Oh Ye Salah slanderers and doubters, how are you all faring 
!
Captain fantastic
A goal and an assist for Salah! The only way for any other captain to top him will be a brace, or a brace and an assist, or a hattrick, or even a goal and several assists.!Captain fantastic
first game for Arsenal, we hope it starts with a win and a clean sheet. Arteta needs to start with a good record, like ETH and Slot.
What happened to Quansah man? Injury or what I don't understand that sub.
I had him on my team, but it was lucky for me to keep him on the bench. No injury, just a tactical sub from the coach, no cause for alarm yet, until it becomes a trend after few weeks then you can revisit the decision
I have to admit I laughed at myself when I saw him substituted on 46 minutes (considering he had done quite well in the first half). I'll give him another chance. If he doesn't start next week or is substituted before 61 minutes, I'll have to say goodbye to him.By the way, before the match I was calm, because during the pre-season training he was substituted after 61 minutes in all matches (which is quite good considering his price and the possibility of getting a clean sheet).

Haaland over Salah backers in shambles
What happened to Quansah man? Injury or what I don't understand that sub. Salah and Jota owners enjoy while it last. I'm so jealous

I thought Barco was going to be a nailed starter for Brighton, Lol! smh.

He was getting outfoxed by Liam Delap so Slot hooked him off for Konate who was better at dealing with him.
I'm not mad, I'm happy that Trent is now on 9 points including BPS. My 8th attacker, if you can call him that. Although at least a third of this league already had him so other players need to return too.

Just wait till tomorrow, you'll see a new bandwagon on FPL website as usual most transferred players in, Salah and Jota would for sure be amongst them
The game could really have gone south or a different path, if the Ipswich penalty call had stood and got converted.

You're probably right about stability, but I've chosen a more balanced squad at the moment, hopefully three cheaper players will bring in a similar amount of points than Haaland + Salah + just a slot player for 4 million. However, if Haaland and Salah will score points + captain's bonuses, then my strategy will be wrong.
Captain band is why we pay premium for Salah and Haaland. there isn't a player in the game that will deliver with that kind of consistency. Yes balanced squad will score maybe even more points over 10GWs but you will loose on captains. You have to pick one every GW and chances that you will pick wrong are much higher.Also FOMO, imagine following, Haaland scores a brace against Chelsea and Ipswich looses 4:0 against Liverpool in a game where Nunez could have scored 3 more goals in last 20 minutes he got. Next GW, Haaland plays against Ipswich at home and everyone is captaining him. How do you feel? And he is so expensive that you probably need 3 transfers to bring him in.
Yes, I understand how it works. But if you want to beat the crowd in one move (and not go along with everyone else and hope for randomness) then betting against Haaland/Salah is the right choice. Because if the bet wins you will be higher than everyone else who bet on them. In this sense, betting on them and betting against them are very similar. The risk/reward ratio is the same. You can say that those who bet on them play with odds of 1.1 and those who bet against them 5.0 haha. The only imbalance that may distort the balance in this scheme is the bonus points for captaincy. Something to think about here.
When i saw the lineup and didnt see Garnacho in the starting lineup was really shocked. First round and already a player gets benched was wierd for me. Could have been epic if he scored the goal but sadly that didnt happen. This start could have been really good but what can you do,the season is still really long. I can already see Zirkzee in the first 11 but cant say that for Garnacho honestly.
I want to believe he was rested for some reasons best known to the Manager, he's been the club best attacker since last season and deserve to always start.
And Yes while you're focus on 38 GWs there are managers playing for weekly and monthly prizes. This dude triple captain Zirkzee. FPL is for everyone
That Garnacho miss will already hunt me in the first match of the fantasy pool. Im still shocked that someone can miss an empty net on 1-0 on such a big level of football. Really a shame plus Bruno with so many missed opportunties its a shame
Bruno up front? Idk about that one chief, glad I dodged that bullet (had him on my team right until an hour before deadline)
You didn't come back to say thank you on the Garnacho tip hahaha he almost gave you a perfect start, was very close. He needs to start next game ahead of either Admad or Rashford ( those two are pricks)
Fernandez looks more sharp and dangerous up front, he's going to cook more points for us, I can feel it in my balls.
I hope we don't have any Alts bastards among us this season.

I don't see any point in taking Salah at all, I think he's overrated, 12.5 million is not serious

Agreed if you're looking long-term. Short-term he's a great option because he's a guaranteed starter and LFC has a great opening schedule.
Saka has tough games, Foden won't be playing the first few games, Palmer is way too expensive this season, Son is decent but I want to see how him and Maddison play around Solanke now.
Salah is really expensive but offers stability, especially during times in which there is value to be found in relatively cheap mids like Doku, Garnacho, Jota and many more. Nkunku is a steal, but I'll take him a bit later.
EDIT: here's my team BTW:
Ehhh...
i didn't know about Foden. That's 100%?You're probably right about stability, but I've chosen a more balanced squad at the moment, hopefully three cheaper players will bring in a similar amount of points than Haaland + Salah + just a slot player for 4 million.

Spurs to obliterate Leicester to get to the top.
You really might be asking for way too much with this one right here, I mean looking at how they ended last season, I don't expect drastic difference just yet, Leicester wouldn't seem like a walk in the part for any team in the league rn, imo.
My prediction 5 nil win in favour of Spurs 🤡
I hope the dream doesn't end up as a nightmare, the problem won't be Leicester City, it's going to be Tottenham just being as awfully pathetic as usual, but I guess we'll see, right ?
I'll go with Tottenham not to score 2 goals
