Fantasy Premier League 2024/25

I hear you but I just feel Diaz is a rotation risk, not on pens and it's a bit more of a lottery. Hes probably worth it for 2gameweeks before changing it up though.
What's your view on Raul Jiminez. At 5.4m and now first choice for Fulham, I feel he's overlooked. Half a mil less than DCL which isn't a small amount.
Yep. In the words of Chris Jericho (before his titties went weird and his act got stale)
"(Jao Pedro) ............. you just made the list!!!"
Mbuemo and Gabriel look set to rise twice in a week. I’ve never gained a full 0.1 from a player not playing before within the space of a week. Thanks to all the wildcards I got 2 now.
Nice one injuries, fecking up my team.
It was between him or Welbeck 2/3 GWs ago for me, off course I went for the wrong player.
Wildcards aren't supposed to affect price changes believe it or not. Don't be surprised if they don't rise again tonight.
I don't believe it. I've made money on Diaz and I sold Robinson thinking there's a price freeze but clearly not.
That's not what he meant. WC transfers don't affect whether players go up or down. But if you own those players on WC you obviously still get the price changes.
I'd try to have both TAA and Mbuemo. Arse double attack without Ødegaard is not ideal. Havertz seems surplus.
I can go even worse than that. I went Welbeck, he blanked and I swapped to Pedro on my wildcard and Welbeck started scoring again.
Is Jiminez definitely first choice now? I'm debating between him and Ndiaye for my cheap striker. If I knew Jiminez was nailed that'd probably make the decision for me, but concerns of rotation are the main thing putting me off.
Hes not a cert. But he's had 2 goals in 2 starts and Muniz has been very frustrating in terms of finkshing. Fulham create well especially with Iwobi and ESR. They have a better support cast than Everton offer for DCL.
Raul is 0.5m cheaper than DCL but with trickier fixtures. It's a tough one but if it allows for say Watkins it's major.
Haven't been able to watch all of our games but TAA is on corner(s), FKs and just gets in way more advanced positions than Robertson these days, both in midfield and on the wing. But that shows in the difference in price as well of course, so might be a viable alternative...
Looks to have finally added an end product to his game this season under Klopp - Gakpo was great in the cup game this week but don't think he'll be taking Diaz' role going forward if the latter keeps playing like he has been.
Hmm yeah, but Havertz returns in almost every home game and they have Leicester and Soton coming up at home in the next two weeks (and then away to Bournemouth). The only alternative I see is Watkins but he's more expensive and has a much tougher schedule coming up imo. Don't really fancy Jackson.
But they have. Diaz went. Mbuemo went up. Gabriel went up. Pedro went down. All this week. I mean it’s not only wildcards affecting prices but they sure do play a part in it.
feck it, I've bottled rolling my transfer and have just brought in Rico Lewis. I need to start taking risks already if I want to close the 60 point gap.
I'm almost certain now that the team news will leak at 11am tomorrow saying that Lewis is on the bench.

Non WC are doing these transfers too mate.WC shouldn't affect prices unless that's a new rule.

Raya
Trent Gabriel Saliba Lewis Greaves
Diaz Mbeumo Semenyo ESR Rogers
Haaland Watkins Jackson
£0.3m in bank.
Not sure I want to change anything drastically to get Saka in.

I can see your point in Salah being the talisman, but he’s also old, so I think Luis Diaz will have the same amount of minutes and be the “new” Salah to build up by playing him. He just delivers. How can you not play a guy like that?
I think Raul Jimenez is played atm to push Muniz who I think they see a bigger upside in. So too much rotation risk for me unless you got too much money/or a sound plan to only use Jimenez in certain games if you know he’ll start (you’ll only really know if he starts if he’s scored the game before I believe)
It'll be people making transfers and then activating wildcard at the very end of the gw. Pro tip.
Yeah I do this every time.
That’s a risky game to play. Have you ever missed pressing the WC button?
Haha that’s what I meant when I said it’s not the Wildcarders driving up the price. Sorry would have made myself clearer.
Nah, I always check FPL the night before to make sure if I get hit by a bus, at least my team will look ok
That's a good midfield. Arsenal haven't scored more than 2 goals in a game yet so I wouldn't be taking hits to bring Saka in at the moment.
Contemplating captaining Diaz when I have Salah and Haaland?
Is that bonkers?
Is that bonkers?
Yes. I read earlier that only West Ham have conceded more shots on their goal than Newcastle (I can't remember the sample size - it might be for a longer period than just this season). There's every chance Haaland bags another hat trick tomorrow. A Diaz haul isn't as likely.
Correct. Pants and FPL. Let's keep it professional people.
If chasing or a gambler, maybe.
But no guarantee of his minutes and even if does, safer options. There are times to gamble and times to follow the herd
I pick team after last PL game then leave it to night nefore
Unless I’m on the piss Friday (like I am now), in which case I do it Sat morning
Will Raya play or not?
No he's injured.
Do we know this for sure? I thought Arteta was just being Arteta
Do we all take on Gandhi today?
Should I be concerned that my first thought on waking this morning was my WC goalkeeping picks?
Liverpool away to bottom of the league Wolves, who shipped 6 to Chelsea.
Salah averaging 10 points a game yet relative bust last 2.
Haaland tougher game away at Newc who are perceived to have had a crap start but have won 3 out of 5 and only lost 1, but is averaging 12 points a game....
Close one
