Fantasy Premier League 21/22

- Start date
That's me. Bruno and Olise out, Salah and Raphinha in for a -4. Next week Robertson in for Dalot
Willock is v popular but I cant find a place for him in this GW ahead of Raphina, Salah, Coutinho. And I dont know if I like Chelsea as an opposition as part of his DGW in 29.
Thinking of passing on him but worried, I see him in a lot of teams!

Take out Watkins and that's a fine team.Played Wildcard at 1am while forcing my eyes open, went to sleep, woke up, don’t like my team
Dubravka (Ramsdale)
T.Silva - Rudiger - Livramento - Coady (TAA)
Salah - Willock - Raphinha (Saka - Kulusevski)
Watkins - Kane - Broja
I don’t like Willock and Watkins. In a Wildcard I want to at least like my players.
I stupidly removed Coutinho, who was in my original team at 7.1, now he’s 7.4.
Any thought please?
Really struggling between T.Silva vs. Digne
Silva in better team but Digne plays GW30.
Silva in better team but Digne plays GW30.
I only went Jimi based on their being no other good options.
He's more nailed then Watkins/Ings
Don't expect more than 9 ponies though.
Adams
I've added him to my free hit but not sure.
Going 3 Chelsea at the back leaves no room for mount or kai. So other options in midfield are then JWP etc which aren't great.
Looks decent but Rudiger and Silva is very boring and low ceiling. I'd squeeze in James somehow.
I have benched Digne because he has very less cs potential when you have good defenders like Wolves and Chelsea. Also vs Leeds he will be against raphinha so I don't see him attacking much. Listened to some villa guy who was saying the formation that beat Brighton had Digne and cash less attacking because they were getting wrecked at the back. Instead Ramsey and McGinn were going forward more. He has attacking potential but we know it never really comes when you want it.
Yeah with the news of azpi getting out James should at least start vs Burnley. For WC he will be in for me because long term you won't be able to go without him if he keeps starting.
Thanks fellas
I’ll do Watkins to Jimenez.
Then maybe Coady to Digne for some Villa cover?
I’m struggling to ignore Wolves and Southampton double though, that’s why I have Coady and Livramento starting, ahead of TAA. Never learn when it comes to chasing doubles.
You must have more team value than me as for taking 1.5m off Adams to Broja you could afford Tierney and Cancelo to my Holgate 4.2m and Dier 4.6m.
So you must have had another 1.5m or so to play with.
Never mind I clicked the button and all done.
Makes me laugh the keenness to keep Cancelo then not field him for 3 weeks though.
Mount or Lukaku for captaincy? Or Rudiger?
Yeah he is still a bit of a punt. I’ve seen some have him has captain which is just plain mental.
Not that I’ve got a better idea for captain. Keep switching between Kane and James.
Beautiful.Changed my plan a little and I'm set.
Posting in here so I can refer back to it later
GW28 (WC)
Dubravka
Rudiger, T.Silva, TAA
Salah, Raphinha, Willock, Ramsey
Broja, Kane, Jimenez
Subs: Ramsdale, Tierney, Davies, Saka
2.8 in the bank. 8 DGW players.
GW29 - (don't make transfer)
Ramsdale
Rudiger, Tierney, T.Silva, TAA, Davies
Salah, Willock, Saka, Raphinha
Kane
Bench: Dubravka, Broja, Ramsey, Jimenez
8 DGW players and now have 2 FT's going into...
GW30 (3 transfers for a hit)
Ramsdale
Tierney, Cresswell, Davies
Saka, Raphinha, Ramsey, Son, Maddison
Kane, Jimenez
Bench: Dubravka, Rudiger, TAA, Broja
(Salah, T.Silva & Willock out for Son, Cresswell & Maddison)
11 starters. £1.9 in the bank to swap Cresswell back to Cancelo later.
Still have 2xFH & BB left.
I think I'm going to go with this.
Only thing I don't like is Broja instead of Adams. But it allows you Tierney when I have 4.2m Holgate.
Although Holgate has a double he doesn't play week 30 and always chance of attacking gains (although also injuries with him!!).
Flex on bb in 29 too.
Sa (Foster)
TAA Coady James Livramento (White)
Mount Salah Raphinha (Ramsey) (Saka)
Broja Jimenez Kane
Have to take a few risks as I’m behind in my main league thoughts?

Think he starts both this GW and then potentially gets benched next GW before the CL. I don't mind the odd benching because his upside is far greater than Rudiger/Silva.
Happy with my WC team and strategy but just had a few niggles
- Salah cap. No Couty and can't trust Adams, Jiminez, Willock, Rudiger, Silva, Dubravka, Raph as cap, even if one of them is bound to outscored Salah.
- Adams over Broja. Bar price I can't see any reason to go for Broja. Adams outscored him recently. But switching to Broja could help me bump Holgate to Tierney if the money works.
- No Wolves defender. But have 2 Chelsea, Newcastle keeper and TAA

Burnley feels the sort of game Rudiger or Silva could settle with a thunder header.
He’s back on. Salah captain. I’m not convinced Raphina, Coutinho, Jimenez etc. will outscore Salah even with two games. Feel Salah might be the safer pick, and I’m not looking for a punt since I have great momentum in my mini leagues. Might change it last minute though
Livra over Ramsey is a big call. Every time Villa score you'll be nervous!
It's funny, a lot of us captained Weigy last week and the choices are surely better now. But we've been hurt before!He’s back on. Salah captain.

Salah seems the safe play. Anyone else is a lot riskier. Unless you like the stress of captaining defenders.
Cancelo coming back GW31. I've got so much left over cash that I can easily afford it.
Their numbers are similar so I'm going with the one that gives me more flexibility. Holgate could be a gem though.
Would you get T.Silva or Digne? Either one will go out GW31 for Cancelo.
But T.Silva much better team/fixtures whilst Digne plays GW30.
You not tempted to BB that?
Jimenez, Adams or Salah for captain?
That’s my view as well. Two easier games to get him back up to speed then maybe a rest week. But as I’ve got to take risks his potential returns could be higher if he gets a goal or assist.
Rüdiger is the safest bet though.
Yeah I’ve watched a fair bit of Villa recently and I’m hoping they’ll have an off day…
Just WC’d
After LOTS of deliberation, I've ended up going for:
Dubravka
TAA Rudiger Kilman James
Salah (C) Ramsey Willock Raphinha
Kane Broja
Subs: Ramsdale, Saka, Lacazette, Dier
Was pondering whether or not to get an Everton defender for a potential BB in GW29, but not yet convinced (i) that I will or (ii) by Everton's defence. Dier at least has a game in GW30, so could feasibly end up with 10 starting players then.
Also torn between Jimenez and Lacazette, but opted for the latter. A toss up, really, but hopefully it pays off in the long run.
Leading my ML so Salah seems like a safe (if uninspiring) choice for captaincy?

I think I'm sticking to the original plan of Rudiger and Silva.
Both have a set piece goal in them and James still has that tinge of doubt on minutes.
Villa don't seem to be too reliable.
Will stay on salah cap as 1 goal could be worth 20 points as cap, whereas you'd prob need 2 cleanses to get above that for a defender who doesn't attacking haul.
Are we confident the first 2 have more than 1 haul in them? Probably not. They might do of course but I think Salah is safest with a critical must win home game. Even though some thinkWest Ham are some sort of jinx team. Not sure anyone sees West ham upsetting Pool.
Replaced Jimenez with Hwang and just managed to squeez in Son. Very happy with that.
WC is then:
Sa/Dubravka
James/Rudiger/TAA/White/Kilman
Salah/Son/Fraser/Ramsey/Saka
Kane/Hwang/Broja

Would you start TAA against WH over Livra or Digne with doubles?
TAA will most likely get CS as WH play very deep away against the big boys. It depends you think he'll get attacking returns.
I usually go DGW as it makes the game more fun.
On a wildcard so avoided this sort of dilemma by having 8 doublers but also TAA, Salah and Kane.
Are you me?
Quick final thoughts guys
Nailed on FH: Sa, Rudi, James, Salah, Raphinha, Coutinho, Willock, Jimenez, One Soton Striker
So finally,
Silva + Second Soton Striker (Chelsea def triple up and Soton double up up front)
OR
Saiss and Havertz
Please pick one.

Sticking with Salah captain. Been hurt too many times trying to be clever with it.
We all know how pitiful Moyes' sides are away from home against the big boys

no
Probably the first option but both are fine.
