Fantasy Premier League 22/23

I'm not sold on him yet. The last game he barely touched the ball and only got the points thanks to a penalty and also turns into Welbeck in front of goal.

And as we have all cottoned onto Wilson's trolling, I bet that cnut will become fit to play every time you own Isak so he can carry on trolling you even when you don't own him
Yeah he had 0,1 xG vs Bournemouth which was the main game. Haaland and Mitrovic are pretty much locked for most, third for me is Kane, and Isak for some who used WC. Then there's Toney. I'll get Jesus back after his blank though.
 
If Brendan gets sacked this week I might try cash in on Maddison's upcoming fixtures, otherwise it's a bit hard to countenance after they've conceded 22 goals no?
 
58 points for me and I still have 4 players yet to play.
salah, TAA, Allison & cucurella.


Havnt used any bonuses yet. Might use a wild card and shift out the majority of the Liverpool lot. They look finished.

So far ranked 363,000

Hmm
 
I thought i had made haaland captain, turns out i had kane as captain. I apparently didn't click the save button.

Big differentials there.

think I’ll do a wild card and remove salah and Allison at least. Potentially Saka too. A necessity to have 3 city players in the first XI at all times. Also need to swap out the subs bench a bit. Of course I’ve gone all out on the first team which could bite me with injuries.

This is true but I think you can get 6 pointers quite consistently with even the likes of Toney or Mitro over the next run of games.

He was on 2 but then lost 1 point for the yellow and one of those 2 bonuses.
Yep there is always that striker who will get 6 quite often but not go beyond it.
Costa at Chelsea used to be aggravating for into!

How do people keep doing this?
Surely you make the change, check it. Sign out, check it again etc.
 
That Leicester double 4m keeper thing felt smart...for about 3mins of game 1.
I nearly went for the double up but it just felt too good to be true. Luckily I went with Sanchez + Ward which for the most part has worked okay. But whenever Ward has stepped in it's been painful. Guy is so out of his depth it's unreal!
 
Thought the WC'ers would have trampled me. Didn't need to use any chips and no transfer hits. Only dropped 60K

54 points
OR: 320,000

I'm dropping Salah for the first time since a year or more ago.
Thinking KDB as my primary premium midfielder

Activated my WC
Keeping Haaland and trying to figure out which two other strikers

Having fun figuring out the defence, too
 
Yeah I know, this is an incomplete game week I assume? On further assumption, think I'll do the wildcard after the WC now. Players may start to break down due to an overloaded schedule.
Yeah :) cancelled a while back (pre deadline). It’s why so many people piled out of Liverpool and Chelsea (unless WCing and keeping a couple on the bench as future planning)
 
Son just f*cked up the whole thing for me in my private league :( Now decison to stick with Salah for gw9 or bin him
 
A playing £4.0m goalkeeper is golddust.

Unless said keeper is Danny Ward :lol:

Can't be far off the 3.9m Iverson taking over... with a nice run of fixtures and the classic new manager boost. Who's actually got the balls to start him though?

I think the midfield is much more difficult to figure out than the defence. Cancelo, Trippier and one of the Chelsea lot feels like the go-to. Midfield is a bit of a minefield. Nobody is a lock really (Martinelli at a push?) and there's loads of mid priced players that are worth consideration. Currently on Saka, De Bruyne, Martinelli, Bailey, and Andreas Pereira but that feels inadequate, despite Saka and KdB returning well this weekend.
 
41 points with no chip. Maybe I should have done the wildcard. But I doubt if I would have taken in Son, leave alone making him captain.

Anyways, onto the WC now.
 
Why are so many people wildcarding? Is it just because they don't want to waste it given the upcoming WC? I have a max of 4 players I'm thinking of taking out and even that's a bit of a strech. And no my team is not that special and pretty template.
TAA Diaz Dasilva N.Williams Ward. That's it.
Diaz I can very easily keep and then there are 3 bench fodders. I'm guessing most active managers have KDB Haaland Jesus one of Toney/Mitro and some Newcastle/Arse/Chelsea defense. What's the point? What am I missing?

The second Leicester didn't bother to replace Schmeichel you knew something was seriously up with them this year.
 
Ugh. In the middle of renovating our house and completely forgot about fantasy football. Got 9 players out at best but had two free transfers to use before my wildcard.

It’s fair to say my run near the top of the league is over. First time I’ve “forgotten” to set my team in years, and on such a crucial week.
Did you lose out much?
 
Jesus christ, no 1 in the world runs with a fourmium :drool::eek: Son, KdB, Kane, Haaland

Then Martinelli, Andreas, Trippier, Cancelo, Saliba, Williams, Henderson and no bench options
 
And what happens if Liverpool start monstering it again and you don't have those two, especially TAA?
Oh Jesus you're right, i just didn't want to admit it to myself. I would tell myself it will be okay, Liverpool will continue being shit, Trent's a has-been shit wanker right back now and Salah is playing too wide and not worth the 13 million comparing his contributions to KDB. But being truthful it's been giving me sleepless nights ever since i took them out, just worrying about this inevitable huge haul and the destruction of my fantasy league hopes and dreams in just one gameweek.

My Fantasy League life...over just like that.

I tried telling myself "IT'S JUST A GAME, LIFE GOES ON, IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD IF SALAH HAULS" but I just don't know how i will live with myself.

Let's hope they do continue to stink things up.
I'd just be very nervous with TAA, as he can easily get an assist and cleany combo and you're suddenly facing a double digit punishment.
Salah has certainly not lived up to 13m this season - we've all gone on rep.
