I changed Haaland to Doku at the last minute because I thought Trofo had him 😂 I'm a little surprised that there are only 2 players who have Haaland.. I made a few stupid choices this round but I hope i get enough points to keep me from falling far behind on the event table.

I literally also changed Haaland to Cherki after seeing the lineup with Cherki in starting XI, and all of a sudden Cherki didn’t play 90 minutes and Haaland got an assist, it was probably dumb to go for Cherki anyways considering that the he only has 4 assist more than Haaland before this game, that’s official assist btw, not fantasy assist which could vary, so if you look at the difference in goals Haaland more than makes up for that number, but you don’t to get beaten by the entire populace in this kind of situation.

I also decided to go with Cherki and even made him the captain so that's a fail. It's funny that when I decide not to go with Haaland, he scores a goal or make a assist. But when I have him in my team, he does nothing to get me points.

Finally Trofo has a bad round but you still have 1 player left.. Who do you have left? Calvert-Lewin or Richarlison? I think you most likely have Richarlison😁 but everything will be decided between Cherki and Doku but lets see if any of them start on the bench 😂 I am currently in 4th place in both event and this GW 36 round not so bad

He's got like 5 assists this season and was far from the ideal pick in this round. Cherki looked on fire and then put in a stinker - let's see if he'll even play the CP game considering that the FA Cup final is on Saturday.
My alternative was to captain O'Reilly and have Wharton in midfield - so a bit better from where I currently stand.

Overall a terrible round for me - and I felt like my team is brilliant

slackovic I done the same. I can't believe that he and Semenyo played superbly for a period of time. When I switched to them for Halland and Doku, they started to score and assist.
For me, it's quite frustrating—especially when you’ve had an okay round and expect to do well in the next few rounds, but then you end up performing poorly with only 15 to 20 points.
They manage to destroy Brentford and the man doesn't do absolute nothing I think that it will be the same against CP as well.

Of course I have Richarlison, now let's see if he will do anything for me. Hate that guy but he always delivers, a goal and 2 assists would be just about perfect 

City game against Palace could hold some surprises with the team, let's see how it looks.

[darxiaomi]

Another horrible round for me, it is incredible how low amount of points im getting right now, is like im making all the bad calls and also having 0 luck in the pick of players but well at least im not fighting for so much in the weekend overall.

Also not so much players giving assits in this round which ruins the archetype.

No goals or assists from Richarlison.. And Tottenham disappointed again with 1-1.. Now everything will be decided between Cherki against Doku.. But we never know what the starting lineup will be😁 But lets see tomorrow 

[slackovic]

Oh man what a horrible round so far... I have four players that played their games and managed to collect only 14 points so far. I have two more players that will play the City - Crystal Palace game, but I don't know how much points can I expect from them. Probably not much. Because of that I have fallen to the 6th place of the event.

[cryptofrka]

Yeah, this round will be tough to all that did not select Haaland.
Now I'm between 2 fires - I'm well positioned in this pool but need Cherki to do something - and in the main pool I have Semenyo so I need him to outscore Cherki.

Ideally Cherki assists 2 of Semenyo's goals and we all end up happy

[Jinetics1111]

What a terrible round won't finish top 5 this week also but still looking quite good in the event standings only 2 more to go and next week is the damn GK spotlight can imagine we all will have the same goalie here, but the last week is the butter on the mash every player on a winning team 10 points can''t wait for that. I just wanna finish top 5 and i'll be satisfied for sure I see my guy cryptofrka ahead by a few hopefully I can make a little more ground tomorrow, I know pep might throw a wrench into the plans but we shall see.

If only wishes were horses, right, but that still doesn't generally help in the main where you still need Haaland to do his wonders, at least for me that's the case I'd want a Haaland hattrick considering I have my triple captain chip activated and that could be the last significant difference maker for me this season.

[Jinetics1111]

I need to Doku to get a goal and an assist today if he indeed plays seeing they have FA Cup on the weekend that would be great in the event standings as I'm trailing first by a little and the players below aren't too far behind either, need to create some space between us so that I can guarantee a spot in the top 5 when it's all said and done.

Doku isn’t in the starting lineup, neither is Haaland nor Cherki, and I strongly doubt anyone has Semenyo due to recent form, he’s the only player who anyone could have picked in the starting lineup, so it’s Guardiola f*king everyone over, I’ll probably expect Haaland to still get some reps in this match, except Man City somehow find a way to put the game beyond reach inside 60 minutes or there about.

Yeah I had a feeling we might get screwed with Pep roulette and as I checked I saw that none of our guys are in the starting lineups, it's all good they might see some time second half but we shall see but I'm kinda glad cause the top guys in the event have most of the guys not starting so it's cool.

[kristoffervp123]

Feeling lucky tripple capped semenyo now 

[Woodie]

With this lead, am hoping my guy Doku performs with those assists or goals , while Pep decides not to bring on Haaland just to keep him fresh for the next assignment that awaits them..

We all know Arsenal can't win all of their games and City is counting on that, that.is why they are getting a minimum of 2goals difference in each game.. come on Citeh 2 more goals with some Doku involvement 

Inplay prediction Citeh 4-0 Palace 

[Jinetics1111]

Well this sucks Doku didn't do nothing and he played a lot more time than Cherki in the end gonna get the bump a few notches most likely now, onto the next week which is the GK event I'm so joyous for this (not really) pretty straightforward nothing to see here.

[cryptofrka]

Heh, Cherki did good after all
Will probably help me keep the top spot - will check properly tomorrow after all the points will be added.

The next one is a bit weird - extra points to goalkeepers with only 2 viable options to pick.
With Arsenal at home to Burnley Raya seems like the obvious call but I think there's a better way to play this.
