I'm indecisive about transferring Palmer in Bruno Fernandes' place tomorrow who is in my squad. Chelsea are going to play against Brighton home tomorrow. When it comes to Manchester United they are going to play against Newcastle away. 5.3 million euros is a very good opportunity to transfer Palmer.

Right then, oranges and reds all over my team, cost me any good chance last GW but I shipped out a suspended (James) rather than injured, think I'm happy to take risks benching those or counting on them playing.

After James' suspension I want to add him to my squad. I'm aware that this is a big risk. However I want to relieve my budget by signing a this effective defensive player in offense for only 5.4 million euros.

Does anyone know what is the deal with Watkins?

I feel as though he is going to start and it's nothing serious, but perhaps it's just illness or a knock?

Konsa now sits in defence, my cheapest player but I just need a solid guy there as I see out the rest of this season on crutches heh heh

When we think about Onana's performance in both Galatasaray matches in the Champions League as well I still can't believe that he collected 18 points. When we think that the Turkish national goalkeeper Altay who was transferred this season hasn't played in even 1 official match yet too maybe Manchester United might need to think of transferring a goalkeeper in January.

Onana made a lot of mistakes in other games, but the second goalkeeper did not get a single chance to prove himself. I think the point is not that he is bad, but that Ten Hag will never admit that he made a mistake with Onana’s transfer.
Ten Hag's focus on himself infuriates me, he literally puts himself above the club, but for some reason in his case they allow him to do this (for now).

I managed to collect 58 points this week with Hwang Hee-chan's scoring a goal tonight. Even though 58 points isn't very high I assume that I still managed to become the person who collected the most points in our league this week.Still I think that I'm quite unlucky this week. I chose Son as the captain but all of his 3 goals in the Aston Villa match were disallowed due to offside. It was painful for me to watch.

By the way I would like to correct a mistake here.  Grin  I thought that I was the one who collected the most points for the week. However I have realized that boltz was more successful than me about this topic. I would like to congratulate him for being the winner of this week.  Smiley
I will double check that tonight and proclaim the winner officially. No hurry since we have to wait until Monday for free bet to be paid anyway.
Forgot about this didn't I? No matter it will be paid on next Monday either way. So to make it official GW13 winner is boltz with 66 points. Congratulations, Onana and Joao Pedro were instrumental for this result. Had no idea Onana managed to collect 18 points in that game.

From what I've gathered so far, goalkeepers are mostly irrelevant.
It seems like a bad choice to go for expensive ones, just look at Areola - he's a part of a horrible WH defence and is still just 13 points behind Alisson who's in top spot, for 1.3 mil less.

I might even ditch Raya - 4.8 for a GK is also kinda expensive. I'd rather take Areola and use that 0.5 mil for a better midfielder/backup striker.

I finally got rid of Botman with my free transfer for this gw. Net negative effect and returns for Botman on my team. Got Trippier once again — hopefully he gets to cook as we approach midway to the season.
I did the same, I wanted to keep him but there were too many players sitting out on my squad and I think i'm missing out on some points if I don't make a change anytime soon.

I replaced him with Zinchenko as I still have a bit of extra left we'll see if it's worth the investment.

Very bad to have teams on Europa League or Conference, because they play in thursday and with that it can be surely a one day less to recover in some cases. And also because you dont know in teams like Liverpool if they are gonna put starters or subs in the games until they play.

At this point, Areola and Westham's defence cannot be trusted.
You are changing your opinion way to fast for this game. Just a week ago you were talking about bringing in Zouma Smiley

Raya is the first keeper for Arsenal and to my knowledge he played all the games after he took that position except for the last one, against Brentford, where he couldn't play because of the clause in his loan contract.

"At this point" means new opinion bro  Grin

I was wrong about Westham's defence, and you were right all along. That lost me my rank, and I'm learning the hard way not to trust too much

So it's safer to do Areola to Raya?

Raya is my first choice keeper since I got him some weeks ago. I replaced him with Areola due to the reasons you mentioned for the last gw and while Areola can make saves, West ham's overall defence is too porous. He'll be on the sidelines for the foreseeable future. Since taking top spot from Ramsdale, Arsenal have conceded fewer goals across the board.

To think Onana was hyped to be the #1 keeper this season  Tongue

Only problem is that he takes LFC spot.

That's my major concern, After that, all he'd be able get from Liverpool is to likely go for Salah alone. Meanwhile to get another, it will cost two transfers, one to get a Liverpool keeper out for another club's, while the other to bring in another Liverpool outfield player.

Best case scenario would be to forfeit Allison in total for now, and get Kelleher as his first choice then another alternative goalkeeper he'd rather have from any other club.

What is the present state of things at Arsenal? Arteta appears to be rotating abit between Raya and Aaron Ramsdale, making it tough for me to have either. I was hoping to have a double Arsenal defence for the upcoming games. At this point, Areola and Westham's defence cannot be trusted.

Onana is the Keeper with the most clean sheets, and I've rested him on each of those clean sheet days.

Kelleher will surely play though - whereas Gomez can start instead of Tsimikas. I still have a wildcard active, what to do? Grin

How Guaranteed is his spot once Allison returns ? That's one Transfer you sure going to spend along the line If you go with, secondly, how many clean sheet do expect him to keep and I regarding to Liverpool's defensive ability at large, when he even keeps any clean sheet you know it would be more of just 6 points without bonus points and aside the fee, I really don't see the advantage of having him for the time being, I'd rather stick with Tsimikas who could have attacking returns, and when he doesn't play there is possibility of some on your bench that could filling with positive return. If you're just bringing Kelleher for the time being and able to use wildcard later then it could be a worthy option, I just tend to think their better options to get from Liverpool than their GK.
Why complicate things that much? He can just take Kelleher as second keeper, there is nobody cheaper than him anyway and then play him while Alisson is out amd games are good.

Only problem is that he takes LFC spot. I am looking at him as well. Could be nice option in next few weeks.

Anybody going for Kelleher? Some easy points there for a value of 4 mil, Alisson is out for the next few games.
The problem I'm having is that I have 3 Liverpool's players already. Tsimikas is the only one I can risk at this point, but he's a good pick as long as Robertson's out.

I totally forgot to check this week my fantasy team, but ended up being a very good one week for me, cutting a little bit the gap with some of the guys uppon me. It was a very smart move to put Sterling in the eleven starter and cut down one forward like Darwin Nuñez who played against City with low chance of score.

But i need some big points to catch the front wagon.

On the contrary, I made some small changes (I don’t see the point in paying points for additional transfers) and seemed to be happy with the team, but in this round I scored less than my usual result of 50 points.
I don’t know what can pull me out of the bottom half of the table, although theoretically speaking, even gap even between first and last place is not so great that it no longer has a chance.

I finally wildcarded, I like how my team looks now. Not sure that getting rid of Watkins was a good choice, but it had to be done to accommodate Haaland.

City's going into a nice run of games, it's getting too dangerous not to have him at this point of the season. I took Darwin as well - I have a feeling he's gonna frustrate me a lot in the next few weeks.
Still - an easy LFC fixture list makes it a no-brainer.

Who to captain is the difficult choice now. Having Haaland and not captaining him is crazy, but Salah's a better choice for this GW for sure.

Since getting Salah in my team, it has been an easy decision for me to just give him the captain band. Haaland is a good choice for a captain but Salah returns are usually on par with him as Salah gets assists pretty much every week even though he doesn't get to find the net. Best choice would be to decide between the two of them for each gw based on the fixture they have.



I finally got rid of Botman with my free transfer for this gw. Net negative effect and returns for Botman on my team. Got Trippier once again — hopefully he gets to cook as we approach midway to the season.
