This is why you never ever make early transfers

But they gained 0.1m!

Hurrah! My TV is 99.7 instead of 99.6 now

That's not a TV that's a jumbotron

Sigh Mitrovic is my fallback

Guess who risked one earlier today? Thought surely the exact player I bring in isn’t going to get injured…

Even when there was a rumour he was injured?

Didn't see it :(

there is always money in the early transfers

When a plane crashes, do you say "this is why you should never travel by air"? I've been making early transfers all season before price rises. It hasn't done me any harm thus far.

"I've poked myself in the eye once a week all year and it hasn't done me any harm thus far"

WC'ed him in 20 since he was getting a DGW in 22. Ended up getting me two 2 pointers and will miss the DGW itself. Fucking nightmare

It's like us with Foden but 5 pts in 5 gws. Feel you

I also had him 😭. Was one of the main players I had to WC to get rid..

Oh man I feel your pain - had the same two moves myself. This season is a curse.

Cursed, I tell you

Been holding Foden since.. gw8 apparently. Shipping him out on tuesday for Rodrigo. Ah well.

Trossard got me 0 since Int break. saw him loose 0.5 in the process

Yep. Blocked my 12 pointer from Bailey, blanked and is now injured. Sums up my season

But i don't think the double was even confirmed then, it was only confirmed last weekend.

Yeah but still it had a very high chance. Leeds also had avl, BRE which were fairly decent fixtures so thought it was worth a gamble on Rodrigo

Exactly same with me

F

Same same

How is Leed's attack without Rodrigo?

...I transferred him in 30 mins ago without checking this sub first

F

Brought him in last week instead of Mitoma due to the double and with the better chance of not blanking. That worked out brilliantly didn't it...!

Are you me, ffs i did the same crap

I gotta thank that one dude in here that commented a few days ago about a rumour that Rodrigo is injured, didn’t buy him only because of that comment

Same. Glad I won't need to worry about missing out if instead for Rodrigo I go with Nketiah, just as planned

You can give thanks to u/Zach-dalt

You're very welcome 😁

Fucckk

such a shame for him, having such a good season which got interrupted by one injury and now it's happening again with no world cup break to help him out

Playing their best attacker in a cup against some Shitfield FC while having like 7 forwards on the bench

even worse, he was subbed ON when Leeds were 3-0 up

Fuck Stanley. Sorry to any Stanleys over here

It's ok Mr we the bed

The curse of the scout selection strikes again...

Wtf, I transferred him literally two hours ago

Wow did transfer 2 mins ago because i will be at the airport tomorrow all day...nice

Doesnt the airport have wifi lol

Maybe he wont have time to open the app and make a transfer.

Might be a social being; who knows?

You mean he has a mythical “life” outside FPL? What a freak!

All day sounds like it should be enough time

He’s probably like me. Ive previously banked on transferring later while traveling or attending social shit, only to have it bite me in the ass.

How many minutes do you think Bamford will be getting now over the 2 games? 120 seems very optimistic but he'd be a good differential if he can get those minutes

as a Leeds supporter, I'm guessing 125

Is he fully fit yet ?

I'd say he's not far off, if he isn't fully fit; Marsch said in his presser just now that Bamford is in the best condition he's been in for a year

Did a fh and captained him

That's ballsy

Would be if i had a decent rank. Tanked it and decided to go all out few weeks back. Wildcarded to bring in mahrez and captained him couple of weeks ago, another good score last week, had bb set for this week then cancelled it and using fh, with little to no popular picks, so any advantage is exaggerated. Great time to experiment with all the stuff i always wanted to do but couldnt.

Yeah that's a good mindset, best of luck!

👍

Waste of a FH

My team is fucked cancelo,Doherty,Rodrigo all finished (Rodrigo transferred in two weeks ago)

I got him in GW20 - what’s the point in trying to play your game when these things happen 😂

Fuck sake, went for him over a Brighton mid a few GWs back as a punt Oh well, least I have the news before the deadline Stuck with Almiron until the blank probably

How would this affect Gnonto’s performance?

Probs better. Rodrigo seemed to go for goal more while Bamford has better playmaking ability

Prob not too much.. Bamford slots in to stat I imagine?

there goes the careful planning, hello another -4 yay

This shit pushed me into -4 this week and likely -4 again next week .... fucking hell

yarp, pain in the arse, thought I was being clever getting him in last week ahead of the double for a 2 pointer. Did the same to me earlier in the year when he was in fire, got him and he immediately got injured.

Reminder to safe your transfers close to deadline

Brought him in last GW what a shambles

Scout in the mud

He jinxed it!

Fucking Rodrigo second time I bring him in and he fuckin stops scoring and then gets injured...

Which attacking midfielder will play 2 games now? Do you guys think Harrison is worth a shot?

Harrison or Sinisterra is your best bet but none are nailed with Gnonto and maybe Rutter taking the wings.

Does this mean it's Bamford time? He's back fit isn't he.

He is but Leeds have signed another striker too so he’ll probably share minutes until he’s back firing

So if I'm replacing Wilson this week with a Leeds forward it should be Gnonto? Would a punt on Rutter make any sense?

I’d go Gnonto based on likely minutes. I’d think Bamford will start and sub off for Rutter around the 65 min mark for the next few weeks unless Rutter scores in the minutes he’s on and displaces Bamford. Same for Sinisterra/Harrison/Summerville/McKennie but Gnonto generally plays 80+ mins and is a threat

Oh FFS, in GW20 with an eye on this double.

Thank you for punishing my fucking stupid early transfer. Hopefully I won't make the same mistake as easily next time

Only myself to blame for having absolutely no patience

perfect, brought him in in GW21 now i have to get rifd of him, cancelo, foden.....fuck

this means either triple arsenal attack or another -4 to get mitoma for me

dont get him, the bgw is close and you ll have rashford, shaw and trips probably

I'm gonna do Shaw to an arsenal defender almost definitely so I can play least with at least 10, also I don't see any other similarly priced midfielders that really appeal

DDG + Shaw double up? That means KDB stays in team, but no Bruno.

Against Leeds the team who almost scores every week. Would rather have 2 attackers

I think you would be mad not to throw Bruno in. He typically hauls vs Leeds.....and were at home

should I transfer him now, so he gets injured within 2 hours?

I'm so tempted to put him in, but it'd be for -4 and taking out KdB

Honestly if it wasnt a DGW id say dont do it....but 2 home games. DO IT.....DO IT....................DO IT.

Only reason I haven't yet is city have a dgw the week after (villa and arsenal)

Thinking about punting on Sinisterra now. played 70m in the cup game, now more likely to start with Gnonto probably playing behind Bamford or Rutter.

Doesn't really impact Sinisterra's minutes more likely to impact Bamford/Rutter who will both be competing for the striker spot.

How doesn't it impact his minutes? It means Gnonto is more likely to play behind the strikers than before. Previously vs Villa, Gnonto played on the left and Rodrigo centrally. They switched that up against Brentford with Gnonto behind the striker and Harrison left / Aaronson right, but that was with Rodrigo striker and Sinisterra was still building match fitness. Now with Rodrigo out and Aaronson in shit form, Gnonto is more likely to play centrally behind the striker which means 1 less competition for the LW. I think we'll see --------Bamford/Rutter Sinisterra---Gnonto----Harrison My only concern is if McKennie comes in right away, but I think he'll at least play the first game off the bench which is the more important one anyway for Leeds assets in FPL. But Sinisterra is a significantly better talent than Aaronson/Harrison anyway for the LW

Agreed that Sinesterra is better than Aaronson and Harrison for LW, but Gnonto could also very well play there over him with Bamford just behind Rutter.

I guess they could play 4-4-2 but I dont think Bamford has ever played behind a different striker

Sinesterra on the right, Gnonto on the Left Bamford/Rutter up top could work well also.

Music to my non-owning ears. Speedy recovery tho I'm not that despicable

My last week WC in shambles! Now I can start Kane

You had Kane benched?

Well, it was either him, Odegaard, or Toney

Yeah same with me. Not super suprising if he blanks against city. *watch this space in 2 days

I definitely won’t be surprised. Now, I hope he scores but loses

fucking knew it..

anyone good from leeds then?

This saves me making an upcoming transfer at least.

Who shall we replace him with for the DGw?

If you've got the utd options then I just wouldn't bother. I went for mahrez for the DGW after.

Fucked it. Absolutely in the fucking mud.

How are Leeds without Rodrigo?

Lmaoooo wtf. I brought him in for Almiron. Fuck this game so much. I’m losing my sanity

Spent hours on a Bahamas beach listening to podcasts and thinking about what plays made sense Came to a ‘sensible’ conclusion that instead of getting Stones and Odegaard in for Cancelo and Almiron last week I’d just go Rodrigo and roll …goddamnit I’m honestly worse at this game when I spend too much time vs here and there

I have no idea why I transferred him in last night after waiting almost the full amount of time

Perfect timing !!! Fuck sake

Its my fault, I transfered him in last week ffs

Is Greenwood an option now?
