This is what scares me the most while getting him.
Fantasy Premier League 22/23
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Leicester have a tasty double and excellent fixtures (apart from City in GW31).
Considering doubling up on Maddison and Iheanacho... will also have Ward for the DGW29 but have no faith in their defence..

It's a good squad managed by the biggest clown ever known to mankind. Baffles me how that guy still has a job out there. Only thing that can explain the kind of decisions he makes on a game to game basis is @JPRouve 's earlier post about Scotland undergoing an opioide crisis.
Other than that Madders nursing an injury is slightly concerning. But more than that, do people think there's any logic in keeping Salah for the double in 29? I know it's a tough one but he has an insane record vs City (most goals he has scored is vs United, then City is number 2). And after that a home game vs Arsenal and then a great run including the best double in 34 for which every man and his dog will end up with him. But do I let him go for now and get him back later or carry through the next couple of tough games and possibly bag some differential points?
The only way for me to get Madison is to sell Saka... Don't think that's worth it
Waiting until the games today to decide about next steps, I now only have 7 players for the next GW and no Kane (terrifying) so the options are:
A) Salah, Darwin -> Maddison, Kane for -4, field 9 players in 28 and BB as planned in 29 with 11 doublers, keep WC and FH for later (WC after 29 perhaps?). Or even -8 and do as well Patterson -> Chilwell?
B) FH now, somehow navigate GW32 without FH
C) just pull the trigger on the WC now (feels so crap before the international break) which allows me to get 11 decent players for 28 and a solid BB team for 29, a few potential differentials too
On paper using one of the chips feels like a no-brainer. FH is cool, but in 29 I'll still end up with Salah/Darwin which I don't really like so much for the doubles and for the BB still gotta move Patterson. Wildcard is not a bad shout, I'd bring a Chelsea defender and increase my Newcastle stack, switch Odegaard to Martinelli, secure Kane and ensure I have money to bring Haaland back in GW30. The only worry is this fecking international break.

Most of the FPL so called experts have put Maddison as a buy. So that number may increase.
Meh, keep him. Anyone doubling in DGW is worth keeping hold of in my view. And, he is sure to play both 90min if he is not injured and is their main attacker.
I was on the Maddison train too, but tried to watch highlights of his last couple of games. He wasn't as much involved as I'd hope for. I have him as first sub on my Free Hit, but not prioritising getting him long term.
FFS. Might go back to Miggy boy then.
But then he is owned by a lot more people. Maybe Rodrigo is worth a punt?Worst week since the restart has seen me plummet. Stupid Liverpool.
I need to try and reduce the damage on the FH this week but it’s so difficult to get away from the template.
I fancied Isak, but can’t take out Kane/Watkins/Toney with those fixtures/form.
I fancied Trossard as a differential but then Jesus could start.
Team just looks so uninspired.

Same mate - toying with FH I had many different forward lines including Isak (I really think this lad will do well, but it's stupid his minutes are so uncertain with inferior fan favourite Wilson) and Havertz (troll like no other but on pens and home games) but it's difficult to go other way than the three you mentioned. And I was also fecked by the LFC assets, now I don't want to head into DGW with any of them!

Congrats Mitoma/MacAllister/March cappers, you were smarter than us, stuck with the donkey Ivan.
Ah, gotcha. That's annoying. Guaranteed he flops now then too!
Let's go Big Mac!
Its a pity the others have such good fixtures as I would love to have gone Isak and Havertz on the FH, but you have to believe that Toney and Watkins will return given their fixtures and I am not betting against Kane either.
The Solly March non goal is yet another piece of freakish bad luck.
I’ve decided 1 more of these type incidents - where it’s objectively odd bad luck, and I’m leaving my leagues.
Had too many of these bizarre ones this season and not enjoying it - one more and I’m fecking it off, and will be glad to do so!

There is no conclusive evidence one way or the other. It's not like he smashed it in and wasn't given.
Looks like Maddison's price is going to rise tonight. FFS. I have to do it today if I want to get him.
I understand your frustrations, FPL does this to most of us
In recent years, ive tried to just treat it as a bit of fun and not get too wound up over any so called run bad.
So sit back and just enjoy the game.
Myself ... I have failed miserably in all the above and will shortly have my pings set on Flashscores for every goal and no doubt will annoy the hell out of my wife with my constant waling when every ping is a goal/assist for a player i really needed to blank this week.
Tomorrow is another day.
March!
Hopefully FPL won’t take this goal away from March
Finally something for Sorry March owners. 
Forget March, a Mitoma captaincy assist
#JusticeforSolly
Proper rank killer with only Mitoma non captained
Also, on a side note, if we already didn't have Rashford and Garnacho on the left, I would have wanted us to be all over Mitoma. Looks great!
March!!! And Mitoma!!! Gonna enjoy my wank tonight!!
Never buying this wanker Trolley ever again
Rank gain back on! Thanks for that Mitoma (c) and March goal.
He's a troll.
Forget March, a Mitoma captaincy assist
Same.
Yes Solly. Pure justice.
No your not. You'll just complain here and carry on playing
To think we could be comfortably sitting on Mitoma points
A joy to watch, makes things look easy and very good at popping up the right places
What's he done again? Watching the Brighton game but don't they have a lot of time to get a goal.
I agree with your overall sentiment though. I have been calling him Trolley for sometime here. Never scores when you want him to.
You mean when the returns on betting against him scoring are high?
Truth be told about Toney, I'm watching this shitshow of a game and his teammates are abysmal, he's got zero service

He’s done nothing of note so far.
Schade playing tonight next to him - seems he’s a target for crosses instead of Toney when he plays. Also happened last game when he was subbed on.
