Arsenal assets underperforming right now. What are your plans for this lots?  I watched the game today and Martineli is looking like a shadow of his former self. He used to be more deadly that this; Saka too but I don't know why.

Tottenham and Arsenal assets were supposed to give me some good points today and they defaulted.

I left my best asset on the bench, Areola but who would have willingly put Duvbraka on the bench and Areola to start with for a game week like this ? I even brought in Trippier for their damn fixture.

I'm very cool with the fact my team would be fine now going forward, with my players returning from suspension so I can start making other plans too.

This GW winner is probably . Still some bonus points to be calculated but I believe it should be yours. See man your casual free hit at least netted you 1 mBTC free bet, well played  Grin Captain on Darwin also required some real courage.

Congratulations @buwaytress — obviously not an easy feat at a time where most teams got very low returns. The average was around 20 points IIRC.

Yeah you managed to get too close to comfort to my top position. Thankfully AFCON and the other one start soon so I am expecting some problems for your team. Not enough transfers to get rid of Salah, Son, Hee Chan, Lamptey and Lascelles. Last minute penalty save for Raya helped as well.

Hee Chan saved me from the red arrow after my wrong captain decision + Halaand playing zero minutes, claimed a few spots forward, so it was a good GW. Now I have Onana and Hee Chan to think about.

Saliba hasn't been good since I got him. Arsenal has forgotten how to keep a clean sheet. When is the Asian cup starting?

I see that the topic title has been edited. I assume that we won't be able to continue down the road with [banned mixer] because of the rule changes to be made on the forum in the new year. At the same time I saw bc.game among the sponsors in the first post. Is this a new deal?

... For example Hwang Hee-chan's performance isn't good at all in the recent times. I want to get Gordon instead of him.

After I wrote this he managed to collect 14 points anyway despite leaving the first match in which he played in the 45th minute by getting injured. Fortunately I kept him in my squad. Smiley

To be fair that is on you. When I am first on the table it goes to my advantage if you all do the same decisions as myself Smiley So I just do the best decision possible and if you copy I keep my advantage and if you don't copy and miss it you fall even further behind.

And by the way, difference between them is 3 points, hardly something to stress about. Did not watch Liverpool but from the stats and what cryptofrka told me, Liverpool should have scored quite a few more. Probably some of those were Salah chances as well.

There were chances that Salah could make a score contribution however he was unlucky. I also think that Salah is the most logical captain for the matches on this week. I see that Trent Alexander-Arnold isn't in your squad. Do you think of transferring him on the upcoming weeks? Because as it is shown in the image below he is making one win really good amount of points on the recent weeks.
Probably not, his price point is just way too difficult to accommodate without multiple transfers and I feel like he would stop scoring as soon as I get him. If I had enough money to change Tsimikas to Arnold this week I would have done it. Now it is only a possibility if Haaland is confirmed out for Sheffield. If i was on wildcard I would take him no questions asked but when you start to add transfer costs and opportunity lost into equation then it is probably better to skip.

Shit, I made so many bad choices recently. I had both Sterling and Palmer out due to suspensions and I swear to God, I told myself I'm gonnna take Garnacho as soon as possible after seeing him play vs Liverpool.

This was a perfect opportunity to do it, but I calculated and sad to myself that Villa is a tough game - I'll do it afterwards, I need to replace Son and Salah anyway.
So I went with Gusto instead of Tsimikas, Garnacho scored a million of points, I need to remove Romero and Garnacho's price will now rise - and I will probably have to wildcard soon to be able to replace both Son and Salah.

I don't know how I'm still top 10 - considering that Haaland's not playing, I won't be after this GW.

What's the latest on Jota, and why are Gakpo and Nunez starting over him, Liverpool fans? He is the best differential pick available.

Klopp is managing his minutes because he just came back from an injury.

Something that you'd think Pep would be doing to Haaland, Doku and de Bruyne but with Pep you never really know. Annoys me that the games start at 22:30 in this time zone.

Watkins had no shots on target and only 5 touches in the 18-yard box. I sold Watkins, dropped from the top 10 to the bottom 10, got him back, and he murdered me on the rock.
Four blanks in five games since bringing Watkins back to my team. If you don't laugh, you will cry  Grin

same here, started with him on
as soon as I sold him, he started scoring, and scored almost all goals that he scored

and when I brought him back, he started again with blanks
can't overstate how lousy is he on my team, and you all should probably bring him in, because I will send him out for Haaland, now that Haaland is back

Watkins does this all season, so don't give up on him just yet. I have Halaand, Solanke, and Watkins up front, so I've got my front three covered for the time being.

Trofo thank you for ruining my GW, I knew Solanke was going to outscored Salah  Huh. Terrible captain decision

You lucky bastard, you keep fooling us for your own benefit, fuck me I fell for it, I should have gone with my first choice. At this moment, no point is less essential to me; every point lost moves me back a step or two.  Cheesy

Salah raised his hand for a pass more than he did for a shot on goal, and Elliot and Gakpo are selfish brats.

Watkins had no shots on target and only 5 touches in the 18-yard box. I sold Watkins, dropped from the top 10 to the bottom 10, got him back, and he murdered me on the rock.

Yesterday i tried to wildcard for the first time, and man... that was quite hard to do, i ended up not doing the movements, the problem was i want to make space for Haaland, but it was impossible to do without losing so much key players.

About Palmer, i think is one of the best players in the ratio money spend/points, and also i think he have a good future for the rest of the season. Sterling is good i have him, but is expensive, and more thinking about when Chelsea is not doing so good.

To have Halaand in your side, you must downgrade your backline; every team is terrible at keeping clean sheets, so having low-budget players at the back with a strong midfield and attack will still get you decent points.

Not having Halaand is going to bite you a lot this season, and you'll need to be a completely differential specialist to survive. The longer you wait, the more difficult it becomes.

Don't sell Palmer or Sterling just because they are suspended for one game, unless you don't plan on returning them anytime soon.

Sterling might actually benefit from Nkunku's finishing.

Meanwhile Palmer is more than just a pens merchant now.

I dare say, Gordon is a better captain choice than Wilson, this guy returns in every home game.

Solanke is probably going to fall for the "Player of the week" curse like most of the others.

Palmer is a must-keep, but Sterling's terrible mistakes have already cost us more league games; if Poch is anything like what I think of him, he will let Sterling rot on the bench for the rest of the season and sell him in January. He's not an average player, but his decision-making is atrocious; when Pep sold him, people called him a mad man; now they know why.

Palmer is going to stack up more assists from Nkunku finishing ability.

If Hhampuz ask you to send the sats to the Sheriff pocket for community service don't hesitate. Don't

There are also some people that like to use it in double GW since ceiling is much higher then. For instance if City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea get in semi final, you have to target other teams in the blank GW. Who are you gonna target in teams like Burnley or Sheffield? You are quite limited. But then all those 4 teams have double GW and you have plenty of great options.

this seems very reasonable
in empty GW, with few fixtures it is hard to expect to see a lot of people getting much points
but when top teams have two fixtures, and more than one of them, it is a good call

although, two chips can't be used together, so triple captain can't be used with FH, isn't that right? and that could be a drawdown in than theory

looking at fixtures, Salah seems as best choice for captain

Salah is in a terrific form right and it's likely going continue until he leaves for AFCON soon, but this game week, he's the major standout for captaincy choice, with Palmer and Sterting both suspended for a game, it gives multiple opportunity to bring in Nkunku without taking significant point hit. I'd rather go for Callum Wilson again than Solanke who plays against Fulham, while Wilson is up against Forest, so Salah for this week is an easy choice imo.

Classic FPL ending to GW with both Palmer and Sterling getting yellow cards to pile up the pressure for the upcoming GW. Should be some problems especially for those that have Tsimikas as well.

Yep, frustrating end to yesterday's game considering that I've got both of them in my team.
I'm left with 12 available players, and with Haaland and Romero doubtful, and most of my players having away games. Looks like a shitty week, I'm even considering to use a Free hit.

And to think they were both close to having an assist (Sterling) and a goal (from Palmer) points early in the first half if Sterling had a basic understanding of football.

Halaand is back in full training condition and will most likely start tomorrow. ( back to my team)

Trofo, I may require your unexpected help.- Salah or Solanke, who's band on?
