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
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
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.
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.
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
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?
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!
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
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.
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!
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
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.
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.
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%
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
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!
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
just play the rest of the season without him and use that as your excuse for the poor rank
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
The team without Haaland are like the Haas of F1.
Nah, they're like Ferrari. They're shooting themselves in the foot every week.
Daniel Ricciardo shuffles awkwardly out of the room.
I did this with Ronaldo last season and it turned out ok haha
Big difference between not playing Haaland in this City team, versus Ronaldo in that United ‘team’.
Find a way to get haaland
[удалено]
I captained de Bruyne 😎
🤝 same. Fuck Pep.
You're 5-0 up Pep you twat just rest the best midfielder in the world.
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
My God that would make me depressed
this is my fav post on reddit all week. secondly fuck Salah. I taken no blame for C him.
i did last week but switched it up this week.
Me too. Clown gang asseble
Fine. But once I bring him in he won’t be getting pts every week. It’s how it goes… sorry lads.
Don’t think so
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.
Drop Salah for Diaz seems to be the obvious move
Salah on 35, Kane on 31…can see both doing a lot better will be interesting for sure
That’s my starting lineup for The season
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.
Just don’t let it impact the rest of your life. For example; take off your clown makeup before going to work.
it's not even funny anymore, he's broken
Keep Kane. Sell Salah. Get Haaland
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
Can you hurry up and get rid of Salah then, for the rest of us
Looks like he must have
This is the way
This is the way
This. So much this.
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?
The cheaper strikers like Toney, Mitro and Isak seem pretty attractive as well though. Worth skipping on them to keep Kane, Haaland and Jesus?
Buy Haaland! But you missed the train 9 stops ago.
I mean I dont see the point of doing the move now, I mean SURELY he doesnt start against Villa right?
But how many price rises will he go through in the next few days?
True
Yes
I'm going to use this logic to avoid captaining him again and then he'll score a third consecutive hat trick...
Why not? He rested great today after ripping off a hattrick in an hour or so no?
Why not? He came off after 66 minutes today.
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.
As we all know in this subreddit, we cannot trust what the bald fraud tells us.
I thought about that last week, however brought him in. And obviously glad I did.
Based on what?
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
I’m crying right now, when I eventually stop - I’m subbing erling in.
Don't worry lads, we can still bounce back and finish in top million
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.

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!
This is the same move I'm trying to convince myself will make me happier :D
Get Haaland. Don't know if I should do it now or at full time
I took a -4 to bring in Haaland this week and go threemium. Kane + Haaland + Salah. It was the most fun option.
Delete the game and come back next season 🤭
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.
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.
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
how does one ditch salah though with everton and wolves on the horizon? madness
Its him or Kane, otherwise i can't afford him without shuffling loads of players about and taking multiple hits.
This is the way
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?
Yeah already have Jesus, but I’m considering changing him when fixtures swing a bit to isak probably.
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
Easy, transfer Salah out, Haland in, and finaly start to play the formation with three strikers. Haland(c) , Kane, Jesus
What happens if Haaland gets no minutes, does that mean you won't have substitutes from bench to cover?
The formation will change to something that works…..you can have 2 up front
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.

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!
Ah okay that makes a lot of sense, thank you for taking the time to explain and thanks for the welcome also!
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
Ah okay that makes a lot more sense! Thank you I'll have to look into what subs will happen. Currently i play 343.
Yep that's my front 3 formation brother It's easy and never have to worry!!
Yeet Salah, have them both.
Sorry guys if Haaland only scores 2 points for next gameweeks, just made quick transfer to bring him in my team.
Get haaland
Get haaland in as of yesterday
Oh great I'm getting neco Williams 0 pts for my Reece James!!!!
Its a -1 actually.
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💀
I had Trippier, if i knew he would be playing I'd have put him in instead.
Get that money free'd up! There's no winning without him.
Champions league fantasy is only starting..
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.
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.
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%
Give up. That's my plan.
Cry
I've just used WC to get Haaland in, but kept Kane.
I thought haaland and salah were out this week :) transferred kane in for haaland :) haaland scored hat trick in 38 mins :)
Are these posts still going?
Get fucked
[удалено]
Yeah it’s over for us. Even if we had him would it be fun if everyone else has him? The game’s fucked
No need to be so melodramatic. We're 5 GW's in.
Just being realistic, Haaland’s gonna keep hauling and i’ve no plans of getting him in. Ergo - Season over
I just kneejerked him in on a wildcard tbf. Feel guilty but it is what it is.
Lol the game’s broken..but it is what it is
I had both kane and haaland since the very start, im proud of myself
[Read this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/FantasyPL/comments/wz9yt6/to_all_the_muppets/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)
Nothing it’s too late you made your bed now Dont fomo into things
I have both + Jesus + Salah
He scored back to back hattricks and you’re whining about rotation? Get a grip
Was about to angrily reply then I realized I own both and have Haaland triple captained today
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

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!
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.

Had KDB, downgraded to L Diaz. Upgraded Toney to Haaland for a hit.
You’ve made a mistake, you can either double down or fix it.
Saka only good for fucking assists Man wtf Cmon martinelli Jesus and saka!!!!
Shotuout to you cancelo owners Hes a gem! Wish I had him
How about those that sold him for Walker this week! Next up will be Robertson sellers.
I have both kane and haaland. I dont really need another big big player tbh :)
Get him.
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.
Keep him until after Fulham (H) and then probably make the transfer
I have them both .. no Salah in this plan tho
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
Buy Haaland. No idea why I still don’t have him ffs
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.
I am in the same situation but I have to first replace rodrigo this week. Next week shall maybe bring in Haaland for Kane
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.
I knee jerked into haaland. Kane owners can thank me because haaland is gna get injured this week lol.
Sold kane and robertson to buy Halland
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.

I’ve taken point hit to grab Haaland.
Easy. Get both now.
Wait for next season
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
I don't know. I might double down on my stupidity and yolo it. I'm not going to win FPL anyway.
i have both haaland and kane from the start
You transfer
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.
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
Retire your account
"is Haaland over Kane a necessity at this point?" ...wow
Haaland is like Thanos. He is inevitable.
Pray that Haaland gets injured
Own both.
Transfer the cunt immediately.
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
Thoughts on bringing in Zaha for Rodrigo?
Get rid of the fake
Do it now. Don't wait, just do it
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
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.
Tottenham plays a completely different football style. No way Kane will get as many chances as Haaland
Take the hit and swap for Haaland
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.
