If you wanna Captain him then he definitely worth the hit
Fantasy Premier League 22/23
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
A couple of paracetamol's and hopefully he's good to go
I am 3 points behind the leader in our cash league so I really do not want to make any rash moves ( Rash(ford)) moves ... ey ey ey ... I should be a comedian.
Is anyone else taking the risk of binning off Salah and taking a few hits in order to fit in a few Utd players?
Can’t decide whether to go Bruno/Alvarez or Shaw/Gundogan
I want Shaw and Bruno but am blocked.
Could easily see Shaw get a 9 pointer in one of those games. I am playing Schaar otherwise and would have Shaw for final game.
But Bruno in a double is a potential must!! I don’t know

Thinking Antony and Garnacho for last hurrah, had a wank season anyway.
unfortunately for me he’s the only one with a high enough value to allow me to make the required changes while taking as few hits as possible. I’ve got my bench boost to play but have a couple injured players on there currently, so to replace them to make the boost worthwhile he’d have to go. My main rival is currently 18 points ahead so something drastic is needed.
Going with this team :
Raya
Shaw, Estu, TAA
Salah, Grealish, Rashford, Mac
Haaland, Alvarez, Martial
Kepa, Mee, Castagne, Willock.

Mac, Mitoma, Mahrez, Salah, Bruno (C)

Subs; Steele, Botman, Robertson, Wilson .... it was Mahrez or Foden for me, it's a total punt at this point now it's more or less secure though. Doubting whether Ederson even plays both so that's a last minute toss up, but the -8 to now get someone else in around Steele/Ederson is pointless now

Man Bruno is gonna punish me isn't he?

No Haaland? Brave fella.
Nah cos Haaland still scores a couple. And you'll have put Antony in over Rashy, who scores a screamer.
Gakpo (probably won’t play last game for the Firmino farewell) and Isak out, Bruno and Alvarez (yes I am in the club) in.
I am also keeping Wilson in the 11 and betting that Mitoma gets a rest against Southampton.
Defence is a bit of a mess but a -8 doesn’t get me any more games.
de Gea
TAA - Schar - Estupinan
Salah - Mahrez - Rashford - Bruno
Wilson - Haaland - Alvarez
Only 40 points clear in mini league but no money involved, so let’s stay aggressive. If it blows up, it blows up.

Right it's getting real.
Mitoma bench and play Isak?
Or assume Isak will be as pony as in the recent double and stick with the greater potential minutes for Mitoma?

United travelling members pictured vs Bournemouth:
De Gea, Butland, Heaton, Malacia, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Lindelof, Maguire, Dalot, Fred, Fernandes, Eriksen, McTominay, Antony, Sancho, Martial, Weghorst
Time to bin Rashy then.

I would take the risk with the useless Mitoma. You get two potential bites of the cherry.
Mate, he's probably traveling solo to not pass on whatever he has to the rest. Wait until tomorrow and let's see if any news comes in.
Possibly, but if he's ill there's every chance of keeping him away from the coach party?
Only 17 in that list and they normally have 20 in a squad don't they?
Think I'm going to so Rashy to Antony.
Risk it for a biscuit.
Monday could just be a painful watch, with 3 of their boys on the bench.
But you have to back the doublers, and no doubt rivals will be in a similar boat.
Have exact money for Rashy+Dalot > Bruno+Lindelof. Both the latter are on the verge of rising so have to make a decision tonight
Casemiro, Shaw and Garnacho are expected to be the 3 missing.
Oh for feck's sake, I did my transfers 14 minutes ago...
I could well be wrong, but I am going off the fact that…
a) de Zerbi rested their best player away to Newcastle, so it’s fair to see a few more could sit out an easier fixture
b) Mitoma was poor in the last game, so if there is a candidate, it would be him.
So in my head, I want the Newcastle forward against Wout Faes over Mitoma vs City.
It could well backfire but I am going to go with my gut.
The Rashy thing has really thrown a spanner... He might miss Bournemouth but then can easily outscore potential replacement players in the final two games.
Just realised I could do Rashy to Mahrez and that's pretty tempting.

Ah now that changes the script entirely.
Would be mad to risk Rashy already getting over a niggle and now ill.
Save him for the other games.
Current team:
Subs: Kepa, Olise, Zinchenko, Henry
I have 1 free transfer with £2.1m in the bank. Now Martinelli and Zinchenko are out for the season, so are prime candidates to transfer out and with Rashford and Trippier doubts they have to go.
Wondering if Martinelli to Bruno and Zinchenko to Patterson or Tarkowski is the way to go, or go for a cheaper option than Bruno and a better defender?
Pope,
Trippier, Shaw, TAA
Mitoma, Rashford, Martinelli, Grealish
Isak, Haaland, Kane

If you can't take a week 37 risk, when can you? Do Antony.
We'll share the highs or the lows together!
Hmm
Trippier n Rashy to 3.9 Everton and Bruno?
Is Bruno that key for -4 versus what Antony will return and Haaland cap?

I've got a 14 points lead on my ML rival so I need to be careful.
Basically my options are:
Rashy to Mahrez
Rashy to Antony
Watkins to Alvarez
Watkins & Rashy to Solanke & Bruno (-4)
I just feel we will want Rashy back so missing one game might not be end of the world.
Antony has looked good but he doesn't return that often...
I think Rashford is a comfortable sell now. He’s not exactly been in great form anyway.
Just checked my rank for the first time since the Brighton Newcastle game. Dropped from 50k to 80k. fecking Wilson.

I'd expect more points from one Rashford game than two of Antony's anyway. I can't get another double in, apart from another United player, so there's isn't any point taking another -4, if Rashys going to play the next game.
Rashy had dropped from his hot run of form, so like @Dan_F suggests it's a decent risk.
Just whether it's a -4 risk to Bruno or in one Antony, who could have smothered himself in points last game out.
If I were you I'd go for one of the first two options.
I've got Mahrez who had a decent haul last double and obvs weighing up Antony. But ill do it tomorrow on wakeup.
Waited all week for news and finally took out Gakpo/Isak for Bruno/Alvarez
Almost immediately after, saw about Rashford. Still such an amateur at times.

Yeah thinking the same. Antony just doesn't scream "haul" whereas Mahrez does, especially if Haaland goes off and Mahrez gets on pens.
Think I'm gonna do Mahrez unless there's concrete info that Rashy is fit.
Can't believe only Shaw is my United doubler
FFS, i am 0.1 short of doing Rashford to Bruno. Fecking shit on a stick. Is it worth doing a -8 do it?
The last GW could be my best one this season, but of course, I choose to strip Wilson of captaincy and went with Isak as a captain right before the deadline. But that is why we love and hate this game at the same time.
Transfered Martinelli out for Mahrez, I believe he is more nailed for double than Grealish for example. Shame I can't get Shaw without taking a hit as I have already three United players.
So, for this GW I go with:
GK: DDG
DF: TAA, Trippier, Estupinan
MF: Mahrez, Bruno, MacAllister, Mitoma, Rashford
CF: Wilson, Haaland(C)
Bench: Raya, Isak, Mee, Mings.
Good luck to everyone.

Planning Rashy to Mahrez this week and Grealish to Odegaard/Trossard next week...
Think that's me done. But will wait until late in case Rashy is fit, in which case I will simply do Twatkins to Alvarez.

Twatkins. Love the way we disrespect players in this thread. Imagine if we were actual managers. "feck off Rashford, you're benched. Blanked last week."To be fair, I also praise them. When he got that 16 pointer a month or so back, I referred to him as Watking
Should I take a free hit to get shaw jnfor stones? Can't decide but wary stones could only play one of the remaining games
