Fantasy Premier League 20/21

People who don't check early team news are the real winners today.

People with lives who don't spend all night animatedly refreshing numerous forums and twitter :lol: :lol:

I'm just holding myself about how close I came to risking Salah to Son :eek:
 
Wasn't too worried about Salah being benched to be honest. Knew klopp would likely give him half an hour either way and against tired legs that's enough for the likes of him. Wasn't going to be my captain anyway but kept him in the starting lineup

Life's probably easy for you isn't it :lol:
 
Risky to make an early move this week with LC QFs and players certainly mixing with families and being re-tested for COVID before and after Xmas.
I've had a bad couple of GWs so just taking risks with these past few transfers.

I have still have my wildcard so not overly worried if it backfires slightly as I don't have any injury concerns in my squad.
 
So I didn't watch the game. I wake up and it's 7 nil. Wtf!!!!!

I thought me dodging Salah paid off! Jesus Christ what a failure. League leader gets all those extra points.

Also glad I took the captaincy off Mahrez now dodged one! Really hope Bruno does the business.

Man feck this game, all the early leaks and it still backfires.
 
For nearly 12m you have to be expecting a 230+ points player. I don’t think he will be that this season although he will get games with high points which will inevitably prompt people quoting those posts with ‘I told you so’. So far he’s at 56 from 13 games (of which he has missed 2). I think he will finish just below or slightly above 200.
Think you are probably right . Salah is worth every penny while KDB isn't going to give us that returns. Should have stick with Salah ffs.
 
Can't believe Salah :lol:

I'm not too fussed as most of my rivals and myself have him but not as Captain. I just thought it would be funny if he did a small cameo for all those who got him in this week.

Robertson did me proud today. Going to keep him one more week then get rid to bolster my funds for Kane. Although a part of me wants to keep him as he's a differential in my league for me but 7.1 for a defender and relying on assists doesn't feel worth it.
 
I have gotten complete lost this week since the last weekend. Two terrible scores in the 30’s and Salah today. I don’t know what I am doing wrong this year. It’s really frustrating.
 
Don't think KDB is gonna match Salah here and he's got a yellow to boot.

Pretty disastrous decision swapping them out two weeks ago.

That's the big issue with rotating the big boys. At some stage it will butt hump you.
Have settled on the big 3 in midfield. But still almost got tempted to split them up after 1 week!
 
That Salah returns completely ruined. Convinced myself to no get him this week because of the news about him getting subbed. On top of the that, the guy leading my mini-league had him as captain.

With that Salah points, he will have 150+ points lead as of now! Is there any chance that I can catch him?

Yeah I thought that Aguero would have started, and with Southampton looking like they were flagging a bit, that City would do well.

I also reckoned Crystal Palace would give Liverpool a game :lol:
 
So frustrating being a De Bruyne owner watching his teammates cock up every chance he lays on a plate.

Of course. Those sorts of overhauls happen every season. You probably need two excellent months at least up to May though, and I mean excellent.
 
That yellow (which was BS) ruined any bonus for KDB glad I didn't captain him in the end. Let's see if he can do anything in the last 10,though his team mates always let him down.
 
I don't get that. 2 amazing chances for Mahrez and he fecked em up royally.
 
De Bruyne could have had more assists, but he should score with his big chance.
Something is not right with him. He misses far too much and City too.
 
If it weren’t for the leader of our league captaining Salah I would be delighted with this start. Salah with 16 and Dias with 9. I should be jumping a place or two in my league.

They did for 30mins and could have easily been leading.
But obviously a 7-0 will go into the archives as a totally one way game.

Yep. Those 2 for me too. De Bruyne 5 pointer isn't superb but better than nothing.

Need a DCL goal tonight both for some points and to ensure some giggles on the FAM TV tonight.
 
Walker, Stones and Cancelo all second best bonuspointwise on 27 bps in today's game - do they all get 2 pts then?
 
Thought that was DCL doing a Kane there, claiming a goal he hasn't even touched.

But his header onto Holding so surely gets an assist?

Has the assist currently yes.
Reckon he'll grab a goal tonight too. Hope he does - so many in my league have inexplicably got rid of him.

Amongst the changes I considered was Salah & DCL to Son & Kane.

Now those 2 might haul - but wouldn't look too pretty right now would it!
 
Not having Salah is killing me, had him until he got Covid then transferred him out for Bruno which was perfectly fine. Then instead of bringing him back I got KDB.
KDB and Wilson out
Salah and Welbeck in

Worth it?
 
Considering getting rid of KdB. Maybe I'm mad, but his finishing has been off, and City are just not themselves these days.

Very equal game against Soton, and they even time-wasted in the corner in the last 5 minutes. Very unusual for a Pep team. Not many expected goals in them at the moment

KDB out before Newcastle at home is dangerous.
But then a rested Salah home to WBrom is critical for next week.

Got to get through the next game week first then very probably worth while.
Have to have one eye on having enough coverage for the reduced game week 18 fixtures and also covering Tottenham for Fulham at home on.
 
Dias set to get 3 bps. Nice.

Benched him as I have Adams and I expected Saints to score with how well they are playing. They should have scored too.

Need Lamptey miss out now so I get his 9pts off my bench.
