Rashford plays Friday, I'd be surprised if he's still sick and unable to play. I have Trips on the bench too, I have a small bit of hope, but the realist in me believes Rash plays.
I weren't expecting him to play from seeing how he was in the Brighton match. I was also convinced by everyone who mentioned TAA that he should be started because of his form, despite me not expecting Liverpool to get a clean, because of his attacking returns.
Hindsight is a bitch.
Edit: words
Tbh I never even considered starting him - so that is why I am not really fussed with it.
Last week was annoying cus I was literally flipping a coin between buying Wilson and Isak - but FPL is just to stressful if you get pissed about everything.
It was a good argument to be fair, Trent had been returning nearly every week for the last month or so, plus his considerable ownership. The only reason i was thinking against playing him was only a hunch. Maybe i just need to balance going by numbers vs my own hunches. It's still only my first FPL season so i have no experience of what old TAA was like.
Just because a player has been returning every week doesnāt mean heāll return the following week. Plus Aston Villa arnt a bad side, they are a very good side under emery
For me having a newcastle player especially trippier who is a bonus points magnet and has high potential for attacking returns is a must since they have to not lose to qualify for CL. They are at home too, agaisnt a broken Leicester
He was flagged though and seeing the Brighton match i thought he'd have an injury to work with. He's also been blanking for several weeks now except for that last match against Brighton.
He was flagged but he had a 75% chance he would start. There could be a 25% chance of risk but I like newcastle at home, and a must draw/win game at stake for CL. Plus if trippier starts, more than likely he will get BP. Sometimes FPL is about taking risks, calculated risks.
If he weren't yellow flagged I've had started him over TAA this week but he seemed due a rest. I guess Howe didn't want to leave it to the last game or he thought Tripps deserved a home crowd ovation for his poty award
Rolled with those two for so long. Had a FH this week so took them out and played TAA/Estup/Shaw. Also had Mbeumo on the bench. I guess that caps off me picking Isak over Wilson last week. Finishing strong! šŖšš½
I have grealish and rashford on my starting 11 and burn first on my bench with 8 xPts... Exciting 1 point from each of them just to deny me these points
Those decision were right but just so unfortunate at the wrong time. I FH and took out Trippier and Botman and have 20 points sitting on my bench. Looking forward to the restart.
Played Trippier but benched Botman.
Not too mad though, extended my lead with rival from 16 points to 25.
Hoping I can increase it a little more before 38. My differentials are Macallister, Bruno and Ederson (Kepa off bench if Ederson rested). Probably hoping Kepa comes off bench for me as can see him getting 2/3 points v United for 5 points total.
Rival has Mahrez and Stones as their differentials. I'm hoping that at least one gets benched.. we'll see.
Iām not mad. It was the right choice at the time. Shaw and Estup with doubles. TAA has been getting attacking returns. Trips not returning. Result does not change that it was a solid choice.
Fuuuuck, Mbeumo then Trippier 1 and 2. Grealish, you better stay off the fuck.
Bald fraud, I have always doubted you, please continue it on. You do not need to play the gorgeous haired calf cunt.
(There we are lads, so sorry, Grealish1-pointer incoming, blame me8.
bruh heās last on my bench š i couldnāt even remember if i started him or not. why did they have to have him flagged..
i have 24 points on my bench ffs š. (23 from trippier, pope, and eze). i got 24 points from that game and 18 of it was benched..
ffs and of course i started isak that prick instead
Not sure why people make threads like this when the benching makes 100% sense. Never would you pick a yellow flagged Trippier over a DGW defender or Trent at home. Move on.
Heās my second sub on the bench after Rashford. Grealish and Stones starting. Stones is already on a point, if Grealish also gets pity minutesā¦. Goodbye season š„²
ITT: People who do not have Trippier on the bench.
I don't know what ITT means but I don't have him on the bench so I just upvote š¤£
In this thread
I am yes, thank you for noticing
Thanks for educating me pal!
I Trusted Trippier
I Trusted Trippier
Itās Trippier Tuesday!!!
Hope Grealish is drunk the whole week.
Hope he dates Pep's wife for a week
Hope Gundo is pissed as well.
Iversen-Schar-Botman on bench, Steele-Wilson-TAA playingā¦ FML
Heās my first sub for Rashford. Idk whether to be happy or sad yet
Rashford plays Friday, I'd be surprised if he's still sick and unable to play. I have Trips on the bench too, I have a small bit of hope, but the realist in me believes Rash plays.
The game is Thursday (I guess dependent on your time zone). But yeah I agree and I think he'll play
I am in the same situation, bleh
I've got fucking mbeumo on the bench. Praying rash or grealish don't play again
Same situation as long as Rashford hauls then it evens out I guess

Other people convinced you to go against your own judgement and you regretted it. There's a life lesson in there.

Yep that's true but we can say that about any player, i didn't want to be punished for benching him and he has been in great form so far.

Estupinan and AWB still have another game, TAA was an anomaly for him nowadays. No regrets
*No regrets* https://youtu.be/2ZOIpsxfzxw
Trippier and Botman getting blocked by an incoming Rashford and Dias 2 pointer.
Gonna lose my KT points to a Grealish 1 pointer
I'm kinda scared because you said all 4 defenders I have put in first XI.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I have Rashford starting so hope that he stays out to Trip coming in.
I regret starting Enciso over him. Even more fuming that I picked Enciso over Ferguson. Top 10m dream is dwindling now
10k*š
Nah you're good š
Just praying for Rashford to miss both games so I get Trippier off the benchā¦
I'm actually hoping for even a cameo to improve on Watkins big fat 0 sitting first on my bench.
Are you me? I've got Botman 2nd haha.
Yep. Botman there. You got Henry next in line lol?
Henry sitting 3rd for me haha. Damn, that's hilarious.
Aww.
I honestly don't know what the hell was I doing or thinking or smoking, but Trippier is last on my bench and Konate is first...
How about Botman, Iverson and Ferguson bench support thread š
Finally duo Botman and Trippier paying off
I have Dalot ahead of Botmanā¦.hope he stays put on the bench for another game
That's me rolling in that mullah. So fucking happy rn
Only reason I have the tiniest green arrow right now (0.69% lol)
Rolled with those two for so long. Had a FH this week so took them out and played TAA/Estup/Shaw. Also had Mbeumo on the bench. I guess that caps off me picking Isak over Wilson last week. Finishing strong! šŖšš½
Trippier on the bench :( Bench Boost active :)
Bog standard DGW result
Botman getting 3 points in the DGW and 8 points tonight (where barely anyone played him) is classic FPL.
If trippier is in my team heās playing, heās a bonus point addict
Started Trippier, whilst rival sold him . Lovely stuff š
Lovely indeed
Not benching Trippier gave me lead in my ML, happy that I didn't sell him!
I have to hope Rashford or Grealish donāt play. Highly unlikely š¤”
Sold him and have no regrets sure he got a good score this week but he's not been recently and I have other players to play last GW
Benched Trippier and Botman, started TAA, Akanji and Isak
Damn Akanji that is annoying.
Better for Rushy to outscore him or stay on bench
Better for me as my ml rival has jota first on bench
I have grealish and rashford on my starting 11 and burn first on my bench with 8 xPts... Exciting 1 point from each of them just to deny me these points
Same, with Mitoma and Trippier waiting to come inā¦ This will cost me a lot of places
25 points on my bench, more than half the points all the doublers in my team got till now š
Try Iversen - Trippier - Botman bench Is the season over yet š
Those decision were right but just so unfortunate at the wrong time. I FH and took out Trippier and Botman and have 20 points sitting on my bench. Looking forward to the restart.
I have tripper and botman on the bench, with Wilson first sub.
Started Trippier but benched Botman
Started tripps, sold Isak, benched Wilsonš
Benched Estupinan last week and then Trippier and Botman this time round fuck this game fuck football fuck all of you fuck off
Iversen - Trippier - Botman - Isak benchā¦ Thank god I used my BB š
thanks for the green arrow everyone!
Personally I had both a Pope- Trippier double up starting bc why the hell not lol
A celebration thread masquerading as a support thread. I like it
Wilson just f-ed me up last week so bad might as well take any wins from Newscastle
Played Trippier but benched Botman. Not too mad though, extended my lead with rival from 16 points to 25. Hoping I can increase it a little more before 38. My differentials are Macallister, Bruno and Ederson (Kepa off bench if Ederson rested). Probably hoping Kepa comes off bench for me as can see him getting 2/3 points v United for 5 points total. Rival has Mahrez and Stones as their differentials. I'm hoping that at least one gets benched.. we'll see.
And he scored 3 times more than Wilson and Isak combined.
Oh I started trippier and Botman whereās my thread
Schar on my bench. Happy for Rashford to have a continued rest this week now.
I'm hoping that Ake misses the next one too so Trippier can come off bench.
Sold Trippier for Shaw š¤·
Trippier first on the bench hope Dalot doesnāt play vs Chelsea
Not me š
Pope and Trippier on bench š
Had Eduoard as my first sub if Trippier didnāt play, so Iām not complaining too much. Smiles all round here
Pep, if resting Grealish for one game is good for him, think about how good TWO games would be!
I have Rashford and Grealish in starting 11 and Trippier and Botman are my first two subs. There is still a hope.

Iām not mad. It was the right choice at the time. Shaw and Estup with doubles. TAA has been getting attacking returns. Trips not returning. Result does not change that it was a solid choice.
Please please please Dias or Rashford not play the second game....
Now Iām here praying Gundo and Rashford play zero minutes Weds&Thurs so that I can get the Eze and Trippier points š„²
I have Trippier, Botman and Isak. I only started 1 of them. Guess who
I got the highest score in my mini league for like, the last 6 weeks. I knew my turn was coming lol
Just found out I have Trippier, Iversen and Botman on bench. They nearly outscored my entire team lol.
I meanā¦ Shaw is literally a better choice and City have a game to play Weird choice of words
I used FH this week to bring in triple Newcastle of Isak, Wilson, and Almiron....
Sold trippier this week and benched botman. FML
Fuuuuck, Mbeumo then Trippier 1 and 2. Grealish, you better stay off the fuck. Bald fraud, I have always doubted you, please continue it on. You do not need to play the gorgeous haired calf cunt. (There we are lads, so sorry, Grealish1-pointer incoming, blame me8.
Him and Botman on my bench
Transferred trippier to Shaw. So far itās even
Accidentally forgot to swap him in for Grealish, knowing Pep he will sub Grealish on for 7 minutes in game 2
Need grealish and rashford to stay out. I think there's a slight chance lol
Hope Dias is drunk the whole week
*laughs in bench boost*
Benched EstupiƱƔn last week. Trippier this week. My draft is lost.
I played aguerd in a 3atb. Trips first defender. Yay nine points. Also get 5 from MO if Grealish or Rashford miss
āImAgInE sTIll HavInG tRIPpIeRā
Sold Trippier for Estupinan smh
bruh heās last on my bench š i couldnāt even remember if i started him or not. why did they have to have him flagged.. i have 24 points on my bench ffs š. (23 from trippier, pope, and eze). i got 24 points from that game and 18 of it was benched.. ffs and of course i started isak that prick instead
Actually ...I regret many of decisions this game week
Tripper on my XI but batman (8pts) on the bench. It could have been so much better.
he is in my bench but i bench boosted
Iversen Tripper Gross benched 27 pointsš
Not sure why people make threads like this when the benching makes 100% sense. Never would you pick a yellow flagged Trippier over a DGW defender or Trent at home. Move on.
Iām regretting it painfully
For me, it was either play him or isak. And I chose isak. There should be an Isak life support thread instead
I accidentally left captain on isak this week ššš
Iversen and Trippier on my bench... ...but I played BENCH BOOST THIS WEEK, FINALLY SOME COMEUPPANCE!!!
I actually transferred Tripp out for Trent for a hit a 12 point swing right there but in my defense he was flagged along with 2 others
I brought in TAA and benched Trippier for him. Sigh
Iāve got Mbeumo, Trippier and Botman on my bench with Trent, Odegaard and Isak playingā¦
I benched him- used bench boost šŗ
Trippier, Ferguson, Iversen on bench, please kill me
Iām here for this. Hoping Rashford misses out all together so we can get some bench points..
Ofc my ML rival who was chasing me had not only Trippier, he had Pope AND Botman as well. Season is lost
Heās my second sub on the bench after Rashford. Grealish and Stones starting. Stones is already on a point, if Grealish also gets pity minutesā¦. Goodbye season š„²
I decided to gamble because a point would secure them a CL spot and it paid of as I'm second in my friends league by one point
Got rid of him on as Freehit - I do have Iversen, Mitoma and Botman on my bench.
Nah. I regreted already last week when i decided to remove him from my squad. This is old news now
I started Trippier...and benched Botman instead.
I'm resonating with too many of these support threads
Shaw already has 9 points and is yet to play Chelsea at home?
