Now that Martinelli is in I'm half tempted to captain him.
I have it on him at we speak. Waiting on Saka news before its go time though.Now that Martinelli is in I'm half tempted to captain him.
Will keep Foden and ship Maddison in stead with the new injury update on him.I have some serious issues with my defense and it looks like I have to take a hit somewhere down the line to "fix" it, but this week my FT will be this:
Foden -> Mitoma (6,5M), Eze (6,1M) or Hwang (5,5M) to free up some money for Salah in double move in before GW14.
Numbers so far this season (From understat):
Mitoma (3G/4A): 0,35xG/90 + 0,21xA/90 - 0,56xG+A/90 - Plays for the best attacking team of the 3, not on penalties, but they have only Chelsea and Arsenal (both away) as really tough fixtures the next 7 games (will WC into GW19)
Eze (1G/2A): 0,31xG/90 + 0,33xA/90 - 0,64xG+A/90 - Talisman for CP, on pens (they haven't got any so far this season), good run of games, but VP play Roy ball which means sitting back a......LOT.
Hwang (6G/2A): 0,42xG/90 + 0,27xA/90 - 0,69xG+A/90 (Same as Saka including pens) - Finally nailed in the team, could be talisman now that Neto is out, has a good run of fixtures (Spurs defense is a trainwreck this GW). Negative is that Wolves looked horrible against SHU in the weekend.
I will not buy any Brentford players before GW18
Who do I go for this GW?
Team before transfer:
Johnstone (Turner)
Tripps, Cash, Tsimikas (!!??) (Al-Dakhil and Lamptey - Horrible bench)
Saka, Bruno, Gordon, Foden (Maddison)
Haaland (C), Watkins, Darwin
Will most likely roll transfer nest GW and do Bruno & Maddison -> Salah & Palmer/Hwang into GW14, and hope I have 3 playing defenders...

I prefer higher upside so would drop Pau. Or Mags if you bring him in, which could be a good transfer.Have a nice team with the big hitters, but obviously a lack of flex in the lower value players.
Areola (Turner)
Gabriel Trippier , Pau, Tsim (Lascelles)
Salah (c), Son, Saka, Luiz (Palmer)
Haaland, Watkins
Actually considering Pau to Maguire, as I have 2 freebies, and don't want to lose any of the big hitters I've only just wildcarded in. Would save 0.3m too.
Palmer over any starter defender? Stung me for 12 points on the bench last week!
@Dirty Schwein @CassiusClaymore @Moby @BootsyCollins @troylocker @Amir @others
Thats no good. I know if i captain him he will be on the bench and come in the last minutes, Saka that is.Already had it. Non committal from Arteta as usual. Didn't train yesterday, see how he is today blah blah blah. Can't be arsed with him
Reward higher from Palmer, but so is the risk. He seems to play really good for Chelsea at the moment, and is involved in most of what they do.Have a nice team with the big hitters, but obviously a lack of flex in the lower value players.

Palmer over Tsimi.
Liverpool home to Brentford though, over Chelsea playing Man City?
Was a bit of a freak Palmer filling his boots v Tottenham.
Ive captained Evan Ferguson against Sheff Utd this weekend and dropped Haaland to the bench as he did nothing home or away against Chelsea in the league last season.
Maddison out till January, the early transfer was not wrong. Let's hope Saka is not injured though
Yeah I'd go palmer over tsimHave a nice team with the big hitters, but obviously a lack of flex in the lower value players.

I think it'll affect him in that the team is worse but Son is a great scorer of individual goals as well, so I think he'll be OK but not as good.Start of Tottenham's inevitable drop to 6th.
Wonder how much this'll affect Son.
I took the arm band off Haaland , never thought of Bowen. Hojlund is another option, but I played it safe and went with Salah.Taking the risk and captaining Bowen against Forest this weekend. Could work out great in catching up some ground in my work league or completely back fire, the latter I imagine.
Think Dyche said Branthwaite is a doubt and Moreno is back. That back 3 could be in trouble. I'm benching Tsimi for Lascelles and going double Newcastle with Trips in there.Ederson
Digne, Branthwaite, Tsimikas
Salah, Son, Gordon, Bowen, Saka
Haaland, Alvarez
Subs: Areola, Kabore, Estupinian, Archer
Thinking to do:
GW12 - Ederson to Raya
GW13 - Digne to Saliba
GW14 - Bowen to Mbeumo
How does that sound?

I'm hoping Moreno don't come straight in and I have Kabore to step in for Branthwaite.Think Dyche said Branthwaite is a doubt and Moreno is back. That back 3 could be in trouble. I'm benching Tsimi for Lascelles and going double Newcastle with Trips in there.
I'll probably just start Kabore given his form and fixture this GW.I'm hoping Moreno don't come straight in and I have Kabore to step in for Branthwaite.
Ok I will!I'll probably just start Kabore given his form and fixture this GW.
Our run of good fixtures is short so I think I would avoid Maguire now and I’d play Palmer over Tsimi.Have a nice team with the big hitters, but obviously a lack of flex in the lower value players.

Oh, I really feel that. I have him in. That's where the sirens should start going off for you.Is it mad to be thinking of bringing in Højlund?? Surely he’s due a prem goal?

Yeah it could be Son to be fair but it gives me a few weeks to see how things go.First two sound fine. I suspect you'll want to change that GW14 transfer by then though.
Good to have a plan mind.![]()
Will dalot be dropped ?
I find this sudden Martinelli hype insane. Arsenal have hardly been an attacking force and he's hardly been great in that run.
Saka is much more reliable.
