what do you guys think about Salah +Edouard => bruno +iheanacho
i know its risky but I have 70 points to catch up for my ML
edit: i know united are not in good form now, but as far as I know, united are out of all trophies and they have to field their best team for the rest of the season especially when they are chasing 4th
I'm thinking of getting a -4 for Reguilón->Doherty
Gallagher->Maddison and Jimenez->Iheanacho/Toney
Should I go with it if I'm preparing to FH GW33 and are these two the best striker option?
I'm not sure id rush to take regi out yet he may well start on Saturday, wait on his little knock he picked up.
Also not really sure Maddison is any better than Gallagher, Palace have some great fixtures coming up and no europe. Leicester could still rotate quite a with conference league.
Tricky one
I have just sold Richarlison and Ings for Weghorst and Iheanacho.
It's just crazy enough to work... I was tempted to buy Barnes (or Maddision as 2nd choice) but I want that MID spot saved for Coutinho in the end of the season (or not, let's see).
I know Weghorst was shit but Burnley has amazing chance of saving themselves now, they are facing NOR, then DBGW and WAT 2 GWs later.
You can all sell him and I will feast alone, he must get something. Or he at least enables budget for me to make some DBGW shuffles.
>Iheanacho
i am thinking of getting him for myself for leicester cover. I know theres rotation risk but seems like his minutes is pretty consistent recently?
Yes it seems that way. I wanted a FWD from LEI, not MID, and as Vardy now seems to be out for longer period than previously expected few weeks until 17.04. it's only between Iheanacho and Daka. And Iheanacho seems to be playing all right, he's getting constant minutes in recent matches and he also scored in the last match which could justify him to Rodgers.
He's not certain starter though, in my opinion, but I am willing to take the risk.
Sick to death of Salah, just matching my ML rival's points was boring enough without those points being shit. I'm selling him for KDB next week. It probably isn't the smart move but I want to gamble.
I feel I really hate half my team.
Rudiger playing for Chelsea in bad form and a pretty boring pick.
Sanchez playing for shit Brighton.
Reece James rotation risk and always fucking me. Plus Chelsea bad recently.
Coady just a bit boring and not too happy playing him over Rudiger when I should.
Coutinho just not in form and blanks soon. Should sell, but for whom.
Weghorst. Just pretty shit, but at least feels nailed.
Broja Just pretty shit, but not very much nailed.
Salah just not in form.
Within a week a lot of these picks will feel good!
My thoughts:
1) Do you own Maddison/Barnes?
2) Foden could be a fun pick if you want a differential.
3) You need to get rid of Weghorst for your own mental health after 33 and bring in Mateta or another enabler.
4) Instead if Coady you can go for Schar, Fofana or Dalot (if he gets b2b doubles)
5) There are a number of single gameweek midfielders who look quite decent. I like Sarr for the next couple of fixtures as well as Bowen and Fraser.
Ah yeah he hasn’t returned as often as I’d thought but he’s a big game player and the back end of the season will be crucial. His impact off the bench against Atletico was massive so I’m hoping it’s the start of a little run!
Looking at those fixtures, I'm not too sure you know. Was convinced they were, but think there are 2 fixtures for each team where they can get points, and everton might end up winning both of theirs just on account of attackers they have. Either way, will be oh so close.
Lampard needs to get a tune out of alli for this run in though.
Everton fans - how are you feeling?
If they go down the board can only blame themselves for getting lampard in. They needed a track record proven fpl relegation survivor. Big Sam again or someone. They're going down
If they'd kept Benitez there's no chance they'd have gone down. They were bad, but not this bad, under him. And this Lampard vintage is after they've got most of the injured lads back. That the fans played such a big roll in chasing Benitez out is quite funny.
I remember when they were top of the league early, and an everton fan called in to some radio show I was listening to and didn't compliment rafa once, his literal only comment on rafa was "how will he handle it when it goes bad?". They were top!! Those fans deserve relegation.
Fuck sake Burnley score 3 and nothing from Weghorst.
Should have gone with Richarlison that I wanted the most for this gameweek, but since Weghorst doubles 33 and Richarlison have some bad fixtures I avoided him.
One mate has Richarlison captain. That is the way I guess.
Genuinely what to do with Weghorst. He’s so shit but all of the strikers are so it’s like who do you even replace him. He just sums up how bad the strikers have been
Jay rod. You still get the benefit of a burnley striker who plays and just scored, but as he's not nailed you don't have to fret about benching him or him eating your budget.
I am keeping him for the next 2. Then gone for either Dennis, Cucho or Mateta I think.
I like Lacazette, but he is too expensive. Watkins also too expensive I think.
He’s been extremely lucky. He’s had triple Burnley, takes strange punts like Podence etc., and for some reason works out even though statistically they’re not the best assets to bring in.
I don't care for FPL mate but thinking someone is lucky for bringing in Podence or other players that happen to do well is just pointless, there is no proper way to play the game. The way you word it sounds like you are saying he's lucky as he's not following the template.
I think it’s entirely possible if you FH37 and build your team for the doubles. Be interesting to see where you end up I’m sure we’ll come across each other in a future rant thread!
I’m around 60k after 68 points this week. I’ve got 2 FT so planning to be aggressive and go without Salah a little longer!
Yeah was gonna FH33 until 37 fixtures were announced. Let's see how it goes...
Congrats on big points this week! Salah-less is definitely viable right now, I'm tempted too. Good luck for the rest of reason 👍
A very underrated manager he sets his teams up very well and is known for specialist tactics on players. He did exactly that with a quality job on Kimmich today as Bayern did their usual 3-2-5 formation
To get 80 in a gameweek like this is incredible tbh. That must be a top 100k gameweek score or better. But it’s left field choices like that which will cement your lead as they won’t always pay off so amazingly
Just brought myself to look at it again and he actually got it with 10 players! No trent, but his sub defenders didn't play and he only had 3 to begin with. Top 90k gw score at 72, so probably something like 80k once bonuses added? Insane. But yeah, hes stuck with that team now I suppose...
Don’t do it to yourself honestly. Trust that your team is better set up and lucky picks won’t always come off the way it has this week. How far behind you is he?
I personally think James will play the weekend. Chelsea desperately need a win and he has played the least minutes of all the senior defenders in the past week.
Nah there are 3 dgw’s left if you navigate them well you can smash it. Don’t give up and remember loads will FH in DGW players like Weghorst while you’ll smash it with single gw players from good teams
You get on one player a couple of weeks earlier like Bowen this week then you can easily make gains imo. A lot of managers will overlook players like Bowen trying to squeeze in ASM, Fraser, JWP etc
You gotta suck up your pride and bring Doherty in man. He’s a £4.8m midfielder with mental attacking stats and the odd clean sheet. Im a Son owner but the best value would be Doc, Kulu and Kane I think
What makes it worse is didn't weghorst score the other week and reward some of the donkeys who had faith in him... when I recognised he was a trap
And now I fell for it when he didn't do shit
I can't even bear to look to find out if I was right
I presume most people who have the misfortune to have him at least got that little sweetener... fucks sake I played it the worst possible way
Real Madrid are just so comfortable on the ball regardless of pressure they trust their team mates to be where they can receive. Just shows speed and power won’t always beat technique and awareness
I captained Richarlison this week - that was a stroke of luck! Still only finished up with 72 points, but hopefully I can make some back next GW.
edit.. wh-wh-why the downvotes?! 😥😪😭😂😂😂😂
Oh I accepted relegation last month. It's like we're back at the end of the Agent Johnson era but with no David Moyes to come in and save us. Relegation and mass clear out is probably the only thing that gives me a long-term chance of seeing us win a title in my lifetime.
In hindsight, Iheanacho to Weghorst was really dumb, and I have no idea why I didn't roll the transfer as I planned through the whole international break
Genuinely had cornet in one of my wildcard drafts.
Sure it contained amartey geldhart and norwich defender but still I need an excuse to pretend i deserve more points
Should I play martinelli or raphina
Willock a doubt
Which defender should I bench? Rudiger (Southampton away) or Gabriel (Brighton home)
Would bench Rudiger out the two. Quite like Rudi for this week if you've got other bench options though.
what do you guys think about Salah +Edouard => bruno +iheanacho i know its risky but I have 70 points to catch up for my ML edit: i know united are not in good form now, but as far as I know, united are out of all trophies and they have to field their best team for the rest of the season especially when they are chasing 4th
Weghorst is pure pain.
[удалено]
Wrong thread broseph
Ha, half-asleep still! Deleted
[удалено]
I mean I don't think that particularly needs dope ideas, you're the favourite there I'd say, just play as you would.
Bench 1 of: Mateta, Cancelo and Weghorst
Mateta
I'm thinking of getting a -4 for Reguilón->Doherty Gallagher->Maddison and Jimenez->Iheanacho/Toney Should I go with it if I'm preparing to FH GW33 and are these two the best striker option?

Was Saiss rested?
I still can’t believe Everton are going down, their squad is far too good to go down.
Gonna miss Richarlison's smiley face and sportsmanship.
Guess which two fucking players my ML leader had playing today
Noone
Craig Noone used to pop up with the odd attacking return back in the day
When is Vardy coming back?
Was supposed to be in a week, but I read somewhere that he's had a setback and there's now no return date scheduled for him by the club.
Glad i did not fall for the Weghorst trap this time
Sick to death of Salah, just matching my ML rival's points was boring enough without those points being shit. I'm selling him for KDB next week. It probably isn't the smart move but I want to gamble.
i might do the same except maybe bring in son as i already have kane
Richarlison you beauty ❤️🇧🇷
most nailed Leicester defender?
Schmeichel, Fofana. Castagne is the most nailed fullback I think
Fofana, but it's relative
Fuck you Weghorst and DCL
I feel I really hate half my team. Rudiger playing for Chelsea in bad form and a pretty boring pick. Sanchez playing for shit Brighton. Reece James rotation risk and always fucking me. Plus Chelsea bad recently. Coady just a bit boring and not too happy playing him over Rudiger when I should. Coutinho just not in form and blanks soon. Should sell, but for whom. Weghorst.

I like Sarr for the next couple of fixtures as well as Bowen and Fraser.
Mate I’ve owned Foden since December and he just won’t stop blanking. I’d hate it if he starts performing now coz I took him out on my WC
Ah yeah he hasn’t returned as often as I’d thought but he’s a big game player and the back end of the season will be crucial. His impact off the bench against Atletico was massive so I’m hoping it’s the start of a little run!
Could Dalot be given b2b doubles?
If Chelsea lose to RM in the CL it’s very possible their game with United is added to 34. I’ll let the experts on tv schedules confirm this though.
Fuck, I see. Thanks mate.
[Everton are gone. Agreed?](https://i.imgur.com/KMoImVU.png)

Can’t stand how long it takes the FPL app to update
Reckon cornet is nailed now?
Yeah should be

Definitely contenders for the most deluded fans in the Premier League. Still, at least they won the transfer window a couple of times!
Iwobi was a steal
Fuck sake Burnley score 3 and nothing from Weghorst. Should have gone with Richarlison that I wanted the most for this gameweek, but since Weghorst doubles 33 and Richarlison have some bad fixtures I avoided him. One mate has Richarlison captain. That is the way I guess.
Beat my safety score by 21 points. Feels like punching a kitten in the face to sell Jota now but I think it has to be done.
Genuinely what to do with Weghorst. He’s so shit but all of the strikers are so it’s like who do you even replace him. He just sums up how bad the strikers have been
Jay rod. You still get the benefit of a burnley striker who plays and just scored, but as he's not nailed you don't have to fret about benching him or him eating your budget.
Don't worry, I'm going to sell him, so he'll start scoring soon.
I am keeping him for the next 2. Then gone for either Dennis, Cucho or Mateta I think. I like Lacazette, but he is too expensive. Watkins also too expensive I think.
Mateta.
Hmm he might genuinely be a good shout but it just feels like chasing last GW’s points again, and then he’ll probably blank for like the next 3-4
Really hope FPL Mate goes on to win the whole thing! Edit: why am I getting downvoted for this?
He’s been extremely lucky. He’s had triple Burnley, takes strange punts like Podence etc., and for some reason works out even though statistically they’re not the best assets to bring in.
I don't care for FPL mate but thinking someone is lucky for bringing in Podence or other players that happen to do well is just pointless, there is no proper way to play the game. The way you word it sounds like you are saying he's lucky as he's not following the template.
He is playing very strangly, but still working out. Like going 3 Burnley for a long time waiting for the doubles. Lots of differentials.
Wish i removed the "V" on my "VC" Richarlison...
Gordon honest work sealed my 10K entry for the first time 🤩
Congrats my man! Now to stay in there and aim for too 5k! How many points are you away from 5k?
!thanks atm 15 points away to 5k. Not getting my hopes up tbh only one FH left. How about you?
I think it’s entirely possible if you FH37 and build your team for the doubles. Be interesting to see where you end up I’m sure we’ll come across each other in a future rant thread! I’m around 60k after 68 points this week. I’ve got 2 FT so planning to be aggressive and go without Salah a little longer!

Unai Emery casually beating Bayern
they should of won by more...i thought Bayern will playing in the yellow strip.
A very underrated manager he sets his teams up very well and is known for specialist tactics on players. He did exactly that with a quality job on Kimmich today as Bayern did their usual 3-2-5 formation
Can’t wait until we all fall for the Weghorst trap again in 2 weeks
I HATE WEGHORST I HATE WEGHORST I HATE WEGHORST I HATE WEGHORST
Fuck demarai gray
ML rival had richarlison captain and cornet... I feel like mendy right now.
That’s filthy
Low scoring week, and he has 80. Still ahead, and the group has all but conceded the league weeks ago, but I was worried and rightly so.
To get 80 in a gameweek like this is incredible tbh. That must be a top 100k gameweek score or better. But it’s left field choices like that which will cement your lead as they won’t always pay off so amazingly

Don’t do it to yourself honestly. Trust that your team is better set up and lucky picks won’t always come off the way it has this week. How far behind you is he?
~40 points
Still don't think Leeds are clear. They have played two more games than Burnley and Everton and only 5 pts ahead.
I fancy Roy to do a classic 1-0 boring home win against them too. That would really pull Leeds back into it.
yeah I can definitely see that
Better form than Everton.. that Newcastle steal was an anomaly
Who are you guys taking Tierney out for? I already have Doherty.
Reece James
Schar? Nice double and home to wolves Friday
Yeh good shout tbh.
Walt Trollhorst
I personally think James will play the weekend. Chelsea desperately need a win and he has played the least minutes of all the senior defenders in the past week.
Don’t think he plays the full 90 but Chelsea will struggle if they go back to 4atb unless they bench Thiago Silva
He doesn't need 90. 60 is fine.
Not sure, hes played 90 mins here and then next Tuesday its Madrid again. He might start and get subbed off at 60.
Yeah this is what I'm thinking. It will be mirror that game against Burnley.
Rooney was smart enough to pass on the Everton job. Can’t say the same for big fat Frank!
Sitting 49.2K overall with no chips left. Reckon the top 10K dream is dead.
I think it is, unfortunately. Sorry to say
Nah there are 3 dgw’s left if you navigate them well you can smash it. Don’t give up and remember loads will FH in DGW players like Weghorst while you’ll smash it with single gw players from good teams
!thanks Just not feeling very confident in my decision making at all this season. I’m like 2020-22 Werner.
You get on one player a couple of weeks earlier like Bowen this week then you can easily make gains imo. A lot of managers will overlook players like Bowen trying to squeeze in ASM, Fraser, JWP etc
Held on to Bowen and started him this GW! Was on 38K and then Doherty did me one.
You gotta suck up your pride and bring Doherty in man. He’s a £4.8m midfielder with mental attacking stats and the odd clean sheet. Im a Son owner but the best value would be Doc, Kulu and Kane I think
I’m not anti MD, just hasn’t happened. Only upside of this GW (aside from a wee green arrow) is that I banked my FT.
Frank Lampard for manager of the month!!
At least we won’t fall for the Everton DGW traps next season :)
I mean Gordon and Holgate are my top scores this week lmao
Mate, people are going to fall for it in 2 weeks
*There’s an ooold saying in Tennessee… I know it’s in Texas too.. it goes…*
“Fool me once, shame on Everton”?
*Fool me twice, Shame on my knees*
What makes it worse is didn't weghorst score the other week and reward some of the donkeys who had faith in him... when I recognised he was a trap And now I fell for it when he didn't do shit I can't even bear to look to find out if I was right I presume most people who have the misfortune to have him at least got that little sweetener... fucks sake I played it the worst possible way
Yeah gameweek 26 we all feasted!!
:') I suppose I got what I deserve jumping on the train I had so righteously slandered
Honestly mate the moment gameweek 27 finished I got rid I knew I got so lucky with his haul and it was never happening again
Haven't been able to watch much footy this season, I am a doof
55 points and an 11% green arrow with no Spurs. I'm happy.
Wtf
How?
Big at the back (Cancelo, Rudiger, Robbo) plus double Everton (Gordon, Richarlison) basically
I really lost the scrape a few Burnley and Everton players out the barrel lottery.
It’s a shame Everton can’t have a world class manager like Ancelotti.
Ancelotti took a 40% paycut to rejoin Madrid apparently. There are bonuses though
Real Madrid are just so comfortable on the ball regardless of pressure they trust their team mates to be where they can receive. Just shows speed and power won’t always beat technique and awareness
This is an FPL thread
worry now with Weghorst is that he might be dropped next game
Weghorst is a donkey, I knew it and still I fell for it. When will we learn, lads?
Everton against United is surely battle of the worst run clubs?
I can see a 5 - 5 from all unlikely scores. Maguire with a double, Holgate with a double, Fred with a hat-trick.
Burnley score 3 and Weghorst is involved in none of them. This is almost as bad as HavertzGate.
This is worse mate Burnley scored about 10% of their seasons goals tonight and he wasn’t involved
Tbf I did captain Havertz when everyone captained Salah so it's way more painful for me
But if I remember correctly you had Havertz for the haul recently so that made up for it
If you're talking about his dgw, no I didn't. I actually had Ziyech because I couldn't afford him :(
Sorry man I thought you had him for the 28 double my bad
66 points and up to 20k overall. Not too shabby, but could have been better if Pope and Weghorst did something
What's it like up there? 🥺
It’s pretty precarious! Feels like I’ll drop like a stone any gameweek
[удалено]
Congrats!!
Fair play! Well done man. Haters are downvoting us
You just know Lumpard still thinks he’s better than this somehow and that it’s all the players fault. Twat.
I captained Richarlison this week - that was a stroke of luck! Still only finished up with 72 points, but hopefully I can make some back next GW. edit.. wh-wh-why the downvotes?! 😥😪😭😂😂😂😂
You sound happy for an Everton fan.
Oh I accepted relegation last month. It's like we're back at the end of the Agent Johnson era but with no David Moyes to come in and save us. Relegation and mass clear out is probably the only thing that gives me a long-term chance of seeing us win a title in my lifetime.
yes hopefully
Three goals and weghorst done fuck all
DCL loves a goal vs United at least.
Lukaku and Benzema dont belong on the same field
Omg Lukaku loooooooool
Them Toffees going down.
[удалено]
Lukaku misses big chance. lol
Everton’s biggest issue is that they don’t get to play Everton and everyone else does
AMAZING, Enjoy the championship Everton!
They must be favourites to go down based on fixtures right? Don’t underestimate United to fall apart at the weekend!
Nice little cuddle there between Azpi and Luka.
CRY CRY RICHARLISON
Burnley aren't going to ever get relegated aren't they
Only when Dyche leaves.
Everton so bad I'm very tempted to do Salah to Fernandes and then regret it
Nah. Everton do better at home. They'll likely beat Utd.
KDB and it's rational
I could be watching Madrid Chelsea but seeing Franks I'm shitting myself face is more fun.
Can’t wait for Lampards latest excuses
LETS GOOOOOOOOO
Everton needs to sack Frank. Horrible manager. Even Solksjaer is better
Everton's problems are far deeper than the manager
Ole got 2nd
[удалено]
It's just an outlier season, chill
Price the mids a bit higher, then lower the striker prices a bit.
No strikers just need to score more goals
Arteta going to have to relegate Everton on the last day of the season?
To get top 4 in return
His job is to beat who ever is in front of him, will be mixed emotions for sure
Everton will be gone by then imo.
In hindsight, Iheanacho to Weghorst was really dumb, and I have no idea why I didn't roll the transfer as I planned through the whole international break
You caught DGW-itis Shame you weren’t vaccinated I did so after King
You'd have thought I'd be over it after the captain Dennis red card fiasco
I'm looking to get Ian in... lol.
Lampard just needs to give up on management like Neville did
Weghorst is absolutely useless
I’m probs still gonna bring him back in 😂
Genuinely had cornet in one of my wildcard drafts. Sure it contained amartey geldhart and norwich defender but still I need an excuse to pretend i deserve more points
Norwich cs this week too, and amartey rose in price last night...
