I will almost certainly start the next GW without Salah, Palmer and Saka. So much money in the bank.. Grin
Was looking to get rid of Saka temporarily for Salah but, my money in the bank wouldn’t give way. I was wondering whom it was that your looking to get in but, had to seek out some player of my own too and get some point deduction in the end, hope am compensated for that decision though, I guess I’ll find out soon.
Would have liked to see some more of my Arsenal assets out, like Raya, his been pretty average of late for a £5.7 on his head could have use of that money some place else.

I should have transferred Saka out before last GW, he didn't play in the CL and Arsenal is facing Liverpool next.
There is 1 player I like to replace him, not Palmer though. Just need a bit more research, not many people have him at this point in time.

Actually, I do. You have 50 points from last GW to show for it, and apart from GW 7, you have scored more than 50 points every other GW, which should excite you. If no one has told you, I am telling you that you are doing really well.

I especially think I need to transfer Palmer.
Chelsea have tough fixtures coming up for the next three GW's; Palmer is a doubt to have peak performance in all those games. You can still make the gamble, though.

Scoring an average of 50 points is really nice, but Saka's serious injury makes me think that I need to make some changes. You're right about Chelsea's fixtures, so maybe I should consider another player instead of Palmer. I guess I'll need to do some intensive research for my fantasy team this week.

You still have four free transfers that you could use to make little changes; I don't think you need to use your WC chip considering how good your team looks.

I think that at this stage, the free transfers I have are more valuable than the WC chip. Do you really think my team is good? Looking at the squad, there aren't many players that excite me.

GW8 winner is Woodie. Congrats man.
It was one point in front of our second placed team, courtesy of Salah captain and Gvardiol in the team.

Free bet coming your way.
Phew this was a tough one!
When I looked at the log and my closet rival of the game week was just a few points behind, I noticed a 50 points was trailing me and the FPL manager had Chris Wood  to play against Palace Roll Eyes I knew this guy would pull a fast one and boy did he strike that ball to get on the scoresheet Grin...just glad that he didn't score "maximum" bonus points as this would have turned out to be B1's gameweek...better luck next mate.

Frankly, I think your team is in perfect order (I wouldn't use WC).  Tongue

I will ignore your comment because I have a sidebet with you. I am very sorry but I think I definitely need to change something in my team Cheesy

It's official I'm done with Eze for the rest of the season, what he likes could go on to do now for all I care, dude has been a complete headache, and I've lost 0.3m of budget already by having that clown in my team  Angry
I got rid of him since the very time I noticed that he was unserious in games. I am surprised you have had him up until now. Eze is no good to me, I was lucky in one of the GW's where I still had him and he scored. Since then, nothing good.

I really was going to, but at first I didn’t have any free transfer to spare and getting him for a minus 4 when he’s fit seem like an unwise decision so I kept him in with finger crossed hoping he’d get a few points more before I drop him, but here we are 😒

Wood with another return  Wink

I said at the start of the season that I won't be taking anybody from Palace - they are a bad team.
Eze might still turn it around and start getting the points, but there are better and cheaper options available so I'm not even thinking about him.

Palace will be interesting from GW21 onwards, let's see how they will look like then.

Now, I could really careless about what he does from any week this season, Lol.

Bad thing for me again, I kept Wood on the bench Cry  That would have been +7 points for me.

Tough day at the office for Crystal Palace , and if they continue on this road...this is most likely going to hurt players form and confidence and before you know it these guys will be blanking again...the likes of Eze need to fight harder especially that these are the lads acting as the face of the team.

And with players like mateta starting from the bench,  this fixture away from home was never favoring them against a stubborn Nottingham forest that that was ready to throw everything they had at them...Chris Wood nothing to say but congrats 👏

Haaland can score from nowhere to me; he needs very few chances and touches on the ball to score even in games where he is well shadowed. Wolves did a good job to make sure he did not have any meaningful opportunity.

Not talking about his finishing abilities, I'm talking about him creating chances out of nothing and scoring without anyone putting it on the plate for him. He struggles everytime KDB is not on the team. This is common knowledge.
True though, perhaps the reason it will be the reason he will not be able to win the Ballon d'Or is because he is not influential in games without assistance. I will still keep him though; I believe his goal drought will not last for long. Kevin De Bruyne had an expected return date for the fixture against Wolves; he was not in the line-up. which means he could be very close to returning, and Pep just wanted to play it safe against Wolves, not seeing that game as too important for him to risk him.

Because of being busy with my work, i couldn't find a chance to take care of my fantasy team but i'm still happy as my team got more points than the average. I'm thinking of using wildcard next week.Do you think it is the right time? I especially want to add Palmer to my squad.His absence harmed me very much.

I see and check and a lot of us score more points from the subs than the actual starters hahaha.

I dont know why some players dont play at all and they dont make any news about that, in this case i ended up taking good points from my subs, but i also play with one less player thanks to Saka, Konsa (he left the last game for an injury but in fantasy seems like he was gonna play) and walker dont playing.

Are we gradually nearing when Haaland would be the most sold player for a game week, or it’s the captain armband that should heavily changing soon ?
The moment you sell Haaland, that is when he will start scoring. Manchester City were lucky today; Wolves deserved at least a point for their effort.

Ain't that right! I couldn't agree more, and it literally takes him 1 or 2 good games to always make up for lost points, and looking at how easier City games looks, have him is a no brainer.

Anyone else has a bad week? From what i see in this round an avg point is around 20 points. Just awful i dont have a single player with a goal or assist i think its just impossible. Not even a single clean sheet and as expected Saka did not play

Yeah I knew it would be a poor week with Konsa and Saka unlikely to play (hamstrings are not 75% chance as FPL predicted, as cryptofrka also notes, they're a lot riskier to start as aggravation is almost certain) -- but I got lucky with Salah goal + assist and full bonus points as captain. Another week where I got the captaincy right (Saka being my previous one) -- so I'm keeping in touch with the top 10 just by picking the right captain!

What a weird game week. Was a bad choice to sell Salah, the guy always punishes me when I do it.
Not sure what to do with Foden - he'll probably start the CL game. I want to have him - but as Harko said, not the smartest thing to have him if he won't be playing week in week out.

Not much gained or lost as it stands now - so back to the drawing board. I need to start catching up on icopress though.

I didn't know you sold Salah, until I checked and wondered why you weren't above me (given your amazing performance pre-Liverpool). It's crazy we're doing all we can and still can't break the top 5. I was half a moment away from using my free transfer for Gvardiol but I thought I was going to fall victim to overhype.

Arsenal’s next 3 fixtures; Liverpool, Newcastle, Chelsea.
Chelsea next 3 fixtures; Chelsea, Man United, Arsenal 🤔
Liverpool has Arsenal, Brighton and Aston Vila, so I guess I'm going to have to stick with my Mo' Salah most likely for a really long time, he's proving to be a worthy asset..

Are you sure? There's still the tempting Bournemouth fixture after that.  Wink

Yes, if he shits me out against a weak Southampton, I would have no stomach to captain him against a tricky Bounemouth team.

Could this be something to look out for after the international breaks? I mean how could all teams seem to do so badly and once again, Haaland blanked! It wouldn’t have even mattered should I have picked Palmer for Captaincy, he was up for the same points as Haaland, Saka didn’t feature and that summed up the GW for me.

@Igebotz, I suppose you got those points you mentioned, another red arrow for me, so below average in this round and that’s not what I hoped to see.
Woods have got to give me something by the morrow, I’ll be looking forward to it when they play Crystal Palace.

I've had enough of him, but he's not causing me any serious headaches since more than half of the pool have him.
Hhampuz is doing very well without Haaland in his team; I like how his team has been put together.

The midfield isn't providing much; nothing gets through to him, and he's not the kind to score out of nowhere;

One last dance against Southampton, and that's it.
