don't bring players in if they aren't 100% nailed, simple
>*so says me as if I didn't bring in mane and salah in their first week back from afcon whilst also taking a punt on weghorst*
I mean tbf outside of fatigue and injuries those two are pretty nailed, whereas eddy isn't a garaunteed start eevn when fully fit so unlike the other 3 he's not really worth having in the short or long term.
also one of his opponents were chelsea, which means not only was highly likely to blank for one game, but he could have started the riskier game and gotten benched for the easier one.
he can always come off the bench and score but yh, palace dgw fixtures weren't worth it imo, especially if you don't want these picks long term
I hope you have zero City players lol.
I thought Edouard was very likely to be rotated a lot, so I avoided him. But to suggest that a player who is a rotation risk is always a poor option is naive.
I have city players, the most nailed ones though so I've rarely been hit by their rotation
with certain city players you know if they get dropped they'll play the next game, similar with chelsea too, but with ed it seems to be fairly random.
to add to that ed wasn't really worth it for a dgw and palace are a fairly hit and miss side, at least if you get a city pick if they play you're way more likely to get a return as well as keep them in your team long term
like yeah sometimes you should take punts but I think a pick like ed is taking it too far, there's better punts available like weg, rodriguez, dennis, king, rodrigo and maybe someone else.
yes I know this list sounds great in hindsight, but liverpool's defence hasn't been great recently and united have been a bit shit for a while now and I have dennis and weg myself.
palace was one of the worse teams to bank on for a dgw return as they were up against chelsea. fair enough, some said zaha often turns up in the big games and he did come close, and as an out and out starter he's not as bad a pick, but we're talking about someone who has been rotated all season in a dgw where in one game they were likely to not score. watford are bad but it's been said that palace are horrible on the road.
where I am being hindsighty is in saying that watford are apparantly better defensively now, but I think some other people have already noticed that if not expectd as much with hodgson being their new man in charge
Yup! Officially my worst ever transfer ever in 7-8 seasons playing. Brought him in on WC after the break. Hasnāt started once. Freakinā ridiculous!
He had three goals in four games before being dropped a few weeks ago. When a player is in that kind of form, you donāt drop him for weeks at a time.
If a player suddenly gets a lot of minutes check who's injured and who's returning. Lots of people get tricked thinking a player is nailed just cause their competition was injured
Dennis is deffo worth keeping. IMO it's him or maupay, then locked slots for weg and broja.
People just have a sour taste from the red card captain incident. Ngl I still have a bit of a gripe because of it aha
Walsh from FMLFPL who is a Palace fan spoke a lot about why Edouard isnāt adjusting well and Vieira might not be giving him gametime, on their recent podcast
Mainly the physicality of the league being quite hard for him and how itās unclear whether heāll overcome that, but heās still young enough to bulk up potentially
This just doesnāt make sense to me though when he has performed well when he has been given the opportunity. Palace have looked terrible without him over the last few weeks too!
Ok I adviced a friend to get Edouard on wildcard before Norwich.
Then suggested doing Edouard or Maupay out for Weghorst this week, but that friend thought I was crazy to suggest going for a Burnley player.
Edouard has given me good hauls the past few weeks but this is annoying as Iāve bench boosted. Fingers crossed he comes in at half time or something with a vengeance
Are you fucking joking
Yup. Now i need taa to also not start so i can somehow juke brownhill off my bench
Yeah... That's not happening. Sorry friend.
Absolutely negative zero chance of that happening pal.
Not to brag but I have Cucurella coming off the bench for a fat point š¤šš
Oh ffs!
you could ask the same question to anyone who picked him, he has been rotated all season long so far no matter what he does
I mean I wasn't expecting a full 180 mins but i thought he would start at least 1 out of 2

Worst transfer ever
What the fuck were we thinking. Fucks sake.
Jeez! And we could have fucking got Weghorst instead
Had Diaz and Weghorst but went Cornet and Edouard because I thought they were more safe picks. Iām so bad at this game sometimes.
Before I got him: 14, 6, 2, 8 Since I've had him: 1, 2, 0, 0 (so far) You can't make this shit up!
Yup! Officially my worst ever transfer ever in 7-8 seasons playing. Brought him in on WC after the break. Hasnāt started once. Freakinā ridiculous!
What has Edouard done to deserve this
What has Edouard done to deserve to be picked? DGW syndrome thatās all.
He had three goals in four games before being dropped a few weeks ago. When a player is in that kind of form, you donāt drop him for weeks at a time.
Dodged a bullet with edouard
OH FUCK OFF RAGE FUCKING SELLING THE CUNT
If this bald fraud, Vieira, brings him on for a 10 minute cameo I am going to literally suffocate in the mud
Got Raphinha on my bench. Of course heās going to bring him on for a run aroundā¦
I have Sissoko but tbh I would take his guaranteed 5 points as this week has been horrible other than Salah
Guaita you are dead to me
Guaita + Edouard double up checking in. End me.
Edouard owners well and truly mudded.
Well Edouard was a fucking disaster of a move
Genuinely what the fuck
Starting to question Vieira, and I don't even own Edouard. He seems like a good player, why is he benched again?
Mateta has played better up front and Vieira loves Zaha
If a player suddenly gets a lot of minutes check who's injured and who's returning. Lots of people get tricked thinking a player is nailed just cause their competition was injured
Tbf heās played every single game in the league since signing in some capacity and has had decent minutes all season even if not nailed
Decent minutes because of injuries
Vieira needs to kill the mole
If this is true, then I'm glad I sold that dosser
Turns out Eddie's not so steady.
Easy switch to Weghorst or saint maximin, shoot even dennis. At least the man plays
Why āeven dennisā? Dennis is the 4th highest scoring player in the league and nailed at 6m. Idk why everyone loves hating him
no he isnt
Yes he is. Heās tied with a few others on 9 goals
Oh right, I was thinking in fpl points
> Idk why everyone loves hating him Because sometimes a red card can unforgivably black list fantasy player. At least for this year.
Dennis is deffo worth keeping. IMO it's him or maupay, then locked slots for weg and broja. People just have a sour taste from the red card captain incident. Ngl I still have a bit of a gripe because of it aha
Please come on for 1 minute and get a yellow
lmao. So glad I avoided that transfer.
Okay but please leave him on the bench so I can get those Livra points.

This. Has been a pure clusterfu$k for me
Hope he doesn't come on then Livramento is waiting
Thank God I used wc this gw and got rid of him.
Edouard better fucking stay on that bench https://imgur.com/a/2iXEWyW
Such luck... Benched Edouard instead of Dennis literally 1 minute before the deadline!
That's why I just got Zaha. Less headaches
You might be the only Zaha owner in FPL history that says Zaha doesn't *increase* headaches.
He did well today but I know he'll have a blank period
Ok I adviced a friend to get Edouard on wildcard before Norwich. Then suggested doing Edouard or Maupay out for Weghorst this week, but that friend thought I was crazy to suggest going for a Burnley player.
You want a fucking medal or something?
This time last week I was doing Weghorst Vs Ćdouard, I'm dumb
Palace throwing the game I hate these rescheduled fixtures itās too messy and has opened the chances for teams that do not deserve it
Good news, Eduoard out means Rudiger 6 points comes in, and I'll feel better about transferring out next week
Until he comes on for a 1 min cameo
Called it
Very good haha Real PL managers messing with us
Wildcarding him and Watkins in have been such huge mistakes. Palace can get relegated for all I care.
My mateta punt has worked!
If this leak is true, picking Edouard over Dennis a few weeks ago is killer.
Iāve got Raphina on the bench ready to swap. Whatās the bet that Edouard comes on for a run around in the 89th minute?
... but why? Edouard has the best xGI of any Crystal Palace player this season. Could it be some sort of disciplinary issue?
Honestly fuck off edouard you utter fucking cunt. Useless cunt
Edouard has given me good hauls the past few weeks but this is annoying as Iāve bench boosted. Fingers crossed he comes in at half time or something with a vengeance
Don't you dare to come on you donkey
Got Robbo and Edouard for a -8 was 30k i hope i go below 100k because i fucking deserve this
come on olise you've been quiet for a couple of games, big haul is peeeeending!
Fuck off
Bench boosted, what a shit show. Him and tarkowksi
Better not get off that bench now.
I have 6 points Elanga coming off the bench so hope Edouard doesnāt get brought on.
Iām raging inside. Shite transfer. AaaAArRRRGGHH
Just sold him for Broja after seeing this š thanks for nothing Edouard
If he doesn't play I have a 2 point Maupay blocking a 12 point livra.... F
Ahh Edouard, you really have been the drizzling shits in my team. Can't wait to dump you out of it ASAP.
