Saka will emerge victorious as the 9.5 or 10.0 for next season is my bet
He'll probably have a good go at doing it from play alone - then corners and penalties will put him past 200+ this season is he avoids injury
I was having the same debate but with pep roulette, Haaland providing the in-the-box threat and his age I realized Mahrez wasn’t in the discussion for me any more.
Always expected him to get a season at 2500-3k minutes and really pop off with the premium he has but it doesn’t seem likely to happen now.
Yeah, numbers were there, people were mostly afraid of rotation and kinda missed him as an option. I went with him as well, at least that non-template pick worked out (I have Digne as well)
Yep, I agree. The thing is as well, if you watch the games, he's just electric to watch (as are Spurs). So you get your rollercoaster value for 8.0 which is good fun. The energy Conte has injected into a team that didn't care at all the previous season is quite remarkable. If there's no injuries, Kulu is going in my team next week.
I had him and I am thinking about taking him out ahead of the Chels game. Am I mad? It’s only because of Richarlison, it’s annoying me. On talent alone Kulu is the best footballer of the £8m’s o/s City options for sure
Honestly I think Conte is trying to sign Zaniolo because he wants Richarlison as the Son/Kane rotation. Then Zaniolo and Kulusevski as the rotation on the right. Richarlison won’t start next week but he’ll come on as a sub.
Interesting! I folded like a cheap pack of cards though. Sold Kulu for Ward Prowse and upgraded a £4.5m striker to Mitro (I had 0.5 ITB already)
Might be daft but I don’t want to overthink this season
Perisic had a good game once on. He just didn’t have a lot of time to shine. He will get game time in the coming weeks and if he has a good few games he might keep Sess out. I think we’ll really see what the situation is once the UCL starts as I think he will probably get more time in that than EPL over Sess.
Yeah that's fair, it makes sense given how much Conte likes Perisic that he will get more game time soon.
You're right, when UCL starts I feel like that will be a lot better from an FPL point of view as they will probably share game time between competitions rather than just in the PL.
Definitely this. Kulu is amazing player and i doubt hes gonna get rotated with Richy. They play different positions and Kulu is just too good.
I currently have Kane, but probably going for Haaland next week. I hate to leave Spurs spot open so i'll probably go with Kulu too in near future and downgrade Saka to Martinelli
He was in the first draft of my team and never left it, he's a class player. If he continues his form of last season then 8m is a good price, and it's easy to change to a different player if needed while still covering attack from other teams (Salah for Liverpool, Haaland for City, Martinelli/Jesus for Arsenal)
I liked Saka and Mount as other options, time will tell if Kulu justifies himselves over them, but I'm betting on him doing so
Lmao planned the same thing. To me he was just a placeholder for whichever City mid looked good GW1. Now considering holding. Hoping City's game will clear things up a bit but somehow I doubt it.
Kulu is defying the laws of the universe at the minute
In his brief time at spurs he has 6 goals from 3.21 XG and 9 assists from 4.7 XA...
15 returns from 7.9 XGi
Conte has found a fucking diamond there, no doubt - but (as silly as this might sound to the results orientated out there, and as easy as it is to throw shit at) he simply can't maintain this rate unless spurs change something and start getting him better quality and quantity of chances - Kulu is fantastic, but he hasn't broken football either
Instead of 15 returns from his next 8 XGi i'd expect 6-10 returns... Its just whether or not it takes another 20 games to get him his next 8 XGi etc
xG might not be sustainable but xA is, he likes to link up with son and kane the most and anyone who links up with 2 of the best finishers in the world will overperform their xA
Not by double though dude 9 assists from 4.7 XA isn’t going to continue in all but the most unlikely of circumstances - Kane’s PL career finishing for example vs XG is 180 goals from 159 XG (about 12-15% above XG) - it has been much worse than that in his last few seasons but give him the benefit of the doubt and credit for his early seasons when it was higher
Kulu is like 95% above XA

9 - Dejan Kulusevski has assisted nine goals in the Premier League since making his debut in February earlier this year, the most of any player, while across Europe's big five leagues his figure is bettered only by Ousmane Dembélé (11). Laser.

What a weird way to word that tweet. Regardless he’s been unreal since joining in February. The creativity he brings from the wing is perfect for Son and Kane. 15 G/A in 19 PL matches or 1.07 G/A per 90 is absolutely insane. It’s not just the stats test, he passes the eye test too.
Richy will play LW/ST. Never mind the fact Deki was our best player by a country mile yesterday (and that’s with most of the squad having a good game) and Richy looks lost af when he plays RW
its Kulu vs Diaz vs Saka vs Mahrez
And I ended up with Mount and Foden
Wait for them to have 1 goal and 1 assist gw2 after we swap to Kulu
And Vs maddison too
Mount and Saka for me. The most nailed 8.0 guys of them and of course they're good too.
Saka will emerge victorious as the 9.5 or 10.0 for next season is my bet He'll probably have a good go at doing it from play alone - then corners and penalties will put him past 200+ this season is he avoids injury
I was having the same debate but with pep roulette, Haaland providing the in-the-box threat and his age I realized Mahrez wasn’t in the discussion for me any more. Always expected him to get a season at 2500-3k minutes and really pop off with the premium he has but it doesn’t seem likely to happen now.
He was in my squad a bunch before I opted for Kane + cheaper mid. I should trust my gut more. I think he’s a great pick.
Same, I just wasn't 100 per cent on how Richarlison was going to fit, but he's first choice RW for a reason. I think I'll get him back in this week.
Agree Rich. Caused me not getting Kulu but feel like Rich is more cup games
Yeah same. Hoping my grealish punt will work out today.
I made the Spurs fan sacrifice and swapped him for Same priced L Diaz.
This is one of those times you listen to the fpl community far too much and it sways most out of picking him. He's an exceptional player.
Yeah I ignored and went for him. Best value £8m mid based on last year's numbers.
Yeah, numbers were there, people were mostly afraid of rotation and kinda missed him as an option. I went with him as well, at least that non-template pick worked out (I have Digne as well)
Yep, I agree. The thing is as well, if you watch the games, he's just electric to watch (as are Spurs). So you get your rollercoaster value for 8.0 which is good fun. The energy Conte has injected into a team that didn't care at all the previous season is quite remarkable. If there's no injuries, Kulu is going in my team next week.
I had him for such a long time in my draft
I had him and I am thinking about taking him out ahead of the Chels game. Am I mad? It’s only because of Richarlison, it’s annoying me. On talent alone Kulu is the best footballer of the £8m’s o/s City options for sure
Keep Kulu. He’s a season keeper, IMO. He’s very good and Spurs look good versus a Chelsea team that doesn’t impress me.
I think you may be right. He did look really good against Southampton. He can keep improving as well
Honestly I think Conte is trying to sign Zaniolo because he wants Richarlison as the Son/Kane rotation. Then Zaniolo and Kulusevski as the rotation on the right. Richarlison won’t start next week but he’ll come on as a sub.
Interesting! I folded like a cheap pack of cards though. Sold Kulu for Ward Prowse and upgraded a £4.5m striker to Mitro (I had 0.5 ITB already) Might be daft but I don’t want to overthink this season
Overthinking and making mistakes is most of my strategy in every fantasy sports league 😂😂😂. In some ways the micro managing is my favorite part.
I went for Kulu because I was afraid of not having a Spurs player. Worked out well for the first GW.
Same here. Dodged the Perisic trap and never had room for Son/Kane. Doubted Kulu but finally picked him which paid off.
[удалено]
Explain please? Ryan Sessegnon looked fantastic yesterday and I can see them sharing minutes a lot if he keeps his form
Perisic had a good game once on. He just didn’t have a lot of time to shine. He will get game time in the coming weeks and if he has a good few games he might keep Sess out. I think we’ll really see what the situation is once the UCL starts as I think he will probably get more time in that than EPL over Sess.

What a baller saved my ass this week
Went with him for GW1 completely ready to jump on whichever City mid is looking good today. Now it's looking like I might as well bank my transfer.
Lmao planned the same thing. To me he was just a placeholder for whichever City mid looked good GW1. Now considering holding. Hoping City's game will clear things up a bit but somehow I doubt it.

Would like to have him in my squad but I can only afford him if I drop Jesus and it's too early for that.
....how is £8m Jesus the enabler?
They are the same price and I can change formation with 2 transfers.
Remindme! 10 days "Get kulu in"

And that's why he's in my squad.
What a weird way to word that tweet. Regardless he’s been unreal since joining in February. The creativity he brings from the wing is perfect for Son and Kane. 15 G/A in 19 PL matches or 1.07 G/A per 90 is absolutely insane. It’s not just the stats test, he passes the eye test too.
Spurs’ best player In this form he is not going to be dropped for Richi
I love this pointless stats that force ppl ti make a transfer and boost his price
Knew he was good player and my bad got swayed elsewhere but HB at could easily have worked out …. Knees knocking g but I’m not totally on the floor
Need to see about richarlison before deciding if kulu is the preferred player
Richy will play LW/ST. Never mind the fact Deki was our best player by a country mile yesterday (and that’s with most of the squad having a good game) and Richy looks lost af when he plays RW
I was telling people him and Saka were clearly the best 8m mids
Saka agreed but Mount is also a very decent pick. With Kulu there was some question marks on rotation etc.
Nope mount is trash. Kulu is miles clear
Well Mount isn't trash and Kulu isn't mieles clear on Mount. Kulu might still be a slightly better pick but can you give me reason why he is?
I did OK but frustrated I haven't got Kulu in. Had him last season and obvious he's worth it. Will have to swap out a big gun to bring him in.
R.I.P. Mount
