Saka always does this when he plays like shit - so that people shift focus to the 'injury' and ask themselves whether he was bad on the pitch because of it.
We'll see tonight, and you can still make your decision later. I will probably keep him, I expect him to start for Arsenal.

While Saka's injury might not be a serious one, Arsenal would still need to approach playing him with caution, and if there is the slightest of discomfort I don't think the club would risk playing him against a team like Bournemouth.
If what happened in past with Arteta is taken as guarantee of future doings - Saka plays if he can stand on his feet. He was nursing minor injury for half of the last season and didn't miss a single game because of it.

This national breaks are just stupid i dont see the point in this national league only for players to get injured. Walking is something but dosent have to mean much if he plays i think he might go from the bench. Still time to see will follow it up in a few days if he is better and training.
Maybe he can walk but that dosent mean he is fit to play. So this is all our speculation what will happen. We can only watch the media and see if he will play or not. Would be good to know if it was 1-2 days before we look our players in.
Well i used up triple captain and wild card so used two tokens already and i think that might be a problem for the future. [...]
You really shouldn't regret it. Your triple captain's vis was played very successfully.It was pretty helpfull if i didnt use it i woould have been in terrible trouble but now i used it up and will cost in the future. Hopefully things change in the future. As far as i seen now 3 players are injured in my team if they dont recover it will be a serious blow on my first 11. Konsa,Havertz amd Saka are injured so far hopefully something changes before the matches start.
I really was going to pull an early transfer to bring in Saka and be rid of Eze, I decided against it when I saw that Eze wasn't in the England squad for the international break, seems I might have dodged a bullet there, my team still look intact without any injury worries, at least not yet since there is still a handful of fixture to be played.
Aside potential tough fixtures to navigate through, I'm now okay with my team composure for the next game week.
I dont know this is all so confusing,if Saka dosent play it will be a big hit because im expecting big points from him in the next round. So its a question if i should waste a transfer to switch him or not. Or if i should just rearrange my bench that isnt that strong.

I can't say for sure, but I don't think Saka's injury is anything serious because I saw him walking on a video on X;https://x.com/TheHorrnyLad/status/1844491703023173939
Then for Havertz, maybe Arteta just wanted him to rest. Speculations though!

It's just part of the game and nothing can be done about it, even if there is no nation league during this international break, there still would have been friendly matches, and players can get injured at any time, it really isn't just during international breaks, haven't there been a handful of players that have picked up knocks and injuries right just from their club's training ground.

Usually there were better opportunities later in the season with the double game weeks but this season there should be way less those opportunities due to reschedule of FA Cup games.
Yeah, but there will still be at least 1 or 2 such rounds - meaning that in theory the time to use TC is then.
People used it well on Haaland and he did deliver, but like you said - it's good to have the TC chip available near the end of the season when you're chasing. If you make it count, it can be the difference.

One more wildcard will be available after gw19

I always try to save the tokens for later, but in fact sometimes is worse, you wait so much to use it and when the times come, its not the better game to use it and you start to being pressure to use it before the season ends, and you spend it in a shit way.
So is more a luck thing. Wildcard and other yes you can prevent or know where and when to use because of injuries or international breaks.
It doesn't really matter when you play the chips, it only matters how much points you get from them.

I like to use the chips later to give me that boost in points close to the end. I feel best playing from behind and attacking the points. Last season I was leading most of the time and I hated it, instead of taking inspired choices you always go for template to secure the lead and that is boring. Finishing first half of the season 50 points from the top with all the chips is the goal for me.

Nice job on saving 4 free transfers,that took a lot of risk. Hopefully it didnt cost you much i think i will do the same for next couple of rounds and gather those transfers because i took a wild card 2 weeks ago so sitting now on 2 free transfer but still no need to use any. Also icopress can you slow down a little already 100 points away from me,you arent making this league intresting for us
I wildcarded, that helped a bit. It did cost me, I'm far away from the top but I would have made the same choices in retrospective - I'm not getting any breaks anywhere.
I like how my team will be set up for the future after using a few transfers, 100 points is a huge gap but as Trofo said - we're just getting started.
Well i used up triple captain and wild card so used two tokens already and i think that might be a problem for the future. For my team im also satisfied and will just keep up saving the transfers so i can do some big changes in the future that might make a difference. Hope he is right because we will need some big points to get back into the game.

[...] It is still very early and there is no point even checking ranking before half season. 100 points in GW 30 would be a problem, 100 points at this stage with most of the chips intact are a nice lead but nowhere near game over for the chasing pack.
That's true. Last week I was 75 points ahead. Now it's down to 35.Its one truth that breeds a mindset, a mindset that could get you so relaxed that you wouldn’t realize when things change and your catch up game might not be it no more. What’s there to note as well, those ahead will always do there most to keep there game and as such, your just left chasing right behind except some magic chip bails you out.

No one in the top five has Palmer so I'll be hoping he'll be a difference maker for me. However, I don't have Mbeumo and with Brentford's excellent schedule I see that as a problem (I'm also worried about Solanke and Wood).
Both players @Mbeumo and Wood made a difference for me last GW, they are an excellent choice from the way I see it and they both are capable of producing something in a game where there team pose some threat to the opposition.

Some interesting options are appearing - a few players I've got my eyes on that not many people have. Tough schedules incoming for most of the top teams, let's see how we manage this interesting period.
I'm sitting on 4 free transfers, a mini revamp of my team is needed and I am just waiting for the international break to finish not to risk any injuries.
