After a 6 pointer last week, I benched M.Cash and switched to a 3-4-2 to accomodate Martinelli in the midfield. He just scored a first-half brace with an assist from Watkins.

E. Halaand PK Missed! -2 hahah I'm alive!
You still got a decent point off Watkins as your captain, his usual average but a double. Still, it appears to be better than the rest of us that let E. Halaand remain captain. He managed to get a goal though and 8 points off him is low but better than GW2.

You had M. Cash on the bench and he pulled 14 points, while Martinelli pulled just 2 points, that must hurt. Still, it’s a decent week to pull up and I must say, this has got to be one week where I made some bad decisions on my team.

Trippier did zero out on me! How disappointing, don’t know what’s wrong with him getting winch an unwarranted yellow card. In between, Klopp is such a magician to have managed to pull this off, getting the right substitute and making the difference on the pitch that even with 10 men, they fixed the score line.

Sorry for this dumb question but I've read about the first break with unlimited transfers.

Any infos when this will happen? Might play my wild card this GW.
Never, there is no free unlimited transfers this season  Angry



Congratulation Cls63 on winning GW3 free bet. 73 points in this round is very respectable, Sterling selection was inspired one, especially since it went against what most content creators shilled this week. This also propelled you to first place in table so now you are the one we have to chase  Grin

Somehow, Darwin manages to steal 8 points (before bps), St. James Park, and everybody's NUFC clean sheet in the process  Shocked

Happy for him, but I had already sold him even before my wildcard - 1 + 1 + 8* points over 3 games is not a good ROI for attack.

Eg. Martinelli has average 4.5pts in the first two games, same as JWP in just one game. Then 3rd game week comes and the former blanks while the latter scores a banger. FPL Economics.

*pending BPS, likely to get all 3.

Salah already accepted the offer so I heard - are you worried about captain options or you're worried about your club retuning to pre- Salah era?

Captain, I feel that I have the edge against all the people having Haaland.With Salah out of my team, I would have to go with Haaland as well.
Re Liverpool - I hoped that Arabs would come for him - getting ~150 mil for him is doable and would be beneficial for the club going forward.

We'll have a conversation about Halaand's football ability one day, and I think I'll enjoy it.

Nobody thinks he's a technically gifted player - sometimes he feels like he's never played football before.
Still - he's a teriffic striker, dangerous from all positions and basically undefendable. He's still got time to grow and he'll be unstoppable - even with his technical deficiency.

Someone please inform Watkins that he is not a midfielder; enough with the assists; I need a goal! Without KDB, Halaand is having a bad day as usual. We'll have a conversation about Halaand's football ability one day, and I think I'll enjoy it.

Foden: no , Alvarez: yes
the lineup for today's game vs. sheffieled utd has now been announced and PG has left Foden on the bench for now. Josko Gvardiol also starts again from the beginning and i think he will now be set in the defense as well.



Basically everyone who has captained Haaland is now out -2 points after that penalty miss. SMH.

First half was abysmal and City better get their gears up the second half.

Maybe this is what happened when Pep is not on the touchline.

No Foden, No Alvarez ?? That's not going to to happen to honest with Bernardo Silva and KDB absent, no gonna happen, so don't bother to have your hope way too high, and I don't think Jeremy Doku's documents have been cleared to allow him take part in today's fixture.

I don't think there is a better time to have the most informative guess on what Guardiola starting XI would be, I'd even take any bet, that I'll be get between 9-10 predictions of the start eleven right.

You might be surprised to hear this, but I'm not aiming for the top of the log just yet; I'm just having fun with my pick while staying near to the gap. And my captaincy decision was completely based on my ST option's recent form, not on hitting the right differential. Halaand and City have the easiest draw this weekend, but Halaand has been horrible without KDB in the midfield, he's been isolated, and he's not getting enough service up front as usual, so I'm concerned about him blanking again.
Am having a hard time believing that you ain’t aiming to be at the top just yet. The weekly freebies is something you would want. I know I want that and again, the idea continues to be not staying far from the prizes but of course, that isn’t something you could predict from your picks.

So there are weekly free bets? I completely forgot about it. That is something I do not want. When the blank and DGW kick in after the international break, we'll know who the true managers are. We're just having a good time right now.


There are also rumors of Salah going to Saudi Arabia - that would make Fantasy a bit more boring. Everybody will go with Haaland then.

I have to find a way to get Maddison into my team. He's really playing offensively - he'll probably be a better choice than Odegaard.

Odegaard was huge in points last season and was an instant pick for me - I'll give him a few more games but I feel he'll have to be sacrificed.

I hope that Pep decides not to have Foden and Alvarez against Sheffield United by being crazy today.  Cheesy

I'm at the 1st position in the weekly table now. If the remaining matches don't change the result I'm about to win my first free bet. The thing that made me get ahead was my transferring Sterling to the midfield absolutely. I hope that Pep decides not to have Foden and Alvarez against Sheffield United by being crazy today.  Cheesy
Anything can happen with Pep and some rumors are already circulating that Foden did not travel with squad or been in training on Friday, tweet also said that he should "come by his own car later". There was also a mention of one defender but I forgot witch, maybe Walker? Anyway I went with Alvarez and his haul with blank from Foden would do me good.

Even Alvarez not starting would do me good.
As far as I am concerned Pep can leave both Alvarez and Haaland on the bench whole game and I will have 24 points to enter from my bench  Grin

Like, I wasn’t particularly proud of my team selection this week. I do baldy needed Bowen on my team because I knew what impact he could make to the game, he didn’t disappoint but then, my bank role didn’t allow it. Can’t believe just about £0.3m kept me away from getting them points from Bowen today. Mbeumo whom I acquired flopped. The whole Palace players was wack! Just few players left from absolute nothingness in the GW.

Trofo, seems our guy is Saka is back with the penalties.

I knew Saka was still Arsenal's penalty guy, because he handed the ball to Odegaard himself the last time out, and that was just out of courtesy, I believe or perhaps didn't feel confident enough, and would rather hand over the responsibility to someone else he believes could.


----------------------------------------------

If there wasn't an imminent International break around the corner, God know I would pulled my first wildcard unapologetically, and I think I already have my go to players for this season, but the transfer is still open so, wildcard now before the end of the transfer window and international could do more harm than go, so I'm just going to try to stay afloat here, and not get hasty with some decisions.  Embarrassed

Argentine representative on gambling board


Yeah man i know that, im argentinian  Grin i change him for two things, one sentimental, to still have one Argentinian on team, and the second because Liverpool face a very strong rival and Manchester a weak one in his home, Garnacho can explode if he make the right things.

I doubt between him and Sterling, b ut i dont have the money to purchase Sterling so, i choose him, you see Sterling scores two goals.... fuck.

First tip I already noticed:
In the FPL, feelings or sympathies to certain clubs/players have absolutely no place - at least not if you want to be successful. You just have to think rationally...

For me it's also my first FPL season and when I think about how the first draft of my team looked like, I'm glad I realized that. Smiley

Yes you are 100% correct, but i play Fantasy for pure fun , im not good on this kind of games, and in sometimes i also forget to change the team , so i put some not so picked players, anyways Garnacho for me can be one of the biggest surprises of the league. Today finally Ten Hag not put him neither in the start and no come from sub.

So here comes Almiron for me rescue.....

Rasfhord yellow card, really pissed me, what an idiot.

Man that knock warning on Maddison made me put him on the bench, frick!

and i left him in my first eleven - in the 17th minute i was then awarded Cool
Never trust those flags in the game, they are often missleading and sometimes plain wrong. There was press conference on Friday and it was known Maddison will be available for the game.

I knew all that and still left him on the bench thinking he will probably get just 30 min. I also bought Alvarez just for next two games so had to give him opportunity to play. While we are on Spurs topic I don't remember any forward ever having as bad game as Richarlison today.

Last season, I learned the hard way not to rely solely on the injury indicators in the app. It happened twice last season with Shaw, where the app showed he was injured but he started the game. This is yet another reason why watching club's pre-game conference is essential ( for players you own).

Speaking of Richarlison, I wish some players would say, "Fuck it, this is not my destiny," and leave for another club. Since joining Tottenham, he has never had a good game; he has always performed well for Brazil but never for Tottenham. At Everton, he was a joy to watch. Feel sorry for him.

Brighton with are being brought back down to earth, but guess who still didn't learnt their lessons of having Areola in the lineup, that'd me be and Mbuemo and Wissa decided to go on a break when brought them in, no regrets, yet except Salah goes blank, though!

Onana 11 points from 3 games.  Areola 19 points from 3 games. Now guess who I left on the bench for those 3 GW. I will learn the hard way for trusting Onana and the shitty Manutd defense.

I was thinking that Gabriel would play today. However I have understood as of today that Arteta doesn't have any intention to give place to Gabriel in the starting eleven this season. Stones/Gabriel duo are causing me to lose points every week. I have got rid of Gabriel for now. I'm thinking of transferring another defensive player in Stones' place as well next week. I have made a loss of 0.3 million just because of these two players. Horrible!!


I'm not even worried about Stones, perhaps because I never had him but Gabriel's time on team is coming to an end, and I don't think I'll be having anyone from the team in my defense anymore, not at least until I'm sure that Arteta has a complete idea of what he want to achieve with his new signings and the brilliant ones he had last season.

Is this accurate information or your guess (I'm a beginner and it's quite difficult for me to understand the nuances of the rules so far for certain reasons)? I'm just wondering, I understand the logic that defenders should be on the field, but on the other hand, if my team consists of 8 players due to injuries, then this is also wrong and illogical.

If it was like you said then a manager who doesn't want to play a defensive player would have tried to gain an advantage for themselves by choosing defenders who aren't possible to play in. It clearly says on the website as a rule that there must be 3 defensive players minimum.



Thank you very much for the detailed explanations, I could find them myself but this site does not allow users from my country + it does not always let through VPN (due to the use of the TOR protocol) so it's a whole problem for me to dig there.

Brighton are down 0-3 by the 70th minute and my multi bet is burned out, very sad, somehow I was able to avoid that from Arsenal (I chose double chance for Arsenal).

And here I am thinking I was so smart to wild card into an "elite" team... fast forward to today, and all Brentford players don't score or assist, Brighton is also having a bad field day, J. Andersen and JWP score from my bench and pretty much my only consolidation so far was correctly predicting a Saka penalty (and dumping Ode accordingly).

Maddison was also on my radar, backed away when I saw the injury concern.
