It's template. If that's what you're after, it'll be fine
Fantasy Premier League 21/22
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Probably won't be an issue anyway as the deadline's this evening! (in ~5.5 hours)
Looks like a good team, very similar to one I'm thinking of myself. Although this chat about FH in GW36 has made me wonder if I should just take hits today instead....
Think Sancho over Foden is the better (and more exciting) call as well.
Thanks for the feedback! .
Yeah I thought foden in there was too templatey so I moved for Sancho. Not sure how many are triple United this weekend! But all the rest obvious picks are in there.
I had a v strong week just now so I want to keep it safe as I navigate gameweeks now.
The first option is my current thinking. Just not sure if BB is best option but I'm definitely using WC GW28. BB will depend on what I feel will happen in GW36.
I'm not using WC GW35 because it's too late in the season to have the best effect.
Cheers. I would need to take 2 or 3 hits to field a (competitive) XI this week so will use one of my FHs now. And then the next FH in GW30. But hopefully my team will be in a good enough state by GW36 that the lack of a FH then....!
Nobody has de bruyne? Everton is trash and City could easily smash them, specially after defeat to Spurs
It was between him and Son. Went with Son due to the guaranteed minutes.
White, Salah and TAA on the bench. Worth playing a bench boost?
I have 10 players, I could do a -8 and get in son him and weg for Robertson, Bowen and Watkins instead of a FH. Also have cancelo and Bruno. Rotation risks are Dalot and king. No idea wtf to do
Is Pieters nailed for Burnley? Would be nice if I could have him instead of Mee..
Really itching to take another hit to do Cornet to Mahrez. Must resist. Need the deadline to come soon 
Taylor is back fit now and when fully fit may well be first choice but given his lay off, I'd imagine Pieters keep his place for the time being.
How could it possibly be? None of them have a game
Just looking at my WC team for next week, really frustrating as GW28 looks better for Bench boost whereas it's a waste in GW29.
In that case, might just keep BB and have it in the back pocket. If I can't find another suitable time to play it then I will play it GW37 just to get some points on the board for the final push.

The element of surprise. Nobody will expect it!How could it possibly be? None of them have a game
Everywhere is saying to captain Weigy. I have been on Son captain for this week since a while ago. If I change my mind last minute and go for Weigy (and he blanks), I can see myself deleting my team
Who here is making Weigy their captain?

Tottenham seem quite poor in the games you expect them to be good. Whereas Burnley are back on the up.Everywhere is saying to captain Weigy.

I have the captain on Weigy as it stands, but that's because my only other option is Ronaldo, as I've not yet done Salah to Son, as want to see if there's another week 28/29 double first, which would make my wildcard nailed on.
They struggle to break teams that park the bus. Leeds only have a motorbike so they're ripe for the taking.
Bu Weigy has two shots and Spurs play early Saturday so it can truly mess with my weekend score either way!
Weigy captain feck it. Let's go!
Captaining a Burnley player…. after your one-man “ anti all things Burnley” crusade
How do you sleep at night? HOW?!

Yeah someone asked earlier which would be the best week for WC and BB and from what I can see so far it'd be WC27 and BB28. I don't really like the doubles in 29 as much and the teams with good doubles in 28 (pretty much all of em except Watford) have the sort of affordable fodder you'd be happy to leave on the bench most weeks.
There is a war going on and I spend 30 minutes reading the Ukraine news after getting home and then 3 hours for my team before the deadline.
I feel I am too addicted. Like this game is pointless yet so fun.

It's such a pointless game that demand SO much time. Half the time, we don't even have fun with it, just moaning and complaining.
But that ONE time when a random differential defender gets a goal, clean sheet and 3bps... Best feeling ever
Final question from me:
Should I take a second hit to do Keane to Tarkowski?

Haha I love the moaning too. I think I moaned a lot this year. On Kane, Mbeumo, Ronaldo.It's such a pointless game that demand SO much time. Half the time, we don't even have fun with it, just moaning and complaining.

Although the guys that have annoyed me the most are Gallagher and Smith Rowe.
There was a point in the season that every game I would look like outscoring my rival and each week, this idiot would come on late and get a goal for him
Everton got a double soon right. Burnley got hard game in 28.
Although Keane is a probable 1 pointer this week or 0 if you get bad luck.
I'm using WC after this week so long term is irrelevant.
Then do it I say. Or I rather remove Salah for Bruno or Son.
2 out of Foden Mahrez Sterling?
Certainly wouldn't be wise wildcarding this week, as you have no Arsenal or Liverpool games, and you'll most likely want a few of both in week 29.
A hit for a Burnley defender, who has just missed at least 1 game?
He'd have to get 1 cleany for parity!
I think the game is clear then.
Salah to Son this week.
Week 28 wildcard - hoping that Chelsea have got a double in there.
Week 29 BB.
Anyone got anything to bring to the table that makes that plan sound dodge?

Week 29 bench boost do not look that good in terms of doubles with cheap picks.
Pickford stand out as the best keeper with fixtures, but learn from my errors do not pick him.
Do you even want Everton defenders and Newcastle long term or just for bench boost?
Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs picks you would start anyway. Brightons double is hard.
Already done Salah to Son.
Mahrez and Sterling. Foden has been a bit shit recently. But this is city to proceed with caution.
I think Keane will get 1 point so the risk might be worth it, especially with Leicester being so suspect at set plays. Can get Mee instead but Tarkowski feels like the one that might get a goal with Mee having scored recently, irrational as that sounds.
Who is in the bench for you GW29. I was thinking the same but the bench was weak sauce.
Well if I was doing it I'd have TAA, White and one of Saka/Martinelli on the bench and leave the money to turn Son back into Salah (GW29 after the Spurs double). But I'm not so it's all moot. Arsenal have a great fixture in 28 but I guess you're not really maxmising the BB and that's why I hate that stupid chip. I feel like people often waste their wildcard because of it.
All the love for Burnley defenders to transfer in this week but Wolves have a very good double next week when Burnley have Chelsea and are guaranteed a fixture GW30. Is the like of Coady or Kilman a better option than Mee or Tarkowski then?
Edit: Forgot about Saiss and think he could be the one. Good for a thunder bastard header against Leeds in GW30
