While we are on Pep roulette topic, it could get even worse. He had surgery in Barcelona to solve chronic back problems. He will not be with the team in next two weeks. What that means if anything for City and their players choices I have no idea. Probably not much with all the technology available these days.

Will be out until after the international break, which means that assistant Juanma Lillo will represent the team on the sidelines while Pep works remotely from his hospital bed. Nothing changes, and Pep Roulette continues; the only thing missing from the team is his dominating and motivational work from the sidelines. I doubt Pep will put his trust in Juanma Lillo to make independent decisions.

My captain stays on Watkins - Halaand likely going to blank.

Small tip: Take Wilson out and replace him with Watkins - Aston Villa play Burnley this weekend, and he'll be my captain.

After reading your post, I bet $100 on Watkins to score a goal.

For me, it will be fine in any scenario ... if he scores I will win money, if not, I will overtake you on points. Grin

I will most likely be out over the weekend (at least 24 hours before the first match) so I have a day or so to think about who I should replace Maddison with (although I think I'm protected from the price cut). However, I need to decide quickly, because if the price of Foden increases, I will not have many options.

My eyes are on the next players: Phil Foden, Richarlison, Sterling.

That's a good bet for someone who has two assists in the last two games, and he's getting closer to a brace and an assist against Burnley this weekend. And for your midfield option, I'd think Foden is a better choice if you're comfortable with Pep Roulette, but having more than two City players on your team is riskier than diving down from the Egyptian pyramids. If I were you, I'd go for Sterling instead. He's Poch's new preferred attacker. Good attacking returns + 90mins football. Richarlison is inconsistent.

bear in mind that Villa scored four against Everton, and Watkins was not on a scoresheet

I will take two assists over 1 goal every day of my life.

but overall, Gabriel was holding me back, so he is out now
will be an interesting week, several top teams play home matches, with a big probability to win and have clean sheet

This was actually one of the main drivers behind my decision to leave Haaland out of my team.
90% of people had him in their teams the last time I checked - meaning that I'm in a really good position for the freebets any time he struggles.

With KDB out, I'm curious to see if people will start selling him. He'll still get a shitload of points, but the price to pay is high.

I give it to you guys, the Livecasino boys, getting to win the first and second second GW freebies but then,

What was some way to think! Living E. Haaland out based on a priced option for most. Still, it’s one way to be out of the competition because, he does comes up with interesting points at the end of the game and doesn’t flop very much. In 5 games, you could expect him to show his big boots in 4 of the games.

That means, you’ve got a lot of triers to make and there ain’t any promises about whom is used to measure up being his equal in points at the end of the day. We just trying our hands on strategies and this happens to have worked out good for you in this round. Congrats

After finishing the first week 5 points ahead of you it became quite bad for me to get 5 points behind you this week. The presence of Gabriel and Stones at the same time among my defense choices put me in a really difficult position. I chose Gabriel because of thinking that he would be able to score more goals than Saliba by set pieces. However it looks like Arteta's plans this season are much more different. I also think Foden's price can increase.

To find out if Arteta's plans are different from last season, we must wait until GW4. I moved Stones out of this GW, and Nunez is another player I'm thinking about getting away of. Due to his insufficient playing time and Klopp's diminished interest in him, I don't believe he'll score many points this season.

In this Gameweek, I should have had 60 points, but instead I had 58. I'm not sure if Fantasy has a scoring system problem.

I started to climb positions, they care... im going for you (people between 10º and 29º position, the other ones are in other league, for now.....).

I think i climb only because Haaland dont make goals and give thousands of points to everyone. I have Julian Alvarez but he doesnt make so much points.

Congratulations to you. I remember when you were placed at the bottom of the league after GW1 outcome. For me, I'm dropped 3 more places this week. Arsenal and Man Utd midfielders did very little to boost my points for GW2. I even lost more points from my defense (Onana, Shaw, Burn, Trippier) none of them had a cleansheet so I lost all those points.

My next plan of action now is to only make changes that will be critical for next 2-3 fixtures.

Only Phil Foden interest me right now even of I don't have him on my team yet. For sterling and Richardlison, not so sure. The first tournament game I watched, he was ineffective and Sterling won't do much unless Chelsea team improve + he's not the PK taker for Chelsea.

I want to make space in my team to put Haaland but its very difficult in terms of money and also in term of free transfers, so for now Haaland remains out of my team.

If I were you, I would not take a risk by putting Halaand into my team, at least not right now, because you have a very strong front line with Alvarez and Nketieh, both of whom are expected to score this weekend.

They are gonna give me back my points in Fantasy? Grin

No! Fuckers were even worse last season. There was a player that scored goal, not sure anymore who it was and it was a question if he touched the ball or not. First it was given, then Fa decided it was own goal. Then few hours later they revived and gave it back to player. Points were already calculated and we got robbed for regular goal in Fantasy.

Uff man that its really bad, just imagine if you lose for one or two points all the tournament and was for something like that, i can be really mad.

It was March's goal and Mitoma assist- I can't remember who he scored against.

Fantasy rules forbid adjustment of points after they have been awarded; they jerks robbed me of March's 5 pointer last season.

Another red card reversed shows the VAR's and refs' incompetence. We're only two games into the season, and the VAR has already made several errors.

it was Brighton for sure, can't remember was it Mitoma or March to get robbed for that goal

looking at my squad it is really worst happening, had Watkins, thinking at least to have some points if Everton is going to be down against Villa, and Villa scored 4 goals without their only Forward on scoresheet
same for Newcastle, captained Haaland to hedge that with three Newcastle players (GK and Trippier), but Alvarez was only one on scoresheet

some things will be changed between weeks, two free transfers are there to be used

Alexis Mac Allister red card has been overturned.

There's already been a stampede transferring him out. You wonder if he'll slide down to 5.9m at midnight and become a bargain buy.

I was gonna change him, but i decided to wait a few days more because i want to be sure his replacement its gonna play, now with this new i dont know what to do really.

About the red card, i said that in one previous post, it was a non sense. So justice in someway. They are gonna give me back my points in Fantasy? Grin

If what you said about Saka no longer being on penalty to be the case the, I will gladly rather have Odegaard ahead of him Huh

I do not think it is on a permanent basis, Arteta is just trying to mix things up for Arsenal and not be as predictable as he was last season. You could see the confusion on the face of Johnstones the Crystal Palace Goalkeeper because he had clearly studied and prepared for Saka in the case of a penalty in the game. He was smoked by Captain Martin Ødegaard.

So this season, I am sure penalties will not only be taken by Saka, Martin Ødegaard and even Jorginho will have their chances to be on penalty duties in all the competitions that we are involved in.

Also, seeing Partey and Declan Rice play together is something unexpected.

If some of you are still confused why he won the GW, wait until tomorrow when official page calculates all the points and makes transfers. Odegaard has 3 bonus points, Henry is coming from the bench and White has 1 bonus point. This was perfect Monday for his team

Total of 71 points.

I can't say I'm not happy with 55 points and 13th place

I knew Odegaard would be the silver bullet at some point.

Now if only Mings wasn't injured and I had some non-blanking keeper, I'd be very close too.

That makes two us, I don't think I can complain much since it was an upward trend for me in the leaderboard and I was able to move up a couple positions up to 12th, that should be just right above you, I must say there have been a lost of twist and turns to my projection and expectations for the first two game weeks and might be forcing me to take a few drastic steps in the next 2-3 game weeks if there are no changes, I picked my team without emphasizing of defense yet and mostly based on game time and expected productivity, but it's either coaches have decide to disrupt their defense lines a bit and solid defenders like Gabriel isn't getting to start a game, or team that you'd expect a clean sheet are just utter bullsh*t, meanwhile the premium midfielders so far are nothing to write about, I understand that it's still to early to get in a panic zone, but accumulating just 2-3 extra points weekly is what often defines the winner, not just a couple of good game weeks.
