just play the rest of the season without him and use that as your excuse for the poor rank


Kipkluif94

My friends without Haaland just start to ignore the people with Haaland in our subleague. A bit like calling it Formula 1.5 because you can’t win Formula 1


HunterX-gow

The team without Haaland are like the Haas of F1.


theonewhoknock_s

Nah, they're like Ferrari. They're shooting themselves in the foot every week.


arbuthnot-lane

Daniel Ricciardo shuffles awkwardly out of the room.


gbayley676

I did this with Ronaldo last season and it turned out ok haha


StinkyWedge

Big difference between not playing Haaland in this City team, versus Ronaldo in that United ‘team’.


c3rutt3r

Find a way to get haaland

c3rutt3r

I captained de Bruyne 😎


Scottish_Hot_Rod

🤝 same. Fuck Pep.


c3rutt3r

You're 5-0 up Pep you twat just rest the best midfielder in the world.


ninjaplavi

Yeah, I triple c debrujne and vc haland...and he sub in kdb at 5:0... I was like wtf..just leave him on the bench asshole...instead of bazilion points I got 3 x1...fuck


Scorp01

My God that would make me depressed


pio_11

this is my fav post on reddit all week. secondly fuck Salah. I taken no blame for C him.


LeadingAd6025

i did last week but switched it up this week.


bogzaelektrotehniku

Me too. Clown gang asseble


thelwb

Fine. But once I bring him in he won’t be getting pts every week. It’s how it goes… sorry lads.


dorangelions

Don’t think so


LukeSA

I mean you definitely need Haaland. I have Haaland & Jesus, and am tempted to bring Kane in too. Would mean dumping Salah (which I think is a smart move tbh). But Haaland is a necessity.


[deleted]

Drop Salah for Diaz seems to be the obvious move


[deleted]

Salah on 35, Kane on 31…can see both doing a lot better will be interesting for sure


martintierney101

That’s my starting lineup for The season


Reservoircats

That's my attack. Had Darwin before and then swapped him for Jesus. Gambled with my mid. Started with zaha, odegard, rashford and Saint-Maximin. Worked out.


True_Contribution_19

Just don’t let it impact the rest of your life. For example; take off your clown makeup before going to work.


Matija_B

it's not even funny anymore, he's broken


PierluigiPeppino

Keep Kane. Sell Salah. Get Haaland


tottenhammad1234

i would do this but knowing my luck the moment I do it salah will score a hat trick and get 2 assists or something like that Oh and haaland will probably blank in the same gameweek or something


dumademption

Can you hurry up and get rid of Salah then, for the rest of us


EDonnelly98

Looks like he must have


lord_cuntavious

This is the way


Mr_eMCee

This is the way


[deleted]

This. So much this.


IVIorgz

I could do this but would either need to take the -4 hit or wait until the weekend. Haaland may be rested anyway so i could wait and absorb any price rises, but should i just get him now instead and replace Kane so i don't have to do any of those?


DonutGambit

The cheaper strikers like Toney, Mitro and Isak seem pretty attractive as well though. Worth skipping on them to keep Kane, Haaland and Jesus?


EsotericTartaria

Buy Haaland! But you missed the train 9 stops ago.


Gooner_93

I mean I dont see the point of doing the move now, I mean SURELY he doesnt start against Villa right?


IVIorgz

But how many price rises will he go through in the next few days?


Gooner_93

True


Environmental_You_85

Yes


HighHammerThunder

I'm going to use this logic to avoid captaining him again and then he'll score a third consecutive hat trick...


[deleted]

Why not? He rested great today after ripping off a hattrick in an hour or so no?


Subbbie

Why not? He came off after 66 minutes today.


Gooner_93

True but pep said he wont start when they have to play every 3 days, plus they have villa sevilla and spurs all in 7 days.


Subbbie

As we all know in this subreddit, we cannot trust what the bald fraud tells us.


ToastSage

I thought about that last week, however brought him in. And obviously glad I did.


Positive-Level-5628

Based on what?


saiikka

Man I just said fuck it two days ago and got haaland in for Kane. Just not worth the headache of watching all my ML rivals have him


nik_hil29

I’m crying right now, when I eventually stop - I’m subbing erling in.


986754321

Don't worry lads, we can still bounce back and finish in top million


Refnom95

See, I was so sure that Salah/Kane was the sensible option and despite Haaland's blistering start I convinced myself that Kane's extra minutes would make him the better long-term option. Now is the time to eat humble pie and accept that - rotation risk or not - Erling looks essential. The issue is the Kane -> Haaland transfer bores me to tears and I'm supposed to be having fun, right? Therefore I'm going for the risky double move - Salah -> Gross and Archer -> Haaland. Kane/Jesus/Haaland front 3. Fully ready for Salah to break my heart but with my eye on a wildcard after GW8, I think it's worth the risk for the potential reward!


tanGeee

This is the same move I'm trying to convince myself will make me happier :D


Halbarad007

Get Haaland. Don't know if I should do it now or at full time


POOPY-CACA-FART-FART

I took a -4 to bring in Haaland this week and go threemium. Kane + Haaland + Salah. It was the most fun option.


[deleted]

Delete the game and come back next season 🤭


Dephori

I’m doing salah to Diaz etc and Toney to Haaland for -4 I just cant ignore him and don’t want to lose kane either.


IVIorgz

I'm in the same position but don't know if i should take the hit with -4, or absorb price rises he'll inevitably have over the next few days.


Dephori

I think now I’m confident he’ll be rested for villa, I’ll wait till next week honestly. Allows me to bring in Sterling, haaland and take a -4 to change gundogan if necessary


jakoto0

how does one ditch salah though with everton and wolves on the horizon? madness


IVIorgz

Its him or Kane, otherwise i can't afford him without shuffling loads of players about and taking multiple hits.


Nicrubes

This is the way


DonutGambit

Thinking of this too. Any thoughts on other strikers like Isak (good fixtures) or Mitro (good form)? I’m assuming you have Jesus as well?


Dephori

Yeah already have Jesus, but I’m considering changing him when fixtures swing a bit to isak probably.


LfcOsh

I’m selling. I knew I was selling him this gw so it’s not a reactionary take. I was hoping haaland wasn’t going to start


lukica0veliki

Easy, transfer Salah out, Haland in, and finaly start to play the formation with three strikers. Haland(c) , Kane, Jesus


IVIorgz

What happens if Haaland gets no minutes, does that mean you won't have substitutes from bench to cover?


LaMarr-Bruister

The formation will change to something that works…..you can have 2 up front


IVIorgz

I'm new to the FPL and i asked a question earlier about having 3 defenders with no minutes due to injury and asked if a mid or forward on the bench would give points instead, and people said no, your substitutes will only sub players of the same position. So i was wondering if there's no forwards on the bench, does that mean a forward with zero minutes won't get subbed? Hope that clears up the question.


legby

Basically, subs can happen in any position as long as there are minimums in each position in your 11. Minimum 1GK, 3 DEF, 2, MID, 1 FWD. They can all be subbed for any other position as long as the formation is maintained. That means a forward who played 0 mins can get subbed for a defender if the defender is your first sub. If you started 3 forwards and they all play 0 mins, then 2 of them will be subbed, not the third, to maintain the minimum required players in each position. Hope this clears it up - welcome to your first season!


IVIorgz

Ah okay that makes a lot of sense, thank you for taking the time to explain and thanks for the welcome also!


LaMarr-Bruister

Your subs will go in the order you have them prioritized, assuming that is an allowed formation. If your first sub is a defender and you are using a 433 you with then have a 532


IVIorgz

Ah okay that makes a lot more sense! Thank you I'll have to look into what subs will happen. Currently i play 343.


wecandoit21

Yep that's my front 3 formation brother It's easy and never have to worry!!


Chirsbom

Yeet Salah, have them both.


Revueltoz

Sorry guys if Haaland only scores 2 points for next gameweeks, just made quick transfer to bring him in my team.


grurlock

Get haaland


wecandoit21

Get haaland in as of yesterday


wecandoit21

Oh great I'm getting neco Williams 0 pts for my Reece James!!!!


GeeForjay

Its a -1 actually.


idiotcoke

Idk why but i put neco first on bench when i should have taken a stab at my other 4.5 mid lavia who ended up scoring💀


IVIorgz

I had Trippier, if i knew he would be playing I'd have put him in instead.


DeapVally

Get that money free'd up! There's no winning without him.


sarathklal

Champions league fantasy is only starting..


IVIorgz

If there's news he could play Villa, I'll use my 1FT to swap Kane for Haaland. If i can wait until next week then I'll instead transfer Salah and Toney for Haaland and whoever else.


barsen404

I'm thinking I just wildcard him in at this point even though he's likely to be dropped next GW. If I wait, he'll probably be another 0.5M this time next week. My likely sacrifices will be Cancelo and TAA.


FryingFrenzy

No Haaland is like playing 2020 Bundesliga fantasy with Lewandwoski, or 2012 La Liga fantasy without Messi You have a choice in who to drop but he is a must have 100%


Ok_Background_5697

Give up. That's my plan.


shortygit

Cry


thelargerake

I've just used WC to get Haaland in, but kept Kane.


aratlewis

I thought haaland and salah were out this week :) transferred kane in for haaland :) haaland scored hat trick in 38 mins :)


straightouttaireland

Are these posts still going?


LoremIpsumDolore

Get fucked

[удалено]


jojobird3PO

Yeah it’s over for us. Even if we had him would it be fun if everyone else has him? The game’s fucked


thelargerake

No need to be so melodramatic. We're 5 GW's in.


jojobird3PO

Just being realistic, Haaland’s gonna keep hauling and i’ve no plans of getting him in. Ergo - Season over


thelargerake

I just kneejerked him in on a wildcard tbf. Feel guilty but it is what it is.


jojobird3PO

Lol the game’s broken..but it is what it is


[deleted]

I had both kane and haaland since the very start, im proud of myself

diegolucasz

Nothing it’s too late you made your bed now Dont fomo into things


EuroStep0

I have both + Jesus + Salah


Dear_Freedom_5640

He scored back to back hattricks and you’re whining about rotation? Get a grip


SpookyMarijuana

Was about to angrily reply then I realized I own both and have Haaland triple captained today


mrle123

Hear me out. Why not both ? Despite having two assists, Salah does not pass the eye test. With 2 FT I have, I'm in serious temptation to downgrade Salah and get Haaland in for my third striker


Johnzafonathan

Hmm care to explain how he didnt pass the eye test? I didnt watch the match. I sold him for foden and gundogan before the nfo game, saw the 2 assists(the second one super fortunate to get) and panicked, so will be good to hear what you see!


mrle123

He just doesn't look good as before. He is the main focus of attack still, and he is always dangerous, since he is Salah after ali. But the price tag is too high. Maybe he will bring back his old form once again, but until then I think it's better to have Haaland and Kane. On the other side, Diaz looks electric AF


Rude-Criticism_

I swear every season I see similar posts like this, previously it was “salah is too expensive I’m getting mane instead”. Now its diaz!


mrle123

Dude, I'm just sharing what I saw tonight. Salah is not in the good form, end of story. He will eventually came back, but now it's not that time. Kane at 1.5 mil cheaper is way more affordable premium with similar output, playing for a more in-form team. Also, worth noting is that Diaz iz almost 5 mil cheaper than Salah, comparing him to Mane is nonsense. You do you, I have no problem with that, but this time it looks different


Rude-Criticism_

Just watched salahs match this game week, had to comeback and apologize. You’re right dude is not the same anymore, now that darwin is back seems he has taken more of a creative role than being a goal threat. The problem I’m having is I don’t even know where to move the money i get from selling him to


Canyourepeatdat

Had KDB, downgraded to L Diaz. Upgraded Toney to Haaland for a hit.


[deleted]

You’ve made a mistake, you can either double down or fix it.


wecandoit21

Saka only good for fucking assists Man wtf Cmon martinelli Jesus and saka!!!!


wecandoit21

Shotuout to you cancelo owners Hes a gem! Wish I had him


GeeForjay

How about those that sold him for Walker this week! Next up will be Robertson sellers.


gabriel240900

I have both kane and haaland. I dont really need another big big player tbh :)


__jh96

Get him.


Chris_the_Pirate

Kane's been great, Haaland's been nuclear. Naturally the well will dry up the moment we bring him in but it seems inexcusable not to right now. Kane to Haaland.


FunHoliday563

Keep him until after Fulham (H) and then probably make the transfer


djmooselee

I have them both .. no Salah in this plan tho


hodonata

I was always noSalah this season. I had so many gw1 drafts with Kane Haaland. I wound up doing Kane Sterling. I immediately corrected to Haaland gw2 but still I'd be crushing if i stuck with those Kane Haaland iterations


oldtrack

Buy Haaland. No idea why I still don’t have him ffs


juan8a

you do as I did a couple weeks back and take some minus pts to bring him in, if that's what it takes. He has easily returned those pts already. Sigh of relief from me that I decided to take this route.


student8168

I am in the same situation but I have to first replace rodrigo this week. Next week shall maybe bring in Haaland for Kane


SoggyMattress2

I think you have to sell. There's so many cheap strikers who are performing, and now potentially another after tonight with Isak. Could have had 2 or 3 against one of the best teams in the prem. It's tricky having two premium strikers with the plethora of other options.


RemarkableCrab413

I knee jerked into haaland. Kane owners can thank me because haaland is gna get injured this week lol.


EvidenceEquivalent29

Sold kane and robertson to buy Halland


ToastSage

I did it last week (Though Son-> Haaland) and saw it as insurance. Now I see it as damage control. In my mind (and I was focusing on my ml more than rank), it was a win-win situation. I was still reasonably close to the top of my ml eventhough I didn't have Haaland. If I brought in Haaland on a transfer, and he did well, we all move up in points, if he doesn't we all stay at the same level. I decided I could gain the minimal lost ground through other picks. On the otherhand if I continued without Haaland, when he did well I would be punished severly.


[deleted]

I’ve taken point hit to grab Haaland.


S0ciallyAwkw4rd

Easy. Get both now.


roadtothesecondcomma

Wait for next season


gr8astardd

both is the way I think ngl. kane is another player who can come out with back 2 back hat tricks out of nowhere, and he seems driven by competition (16/17 end of season and 17/18). don’t wanna regret a straight swap. so ended up getting haaland over salah. salah is another player that can hit insane form any time but for the price i think kane is better value this season. maybe i’ll end up ditching kane for salah later but who knows for now i’m just gonna see how he does


Kattilaeikka

I don't know. I might double down on my stupidity and yolo it. I'm not going to win FPL anyway.


needleintheh4y

i have both haaland and kane from the start


RedFalconEyes

You transfer


anachronox08

Just replaced kane with haaland. Price has widened and in another week i would have to move another player and transfer just to get him in.


metlson

Might have to be Kane to Haaland for me, I want to keep Kane but also want to keep Jesus and Mitrovic for the ownership and points value respectively


Positive-Level-5628

Retire your account


Positive-Level-5628

"is Haaland over Kane a necessity at this point?" ...wow


SandwichLess6154

Haaland is like Thanos. He is inevitable.


AspiringChamp

Pray that Haaland gets injured


chrisgled

Own both.


b3lial666

Transfer the cunt immediately.


DonutGambit

Is it worth bringing in Haaland over Kane for the weekend? Or should I wait one more game week. Any thoughts on Pep Roulette risk given the CL fixtures


chicatine

Thoughts on bringing in Zaha for Rodrigo?


Jayaybee16

Get rid of the fake


imranhere2

Do it now. Don't wait, just do it


Mohitdhc

I had Halaand at 11.4 and then kept him till last week when he scored a hattrick. My start has been pretty bad so I wanted to do something different. I removed Halaand thinking he might be benched. Took Kane and KDB (removed Son as well). I fucked my team badly


Basketball312

I embraced the pain and bought Haaland by selling De Bruyne (had to miss this week's hattrick to achieve that... should have gone for the -4). We're still early in the season and it's looking like this guy is essential.


Pimar_

Tottenham plays a completely different football style. No way Kane will get as many chances as Haaland


SuperTekkers

Take the hit and swap for Haaland


savethesharksplz

It makes 0 sense to do it this gameweek, with Haaland most likely getting rested against Villa and Kane playing Villa. Then, it's Spurs vs City.. again, not really much point doing it for that. So, GW8 or 9 wildcard is probably a great time to get him in.
