It is what it is, I still think getting rid of Liverpool was good move, you can't target team that plays against United, Arsenal, City and blanks in next 5GW.

agree here
it happened, and it is actually second win like this for Liverpool this season, one would think they are challenging the title, but they are far (CL is a reality)

but I am mad on United, not Liverpool, this is second week this season they prove me wrong thinking they are more than shit team, first was 6:3 against City
one can simply not conceive 6,7 goals per match and fight for title

I'm absolutely devastated with Liverpool's win I had Darwin, Cody Gakpo and Mo Salah last game week, and I had to take a minus 8 points hit, to get rid of Gakpo and Nunez only for them to get emphatic and terrifying result and 2 goals apiece for each of them, absolutely blistering!!!

it's a total chaotic week for me in the pool, if only this had happened in their double gameweek Sad

Many of us in same situation, I got rid of Salah, Nunez and Trent this week. Felt like a perfect week to pull wildcard and prepare for double and blank game weeks and then Liverpool does this. I already know there is a shitload of dead teams having my points x3 or x4 this week.

It is what it is, I still think getting rid of Liverpool was good move, you can't target team that plays against United, Arsenal, City and blanks in next 5GW.

didn't had Liverpool players, except for Alisson, but this is as far from expected as anything can be
and it was evenly distributed between their top players, each two goals scored

my gameweek was real shit, but it is what it is, hard weekend overall

Is the Newcastle dream over? I did get really lucky keeping Almiron in one final game when he last scored, otherwise I'm not liking any of them right now.

Newcastle is still good but they lost their touch in attack, from fantasy perspective it is all about Trippier and maybe one more defender or Pope.

I'm 56 points + Salah, Darwin and 4 other players yet to play. my game plan is going well.

I find it really hard to compliment a winger in City but he's got to be the standing on the shoulders of the rest in the games I do see him play. But yeah he's not really been in contention for FPL because of Pep.

Trippier yeah, probably happiest pick for me all day at the back (minus flirting with TAA/Robbo).

A slump week for me, I suppose, thinking of what could have been. Even Robbo getting the assist not likely to top 50 for me, kinda regret not keeping Salah on but hey, Darwin having his worst game in a long time too... looks... tired? And still scores? Yes =)

Both players began their senior England careers in 2020, making Saka one of the most crucial players in the team. The best player for England in the recently concluded world cup and Euro 2020 was Saka, who is a year younger than Foden. Saka is a starter for the current England team, but you can't say the same for Foden. Saka has more caps and more goals than Foden in the National team. Foden is a good player, but he's not as talented or as influential in a team as Saka. Avoid assuming that Foden is superior to Saka because of the Young POTY; in the EPL, the players with the best PR win awards. It was extremely clear that Saka was robbed last season.

That is not so clear, Saka has luck on his side as well, he is the only one that naturally plays on left flank for England. On right flank you have Rashford, Sancho, Sterling and Foden which makes it much tougher to cement the spot. I am not saying Saka is bad player, he is great but I feel that Foden is capable of even more if he gets guaranteed playing time both for club and country. But I wouldn't give him a spot in England squad while you have Rashford in this form.

THIS IS NOT CLEAR Cool

With Arsenal and England, Saka plays on the right wing with players like Rashford and Sterling waiting on the line, while Foden plays on the left wing with Jack Grealish and occasionally Rashford. The manager sees what we don't, thus it's not a coincidence that Foden gets benched at both the national and club levels. saka started as a left back, now fix him anywhere on the field and you will see result. i like this guy.

I have never once rated Foden as England's best young player; a complete winger must have a good dribble ratio and not just run into space and score a sitter; a player like Foden will struggle in a team like Manchester United or Chelsea. He scored goals against some farmers in the FA CUP and against Newcastle, and he is projected as one of the best winger in the league when young Saka is doing it week in and week out. its funny but that's my unbiased oppinion

I'm 56 points + Salah, Darwin and 4 other players yet to play. my game plan is going well.

Nobody can work in team like Chelsea

If they had Messi and Ronaldo in their prime they would find a way to make them look like Lukaku and Ziyech. It is always the team that launches players to their best form. Saka is great player but has a lot of luck that he is the most important player of the club that is playing great at the moment. Just compare him with Saka for England and you will see the difference I am talking about.

The Chelsea thing is true Grin

While we are on Arsenal subject, what a come back yesterday. Really hope Trossard injury is not serious because they can't replace Jesus, Nketiah and Trossard at the same time.

Although I didn't watch much of the game, I did notice that the goal came 2 minutes after the official extra time. Was this due to an injury or was it just another EPL thing?

Foden plays, finally, and scores, and I knew I felt an itch to put him in but decided to keep with Haaland (all the while while actually keeping Trippier on my bench).

Is the Newcastle dream over? I did get really lucky keeping Almiron in one final game when he last scored, otherwise I'm not liking any of them right now.

I said it many times, Foden is the best winger in PL for me, only problem he has Pep for manager and I am not taking him for sure. And the bar is really high for best winger, we have Saka and Rashford in form of his life but Foden is the most complete player if only he could have a safe position like others. He is playing now just because Mahrez is getting rested for the Champions League.

I'm definitely keeping Salah for the time being, there is no one, I would rather waste 4 points to get in for him, Bruno Fernandes is having a though fixture, for all we know De Bruyne might undergo another Guardiola experiment, so who else Son ? he's being nothing what his name suggest this season a "bouncing baby boy", and I'm not so positive on Phil Foden or Mahrez either so, it might take a while before I trust someone else from City except Ederson and Haaland, unless Man City gets eliminated in all competition, then a huge maybe.

and I'm not so positive on Phil Foden or

Foden is back, and scoring goals
Haaland seemed as great value and perma captain, but does not provide much lately, will reconsider his position

Akanji was in, and that was good

Arsenal showing why they are not reliable at all, and Kepa took clean sheet

Yeah, Foden is back into fold but for how long, who knows with Guardiola in charge, but I think he might get decent minutes for a while given is current form, I'd probably keep Haaland as my perma captain, because even with Arsenal you get 3-4 choice to pick from without knowing who exactly is going to explode, Saka as the penalty take with the slight advantage, Arsenal haven't had much of that this season.

Brighton being more terrifying than expectations but I went for the wrong guy in Solly March today, silly gamble but budget oriented Sad

I don't think punter Toney will be running in the upcoming games after admitting the sin.
Cheating in football matches has a significant impact on fantasy game coaches as well as club results, so I believe Toney will face repercussions from the team.

Mbeumo springs to mind. Huh

The problem is that the charges will take some time to be processed, although is likely to be before the end of the campaign (as per reports from BBC.co.uk) and with his lawyers said to be involved already despite pleading guilty it's going to take a while before the FA will come to a decision with such numerous number of charges, I'd expect him to play the next couple of games including their double gameweek, provided he doesn't pick two yellow cards in the process because he's two yellow cards away from a suspension.

Mbuemo does offer a valuable and very cheap option though, and without Toney he sure would be the first to come to mind.

I already have two Brighton players, and my team is set to play until GW 29.
What are your thoughts, Darwin owners? Should I keep him or sell him

Added Mitoma back, so I'm full up on Brighton, but I chose to bring back Darwin and put Rashford out (I smell a victory, and want to take full advantage).

I'm full Brighton packed too! I'm putting my life on the line with Brighton is also completely packed for me! I'm putting my life on the line with Mitoma, Ferguson, and Epstus; I kept Darwin and Salah and permanently removed Nketieh. Despite everything that is going on around him, it appears that Toney will play. I'm not willing to take a big risk on him.

Salah also out though, to reshuffle my board, he normally gets goals against United but he might end up feeding Nunez more this time.

That being said Kepa is still almost 1M cheaper and Chelsea has much better fixtures going forward. Liverpool is playing United, Arsenal, City and blanking in next 5 games. No point in having their players for me.

have them both, dilemma is just who to bench
will not sold any of them at the moment, it would be a waist of free transfer, without much reasoning behind

Alisson was good for last double week, but will put Kepa for this week, and yeah, no more Liverpool players in my team either, not looking good in next few weeks
