About 5 players now have an injury scare for Chelsea, including our most beloved Palmer, Chelsea is supposed to face Wolves, and I was considering having him or Isak for my captain this week... I guess I might just skip him and stick with Salah yet again.

I dont know what is happening. How can all of those players be injured at the same time or not play. I got Colwill,Enzo and Palmer and all three might not play. I honestly dont know what to do. Got 3 subs that are okay to replace them but still this might be a huge hit for me if all three dont play. Plus i got only one transfer so cant change all three.

@NotATether: Same here! Isak and Salah actually really whispered to me, and this was over a week ago! Have to take my hat off to el che... captaining Isak was actually on the brink of my mind, but I'm right now, until the winds change, am firmly a Salah captainer no matter what. What is your graph about, I don't understand it =p Expected points?

That second pictures from the official FPL site. On the left you've got the Gameweek score, your total score, your OR, and your scores for the past couple of gameweeks. On the right are some numbers I'm not really interested in Tongue

I have this extension https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/bplgdnfjlmbnjpibjogpoabahffibepk "FPL Tools", and it mods the website to show some more data.

Finally leadfrog one Mafia, the second one is right in front of me, I'm sure gonna leadfrog him too. I preached about Amad day and night on this thread, kept him against all odds, today I'm eating good. First team of the week award. Grin

You are lucky that I did not captain Isak because if I did, that award would have been going to me Wink

Difference is Sulemana came for YouTube Comps while Amad came to win a game.

Sulemana should have been the MOTM, but Amad stole the show with that performance. As soon as Amad scored the third goal, I had to rush to see your team because I know you strongly campaigned for Amad a few weeks ago. Good to see you believed your choice and stuck with him.

It has been a really good GW for you, also escaping the Salah captaincy boat.

Amad believers

I actually did Mbeumo for Amad yesterday after the Brentford game had ended, he's been an option for me in the past 2 game weeks for me, but the lack of free transfers was what hindered me until the game week and closed, while I wanted Amad, doing Mbeumo to Amad for an extra -4 points was a no for even though Brentford was to play Man City and Man United playing the worse team in the league.

I'm more pained that 3 Man United goals and zero contribution from Bruno Fernandes, but I can't complain since he somehow got 2 bonus points.

I prayed aswell he was my last player of the round and he did perfect!!! Three goals from him plus 3 bonus points to save my week and give me 74 points in total. Palmer Isak and Amad carried my team fully. If other players did at least small things could have ended up with a lot more. Still happy with this week!! Amad carrying Man Utd alone.

Amad believers, I have another hidden Gem!! All I needed was Jackson to at least score from those sitters.

Joa Pedro to Wood is inevitable at this point - Nott fixtures looks great and he's already in the golden ball limbo.

When the team is Southampton, you just can’t complain. The question is, why in the last 10minutes plus added time. I mean, these guys worked really hard to keep the lead they had from that Manuel Ugarte OG, Ramsdale doing his most to make good saves and Sulemana became such a nightmare for anything that moved down the left flank. They were terrific with swift accurate passes, interceptions and all. Suddenly, they lost it with just minutes on the clock and what a come back it was! I didn’t expect, never would have thought of it.

So, Joao Pedro is fit enough to start the game today, that means no auto-sub for those counting on it for Wood and myself who would have been expecting those 6 points scored by Rogers… I guess at the same time there should be nothing stopping Joao Pedro from providing a similar, if not more returns right ?

It all came down to nothing, didn’t get a goal but found a way to get a yellow card. One point in all, not the result I would have hoped for. Although, he had a great chance at goal with that quick first touch mid into the second half and a swing with his left foot. The goalkeeper was just swift to keep the ball out.

Amad on the other hand, Amad completely destroyed Southampton. Dude is just good at scoring important goals and when it does matter. Explain to me how his getting a hat-trick from a loosing side in just 10minutes and additional time!

I wanted to captain Isak but decided against it since he was rumored to had a knock or some minor fitness issues. I expected him to start but I also expected him to play just about 60 minutes. At least I captained Palmer instead of Salah. Ended up a good round for me even though I went -8 points once again. I think I made more transfers this season so far than in whole previous season.

I am so pained by it, especially now that he has gone on to pick up a yellow card and even subbed off.

I think Joao Pedro played better when he was playing behind Welbeck from the midfield or alongside him.

During several matches Isak always scored goals but somehow the Captain had to stay on Salah because this player could also score goals at any time, but after thinking again it turns out that Isak is much better, right? Maybe next week will think about Isak, for Palmer he seems to be starting to decline but it's a shame if he has to be removed from the squad.

Well 4 player in top 10 of our fantasy league captained Palmer and the rest i think Salah. I had Mbeumo as well and i cannot believe in both of their two goals he didnt contribute anything. Everyone else in my team besides Palmer were really bad. Could have gotten a lot more points now hoping Murphy and Isak do something

Good on them, and all the top four actually still got Joao Pedro at least in play, so they will strengthen their positions. I gambled on Cunha but Wolves were a tad bit unlucky last night.

The nice thing about having a strong bench is that you can do thing like this for next week:

You can also roll all your transfers, get a good bench boost score, and in my case even put some money aside for the Assistant Manager.

Can you believe I was debating between Isak and Salah captain? Although Palmer will never be captain material this season.

Gentlemen, I present to you the race for 10th place, where 12 points separate 15th and 11th:

I said it the last time that Semenyo could be a good grab, I guess it's time to cash in temporarily on my Mbeumo investment, and good for other alternative to make way for extra funds for the assistant manager, I think it might be time for a Joao Pedro/Nicolas Jackson alternative as well.

Undoubtedly an important edition to Bournemouth team and he made that count yesterday with an assist and a goal. I wasn’t having it mehn, didn’t want to see that but I did. Still, I don’t see him to be doing more than Mbeumo. I don’t no what to weigh of him @Mbeumo in there weekend fixture against Liverpool but, he’s still a good asset to keep.

I thought this week was going to be Jackson’s week and was questioning myself on how I kicked him out early without getting nothing off his investment but to my amazement, he didn’t do more than 4 points. For Joao P, he’s still got things together.

You keep on making bad decisions,i still dont know you could replace Isak against Wolves that is really bad,probobly one of those decisions that will cost you badly around 15 points. But still your defence and some midfield players pushed you up and still you had a solid round in the end. But still the Isak transfer costed you big points

I did that transfer 4 rounds ago - Isak had Villa, United and Spurs coming. Still outscored Haaland who had Everton, Leicester, WHU and Brentford by more than 10 points.
Haaland plays against Ipswich and then he's gone. Wood costs less than half and is equal on points, Cunha as well. If we use the price per point formula, Haaland is probably in the bottom half of the table.

The decision to go with Haaland instead of Isak will be my doom.

To be honest, I'm mostly trying to play against icopress at this point in time already due to our sidebet.
I was afraid that him captaining Haaland in these 5 games (Everton, Leicester, WHU, Brentford and Ipswich) could be the difference between us, so I reshuffled.

Proved to be a terrible choice, but at least this time defence came to the rescue and brought me unexpected points.
If I hadn't fucked it up with captains again, could have been a decent round. Considering how it started, I'll take this result with a smile on my face.

Heung-Min Son lucky lad with that big deflection of a goal, because looking at some of the past games, I didn't not see Tottenham assets performing today and then Arsenal keeping chocking when the get into the final third and am now worried that these guys won't get a goal back and perhaps win the game...but long way to go let's see how the second half goes as the 1st concludes.

All my defenders flopped; I was about to celebrate Gabriel's goal at least, but it was awarded as an own goal.

I can't say I expected a clean sheet in this game. But we ended up winning the game, but I was not still impressed with our finishing because we created enough chances to win that game with more than two goals. We should be scoring more goals as a team that wants to win the title.

Arteta should plan to fix this mess we have in attack; we cannot continue like this.
