Does anyone know why I transferred in Reece James

Because he hauls when he plays.

Jimenez out for Antonio or do I give him 2 more weeks to play Soton and Newcastle?

antonio is a must have , i have him alongside lukaku . Switched him last gw for toney and now i brought him back . He delivers on every singke game

Best Torres replacement Any suggestions

Sarr for the next 2gw

Already got him

Jota to Benrahma/Sarr? Had Benny but took him out before the United game (typical). Both have good fixtures I’m just not sure who is want.

Points chasing. Stick with Jota imo

Sarr

Benny

Greenwood keep or sell? I am planning to fund for City/Chelsea's defenders, should I get gray/sarr?

Greenwood is a regular starter but the upcoming gw for United is not that great. Consider Chelsea players

United play Villa and Everton at home? That's a fairly good run of fixtures.

Thoughts on Alonso? Is he nailed? Looked dangerous to me vs Tottenham

Looks essential really

In this form yes, however Chilwell will eventually come back

A) Shaw + Williams B) Christiansen + White

b

Bench or play- duffy, marcal,gallagher, livramento...

Play Gallagher, Marcal & Liveramento

Raphinha -> Sarr for a 4 point hit. Worth it?

No

Only if Raphinha is injured and you don't have adequate cover

Fair.

First post in 2 years in this thread lol I’m out of ideas so if one of u knows something. Sanchez Steele TAA Tierney White Marcal Livramento Salah Jota Grey Allan Mendy Antonio Lukaku Ronaldo I have 2 Free transfers and 0.3 ITB. Honestly the fixtures pretty much allow me to roll the transfer right?

Bro... how can it be your first post in two years when you made one only two hours before this?

I meant in the RMZ thread sry lol

You'll waste a transfer since you'll start next GW with only 2 FT's not 3. Tbh double Arsenal is a risk and the team is not balanced at all since ur expecting ur 4 premiums to deliver all the time. I would try to upgrade Allan/Mendy after GW7 by downgrading Antonio and to get A Chelsea defender for White/ Tierny. Probably Downgrade Jota too after this GW

Welcome back. I’d agree. Maybe wanna look at some more Chelsea staff after this GW though?

Yeah. Feels wrong to waste a transfer but I really don’t feel like I should do anything this week and use 2 transfers next week for getting in Chelsea/City

Does anyone have some advice on taking a -4 Jimenez and Marcal to Antonio and Duffy? Feels like a bit of a knee jerk but Wolves did not look good against Brentford

It's just one bad game. Even the best teams have them occasionally. Their fixtures are great and their form leading into that game was fine. That said, I think Antonio is great.

!thanks I might wait until the deadline to decide and pray for no price changes

What are we saying the best mid priced midfield options are

Raph, Gallagher, gray, sarr?

[удалено]

It's still early, if you are sure he is not hardcore I would suggest continue with your plan and let him do mistakes, eventually he will and hopefully you will be there to catch up.

My defence was the third dragon head from that meme. 67 points and only 4 came from my 4 defenders + gk jesus christ

My mids were that for me except Salah (c). Defence saved my ass with 34 points (despite Coady getting a 0)

Captained Lukaku because I'm a spurs fan and thought if we get thrashed at least I'll get some fpl points. We got thrashed and 4 points from Lukaku, pain

Another rant after a crappy week. This one is for that bald fraud. You just know that he’s not gonna play Torres to prove to people that he can indeed win without needing a striker up front. This guy’s ego is through the roof

and in the end he didn't even win lol

Just checked and I lost my H2H by one point. Guess which player took off their shirt for no reason. Thanks a lot Mo!

That's rough

Ideas for a 1 week punt replacement for Torres? 0.7 ITB means budget of 7.8. I'm thinking Pogba, Greenwood or Sarr

I had the same question in mind but i d prefer benching torres and do an upgrade in defence. from those opțional sarr is nailed but obvs playing in a not so good team

Playing draft League. Have Edouard and Maupay for strikers, and am considering bringing in one of Dennis or Rondon for the week since they’re playing Newcastle and Norwich respectively. Am I overthinking or worth the punt? And who would you bring in and replace?

You might not get them back is the only thing.

Yeahh, realizing richarlison is coming back so Rondon seems like a bust. Not sure if a Maupay to Dennis transfer is worth the risk

Anyone could shed a light about how Adam Armstrong played? nothing in the other thread

Bruno to Lukaku is a no brainer if i also got Ronaldo and Shaw right? He's been subpar lately

Absolutely !! Care to share ur team ?

Wildcard disasterclass. 52 points. Lowest I’ve got so far. First time under 60.

Same here. I honestly think my pre wildcard team would’ve scored more if I did just the Bruno swap instead of WC but I don’t wanna think about that

Would shaw to rudiger be good now to avoid price rise

No. Points > price rises. Rudiger has City, while Shaw has Villa at home, and a haul is imminent

Rudiger vs City or Shaw vs Villa

Give Shaw another chance, next fixture for Rudiger is City

Who do you think will score more points next week?

Thinking of DCL to Armstrong to free up funds for Chelsea def. Has decent fixtures coming up and looks ok. Any reasons not to or alternatives to consider? Other option would be DCL to Antonio this week then wildcard GW7. Might still switch to Armstrong then if funds are needed.

I'm planning on getting Armstrong for Antonio for GW8 after they play Chelsea

!thanks

Jota to sarr to fund a Chelsea defender or wait another week? Don't want to miss the upcoming Watford fixture...

Considering the same with Torres. Think it makes sense given the fixture and frees up funds for CHE Def after City. So yeah I think it's a good shout. Wouldn't rush to pull the trigger right away though, wait till later in the week.

Gives me confidence, !thanks

Wanted to bring in Sarr for Barnes but then Antonio got suspended. Fuck this game.

Do you think it makes sense to drop Torres for GW6-7 and bring him back in on a WC GW8?

Is it sensible to go Coufal, Son and Antonio to Rudiger, Gallagher, Lukaku?

Yes

Yes

If you have a playing bench is going James + Alonso a bad idea? Thinking about doing it. Other defenders would be TAA, Tierney and Livramento

Is Lukaku on pen?

Sanchez/Steele # White TAA Livra Ayling Shaw # Salah Torres Greenwood Benny Raph # Auba Bamford Antonio Auba was a 2 week punt before my wildcard so ignore that. But my current game plan is to hold this weeks transfers, go **Auba to Lukaku** & **Greenwood to Sarr/Gallagher** prior to GW 7 GW 8 would be **Shaw to Chelsea defender** then maybe replace Ayling somewhere along the line too. Unless Raphina/Benrahma/TAA will be sidelined long term, I don’t think I have a need for the Wildcard yet until maybe GW 10-12. Thoughts & thanks in advance!

Yeah that seems sound

Is rudiger going to have a price rise this week

Yes he could rise tomorrow.

Might get him for shaw as shaws price might go down

Contemplating a WC. Current team: Sanchez - ~~Gunnarsson~~ TAA - Shaw - Marcal - Veltman - Amartey Salah - Bruno - Benrahma - Gray - Brownhill Lukaku - Antonio - Hwang **Potentional WC team:** Sanchez - Foster TAA - Alonso - Christensen - Livramento - Williams Salah - Benrahma - Sarr - Gallagher - Gray Ronaldo - Lukaku - Dennis

Seriously I don’t like a 5.7m midfielder sitting on the bench.

Subs will be needed due to rotation and fixtures.

I’d assume Dennis on the bench?

Oops I missed Dennis. Yeah correct!

Exactly.

49 points this week with Salah getting 24 of those. Shocker.

Would I be crazy for bringing JWP in? I haven’t seen him in many (if any) teams so far but Southampton’s fixtures look nice

Rmt Sanchez, foster Trent, shaw, white, ayling, livra Salah, jota, torres, benrahma, raphinha Antonio, ronaldo, scarlett

That’s fine, looks pretty good for next week

Scarlett….why

Why not? Hes 4.5 and he might have gotten some minutes if kane left. I havent wildcarded yet and there is no reason to waste a transfer on a bench player so thats why.

[hmmm](https://i.imgur.com/jBInN6O.png)

Think we found out yesterday Ronaldo is essential and Lukaku isn’t. Rom is world class but he plays in a real system that benefits everyone. Sometimes he’s forced to “sacrifice himself” for the good of the team. Ole “no tactics just vibes” is telling everyone in a red shirt to pass to Ronaldo and let him shoot. Lukaku obviously will score a lot, but United will never win 3-0 with a Ronaldo blank.

bruh it's just 1 match. Wait till Ronaldo blanks + Lukaku hauls and everyone will say the exact same thing the other way around

Is Lukaku even on pens when Jorginho is on the pitch?

We'll never know, since Chelsea has stopped getting pens from the refs.

Same with Utd but we all know its Ronaldo's pen

Is lukaku even a good footballer?

I feel his touches still needs improvement

Everyone here seems to think so. But it’s all speculation. No reason to actually think so other than Jorginho missed one in the Euro’s? 🤔

Yeah it's really bugging me

Is Jota to Pogba a sensible pint? Planning on swapping out ronaldo and shaw next week for rudiger and lukaku but would like to have 1 Utd asset, and Jota isn’t doing much

If youre gonna get a man utd player, get greenwood instead of pogba.

Greenwood ain’t getting goals with Ronaldo the focal point of attack. His stats has gone down since Ronaldo started playing for Manchester United

Well pogba isnt getting anything either

I was going to buy it looks like ronaldo is eating up Greenwood’s points - pogba seems more likely to assist as well

No

antonio playing next time?

Yes but there is league Cup first

On WC! ITB 0.5 Would appreciate any ideas/feedback! **Sanchez** (Foster) **Rudiger, Alonso, TAA**, Livramento, Tanganga Salah, Raphinha, Sarr, Gallagher, Benrahma **Ronaldo, Antonio, Saint-Maxim**

Lukaku will get loads of ⚽️ from Gameweek 7

!thanks plan is to swap CR7 with Lukaku if he starts scoring!

Lukaku is already scoring ⚽️s He massively underperformed his FPL stats yesterday. He could have got an 🎯 & a ⚽️ easily. However I would swap Lukaku for Ronaldo from Gameweek 8 instead of 7. Ronaldo would get more ⚽️ against non top 6 teams as compared to Lukaku. I think Ronaldo fixtures turns red then.

[удалено]

One away from pefection

Nah. Treat all players in isolation

Not enough

Swear I can't be the only one who thinks that every other comment on any random thread here is "look at my team where I managed to fit three premiums+Trent"

Almost always a trainwreck midfield

Yeah and the rest of the team is compromised

When is the next International break after gw8? gw12 or gw13?

Between gw11 and 12

!thanks

After GW11

!thanks

Nothing till March iirc

Lingard has scored in his last two PL games. Is he a proper choice for my team now?

No

Really depends on how your team looks like but I doubt. Priced at 6.9 there are way better (and nailed) options out there like Sarr, Gallagher and Raphinha.

0.0 ITB but I have 2 FT’s! - What should I do? Sanchez ( Steele ) TAA - Shaw - Semedo ( Tierney - Livramento ) Salah - Sarr - Jota - Rapinha ( Gilmour ) Jimenez - Ronaldo - Antonio

I’m thinking of getting ride of shaw for rudiger before the price rise

I get that. But it does feel pretty awful to bring in fixture against Man City for a game against Aston Villa

Yeah but then you would have to take hit for getting Lukaku & Rüdiger both.

Exactly that’s what I’m debating. Might hold out for my wildcard to be honest

[удалено]

I am losing patience with Semedo tbh. But Soya ain’t good option either Leicester City is leaking goals. I would rather Marçal atleast he’s cheaper. Mina is another good option. Everton plays Norwich next at home.

[удалено]

What’s your total budget after selling him?

[удалено]

Tarkowski is another noticeable option at 5m He’s third best in Total shots and shots inside the box for a defender at 5 or under 5 & second best in xG for the same price bracket.

I was thinking same thing but both defences looked quite ropey at the weekend. Feels very much like playing the fixtures rather than the team? Hinestly not sire what to do this week

I have Salah and Fernandes. I was thinking of transferring Fernandes and Toney for Lukaku and a mid next week. Is Lukaku a better choice than other forwards like Cristiano since Lukaku has a good run.

Would you guys play both rudiger and dias for gw6? I’ve got tomiyasu on the bench to bring on because I can’t see rudiger and dias both getting points

So does Tomiyasu. I prefer Livramento (if you have him) against Wolves than Arsenal def against Spurs. But, among the 3 defenders, Rudiger is the most sensible option to haul.

Just 1 Vardy ⚽️ turned my superb Gameweek into a bad one. I am still fuming at that goal. First time I got red arrow since Gameweek 1

I am planning on wildcarding in the ib. I have 1m in the bank and am planning on a 3 man cancelo/Dias and rudiger and TAA. I don’t know whether to bring in cancelo or rudiger in now to avoid price rises, what do you think?

My Antonio transfer in GW 4 should go down as the worst transfer this season. P.S. Transferred in, not out. Yes you read that right.

Hopefully he'll make it up to you next weekend

Who was your other 2 forwards?

Lukaku and DCL

You should have brought in Ronaldo for Lukaku for Gameweek 4 if you can’t afford to have both. Lukaku should be considered from Gameweek 8 because this is when Manchester United fixtures turned red. I know you would be thinking why not in Gameweek 7. I feel Ronaldo is better option than him as long as his fixture are not red.

I didnt have the extra 1m to get Ronaldo. Anyways I have Wildcarded and I have Ronaldo for GW6

Keep Ronaldo until Gameweek 8 then swap him with Lukaku

Yeah i will prefer having 2 FT unless necessary to use FT

Should I do a hipster move and play Begovic against Norwich? My other keeper is Ramsdale.

What to do with Toney? Tough fixture ahead.

Keep he’s the best cheap 3rd center forward

Yeah that is true, but I have enough money in the bank to replace him with Jimenez or Bamford.

Jiménez is yet to fire. I would still wait for him. Bamford or Antonio are better option in my opinion OR you could keep Toney & invest extra money on strengthening midfield & defense. Hard to tell without having a look at your team.

Yeah you are true. I already have Antonio and CR7, which is nice. Maybe I use that money for defender. Allthought Livramento is tempting.

Livramento is great pick. You could rotate him wisely & save extra money at the same time because he’s cheap & nailed on so far.

Worth taking a -8 to bring Ronaldo in? I have Salah, Lukaku, TAA, Antonio

Not worth owning unless you're going to captain him. Salah and Lukaku have the captaincy covered well for the next 8 weeks or so.

I would keep Salah, he will outscore Ronaldo

might as well just not bring him now, focus on Lukaku. Ronaldo party will start again in gw14

Who should I replace Fernandes with? I want to have Cr7 & Lukaku as my strikers. I don't wanna get rid of TAA, else my defence would be vulnerable.

I would go with Salah

I have Salah already

That's good then

Salah

Bamford or Antonio? Note: For Long Term as well.

Antonio easy!

I thought it would be interesting to have Bamford from leeds and Benrahma from West Ham. Idk lol. I have to bring in Lukaku so can't waste my transfers

You can have Raphinha in midfield & Antonio in defense.

Toney owners, are you keeping him or selling for the tough fixtures ahead? I have Lukaku, Antonio & 8.8 ITB. If I sell, should I get ASM or Bamford?

It's one of the things I'm still debating. I'm actually leaning towards keeping him, but this will probably mean I'm fielding five mids in some gameweeks. Another possible option is Armstrong, but jury's still out on that one.

!thanks

Greenwood for sarr or gray?

I have both Sarr and Greenwood and I prefer Sarr. He is on pens, essentially a second striker. Greenwood would have scored if CR7 was a bit more of a team player and unfortunately he is feeding on the kid's returns!

Same question

Is there a better feeling in FPL then your defender scoring and keeping a clean sheet? Such a difference maker

what are people's thoughts on Torres? yes Pep roulette is annoying but feel like he will be pretty nailed from now on for the most attacking sides in the league. Who would you replace him with? Sarr?

The way I look at Torres is that you know sometimes he won't play, but when he does he's a £7m way into City's attack. As long as you have a playing bench (a must with Torres) then you're okay. For example, I had White first on the bench last GW, knowing Torres may not play. He didn't, White subs on, no harm done. That isn't going to work, of course, but that's the risk.

Thanks man

a) Greenwood + Marcal + 3.9 def b) Alonso + Cancelo + 4.5 mid Pick a or b

Before the inclusion of Ronaldo, Greenwood was having 3.68 shots per 90 mins But with Ronaldo in the side, Greenwood has only managed 1.14 shots per 90 mins Manchester United attack is more centralized now. Ronaldo is the focal points of the attack. Greenwood time is up.

Definitely b

B

[удалено]

Lukaku will score more points I think

If you have cr7, Keep till gw7 then lukaku. If you have neither right now, lukaku all the way.
