So, Joao Pedro is fit enough to start the game today, that means no auto-sub for those counting on it for Wood and myself who would have been expecting those 6 points scored by Rogers… I guess at the same time there should be nothing stopping Joao Pedro from providing a similar, if not more returns right ?
Well 4 player in top 10 of our fantasy league captained Palmer and the rest i think Salah. I had Mbeumo as well and i cannot believe in both of their two goals he didnt contribute anything. Everyone else in my team besides Palmer were really bad. Could have gotten a lot more points now hoping Murphy and Isak do something
Good on them, and all the top four actually still got Joao Pedro at least in play, so they will strengthen their positions. I gambled on Cunha but Wolves were a tad bit unlucky last night.
@NotATether: Same here! Isak and Salah actually really whispered to me, and this was over a week ago! Have to take my hat off to el che... captaining Isak was actually on the brink of my mind, but I'm right now, until the winds change, am firmly a Salah captainer no matter what. What is your graph about, I don't understand it =p Expected points?
The nice thing about having a strong bench is that you can do thing like this for next week:
You can also roll all your transfers, get a good bench boost score, and in my case even put some money aside for the Assistant Manager.
Can you believe I was debating between Isak and Salah captain? Although Palmer will never be captain material this season.
Gentlemen, I present to you the race for 10th place, where 12 points separate 15th and 11th:

I said it the last time that Semenyo could be a good grab, I guess it's time to cash in temporarily on my Mbeumo investment, and good for other alternative to make way for extra funds for the assistant manager, I think it might be time for a Joao Pedro/Nicolas Jackson alternative as well.
Undoubtedly an important edition to Bournemouth team and he made that count yesterday with an assist and a goal. I wasn’t having it mehn, didn’t want to see that but I did. Still, I don’t see him to be doing more than Mbeumo. I don’t no what to weigh of him @Mbeumo in there weekend fixture against Liverpool but, he’s still a good asset to keep.
I thought this week was going to be Jackson’s week and was questioning myself on how I kicked him out early without getting nothing off his investment but to my amazement, he didn’t do more than 4 points. For Joao P, he’s still got things together.
You keep on making bad decisions,i still dont know you could replace Isak against Wolves that is really bad,probobly one of those decisions that will cost you badly around 15 points. But still your defence and some midfield players pushed you up and still you had a solid round in the end. But still the Isak transfer costed you big points
I did that transfer 4 rounds ago - Isak had Villa, United and Spurs coming. Still outscored Haaland who had Everton, Leicester, WHU and Brentford by more than 10 points.
Haaland plays against Ipswich and then he's gone. Wood costs less than half and is equal on points, Cunha as well. If we use the price per point formula, Haaland is probably in the bottom half of the table.
The decision to go with Haaland instead of Isak will be my doom.
To be honest, I'm mostly trying to play against icopress at this point in time already due to our sidebet.
I was afraid that him captaining Haaland in these 5 games (Everton, Leicester, WHU, Brentford and Ipswich) could be the difference between us, so I reshuffled.
Proved to be a terrible choice, but at least this time defence came to the rescue and brought me unexpected points.
If I hadn't fucked it up with captains again, could have been a decent round. Considering how it started, I'll take this result with a smile on my face.

Heung-Min Son lucky lad with that big deflection of a goal, because looking at some of the past games, I didn't not see Tottenham assets performing today and then Arsenal keeping chocking when the get into the final third and am now worried that these guys won't get a goal back and perhaps win the game...but long way to go let's see how the second half goes as the 1st concludes.
All my defenders flopped; I was about to celebrate Gabriel's goal at least, but it was awarded as an own goal. I can't say I expected a clean sheet in this game. But we ended up winning the game, but I was not still impressed with our finishing because we created enough chances to win that game with more than two goals. We should be scoring more goals as a team that wants to win the title.
Arteta should plan to fix this mess we have in attack; we cannot continue like this.

Oh boy, I saw you have Wood on the bench and with almost zero chance of being subbed on even of Isak does miss the game tomorrow. It’s still just the points for a goal, but this round is starting off like the round where having such points on the bench would count for a lot.
Heh yeah. I was trying to squeeze in a defender hoping for either City or Villa to keep a clean sheet. So much for that. I was also hoping for a Liverpool win to nil... shame about Wood. Saved by Semenyo. Again. So who here correctly captained Palmer besides Joca97? I got burned by him before, never again. Mbeumo should have had at least 2 assists, so annoying for the finiishing!
Also, questioning my Cunha/Isak duo formation. May the gods bless me tonight.

Dont having the key Brentford players is costing me a lot.
Brentford play Liverpool next; do you think it is a great time to bring one Brentford asset in? Liverpool will be much harder for Brentford to play because the slot machines will not want to lose and drop the points they have as an advantage over other teams.About to find out with the Aston Villa game against fresh Everton if it was a good decision, I took selling out Enzo for Rogers again. The first side where Enzo did not perform looks good. I hope Rogers scores and has a great game so I can be truly happy with the decision.

Well im in the same leaky boat as many, i went with Haaland as captain and was a bad take. Thanfully Salah also was not good, and Palmer only socre one goal, which harms me but not so bad, i cant take that hit.

Salah Captaincy did not mean much this round.
Palmer captains are the real winners this GW, but not by much. Surprisingly very few people seem to have captained Isak in this pool, so people who own him or Gordon or Hall could still gain an edge over their Palmer (C) counterparts if they fire on all cylinder.
I knew he was gonna be bad and thats why i removed Salah but expected more from Palmer just one goal,but as far as i seen a lot of people putted Palmer as captain so not much points gained. Also didnt expect some players to put Isak on captain,i have him in my team but not on captain still expecting at least one goal from him. Made some changes that didnt payoff was expecting more points but just got 36 points with 3 players left. As far as i see a bad round for almost everyone

So much for dependency on Salah to give you those points. Should have known better with Nottingham Forest playing from a home side when they rivalry Liverpool. Sels and Aina didn’t make anything easy for them. Salah was basically looking for the far corner all game and Sels was just a dive and a punch away. One last chance where I felt he would have gotten his goal, Aina was in the way with a block to the thighs.
The good thing about this captaincy so far is that, it cuts across all except for Palmer but yeah, no much difference, doesn’t make it less of a plus still.

I also traded Salah for Haaland and this guy just cannot score anymore. At least got Palmer as captain he scored early was expecting at least one more goal from him.
Brentford was a litmus to confirm if Manchester City were back fully to winning ways; Manchester City failed and still remain an unreliable choice for me to make. They still cannot be trusted to win all the games from now on to the end of the season. Oh boy, I saw you have Wood on the bench and with almost zero chance of being subbed on even of Isak does miss the game tomorrow.
I have Wood on the bench too. I started with Isak and Pedro; hopefully one person misses the game and Wood gets the spot. Salah Captaincy did not mean much this round.
Haaland with another magnificent captain performance.. And I had Palmer (who gets an additional +3 bonus) until yesterday.
Sold Semenyo (10 points + 2 bonus), there were 2 replacement options in the budget. Iwobi (2 goals + 3 bonus points) or Sarr. Of course I chose Sarr.
Whenever it's 50-50, there's a 100% chance I'll choose incorrectly.

You should tell us in advance when you are gonna change players so that we pick them haha,just joking. You really dont have luck in last couple of rounds.

Please tell us about your plans a few hours before kick-off next time
