It is ridiculous to still be without Foden, he's my player of the season. He's the only City player that you can safely put in your team that won't destroy your budget - Haaland will, KDB will as well (and he's not even playing much).

Wanna ask me then how it is then that I don't have him in my team? Yup, no fucking clue.

After I got rid of Haaland and, quite by chance, took Foden into the team, firstly, things went better, and secondly, the excess money allowed me to be more flexible in choosing players. In fact, Haaland ultimately doesn't justify its high price tag. I think that if at the end of the season we make a calculation based on the indicator “points received/money spent” for each player, then Haaland will be far from the top, not in the top 10 for sure.
As well as KDB.

I honestly expect LFC to hunt goal difference today - Sheffield is already relegated. It will be funny when they score 5 goals and Salah and Nunez get none.

This is an underrated opinion to be honest  Grin

I mean Liverpool does look like the standout team to get the most goals for the game week, but how many times have we witnessed Mo Salah and/or Darwin Nunez fire blank, even when Liverpool score around 4-5 goals, that's really not an unprecedented event, is it ? Though, Salah is lately having more involvement in Liverpool's goals, Nunez is still more of a coinflip even if Liverpool are playing a side from the Conference league, and he gets plethora of chances.

But who would get the other goals though if Salah and Darwin have no goal involvements?

Maybe Macca, possibly Diaz or even Elliott too but then that's about all I can think of.

Aston villa held 4 for Mancity and Alvarez didn't contribute shit and he was there all game. It has happened to Salah before ( can't remember the game ) and it could happen again.

Liverpool 3-1 Sheffield United ( Luiz X2, Elliott 1)  Grin
Don't be like that guys, I need about 50 points from my 3 LFC players to be happy with this gw. I think clean sheet, one goal for Van Dijk, 2 for Salah and 2 for Nunez could be enough. Hopefully some of them get assists as well.

If Nunez scores 7 goals today and Salah assists 5 of those, I'm good. Otherwise it will be another crappy round.

I'm paying for my shitty wildcard decision before GW25 - my team is filled with injured players and there's nothing I can do.
Still, Liverpool's got an easy game today and Nunez isn't on a lot of teams so he can be my differentiator today.

Woah there, I also have Foden Smiley

I see this becoming a two-horse race very quickly. But as always, tactics > chips, so I'm not too concerned about whatever chips Igebotz has left at this point.

Wow that was a crazy ride - Double Arsenal defence and Halaand's absence all worked in your favour this time, but Wood and Darwin aren't going to win you shit, and Arsenal's double defence won't work against Brighton and Aston Villa.  Grin

Now Salah is only thing separating us now....

I was never expecting Foden to make a hat-trick today. I can see that only spack17 has Foden at top. The sadder thing for me is that my opponent in the second chance league igebotz has Foden. Even though we are just at the beginning of the league he has gained a big advantage. Sad

Will Pep ever rest Rodri?

Well you saw how badly they played while Rodri was suspended, so no.

You were bang on for Saka. I never thought I would see the day he is dropped from the Arsenal squad, usually he plays if he can stand on his feet. Means either he is seriously injured or Arteta finally figured out that he needs to give the guy a break here and there.
We have players who are fit, it is bad managerial decision to keep stressing our key players especially with how important it is not to loose any game until the end of the season. A serious injury to any key player entirely ruins the plan for the season.

Saka is not completely injured, but he is not fully fit either. I suspect that against Brighton, he will not play full time, but will have some game time.

Saliba and Gabriel deserve some rest too. I am waiting for Timber to be fully fit.

It was a quite bad gw for me generally.

Too easy for the Sherrif - I have the entire rounds strategy posted at my workspace, and so far it's been working perfectly; I just hope there are no injuries along the road. I still have two Liverpool assets and two Chelsea assets left to play. Potential 80 points incoming....

Now I can wait peacefully for Salah's haul/blank tomorrow. Foden has now compensated for Son and Halaand with the 20 Pointer.

@nelson4lov - welcome back brother - Give me the competition
@Trofo nelson4lov points is added to the table now... We good.

@nelson4luv it's good to have you back brother - I'm your biggest fan  Grin

Back with a bang  Grin. I haven't followed the last two GWs so my performance has been below par. Maybe I can make up for it for the remaining 8 Gameweeks of the season. I'm still confident in our bottlers league. I'm about to pull a home run by season end.

It is ridiculous to still be without Foden, he's my player of the season. He's the only City player that you can safely put in your team that won't destroy your budget - Haaland will, KDB will as well (and he's not even playing much).

I had Foden, Alvarez and KDB in my team. I don't know what happened in the last couple of weeks because the only city player I have right now is Alvarez and compared to Foden, he couldn't get on the scoresheet. Foden is easily one of the best midfielders in the FPL this season. A fruit that has kept on giving.

I expect a shitload of points from Salah, Darwin and Saka -
From Salah, yes!
from Darwin Nunez, still a 50/50 chance, he has a reputation for missing goals.
then for Saka, he did not look very fit against City, Not sure he will have enough game time or even play at all against Luton. We have more difficult games upcoming.

LFC will want to reduce Arsenal's GD advantage by a bit and tomorrow is the perfect game to do so.
Arsenal have a chance to make it difficult for LFC to catch up on GD when they play Luton today, before LFC meet Sheffield tomorrow. Sheffield are the last on the table, but can be an upset for LFC.

Even Arsenal conserves some attacking options looks like way too much for Luton.

The round has started quite slowly, but all heavy hitters for this round are yet to play.

It is going ok for me so far without any City assets but there will be that 1 round where they will bring 40 points to everyone but me. Shouldn't be against Villa though.

Good point. Just today I read about scenarios when a golden match would be possible in the Premier League and the main requirement is that Arsenal be in third place because now their statistics are better than those of Liverpool and City. Now all three teams will try to improve it as much as possible in case of an equal finish on points. I prepared for this and, taking a wild card, chose three players each from Liverpool and Arsenal (City has a difficult game).

You're overconfident and couldn't give up 1mBTC for 4mBTC. I'm giving CLS63 the biggest challenge of his life down that pit hole. I'm struggling to fit Salah into my team; he's a possible TC this game week, but it may also be a trap.

Frankly you are still the biggest favourite of this league because of still having TC. Stil if I do my best I think that I have a chance to win 4 mbtc. This week hasn't started well for me. I couldn't get a good return from the players in my squad until now. I hope my Salah captain choice would make me get one step forward.

TC could also go wrong - At this point in the season, nothing is certain. Son is the greatest captain fraud of all time, deliver for two GWs and dipping for 20. I knew not having Salah would harm me, so I activated my bench boast to cover any potential Salah haul, but I'm still hoping he blanks to keep me ahead.

@Trofo Thanks..
