Did you gave captain armband to Jesus? I have a fun fact for you, due to extremely high ownership (over 80%) and high captaincy rate on Jesus (41.28%) and even 1% of triple captains on Jesus, math works out in a way that if you just had him in a team (not captain) you are actually better off if he doesn't get any points

Nope not a captain, gave the captain armband to Haaland and hoping that he will score against Newcastle. Well I got 3 Arsenal players on my squad, Ramsdale and Martinelli ended up with 6 points and Jesus only ended up with 4 points which could have been 5 if it wasnt for the yellow card. Interesting facts you got there, how do I check on percentage numbers like that though for some other players?

Odegaard is terrible choice from fantasy point of view.

I dont know what the heck is going on but the moment we both agreed that Odegaard is a bad choice from fantasy point of view, he scored two goals and he got 13 points lol. I switched him up with another midfielder because I need to remove one Arsenal player to put in Jesus but Jesus didnt even score any goal but got himself a yellow card Roll Eyes

Regarding transfers I think you are wrong but I am not 100% sure. Those two you mentioned went that way because there was people with 4 players from same club in the game which is against the rules. If player transfers out of the league I think you have to burn the transfer or collect zero points.

You meant to lose every point the players had before moving? What exactly do you mean by "burn the transfer"?

I mean you have to spend your own transfer. either free one or pay for it -4, just like any other transfer you decide to do.

Chelsea attack is really though to pick through, there isn't anybody worth the price tag. That is why James is such a good option, he gets us clean sheet points and still looks like one of most dangerous attacking players in the club. I just hope he will play WB in most games and not CB like in the last one until minute 60.

Milner will play a lot but you can't expect him to get you too much points. I guess he is not on penalties any more and he doesn't even have free kick or corners. It seems to me best you can hope for is some assist every few games. But what do I know, I bashed Odegard the other day and he scored heaps of points today, better to be quiet and not provoke lady luck.

That is why I have a chat channel on Sportsbet come join us some time so we can discuss fantasy. Can't help you without you giving me the squad. Chelsea is coming to good fixture run so James and Cucurella in defense look good but you are Chelsea supporter so I am sure you already have at least one of them.

I am not confident in our attack, I only need James and Kouli, two Chelsea players who have been a major part of my team thus far. Due to recent injuries at Liverpool, I was able to swap Soumaré for Milner; I expect Milner to be crucial in the upcoming games

another miracle result for Spurs. They get ouplayed throughout the whole game and still managed to get the points.

Meh. Thanks, Harry

i saw a 12 pts earlier but now it's 10, still good... Now we wait for the G.Jesus & Arsenal masterclass EDIT* i sold Bailey for some Brentford shitter and i have A.Pereira on the bench, ffs i deserve it

patience is key !!! I Captain Kane! I was about to swap Kane for Jesus when I noticed the number of managers holding G. Jesus!! 80% is a fucking number, I decided to defy it! I can't wait to see him flop. I sold Perisic last week, and he earned a lot of points today, but I don't regret it, Schar is batter option

Odegaard is terrible choice from fantasy point of view. He gets you minutes but very low number of assists/goals. Almost like defensive midfielder. It is no coincidence that even top players on DM position cost about 6M. They are just not worth it.

Yeah I guess the midfielders that is useful in fantasy is pretty much those attacking midfielders / wingers thats would score / assist otherwise it wont really matter with the play minutes. I'll see how this goes on GW3 though, I think I have decent squad for GW3. Well Haaland and Jesus should be able to score some goals in their next games though

Am still studying the game and how it goes but, from the little experience I've got with the points, it's a bad idea to choose flat defenders or midfielders. Anyone stable enough player could get a 90mins, match bonus and a few other shits that FPL gives points for but, not so many could score or give an assist and as such, you look out for players that are on the offensive and could attempt something g or even earn you points from an assist.
Been looking to get Harry Kane and Burns off my team for Haaland and haven't decided on Burns replacement. Perhaps it might be between either of them in the end as they would be playing agents themselves. Can't have one give me points only to minus it from the other.

I'm also very tempted to use my free transfer for this week to bring on Rodrigo, but I don't want sto risk it vs a Chelsea defense which might be too much for him to thrive against.

That is the problem with casual managers, they have already made the transfer without caring that he plays against Chelsea next. That leaves us with two options, jump on Rodrigo train, probably bench him for one week and profit from price rise or wait until next week and risk to get priced out of him. I have gone with first option this time around. I believe that it is somewhat worth to chase prices in first half of the season while it is much better to wait with transfers as the season comes to its end.

Yeah, especially players that are naturally strikers but listed on FPL as midfielders, Salah, Martinelli, Rodrigo and so on, and the best part is you get 1 point more if they should compared to what are awarded to strikers and you also get an additional point if the team keeps a clean sheet. That's where having De Bruyne become essential, though I don't have him in my team yet (and would have stick to the Man City double at the back line until they start conceding goals in consecutive games. I'm also very tempted to use my free transfer for this week to bring on Rodrigo, but I don't want sto risk it vs a Chelsea defense which might be too much for him to thrive against.

If you want just incorrect advises I suggest you load yourself with 3 United players and take as much minus points as possible. Start with Kane and exchange him for Ronaldo, I hear he could be going to Dortmund so that is perfect way to ruin your season. Since you have problems with Tanganga and Soumare change them to Maguire and Martinez, that way you will collect minus points in the games instead of those pesky 0 pointers.

Are you sure you get a free transfer if player leaves? Never had that problem but I expected that you have to burn your transfer to get rid of him.

Haha, I'm curious to hear your truthful responses now! In my team, not a single member of the Manchester United squad is worth a chance. The only person I actually believed in was M. Greenwood, but the mf has already been switched and he is still a long way from returning.

Players with more than four teammates had to make a free swap when Cucurella and Zichenko both moved to another team. I believe that a player transferring to another league is a free transfer.

Can Salah succeed on a chilly Monday night at Old Trafford without Firmino, Nunez, and Jota? Will Halaand be a successful captain in GW4? Only incorrect answers.

I'll expect a more conservative game between Man Utd and Liverpool, so I'm not totally expectant of Salah to explode, but the only about very certain thing is that ceteris paribus, Salah would be on the pitch for 90 minutes, but Haaland might not get past 70-75 minutes. I'm yet to decide on my options and Gabriel Jesus is still well a considerable option for me at this point.

Halaand should score, but it won't be a great option. I'll choose between KDB and Kane because I don't think Salah will contribute much this week.

With Tanganga and Soumaré on my team, what should I do? Triple 0's in the previous 3 games. I was hoping to get rid of Soumare without losing any points when he moved to Monaco, but the mf is still not going, so I'm stuck with him! Soumare is not in Rodgers' plan for the year, and his move to Monaco has been delayed for 2 weeks now. Tanganga was a key player for Conte last season and appeared in almost every game; therefore, it is puzzling why he has been sitting on the bench for the past three games without playing a single minute.

What do you guys think about trading Harry Kane for Jesus to save my team, I need Jesus to do that. I expect Jesus to score more points than Harry Kane this season because the Arsenal team is centered around him, but my gut keeps telling me to wait until GW5 and evaluate both points. Please give me some advice! (Only incorrect ones)

A number of deals have also been completed over the course of this week that I'm considering to bank on when I'm playing my wild card...

that is telling you a lot about the game
it is just considering to small part of football matches, and basically force players to have more attackers and goal-scorers in their team, since all other aspects are not qualified toward points

can't say that it is bad, but it requires certain modification toward that mode when you picking players, you should have formation with three attackers, otherwise you are mocked

I never even thought about Ødegaard

Had odeegard for two weeks already, not really getting many points from him despite that he played for full 90 minutes. Decided to transfer him out because I had to replace Ronaldo with Jesus lol but I got too many Arsenal's players already so that cost me 4 points for this week. Getting absolute no choice I guess because I dont think Ronaldo / Manchester United will score against Liverpool in such a 'sorry' state

I can't say much about Salah even when he's underperforming, you know you're not alone and almost every other guys is there with you, the only difference might be when they opt for other people as captain,

Its Salah though, he always bounce back eventually. Keeping him around seems to be the best strategy for now I guess.

Maybe even better example is Firminho in his prime, another great player, very important to the club and even classified as forward but you just know that both wings and wing backs in Liverpool will outscore him when tallying points come end of season.

It is literally like I have Bailey on my hands. I needed to sell him before his value decreased. However I was too late to do that. Frankly, I want to add Sterling to my squad somehow despite his high cost. However I don't know how to do this without using wildcard.

I was very indecisive between Martinelli and Ødegaard and I preferred Ødegaard. Unfortunately this choice cost me a lot for now. After Trofo's article also effected me this week I added Cucurella to my defense line. Salah's low performance this week and Liverpool's condition still make me think about if I should make a change.

I never even thought about Ødegaard, neither would I have chosen him ahead of Martinelli, but I'm not gonna lie, Bukayo Saka was my first choice and I only had to settle for Martinelli because of my budget restriction and it's turned out to be a blessing in disguise so far.

I can't say much about Salah even when he's underperforming, you know you're not alone and almost every other guys is there with you, the only difference might be when they opt for other people as captain, I was very sure of Salah as my captain in game 2, I didn't even flinch having him there, but then It would have been more devasting if Haaland as most people settled for produced great numbers.

and Salah proved his "second round curse", he actually never scored in second round, what a statistics

I have a feeling Salah will more than make up for that blank against United. I am actually having very though time deciding what to do with 3rd Liverpool player. Trent and Salah are in and will be probably for the whole season but that 3rd spot is killing me. Had Robertson in first two GW and now I feel Liverpool double in defense is too much but I still believe Robbo is gonna do better than Dias come end of the season. Maybe even to try and play with just 2 Liverpool players? Never thought I would even consider it.
