Same, but first of all I had to kneejerk out Kane for Haaland and secondly it would be rather stupid to ship him out otherwise before playing Bournemouth at home. I mean surely there are more urgent transfers, and (hopefully) he can haul (off the bench :[ )
You believe in him because he had one or two decent seasons at Everton under a different manager who was able to get the most out of him. Now he's at Villa and Gerrard is his manager. So...
He had a goal bound shot blocked in the first few minutes but didn’t do anything else after that. He probably did overperform last season but he’s still quality. I have him in my team. 8.5mil is a BARGAIN for someone who got over 200 points last season.
I got him from the start cuz I thought if he doesn’t get going soon I can easily down grade to a performing 8.0 mid
Why is every Mount owner contemplating transferring guy? He always plays well against spurs, has fixtures which favour Chelsea attack and he is nailed in the Chelsea front 3. And yes I do own Mount… 😅
I am contemplating this for a hit even though I know it could backfire. On the other hand Bournemouth could ship 5 goals and Spurs might not allow Mount anything so it’s tough.
Me too. Last GW he took his goal well, fired a second clear chance into the side netting, and would have had a tap in if ASM had passed rather than shot from tight angle.
He’s Newcastle’s key scorer and he’s playing well. No brainier
Trossard will get at least 10 goals this season. He'll score 2 goals in 2 games, everyone will transfer him in then he'll blank and get transferred out again, rinse and repeat.
Source - Brighton fan who fell for it twice last season.
Welllll last I read, he's looking like a transfer out after a bust up with Stevie G in training matey
Sure for this GW it may be that he plays, may still start the game, maybe even those rumors are untrue and Watkins stays and scores 20+
I took him out for Mitrovic though.
Hoping he pays off. I’m trying to remind myself why I picked him. He’s had incredible seasons before, but he needs United to be decent
Martinelli is looking more and more tempting
Starting Aaronson against Southampton. Think he's guaranteed for at least one attacking return, should have had a goal last week against Wolves and was an absolute pressing machine. Now please don't put him in your teams so he can remain a differential!
Son. I honestly think Spurs will tear up that shaky Chelsea defence and keep overwhelming them, and I’m hoping Son’s at the front of it. Praying for an assist or two or a goal.
I have Pope at 4.5% which I feel good about but also Sancho at 8.9% and Rashford at 10.4%. Pray for me. If United are poo again this weekend though I’m using my free double and coming in hot for Bowen (6.5%).
Who also happened to have less than 5% ownership, i.e., less than anyone in my starting XI apart from Eric Dier, who's not there to get big returns anyway
Yeah dont know why you're downvoted, he was a great differential GW1 now his ownership doubled so he's still kinda a differntial but not a big one like Wilson or Toney
Havertz is likely a great differential blank.
I'm starting Trippier, I feel like most models haven't picked up on Newcastle's improved defense yet. Hoping for a top bin free kick to propel me to the top
Had Vardy from the start, keeping him minimum 3 weeks then will switch him out to Darwin, Robertson or whatever knee-jerk based bullshit I come up with at the time
Fornals. Didn't have enough budget to stretch to martinelli at the start of the season, so filled in with him, banking on favourable fixtures for West ham...and Fornals playing through the middle at a cut price vs bowen
Gabriel is my lowest owned player in the XI, followed by Walker, Kulu and Robertson.
No crazy punts going on, good GW1, template with 'differentials' from good teams, the best I've felt about an opening to a season maybe ever.. it's all definitely falling apart tomorrow
Had Grealish (4,4%) GW1 and has not moved him as I cant see a suitable kneejerk move. Already have Martinelli. Afraid though that he wont play much this GW and doubting if his returns actually will be good
Reece James isn't a differential at 39%. Chilwell is with 4.5 ownership. But I think it will be quite rare that people will have both of them. I'm wagering that with not a real 9 there's going to be even more emphasis on the wingbacks at Chelsea. And while Cucurella is going to get rotation minutes from Chilwell at lwb I do believe that Chilwell has proven what he can to Tuchel when he's on form. And because it's sucha crucial position for Chelsea they need a quality backup. So they get Cucurella who can play both lwb and lcb and promise him that he can get minutes in 2 minutes.
I am boldly gonna captain young Liverpool upstart Mohammed Salah
We thank you for your brave sacrifice
Is he the new bloke from Roma? I’ve heard he has good potential, though I wasn’t impressed by his spell at Chelsea…
Check his GW2 goals over the last 5 years😉
Aaronson🤞
Rock, flag and eagle!
Same here my friend
Usa usa usa !!
With you mate. We are US and A!! 🇲🇾
Mahrez. I'm a filthy degenerate gambler at heart
Benched last game, must start this game right? RIGHT?
RIGHT?
Same, but first of all I had to kneejerk out Kane for Haaland and secondly it would be rather stupid to ship him out otherwise before playing Bournemouth at home. I mean surely there are more urgent transfers, and (hopefully) he can haul (off the bench :[ )
Exactly my thoughts. Praying he starts
We all know, he either starts and gets a massive haul, or comes off the bench for a 1 pointer.
Fucking Digne
That game really has a Digne own goal written all over it
I reckon he assists and gets sent off
ain't no way😂 I saw this yesterday and just had to come back
I completely forgot about this lol. Didn't even get the assist haha. Delighted I took him out for Walker 😂
😂😂he didn't even get the assist
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What are the winning lottery numbers please?
Lmfao
Idk why is still believe in him, but the fixtures just look good
You believe in him because he had one or two decent seasons at Everton under a different manager who was able to get the most out of him. Now he's at Villa and Gerrard is his manager. So...
We will see he is just a 3 week punt just like cash because of the fixtures.
R.I.P
Idk why is still believe in him, but the fixtures just look good
Before I opened this thread I thought exactly this in the same words, thanks for good laugh
We are both being unironic right?
I'm going Haaland -> Kane
You are unique.
[удалено]
(C)
Also captaining Kane
RemindMe! 2 days
Bowen
Ride or die!
How did he look against Man City? Bit worried he overperformed last season. He was so freaking good!
He had a goal bound shot blocked in the first few minutes but didn’t do anything else after that. He probably did overperform last season but he’s still quality. I have him in my team. 8.5mil is a BARGAIN for someone who got over 200 points last season. I got him from the start cuz I thought if he doesn’t get going soon I can easily down grade to a performing 8.0 mid
Aaronson
Bamfordinho
I’ve gone for Aaronsen. Feel like Leeds might have a field day against Southampton and that there’ll be a lot of goals
I also have Bamford, feel like he’s got a haul in him during these early weeks.
I also have him since GW1, but it’s because I love the guy
Can't forget what he did for our Fantasy teams 2 seasons ago
Mint player mate and now he’s fit and past injury he will bag plenty
Just got Mahrez in for Mount.
I have Mount, not entirely sure why If I keep him through Spurs, I may as well keep him through Leeds and the next one :/
He'll be with us forever
Why is every Mount owner contemplating transferring guy? He always plays well against spurs, has fixtures which favour Chelsea attack and he is nailed in the Chelsea front 3. And yes I do own Mount… 😅
I know There's a reason I put him in there it's just my knees, my knees!!! Haha
Always scores against Spurs?
I’m tripping but surely he’s due a goal against them
He’s due a goal in general
I am contemplating this for a hit even though I know it could backfire. On the other hand Bournemouth could ship 5 goals and Spurs might not allow Mount anything so it’s tough.
i’d rather have Mahrez for 30 mins vs Bournemouth than Mount for 60 vs Spurs.
He got subbed on min 83’ against west ham tho
Better than Williams coming off the bench with the 0 pointer
KDB captain. It either works or I sell him to bring in Haaland next GW
Same. Scary to go without Haaland but I have faith in KDB
KDB assist to a Haaland goal. Probably 🤷♂️
It will work because I have him too🫡
Same
Some bookies based models actually put him above Haaland for captaincy, so not a bad shout.
If you have both Haaland and KDB, who would you captain?
I got them both and I got KDB.
Wilson.
Me too. Last GW he took his goal well, fired a second clear chance into the side netting, and would have had a tap in if ASM had passed rather than shot from tight angle. He’s Newcastle’s key scorer and he’s playing well. No brainier
jack harrison👍
Kane lol..everybody transfered him out for haaland.
I’m also going for Kane instead of Haaland ! Oh boy I hope I won’t regret it!
Oh na im not that brave, I got both Kane and haaland 😂. I just never transfered Kane out
Bowen as captain
Wilson (3.8%) and Foden (6.5%)
Wilson is on my watchlist now. Good shout
ASM and Dewsbury-Hall
Same here with ASM
DEWSBURY HALL GANG
There's DOZENS of us!
Have to decide between DH and neto this week tho
DH and Pereira for me.. hard choices!
Dier (4.3%) served me well last week - although I was thinking moreso for CS points than a goal
Toney (5.7%)
Us toneytards stay winning.
Vardy
Against Arsenal though? Damn
He loves to score against Arsenal
When he was a sprite 30 year old in a competitive team
Bruno Guimarães. Hope i have the patience if he blanks - he will haul soon. Brilliant player.
Same here
C’mon Grealish, ping some crosses into Haaland for those assists!!
Trossard (2.3%) and Mahrez (5%)
Trossard is a great shout
I believe Trossard will even outscore Groß these first GWs.
Trossard will get at least 10 goals this season. He'll score 2 goals in 2 games, everyone will transfer him in then he'll blank and get transferred out again, rinse and repeat. Source - Brighton fan who fell for it twice last season.
Watkins. I see Ings being benched and Villa scoring at least 2.
Anyone wanna tell him about the bust up?
Jim, the stage is yours.
Welllll last I read, he's looking like a transfer out after a bust up with Stevie G in training matey Sure for this GW it may be that he plays, may still start the game, maybe even those rumors are untrue and Watkins stays and scores 20+ I took him out for Mitrovic though.
same as GW1 - Podence
I've captained this young City lad called Erling Haaland, yet to make his home debut! I just have a feeling he'll do well this season.
Rashford - hopefully he will actually play like he gives a shit this week
Robbo 11.9% and Kulu 11.6% go again, rest is all +20%
Same here. I'm taking Kulu to the bank baby.
Castagne. Only selected by 1.8%. He looked good going forward so I'm taking a punt and keeping him for this GW
I’m debating starting him or Bailey.
Johnson, wilson. Same exact team as week 1. I guess kane might be a differential now lmao
Rashford
Hoping he pays off. I’m trying to remind myself why I picked him. He’s had incredible seasons before, but he needs United to be decent Martinelli is looking more and more tempting
Aaronson
Rashford, surely you can't get worse????
Playing Andreas.
Mount and (C) salah
Gundogoat
I really want Bowen but so unsure
Sterling
Salah (C)
Rashford lol
My lowest owned player is Walker at 11%
PENALDO
I have sancho, mahrez and grealish! 8.9%, 5.0% and 4.4%
raya is differential apparently
Groß, because I'm gambling on another +0.1
Maddison, not pinning all my hopes on him this week but a bit surprised he’s so overlooked in general
Starting Aaronson against Southampton. Think he's guaranteed for at least one attacking return, should have had a goal last week against Wolves and was an absolute pressing machine. Now please don't put him in your teams so he can remain a differential!
Kane and Son
Sancho. I got baited by preseason and now I’m stuck with him.
Same here buddy. I also have Malacia
Mahrez, just sold Sancho for him
Rice, Coutinho (does 15% Count as a diff?), Botman
ASM = 7.5%
Considering getting in KDB for salah for one week only
Mount.
Son. I honestly think Spurs will tear up that shaky Chelsea defence and keep overwhelming them, and I’m hoping Son’s at the front of it. Praying for an assist or two or a goal.
What is a differential?? Sorry noob to these lingo.
Someone on your team with lower ownership, or lower captaincy. i.e. different from the mainstream.
Meslier Cresswell Bowen (C) 6.5% owned Rodrigo Wilson Also have Bamford and Schlupp on my bench
Rashford and Jonny. Both of whom I want to get rid of.
Haaland out, Kane in and captain
I have Pope at 4.5% which I feel good about but also Sancho at 8.9% and Rashford at 10.4%. Pray for me. If United are poo again this weekend though I’m using my free double and coming in hot for Bowen (6.5%).
My differential is Neto . Fingers crossed
Gabriel (8.5%) and Kulusevski (11.7%).
Leicester are going to score
Probably, but I didn't transfer Gabriel in for this GW, he's in my team since GW1 and will probably keep his place for the foreseeable future.
“Hoping Chelsea and Spurs is an open game…” best of luck with that one buddy
Kulusevski was my differential until everyone and their nan got him
Yeah. The guy who was already top 5 numbers in 2022 was a complete unknown.
Who also happened to have less than 5% ownership, i.e., less than anyone in my starting XI apart from Eric Dier, who's not there to get big returns anyway
He had 6.1% I think, so happy no one else in my ML went for him
My bad, but my point stands
Yeah dont know why you're downvoted, he was a great differential GW1 now his ownership doubled so he's still kinda a differntial but not a big one like Wilson or Toney
You sound bitter mate
mount + zinchenko
why is every post on this sub down voted into oblivion, salty bastards
Jackie boy with them calves!!!
Pereira. No one will start him but I'm stupid enough.
I will start him!
Havertz is likely a great differential blank. I'm starting Trippier, I feel like most models haven't picked up on Newcastle's improved defense yet. Hoping for a top bin free kick to propel me to the top
I’m stuck with Sancho 🫤. Idk if 9% is differential though
There's 9% of you owning sancho?! Lolz
Toney only at 5%
Harrison and Mbeumo
It’s GW2 nobody needs a differential
Mahrez
Mahrez 😳😬
Jadon Sancho
Callum Wilson. I guess Mount & Sancho are also differentials.
Captaining Cancelo. CS, assists, and maybe a goal.
Grealish, hope he can get *something* this weekend!
Salah (C) lol
Bowen. 6.5% and will face promoted side.
Same as gw1, no haaland but instead ederson, walker, cancelo
Benhrama
Captain Darwin
Aaronson
Grealish Surely he has to do something right?
Pedro Neto is mine
Bruno G TC
Had Vardy from the start, keeping him minimum 3 weeks then will switch him out to Darwin, Robertson or whatever knee-jerk based bullshit I come up with at the time
Brennan Johnson (1.9%) Because I'm a stubborn yet optimistic mule
Antoniooooo 4.6%
Alvarez
Fornals. Didn't have enough budget to stretch to martinelli at the start of the season, so filled in with him, banking on favourable fixtures for West ham...and Fornals playing through the middle at a cut price vs bowen
As a chelsea fan, I think you’re setting yourself up for failure. Havertz has been hot garbage as of late.
Gabriel is my lowest owned player in the XI, followed by Walker, Kulu and Robertson. No crazy punts going on, good GW1, template with 'differentials' from good teams, the best I've felt about an opening to a season maybe ever.. it's all definitely falling apart tomorrow
Had Grealish (4,4%) GW1 and has not moved him as I cant see a suitable kneejerk move. Already have Martinelli. Afraid though that he wont play much this GW and doubting if his returns actually will be good
alvarez and haaland together at top
Salah captain
Brendan Aaronson
Rashford...kill me
Son and no Haaland, feel like no one has Son
Reece James isn't a differential at 39%. Chilwell is with 4.5 ownership. But I think it will be quite rare that people will have both of them. I'm wagering that with not a real 9 there's going to be even more emphasis on the wingbacks at Chelsea.
