Trippier costs a lot. He is worth it, yeah, but I feel like Porro is a better choice at the moment.
I went with Coufal though, saves some money and is a starter in a team that has only 1 game plan - send the ball wide and cross it into the box.
When it comes to Arsenal's defenders, I have White from the start and he's been great for me so far.

Hello fellas, it's your resident "don't worry about this guy in FPL" guy.
nelson some weeks back was insistent that Darwin gets more starting time and despite more wincing in his last game (missing sitter and inadvertent assist) at least he's still the most lethal contributor vs game time. I say this more with faith than with certainty, of course.
I'm also doing my final Brighton purge. Estupinan red-carded anyway helps me, but of course I still hope they get a result from City. Any advice for a defender? From Chelski maybe who's not James? Or is Arsenal bad timing?
Why Brighton purging? Yeah this it is terrible fixture for them but they will soon get much better fixtures. I am looking at buying Mitoma soon and maybe getting back Estupinan if he shakes of his health troubles. Maybe even taking a punt on Lamptey if he does not.nelson some weeks back was insistent that Darwin gets more starting time and despite more wincing in his last game (missing sitter and inadvertent assist) at least he's still the most lethal contributor vs game time.

Arsenal defender is actually great choice, I don't have any but I plan to get at least one soon. Problem is which one, if Gabriel is nailed he is the best one for sure but now that Partey is back we could again see some shenanigans from Arteta.
Like Igebotz said Porro and Trippier are great choices but their fixtures aren't so good any more. Matty cash is great but he has already risen 0.7M which is a lot. I would argue that time to buy all 3 of them were a month ago. Can't really say a bad word about them other than that since I have all 3

For the time being, avoid Chelsea defence at all costs; our current streak of games is not favourable. I would also suggest avoiding Arsenal defence until after GW 11. Right now, Pedro Perro, Matty Cash, and Trippier are my top defensive picks this week. But it's incredibly challenging to persuade someone who thinks Nunez is superior to Halaand.

Trofo and Icopress are out of our league. Last season, I tried to catch those two skanks, but the closer I got, the wider the gap, so I kept chasing shadows. I haven't won a single GW freebet in around 8 weeks, which is crazy because I was already on two freebets at this point last season.
What were the top 5 (or 10) last season? Where can I find it?
Now that I'm playing, I'm interested to see who performed well last year and with how many points did it end.
I kinda remember Trofo telling me he was not that good last year
1.Morvile7z 2.Trofo 3. Icopress 4. Can't remember 5. Igebotz.
These were the top 5 teams from the previous season, and Morvile7z was the only one to hold onto the top spot for the entire season. I don't recall the exact distance between I and trofo, but it wasn't more than 50.

This is the probably closest you can find here on the forum:Now that I'm playing, I'm interested to see who performed well last year and with how many points did it end.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62322422
If I remember right, morvile7z was leader whole season, I was second in the end with icopress maybe third?
I had terrible start to the season, I was about 5M after first few rounds, 2M till the world cup and then started my resurgence and finished strong. No way to catch leader but enough to get nice price.

Damn, I felt that we'll have more than 5 winning spots. But then again - that's why the prizes are so attractive.
I'd like to finish the season where I currently am, but considering I'm new in Fantasy I made a lot of mistakes I won't make in the rest of the season. Maybe I can even challenge Trofo at the top.

Darxiaomi: Now is the best time because Halaand is in a fallen state.
I personally think that even a normal GW can top 107 points with ease since the season is still very young.
But I agree with Trofo the most points will surely made during a double GW.
Still feels nice to be currently 2nd
it's my first ever FPL season which means that I will most likely drop out of contention soon.

I want to select a magnificent triple captain so i can cut all the gap between me and the leaders. But in the last round my selection of captain was very poor i put Son as a captain and took the captain out from Salah, very bad move in alst round for me.
You would do better picking players who will haul. Triple captain can only be used once. Whereas someone like Trippier will keep hauling over and over again.

*Best overall GW will be proclaimed by me, following all standard FPL practices, chips are counted, extra transfers are worth -4, etc...
so far the person to beat is goodpunt with 107 points score from GW6.

But what happens if two people tie for the same number of GW points? (In GW4 I also got 107 points.)
Tie breaker is overall rank at the end of season and goodpunt is above you at the moment. It is made that way to offset the enormous advantage people with nothing to play for have in double game weeks to pick up this award. Odds are neither of you will get that reward, it will go to someone wild carding just before biggest double GW and then pulling bench boost or triple captain chip in that double. If I were betting man and I am, i would give odds @1.10 for that kind of scenario to happen. But it is also legit strategy and one that can keep more people playing even when they don't have a chance for top 5 placement.

I think that covers it all, and we are set until PL finishes. These rewards could be worth so much more by the time they get distributed. Good luck and most importantly have fun

What was your reasoning behind choosing him?
What was your reasoning behind choosing him?
it is availability, he will play almost all matches in the season, so always there to jump in when necessary
and he will pick cca. 150 points in the season, which is not bad IMO
maybe that does not look as important, but I am trying to lower transfers numbers, and for that it is a big time how many matches some players will play
10 paid transfers are 40 points, almost a round
and moreover, all transfers take time, and with all pools and competitions, efficiency is starting to be important
otherwise, I would have to skip on some
Considering all fantastic midfield options, I'd say picking Jensen (and then also starting him) is crazy. Worked so far, but mostly because he scored 3 goals out of 0.5 xG.
Exactly this, there is so many midfielders I want to have in my team, i don't need one that i don't like taking a spot. Only thing when I would consider him would be when you have Haaland/Salah combo and need to cut on the money somewhere but I would still prefer Gordon or Neto to Jensen. Both are much more attacking. I have him from the start, picked over Mbeumo, and he provided in last four rounds, which is great since he was on my bench before that, and lately he is in due to injuries
seems that most players playing on news/twitter/academy guides and picking only recommended players
Jensen is within top10 midfielders points/million, and his price is declining, not being recommended anywhere

What was your reasoning behind choosing him? No matter the points won so far, I still would not go with him.
First and foremost, he's a CM. Both him and Mbeumo are midfielders in fantasy, yet Mbeumo plays 25 meters further upfront.
He was cheap, yeah, but I would have benched him anyway - so these points would have been lost for me.

I'm just looking at some stats, what a pick Jensen was at the start of the season. He's still selected by only 2% of players.
He was lucky with his goals, ok, but a return of 46 points from a 5mil player is incredible.

Oh boy! That was harsh, don’t come at him like that, he might have a heart attack. You know Igebotz is a grayed fellow. Sorry man @Igebotz but, Chelsea will still be washed up when they face Arsenal.
I had to tell him the truth as it is without mincing words.Yeah "Champions of Europe" You lot will never sing that!! Chelsea! Chelsea!! Chelsea!!! That hurts
Saka was in contention to make the Man City's fixture so I'm sure being absent from international was just extra precaution imo, and he should be back after the break, however I'm keeping my tabs on Martinelli a lot, he came back with a very big energy, and that seem like something worth feeding off before the momentum drops.
No, he was never in contention! The news leaked that "Arsenal were pissed off at the injury leaks" so they pretended to put Saka in contention when he was unavailable the whole time.
I sensed something was fishy and immediately sold him after that. Took a -4 hit in the process but at least I neutralized it.
Mind game! Arteta is leaning very quickly, he also did the same with Saliba and Gabriel this season. He's activating his inner Mourinho and I love that.
