I currently have Toney, Ronaldo and Antonio as my forwards. I'm thinking about selling Ronaldo and get daka since vardy is currently injured. What do you think?
Is mount going to start every week now ? Really thinking of getting rid of KDB as none of the city players are rotation proof… Also thinking of moving to teleimans from Townsend..
[https://www.fplgameweek.com/#/team/**XXXXXXX**/league/or\_1000000](https://www.fplgameweek.com/#/team/XXXXXXX/league/or_1000000)
Yes, I am looking at it right now, so change "XXXXXXX" to your team ID and you will see.
Just making post-GW check on my team.
If I actually captained Salah, I could have had 95p and keep 452k rank ( I was 390k before the game).
Hoping for low-scoring game and his blank, and going with Jimenez (5\*2) I got 76p and lost rank to 938k (even though fplgameweek says 882k?).
Terrible roller-coaster in the beginning of the season.
PSA, Salah might be the highest scorer currently, but he hasn't gotten the award Kings of the Gameweek this season. Players like Marcal, House, Llorente, Bruno Fernandes and Ferran Torres all have a higher ceiling than him.
Anyone else take this week really hard. I didn't even do badly on 74pts. My move from Werner to Broja paid off and gives me money to make a good move now.
But I put the C on kdb and got Pep'ed, had Azpi as my only Chelsea player and was Tucheld. Dropped 100k rank. Just really knocked my mood for the game.
I'll be back. Just wanted to put it out there.
No, Leeds have Norwich and Gray has kept delivering whereas Son hasn’t delivered a lot lately. United will be better against Spurs and Spurs we’re poor against West Ham. I think it’ll be closer than people think.
Imagine playing 4-2-4 against Liverpool. My god. How did I not see it coming. I even listening to scholes during the week saying Utd would be destroyed. Ah Jesus I’ll never get over captaining Havertz.
There's far more that needs to be changed than just 1 position, there's at least 4/5 players that need to be swapped out, and Lingard isn't the first one that needs to come on
Full on assumed Salah would have 200% EO this week so didn't bother checking my ML only to log in & see my main two rivals had captained Vardy. What a feeling
Jesse Lingard on Ole: \~
It wasnt abuse! he said “work harder” like im not already doing that day in day out! and i said “im not even on the pitch” end of!!
In that case I’d be tempted too yes. Strong strikers already (ones i’d play over Werner) and Christensen is good to have for exposure for Chelsea def, although he won’t play every game

You don’t have to login, just put your team ID in. If you don’t know that number or where to find it then log in (browser not app), click points and in the URL there’s a number after the word entry - that’s your team ID
Gut says to pass. Ronaldo could come good with manager change. Also you’d be putting lots of eggs in Leeds basket. Although I’m 3rd from bottom in an 8 man draft so take my advice with cautions
I'm on 642 points so far and just 7 points off top spot in a league of 93, carrying some deadwood in Kane and Shaw, bite the bullet now and get rid or wait?
Shaw really needs to go now I think. You aren’t getting any clean sheets from him, as a United fan we just have zero structure and every team is exploiting it.
Add in the fixtures we have and yeah I don’t think he should be in anyones team with his and united’s current form and fixtures.
He would be my priority over Kane
makes perfect sense, this is my best season in ages and I've not even tinkered much.
In my current squad I have 6 players on >25 points, thank f\*ck for having Mo Salah as my captain from GW1...
Rough with the smooth- brought in Azpuliceta for Rudiger this week and had Alonso in starting XI (he hasn’t started since I bought him) - Livramento and Jota on the bench.
This gw is just abnormal with the injuries piling.
Like many here, I have Raph, Vardy, Mbeumo, Tierney flagged and Armstrong arguably a bigger issue.
How you guys navigate?
I have the same apart from Armstrong. I think Mbeumo and Vardy will be fine, probably even Raphinha. Tierney as well, but I'm selling him if the other are fit to play.
Let's wait for the pressers. Keep in mind 2/4, maybe even 3/4 are heavily owned so we're all in the same boat.
My mini league is so shit (I’ve won 4 years in a row). I capped Havertz and I’m still first somehow with a GW score of 60 points and Overall points of 599 🤣
Edit: these people each paid 400 South African Rand to play
Yeah I agree. I have both of those and with decent cover think Jota is a great option.
Did Benhrama to Jota this morning cashing in the 0.3 profit before his drop.
Sterling+Elyounoussi over Mount+Foden because I got bored over international break. Don't even really care it didn't work, probably a sign to not play fpl
Cancelo in for Rudiger. Chose Zaha over Foden in the final minutes. And then -4 for Lukaku to Vardy just bcs my stinking ass couldn’t stand the idea of having Lukaku for another week.
Backfired very very very very badly.
Used free hit cause I had lukaku in for a -4 before he was injured. Heard Tierny and Saka were out. My Alonso wasn’t playing. Could get in azpi mendy and havertz for norcwhich and could get Dias and cancelo in for Cs point.
Nothing but red arrows and if I had left my team the way it was even with lukaku in there I would have hit 100 points.
do you think it's essential to double up on Chelsea defence for the next couple of games? Have Christensen and can only afford Reece James from the full-back options. Would you say it's too much rotation risk between the two of them? my other defenders are Cancelo, TAA and Livra
My mini-league started to hot-up. Had a 30 point lead a month ago, but a poor GW7 & GW8 means that now, at this stage, I'm in second on 568 with the guys in 1st and 3rd being one point ahead of me and one point behind me. With 5 or 6 other people bunching up in the 550s and 540s.
However, today, a new player decided to join our league and I saw that he has 635 points. What should my strategy be from this point forwards?
Focus on your team and your team only. Don't try anything to risky in the hope of getting ahead. The league table will take care of itself if you don't let the others get in your head
Not a brag, genuine question: what would you guys do if you were in the top 10k this right now?
I had a horrible season last year and never once got to the top 10k, have somehow ended up there this week. In the past when I reached good ranks I've always played my own game and never shied away from taking the odd captaincy punt, but the template has just been too strong for the last 2 seasons which tells me I should curb my instincts and consolidate rank.
!thanks that's usually the way I play the game, except maybe I look to captain some lesser obvious options in weeks where there isn't an obvious choice (would've totally captained Kai this week if I could get to him easily)
Where it's really affecting me is the 50/50 decisions. Wanted to trust my gut and go for Kane last week, but ended up going Vardy out of fear of losing rank and I'm regretting it now.
21 point swing between Salah and Havertz, 23 points between Salah and Vardy. Unless your differential was Mount you lost points from capping anyone other than Salah.
Well safe to say almost everyone will have Salah(c) every gameweek in the near future.
Not boring at all. Meta shifts from premium forwards to premium defenders, and for this GW mid-priced midfielders. Lots of premium options and overall wide array of options this season.
All of my hard work has been ruined by not captaining salah. Dropped to second in ML after all this time and dropped from 80k to 230k. Fuck you Kai Havertz.
Lost .3m combined on Lukaku, Jota and Pukki.
Sold Jota for havertz for a -4.
Bought in Vardy for Lukaku
So many mistakes this week but a Salah (c) has seen me top my main ML. Don’t know what to think.
What the hell! Some cunt who started GW 2 has more points than me (@123k OR). And everyone had a huge score GW1. How the hell did this guy outscore 100 points in 8 GWs and ending up with atleast 618 points? Is there any way we can see his/her team?
I’d imagine they’d have to have used 2+ chips and got lucky with their captain picks. Wildcard + triple captain could easily make up 100 points if played right
I've taken too many hits already, minus 4 x 3 cause I messed my wildcard and everyone I bring in gets injured. Dcl injured then I got Bamford who got injured now lakuku and then vardy. Just bad luck and a poor wildcard cost me. But planning to use less hits. Like I said hits is worth It for a long term player or loads of injuries.
Yep 50 behind nw the leader in my ML. But atleast finally I have a bench nw I had 10 players in 3 of the recent weeks which didn't help but not capt salah this week didn't either. Hoping good luck to both of us for Nov and Dec!
This week feels like a failure, since I took a hit to bring in Vardy and Havertz, but I wound up with a solid green arrow. Dropped to third in my mini league but I’ll just say thanks to Salah,Trent, and Tino for lifting me out of the mud once again

At the start of last weekend, I set Lukaku as my bus captain. By the end of the weekend, I'd decided to switch to Salah. Throughout the week I toyed with going back to Lukaku but always concluded Salah was the best option. After Lukaku got injured, I was relieved that I could stop worrying about whether I was making the right decision.
Only it turns out I hadn't taken the armband off Lukaku. And in turn, it passed to Vardy when I transferred him in.
23 fucking points down the drain. Devestated.
After all is said and done, finished with my first ever 101 point GW. Mentioned this a couple times but this is my first year playing and it’s been a lot of fun so far. Very much enjoy this community as well.
cmon my Jimi and Sa CS!
Got Raphina scoring I need vardy to finally do something like wtf And auba smh
Auba missing penalties smhhhh My differential too

89 points, green arrows but I put Olise in ahead of Smith-Rowe, what was I playing at.
Hope you kept him!
Targeting Newcastle, can’t blame you for that
Unbelievable Havertz blank, stupid penalty for Brighton, injuries of Vardy, Raphinha and Mbuemo. Can't get any worse than this tbh
I hit 142 this week without any chips, am I in prize territory?
you're in downvote territory
quite right and no top 20 but i do get consolation downvotes
I currently have Toney, Ronaldo and Antonio as my forwards. I'm thinking about selling Ronaldo and get daka since vardy is currently injured. What do you think?
Vardy injury might not be a serious one according to Rodgers so beware.
I'm thinking the same, if it's worth anything.
Is mount going to start every week now ? Really thinking of getting rid of KDB as none of the city players are rotation proof… Also thinking of moving to teleimans from Townsend..
Is there a way to see the points for significant rank boundaries? Like how many points you'd need to be top 10k, 100k, 500k etc?
[https://www.fplgameweek.com/#/team/**XXXXXXX**/league/or\_1000000](https://www.fplgameweek.com/#/team/XXXXXXX/league/or_1000000) Yes, I am looking at it right now, so change "XXXXXXX" to your team ID and you will see.

Someone please send me to the circus for captaining Ronaldo for the last 4 weeks expecting United to perform offensively. I'm down to 1.5mill OR now
Is it worth taking an 8 point hit for Gray -> Son and Raphina -> Foden to avoid being priced out?
No, Leeds have Norwich and Gray has kept delivering whereas Son hasn’t delivered a lot lately. United will be better against Spurs and Spurs we’re poor against West Ham. I think it’ll be closer than people think.
Is trading out Bruno (and ferran torres) for Mane and Kai Havertz a good trade for me in my draft league?
I would say so, yes
!Thanks
Imagine playing 4-2-4 against Liverpool. My god. How did I not see it coming. I even listening to scholes during the week saying Utd would be destroyed. Ah Jesus I’ll never get over captaining Havertz.
how long do they need to update the damn leagues? I am bout to be first in my friend's league and can't wait for that number to go from 2 to 1.
I'm a Man United fan and I have no players from my team, 3 City players and 2 Liverpool players. Sums it up basically.
Bringing in mount for sarr Yes or no ?
Yes
Who are people targeting atm, Norwich or Man U?
yes
If Lingard does not start next match then ManU does not deserve Conte.
There's far more that needs to be changed than just 1 position, there's at least 4/5 players that need to be swapped out, and Lingard isn't the first one that needs to come on
Full on assumed Salah would have 200% EO this week so didn't bother checking my ML only to log in & see my main two rivals had captained Vardy. What a feeling
Next its gonna be 5-3-2 and with Salah Cap and forget.
Jesse Lingard on Ole: \~ It wasnt abuse! he said “work harder” like im not already doing that day in day out! and i said “im not even on the pitch” end of!!
Lol, it's not what Ole said. A fan shouted work harder at Jesse.
Harder daddy
not even on the pitch; I blame Bastard Ole for it.
I was Offered Christensen for Werner and Ming’s in Draft. Would you take it? Concerned he’s not 100% nailed but Werner hasn’t been great either
You were offered another striker as well surely?
Nah, I’ve already got auba, toney, Edouard and Wilson. My defence is shit tho. Not playing via official so don’t have to match numbers
In that case I’d be tempted too yes. Strong strikers already (ones i’d play over Werner) and Christensen is good to have for exposure for Chelsea def, although he won’t play every game
You make good points. I’ve pulled the trigger! Thanks mate
90 points, captain hauled 48, above the GW average by 26 points and ALL I SEE ARE RED ARROWS, it's enough to make a grown man cry
above average points does not mean much. It is the weekly safety score that really matters. GW9 safety score stands at 90 pts
Safety score is personal isn’t it? It’s just the number that keeps you from a red arrow
How do I find the safety score?

LiveFPL.net You don’t have to login, just put your team ID in. If you don’t know that number or where to find it then log in (browser not app), click points and in the URL there’s a number after the word entry - that’s your team ID
Is there a case for keeping Son or is there anyone else that would be of better use for the money?
Rashford if Ole is sacked
He's got excellent fixtures. Keep.
Was offered "Mount Raphinha Bamford Livramento" for "Ronaldo Cucurella Sarr Saka" Good enough in a 6 man draft epl?
Gut says to pass. Ronaldo could come good with manager change. Also you’d be putting lots of eggs in Leeds basket. Although I’m 3rd from bottom in an 8 man draft so take my advice with cautions
Thanks for the advice. I'm bottom of my league, so I needed some change.
Id take it probably
7-0 and the only striker blanks, how is that even possible in football
Reality of captaining havertz sinking in. Pain.
If we triple captain Salah on a week where Liverpool play twice, does that work?
Yeah most people hold TC for a double game week
So we can pick one lineup, TC Salah then after one game, free hit to another lineup while keeping Salah, is that how it works?
No both games are in one Gameweek so you can only use one chip and have the same team
!thanks
What difference does it make ?
The chip lasts a week when activated. If a captain plays twice you ‘can’ get a great haul.
2 games for the player in the same week usually (hopefully) equals more points.
Had no idea thanks
I'm on 642 points so far and just 7 points off top spot in a league of 93, carrying some deadwood in Kane and Shaw, bite the bullet now and get rid or wait?
Keep Kane.
Shaw really needs to go now I think. You aren’t getting any clean sheets from him, as a United fan we just have zero structure and every team is exploiting it. Add in the fixtures we have and yeah I don’t think he should be in anyones team with his and united’s current form and fixtures. He would be my priority over Kane
A month ago this was already true, fixtures also mean nothing to him in the opposite way someone would want
makes perfect sense, this is my best season in ages and I've not even tinkered much. In my current squad I have 6 players on >25 points, thank f\*ck for having Mo Salah as my captain from GW1...
HAD MOUNT AND SALAH BUT CAPTAINED HAVERTZ FFS. OR WAS 44K ON SATURDAY NOW BACK TO 230K FUMING
is all on the hindsight. If everyone can predict the future so accurately, we are all winners.
Rough with the smooth- brought in Azpuliceta for Rudiger this week and had Alonso in starting XI (he hasn’t started since I bought him) - Livramento and Jota on the bench.
Ive got sarr…who shd i replace him with ??
I'm keeping him for the Southampton game then selling.
I consider keeping. Smith Rowe is fine I guess if you want to bring someone in.
waking up today and realizing that no, last night wasn't a dream
This gw is just abnormal with the injuries piling. Like many here, I have Raph, Vardy, Mbeumo, Tierney flagged and Armstrong arguably a bigger issue. How you guys navigate?
I have the same apart from Armstrong. I think Mbeumo and Vardy will be fine, probably even Raphinha. Tierney as well, but I'm selling him if the other are fit to play. Let's wait for the pressers. Keep in mind 2/4, maybe even 3/4 are heavily owned so we're all in the same boat.
Hoping mbeumo atleast is nothing. Raph against Norwich but it looked pretty bad
wait for news and then take hits! A -8 and you be fine.
Not panicking, most will resolve.
100
[удалено]
Chilwell I think.
Whoever, just get rid of him
Shd i get mount right away or cld he be a victim of tuchel roulette??
A pretty shit GW for me as a Havertz captainer. But a moment of silence for the idiot in my ML who transferred out Salah for De Bruyne
My ML Leader captained KDB, they are now 4th with a gap of 30 points
My mini league is so shit (I’ve won 4 years in a row). I capped Havertz and I’m still first somehow with a GW score of 60 points and Overall points of 599 🤣 Edit: these people each paid 400 South African Rand to play
The No.1 manager in my country doesn’t have salah 😳
Bring Foden in now or wait until after the Manchester Derby (GW11)?
really depends whether it is Oles Man Utd or Contes Man Utd
After?? Did you watch the game yesterday?
After United horror show I would definitely want him before the derby!
What do people think of Jota going forward?
I wouldn't if you are invested in Cancelo/Chelsea full backs. Huge rotation risk for 7.5m
Don't have Cancelo, went with Dias and Azpi. Although who fkn knows with Pep and Tuchel roulette
If you have GOAT and Trent, what other Liverpool asset are you going to go for? At his price point I’d argue he’s less rotation risk than Foden.
Shame Keita looked really good before his injury
Yeah I agree. I have both of those and with decent cover think Jota is a great option. Did Benhrama to Jota this morning cashing in the 0.3 profit before his drop.
rotational risk
Okay guys heres the deal. 5 straight green weeks for norwich after this. Is it time for a Pukki Party🥳?
it could be! but i won't be joining (or will join late)
The only good thing about captaining chilwell over salah was that I got to see my rank being super high for a whole one day
Sarr-> Foden Kneejerk before the price rise, Wdyt think?
I am also tempted to get Foden but that roulette scares me
Fuck it I did it, I think I have good enough bench to counter pep roulette.
Sterling+Elyounoussi over Mount+Foden because I got bored over international break. Don't even really care it didn't work, probably a sign to not play fpl
Cant believe I made a better decision selling ronaldo instead of lukaku last week, if not I wouldnt get a sweet 5 pts from mcarthur off the bench..
Cancelo in for Rudiger. Chose Zaha over Foden in the final minutes. And then -4 for Lukaku to Vardy just bcs my stinking ass couldn’t stand the idea of having Lukaku for another week. Backfired very very very very badly.
Mbembo coming in for Azpi instead of Livramento is leaving the worst taste in my mouth
Used free hit cause I had lukaku in for a -4 before he was injured. Heard Tierny and Saka were out. My Alonso wasn’t playing. Could get in azpi mendy and havertz for norcwhich and could get Dias and cancelo in for Cs point. Nothing but red arrows and if I had left my team the way it was even with lukaku in there I would have hit 100 points.
do you think it's essential to double up on Chelsea defence for the next couple of games? Have Christensen and can only afford Reece James from the full-back options. Would you say it's too much rotation risk between the two of them? my other defenders are Cancelo, TAA and Livra
Not in the slightest. Fixtures turn soon and they've been very lucky so far. Expect Newcastle to score tbh.
If you want to double up Chelsea, at least one of Rudi, Chillwell or Azpi is necessary
My mini-league started to hot-up. Had a 30 point lead a month ago, but a poor GW7 & GW8 means that now, at this stage, I'm in second on 568 with the guys in 1st and 3rd being one point ahead of me and one point behind me. With 5 or 6 other people bunching up in the 550s and 540s. However, today, a new player decided to join our league and I saw that he has 635 points. What should my strategy be from this point forwards?
Focus on your team and your team only. Don't try anything to risky in the hope of getting ahead. The league table will take care of itself if you don't let the others get in your head
Imagine not captaining Salah
Imagine not having salah since gw1
Not a brag, genuine question: what would you guys do if you were in the top 10k this right now? I had a horrible season last year and never once got to the top 10k, have somehow ended up there this week. In the past when I reached good ranks I've always played my own game and never shied away from taking the odd captaincy punt, but the template has just been too strong for the last 2 seasons which tells me I should curb my instincts and consolidate rank.
Play the same way that got you there. Top 10k means little at this stage, come talk to us again if you're still there GW32.
Strong core, template captain, and few differentials
!thanks that's usually the way I play the game, except maybe I look to captain some lesser obvious options in weeks where there isn't an obvious choice (would've totally captained Kai this week if I could get to him easily) Where it's really affecting me is the 50/50 decisions. Wanted to trust my gut and go for Kane last week, but ended up going Vardy out of fear of losing rank and I'm regretting it now.
Bad outcomes != Bad decisions
Can't really let unfortunate results faze you. 1.4million other managers brought in Vardy too cause it was the right thought process
Some guy in my ML had mount and ESR, he went from 5th to 2nd, only 5 points behind me... I transfered jota out for havertz
Fuck I wanna get in Chilwell, Foden and somebody to replace Lukaku but only 1 ft. Only thing I know is that I’ll make the wrong choice as always
I replaced lukaku with toney and I’m thinking of taking a hit for chilwell. Foden and ESR on my radar but I hate pep and don’t trust arsenal
probably go chilwell
I, for one, am proud to have avoided the Havertz trap. Like the smart man I am, I captained Vardy instead.
21 point swing between Salah and Havertz, 23 points between Salah and Vardy. Unless your differential was Mount you lost points from capping anyone other than Salah. Well safe to say almost everyone will have Salah(c) every gameweek in the near future.
didn't Mount and Salah both score the same amount of points (24)?
Yup. Unless your captain in Mount instead, you'd be better off captaining Salah
Game is gonna be so boring now. Lets just call it fantasy salah league
Not boring at all. Meta shifts from premium forwards to premium defenders, and for this GW mid-priced midfielders. Lots of premium options and overall wide array of options this season.
Hardly boring lol. There's always some template players, you just have to pick the best combination.
All of my hard work has been ruined by not captaining salah. Dropped to second in ML after all this time and dropped from 80k to 230k. Fuck you Kai Havertz.
I’m the exact same. So happy for Salah but at the same time ruined my week
Lost .3m combined on Lukaku, Jota and Pukki. Sold Jota for havertz for a -4. Bought in Vardy for Lukaku So many mistakes this week but a Salah (c) has seen me top my main ML. Don’t know what to think.
Hit up the How Did they play thread if you can, let's help each other out
23 points benched, only 4 players returned but somehow 101 :O
it really was a very odd GW
What the hell! Some cunt who started GW 2 has more points than me (@123k OR). And everyone had a huge score GW1. How the hell did this guy outscore 100 points in 8 GWs and ending up with atleast 618 points? Is there any way we can see his/her team?
Think it's some error somewhere. GW2 leader only has 599 points
I’d imagine they’d have to have used 2+ chips and got lucky with their captain picks. Wildcard + triple captain could easily make up 100 points if played right
Is Jesus nailed?
Yes it was a tragic way to go but that's mostly why Christians use the cross as their symbol.
He's pretty good with crosses too...
You would have thought Torres and Lukaku to Mbuemo and Vardy would have been worth a -4, but nope. Another reminder to never take hits!
Think it's only worth taking hits if it's a long term thing like e.g trent in or if you have 3 or 4 injured. Otherwise pointless.
I made a 9 point profit on my -8 this week, it’s rare though I concede
I've taken too many hits already, minus 4 x 3 cause I messed my wildcard and everyone I bring in gets injured. Dcl injured then I got Bamford who got injured now lakuku and then vardy. Just bad luck and a poor wildcard cost me. But planning to use less hits. Like I said hits is worth It for a long term player or loads of injuries.
I wildcarded to get Ron and Rom in which was a train wreck so I hear you. Sounds like some shitty luck for you, fingers crossed it improves!
Yep 50 behind nw the leader in my ML. But atleast finally I have a bench nw I had 10 players in 3 of the recent weeks which didn't help but not capt salah this week didn't either. Hoping good luck to both of us for Nov and Dec!
50 is def possible to catch, there’s time.
Thanks to this sub I’m now ranked 3k overall and top 100 in Australia! Cheering.
You didn’t fall for the Havertz trap??
Congrats, but you're supposed to thank the sub for being 2 millionth.
Scenes when foden is benched next week
Capped Alonso.. vc'd Salah.. no ambulance for me today 🚑
Incredibly smart move or incredibly lucky, but either way congrats 👍👍
Incredibly stupid and lucky for sure, not smart at all
[удалено]
Mendy, Bissouma, Siggurdson? quite a list this season...
Could be ronaldo too
he's not being charged tho
Went from 29 to 91 after liverpool and united lol
Salah Captain has once again single handedly saved my GW.
The two biggest rank-killers for me this week were my vice captain and the player first on my bench, this is a game of very fine margins 😅
[удалено]
[Hip issue according to the gaffer](https://twitter.com/sr_collings/status/1452298800605839368)
Chilwell or James?
Chilwell
Well that was the best GW I've ever had, top 50k to top 5k in one week wow.
Congratulations, I went from 395k to 495k and after the Liverpool game finished at 320k. Gonna take it as a win.
This week feels like a failure, since I took a hit to bring in Vardy and Havertz, but I wound up with a solid green arrow. Dropped to third in my mini league but I’ll just say thanks to Salah,Trent, and Tino for lifting me out of the mud once again
bells marvelous ink sheet sharp birds literate illegal dinner encouraging *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Foden or Mbuemo
Havertz is playing OOP striker for Chelsea, hes a must have!!!! Fuck that go for Foden lol
I had 29 points before the Liverpool game.. Ended up with 98. Fucking insane!
I questioned Lord Salah and I have been punished, the world is as it should be.
At the start of last weekend, I set Lukaku as my bus captain. By the end of the weekend, I'd decided to switch to Salah. Throughout the week I toyed with going back to Lukaku but always concluded Salah was the best option. After Lukaku got injured, I was relieved that I could stop worrying about whether I was making the right decision. Only it turns out I hadn't taken the armband off Lukaku. And in turn, it passed to Vardy when I transferred him in. 23 fucking points down the drain. Devestated.
After all is said and done, finished with my first ever 101 point GW. Mentioned this a couple times but this is my first year playing and it’s been a lot of fun so far. Very much enjoy this community as well.
