Before yesterday's game I felt great with the week - but then all hell broke loose and basically all City and Chelsea players that people are having scored a lot of points.
Chelsea might be recovering a bit - I will start looking at their team as well.

This GW will be hard (City vs Liverpool, Tottenham vs Villa), but after that my team will have its first big overhaul. I'm losing way too many points due to fantasy inexperience.

That was a very terrible game for calculative FPL managers because how do you have Haaland as captain against Chelsea, Cole Palmer and Jackson, all in that fixture alone and they yield massive points for their owners, I really don't think I can complain much though, 57-12 points for the week isn't something I can complain much though because at least I can say my team is in better shape going forward so those 12 points are sort of a Juice that is worth the squeeze for me.

Damn. Another 50+ points for me, and if in the last round 51 points was enough to get a yellow cap, then in this round I was, as always, behind the average. I feel like I’m in Groundhog Day and I always get the same number of points even though I’m constantly managing my team Grin

I guess I need to wait for the wild card and change most of the lineup. This makes sense until even half the season has been played.

Holy shit! Shocked

Yesterday I thought my team would get torn apart and fall more places, but I got a pleasant ending in 88 points. It would've been even more if I had started Tsimikas too (I took a punt against my own club thinking that Liverpool would concede some against Brentford).

Was very close to getting max GW points too, but that honor is going to be going to som3aa. So congratulations.

Halaand and Salah's masterpiece saves the gameweek. After wrapping up Saturday with only 15 points from four players, I didn't think I'd get past 50 points.

Surprisingly, despite winning more than four freebets last season, I have failed to win a single GW this season.

Difficult fixtures after the international break for every team; Arsenal, Chelsea, Westham and Brighton too.

Haaland Haaland lalalalalala..... fuck yourself, another week waiting to see him not scoring (yes im waiting so much), what a game we just see, i put Sterling on bench thinking it was gonna be a travel for Manchester City, and ended up being much more complicated game than that, surprisingly Chelsea do much better against strongs teams than weakers one.

Sterling was out to prove a point today to Pep and the adoration of both fans that, he was good and surely he was even though he got a yellow card later in the game. He was just out on his best to ensure Manchester City don’t have the last laugh. I think the officiating was good too for this game but then, at some point I felt Palmer was too weak but, Pochettino chose to let him play full time. Maybe for that singular penalty possibility which he scored.

I knew what I was getting myself into; he's a good differential option who had his moment and was unlucky not to score before being substituted. Yes, it was a terrible mistake, but it had little effect on my GW; I was able to pull off 75 points, which is over average and a green fat arrow. The first error was trusting West Ham's defence over Manchester United's defence, and Onana has proven me wrong for the second time this season. Maybe it's time to put a little trust in the Manutd defence. The best decision this week was Maddison to Bowen.

We were the better team today; the only difference was that we didn't have our way with decisions, and Anthony Taylor was terrible as usual. The city continues to get away with these decisions. They have the entire FA in their hands.

You mentioned Doku somewhere in this thread, still went ahead and got him, sacrificing Sterling for him, and that's the second worst decision I've made this season; my initial intent was to get Palmer for Sterling, but the transfer happened too quickly. I would not have signed Doku if I had known Grealish was back in the squad. Getting him off after international break.

Doku for Sterling,,, because of one incredible GW performance… that was a rash option as, Manchester City game isn’t built around Doku although, he’s a very talented play maker that could come up with assists, have good eye sight for goals but, his just an option in Peps squad until it solidifies.
Chelsea at this time have most of its play centered around Sterling, N. Jackson and Palmer. They are dependable and you could expect them to come up with good points should Chelsea have a good day but, you can’t say the same for Doku.
Like I said before hand, Doku is good but good enough for the FPL, I can’t say for sure!

@igebotz Sterling looked good today. Is it usual state of things or just today? Thinking to take him after their fixtures turn better. What happens with Palmer minutes after Nkunku gets back? What happens with his penalties? Nkunku was the one before the injury but Palmer scored 4 already, that must count for something, and three of those were against Arsenal, Spurs and City if I am not mistaken Fans will remember those things.

Sterling is always in front of goals; he's been good all season and in every game he's played this season; he's simply one of those unlucky players who puts in so much and gets so little in return. Palmer is an important member of the squad, and when Nkunku returns, he will be moved to the No.10 position behind the striker, where he will spend the majority of his time. Nkunku would have to prove himself to have the PK duty because Palmer has a perfect record.

I'm coming to burn your ass. Just wait.

Newcastle did not even had enough senior players to field first 11 and keep everyone playing on their position. This was sort of expected and I am pissed for not making a bet on Bournemouth after seeing the line ups.

Newcastle missed following players today (copied from livescore so probably correct):

How did they lose 11 of their senior players in less than a week? I only knew about Burn and Schar, but I had no idea others were missing. Trippier had to explain to the home crowd after the game that they had several injuries. They are fortunate that we are approaching the international break.

Was I here talking with somebody about Doku or in SB chat, don't remember but I thought he was getting 1 pointer today and was very close with the prediction. In the end yellow card and and sub before min 60 got him 0 points. Perfect example of why it isn't worth chasing past points.

My team really looks like shit for this GW.

Maddison, Estupinan and Stones injured, Saka doubtful for the game. Tsimikas doubtful to start.
It's possible I'll play with 9 players, from which one will be Semenyo.

I have some construction going on in my apartment and no option to sit down in peace and use a wildcard. Should have done it ages ago though.

Tsimikas did good today and netted you some sweet points even though he was subbed off later on. I was in a similar position yesterday after ending the day with a paltry sum of 6 points. But it's bumped up nicely thanks to Salah and Haaland.

For this gameweek, it doesn't matter who you captain between Salah and Haaland, you end up with same points (bonus points excluded)

This GW winner is Abiiiii12, congrats on monster 95 points which got you second place in the league as well. Tsimikas and JWP coming up for you big time today. Not seeing you here often which is a shame, love a good banter and first 4 players behind me are not very vocal here. If igebotz was that high he would drop threats every week to pile the pressure on me Grin

Newcastle missed following players today (copied from livescore so probably correct):
Harvey Barnes
Dan Burn
Matt Targett
Callum Wilson
Alexander Isak
Elliot Anderson
Jacob Murphy
Sven Botman
Sandro Tonali
Bruno Guimaraes

Just check their bench on site like livescore. Apart from Livramento and Dubravka, all kids. CL and fatigue taking their toll. Lewis Miley in first 11 also a kid. Trippier losing nerves at the and arguing those points with supporters.

Now I see why they lost.
I don’t get a chance to see the game but, looked it up on the FPL results and it was very shocking to note that they lost by 2 goals to nothing.
Isak had been king gone and with Wilson as an addition, they’re sure to have difficult times facing Bournemouth and have any chance of success.

The UCL like you said could possibly be the issue with them as, they’ve got to present there very best and with no team depth to cover for any strain in the squad, what you see in the line ups could be there best possible option.

Trippier having to come up with just a single point, that’s just bad for my squad right now.
Maddison didn’t get to feature on my squad and I’m hoping FPL does the next best thing with a sub of my highest point but, I can only see them bringing in Kabore being my first sub and with a single point as well, FPL though!

At least Saka played - but looks like a terrible round in the making for me.

No Ben White and No Martin Ødegaard in the game, I did not expect much from Havertz who has barely been able to fill into the shoes of Martin Ødegaard and do for Arsenal what Martin Ødegaard does for us.

Tottenham lost, Pedro scored the only goal, and a potential 13 point week was squandered in 90+ minutes; Son has another blank week;

No James Maddison to thread in neat passes for Son to Chase.

I liked your squad quite much. However Gabriel made me lose many points this season. Whenever I thought about transferring him Arteta kept him on the bench. Because of this I don't think about transferring him again this season. By the way what are your opinions about Hwang Hee-chan? In my opinion he is a player with scoring potential.

I am quite sure Gabriel plays vast majority of matches, if he misses one here or there no biggie, I have a bench to cover him.

Hwang is ok, but he is much better when Neto is fit and then I would rather take Neto

Don't know what it is about this Wolves squad, don't really rate them as bad or good, just avoiding them so far this season.

Seems like another bad GW in making. No returns so far for me but most of my players are on stage tomorrow so still time to change that.

It seems to have been a defense game for Arsenal today, with Saliba and Zinchenko on the score sheet. Saka don’t seem yo be so phenomenal no more to produce great quality and needed goals. His unfitness and how the game seems to revolve around him makes it really difficult to get points.

It's just a matter of time before he gets out of a lot of teams, multiple options are becoming available yet again, choices like Eberechi Eze and Micheal Oliseh are back for Crystal Palace, and they were quite a dependable options when fully fit.

White with a knock today, I did not even know about that one.
So, my defence is White, Estupinan, Stones (all injured), Tsimikas (probably won't start) and Coufal. Brilliant.

At least Saka played - but looks like a terrible round in the making for me.

I can't remember what a really good game week looks like again to be very honest, it's been a very long while for me, Lol!

I hope it doesn't end up like the last time, where he had to miss more matches due to that, he's already made the line up though, I presume it was just a minor issue and FPL injuries notification (the yellow one) is just misleading as it often is the case.

I really hope Rasmus Hojlund can replicate the form he display in the UCL during the midweek.

If that be Saka being referred, we are sure to have him in regular play but, Maddison is out for the rest of the year.

Tottenham’s lose today just shows how much work he was doing for the team, they couldn’t hold on to an offensive game and were often subjected to pressure by the Wolves team, conceding 2 late goals to deprive me of good 6points on Son and Pedro Porro zero clean sheet, Spurs did this one.

I think the issue with Saka isn’t one that would leave him on the bench, he will very much be featured on the pitch although, Maddison seems to be the bane of most of us. Didn’t keep track on him until it was late past the limited time for transfer. I’m just hoping one of my benched players like Kabore or Edouard gets good points to substitute for Maddison.

I rally should have brought Mbeuno in, would be looking forward to that possibility in GM13 and the chances of getting Haaland back on my squad. Last GW11 was so out of expectation.

EDIT:
It just wasn't meant to be for Hojlund, was it ? I mean he had quite an amount of decent chances, and he took some of them really the best way any striker possibly could but Kaminsky was just never going to let it slide.
