What a mood killer that one was.
It's normally United who do that to us!!

Actually felt a bit ill when I saw that last minute Brentford goal 
Was looking at a very healthy score with Ramsdale and White. Ah well.
edit- also another reasons why I'll rarely captain a defender. I can just about live with an attacking captain blank, but praying for a clean sheet and losing it late on is brutal.

52 (60 -8) so far. Don't know how to feel about that. The hits I took were profitable as I brought in Wigy and Saka but it's still a bit meh. I played the TC on Salah but it looks like almost everyone had at least 8 doublers (I have 6). The smallest of Green arrows so far but only 7 left to play.
Dreadful. Nothing outside of Salah TC and Ramsdale losing his clean sheet in 95th minute is the highlight of this week so far. Thinking about using one of my remaining FHs next weeks. Technically I got XI but it’s:
De Gea
Cancelo Reguilon Cash
Raphinha Cornet Bowen Foden
Dennis King Watkins
Thing is Reguilon doesn’t even play, King and Dennis are away at United, Watkins was benched today, Cornet might be injured etc. And I would have a ton of value on the bench in Salah, TAA, Robertson and Ramsdale. I could use that and go with something like:
De Gea
Cancelo Mee Davies
Son Bruno Coutinho Ward-Prowse
Kane Weghorst Broja
And would still have a strong bench with Livramento, Ramsey etc. That could realistically get me 20 extra points and give me some momentum… and there is only 11 weeks to use 3 chips.

Well as someone from Sweden I have never been that impressed with him before for Juventus and our national side. He was brilliant tonight though.
6 million is a steal if he gets nailed, but big if.
I say Dan James for 6 million might be better right now for more secured starts.
Brownhill is dropping to 4.2 tonight 
Can’t believe he has dropped 3 fecking times. Typical that he does this the same day he scores 9 points - it’s like he can’t do anything positive without negative repercussions.

On 56. Thankfully Cornet is ok for the next game.
I am no expert but I wouldn’t waste a free hit on a singles gameweek with so many doubles coming up. A few on this thread are posting 70+ scores before the second fixture. There is too much to gain if you get it right on a free hit.
Take a -4 and do King to Weghorst and Watkins to Broja and you have a perfectly good 11 for the next gameweek and the extra game for Weggy almost pays for the hit too.
I think Cornet is ok for next game, so your only doubt would be Cash (who could well be back in) and Reguillon. (You could even do a -8 and bring in a Burnley defender for Cash and have an extra fixture)
I honestly think it would be a waste with so many games to come.

Do I play with 10 next gameweek, or take Saka out for another mid 6.4m or less.
After a long time most things went well for me (Foster, Weghorst, Saka, Salah, Dennis). Hopefully will hit a century with the next set of games.
Why the hell is anyone taking him out? He's a cheapo facilitator.Brownhill is dropping to 4.2 tonight

I've set my week 27 team ready, just in case anything happens to stop me doing it, and he's actually in the 11. Inevitable he gets sent off/injured/covid before the double next week.
First team has 55. Sexond team (the one I play around with, experiment) has 67 with 8 games left… oy vey.
Preach it brother. Same.
Just need Salah to do the same as today and that alone does it.
Careful. The league do not take the use of multiple teams too kindly.
Thing is I don’t really want Weghorst beyond next week, and having a couple of United players v Watford could get me a bunch of points. I should be well settled for next doubles anyway with at least 6-7 in each of them with current squad. I might WC soon too.
There is just so few weeks left…

Still enough doubles left for your three chips!
Get in Southampton and Wolves players that play in 27 and double for 28 and then free hit for 29. It leaves you an out for any other week you fancy more doubles before the end of the season.
Did I say two, i meant mine and my dads.
I’m reporting this.
I will likely have nobody relevant playing in GW30 so I doubt I’ll have the luxury of using both FHs on doubles. As I said, I can pretty much have 6-7 doubles without FH along with 4-5 easy single. Not sure FH is worth it in that case.
Go for itI’m reporting this.
Really hope Reguilon doesn't play the next game so I can get Livramento’s jammy 12 points off my bench.
Such poor results for Villa and Brighton yesterday. Would make you wonder about the likes of Coutinho and Digne, and in my case Maupay. Ramsey should still offer good value though.
Really hoping for a Bruno haul later to make up for the frustration of the spurs game yesterday

Everytime I've bought him in he's gotten me 1 point so he may double that this time round.
I'm just happy he's healthy enough to get me that second point mid week.
Raphinha has been beyond useless
I took a -12 this week and might need another -12 next.
Raphinha dropped. Coufal out.
I think I need to free hit so I can at least keep Liverpool and Arsenal players.

Which idiot manager, in a relegation battle benches the only good player in the team?
Raphinha probably kicked his bielsa's wife (the bucket)

I am a bit annoyed my transfers didnt really fully work so far (Ramsey + Robertson) but Saka and Salah did so just trying not to fall behind too far. Gone from 60 to 70 k last night, but I hope keeping Bruno will work out
That’s bad enough for fpl managers. Lots will have Dalot and Raph. Hoping Bruno can repay my faith and run the show.
Hopefully Dalot doesn't get any minutes so Livra can come in from my bench.
How many free hits do you have left? If you still have 2 be worth using that rather than taking another -12
So Raphinha is another one that is now in rotation. I can’t really justify not taking FH next week I think, when two of my three defenders (Cash and Reguilon) and most my midfielders (Raphinha, Foden, Corner) are at a risk of not playing while two of my forwards are away at United while the remaining one is likely to be benched.
That Bruno goal has fecked my rank
9th PL goal for Bruno. Nice differential, only owned by 18%.
Ronaldo doesn't look like scoring, but today has to be the bigger picture, winning for top 4 and against an old school rival.
Not a given after throwing that 2 goal away v Villa, but hopefully a 3rd one will cement it.

You love to see it. Glad one of my single gw players is delivering. Captain next week against Watford I think or maybe this Weghorst character if I bring him in.
Frustrating that I was originally going to keep Bruno until Jota forced a switch of plans. Could really do with a Ronaldo goal.
Regrettably spot on...
A Raphinha goal never felt so shit
Went from thinking at least a rival wouldn't get a De Gea cleany, then his Leeds player scores. Dreadful.A Raphinha goal never felt so shit
Ronaldo winner?
