

elaborate

[sudden robin]

I'm already at 175k, not sure how

[novel harbor]

aslong as ur on salah cap ur chilling

[supple steeple]

thats a sick start, yeah

[sudden robin]

Still have Salah & Bruno to play this GW, as well as a couple of others

[supple steeple]

dont think I've had that good of a start tbh

[orchid plank]

João Pedro Junqueira de Jesus.

[sudden robin]

A big part of it is how much work my defenders have been doing

[lavish parcel]

That haul had Palmer written all over it

Just unlucky

[sudden robin]

From my gk & back 3, I've had 7 returns out of 8

[novel harbor]

[cedar hull]

idek what team you landed on

[wanton whale]

nah hes a good pick

[orchid plank]

I wish he was

[cedar hull]

gyok and jp

fairs

[sudden robin]

Immediately though got a lot of fires to put out

[wanton whale]

doku 😭

[sudden robin]

Think FH3 might fix a lot

[wanton whale]

what possessed you to go for doku

[sudden robin]

Starting City LW

[wanton whale]

'starting'

[sudden robin]

Helps that Marmoush was wank today

Doku ended up getting 35 minutes

Marmoush just isn't a LW in Pep's system

[wanton whale]

impressive

[novel harbor]

doku could score 4 and he still wouldnt start lw every game for pep

[wanton whale]

doku nailed then

[sudden robin]

Not nailed, but first choice

[wanton whale]

https://tenor.com/view/that-was-sarcasm-anti-mixtape-i-was-being-sarcastic-i-wasnt-serious-gif-24122833

[sudden robin]

In terms of xDangerous, Doku was goated

[novel harbor]

first choice feels meaningless in this case but idk

it feels like its nailed/not nailed

anything else is just irrelevant

[cedar hull]

scraped 90 minutes over 2gws btw

[sudden robin]

My expectations was if I can get decent returns with like 5 starts in 7 GWs, I'd be happy

Saw more this GW ironically than last

[cedar hull]

0.08xg90 last season

[sudden robin]

Now, Pep tweaked the system in the CWC

And I really liked Doku's role

[wanton whale]

nothing can justify doku as a good pick im sorry

[sudden robin]

No I'm serious, his data in the CWC was amazing

[cedar hull]

3 game sample tho

2 of those games he played 60min

[lavish parcel]

You like doku but not Cherki's stats?

[sudden robin]

Low minutes I'm okay with if the output is good

[sudden robin]

Cherki I wasn't sure where he'd fit in

And I'm still not sure where he fits in

What I think Pep should try is a front 3 of Cherki, Doku & Haaland

[cedar hull]

his output was 2 goals, one of which was against fodder

i dont see how that moved you so much to start with him gw1

[sudden robin]

It was Ait Nouri

[lavish parcel]

He will at some point

[sudden robin]

If Ait Nouri is out ages, I no longer like Doku

[cedar hull]

ran only played with doku for 2 out of those 3

[sudden robin]

Icl everything I've seen, even since, says Doku will be good at some point

Didn't help that Pep pissed about with the tactics GW1

Honestly it's another reason I like FH3

Bc without it I have about 7 immediate issues (Ait Nouri, Doku, Wieffer, Palmer, Raya, Salah & Gyokores)

From GW4 most of these will likely be fixed

[hallow anchor]

Forest Newcastle and West ham are easy cleans

And leeds today

[hallow anchor]

Watched the highlights and haaland was pretty close to points

Deserved an assist at least

Salah hate watch on Monday

[supple steeple]

as per

[hallow anchor]

I much prefer when my captain plays last

[trail forum]

That’s why capped palmer

💪💪

[lone thorn]

who's ur vc?

[trail forum]

Salad

[hallow anchor]

Ok watching the Chelsea highlights

Pedro points were lucky

Like salahs

Happy to move him on when the time comes

[cedar hull]

0.52 xgi

[wanton whale]

sustainable

[lone thorn]

need him to blank my vc Haaland

[cedar hull]

youre shameless bro

[wanton whale]

what do you mean

[hallow anchor]

He got his points mostly from random deflections at set pieces

We take them ofc

Chances are most of the time Pedro isn't involved in set piece scrambles

[wanton whale]

you mean well worked goals?

[hallow anchor]

Exactly

[broken patio]

Yeah defo

I'm 100% doing Palmer to Haaland this week

That was the plan even before Palmer got injured

[obtuse shoal]

Im only considering it cause Watkins didn’t come close to anything.

[broken patio]

Yep Watkins needs to be sold asap

Not even being close to points Vs Brentford is unforgivable

[obtuse shoal]

Didn’t see him at all in motd highlights. Could’ve fooled me he was injured.

[wanton whale]

its dumb to think villa continue like this tho

[obtuse shoal]

Well against Newcastle I believed the narrative, that it was howe’s masterclass that cut their wings. Against Brentford nothing attackingwise…

[elder cargo]

They were shit today

Had all the ball and couldn’t convert anything then got banged on the counter

They were lucky to not concede more than 1 as well

[wanton whale]

they are capable of improving

and the fixtures get even better

[obtuse shoal]

Ofcourse they are

[wanton whale]

but yes they were terrible rn

[elder cargo]

How insightful

[supple steeple]

biggest problem is McGinn RW and Tielemans 10

[wanton whale]

well im making the argument to not sell him? what do you want me to say lmao

[supple steeple]

its dog

[elder cargo]

I’m just saying “they are capable of improving” is generic and could be said of any team lol

[wanton whale]

no shit im not claiming its ground breaking insight

[hollow ermine]

What everyone saying on semenyo

[wanton whale]

just a valid point

[hollow ermine]

Who’s the go to 5.5 now

[wanton whale]

anderson

if you have a slot for wood

[hollow ermine]

Can’t if on triple forest

[elder cargo]

whoever does best this week from them will be the next best thing

Reijnders prop stopped dead in its tracks

Wonder why

[hollow ermine]

Anyway semenyo safe buy yeah

[wanton whale]

yeah reijnders is heavily limited to his role

also probably benched next week

we move tho

[obtuse shoal]

Damn redsix MOTD announced Thiago as the assist. Felt for you 👀

[wanton whale]

might wc

[supple steeple]

maybe one of the bournemouth mids

[elder cargo]

Yeah it was an assist if Dango had of finished it first time

[supple steeple]

I am not updated on them tbh, so idk how nailed they are

[elder cargo]

Keeper saved first shot though

Tough shit

[supple steeple]

Tavernier/Brooks?

[wanton whale]

still a robbery, thiago created the whole move

[hollow ermine]

All dog tbh

[obtuse shoal]

Yeah I saw it. But bbc still gave it to him. Thought maybe with the new assist rules.

[supple steeple]

I mean

[hollow ermine]

Think I’ll just go semenyo tbh

[supple steeple]

its 5.5m

[wanton whale]

keeper save rules ig

[elder cargo]

He had an alright game considering Villa controlled the whole thing. It was a lot of fast break play which doesn’t really suit him but he had a couple of reasonable chances.

Sunderland next 🙏

[obtuse shoal]

Why? As if you can guess pep

[hollow ermine]

Fuck my life my team is getting groped on fm

This is so depressing man

[wanton whale]

no one can

[hollow ermine]

Losing 3-2 to a relegation team

After being 2-0 nil

[obtuse shoal]

So why would you say he’s probably benched??

[hollow ermine]

Fuck these players man

Fuck fpl

[wanton whale]

wouldnt suprise me with rodri back

[hollow ermine]

I’m so lonely

[elder cargo]

Could really do with Palmer being fine for next game

[hollow ermine]

I have nothing

[elder cargo]

Can’t have him and Saka being issues

[obtuse shoal]

Saka looked more worrying?

[hollow ermine]

Fuck we lost again

We can’t qualify

[elder cargo]

Probably missing a few games now yeah

Now that they have depth in Madueke especially

Shit was heartbreaking

He was so set for a haul after that goal

Watkins, Palmer, Saka really giving me a massive start to the season

[wanton whale]

i had so much fomo with no arsenal

[hollow ermine]

4 losses in a row

12 goals conceded

[obtuse shoal]

Surely some people on wc2 are a bit fucked.

[wanton whale]

long term will be fine tho

[hollow ermine]

This is rubbish

[elder cargo]

What are you on about fella

[wanton whale]

triple ars away at pool

[wanton whale]

fm

[hollow ermine]

Anyway

[obtuse shoal]

No one really cares about your fm in all honesty.

[elder cargo]

Bros talking to himself fairs

[hollow ermine]

I need to get rid of fulkrugg this week

Either wirtz or palmer goes

[hollow ermine]

Yeah I think that’s been established

[wanton whale]

who are we moving too if palmer is out?

[hollow ermine]

Hindsight is a powerful tool

[hollow ermine]

Semenyo probs

[cedar hull]

Very much team dependent tbh

[hollow ermine]

Would’ve been saka if fit

[wanton whale]

spurs away aint an amazing fixture tbf to hop on

[obtuse shoal]

First gotta decide if I do him out to get Haaland or not.

[hollow ermine]

Very true

This season might haaland salah play

[wanton whale]

pretty annoying that haaland is 14.1

[obtuse shoal]

Not for me. I had .5 itb

[hollow ermine]

Price rises have fuck me royally tbh

[supple steeple]

meh

[hollow ermine]

Wood and saliba already risen 1

[wanton whale]

oh fair

[supple steeple]

worst case you do a -4 and downgrade someone

its not a big deal

[cedar hull]

Idk how reactive the price changes will be, haaland blanked so maybe he drops? Idk

[elder cargo]

Just aiming to keep myself somewhat afloat till WC6/7/8 at this point

[supple steeple]

if you are 100% convinced on Haaland as a pick

[cedar hull]

I can't go haaland in 2 moves let alone 3

[obtuse shoal]

Im not that’s what’s making it hard.

[hollow ermine]

Not the biggest fan of hits given how bad my season is thus far

[cedar hull]

So Im probably skipping this week

[hollow ermine]

No one has returned for me this week

Only Salah and gakpo last

[obtuse shoal]

I could also see myself just fh6 and do without Haaland for now.

[hollow ermine]

Same

I have 0 city

[supple steeple]

how your season is going shouldnt dictate if you take a hit or not 🤷‍♂️

[obtuse shoal]

Im so ready for a salah pen on Monday.

[supple steeple]

if you dont like hits in general, sure

[cedar hull]

Early season emotions innit

[hollow ermine]

This

[hallow anchor]

As long as he skies it

[cedar hull]

I'm not considering any moves til after pool game anyway

Apparently medical scan for Palmer Tuesday too

So literally no point doing anything til Tuesday

Idc about price changes

[hollow ermine]

I do think if I’m bringing in saliba and wood it’s prob worth

[hollow ermine]

Source?

[obtuse shoal]

The biggest reason to go for Haaland is that I don’t see another forward that’s appealing.

[wanton whale]

imagine bruno goes saudi

[hollow ermine]

Maresca said they’d check when next available I think

[cedar hull]

[obtuse shoal]

So late for a scan…

[hollow ermine]

Where do you downgrade to find funny

[cedar hull]

Yeah not sure

Nothing else to go off rn though

[hollow ermine]

Info using “apparently”

[obtuse shoal]

Palmer obviously

[hollow ermine]

Yeah pinch of salt ig

[hallow anchor]

Gyok, sesko and in a couple weeks isak/jsl/wissa look good to me

[cedar hull]

I never said it was concrete

[hollow ermine]

Maresca said palmer been struggling with it for a while anyway

So I deffo doubt a start next game week

[hallow anchor]

+JP

[hollow ermine]

Long time coming

[obtuse shoal]

Haven’t seen enough of sesko personally. Gyok maybe but with the fix coming

[cedar hull]

Don't rate sesko

[hollow ermine]

They ran an initial assessment and called it precautionary

[cedar hull]

Would rather mbeumo/Cunha since they are mids

[hollow ermine]

So we’ll see

[hallow anchor]

Liverpool and city coming but both defenses look kinda bad

[obtuse shoal]

I could go to ekitike, in worst case it’s another ft in a few weeks.

[hollow ermine]

Would just be watkins straight swap anyway

[cedar hull]

Pool defence gonna be worse than last season, and last season's wasn't exceptional

[hollow ermine]

And I don’t think watkins is a rod yet anyway

[wanton whale]

Gyok will struggle tho in those games i feel

[hallow anchor]

Ofc pool arsenal could be a boring cautious 0-0

[cedar hull]

Absolute cliff between arsenal and the rest though

[obtuse shoal]

Watkins with Sunderland Burnley in the near future yeah

[cedar hull]

We think that every time but past like 5 fixtures average 3 goals iirc

[hollow ermine]

Might as well stack up on assets rn

Salah rogers semenyo wirtz gakpo
Wood watkins

Not sure about the triple pool midfield

But we’ll survive

[humble dust]

missing dangoat

[subtle cove]

what abt evanilson

[hollow ermine]

Saka injury makes it a lot easier for me though

[subtle cove]

feel like he might do better than wood

[obtuse shoal]

If I don’t sell palmer I’m gonna have to start two Brighton assets against city

[hollow ermine]

Not terrible

[cedar hull]

Semenyo is just better than evanilson tbh

[obtuse shoal]

Not ideal as one is a defender without defcon prospect.

[hollow ermine]

I’m fh6 already, I need wood for his high upside coming weeks

Plus I have semenyo

[subtle cove]

fh6 meaning?

[hollow ermine]

I do think spurs home is dead attacking wise

[hollow ermine]

I’m free hitting in gw6

[obtuse shoal]

I don’t know about Evanilson. Without pens. He isn’t the big haul guy (or doesn’t feel that way to me)

[subtle cove]

i currently have double brmth and thinking of going triple with evanilson

[subtle cove]

thats way too ahead, narratives shift and all

[hollow ermine]

I thought so too at first

But for me it’s easy

[obtuse shoal]

Senesi will start for me against spurs. He’s already gotten defcons twice.

[hollow ermine]

I have 0 city

I won’t have city at all by gw6

they play Burnley

Pretty straightforward for me

I’ll have triple pool by gw4

I’d have route to Gyokeres once I sell wirtz

Straightforward really

[subtle cove]

i only have salah rn

[broken patio]

Do we prefer BJ or Kudus?

[hollow ermine]

BJ personally

[broken patio]

Also are they both nailed?

[hollow ermine]

I was big on him in preseason

[wanton whale]

Kudus more creative, BJ for the tap ins at the far post

[hollow ermine]

Kudus getting more minutes on average I think

[broken patio]

Oh wait I can't afford Johnson anyway

[hollow ermine]

Yeah he is

[wanton whale]

isnt he 7m?

[hollow ermine]

Yeh

[wanton whale]

ew

Kudus clear then

[obtuse shoal]

Did Rogers pick up a worry too?

[hollow ermine]

Semenyo on pens yeah?

[broken patio]

I can afford
Palmer, Rogers, Watkins
->
Haaland, Kudus, reijnders

[wanton whale]

hes worryingly shit

[hollow ermine]

Played full 90

[broken patio]

Kluivert and if not then evanilson

[wanton whale]

playing him on the left

[hollow ermine]

Was just ass

[wanton whale]

yuck

[obtuse shoal]

I mean he’s in yellow in the team above.

[wanton whale]

gw1 sc

[obtuse shoal]

Oh ok

[hollow ermine]

That was a SS from pre season

[obtuse shoal]

My bad

[hollow ermine]

You good g

Weird how the scope of my team can change with 1 hit tbh

Makes me wonder why I didn’t just start like that

[broken patio]

I think I'm gonna do this

[cedar hull]

BJ is kinda shit at times, he's very good on the counter though, great movement and always at the back post

But I think they want savinho as a long term winger over him

[broken patio]

Can't afford him anyway

Have 6.8 for a mid

[cedar hull]

Dango is right there wtf

[broken patio]

Would like semenyo but Kudus it is I guess

[hollow ermine]

They looking at lw’s regardless as well yeah

[obtuse shoal]

I could do palmer to kudus. And the week after, guiu to ekitike.

[broken patio]

You prefer him to kudus?

I mean maybe

[hollow ermine]

Do you own dango

[cedar hull]

If the transfer went through in time for gw1 I would have started with him but it was too late so no

[obtuse shoal]

Between what gws is the transfer window ended?

[broken patio]

Can you outline why you love dango so much?

I'm intrigued

[cedar hull]

Just after gw3 deadline

[broken patio]

I like your propaganda

[marsh palm]

can someone summarize the arsenal game

[cedar hull]

Absolute ridiculous stats

[broken patio]

Oh really?

[marsh palm]

also my god rogers ure trash

[obtuse shoal]

Interesting. If Isak doesn’t come. Ekitike after their Arsenal game. Looks very spicy.

[marsh palm]

dangos advanced numbers are nasty lol

[wanton whale]

palmer to dango?

[hollow ermine]

This guy

[marsh palm]

he’s a watchlist if he’s gonna play 90 he’s probably the enabler i’d have

[subtle cove]

im only going salah from liverpool, ekitike looks good but isak is scary

[cedar hull]

2000mins, 0.63 xgi, 0.38xg, 0.25xa

[broken patio]

That's pretty nutty

Oh shit he has Sunderland next

[obtuse shoal]

Well that’s the thing. Next gw you don’t want ekitike. After that deadline you’ll know if Isak comes or not.

[broken patio]

How the fuck did he also smash defcon this week too lol

[marsh palm]

saka and odegaard hurt

[obtuse shoal]

Dango played 84 mins. That decent.

[cedar hull]

For reference, that is the same xg as Palmer's non pen, and same xA as bruno @broken patio

[marsh palm]

thank god i didn’t kneejerk palmer in for him

[subtle cove]

what do yall think of fullkrug, i dont wanna take an L this early

[broken patio]

Wow

[subtle cove]

2m itb

shoulda gone anderson from dhl

[cedar hull]

So to summarise dangos stats last season, he had palmers goal threat and Bruno's assist threat

[obtuse shoal]

Dango is interesting but feels so kneejerky

[wanton whale]

are your players social distancing?

[hollow ermine]

If you have a plan

Just sell

[broken patio]

And Sunderland next

Say less

I'm in

[hollow ermine]

No point in keeping now

The only purpose of fulkrugg was what you can get with the funds

[wanton whale]

https://tenor.com/view/джанго-gif-13213680745697716484

[hollow ermine]

If there’s no point

Then don’t bother

[cedar hull]

To play devil's advocate, there will be obvious regression in a worse attacking side, but the fact that Andrews wants him central shows he already understands dangos profile

[subtle cove]

dango for dbh or evanilson for fullkrug

[obtuse shoal]

Sunderland next is nice. But then it’s Chelsea Fulham Manu and city 👀

[subtle cove]

first time ive thought abt dango

[hollow ermine]

1 scroll and yall already fed him dango prop

You people need Jesus

[marsh palm]

classic has spoiled the differential

[obtuse shoal]

The next 4 are harder (ignore Fulham)

[hollow ermine]

Some people need to be gone

[subtle cove]

so far im thinking of dango, richa, evanilson

[cedar hull]

I talked about him in this thread 2 weeks ago, no one listened then

[subtle cove]

mention me whenever u have a take

[marsh palm]

so why put people on now

[cedar hull]

Tbf I thought only beef would listen

And he asked nicely

[obtuse shoal]

Spurs have crazy fix now. Only Chelsea in 10. The rest is all doable. So a mid from them also looks very tempting.

[marsh palm]

all i had to see was dango’s vapm was like 0.5 something

xgi xg and xa were all beautiful add ons

[broken patio]

Sunderland chelsea Fulham man utd

[cedar hull]

He's 2nd on caveman only behind Salah lol

[obtuse shoal]

Im for some reason considering 8 attackers. Then I can do with a dango.

[cedar hull]

Bear in mind it's non pen

[broken patio]

It's not the worst

Could sell before man city after that lol

[obtuse shoal]

I meant the 4 after Sunderland.

[broken patio]

Or just keep if he's great

[obtuse shoal]

I think I can bench him easily if I got him.

Ok gotta sleep almost 2am. Enough time to think about palmer replacement. Biggest question is do I want Haaland or not..

[cedar hull]

For fuck sake dango

Of course he's a shit finisher

No one's perfect

Hard to have good finishing without consistent starts

[broken patio]

So reijnders rising tonight

And people falling

So uhhhh I just did those moves now

[cedar hull]

Don't care about reijnders unless he's playing that 10 role

[broken patio]

Rogers Watkins Palmer
To
Haaland reijnders dango

[cedar hull]

Oh no

You fell for my propaganda

[broken patio]

I immediately feel a sense of, have I over thought this dango thing why didn't I just get Kudus

[cedar hull]

Pff kudus

Couldn't lace dangos boots

[broken patio]

Eh at worst it's a 1 week punt Vs Sunderland

At worst

Okay calmness restored

Can't wait to sell wirtz for semenyo

[marsh palm]

think i’m gonna just hold with this team

[cedar hull]

You're gonna sell reijnders before dango dw

[broken patio]

Yeah maybe

[cedar hull]

High chance I get dango this week

[broken patio]

Im okay with reijnders flopping

Im just too scared to go without

Call me boring

[cedar hull]

So likely backing myself fwiw

[marsh palm]

i actually do really want dango even if it’s a kneejerk lol

[cedar hull]

Didn't back myself with ekitike and look what happened

[marsh palm]

his underlying metrics r elite and his manager actually plays him where he exploded

[cedar hull]

2 for 3 rn

Wait no 3 for 4

[broken patio]

Petro Ekitike...?

Dango

[cedar hull]

Mateta

[broken patio]

Who's the 4th

Ah

[marsh palm]

@cedar hull what do u think

[cedar hull]

Can't fault him not playing over semenyo

Unfortunate situation

At least bou got a good fee

[broken patio]

Let me cook

Obvs reijnders and dango need to be swapped for aesthetics

[cedar hull]

We have basically the same team bruh

But you probably have 20 more points

Haaland gakpo Sanchez Vs petro Salah mateta

[broken patio]

Also I need reijnders because my team name is
Reijnders on the storm @cedar hull

[cedar hull]

Respect that

I'm using my team name from last year which makes no sense cos he moved lol

But the irony is still there

[broken patio]

Dango unchained?

[cedar hull]

Nah

Quansahquences

[broken patio]

Lmao that's good

[hollow ermine]

That’s great actually

[cedar hull]

I need wirtz to return because otherwise I'm stumped transfer wise

Can't get haaland even with 3 moves tbh

[broken patio]

It's not bad is it

If price rises werent a thing then dango could've been semenyo

[cedar hull]

Dango cap and it's 🔥

[broken patio]

I had 6.8 for a mid there

[hollow ermine]

Ah you brought in haaland just now

[broken patio]

And reijnders

And dango

-4

[hollow ermine]

I think I’m keeping the watkins faith tbh atleast rn

[broken patio]

Sold Palmer Rogers watkins

[wanton whale]

why early?

[broken patio]

Reijnders rising

[cedar hull]

In fairness they had all played which is at least better than bezzo

[broken patio]

Tbf, semenyo and Kudus are too and I was gonna get 1 maybe 2 of them

[wanton whale]

priced out?

[broken patio]

So I was like I'm gonna do this tonight because I lose .3 otherwise

[wanton whale]

ah fair

[broken patio]

In the end it was just reijnders

I could've waited

But

Palmers gonna drop really soon surely too, and Rogers and Watkins

[cedar hull]

Dango looks so sexy in that team

Juicy fix

[broken patio]

Wait lemme make it asthetic

[broken patio]

Yeah my cope is at very worst case scenario he's still a great 1 week punt

[cedar hull]

If you want more cope Brentford have 2nd best 3-6 fix

[marsh palm]

i do remember you showing me your salah version and we said our teams were similar

[cedar hull]

Most likely, you're definitely on top rn though

[broken patio]

Aesthetics have arrived

[cedar hull]

I didn't tinker enough tbh

[marsh palm]

not for long

salah won’t blank

[cedar hull]

I miss my first draft

[wanton whale]

need salah to go mental

[cedar hull]

532 with isak was so sexy

[broken patio]

My god I love 451

[marsh palm]

what do u reckon ure gonna do

[broken patio]

451 just looks so clean

[cedar hull]

Salah hauls cos no frimpong obv

[hollow ermine]

Bold

[cedar hull]

Me? I'm just waiting on the gw to end and Palmer news, boring tbh

[hollow ermine]

Reeindeers for me as always been us

Always

[marsh palm]

fair

[cedar hull]

Can't get haaland in 2/3 moves

[marsh palm]

if palmer is hurt are you going dango 😂

[cedar hull]

Wirtz and Palmer on chopping block

Yeah probably

If either Palmer or wirtz are a sell I'm getting dango

[broken patio]

I could've waited until tomorrow to see if wirtz was shit again

[marsh palm]

what does that open up for you tho

[broken patio]

Then if I sold him instead of Rogers I could've got a more expensive mid than 6.8

So like, semenyo

[cedar hull]

Should be able to get haaland by gw6

[broken patio]

Or Cunha or mbuemo

[hollow ermine]

Worrying fix tbh

[broken patio]

That's bou fix isn't it?

[cedar hull]

That's fine tho

[broken patio]

It's not great but not bad

[hollow ermine]

It’s just eh

Not great

[cedar hull]

Spurs are still an unknown, bha shit defence, Newcastle are mid, Leeds shit, Fulham mid

[hollow ermine]

Not bad

[marsh palm]

definitely gonna wait until gw is over to do anything

i think i roll even if palmers hurt

[cedar hull]

Nah not great at all, but Bournemouth fourth best attack itl

[broken patio]

We usually do really really well against Bournemouth though

Idk why

I'm not clever enough tactically to know why

[cedar hull]

If Palmer out I wouldn't hold tbh

[broken patio]

I wanted to sell Palmer this week anyway

[marsh palm]

yeah but i’m not trying to keep 3m itb

[cedar hull]

You lose so much to the field

[hollow ermine]

Meh

God I would love Cucurella

Such a good asset to have

[broken patio]

Double villa attack stinking up that team sadly

[wanton whale]

this is possible tbf

[broken patio]

JOIN ME

[hollow ermine]

Cala copying smh

[cedar hull]

Dango train has left the station

[hollow ermine]

Not beating the allegations

[broken patio]

How can you afford that wtf

[wanton whale]

money

[broken patio]

Do you have .5 itb?

[wanton whale]

no

[cedar hull]

Bro Palmer to dango is 4.5m

[broken patio]

Oh wait no dango is cheaper than I thought

Ignore me

[hollow ermine]

He’s what like 5.5?

[broken patio]

I was thinking about me when I had Kudus in that place instead

[wanton whale]

6m

[cedar hull]

6

[broken patio]

6.0

[marsh palm]

palmer and guiu to dango and gyokeres looks really good

[wanton whale]

dont think ill do it

[cedar hull]

He's the best mid under 7.5

[marsh palm]

but gyokeres fixtures

[modern vector]

I was thinking of selling gyokeres 😭

[wanton whale]

hate taking gakpo out before burnley

[broken patio]

Dam I would've been .1 off

Got reijnders instead of Kudus there

And 0.8 itb

I'm fine with that

[modern vector]

gw3 right before the end of the window

surely we find out what happens with the other swedish striker by then

[marsh palm]

didn’t watch the arsenal game so wouldn’t know what to say other then his 2 goals and 100% pen share

[cedar hull]

Id consider dying on dango captain hill if Bruno wasn't playing Burnley

[hollow ermine]

Looooool

Anyway I doubt I see myself going dango tbh

[marsh palm]

palmer and guiu probably become semenyo and joao pedro or dango and gyokeres/ekitike i think

i’m not removing rogers

[broken patio]

Watkins to Ekitike ez

[marsh palm]

team is so heliocentric on him

[hollow ermine]

Would rather I make my own decisions so I can take accountability for them

[broken patio]

[hollow ermine]

Instead of pinning it on thread or Solio

[cedar hull]

Nah bro just blame me

[marsh palm]

.

[broken patio]

I'm so glad that I've just sold Rogers and Watkins

[hollow ermine]

Who does that help

[modern vector]

Gyok to Ekitike if Isak deal collapses fully could be nice

[broken patio]

I didn't even check who villa have next

[cedar hull]

I will take on the burden of all your picks

[broken patio]

They had to go

[marsh palm]

dangos numbers look so good lol

but it’s a kneejerk

[hollow ermine]

I’m 100% getting gyok from gw7

[marsh palm]

but so would semenyo and jp

[cedar hull]

I was just waiting for him to start lol

[hollow ermine]

So eikitike is out the picture entirely

[cedar hull]

It was earlier than expected

[broken patio]

Yeah he's on my wildcard 100%

[hollow ermine]

Yeah but I’m not wildcardinv gw7

So that’s the issue

[broken patio]

I'm wc7/8 most probably

Almost definitely

[hollow ermine]

I hoped Villa would be better tbh

Cause long term they have some of the best fix in the game

[broken patio]

Unless I can somehow get to the wc7/8 draft without WC but that seems unlikely

[marsh palm]

no way can i hold my wc until 13 jesus

[hollow ermine]

This is just really disappointing

[broken patio]

By then they might be okay and we can buy them back

[modern vector]

just get them back if they start playing well

[marsh palm]

i think i roll and play esteve next week

[hollow ermine]

At what point in the game do I move on either haaland or Gyokeres to watkins from gw7 to 12

[marsh palm]

no way am i selling palmer for 1 game

[cedar hull]

Not even for dango

[modern vector]

If Gyokeres goes a few games without arsenal winning a pen

[marsh palm]

i can always do rogers for dango straight up

[hollow ermine]

Of course we can’t tell now but doesn’t look like there’s an answer to that

[marsh palm]

i’ve heard no noise about him outside of here so

[hollow ermine]

Gyokeres fixtures from gw7 to 12 im owning almost every week tbh

[broken patio]

0.1% owned btw

[hollow ermine]

Saka probably isn’t out up to that point

[cedar hull]

I heard dangos up for Burkina Faso presidency

[hollow ermine]

But man

[wanton whale]

triple ars from gw7

double defense gyok

[cedar hull]

Whoever's doing pick1 pick dango for me

Thanks in advance

[hollow ermine]

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking

[hollow ermine]

If saka fit

Easy own

[wanton whale]

depends

id rather gyok than saka

[hollow ermine]

Saliva
Peri peri sauce
Chokeres

[wanton whale]

both is fine ig

[cedar hull]

Gyok and double Def better tbh

Need those pens

[marsh palm]

maybe i do rogers for dango lol

[hollow ermine]

Looking at saka weekly hauls though

[modern vector]

Maybe Eze if he cooks

[hollow ermine]

Will hurt

[wanton whale]

our fullbacks have been overperforming icl

calafiori 1 goal 2 assists wtf

[modern vector]

could be eze on set pieces too

[wanton whale]

timber freak game

[hollow ermine]

The game would’ve have so much easier the past couple years if any of the budget Arsenal midfield were good

[hollow ermine]

That Martinelli season 🕊️

[marsh palm]

huh

[hollow ermine]

Reference

[cedar hull]

Please tell me you kids know what Skyrim is

[marsh palm]

rogers for dango and then esteve for romero

[marsh palm]

never played

[cedar hull]

I've reached unc status

[modern vector]

as long as palmer is fine I don't necessarily need to make a transfer

[marsh palm]

same

he probably isn’t tho

[cedar hull]

Yeah but dango is right there lol

[modern vector]

🍡

[marsh palm]

classic propaganda is only making me consider dango even more

[marsh palm]

wouldn’t even be a follower since i liked him after i read up on his metrics

but if he blanks vs sunderland

[lone thorn]

i only know roblox fortnite Nickeh30 outfit drip royale subathon pal, tf is skyrim

[cedar hull]

[elder cargo]

Stormcloaks forever

[waxen river]

I have no idea what to do with my team

[marsh palm]

i have a similar setup and as of right now i’d just play esteve and roll

[subtle cove]

nah esteve in net

[waxen river]

Scenes if esteve is injured

[slim bane]

Yes he was

[valid river]

What are we doing with Watkins and Rogers?

[subtle cove]

idk

[valid river]

Helpful

They have good fixtures but god did it look bad

[oak furnace]

yes or no?

current team

[valid river]

Bench boost :)

More points than my team

I have 5 players who blanked

[subtle cove]

i hope the pattern doesnt continue

[valid river]

I have 6/7 players blank

Haaland, Watkins, Rogers, palmer, Evanilson, Reijnders

[waxen river]

677777 boiiii

[valid river]

Captained haaland

[waxen river]

Sorry

[valid river]

It's dire

Horror start to the season ngl

Are we still keeping Watkins + Rogers for fixtures?

[silent jasper]

I might not depending on which players are good to get
Could do Palmer + Watkins to Under 6.0 mid and Haaland

[valid river]

I might do palmer to Cunha

I'll get rid of palmer and then he'll get a hat trick vs Fulham or Brentford

[subtle cove]

why not both?

[obtuse shoal]

Finally a play on how you actually pronounce his name
Instead of that reindeer stuff

[copper hinge]

6/6 here

Also Haaland cap

[valid river]

Hell yeah we're fucked

[copper hinge]

Wtf do we do

[obtuse shoal]

Wc3 really sounds bad. Right before ib and transfer window ending.

[little delta]

It is bad

Shit gw but at least i have pedro and capped salah

[copper hinge]

I'll try to stay calm for now

My biggest problem is other people panicking and killing prices

[little delta]

I still like my team a lot

Everyone has good fix gw3

But if palmer is out, i might take a hit for haaland

[stray jungle]

Are Saka and RAN fine for the next GW?? Or will I have to use another transfer?

[obtuse shoal]

I might just wanna stay without Haaland. Only bad thing is not having him for gw6

Actually depends a lot on Isak. If he doesn’t go pool I might want him instead of Haaland.

[prime plinth]

Saka likely no chance

[carmine arch]

Completely lost on chip strat rn

[prime plinth]

Team looks fine

[twin ice]

the prophecy is complete

[oak furnace]

oops

i meant ran

apparently ran out 3 weeks

[hallow anchor]

I have the opposite thought in that isak going to Liverpool will spread the Liverpool attacking points out even more

You'll see more isak assisting Gakpo, wirtz assisting isak etc

[oak furnace]

I'm going to hang on and try to wildcard gw4

[obtuse shoal]

Sorry wrote the wrong thing.

[hallow anchor]

Would definitely make me want to get isak

[oak furnace]

i might fh 3

[obtuse shoal]

I meant if Isak doesn’t go, I want ekitike

[hallow anchor]

Ah

[oak furnace]

what would y'all do with this team

[hallow anchor]

Wildcard it

[oak furnace]

ran and palmer injured

[hallow anchor]

Or delete

[oak furnace]

lmao

[obtuse shoal]

That’s why having no bench options suck.

[obtuse shoal]

2ft?

[oak furnace]

Lmao how does that have anything to do with it

yeh 2ft

i think Palmer ran mateta out

[obtuse shoal]

Could’ve solved one injury by just playing your bench options now you need to use your 2

[obtuse shoal]

Why Mateta out?

[oak furnace]

idk palace attack shit without eze

[oak furnace]

that's dumb why would i hold injured players

[slim bane]

Idk what I want more

Mateta goal or nfo triple cs

[stray jungle]

Crap

[oak furnace]

i think i might actually be better with a free hit

[slim bane]

triple cs probs but means mateta will tank some drops

[obtuse shoal]

I’d rather do Watkins or Rogers out than Mateta

[slim bane]

Saka id expect at least 6-8 weeks

[oak furnace]

need mateta goal with nfo attacking returns

[slim bane]

Maybe back for the festive period

If it’s a minor strain

[oak furnace]

I can't get rid of Watkins and Rogers with their run

they will haul the second i sell

[slim bane]

Oh wait I counted wrong

[oak furnace]

brother how many weeks are you thinking lol

[slim bane]

Minor strain is about 4 weeks maybe

Grade 2 is 6-8 weeks

Grade 3 is worse

[oak furnace]

tbh for Liverpool Arsenal i think i want defensive assets

like vvd and Saliba probably get brict

and one side will get a cs

[obtuse shoal]

Had my first Defcon points yesterday

[oak furnace]

who

[slim bane]

wtf semen is alr 7.2M

[slim bane]

Same

Xhaka

[obtuse shoal]

Senesi

[cedar hull]

Got tark DC points gw1

[sudden robin]

I got DC off Ait Nouri GW1

[carmine arch]

Fh4?

[oak furnace]

i might just use 2 transfers and not wildcard

Palmer to mbeumo, ran to vvd

keep some cash

[obtuse shoal]

Yeah using 2fts better I think.

[jolly solstice]

Why ppl doing wc3

[cedar hull]

[little delta]

panick

[hallow anchor]

Because their teams are bad

I feel like I've had a fairly good start and am 2.9m OR

[quick dawn]

im 1.6 mil rank and wced

[oak furnace]

I'm not doing it

i just got injuries so working out my best solution

[quick dawn]

tbh im only worried about ekitike if isak joins

[hallow anchor]

If you need to make lots of moves then use it

[oak furnace]

gonna give Watkins and Rogers one more fans
