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.

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

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

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.

It is not only a question of who you brought in, it is also a question of who you removed. For instance I will probably bring in Palmer but don't know for who. Waiting on Bowen injury news, if he is out long time, easy decision. If he is back for their European game than it means Diaby is going out of my team.

Right, I forgot to say that I transferred out Neto and Bernd Leno out for those two. I was really looking forward to having Neto back this week but that never came out to be, I know he has Burnley in like 2 gameweeks but I feel that I am losing points across my whole midfield, so that's a problem if I want to close the gap. Also his fixtures get harder after that so there's no point just taking 5 points in 2 weeks (suppose), I need more than that urgently.

As for Leno, well, suffice it to say, I am quite disappointed by his recent performances, and he and Areola have very hard fixtures next so the potential clean sheet helps here.

I have Trippier, what if he gets injured today? Then he is out as priority and I have enough money to take Saka instead of Palmer.

For now I have some cover in also owning Tsimikas, Saliba, and Andersen. only Andersen has a bad fixture next week so he will be on my bench.

Don't make transfers just yet guys, we have european games and no telling who will get injured. Quite a few players I want to bring, gonna be -4 or maybe even -8 for me this week.

Too late, already bought Kelleher and Sterling on my 2 FT  Cheesy at least Sterling does not have europe to worry about, although I'm not worried about Kelleher at all since the statistical probability that he pulls a hammy right after Alisson is quite small.

I know I said Sterling was a trap before, but he seems to be doing a lot better now.

I still have enough to shore up my defense, and I can even do Jonny Evans => Porro if I downgrade Bowen. Although I do have cover in defense and midfield/attack in case someone gets injured and/or Bowen does not recover in time.

So many open combinations, will never understand why someone would lock in their options this early in the week.

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.



Though week as expected, Lascelles (probably spelled him wrong) coming from the bench helped a little.

Noted that, lucky you.
Just when we all thought it was safe having Bowen on and there he was, on the bench. I took a wrong gamble with him but, can’t say I had better on my sub. Might get 3points off the bench with two players off my team for the GW @Bowen @Gusto but, that still isn’t taking my team anywhere I wanna be.
I had high expectations on Solanke but, he underperformed.

Alvarez will Auto sub for Bowen in your team and give you a fat red arrow cause I'm moving back to your position in few hours from now.

Am I getting that right?
Maybe Mudryk is in the wrong team. Same feelings I had about J. Felix before he joined Barcelona and now we could all attest to his potent. Mudryk is doing so much but, he isn’t shining like he ought to.

Can’t say the same for Darwin. Like, his been trying to create something with Salah lately but, his so inconsistent and always missing the target. Just imagine him before the international break, he literally sent a ball flying in front of goal. What sort of a player is that. Yeah, before you say it happens, it tells a lot about his quality of play as a player. Haaland can’t miss that!

Players like Mudryk need experienced players around them to excel, which we currently lack at Chelsea.

If Liverpool wants to get the most out of Darwin, they must let go of Salah. The current Liverpool attack is centred around Salah rather than Darwin. I just have a feeling things will change if Darwin becomes the target guy and everything revolves around him.

Had Douglas Luiz as my Auto sub for Bowen, I'm currently with red arrow but could move up with Douglas Luiz 7 points.

Darwin and Mudyrk are so similar, so much potentials, but still so much to learn. I hope the best for them both in the future.

Darwin is already up there I can't say the same for Mudryk.

Watkins is a choice to consider, he is having the best season of his career, and very involved in Aston Villa games. His goal against Tottenham was spectacular and too quick for Guglielmo Vicario who is not easy to beat from a distance. Watkins would have even had two goals had one goal not been cancelled.

Another Aston villa player who even earned me better points than Watkins despite his goal is Douglas Luiz.

7 goals and 8 assists in 13 games is a great start, but I can't agree with you until he outscored his previous season record of double digits.
