JWP only got 3 still though. I think he’s going to go on a decent run
Who to drop from the mids is the hard part .. I have Salah, Jota, Bowen, Coutinho, Saka. I think I'm just keeping the bolded ones for the rest of the season. Jota is coming back in a week or so anyway, so I'd just bite the bullet and keep him on the bench for now.

Coutinho is the primary outlet for Villa these days and they have some fairly good fixtures which means I'd need to can Bowen to get JWP in. Bowen is almost OOP forward these days for a top 6 side, I don't think that's wise.

Well to be fair, Keane did bag a nice 13 points the other week, Mee I've only got in this week, Gray has been rotting 3rd on my bench.

Cornet and Édouard have been the actual issues in my team as I got them ahead of Saka and Weigy so that hurts.

I'm high in the rankings because I usually follow stats and trends to jump on players early before the bandwagon begins and usually it works out.

However, instead of humbly bragging, I tend to moan and winge about my mistakes :lol:

The United fixtures are frustrating as I had a sweet WC draft with TAA, Cancelo, Salah, Son & Bruno. But the fixtures mean Bruno must miss out with no obvious route back to him once I've played my WC :(
I think the OR reflects that your calculated successes far outweigh any odd mistake.

Brag away.…. that OR merits it :)

Wankhorse 158 % EO. A proper donkey playing for the second lowest scorers. Game has gone mad :lol:

Anyone else only used their TC chip so far? If so, what are your chip plans ahead

It shows people in the top 10k focus on doubles. Most of them probably did Bruno/Bowen captain as well and some Dennis too.

At my rank he is only 125% owned.

He got 2 returns in his last game away at Brighton so there's justification for going Weghorst. I did too.

It came down to Spurs players or him.

Have you drafted out a WC29 team yet? Presumably keeping an eye on fixtures, say 31-33.
I have a draft but things can change depending on the fixtures of GW30:

Ramsdale
Tierney, TAA, T.Silva, Cancelo
Salah, Raphinha, Son, Martinelli
Kane, Weigy

Subs: Foster, Veltman, Broja, Brownhill

In another note... Leeds are so useless in defence... Kind Maguire is their defensive coach.

Son seriously has more red cards than he has goals for me. Always own this cnut of a player at the wrong time.

Nice. I might take a put on a Newcastle attacker upfront instead of Raphinha.

Awful watch this as a Son owner and non Kane owner. :(

WC, FH and BB all still in play but I think I should have wildcarded last week when everyone else did.

Will be weirdly pleased if Son blanks as it means my decision to Captain a Burnley striker over him is less bad.

Poor free hit so far.

Son in my normal team so I guess his score do not matter.

What makes or break this free hit is if Burnley can keep a clean sheet.

The plan is to have ASM but that depends on how the player values change over this week. If there's too many of mine that go down, then it'll have to be Weigy, if not, then ASM.

Taking that hit to bring in Son not looking great but at least I switched Captain to Weigy at the death. But plenty of time to go...

Odds heavily against 3 goals, 3 assists and no Son involved?

But when Spurs and Leeds defence meet, anything is possible?

This could end up 7-0 or 4-3 to Leeds.

Bielsa is definitely gone if relegated, probably gone regardless though. Done a great job in making his team better technically but now needs another manager to make them better tactically.

Classic troll player.
Imagine not having him today v Leeds and seeing them score 3-4 and him not be involved once - no chance.

Put him in - every chance!

Had Shaw and Sancho in my free hit team. Rangnick roulette.

Why aren't we starting Dalot at home to Watford? Bizarre and annoying.
At least Trossy starts. Need Ait Nouri to play tomorrow to get 11 out now, unless Dalot comes on for a 1 pointer!

Ronaldo we need a haul today!

So I'm on 9 men despite taking -8. Should have taken out Edouard instead of King in hindsight.

At least Cornet on the bench so he may start against Leicester.

A late goal with Kane and Son combining.

That's the nightmare scenario when you've risked having neither...

So glad I brought Son in!

That -4 to bring in Son paid off! And another Kane assist to boot!

Raphinha gets one more GW to prove his worth...
