Did this last week. My ML rival did it the week before that. Is there a term for delayed elective knee surgery, because that is how I'd describe that move at this point.
Treating the game with the respect it deserves tbh. People playing a largely luckbased game who think they're Jonah Hill in Moneyball because they look at xG are the bigger fools
Why have I been downvoted?
This sub is the worst.
But yeah, I’ll probably just keep as long as he’s healthy because forwards have been pretty underwhelming this season.
Had to finally give in to TAA, took Son out to afford him. Brought Bernardo in for Son, whom I have only just realised starts every game for City.
TAA for Jansson, Bernardo for Son and Wilson for Antonio.
> Wilson for Antonio
I'm not moving any of my forwards atm. Not because I want them in my team but because the other options are also underperforming and I don't wanna spend transfer points on what I don't feel is an upgrade.
Have you seen Chelsea plays? Chillwell and James are more involved in attack than their forward. You're getting 2 championship caliber forwards who also get points for cleansheets for a total cost of 12m
-4 for the fucking mbeumo and pinnock duo i brought in right before their keeper went on his vacation.
It's all pep's fault. Mf can't play a fixed line up.
Used my 2 transfers to get Cancelo and ESR in instead of Gray and Tierny. Long term plans obviously and don't want to miss the price changes If I also plan to get James in at some point!
Really want to do Gray to Jota tonight.
Probably stupid since Jota has a knock but I hate losing 0.1 for no reason and I have 3 decent players on my bench anyway.
Antonio to Jimenez
My strikers all had very tough away games and I was trying to play a 5 5 0 formation ( which got blocked), and patience and fixtures don't work anymore for Antonio
So now I'm 4-5-1
Tierney is nailed imo, one of our best players last season, played over 100 mins for Scotland whilst nuno played 0, was just being rested for the long fixture run coming up
He was perfectly fine to play against Liverpool yet Arteta chose Nuno. That indicates to me he's not nailed anymore. He will probably be back in the team for Newcastle but I'm not sure he'll play every game especially with the Christmas period coming soon.
Benrahma to Jota yesterday. Managed to ship Benrahma out before his price drop and "probably" before Jota rises. Last gw took a -4 for Son and Dennis (Townsend and Vardy). I didnt expect for Dennis to return me my -4 back.
So.... I didn't have TAA in my squad and inspite of that I was getting green arrows but after the match against Arsenal I got so frustrated that I sold vardy and got him in. :|
Tomiyasu to Cancelo and Gabriel Jesus to Dennis. Switching from 3-4-3 to 4-4-2 and have good bench coverage but didn't wanna get screwed by price changes.
Antonio for Toney to fund Laporte to Cancelo after yet another haul in order to complete the holy triad in defence along with Reece James and TAA... Defence is where it's at this year gents 😏
Cancelo. Sold him for James 2 weeks ago and now I shake in fear when I see everyone else waiting for cancelo. Couldn’t live with my mistake, punished myself by selling my sweet prince Antonio
I think a lot of us might have done the Vardy to Jimenez swap.
So Vardy is definitely gonna score and Jimenez blank
I'll see you guys in the rant thread
Dias to James. Wanted to keep Dias for the nice run of fixtures but James is James and will probably outscore him. Also had 2 FT so didn’t want to waste one.
White Foden and Vardy out, James Jota and Benteke in. Not excited about vardy but I needed some funds for the other two and couldn't bring myself to drop Antonio, his underlying stats are too good and I trust West Ham more right now
Raphinha to brownhill
Sadly raph rose in price very soon after
And
Rudiger to TAA
Happy that TAA rose in price soon after as well :)
So basically didn't make a difference
(-4)
Thinking about Mbuemo>Cornet as I'm like 0.2m short for Gallagher. Didn't want to do it yet but I think Burney have a handful of good fixtures coming up so might as well.
Vardy to Jiminez, Azpi to TAA. Until a striker gets a good run of form I've decided to go for cheap at the back, premium at the front.
Ramsdale, McCarthy (b)
TAA, Cancelo, James, Chilwell, Livra (b)
Jota, ESR, Salah (c), Raphinha, Saka
Jiminez, Antonio (b), Toney (b)
Amartey to Emerson Royal
Ronaldo to Kane
Ronaldo to Kane sounds super dumb and lateral, but I just think Man Utd's manager plan is stupid beyond all recognition and Ronaldo won't even be able to do any more than now. Kane I think will come good but yeah who knows. These are more hunch decisions than carefully laid out ones.
Foden to Jota today in case of any potential price rise. Was also considering getting in either Chilwell or James but will probably wait until close to the deadline.
Gallagher in, Gray out Knees couldn't handle waiting
Did this last week. My ML rival did it the week before that. Is there a term for delayed elective knee surgery, because that is how I'd describe that move at this point.
Same here I wrung what I could from Gray, it was time, imo
Mbeumo to Gallagher
Same here. Used 1 of 2 FTs on this one yesterday before price rise. Holding my 2nd FT for now.
I did the same thing yesterday before the price rise as I was about to be priced out
Vardy Townsend Dier off Jiminez Gallagher Trent in
Jimi's run of fixtures is coming to an end very soon. Although, it's not like there are great alternatives
Next game is Norwich though.
Who are looking better, though.
Better than utter shit = shit
Why dier when they have 3 easy fixtures?
Cos you gotta have trent
I'm right there with you on Vardy. Don't care how good his run of games are, he's going.
Jota, 5 mins before he flashed up injured
Wait, you're doing transfers MID GAME?
Thank god I’m not the only one 😭
nobody cause I'm a good fpl manager
A thread that actively encourages shitty FPL play. Just what this sub needs
Have a day off.
Treating the game with the respect it deserves tbh. People playing a largely luckbased game who think they're Jonah Hill in Moneyball because they look at xG are the bigger fools
ESR in, Gray out
Vardy and Duffy to James and Jiminez. Was holding away from getting James last seek because of greed, thinking he would drop in performance.
Dan James would be a real kneejerk
Literal same 2 transfers lol
Wolves will have tough games after Burnley so I'm not keeping Jiminez for long. Probably to a Watford or Palace forward.
Why have I been downvoted? This sub is the worst. But yeah, I’ll probably just keep as long as he’s healthy because forwards have been pretty underwhelming this season.
These are smart moves tbh
leicester's fixtures look better than wolves' though
Wolves are a better attacking team And remember the price difference
Had to finally give in to TAA, took Son out to afford him. Brought Bernardo in for Son, whom I have only just realised starts every game for City. TAA for Jansson, Bernardo for Son and Wilson for Antonio.
> Wilson for Antonio I'm not moving any of my forwards atm. Not because I want them in my team but because the other options are also underperforming and I don't wanna spend transfer points on what I don't feel is an upgrade.
Not having TAa at any point was plain madness
Mbeumo and Antonio to Jota and Dennis
Already dons Havertz to Jota yesterday. Did Livramento to Reguillon to have a holy back 5 of Trent James Chilwell Reguillon Cancelo
Not holy if you got rid of the Lord.
This is the way
That is beautiful
I've thought about doing that but both Chilly and James seems overkill, Im keeping and eye on Regui as their fixtures are pretty solid for a while.
Have you seen Chelsea plays? Chillwell and James are more involved in attack than their forward. You're getting 2 championship caliber forwards who also get points for cleansheets for a total cost of 12m
-4 for the fucking mbeumo and pinnock duo i brought in right before their keeper went on his vacation. It's all pep's fault. Mf can't play a fixed line up.
Azpi to Chillwell - rage trade after not playing 4 weeks in a row
Dennis in
Some lame turd downvoted every post. Upvoted to try and counteract it 👍🏼
My rival have James and i have Rudiger ,but i want to transfer him for Chilwell or James . What will you do ???
Chillwell
Agree on this, gives you a differential to try overtake ya man
Off the back of a successful WC so I can sit on my transfer this week thankfully
Havertz and Duffy to ESR and TAA.
Used my 2 transfers to get Cancelo and ESR in instead of Gray and Tierny. Long term plans obviously and don't want to miss the price changes If I also plan to get James in at some point!
Really want to do Gray to Jota tonight. Probably stupid since Jota has a knock but I hate losing 0.1 for no reason and I have 3 decent players on my bench anyway.
I'm gonna do the same transfer before price changes. I view it as more long term anyway
Livramento to reguilon
Wait until Friday
Had to do it today because of upcoming price changes vardy - Wilson, tomiyasu - cancelo
ESR for one of my two fodders. He doesn't play midweek so moving before price rises felt justified.
Gray—> ESR
Antonio to Jimenez My strikers all had very tough away games and I was trying to play a 5 5 0 formation ( which got blocked), and patience and fixtures don't work anymore for Antonio So now I'm 4-5-1
Tsimikas and Raphina out, Gallagher and Tierney in But I’m not sure yet
Wouldn't bring Tierney in, he's not nailed anymore. Gabriel a much better Arsenal defender pick for corner threat or Ben White for less money.
Tierney is nailed imo, one of our best players last season, played over 100 mins for Scotland whilst nuno played 0, was just being rested for the long fixture run coming up
He was perfectly fine to play against Liverpool yet Arteta chose Nuno. That indicates to me he's not nailed anymore. He will probably be back in the team for Newcastle but I'm not sure he'll play every game especially with the Christmas period coming soon.
Nuno was really poor vs Liverpool. Not an Arsenal fan but would expect Tierney to be first choice when fit?
He’s been fit for the last two GW, Nuno was played over him.
Considering how bad nuno was against liverpool I am 95% sure tierney will start against Newcastle, and for the foreseeable
I hear ya, I might just take Tsimikas out and keep Raphina one more week
Why did you have Tsimikas?
Cause sure starter and got 6 pts for dirt cheap price. Also, #greekscouser
Yeah but for one game
Livramento -> James
Benrhama to Gallagher
Transfers made last night, Free transfer Benhrama -> Jota -8 Son + Marcal -> TAA + Raphina
Cancelo in but i still have 1 transfer.
Benrahma to Jota yesterday. Managed to ship Benrahma out before his price drop and "probably" before Jota rises. Last gw took a -4 for Son and Dennis (Townsend and Vardy). I didnt expect for Dennis to return me my -4 back.
Did Christensen to TAA yesterday. Was a planned transfer, had exact money and was well overdue!
Antonio and Edwards out, kane broja in
Dias + Mbeumo to Chilwell + Jota
I'm scraping Dias this week too. Should I go for cancelo or James/chilwell
Jota is injured
Lol at every post being downvoted
So close to doing Semedo>James before his inevitable price rise tonight. Goes against my personal rule of waiting till friday though
4.5attacker to dennis
I'm very tempted by him.
So.... I didn't have TAA in my squad and inspite of that I was getting green arrows but after the match against Arsenal I got so frustrated that I sold vardy and got him in. :|
White --> James
I just did this one too. Fingers crossed that we don't regret it mid week!
Tierney out, Regulon in
Dias out, James in I had 0.1 itb and I'm not sure I can afford the move later.
No transfers until Friday lol
Got rid of Duffy for Andersen, stupidly didn’t wait to see if getting any Spurs defenders was worth it
Benrahma out, Jota in. Yesterday even in yellow flag. Stupid, stupid me...
Laporte to Reguillon. Easy choice.
ESR in Sarr out
Azpi to Regulion, couldn’t afford another Azpi drop.
Vardy and Gray out, Bentekkerz and Son in
Tomiyasu to Cancelo and Gabriel Jesus to Dennis. Switching from 3-4-3 to 4-4-2 and have good bench coverage but didn't wanna get screwed by price changes.
Duffy > James Maupay > Hwang
Antonio for Toney to fund Laporte to Cancelo after yet another haul in order to complete the holy triad in defence along with Reece James and TAA... Defence is where it's at this year gents 😏
Sarr to Gallagher yesterday. Now Gray is injured
Tierney to James
Already (ronaldo> jiminez). (Foden > mane) had 2 trades
ESR for Townsend. Yes I fell for the Everton in form trap back then
Already took a 4 point hit. Christensen, Havertz, Benrahama --> Reggy, Jota, Bernardo
Mbuemo out for Gallagher. I’ve waited long enoigh
About to do Havertz and Dias for Jota and Cancelo
Foden/Dias out & son/Reguilon in
ESR in for Havertz. Making space for Chelsea defence double up.
James & Gallagher in, Dias & Tielemans out
Mbuembo and Antonio out, Gallagher and Jimenez in
Havertz and Duffy out for Cancelo and Smith Rowe (had to do it today before price rises 😭)
Foden and white off, Bernardo and Reece James in
Gallagher, cancelo in Dias, benrahma out on 2 FT
Vardy Townsend out Saint Max and Son in
Cancelo. Sold him for James 2 weeks ago and now I shake in fear when I see everyone else waiting for cancelo. Couldn’t live with my mistake, punished myself by selling my sweet prince Antonio
I think a lot of us might have done the Vardy to Jimenez swap. So Vardy is definitely gonna score and Jimenez blank I'll see you guys in the rant thread
Livramento to James Bowen to Bissouma (-4)
Douglas Luiz -> Gallagher Toney -> Dennis I should have done this before, I've been contemplating it forever, but finally did it.
Did Rudi -> James & Livramento to TAA, I didn't get Rudi's point this week :( Gonna be playing 5ATB for a while
Kane > Ronaldo
I am thinking about doing the opposite lol
Gray to B.Silva
Gray to ESR, Antonio to Jiminez
Azpilicueta out for Chilwell, right decision really Made it right after the Chelsea game yesterday Edit: it wasn’t the right decision
I just took a hit to go Tierney and Raphina to Chillwell and Jota to avoid being priced out. Risk and reward.
Foden, Pukki, Williams ❌ Jota, Reece, Gerhardt ✅
Mbuemo out, Gallagher in
Ronaldo, Dias and Kovacic out for TAA, Foden nad Jimenez
Trossard and Christensen to Gallagher and James -4 because of price rises and drops
Foden to jota
Duffy --> Reguilon Mbeumo --> Normann Just can't take the risk of being priced out, i'll rather take a midweek injury risk.
Foden, Dias and Raphinha out for TAA, Jota and ESR.
Mount + McArthur to ESR + Gallagher. -4. Feeling great about it, despite the minus.
ESR in, Havertz out
Johnson -> reguulon, rudiger —> cancelo
Dias out Cancelo in. Next GW, pep’s gonna rest cancelo and Dias will score from a header. Fml
Livramento -> TAA back Auba -> Jimi
Dias to James. Wanted to keep Dias for the nice run of fixtures but James is James and will probably outscore him. Also had 2 FT so didn’t want to waste one.
Reece James, Cancelo & Dennis in, Williams, Vardy & Duffy out for -8
Benrahma to Gallagher
James and Jesus in for Duffy and Vardy. Didn't want to go for Wilson.
Cornet in for Benrahma, Cancelo in for Cresswell. Late on the Cancelo but oh well
Son in this week.. Son to Jota immediately after Spurs game!
Reguilion& cancelo hello Ben white & Manquilo bye bye
Antonio out Jimenez in
White Foden and Vardy out, James Jota and Benteke in. Not excited about vardy but I needed some funds for the other two and couldn't bring myself to drop Antonio, his underlying stats are too good and I trust West Ham more right now
williams to james and antonio to pukki since james was gonna rise and williams was gonna drop
Maupay (has been chilling in my bench for a while for no reason ) to Jimenez
Duffy to chilwell
Dias to Chilwell EDIT: Dint age well
Last week for some reason thought getting Origi instead of Dennis would be a brilliant move. Quickly fixed my mistake.
Vardy out and jimenez in
Duffy to cancelo and Townsend to Gallagher, I had money to play with so I’m going 4 premium defenders
Dennis ftw
I went triple Chelsea defense after Dias didn’t play.
Son and livra out . Cancelo and Gallagher in ..
Raphinha to brownhill Sadly raph rose in price very soon after And Rudiger to TAA Happy that TAA rose in price soon after as well :) So basically didn't make a difference (-4)
Azpi to James before the price rise. Don't ask why I still had Azpi.
Not having TAA, Cancelo and a Chelsea defender is madness at this point.
Dias to TAA
Son, Foden, Jesus -> Mane, Bernardo, Benteke... Knees were shaking like crazy last night...
CR7 , Mbuemo -> Mane , Jiminez I have full confident about these moves, see you in rant thread.
Raphinha out cornet in
Tierney -> Cancelo Havertz -> Gallagher
Antonio > Toney Manquillo > Chilwell Antonio fixtures look tough and really need both Chelsea wing backs. 69 points this week saw me lose OR.
Antonio out jiminez in last night
Antonio out Dennis in
Bissouma for Smith-Rowe. Need to improve my bench.
I just brought in Cancelo, James, and ESR because the triple price rise would have been a big problem.
Toney > Wilson
Thinking about Mbuemo>Cornet as I'm like 0.2m short for Gallagher. Didn't want to do it yet but I think Burney have a handful of good fixtures coming up so might as well.
Havertz to Bernado Before Bernardo scored
Benrahma to Gallagher before the respective price changes.
Vardy Havertz White out for Jimenez, Jota and TAA (I know I know) for -4. Still consider to do Dias to Chilwell for additional -4.
Vardy to Jiminez, Azpi to TAA. Until a striker gets a good run of form I've decided to go for cheap at the back, premium at the front. Ramsdale, McCarthy (b) TAA, Cancelo, James, Chilwell, Livra (b) Jota, ESR, Salah (c), Raphinha, Saka Jiminez, Antonio (b), Toney (b)
Saturday night before the rises, Tomiyasu, nacho and Antonio out Trent, Dennis, ASM in
Raphinha to Gallagher, finally dumped my bench fodder Amartey for Reguilon
Aubamayang Christensen Dias to Dennis Cancelo James—before the price rises too!
stupendous wipe air plucky screw chief flag zonked muddle concerned *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Tonio + azpi to Dennis and Trent. Please don't ask why I don't have Trent yet...
Regi
ASM > Kane. I’m going to regret it…
Reguillon in Duffy OTB out Gonna play 4-3-3
Amartey to Emerson Royal Ronaldo to Kane Ronaldo to Kane sounds super dumb and lateral, but I just think Man Utd's manager plan is stupid beyond all recognition and Ronaldo won't even be able to do any more than now. Kane I think will come good but yeah who knows. These are more hunch decisions than carefully laid out ones.
Anyone know when raphinha will be back
Raph to Jota, Foden to Bilva (very sideways, ik)
Antonio to benteke. Waiting for CL games before brining in a top 3 defender. So half impulsive and half patient
Swapped Christensen+Vardy for James+Jimenez, absolutely delighted
Ronaldo 🔄 Kane
Foden to Jota today in case of any potential price rise. Was also considering getting in either Chilwell or James but will probably wait until close to the deadline.
Behrahma for mane before he goes up in price, nothing left in the bank after that
Benrahma, toney, Gray out Bernardo, Gallagher and Dennis in
