Fantasy Premier League 20/21

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Lots of tinkering and was going to look again but early kickoff caught me out.

Ryan/Nyland

TAA/Keane/Ake/Brandon/Tarkowski

Aubameyang/Bruno/Stephens/Dendoncker/Traore

Martial/Vardy/Ayew

 

[saivet]

Auba gets his goal. 3 assists for Willian!

 

[IrishRedDevil]

3 Willian assists.

 

[christy87]

Auba gets his goal. 3 assists for Willian!

Added willian just before I went to sleep last night

 

[Cheech Wizard]

Abameyang captain and Gabriel goals not a bad start for me. Clean sheet would be even better but this is Arsenal.

 

[Dan_F]

Took out Willian for Alli on the advice of others. Always the way.

At least Auba hasn’t blanked.

 

[Tiber]

Ok Auba isn't on 0 points anymore

 

[VP89]

Phew, feck off Wilian

 

[Sandikan]

Ornstein said Holding will start back on Thursday I think. I shared it in this thread too!

I mean longer term saliba will be more likely. Which will probably be true..but not great today!

 

[Heardy]

Willian was shite for fantasy at Chelsea as always too deep. Three assists? FML

 

[Ali Dia]

Leaving Alli in instead of Willian... damn it!!

 

[Kentonio]

Cue everyone rushing to transfer in Willian who will then do feck all for the rest of the season..

 

[Tiber]

I very strongly considered making Lacazette a big part of my team this year. Hope he doesn't prove me wrong

 

[Kentonio]

Time for me to regret transferring out Ings now..

 

[Withnail]

not a bad start... 20 pts from Tierney and Auba (C)

 

[Andycoleno9]

Is it too early to use wildcard?
I fecked up everything. Now i realise that i want Martial and Bruno in team. feck Salah and strong bench. I must change Salah, Traore and Ayew for Martial, Bruno and some dross midfielder for 5 mil (maybe Adrien Silva)

 

[Tiber]

Time for me to regret transferring out Ings now..

Snap. Though I did get Werner instead

 

[sebsheep]

Second one now

Missed the 2nd half, guy has come out with 3 assists. Hopefully I don't regret not having his as captain.
18 points from him and Tierney is pretty decent.

 

[Kentonio]

Snap. Though I did get Werner instead

I did it to bring in Robertson and Doherty at the back. Hoping it pays off..

 

[Andycoleno9]

Gabriel is bargain. I chose Soyuncu instead

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Bloody yellow cards to my players . Although Auba is so popular that I am better with him not getting too many points.

 

[Andycoleno9]

What you experienced players would rather do? Two top strikers plus dross who will never play on the bench or good striker on the bench?
I have Kane-Mitrovic- Ayew but i would rather have Kane-Martial and dross on the bench

Be calm, Salah hasn’t played yet. You have nothing to gain by doing big changes without all the facts first...

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

Southampton look awful. Going to wildcard players out from them soon.

 

[Nou_Camp99]

Southampton look awful. Going to wildcard players out from them soon.

I see you are a patient sort of person. Hahahaha

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

I see you are a patient sort of person. Hahahaha

They are doing nothing though. I have patience, but they are being totally overrun so far.

 

[Nou_Camp99]

They are doing nothing though. I have patience, but they are being totally overrun so far.

It's one game and not even a full one yet. Talking about wildcarding anyone right now is madness

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

It's one game and not even a full one yet. Talking about wildcarding anyone right now is madness

Not if you plan to wildcard fairly early.

 

[Nou_Camp99]

Not if you plan to wildcard fairly early.

You can but its a waste in first 2 to 3 weeks. You had a wildcard effectively before 11am today.

 

[RashyForPM]

I’ll take 7x2 points for Auba, but the McCarthy clean sheet is already gone.

Come on Ings. Please!

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

You can but its a waste in first 2 to 3 weeks. You had a wildcard effectively before 11am today.

This season is very different though. 4 teams not playing week 1 and also much harder to predict form with Covid around.
Going on with a terrible set up is not going to help.

 

[Tiber]

Swapped out Zaha this morning on a whim to upgrade a striker

 

[PogBruno]

Gone with heavy defense

McCarthy
TAA Robertson Doherty Egan
Auba (c) Son Pulisic ASM
Werner DCL
- Bissouma Brewster Ferguson

 

[Sandikan]

Need an Ings goal, then no harm done on the McCarthy clean sheet as so many will have him anyway.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

feck's sake KWP, that's a soft as shite red as well.

Edit: Overturned. What a roller-coaster.

 

[vodrake]

utterly typical

Edit: Phew

 

[Paul_Scholes18]

At least I didn't want to double up on that defense. He survived though.

 

[IrishRedDevil]

Screwed by starting 3 Southampton players. In reflection, it was a silly decision.

 

[Patchbeard]

No confusion brother.

I said i'm off to a cracking start (sarcasm) as Saliba, who I have, who is a 27m signing isn't even in the squad!

Confirmation below he was a 27m signing.

How's this related to Gabriel - who is starting?
Annoyingly i had Holding as well at one stage, but took him out as Saliba seemed to be the more likely starter!

Sorry I heard on the radio at the time of reading your post that Gabriel was a 27m signing, didn't realise Saliba was also 27m!

They are cheap for a reason. Not really great at defending and not getting any save points either.
Mccarthy look like a poor pick. Maybe Spurs will give some save points possible.
He is in my team for now though. Might change my goalkeeper strategy on my wildcard.
