Fantasy Premier League 22/23

Oh feck that idiot.

Yeah spread sheet Ben and a few of the funnier ones like FplProp and Hindu Monkey.
FMLFPL is an absolute laugh most times. Their reaction when games were cancelled because a queen died had me in stitches. :lol:

Edit:

"Vatican Premier League"

I think I will play Trent over Estupid if I burn the transfer.

However doing Estupid to Enciso solves that anyway and brings in Trent who has looked sensational lately going forward. But then that means benching one of Rashford and KDB - so Rashford. And with Shaw also on the bench it's completely going away from Man United, who are at home to Wolves. But that Leicester - Liverpool game screams goals. And Rashford comes on in case KDB gets benched.

I don't mind this overall, now with majority going with Mac I need some new spice.

That leaves a captain conundrum. You will cap salah or a doubler. I’m on Isak at the moment. He had good chances and creates bucketloads
 
Same. Should get something against Leeds and Brighton. If he doesn't I'm blaming Moby.

Haaland hat trick incoming....
I will take another look and may switch to a Brighton boy. Tough fixtures but they are a super attack and can score in those games. I really have nothing to play for in FPL right now. No ML or anything. So can just throw something out there like the armband on Enciso...

Haaland may be rested but Mo Salah vs Thomas or that Kristensen who got smashed for 5 goals by fecking Fulham. Plenty of options
 
Team is locked:

Steele
Estupinan TAA Schar
Rashford Mahrez KDB Mitoma mighty Willock
Isak Haaland

Bench: DDG Jota Lindelof Coufal

Mahrez, KDB and Willock are my only real differentials as everyone has everybody else or equivalents…

I am the same except Salah and Wilson for KdB and Willock. I have Gakpo as first in bench instead of Jota, and I am concerned about that one. I think Leicester will leak serious goals.

No Enciso no party
 
Anyone tempted by enciso instead of Wilson? I already have Isak (c), which Newcastle mid to bring in?
 
Brighton have 2 difficult fixtures.
But assume March to Mac is the obvious play to lock in 3 Newc and 3 Brighton.

Although Martial to Enciso and March to Bruno could be an interesting alternative though for -4. Would also have to bench Bruno which be awkward!

Alternatively Martial is an outside idea to start v Wolves but probably still safer benched in the hope of playing in the week 37 double.

May also need to bench Stones.

But Isak captain and like everyone hope he plays both and not out wide!
 
This might be mad, but captain Trippier with lee/BRI?

No clean sheets in 4 games, but underperforming his xA with about 4 goals, so eventually an assist should come. Has blanked for 7 games which is quite unnormal. Regression to the mean and all that?

Afraid KdB / De Bruyne / Wilson will be rested after 60 minutes or come on with 30 left. So for me it's Salah (the safe route) vs Trippier (the differential route).
 
Still locked in on Isak captain. A rare deviation from Haaland but it feels right this week.

Only real decision is whether to bench Estu for Shaw or Gabriel. Already have DDG so there's a big risk/reward factor with the double up.
 
STEELE
BOTMAN, TRIPPIER, Trent
Salah, Rashy, MAC, MITOMA, Grealish
ISAK, Haaland

Subs: Kepa, Shaw, Watkins, Henry

Does that seem right or should one of Shaw or Watkins start? Maybe Grealish on the bench?

I hate seeing a dgw player on the bench but I'm starting Shaw over Estupinan. I just can't see a Brighton clean sheet in either game. And yeah I probably would start Watkins over Grealish as well. Surely he gets rested again.

I'm happy to play Shaw on bench because United have let me down in defense a lot recently and he has no attacking threat at CB.

I am deliberating between Grealish & Watkins though...

Gah! ffs. I can just see us conceding and then I have to sit through 2 Brighton games hoping he doesn't outscore Shaw's 2 pointer. He might grab an assist and there's always a chance Newcastle could be 0-0 I guess. No way Arsenal don't score against them though. He's back in :lol:

I'll go Estu over Shaw. Man United don't look like keeping clean sheets either.
 
As if that logic works with Pep. :lol:

He'll play whoever he thinks is better tactically vs toffees. And he decides that while taking a shit five minutes before the line ups.

We'll see. I think Grealish and KDB both get rested again. Pep is obsessed with winning the CL.

KDB maybe due to age. They need to win the PL games as well and starting players who haven't played in a while or young dudes like Alvarez is quite risky. Anyway not gonna spent much time trying to predict this guy. He's a lunatic.

Well that's the thing though. They don't even need to beat Everton now that Arsenal have shit the bed and he literally rested them both in the same scenario last week against Leeds.

Yeah I think that home game vs Leeds was his rest game. Full throttle now, no let ups. Arsenal are still one point behind. Anyway like I said feck predicting this guy. Last game he rested others but threw KdB coming back from injury and didn't sub either him or big fella. There's no logic to this morons tactics.

True. I'm just giving my opinion as was asked the question on who to bench and I'm benching Grealish. I'm actually starting to regret owning him becuase he's nowhere near as explosive as Mahrez and Foden anyway. He just gets more minutes.
 
Ederson
Trent Tripper Estupinan
Mac Allister Mitoma Salah Rashford
Alvarez Haaland Isak(C)

Is what I’m going with. Still torn on swapping Estupinan for Shaw and somethings telling me I should have Mahrez in there instead of Alvarez but it means a lot of fecking about and I can’t really afford to take many point hits now.
 
I've stuck Isak in and captained. I'm comfortably ahead in all my leagues so it's a cakewalk at this point.

Looks ok to me. What minute is Ederson losing his clean sheet this week do we think? I go 37.

Same. 70 points clear in the cash league and now trying to win the cup in that one as well because someone thought it would be better to give a prize to the winner of that instead of a 3rd place pay off. Makes sense if everyone is engaged but a load of obvious dead teams won last week with the all those freak results :lol:

I've now got to beat this dead team to advance...

Pope
Castagne Davies VVD
Foden KDB Bailey Martinelli
Firmino Haaland (c) Darwin

Everyone on his bench is long term injured as well. So basically if Haaland, Martinelli and the City boys smash it I could be in trouble.

I reckon Pep's resting the big hitters this week. He doesn't want to let on but he is desperate for the CL.
 
I know. It's disgusting. Someone who gave up months ago is gonna get an email saying "here's your £60 for winning the cup" in a few weeks.
Next season imma set a second team and not touch it after Gw1 so that I can look at it at the end of the season and cry about it outscoring my actual team that I spend hundreds of hours setting up each week.

Wow, we have a pretty identical team, bar me having Mahrez over Grealish.
Shaw feels risky, but who would he be a better option over? Possibly no-one?
