Jackson is only one yellow card away from suspension. GET Alvarez for your piece of mind; he's in the best shape of his life right now, and with KDB and Kovasic out, he'll always play behind Halaand; he's the team's best creator right now. I might also get him.
This is very reasonable, Alvarez has been very consistent for Manchester City but he has only scored two goals in the premier league and Erling Haaland with seven goals making him the top scorer presently.

Halaand has 45 points and Alvarez has 37 points at a price of £6.9m. If he continues to play this much, he will be the closest thing to Halaand at the end of the season for a very low cost. He's in the best shape of his life, and Pep and the rest of the club are enjoying it as well. I just added him to my team. Let's enjoy the ride while it's still going.

That was my biggest mistake last season, I could say that literally cost not ending up on one of the winners list because, I was so hell bent on having Mo Salah for majority the beginning of the season, especially when Liverpool were having supposedly easier fixture, but Salah just was inconsistent, even though he provided a lot of points and one of the most in his position, my decision of captaining him, while having TAA cost me the ability to have a more valuable midfield options due budget.
The experience that many players have here playing is giving them an edge. I like to see when people recognize mistakes that cost them and from the experience avoid such from happening again. There was no last season for me, this is my first season and everything I am learning is from this season. I may not do as I expect this season, but I am pushing to see how well I can do in my first season.

GW5 was a disaster for many of us so that makes our free bet winner - ralle14 - even more impressive Smiley

To get 75 pints in a week like this is very respectable. Gross, Douglas Luis and Vincius are all very low ownership and players I wouldn't have in my tem personally but I had just over 40 points while ralle14 smashed it. Congrats man.
Thanks, and I guess holding my transfer plans and luck paid off big time.

After a disaster GW3, I wanted to make some changes, but I decided to let it play out for now then this happened. Last month I was sitting at the near bottom of the group and now i'm suddenly within the top 10.  Shocked

I'm okay waiting for the free bet next week and there are always matches to bet on anyway.  Smiley

General free bet disclaimer:
Free bets will always be paid on Monday and they have to be announced on Sunday to catch that deadline. So that means if GW ends on Sunday I will make sure you will get it the next day. If GW ends on Monday like this time, you have to wait whole week to get it. No way around it.

Haaland is scoring less goals than the expected despite finding quite many chances in the recent matches. He had chances to make a hat-trick in the West Ham and Crvena zvezda matches. Therefore I find it quite risky to make another player captain instead of him. Because I think Haaland will surge in in a short time.

Not picking Haaland as my captain has bitten me in the butt twice this season, I think that could be a big differential if done right and with lots of luck. On the other hand if you do it at the wrong time you will be left behind, all the way to the back. Which leaves me quite undecided, do I go with the majority and find other differentials or take some risks here and there and get paid off big?

You are already doing very good in the pool and if I am reading your username correctly then you are in 5th place.

It's more luck than skill to be honest. It's hard enough to pick 8 midfielders+forwards that will score on a given gameweek, let alone select one of those for double points. The whole reason Haaland's a popular captain pick is that his xG is at least 1 on any given GW. Only other player who comes close to this is Salah.
Yeah, but Salah days when he scores several goals in one game seem to be in the past. He plays more wide now and is more of a creative force for the team. When you captain a midfielder, you want goals since midfielders get more points for goals than forwards.

And the biggest problem of not giving the band to Haaland is that you need to be right almost every time. Usually when someone outscores Haaland it is by few points but when Haaland gets his day it is a shitload of points and you lose in one week what you were gaining in 5.

I'm playing the game of non loyalty this time around, I won't wait around too long for a player who wouldn't stay consistent, Haaland have been anywhere near his performance of last season, the but number of goals he could have scored, just shows it takes Haaland just one or two games, and he'd eclipse the entire captaincy points amassed by a captain selection of 2-3 weeks.

It is horrible that I was able to collect only 30 points for Gw5. Many of my players wasn't in the starting eleven this week and I lost so many points as I was able to get rid of Stones new who was in my substitutes. I would have still been the leader if I started the season with another player instead of Stones. And my budget would have been much more relieved. I will transfer another forward after getting rid of Jackson next week. I'm open for suggestions about this topic. Smiley

In case you didn't hear, Rico Henry tore his ACL and is out for the rest of the season. so if you still have him then get him out now. It is even worse than having Kevin de Bruyne.

Yep, went to replace him - but this game just ain't for me.
I wanted to take Hickey, their RB instead. But amazing as I am, I misclicked and took Collins instead.

Now I'll have to use another transfer to replace him in 1-2 rounds because he's fooking useless.

Yes, Nunez. Yes, I know. Horrible week, completely my fault. Can;t believe we had goals flowing out of every corner but I scored lower than the average. I stare at all of you above me with envy.

Still delaying on Salah as budget doesn't allow but have moved Marsch out for Mbeumo. So creative huh?

Don't ever become a manager! Why in the name of Jesus Christ is Nunez still in your team?  Grin

Early transfer: Henry to Schar!

ACL is the new Hamstring this season. Crazy

From where appear this guys with 75 points? Well, ended up with 62 points in second position. Still nice and without Haaland, if i had him form the start i can be fighting at the top, thank you Harry Kane going to Bayern at last moment.

With the Champions league starting this week and Arsenal being in the competition, there will be lots of rotation in the team and Goalkeeper in the premier league for Arsenal in games will not be constant. Maybe I need to send Ramsdale out of my team as well, he is also not exactly the best with clean sheets too right now.

Who has Declan Rice? what do you think about him and his performance recently for Arsenal? Personally I feel he is becoming more comfortable, and also needs to learn to take his chances so he can at least have more goals to his name that will further help improve his confidence.

Arteta already said he would actively rotate members of his team but it's going to change if Raya ends up performing better than Ramsdale in the long haul. Ramsdale is too error prone so he'll most likely be one with less minute.

For Declan Rice, he has quickly become an integral part of Arsenal's midfield. But it's worth noting that his performance is solid but isn't worth it if he won't be raking in points from assists and goals. It's usually 2-3 points per GW although he popped 10 points in the 3-1 win against Man Utd.
I don't know if I would like to have any goalkeeper now with exception from Pope. Problem is I am not spending that much on goalkeeper in defence which you can easily cover with Trippier, Schar and Botman. All three are better options for me.

Anyway, made my transfers early this time around to catch price rises. Mbuemo and Edouard are in, now waiting for injury news  Grin

If I could somehow squeeze out one of my 7.0 midfielders and throw Salah in without sacrificing the defense, that would be a huge squad upgrade. But I'm about 2.1m short of making that happen. Although I could throw out Chilwell and get Gusto to save 1.6m or so. I'm not sure if that's really worth it at this point though.
If we speak frankly, the start of the season looks pretty good for me. I made several decisions that paid off.

Salah (starting with 1 game week) stably brought me glasses in every game week, I also made it my captain in that game week when he scored more points than Haaland. And even this week, Salah saved the position of the entire team, so I slowly go up in the ranking.

Udogie, Saliba ... Both of successful peaks while everyone else chose Chilwell and Gabriel ... I am very pleased with this election, although I seriously think about replacing Saliba with Digne (given the series of matches of Aston Villa). At the moment, the ideal protection for me is as follows: Udogie, Digne, Trippier, Gusto and 1 more (Estupiñán or Saliba).

I am not so sure about Estupinan nowadays as he's going to be dogged from running around in the Europa League and Premier League. So his minutes might get more restricted.



Matt Turner losing his clean sheet already and getting sagged 0 - 1 by Burnley at home, looks like the beginning of the end for his nailed starting position.
