0:0 draw in Chelsea-Arsenal would be good for me.

I might not be totally against that with Sanchez in goal for my squad.

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

I was able to arrive at 2 transfer decisions, I have save them before I end up regretting it, I was completely shortsighted and didn't remember we have another international next, I really wouldn't used up those transfer or limit it to just one, since the other player might not be of significant importance over the player I transferred out until the next 2 game weeks, perhaps, cumulatively over 3-5 game weeks.

In theory, this is the GW where I make some difference against the rest of the pool.
This round is what I was having in my sights before we all make big changes again.

Most of my players have easy home fixtures, I'm only worried that I don't have any offensive LFC assets. I think Villa's up for a very difficult game tonight.

Same here, this is the round where I give captain band to a guy that has very low ownership and either gain something or cement my position in mid table mediocrity. Whatever happens it will be at least -4 next week for me and slow grind to better positions.

Even considered tipple captain but decided against that. Would be a bit too much.

0:0 draw in Chelsea-Arsenal would be good for me.

I don't know if anyone here is also playing the fantasy on duelbits other than icopress who is literally on my ass there, it feels good to see another user from the community here starting quite well there as well, it's tough to keep the balance between both squads, as they use another set of pricing and scoring mechanism there but the overall idea remains the same.

My team there looks easy for the changes I'm planning to make this game week, and it's completely different from coming to a conclusion for me on FPL, on there, I'm able to not take chances with Cole Palmer and switched to both Bruno and Isak, while still being able to keep my Haaland, Salah and Solanke, however, on FPL I've made over 20 transfer drafts in the past 2 days, and still nowhere close to being comfortable with the outlook, If I can't arrive at any solution within the next 2-3 hours, then it's autopilot for this week, again.

Halaand is my top priority, I don't know what to do with him.

I will wait until the final hour tomorrow before deciding. I am not sure City will want to lose two games in a row in the Premier League, knowing what that will mean. I also don't think Brighton have the defenders that will be able to torment Haaland every minute of the game.

Hello. I am back. Sold Eze, brought in Smith Rowe. Wanted to get Fulham's Morgan actually, but then they're up against Liverpool so no go there. Prepared to sell Gvardiol (what?!) to bring Saka back in but my budget's all gone. Hanging on to Haaland.

Sure, but in a team with Haaland and 2 of the following 3 (Saka, Palmer, Salah), do you captain Haaland in the upcoming games?
If you plan to, sure, holding on to him might be a good choice.

That was my weekly headache for a while. I got it right half the time. Half the time did not, even without Saka (once I offloaded him when I thought he was injured). Salah has been the right choice more times, but I actually got all the right Haaland times wrong =( Including last week when I forgot to switch.

True, but there is no worse feeling in FPL than having no Haaland and watching City play, especially after he scores first goal in first 10 minutes. I think I will go that route as well but I fully expect to suffer a lot in some weeks but in the long run it should work out.

I think I wouldn't in any of the upcoming rounds, so the obvious choice is to assemble a team without him.

Keep him. The moment you guys sell him for Saka/Palmer/Salah he will just recharge his batteries and sink non-holders to the bottom of the table.

The problem is that you want to focus on Arsenal and Chelsea players now, which you can't properly do if you hold onto Haaland.
Palmer and Saka will outscore Haaland and a 5.5 midfielder across the following 5 games.
Then again, if you can fit Haaland, Palmer and Saka, might make sense. But I know I'm seriously considering going without him and taking a ~6 or 7 mil striker that will probably score some goals and allow me to have a much better team overall.

I just got triple Forest! And sold Trent, who has offered almost nothing for FPL players this season.

Why now? They had great run of fixtures which is over about now. I had Wood from GW1 and I am considering selling him or at least benching him in about half of the matches.

Wood is just to cover my bases. It's the double Forest defense that will be key. They seem to be very good at shutting out the opposing side.

I would not bench Wood if I were you as that will just end up like benching Vardy was for me.

What to do with Haaland is top priority for all of us. There isn't a clear answer and i just know it, points swing will be brutal.

Aston Villa, ~~Southampton~~, Man city, Newcastle and Fulham doesn't seems like a good run of games to me. I don't see any clean sheet here, although he's not my problem at the moment, he's in for a long term. Halaand is my top priority, I don't know what to do with him.

Forest run of good games might have come to temporary halt, but it doesn't take away how good Wood's been, at least from FPL stand point, Forest would still be have their chances in each of those games, and Wood being on spot kicks makes me still fancy him to say the least, he's price still pretty much is a steal compare to what else is out there, one, perhaps two players within the same price bracket would I consider to have a great run of fixture that's is worth switching to, however their performance as a team is still what I'm wary of.

@buwaytress, considering Manchester City's recent performances, do you still think selling Haaland is a bad idea? The penalty he missed last night might have affected him mentally as well Tongue

I've already started planning to build a team without Haaland.

Thanks for the 2 free bets, I have to thank Wilson who scored 2 goals after 90 minutes, after this Flekken with 10 saves and 12 points dropped to 4 points and and then I won this gameweek

Another one of my defensive players to cost me points in 90+ minute.
This one was even more painful considering that he would have got the max bonus as well, so 8 points lost in the last 5 minutes.

Overall a good round when I least expected it, this one looks good for me on paper. The question is only who to captain, I think it won't be Haaland.

The second goal brought me extra 3 points for a Robinson assist, I probably would have sold him if I had spare transfers but he’s literally the least of my worries now because almost no defender is getting the precious cleansheet bonus even when they’re expensive, like TAA, Gvardiol and Gabriel but their occasional attacking return is what one lean a bit towards.

I’d probably still keep faith with Haaland as my captain for this week.

Some people may still want to risk him for GW11 against Brighton. Manchester City facing defeat in their last game will want to make sure they take it out on Brighton, Haaland will likely be at the end of many attempts.

I do fancy him against Brighton high line defense though. KDB is also back to the squad.

Pep could not wait until after the international break for KDB. Two consecutive bad results for Manchester City, Brighton will be the team to suffer it!
