[Harkorede]

I think that I have collected quite good amount of points this week. However I haven't been able to collect the points I wanted from my Darwin and Højlund preferences on forwards yet. I'm very happy to be in top 10 still when I think about my first season performance. I hope that I can manage to finish the fantasy league in a position that is enough to win a prize at the end of the season.

I think Man United would be a good team to invest in, but I don't think it will be from an attacking stand point for this season, I'll leaning towards them defensively when get most of their backlines back, and hopefully Andre Onana's price would have dropped by a few more 100 grand, and hopefully Dalot too!

I can't help but admire this team, talk about skill, btw this isn't my fpl team but the highest of game week 9 in the entire world..

Am wondering to myself what stops us from getting such scores with such a practical team and without any Manchester city assets that I expect everyone to own at least 1 but a non City squad, this is a slap in the face..well played Gretna FC(Serbia).

Team Kanapka, congrats on that solid 110 points making you the GW9 champ

[Igebotz]

@Igebotz, I won't be transfering Botman out just yet, he'll be on the bench for those games weeks, there are no defenders with tempting returns that I'd rather trade him for, If I had the extra bank roll, Botman for Trippier would have been the call for me, so I'll likely just wait it out.

I received an update on his injury and it appears that he will be out for no more than two weeks. At first, I believed he would be out for a longer period of time, but since it is only two weeks, you are right to keep him on the bench for a few more weeks. I'll check if his price drops in the next few days to see if I can afford him.

Looking for Gusto replacement now that James is fully recovered and back to the team.

A team with Salah, Son, Maddison, Trippier and Watkins could do without any Manchester city assets all day of the season.

Very newbie question here, why i have 2 free transfer this week? Is for all or is something special? I remember some old players write here in some weeks we have more transfers so we can make big chances in that weeks, so its this one one of these?

Because you rolled over your one free transfer last GW, you have two this week, and if you roll it over again, you'll have three FT next GW...... Go on.

Unused free transfers are rolled over and do not expire. I have 2FT as well because I didn't use mine.

If you do not use your free transfer, you are able to make an additional free transfer the following Gameweek. If you do not use this saved free transfer in the following Gameweek, it will be carried over until you do. You can never have more than 1 saved transfer.

Bold part is important, 2 is max you can have so if you don't use one this week you will actually loose it. If you use one FT this week you will have 2 FT again next week.

Don't know if Igebotz is screwing with you on purpose but I decided to intervene and stop his foul plays, intentional or unintentional 


Congrats to Kanapka, this week free bet winner. 110 is a new record and now you are the one that needs to be overtaken for best GW reward.

What do I do if I want to play all of my players this coming GW? Literally can't decide on who to put in and what formation to use, so tough as everyone is having a favorable matchup

That's what Bench Boost is for but it's best saved for double GWs. For instance, Villa just smashed West Ham 4 - 1, but I had Digne and he blanked, everyone else here probably had Cash and he also blanked, so BB will backfire in such situations.

Even when the player is not necessarily bad, you can still get screwed sometimes. Like how Spurs won 2 - 0 but for whatever reason, Udogie was subbed at 55' and killed many people's points including mine.


So looks like the ideal team would be

Areola
Trippier Porro Cash
Maddison Bowen Son Salah
Watkins Alvarez Haaland (C)

but the problem is as you guys have probably figured out, it is impossible to get all these players even with 105m pounds so we have to gamble on some of them and pray that the others don't haul and break our GW.

[Hhampuz]

So you tell me @NotATether, who the hell do I put in my lineup?

Crazy result, but if this is a screenshot from his account, then you can pay attention to his average points - 67. This is a very good indicator, but still not so unattainable even for those who have “regular” teams with Haaland, etc. Of the thousands of players who assemble teams, he was lucky, and besides the main players like Salah, Son, etc. the underdogs also scored points. Maybe in the next game day, only the player with the top picks will be in first place.

Don't have Bowen and Watkins, but I have Diaby to cover Watkins a bit (not really happening) and now I will get Mitoma. Also Tsimikas and Zouma on the bench if needed.

So you tell me @NotATether, who the hell do I put in my lineup?  

That is why I choose some bench fodder which will never play, Mubama at the moment.

In your situation I would put in Saliba for Zouma. People pile on critique on Everton but they are actually quit solid by underlying numbers. Then I would monitor Newcastle in CL and if Isak plays 75+ minutes leave him on the bench. If Wilson gets majority of minutes in Europe I would exchange Isak for Ward-Prowse. JWP plays much deeper now that Soucek took his number 10 place. He still has set pieces but you never know when those will come.

You're always ruining my shine, well that was an honest mistake from me though.

What do I do if I want to play all of my players this coming GW? Literally can't decide on who to put in and what formation to use, so tough as everyone is having a favorable matchup  

Looking at your team, I would play a pair Arsenal defence, remove Gvardiol and replace him with Saliba, then leave the midfield and attack as it is. I don't trust Westham to keep a clean sheet against Eveton since they have a tough European game this week and little time to prepare for the game against Everton.

[cryptofrka]

I'm reading 'Tsimikas' a lot here hahah.
Considering that Robertson is out and that Liverpool's really got a favorable schedule coming up, I took him as well.

Gusto is the victim, but Chelsea's fixture list looks terrible. The price difference is bearable as well - and Tsimikas' price should rise quite fast.

Thanks to both for your answers, ok well im gonna look carefull where i put my transfers , is becoming dificult to choose. I want to put one Chelsea player. More nearby to the weekend i make the movement, now is UCL time.

[NotATether]

So you tell me @NotATether, who the hell do I put in my lineup?  

I also say put in Saliba and Isak

Zouma => Saliba
JWP => Isak

I actually went as far as selling JWP because even his free kicks are bit rubbish at the moment. But it was nice when he played up front

[CLS63]

Could you tell me your thoughts about my squad? I'm aware that I have taken a risk without Haaland however I'm not doing bad at all so far. Dalot is making a contribution which is above my expectation. I need to find a way to add Trippier and Alvarez to my squad in some way.

I would get rid of Richarlison asap. Triple spurs mid is way too much, I can understand Son and Madison since they are great but why Richarlison?
Martinelli, Bowen, Diaby and Mitoma would be top of the list for me if you have the money or even somebody like Neto/Gordon/Palmer if you need to save some money.

Other than that your team looks good to me.

[cryptofrka]

Isak taken off today in 17th minute, who's panicking?
Didn't look that serious at first, but considering he could not continue he should be unavailable for a few games at least. A great time to go for Wilson?

I do have Watkins and Alvarez though, and have already made a transfer for this round. Maybe the right time for a first wildcard?

Thank you for the recommendations. I have Richarlison/Palmer and Burn/Trippier changes in my mind to make right now. However I need to wait for 2 weeks to make these changes because now I don't have any free transfer right.

Ulven, I liked the score boards you were publishing quite much by the way. Why did you give up on sharing them

Ulven is banned, I don't know any details like if it is permanent or just for some time or what for. Never was the one to go looking deep into such cases, hate Meta part of the forum.

Anyway he is missing for quite some time now so I don't think we are getting those tables back unless somebody else feels like doing them. I know I will not, have more than enough table works for BSFL every week  And official table here works good enough for me.
