I did consider that but mount's numbers are AWFUL and Spurs are playing Brentford, who have some of the worst defensive numbers for giving away chances.
Fantasy Premier League 22/23
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Chelsea are playing shite defenses as well. I don't mind Kulu he's good but always more of a creator while the likes of Mount and Saka can get goals. All of them have dgw
Ok maybe Mount then
I actually like Saka most out of then based on the fact he's playing for the best attack out of those teams and seems to be the main man now in that attack. Could do well despite the fixtures and has been in great form.Ok maybe Mount then
Mount is a 1000% fixture play with the man himself having done sweet feckall so far.
Not easy.
Is kepa fit? Is he definitely playing
This issue with those two are:I actually like Saka most out of then based on the fact he's playing for the best attack out of those teams and seems to be the main man now in that attack. Could do well despite the fixtures and has been in great form.

Not easy.
Saka's fixtures aren't exactly appetising (West Ham, Brighton away, Newcastle) and their DGW isn't confirmed and we don't know how they'll be without the Lord and saviour Jesus playing...
Mount is as you say, purely a fixtures play but he's been shite and Chelsea are dog shit going forward. Bournemouth have tightened up defensively since Tavares has gone in goal.
Kulu is an assist machine that can get goals but maybe you're right, Spurs aren't exactly electric.
Almiron could be the best pick after all
It's worth the risk. Just have Ward as backup.
What we thinking about Shaw? He's getting mentioned a lot for fpl but is probably the weakest link in my current draft.
Would much prefer James but can't quite afford him.
Would much prefer James but can't quite afford him.
Martinez, Varane and Dalot all possibly out. We will concede. Hence why I have no United defenders.

The thing that favours Saka is that you at least know his role in the team and that they have been one of the best attacks this season.
With Mount you have the biggest feckboi in Potter who will end up playing him as inverted wingback or something and with Spurs again not sure how good they will be.
So in this case I feel more comfortable going with a settled team who is actually top of the table with maybe not the best fixtures but still decent enough to score in over complete black boxes. Saka being on pens as well is a factor.
On Almiron for now with money to spare but strongly considering going there as sticking with Almiron is a very defensive move I think. Im likely to roll the dice with one of those three. If you feel Kulu is the play go for him it's obviously not a bad move as such
Yeah, my thinking too. Any thoughts on Castagne? Currently have Trippier and Saliba. Got rid of Cancelo and brought Ederson in.
What about…
Ward
Cancelo, Trippier, James
Salah, KdB, Rashford, Martinelli, Almiron
Haaland, Martial
It's really a toss up. I need to play aggressive so Almiron is off the table. I wish I knew when Saka DGW was and if it was 100% happening, then I would get him. It's just worrying how they'll be without Jesus.Yeah.

I can't see myself getting Mount. He just makes my team look like ass on paper
I'll toss a coin between Saka and Kulu tomorrow.
Yeah those two feel like the ones I'd think about as well.
Yeah, Castagne looking quite attractive. Does make some other stuff possible. Leicester have a chance of continuing that bit of momentum. At the moment, I've the following....
Ederson (Ward)
Gabriel, Castagne, Tripper (Neco, Lamptey)
Martinelli, Rashford, KdB, Fernandes (Partey)
Martial, Haaland, Nunez
All in on the Ten Hag bandwagon.

Actually Travares is the shit Bournemouth keeper, Chelsea might spank them and Mount has a guaranteed DGW whereas Arse and Spurs might not (Arse not confirmed and Spurs won't if City and Chelsea draw in the FA Cup). Mount also on pens.
The play is Mount for now until after his double then switch to Kulu or Saka (if that DGW gets confirmed).

Salah
Bruno Fernandes
Rashford
Almiron
Kane
Halaand

looks good but I ain’t too keen on Ben white , could have shaw , cancelo instead him.
Also it is worth having decent bench players because can never guarantee who will start.
My team:
Kepa- risk
James , cancelo , shaw
Foden , almerion , martinelli , rashford , salad
Haaland , martial
subs :
Ward , che adams , trippier , Williams.
Finally ended up with White. Just can't get myself to get in Shaw when all of Dalot, Varane and Martinez are unavailable. Team looks like this :The 2nd one is literally my team except in place of Walker I'll have 1 of Dalot/Shaw/White.
Kepa
Trippier, James, White,
Almiron, KDB, Rashford, Martinelli,
Darwin, Haaland (c), Kane
Bench: Ward, Patterson, Da Silva, Bueno.
Good luck everyone!
No one has Toney?
Are we sure he isn't gonna play?
I decided on this one and now I'm gonna sleep until deadline is over so I can't tinker more
Kepa
Gabriel - Walker - Trippier
Martinelli - KDB - Almiron - Rashford - Trossard
Haaland - Kane
Bench: Ward, Mitrovich, Patterson, Bueno
Although a part of me wants to play Patterson this round as Wolves have a hard time scoring

Is Mitro fit? Can't find anything. Currently on Wilson, but badly want Mitro. Was potentially Going to cap him in the double, but not now.
I think the real chaos is gonna be all the rotation in midweek.
Didn't like the idea of a good defender or goal threat benched, so have ditched Shaw and instead brought De Gea in. Covers United defence, and Shaw might not play all 3 back to back games anyway with Malachia around.
Last question, who to switch Dunk (4.7m) to? I have 0.7m.
Botman at 4.4m a good cheapy but goody? Anyone else and reasoning, bearing in mind the other boys probably play ahead of them.
Any other last thoughts?
De Gea (Ward)
Trippier Cancelo James (White) (Dunk)
KDB Martinelli Rashy Almiron (Andreas)
Haaland Darwin Martial

Anyway locked into this...

Kane / Haaland / Darwin
Only draft I haven't tinkered with in 24 hrs.
Good luck all.

Dalot/Shaw and Foden or Cancelo and Almiron?
I like it as I have 13 of these.
What's the plan for the 2.3m? This is probably the key time of year to have a string 15 with games thick and fast. That Wolves defence is poor.
I have garnacho and Andreas in midfield as budget buys. If Garnacho does well he is an absolute steal. Might never play though
No Cancelo? Looks dope though. Good luck!
You faced the who to bench decision I did. Almiron is risky though. He was on return every week mode pre world cup.
I'm locked in:
Kepa
Cancelo, Trippier, James
KDB, Rashy, Mount, Martinelli
Martial, Haaland, Darwin
Subs: Ward, Andreas, Patterson, Bueno
(0.6 left over)
Good luck one and all!

Love the way you leap around. What happened to Kane.
And who is the midfield Haaland above? Rashford?
But unfair having 2 Haalands but looks good otherwise
Yes Rashy, edited
I thought about it and my reasoning was:
To get Kane, I had to downgrade Cancelo, which I don't mind because his attacking numbers aren't great this year but the alternatives are depressing. I could have gone White, Shaw, Walker etc but they're all boring and as you said, City have two DGW so need a defender from them...
Also would have to drop Andreas who is the best 5th mid and also had DGW.
It would leave my team rigid and I'll be screwed if for instance Martial gets injured, I don't have the bank to go up to Mitro...
And then thought if after all the above, Kane gets booked, I'll get too annoyed.
Thanks, I have gone with:
Sanchez
Cancelo Trippier James
Rashford Mahrez Kulusevski Almiron
Kane (c) Haaland Martial
Steele, Schär, Perisic, Andreas
