I'm having some fun, had a garbage start.
Fantasy Premier League 22/23
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Risky move I know but my dumbass brain just can't justify 13m on Salah when 6m players are scoring just as much points.
As someone else said in this thread, apart from that win against Bournemouth Liverpool haven't looked impressive at all. Leaky at the back and they were lucky to get that win against Newcastle I'd say.
Very lucky, ref will,give them four pens v Everton
Im hoping i catch the wave on Toney now everyone has binned him off .You'll be sorry
Leeds at home, Southampton away. If In that time Isak plays well and Toney doesn't then in comes Isak vs Bournemouth in the third fixture! It was hard saying no to Isak and a home debut but Palace is a tough fixture and they'll be keeping it tight. Leeds tend to be more attacking which would lead to chances for Toney. Im delving deep into my crystal ball here. Huge game for Arsenal though. They will be playing their best 11 no doubt, but Odegaard tends to play deeper, more so than Martinelli and Jesus who i will end up starting with i think, like you say.
Roll with the bus team mate
Every man with a basement and a cup of pot noodles has his own prediction model these days.
Ramsdale
Dunk, TAA, Cancelo, James
Salah, Martinelli, Diaz, Harrison
Jesus, Haaland
Subs: Ward, Williams, Andreas, Archer
Two questions:
Worth bringing in Pope for Ramsdale or roll the transfer?
Anyone I can drop for Williams?

Yeah that's an option. Just feel with WC coming into play soon I should be getting some short term high ceiling moves. Trips looks like someone I'd want given their next 7 odd games look great.
If you have nothing else to do can get in Pope. He's probably slightly better now and may get more save points. But a sideways move overall given the position.
Dunk or Harrison. Prob Dunk. Both Bou and Lei can't score (although Lei definitely have a better attack) but Neco has much better attacking threat. Dunk also good on set pieces.
I bought him as well
But will probably not start him this GW as I already have Rashy, Martinelli, Jesus. Don't like to have 4 attacking players from the same match and one of them most probavly only with a cameo (Antony).
Of course there isn’t - they’ve played two games. There’s only gut instinct, small sample size of heatmaps and the eye test to rely on. From what I saw, and what is logic, Salah should drift more to the right to make room for Darwin. Could end up both ways, but I see Darwin as more clumpsy on the feet than Firmino so less assistance and less getting into central areas for Salah imo. Then they also have to adapt to each other which could take time. On paper that should be less output for Salah than before.
compared to some other models all those numbers seem quite high. If they are to be believed then roughly all those players total output in this GW should be the sum of all those numbers in the list. Not sure that’ll happen.
Can't decide between Harrison and Neco. I know whichever I go for, the opposite will be the correct one
Subbed in Rodrigo which was an amazing transfer given he broke a shoulder twenty mins in.
Switching in Sancho? Perhaps Gundogan?

May drop Martinelli for Estupinan? Maybe I'm backing United a little too much but we have looked pretty solid recently.
I wouldnt. Martinelli is the most productice player at Arsenal. Simply playing his best games currently
… and he’s facing Dalot
Bilva went up meaning I could stretch to Zaha now if needed.
A few options though.
Leave Bilva alone, great fixtures coming, may still play today etc. Always good to have 2 transfers for a future week.
Zaha in. Newcastle and us up next though.
Grob in, which would allow Rashy to Anthony if he shows signs of being a must have.
Something else, eg Harrison.

Sanchez
Espudian Walker Trippier James Trent
Salah xxx Harrison
Toney Haaland xxxx
Will play only one of Jesus/Martinelli. Jesus is more owned but Martinelli has that extra point if they do turn us over. I'm leaning on the mad move of benching Jesus. Really think we can do em and Jesus gets 2 points.
What do you reckon?

Foden or Bernardo today?
Silva better form but likely to play less minutes?
Foden good away from usually and more likely to play, but more £££ and worse long term option?

Foden.
Yeah I wouldn't be putting Bilva in this week. I'm considering taking him out.
Bilva to GroB?
Then watch Anthony and see if Rashy to him next week makes sense?
Tough one. If you got him recently might just ride this game out. He will start next game.
Yeah screw it. I'll leave it then have 2 transfers next week post Europe. Bound to be some issues that arise midweek.
Mendy
TAA Cancelo N.Williams Trippier
Martinelli Salah Diaz
Toney Jesus Haaland (c)
Bench : Andreas, Saliba, Dasilva
1 Ft. Any obvious moves I'm missing or should I just roll the transfer?
I'm binning Mendy after this game but can't take him out at home agains a very poor attacking side. I'm thinking we are scoring at least one on sunday so Williams comes in for Saliba.

feck it, I brought in Antony even though he won't be a point freak.
Estúpinan or Dunk?
Dunk, starts every game
Last min injuries impact today?
Went with:
Ramsdale
TAA Cancelo James Estupinan
Kulusevski Diaz Martinelli Trossard
Haaland (C) Toney
Bench: Ward Aaronson Jesus Neco
It feels so weird to be leaving out this bench but it also feels like I got the right players in… hopefully.

Tempted to bench Martinelli for Neco
Once he gets going im going to sell diaz and sign antony.
Thought today was a good day to bench boost..
Banged a last minute transfer through.
Those always go well, right....right?

Said feck it, WC'd and went with this team :
Sanchez
Perisic Dalot James Cancelo
Diaz Gross Martinelli
Mitrovic Haaland Jesus
Bench : Henderson, Antony, N.Williams, Bilva.
Undecided on Dalot for N.Williams and Mitrovic or Jesus for Bilva.

Fofana at 4.4m seems crazy value in my eyes.
