Wait until Monday, I am sure Pep will find a way to surprise most of us. This season City line ups have been predictable due to injuries. Now that he has all the players at his disposal fun and disappointments will start for sure. I brought in Haaland for Alavarez and gave him captain. Fully expect Alvarez to outscore all other City assets this round Grin

Good on Pep if he benches KDB, as I stupidly benched Watkins because I believed that all my outfield 8 would get returns.

Apparently, I have not learned anything since SHU - ARS.

That being said, I was told on Reddit that it is unlikely that KDB stays benched.

My Captain Is KDB, I am confident in his ability, he scored me a solid 14pts from last GW, and so far I do not see any reason why Pep will not use him.

Has Hee Chan returned from the Asian Cup?

Not yet, he is still on International duty with Son for his country South Korea, they have qualified for the next round in that competition. Wolves must really miss him because he is one of those players who could have made a difference in Wolves's last game against Manchester United and their game today against Chelsea.

Chelsea will be on a quest to get back to winning after Liverpool sat and schooled them in the last game.

My FPL trip this season has been terrible, with too many poor captaincy decisions - I gave Gordon the captain, and Nigga made an assist before being substituted at halftime.

It is time for me to be finally rid of Matty Cash, because I'm unable to Cash-ing on him, freaking coach playing Konza ahead of him every freak time, If Cash had started, I'm sure he'd have been involved in at least one or more goals, I can't even get a clean sheet from him despite his not conceding, so it beats the purpose already, I might just settle for a very cheaper defender afford "Cash" flows elsewhere in my team, 'cos it's doesn't even seem like a right time go in on Porro.

It doesn't necessarily have to be the case. You can basically downgrade the defense and GK to threadbare and do something like:

Saka - Palmer - Salah - Hee Chan - KDB

Haaland - Alvarez

Most of the league's Top 10 managers have similar midfield options, so it won't help you if you're stuck at the bottom or middle of the league table. To leapfrog to the top, you need bigger differenctial; if you continue to play conservative at this time in the season, your points will be worth less. I let go of Saka and Salah for of something different than what everyone or the majority has.

In GW 25, Liverpool and Manchester City will play a double GW, and Halaand TC will hit like Tsunami

Had Tottaham on a super single ticket and the dusted club bottled two times lead. What on earth made them to buy Timo back to the EPL. Lol

Chelsea in general are super useless. Not keeping clean sheets and not scoring much with blank GW26 approaching fast. Only exception to that is Palmer, especially if you got him early on and have a lot of money invested in him.

Agreed. I took Sterling because they had a good run of games and now can't get rid of him because there's always something more important to tackle.
I think this is the round where he finally gets the boot - but I have to see what's wrong with Gordon before that - he was substituted at HT today.

Good decision to captain Watkins - hopefully it keeps me in the race. These extra 18 (hope he gets 3 bonus) points can be big.

Gordon left the stadium on crutches so it doesn't look good. Watkins got 3 bonus points so you are golden on that one.

Estupinan played for only 10 minutes which was a big disappointment for me. Since I added him to my squad I couldn't get any efficiency from him. If he didn't play today I was thinking that TAA who is a substitute would be able to collect good amount of points for me.

Gross' being about to get 11 points with +3 bonus points is one of the rare beautiful things for me so far this week.

GW22 winner is Smartvirus, this time it was a tie between him and Jayce but he clinched it on better overall ranking. It was a really close one.

Did I? I see him at 82 points after the GW22 and his very much the winner @Jayce, it was a close one surely, trying to scale through with Bowen on my team as against

Jayce had -4 from transfers, you are both on 78 points and you are winning it since first tie breaker is total points.

Now I need Sterling to do something, I'm running short on differentiators. A lot of people went with Richarlison and I'm still stuck with Gordon and Raheem.

Sterling is so useless, if there is one advice you take from me, you should sell him right now and get any one of Richarlison, Jota, Foden, Madders, Bowen or Kudus.

I held him for way too long when everyone else was dumping him.

I knew not having Richarlison would bite me in the ass - but I simply hate the guy too much. Him and Bruno Fernandes are 2 people I'll never have in any team I choose - I don't even use them in Fifa.

I hope my Watkins captain pick does the trick - he should be scoring a few in that game.

These days, I don't care whether I like a player or not, as long as he can garner points, I'm all in. I haven't had Richardlison so far on my team but he's definitely on my radar. I captained Watkins too. He hasn't been at his best lately — I do hope that he makes a splash today and supply as much points as possible because Sheffield should ne an easy one for Villa.

If I manage to win a GW this week, I'll consider my first FPL a success. Congratulations @Jayce for GW 22.

I really thought Jayce would let me have this one but, it was a good one none the less. Congrats on between.
One of my bad decision over the week was having to give preference to Palmer as against Richarlison. Even as it is, Richarlison has a goal. Am hoping Palmer would do the same when Chelsea face off Wolves.

It’s GW23 guys, we at it again!

But I can't do any of that right now because I blew my free hit, so now I need to micromanage for GW29 big blank.

GW29 is still long way off and we don't know exactly who is blanking so how are you managing for that? I am now managing for double 25 and blank 26. More than enough.

Fulham vs Spurs and Burnley vs Brentford is on so that helps a little.

I already have Toney, and plan to stockpile Spurs and maybe Brentford assets. I am hoping that Chelsea loses to Villa in the FA cup (sorry Igebotz) so that Saka and Palmer can also play. But it's very difficult to figure out a plan for the long term, and my current plan only goes up to GW25.

You can't stockpile Spurs yet since they blank in 26 and you already have Toney. I think you are as set as possible or GW29 at this moment. He is my scheduled transfer for next week.

Going triple Manchester city assets (KDB, Halaand and Alvarez) means having no Salah. Big call for me.

Not having Salah is no biggy in my opinion, he's supposedly picked up a minor injury from AFCON, and after such a shitty display at AFCON you don't expect him to be fully back to 100% in just a space days, It's certain he'd miss this game week, so there is still a lot of time to make other if either City assets isn't worth it.

I'll likely be leaving Salah on the waiver wire for now, at for two game weeks, possibly until after Liverpool's blank.

It doesn't necessarily have to be the case. You can basically downgrade the defense and GK to threadbare and do something like:

Saka - Palmer - Salah - Hee Chan - KDB

Haaland - Alvarez

Or if you bought Palmer early on when he was 4.9 like I did, you can even squeeze out some funds for Saka => Son.

But I can't do any of that right now because I blew my free hit, so now I need to micromanage for GW29 big blank.

update, and to compound my transfer woes:

DGW25 has been announced for Liverpool and Luton: https://x.com/officialfpl/status/1753722559944610053?s=46&t=k_FBGnsbG2P0PN0vqz37RA

However, I stand by my opinion that the big calls were good. No foul on Gallagher for sure, no foul in the buildup for Bradley's goal. Don't recall what else you mentioned.

He intentionally skip the tackle on Nkunku by VD and the Dive by Jota for that PK. Says a lot.

Quote from: nelson4lov on February 02, 2024, 02:28:43 PM

I agree 100% Grin

- but still, you shouldn't be expecting much from such a disgraceful performance from your team. It's more about Chelsea's performance being a norm (as a matter of fact) and less about bad officiating.

We were the best team in the first leg so it's fair for to assume we were going to give a tough game but that's didn't happen. Lol.

I assume that giving a place to all of KDB-Haaland-Salah-Son-TAA names in the squad will be very difficult. I'm wondering how Salah will return from his injury as well. But while Liverpool are doing this good leaving Salah out doesn't make sense to me for now.

I have Toney instead of Watkins in my squad. I don't think of changing this for now.
