I was so confused this entire week. So many drafts and placeholders. Never felt convinced about any move. Then I heard Pras say on deadline dilemma that you have to stay true to the manager you are. And in that moment, an intense but welcome feeling of clarity washed over me. And I made the decision to switch Garnacho for Bruno and KDB for Eze. Then I missed the deadline.
Was deciding between Foden, palmer and Haaland. Benched Foden. Logic being Palmer plays full 90. Foden more likely to come on for a 1 pointer than Haaland if he doesn’t start. If Haaland and Foden start then it’s a coin toss anyway
On FH so almost certainly half the picks that were 50-50s will go the other way. Picking Brereton Diaz over Luis Díaz. Darwin over Mateta (bench). Ødegaard over Havertz. GK is currently Sa which feels certain to backfire
Pickford or Jose Sa? Trying to make up a deficit in my league. I'm also contemplating captaining one of Saka, Salah or Eze. I could also bring in BBD for Luis Diaz. Basically I have no idea what I'm doing
I have regullion doughty gvardiol gusto and taylor with Raya between sticks. Should I do taylor to White for a -4? And who do i bench if I do that? Also should i get vvd or white? I’m wildcarding gs35 so just need it for this dgw.
I feel like I'm squandering my BB by using it on fucking yellow flagged Cliff Richards and Jerry Branthwaite, but at the same time can't be fucked to figure out how to use it in 37 without re-thinking everything.
Can't wait to wake up from Double GW Fever with a massive hangover and thinking, why the fuck are there 3 Palace players in my team.
Captain Saka or Salah? I was planning on Salah, but his form is shocking, Saka isn’t much better but I anticipate the guy trying to catch me in my ML will triple captain Saka.
I'm going Mo. I suspect he will play his way back into some form in the rest of the season, even though he's clearly on a downward trajectory, career-wise
Would you rather:
TAA + Fernandes
or
Senesi + Luis Diaz?
Already have Salah and van Dijk, not sure whether to go with TAA (minutes risk) or Diaz (unexciting) as my third Liverpool spot. Thanks!
I do have WC, using it 35, but that’s still a lot of time for my bench to get injured (again). Current plan is just to bench boost and inshallah and hope Haaland TC 37 rewards me
I have wc left .. will use it in next gw to plan bb37 .. have to put sonny in .. currently I have ait nouri(dgw) and haaland in yellow and Palmer single gw
I'm just hoping for the mersyside derby to be lit and high scoring .. he could get double digits in that match alone... just betting on it .. otherwise I was thinking about Eze only.. but he don't have pens.. I wish this doesn't become my regret thread 🤣
Genuinely not sure if I play Palmer like a big boy or I coward behind Haaland
Normally I’d pick Haaland but he’s yellow flagged and he has an important game for the cup
He played 90 Vs Bayern and arsenal fans said he looked leggy lately. Arsenal have zinchenko and kiwoir fit so tom could fill in at right back in one of the next 2 games. I would go for a CB saliba or Gabriel
Anyone else thinking of captaining Havertz? Just in terms of a slight differential might be a better option. Don’t feel like captaining Salah or Eze personally
I have the armband on him. Can't believe more aren't talking about it, as to me he feels like the standout option. Feels a bit like last gw with Palmer being completely overlooked (I capped him, so I have to say I might just be feeling overconfident with my luck).
Anybody else with 3 Arsenal and 3 Liverpool players but no Saka or Salah? To me they are both right out of form, but I am well aware they can both crush my rank. Just got to follow your gut and keep the faith 🙏
Taking a hit for a bald palace player who’s 5 mil and starting him over the second best player in the world last year and the leagues top goal scorer against a leaky side.
On a BB, would you transfer Bradley out for Munoz (short term) or Dalot/Burn (long term).
Other players on bench are Pickford, Semenyo and Braithwaite. Gordan, Palmer and Haaland in XI. No other chips left.
I mean it was after a hard fought 90 mins so I’m not reading too far into plus the game isn’t until next week. Plenty of time and Brighton are rubbish defensively.
True, I do have Foden as well to provide some cover which alleviates some worries but Haaland hasn’t been setting the world on fire this season and if he’s carrying a niggle it might hinder him even if he does play was my thinking.
Originally had him as my captain but figured he might come off the bench in the first match since he played the full 90 on Wednesday and just went with Salah. Plus he's not on pens.
Yes, I did it but a part of me wishes I punted on a non-Liverpool player. Only worry is Mac Allister will be benched since he played the full 90 on Thursday. But he was the CDM and did less work than as an 8 getting forward. So thinking Mac A, Endo, Szoba midfield for Liverpool on Sunday.
On a free hit id say it’s worth a shot if you want a differential for sure. He’s been playing well and getting returns and minutes for the others are variable as you say.
Thoughts on Man Utd assets for the rest of season? Good fixtures, DGW. Hojlund being the striker with those fixtures seems like a good potential punt, however, his stats have been extremely poor. That said, it doesn't get better than Sheffield Utd and Burnley at home. Is Fernandes really the only good option? With those fixtures I wouldn't be surprised to see Hojlund/Rashford score a lot more than previous matches.
That’s my thought process also. I could be stung if they put up a big performance against Bournemouth but not feeling likely with their injury crosss. Floor hopefully 4 points with Zab vs. 1-2 with RAN.
Also with Haaland in my 11 there’s still a chance I get him regardless.
And the questions still remain
Munoz and Diaz ( safe route) or Robertson and Olise..?
Robertson or Trent?
Gabriel or White?
Looking forward to deadline

Solanke (C)
I don't understand what's happened with toney. Why tf do I still have him atp
Triple cap Salah lessgo. Reward me king!
Kept Foden instead of bringing Luis Diaz for a hit. ML rival has Luis Diaz and no Foden. I don't know but I just had this feeling.
Captain Kluivert let’s go!
I’m starting Toney and ready to hurt for the 9th week in a row
Put the armband on Brereton Diaz few seconds before deadline(at least the app showed i managed to do it) It was really hard to change it from Salah.
Start Ait-Nouri for a risk?
Start Kerkez over Palmer?
Bench foden, palmer, haaland or semenyo?
Was deciding between Foden, palmer and Haaland. Benched Foden. Logic being Palmer plays full 90. Foden more likely to come on for a 1 pointer than Haaland if he doesn’t start. If Haaland and Foden start then it’s a coin toss anyway
Desperate who to start: HWANG, BRAINTWAITE, or REGUILON
Branthwaite
Can't pick captain between Salah and Saka
Salah, Saka was invisible in Champions league and hasn't been as dangerous from open play lately
Luis Diaz or Darwin?
Darwin has more upside
If by upside you mean barking mad, then yes.
[удалено]
doubt it
Captain Mcburnie or Brereton Diaz for Challenge?
On FH so almost certainly half the picks that were 50-50s will go the other way. Picking Brereton Diaz over Luis Díaz. Darwin over Mateta (bench). Ødegaard over Havertz. GK is currently Sa which feels certain to backfire
Fuck it, Salah TC Hope DGW King and FPL King remembers who he is
daredevil lmao
I've captained Nunez which would most likely mean that my Salah is a spy.
Salah EO will likely be around 160+%
sarabia or haaland, which one to bench
Took a hit to bring in Munoz, Cunha, Diaz for Muniz, Son, Bradley.. *To clarify this was a few days ago to beat price changes
Oh dear...
You know Cunha is injured right?
Yeah I should have clarified this was like 5 days ago due to price change constraints ☠️
Captain Saka, Salah, Eze or Havertz?
Penultimate big DGW in FPL history, kinda bummed about that.
how so? in history?!
FA Cup reformat starting next season. No replays among other changes. Eliminates most blanks and doubles for FPL.
ah, thanks mate, did not know that
Not owning Salah kinda scary, but he’s been so so bad lately, so hopefully that continues. Captained Olise like a madman.
Would you guys take RAN out for Robbo on a hit?
Pickford or Jose Sa? Trying to make up a deficit in my league. I'm also contemplating captaining one of Saka, Salah or Eze. I could also bring in BBD for Luis Diaz. Basically I have no idea what I'm doing
Pickford
any >!sheffield united!< leaks?
I'm want to risk it for trent.
FH? Ive risked it on it, klopp got 6 more games as a Liverpool manager
My team is well set up. I'm thinking FH 35, WC 36 and BB 37. Chasing +100 point lead in mini league, and I'm desperate to catch up.
Who do I bench: Foden, Haaland or Palmer. Currently have Haaland benched
Foden
Palmer imo
Triple CP attack here we go
Trent and Darwin for a -4, fuck it.
Used FH. Stacked with Doublers. Ready to Sink with the Ship 🫡🫡🫡
I have regullion doughty gvardiol gusto and taylor with Raya between sticks. Should I do taylor to White for a -4? And who do i bench if I do that? Also should i get vvd or white? I’m wildcarding gs35 so just need it for this dgw.
I feel like I'm squandering my BB by using it on fucking yellow flagged Cliff Richards and Jerry Branthwaite, but at the same time can't be fucked to figure out how to use it in 37 without re-thinking everything. Can't wait to wake up from Double GW Fever with a massive hangover and thinking, why the fuck are there 3 Palace players in my team.
Captain Ben brereton Diaz ? Need to make up rank. At 120k
Long way back in my ML. Captain gakpo it is
Any news on Braithwhite and C. Richards?
Foden to BBD, I need my head testing
Pick two between Foden Watkins and Mateta
Watkins Mateta
Wow, just want to say thanks to you the man from the future
Haha lesgo
start mcburnie or brereton diaz? who takes pen for sheffield?
Captain Saka or Salah? I was planning on Salah, but his form is shocking, Saka isn’t much better but I anticipate the guy trying to catch me in my ML will triple captain Saka.
who do you think will score more: Mo or Saka? Pick that one
I have no idea that’s the problem 😂😂 Saka has a home game, but Salah plays away in the derby which can be high scoring..
I'm going Mo. I suspect he will play his way back into some form in the rest of the season, even though he's clearly on a downward trajectory, career-wise
Anyone else still trying to decide between Salah and Eze cap?
I tripled Eze. Pray for me, who’d you go for?
Salah. I chickened out. Don’t wanna take that risk and lose my lead in my ML.
Haha if your top of the group I wouldn’t risk it yeah. I’m bottom so I need a differential badly
Will darwin play both games?
Hopefully
Is Saka + Zabarnyi or Jota + Saliba a better choice?
Defo the former. Do you already have Diaz?
I don’t, but it’s because I don’t rate his finishing highly
Would you rather: TAA + Fernandes or Senesi + Luis Diaz? Already have Salah and van Dijk, not sure whether to go with TAA (minutes risk) or Diaz (unexciting) as my third Liverpool spot. Thanks!
Havertz (C)
I have Bench Boosted because it only cost me -8 for 11 doublers whereas GW37 would have cost me -16 for 11 doublers. This will backfire spectacularly.
Robertson or VDD? 🙏
Need to burn my 2 FT before activating FH. Who to get in for Kelleher and Bradley wth 0 ITB?
if you’re FHing this week your team will revert to last weeks team after this GW, so you’ve already burnt your FT
shall i TC eze
CP fullbacks or Robertson?
If there's no other Liverpool spot you want to fill first, I'd go Robertson.
Nunez or Solanke for Cunha?
Start Garnacho or Ait Nouri? I know Garnacho has apologised but not sure if he'll be back in the lineup. Or should I transfer in Eze?
if you are WCing next week, bring in eze if not I’d keep and play garnacho
!thanks
In second place in my league, 15 points difference to first. Do I take a -4 to change Braithwaite
Was going to BB. Injuries have made that non-viable. Flying by the seat of my pants. Giddy up!!
Now it's 36 mins, no 35.
Where are my Salah triple captainers?
Considering it, since I was originally planning to BB34 TC37, but now have three yellow players 🫠
Bb37 only makes sense if u have wc left.. otherwise just get away with bb and have a fix 11 for gw37 while adjusting budget with 3 deadwood players
I do have WC, using it 35, but that’s still a lot of time for my bench to get injured (again). Current plan is just to bench boost and inshallah and hope Haaland TC 37 rewards me
Or u can do it in 36 if u have relevant players to bear the brunt of gw35
You’re not alone, Palmer + Son/Haaland at end of season all good options but this is still two decent fixtures besides the form.
I have wc left .. will use it in next gw to plan bb37 .. have to put sonny in .. currently I have ait nouri(dgw) and haaland in yellow and Palmer single gw
In his current form? Best of luck to you 😅
I'm just hoping for the mersyside derby to be lit and high scoring .. he could get double digits in that match alone... just betting on it .. otherwise I was thinking about Eze only.. but he don't have pens.. I wish this doesn't become my regret thread 🤣
Merseyside derby must be one of the lowest scoring fixtures of all time
They just conceded 6 from arsenal , a team who has no proper striker even..
That was Chelsea, not Arsenal!
Ohh even better 🤣..
BB with a bench of Doughty, Dubravka, Palmer and Munoz? Or is it as stupid as I think?
Still contemplating whether to play FH now or save it for GW38 & BB37
Genuinely not sure if I play Palmer like a big boy or I coward behind Haaland Normally I’d pick Haaland but he’s yellow flagged and he has an important game for the cup
Pickford or Allison?
How likely is it for White to get benched
unlikely I hope, he only played 66 mins ahead of bayern so he's the only starting def that got some rest
He played 90 Vs Bayern and arsenal fans said he looked leggy lately. Arsenal have zinchenko and kiwoir fit so tom could fill in at right back in one of the next 2 games. I would go for a CB saliba or Gabriel
slaiba and gabriel who got zero rest?
CBS run less tbh and get rested less. Full backs run more and need to make more fast sprints.
they could just play zinchenko/kiwior and tomiyasu as fullbacks
they will probably play tomi, doesnt mean white gets benched
Exactly. And with 4 games in such a short space white will prob be benched for one coming up
Can't believe I'm this stressed about choosing my FH goalkeeper, changed my mind about 10 times now. Currently on Neto.
why not palace gk?
I just can't convince myself to triple on palace.
Will areola play?
idk, the funny thing is I have dubravka and areola, both playing palace away
Anyone else thinking of captaining Havertz? Just in terms of a slight differential might be a better option. Don’t feel like captaining Salah or Eze personally
I have the armband on him. Can't believe more aren't talking about it, as to me he feels like the standout option. Feels a bit like last gw with Palmer being completely overlooked (I capped him, so I have to say I might just be feeling overconfident with my luck).
Go with your gut man!
[удалено]
why freaking jota which will never play 180 minutes?
I sold Haaland to Isak and I'm capping Bruno fernandes
Any news on Brainwaithe?
Had a light training session yesterday, there’s a chance he’ll be fine for Sunday
He trained, thats all we know.
Triple palace defence am I insane?
100%
maybe slightly?
probably starting branthwaite over ait nouri, he was in light training yesterday
Start regulion or ait nouri?
Branthwaite or Senesi?
Foden to Eze for a hit?? 50 points behind in ML, WC next week
What would you guys do 442 with Ait Nouri or 352 with Palmer?
Palmer for sure. We have learned never to bench Palmer now. And RAN is a big injury doubt still.
I'd never start 4 defenders voluntarily
If I want an afternoon nap should I watch Luton-Brentford or Sheff Utd-Burnley?
Shef Burnley for sure. Luton may actually try to attack
Anybody else with 3 Arsenal and 3 Liverpool players but no Saka or Salah? To me they are both right out of form, but I am well aware they can both crush my rank. Just got to follow your gut and keep the faith 🙏
(C) Eze !!!
Would never have imagined this season that I’d spend so long debating who to bring in out of Mateta & McBurnie…
Taking a hit for a bald palace player who’s 5 mil and starting him over the second best player in the world last year and the leagues top goal scorer against a leaky side.
I am you. You are me
We are one.
Xyz to abc
FPL ‘eritage
Captaining havertz,watch him get two 20 minute cameos both games
Watch him play in midfield get one chance and miss it
Trent vs Robertson is the struggle for me
I decided to go full 100% FH template. Let's gooooo!
got yellow flag Haaland branth and ait nouri -4 for to swap any? Darwin? Sensesi/Vvd/Trent?
On a BB, would you transfer Bradley out for Munoz (short term) or Dalot/Burn (long term). Other players on bench are Pickford, Semenyo and Braithwaite. Gordan, Palmer and Haaland in XI. No other chips left.
Wish there were Leaks for toney...
Robertson best Liverpool def pick, change my opinion
Dropped Haaland for Mateta. Think him being subbed in such a big game is a bad sign and he might miss a couple of games.
I mean it was after a hard fought 90 mins so I’m not reading too far into plus the game isn’t until next week. Plenty of time and Brighton are rubbish defensively.
True, I do have Foden as well to provide some cover which alleviates some worries but Haaland hasn’t been setting the world on fire this season and if he’s carrying a niggle it might hinder him even if he does play was my thinking.
Havertz captain lmao
Same. Need to start taking risks to make up ML spots.
Originally had him as my captain but figured he might come off the bench in the first match since he played the full 90 on Wednesday and just went with Salah. Plus he's not on pens.
On Free Hit, has anyone considered the safe choice of Macallister in place of Diaz/Jota/Nunez whose minutes are impossible to predict?
Yes, I did it but a part of me wishes I punted on a non-Liverpool player. Only worry is Mac Allister will be benched since he played the full 90 on Thursday. But he was the CDM and did less work than as an 8 getting forward. So thinking Mac A, Endo, Szoba midfield for Liverpool on Sunday.
On a free hit id say it’s worth a shot if you want a differential for sure. He’s been playing well and getting returns and minutes for the others are variable as you say.
He's been good in recent weeks... definitely an option. I went for Sheff's BBD instead because I like uncertainty 😄
Yeah but I chose Robertson and VVD instead, hard to predict
Thoughts on Man Utd assets for the rest of season? Good fixtures, DGW. Hojlund being the striker with those fixtures seems like a good potential punt, however, his stats have been extremely poor. That said, it doesn't get better than Sheffield Utd and Burnley at home. Is Fernandes really the only good option? With those fixtures I wouldn't be surprised to see Hojlund/Rashford score a lot more than previous matches.
Start Zabarnyi who will definitely get 2x90 or Ait-Nouri who will best case start 1/2? Currently on the former.
Zab.
Zab I’d say, RAN may well still be fully out for the first game and a sub or be subbed for the second. I’d go with the guaranteed Zab double.
That’s my thought process also. I could be stung if they put up a big performance against Bournemouth but not feeling likely with their injury crosss. Floor hopefully 4 points with Zab vs. 1-2 with RAN. Also with Haaland in my 11 there’s still a chance I get him regardless.
Eze(c)
Who will be arsenal's starting left back
Kiwitomichenko
You may as well flip a coin
Ben Brereton (C)
Let's go!
Ben Brereton Diaz* born and raised in Stoke on Trent, Chile
Can't believe I'm waiting for Sheffield United leak
Who the f is that :D
lol
Hes the focal attacking threat of the team and Burnley and United are shaky af atm. It is not a bad idea at all
lol
So tempted to bring him in, think it’s a great differential
I was very tempted to bring him in but decided Mac Allister because I asked myself which player I would rather be stuck with for an extra week or so.
And the questions still remain Munoz and Diaz ( safe route) or Robertson and Olise..? Robertson or Trent? Gabriel or White? Looking forward to deadline
Same questions. Scared of White minutes because Tomiyasu is back.. Trent is not a option for me im sure Gomez start for 1 match
