With AFCON happening soon is it worth getting in Salah just for the Chelsea game ?
Fantasy Premier League 21/22

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?
I am stuck with Mahrez. How fecked will I be today?
Normal team got Foden. If I free hit to remove a top player for a benched one it is purely shit.
On the other hand if I have guessed this right I can see mighty green arrows.

Foden, Antonio and ESR benched.
I think Mahrez will start today, we'll find out soon enough.
There is always a balance. I made my calls 15 min before deadline.
Crazy. People used to avoid captaining early kick offs. Now it's all about first kick offs haha.
Did my transfers last night like a real G. (famous last words)
Possibly not.
I think I'll give my team a quick very very hopeful check in 30mins or so, and see if a Christmas miracle happened of the free hit going through, as I had pressed the button.
But then when seeing it hasn't just disappear sulkily for a bit, and come back Tuesday
But yeah I've been burnt previously waiting for last minute. 15 mins before max.
Foden and Grealish still benched. Naughty boys.
Mahrez, Cancelo start, get in.
Lovely. Down to 5
Bilva captain - really need him to get back to his big pimping performance to rescue things.
Antonio benched leaves me 7.
Antonio benched leaves me 7.
ESR will come on touch the ball twice and score in the 75th min.
Antonio will erm...come on touch the ball twice and score...1 point.
Just wish I'd done the free hit button asap...then carried on tweaking after. Would have at least had some chance that way.
But in truth hadn't 100% decided on it until about 1.20pm
Transferring ESR in instead of Martinelli a few weeks ago looks even more silly by the day.
hoping not my friend.
Nice. I thought that might be the case so swapped out ESR for Martinelli on me FH.
Looks like he might have a more advanced role or KDB will play as a striker.
Yea FH or no FH was gonna be decided early. I was on 100% no FH.
Hoping by some miracle my free hit has gone through. What a load of shite watching football over the next couple of days with this rubbish
No point lamenting about a few not starting, who might get 2 points anyway. It’s all about Captain and core 5-6 players getting a decent enough score this week.
Even with 7-8 players and a scoring captain, the free hit was worth banking in my opinion.
If those that clicked it don’t get 80+, I think it’s a waste when you compare with opportunities to come.
I think a nice 50 without it is a decent target.

Sorry lads. I only made my transfers early as I knew I would be out so couldn't respond to you guys.
Yep, that's all we got pal.
When I can get back in and see it hasn't, I'll moan some more, then probably go and have a sleep for a couple of days and make sure the next transfer is done at that precise 10mins where we know games aren't off, but we know the servers won't crash
So just to confirm, I did neither of the options in the end
I'll remember this when my boys and someone I'd have never captained get me 25 points, and I watch others and my own intended free hit get 85
Foden has to go. Too many good midfield options to keep a player that Pep may easily be punishing for the next 10 games and has no upcoming doubles. Rashford or Sancho it is (cannot decide which is better).
Yeah just caught up on the thread... Luckily I had that urgent trip to B&QSo just to confirm, I did neither of the options in the end
Will have to hope for some sort of magical double week to cause carnage with the free hits!Yeah just caught up on the thread... Luckily I had that urgent trip to B&Q
You will be laughing though if these first games are a damp squib. A lot of people have gone big on these first games, and if they don’t get the big points, there will be double game weeks to come against sides with two FH in the bank.I'll remember this when my boys and someone I'd have never captained get me 25 points, and I watch others and my own intended free hit get 85
Pressure is on for FH’s and Foden is already benched!
Yeah if I get lower score than without a free hit then I am doomed.
If Chelsea keep a clean sheet and Spurs plus us suck then it was a wasted chip.
Out of everything, I’m most pissed that my Ben Johnson (4.0 West Ham defender) punt didn’t work.
Only bonus is we have it to play for whenever we want or the next double gameweek but I am screwed for this one. Need all the premiums to underperform and Livramento and Antonio (lolz) to do something amazing.Yep, that's all we got pal.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of FH are resting on this Spurs game and Palace should give them a match!
Yep, on the miracle that I can scrape through without taking a 30-50 point smash, then yes you're spot on.
Need some out of the expected stuff though, like a Bilva huge haul as cap, or Antonio coming on and doing something.
Or Palace, Norwich and the likes upsetting those thinking they'd be walk over games.
At least with Antonio it probably means he can ease back in today and be starting again midweek.
Dennis should start for Watford who will be on too.
But we already know Raph and Watkins might need to be shipped with our 2 freebies!
Pukki might actually score would be typical.
Taking him out for Son next.
Game taking far longer than usual to update. Must be still trying to process my free hit right?
