I am doing Gvardiol to Taa this week. (just confirmed it, taa is about to rise in price)

I kinda dont want to do Porro to Virgil until next gameweek, but i might just do it this week. Probably not tho, Leicester is such a good fixture for Porro. And i should perhaps just be patient

#

I dont understand, but ive had 30 points every week for the last 10 gameweeks. I feel like i pick quality players, am i just unlucky or something? I put myself a goal to hit top 20k. And every season it fumbles in the 2nd half.

#

Like the problem for the last few weeks have been Isak and Salah blanking and idk taa, mbeumo, wood before i had them.

Idk, i bought Ødegaard because hes on pens until Saka is back, and when Saka is back i want him, so i thought itd be great. But was that a misstep too. Im overthinking and questioning everything now, because its gone so bad. From top 10k to 2mill this season is awful

#

@bleak lotus @cyan canopy what do you fantasy football helpers think? what am i doing wrong?

#

Well you dont have Isak

#

Hes been killing your rank

#

Just chill a bit, your team is not terrible. Just a few structural problems in it (defence mainly) but you got good players

#

like not having Isak last 7 weeks kills anyones rank

How you would you change my defence structure?

I have the main attacking 3 and then i got the attack bench option (Munoz), and the cheap playing 4m Van Den Berg as a last bench option

#

I did just sell Gvardiol to Taa like ive planned for a long time to do this week

#

But the structure is still the same

#

bleak lotus like not having Isak last 7 weeks kills anyones rank

Isak has 87 points last 9 gw's. Thats 11 points per game. If he played like that for a season he would have 348 points

#

That is crazy

#

From 51 points in gw13 to 137 points in gw22 is nuts

#

But theres no way i can afford him

#

next ravine How you would you change my defence structure? I have the main attacking 3 and ...

Timber Munoz Gvardiol and Porro are all premium defenders

#

One of them ideally should be someone like a cheap forest defender or something like that

#

But its not a disaster just means u have less money elsewhere

next ravine Jan 20, 2025, 1:08 PM

#

And play Munoz every week? He plays for crystal palace, premium?

bleak lotus Jan 20, 2025, 1:08 PM

#

hes 5m or above

#

think hes 5m flat yeah

#

money is money team doesnt matter you could have had guehi instead if you wanted to bench a palace player every week

next ravine Jan 20, 2025, 1:09 PM

#

got him a lot cheaper as a bench option, never really, honestly considered him as a starter, but you would play munoz every week?

bleak lotus Jan 20, 2025, 1:09 PM

#

how much was he for you?

next ravine Jan 20, 2025, 1:10 PM

#

Hes 4.8 sell value now, so maybe i got him at 4.6 or 4.7

bleak lotus Jan 20, 2025, 1:10 PM

#

maybe premium isnt the word but too expensive to bench every other week

#

if hes that cheap then its just fine ignore me

#

thought he was 5m

#

But yeah your problem can be summarized in four letters, Isak

next ravine Jan 20, 2025, 1:11 PM

#

Ok so my defence now is taa, timber, porro, munoz, van den berg. Roll? What should i aim to do long term. Porro to Virgil?

bleak lotus Jan 20, 2025, 1:11 PM

#

Porro to someone, as spurs defence is shite

#

virgil is fine but so is many others

next ravine Jan 20, 2025, 1:12 PM

#

Virgil has played 90 minutes every single game this entire season for Liverpool. And tbh this looks pretty juicy

#

Hes expensive tho

#

Say i got a 4.4m instead i could use those 2m on my attacking players

#

Neco Williams maybe

#

But Raul Jimenez being 5.6 and Isak 9.4. Thats like 3.8m, with future price rises, 4m. Thats a lot of money. Isak is very annoying, hes so expensive

cyan canopy Jan 20, 2025, 2:02 PM

#

bruh

#

you got ode instead of isak

#

you say you got ode because hes on pens

#

but have you watched a single arsenal game and thought wow he looks like a good asset

#

no gordon either instead you're benching munoz and enzo and starting 2 kinda crap cheap forwards

watched all their games in december, but havent had a subscribtion this month. i dont remember if ødegaard was back then, but looking at the highlights ødegaard looks fine, but not like a WOW option. So i guess you have a good point

whos the 2 kinda crap cheap forwards? joao pedro and raul jimenez?

#

Whats the ideal structure in forwards and midfielders?

#

I dont see a way outside salah+palmer which takes a lot of money. I could downgrade Ødegaard to Rogers/Amad and play him every week, but they are worse picks than say Pedro and Jimenez, but they again, id get 3m i could use to upgrade Jimenez to 8.5. But thats still 1m off Isak, so im not really seeing the solution here.

#

Then id also have to downgrade Taa to a 4.5 and start Munoz every week. Now i have 3m. That means i can upgrade Jimenez to Isak

#

And i still have 2m left so i can upgrade Joao Pedro as well

#

That would be 7.5m, close to a Solanke. Or i could keep Joao Pedro and just use those 2m on a better player than Rogers Amad, like 7.5m

#

Thats like a Gordon i guess
