Wasn't sure who to bench out of Son/Bruno/Jackson. Went with Jackson. 12 points ahead in my mini league, squeaky bum time. Still around top 35k overall but some bad captain/sub decisions last couple of weeks.

72 all out. I'll take it seeing as I didn't do anything at all with my team the past couple of weeks due to missing deadlines.
Still got Toney and Darwin stinking up the place.

Right decision day. Fairly set on Neto, Zab and Morris out for -8 and will bench boost 11 doublers plus Saka, Gabriel, Reg and Nipples.
A) Onana, Romero, Jackson
B) Petrovic, Van Der Ven, Wilson
@Dirty Schwein @BeforeKeanetherewasRobson @Sandikan
Which one? Wilson seems like he could be a decent differential punt but Jackson looks on it all of a sudden. Have a feeling that Romero is good for a goal as well against Burnley or Sheffield United.

We have the same bench and I'm taking a -4 for a similar move.
I already have two Chelsea so it's Neto to Onana and then Doughty to Gvardiol.
For you, I prefer option 1.
Onana is good for save points moreso than Petrovic and Sanchez might suddenly return with Chelsea not having much to play for.
Romero and vdv are similar but I have vdv and he's been getting 0s and -1s. Been absolutely useless.
Jackson is a good bet but Wilson better choice of you are chasing. There's always that worry that he steps on a Lego and gets injured though and Isak taking pens currently.
Yeah I've got Gusto and Palmer already. I do like Wilson as another differential along with KDB and he's been good to me in the past but maybe that's a differential too many. Jackson probably the better pick for final day as well.
Are you capping Haaland in the double? I need to be different to gain any ground in my mini league (fairly safe for 2nd) so probably gonna go Palmer even if it backfires again like I did this week.
I'm in a shit position. My main rival has a 40 point lead and my only two differentials are Saka (who plays single) and Maddison (who is absolutely useless) so I might as well Captain Haaland and make sure the guy below can't catch me

Ah that's bollocks. Yeah best be safe in that position. I'm 35 off top but 114 clear of second. Top 2 get paid in our league but there's also bonus payout for the cup winner which I'm still in as well. Doubt I'll win that though. Will probably go out this week taking the -8.
Have got some decent points from Petrovic recently, but I think you want Jackson in there right now. He's a bit Nunez, but like he showed this week can haul big potentially.
Romero much more likelihood of scoring than VDV (and of cards in fairness!).
A United keeper when we have 700 defenders out doesn;t scream genius, but would still take A.
All about the save points innit. Reckon we might have a couple back for the double at least.
No mark FPL account has Bruno not playing: https://x.com/FPLMate/status/1787492336584253687 - hopefully nonsense
It's all over twitter tbf. Think it's legit.
Will be annoying with Bruno as lets a couple of people get Jackson's 16 in. Upsetting luck.
I'm 40 ahead of one such guy having trailed by a long way all season. That trims my lead in half almost. Though I hope Garnacho has something to say about things tonight for me.

94 points with Onana still to play.
So 94 points
So 94 points
Don't be so sure.
Punch some twat in the head and concede a few and could be minus figures.
How is Fernandes not going to play in the one week where all and sundry had Jackson on the bench first. I've dropped 3k with an 11/11 team and will drop more.
The luck with people getting Saka, Gordon and now Jackson off the bench recently has seriously been ridiculous.

Yea I'm not going to take part in any leagues from next season. Once friend has Rodri on the bench and another has Jackson. I have Muniz. There's nothing other than luck with those decisions.
So I have 11 doublers and playing BB. A) Tempted to remove Watkins for Jackson but that leaves me with 4 chelsea players. Want to keep gusto and Palmer as my rivals below me have them. So that means I’ll have to remove petrovic for Onana. And have a maguire fire to put out so that leaves me with -8.
B) Or should I remove Watkins for Højlund which would mean I can take -4 and remove maguire with White.
C) stay with Watkins and remove maguire for no hits.
My ML rival who’s 48 pts behind me might go for Jackson and I’m worried that comes back to bite me. Overthinking much?

Anyone who didn't field Jackson at home to a woeful West Ham outfit really doesn't deserve their outrageous luck with the only player who never misses a game..missing a game.
Why are you risking Gusto being worthwhile? It's a real stretch to think he'll start both games.
Jackson feels a must have.
No Bruno. Looks like it’s a 1 pointer off the bench for me. FS! 
Yup, this is why being good in this game is about being consistent - the higher end is so luck-based.
Having said that, things will change a bit with the new FA cup fixtures and strategic play will count for more imho.
Two points! Woohoo!!No Bruno. Looks like it’s a 1 pointer off the bench for me. FS!
Ah well, season (both types) went ages ago.
Time for some fun… whats up with all the miserable fxckers in the match day thread? Oh boo hoo…
I'm one of them...
We better score tonight and not shit the bed because I've left Richards on the bench and my chaser has Mateta playing.
They seem to be forgetting it is still Palace and they're not exactly prime Real Madrid.
We don't tend to win in London, but it's not time to worry like we're playing City away with this lineup.
They’re actually looking half decent since the care home came and picked up Woy. I’m not bothered about their ability (not convinced by the Olise media/Caf love in yet)… I’m bothered about their pace against our CHs who make statues look nippy.
BUT … looking forward to seeing Mount (until he goes off injured in the tenth minute) and Amads sub appearance in the 87th minute. And Casemiro winner.
The City game mind is the cup final… that WILL be carnage
C for me. But mind, my OR is 400k
I was looking through the bench to see if Bruno was there and for a hot second, I thought I was looking at the Palace bench until I saw Amrabat. Genuinely don't know who half of these guys are
Aaahhhh, misread it.C?
I don't think he was saying, you me and Dirty was option C
D then B
Rival has Munoz 2nd on the bench and Van de Ven playing
Maybe I'll skip Neto to Onana. Every chance Neto out-scores him by not even playing

Neither do we, mate
Mateta is our best defender so far
Is it too much to ask for this prick not to score for a change?
Yeah option C is correct. The one with no United players in it.
I did think we might be shit but now Richards also has an assist
Ffs Mateta doing my head in
