Hopefully Saka's injury is not very serious, and he will be available for the Nottingham Forest game after the international break.

Same here. I only sold him because I honestly thought it was a proper hamstring and you generally stay away a bit if you pull that proper. Worked out in the end as I replaced him with Mbeumo, and the cheaper guy has performed just as well.

Now it is time to poison Wissa and Bruno Fernandes

Do it!!! You know, I've come a long way in FPL. I ditched my gambles in Nunez, my expensive Trent, and finally succumbed to having City assets (Haaland not the least). But the one thing I have not been able to seriously consider is United players. I like Bruno a hell lot, and Rashford before he became a sulky droopy shoulders waste of support, the former especially should be a bargain if his form has truly returned. I can't make space for him though, so feel free to poison them!

[Harkorede]

Gosh, I should have waited!!!

The winner of this pool will be the player who is both lucky with the changes they make and those they don't make each week. The Solanke move seemed pretty good, but it turned out bad.

Smartvirus felt captaining Wood would pay off, which turned out to be another bad decision. Some people brought in Bruno Fernandez, and the move paid off in the last GW; Trofo, Igebotz, cryptofrka picked Dalot, and it was almost a good decision if not for the early substitution out.

What I am saying is that there is really no established method to ensure you are making the right decisions and picks; you simply cannot know before time, you just have to make your choice and then hope.

I couldn’t agree more, winning the pool will come down to getting a lot of things right, especially transfer and changes, the Solanke move was properly calculated imo, of all other candidates I thought of bringing in I did check their next run of fixtures, but I somehow missed it in the case of Solanke, I got completely shortsighted by the fact that they were playing Ipswich, I could live with McNeil for Brenan Johnson knowing the former was injured, but Solanke for Jackson didn’t feel good at all, I only figured immediately I made the transfer, If transfer weren’t irreversible I sure as hell would have cancelled it before the gameweek started, but it’s time to move on now.

I had 3 Tottenham players last week but Tottenham's performance against Ipswich was absolutely disappointing. I thought that I would be able to get some extra points by selecting Solanke as the captain. When it comes to this GW I activated my Wildcard and the first I thing I did was to sell Haaland. I transferred a few players whose price might increase to protect myself.

Using a wildcard now sure would feel like having/using a superpower, especially when one isn’t particularly doing terrible to begin with.

You’ve finally pulled the plug on Haaland, I’ll probably never grow the balls too, unless he gets injured or something (like everyone else not having him) then I’ll consider it deeply.

[NotATether]

Welp. The prizes have become much more valuable.

Meanwhile I am flailing around in 17th-19th.

My bench seems to be good for now except for Jacob Greaves who I will be wasting no transfers on.

[Harkorede]

Welp. The prizes have become much more valuable.

It will be Lambo for the first prize by the time the league comes to an end and we're at $500k 


-----------------------------

8 players have reportedly withdrew from England squad, at least that's good news for those that plan on bringing some of them in to replace of Haaland, hopefully they'd be fit just in time before the resumption. TAA is my major concern, I don't think I want to spend a transfer on any defender just yet, although he ties down a fortune, but I'm still partially fine with him being in my squad.

TAA in this new system isn't worth that money. Yes he still has one of better balls in the game but he just isn't that attacking as he was under Klopp. Better for Liverpool considering how they are defending this season but much worse for him as FPL asset. If I was on a wildcard I would probably go with Konate. If he stay fit he is definitely best points per million player in Liverpool defense.

Don't forget that TAA is a dead ball specialist and that LFC usually tend to be near the top of the league in goals scored from set pieces.
Hasn't been like that this season, but it will probably revert to the average at some point in the season.

He's on 1 assist so far, that's really low compared to where he should be.

Because of a few health problems I have had I couldn't allocate enough time for the forum and pools this year. I won much less points than I needed to because of not being able to take care of my fantasy squad most of the time. However I'm still feeling myself lucky as I'm still in a place to be able to get a prize this season. I'm going to cause you trouble by taking care of my team much more in the rest of the season.

Sorry about your health challenges, sure you’re doing much better now and feel better motivated with the pump in BTC price. It’s going to get even more attractive come next year but until then, all hands have to be on deck.
Just wish I had a better start and enough about the E. Haaland thing, it’s more about making good use of the remaining GWs to better position your team else, season would be gone and it would be a struggling to better place yourself. This could as well be my worst season still. Hope to make something of it in the coming days.

[Trofo]

That is exactly my point. He is too expansive for what he provides. Same with Haaland, it isn't that he isn't scoring it is that he isn't scoring enough for his price tag.

If you look at TAA. You can get for same price Trent + 4M bench fodder or something like Gvardiol/Gabriel + good 4.5M defender and still have 0.5 in the bank.

I just wish I still had my wildcard option for this GW12, because there are many potential better options that I would have made in my attack, midfield, and defense, but I don't have enough transfers banked for it.

This season is not looking like Arsenal's season; injury will be the end of us. Trossard picked up an injury in the international break; as to the extent of the injury, we are yet to know. He is very crucial for our attack and can affect our ability to score goals. If Trossard stays out for a long time, we will have to depend on Martinelli that most times in this season has looked clueless on the ball.

[darxiaomi]

I only hope to not see so many red warnings above any of my players after this awful and boring international break.
We need to work on any to resolve this boring weeeks without proper football.

That is the problem, with Arne Slot Liverpools enters in a "economic" way of playing, not more ton of goals assist etc, now is all in efficiency, and with that TAA and Robertson are not paying until now for Fantasy.

Not just them, any Liverpool asset other than Salah (and Konate) didn't really do well.
Diaz started strong so he can be in 'decent' department, everything else is a no-go for me.

Slot heavily rotates the offensive line, midfielders aren't creative enough to warrant a place in the team and defenders are mostly too expensive only for clean sheets.

[Rruchi man]

... and defenders are mostly too expensive only for clean sheets.

Liverpool's clean sheet record will be further challenged. There is concern for Van Dijk; he has pulled out from international duties, and his fitness will be a concern ahead of the tough run of games they will be having in the EPL and UCL.

Slot will hope that his injury chapter has not started. That can affect the very good start he has had with his career at Anfield.

We shall see, Christmas time crazy schedule coming up. There will be a lot of rotations and those players that play 90 minutes every game will become super important. Too bad if Van Dijk is out, he was one of them and i considered taking him just because of that. I don't think anyone else in Liverpool defense will play almost all minutes. Arsenal players could become super important since Arteta doesn't rotate his main guys.

Virgil will be fine. It was just a precaution so that he doesn't get unnecessarily injured. He's probably a yellow flag anyway, so I wouldn't be too concerned about this if I was trying to get him.

That being said, go get some defenders who can score headers. Aina Gvardiol Konate VVD Gabriel etc.

Most times you get to see some players being pulled out from international games after a clash that looks like an injury scene because they have a bigger game ahead in their individual clubs. And the international coach has promised to return the player safely. Van Dijk is an important player in the Liverpool squad, he should be prevented from getting injured ahead of the big games coming after the international break.

That being said, go get some defenders who can score headers. Aina Gvardiol Konate VVD Gabriel etc.

The players you mentioned are good defenders who can score with their heads often. But their coach is not ready to sell them yet.

[cryptofrka]

Damn, so many options to choose from. I will surely change 5 players, maybe more.

Saka and Palmer both doubtful, I'm quite sure both will play the full 90. What to do with Haaland though?

New Contract for Guardiola (not as if it matters, though), but Haaland 5 Goals + Assists in two games over the break have me rolling my eyes  , he had just two in the previous break, however that on the hand does mean he's not going to be as fully rested as Palmer or Saka.


I've said it ad nauseam already but I want to have the two transfer I wasted just before the break back, I really want to go all out with no further international break coming this year, I might be taking points hit
