What an idiot. Put Toney in earlier today and looks like he's going to drop before the deadline.

We are still in the first month. You blank, you drop. Muppets move fast.What an idiot. Put Toney in earlier today and looks like he's going to drop before the deadline.
Feels even crazier this season.
Will take that clean sheet from Dalot.
3 bonus from Dalot on a yellow. May well just keep him around and hope to get my 0.1 back soon. Will be a good option in 7, 8 and 10.
Pleased with 5 points for Malacia, feel like i should have taken Dalot over him who looks to have more responsibility going forward than Malacia does, none the less a cheap option returning good points though!
There's certainly some mad value in utd defenders right now.
Dalot and Martinez at 4.4? Can't remember if Malachia is the same or 4.5 but not much odds!

Is everyone confident about Jesus and Martinelli returning on the weekend? Can we keep them out..
Leicester is the second worst attacking team in the league, Arsenal is the third best and United barely hung on for a 1-0 vs Leicester.
What do people make of these changes for the coming game weeks? Looking at transferring out James, Odegaard and Rodrigo as they are doubtful due to injuries and TAA and Salah because they have not been worth their values. Do I go ahead with this team or just grind it out for this weekend and hope James and Odegaard are back to being fit soon?
FPL troll Aubamashit is back 
Looks very strong
Ha! I did switch to Jesus as captain, but had to get back with Haaland
This coming week, only trade is Ward for Sanchez. I'm a bit worried the Man Utd boys having a few recent clean sheets might give me trouble with Jesus and Martinelli.
Sticking with Haaland as captain. Got a feeling he will do another 45 min hat-trick.
3 clubs in how many months? 'FPL troll Aubamashit is back
He'll be off to another club by next summer
Chelsea has a great striker that can produce, Pulisic, but he isn't getting enough time on the pitch.

It's already obvious but there is definitely a massive directive to make Haaland score every single goal in that team which just seems scary. That third goal vs Forest, Bernardo should have directly headed Cancelo's cross into goal, but he completely ignored that and headed it back towards Haaland. Basically every minute he's on the pitch he's just gonna be bombarded with chances non stop. Easy permacap.
But that just makes me think about a No Salah WC. Having a 13m asset you aren't gonna captain most weeks seems wrong and pointless.
Im going to captain haaland which means might he not score or worse get rested or get a cameo role.
BE WARNED.
BE WARNED.
Ive had dalot on the bench for the last two games. I only bought him because he was cheap
Having watched Leicester yesterday I decided to bring Trossard and Estupinan in already as both could do well against them next weekend and I wanted them anyway. The issue is my team is way too deep now and I'm struggling to leave someone on bench even for next week
Ramsdale Ward
TAA Cancelo James Estupinan Neco
Kulusevski Diaz Martinelli Trossard Aaronson
Haaland Jesus Toney
Too early to use bench boost for sure, I was thinking about banking on Arsenal not scoring at OT and leaving Neco and both Arsenal attackers on the bench but our defense is really not all that despite two clean sheets... Aaronson at Brentford is not a super easy fixture either but he's such a nice differential.

Whilst I appreciate he's merely a cheap bench option, you've surely got to be taking a punt on Nico @ home to Bournemouth?!
Great underlying attacking stats against a side who haven't scored in over 360 minutes (albeit with some incredibly tough fixtures).
It's possibly the only time he'll (intentionally) get in my side and there's potential he'll be in my squad all season!!
With all this said, Bournemouth will go on to win 3-0.
I was considering him but all my other options look better… I basically have a squad of 14 players with good games now.
It's Haaland captain again, isn't it? Any other competitors really?
No.
Surely this is the game he gets rested?
Hmm Salah vs Everton as a sure hit or Haaland and punt hes not rested. A tricky one.
I'm fine with C on Haaland if I know for sure he's not popping on for the last 15 vs Villa If Pep rests him I'd rather he just rested him for the 90 obviously!

If Pep rests him I'd rather he just rested him for the 90 obviously!There shouldn't be an easier sacking decision than one where a manager decides to bench a striker who has scored back to back hat tricks. This is still an away PL game not some shit cup game. Anyway...

Any advice guys? Not sure if I should use the wildcard or not
What do people make of these changes for the coming game weeks? Looking at transferring out James, Odegaard and Rodrigo as they are doubtful due to injuries and TAA and Salah because they have not been worth their values. Do I go ahead with this team or just grind it out for this weekend and hope James and Odegaard are back to being fit soon?
I think I'd still have Salah on a WC. Bit too soon to bin him. Maybe after Darwin returns and starts banging most goals we can do that.
I'm not sure how much I would bank on Chelsea's defence this season tbh. They seem leaky and the only player of theirs I would go for is Sterling currently.
I'm in a similar situation with Zinchenko and Rodrigo knocking about the squad. I've also still got Saka>Martinelli which is annoying. I've got 2 free transfers so thinking Martinelli>Saka and then Perisic>Zinchenko given Spurs fixture. Will need to wait on shifting Rodrigo though.
Is using a wildcard a good idea then? Or should I rather wait and hope James and Odegaard are fit for this weekend and use the 1 free transfer to take out Rodrigo?
4.4m on Fofana looked crazy value to me. He is going to be more or less starting a lot of their games.
The only one I had previously was James but looks like there is no clarity if he is available to play this weekend so looking at using wildcard to do some transfers.
Reece James had a cold. No reason to get rid.
Salah is done as an FPL option…. I know he just got 10 points, but for 13 (THIRTEEN) million he isn’t good enough anymore.
Diaz is the goal scorer of the Liverpool mids now and soon Darwin will be back.
With how he and Liverpool are playing, I can’t see Salah getting a single hat trick this season for example, whereas in previous seasons he could get one in any game.
He’s done at that price.

Hmm. Is he pretty much nailed on to be back in the team for the weekend then? Also, he will still be at CB I presume?
I'm just confused on what to do. I dont think it's a good idea to have 3 Arsenal attackers in team against United and TAA has been useless for far too many games. Too many transfers and I don't want to take a -4 point hit when I just had my best point haul this season.
Didn’t he JUST bring you 17 points!!?
1 good game out of 5 and was back to being 2 points against Newcastle.
I think you should take them both out. What could possibly go wrong?
He can and will haul on any given gw. Madness to sell him.1 good game out of 5 and was back to being 2 points against Newcastle.
Salah, sure, get rid for Diaz who’s better AND 5 mill less, Trent - madness to sell.
I reckon there's a decent chance Haaland gets rested this weekend
away to Sevilla on Tuesday and then Spurs next weekend

They bought Fofana so Reece James will obviously go back to his natural position, whether it's this weekend who knows. I'll be keeping him all season anyway, he's great value.
Trent scored 17 points a week ago and getting rid is madness. Another I'll be keeping for the season, again great value.
You're thinking too short term and wanting to knee jerk for one GW. Considering taking hits and playing the WC after your best week says it all, stop trying to undo your good work haha.
Just both of them just casually having their best games of the season so far.
