Draft 6:
Youāre clearly on the ball
Hereās what Iāve got - itās pretty rogue I know but Iāve got 3.0 itb so itāll be easy for me to upgrade Darwin to Haaland or Kane.
Iām actually not 100% on Darwin so will likely still change him.
I will keep Martinelli for the first few weeks as I think he might really be enabled by having Jesus in the team, and then switch him out for potentially Lingaard once their fixtures ease up.
Want to see how Sancho does as well otherwise tempted to put Rashford in as heās 1.0 cheaper but theyāve both looked sharp in pre-season.
Iām still gonna keep tinkering and I donāt see myself stick with the defence I currently have.
Jesus is currently the most selected player in the game. I was surprised to see Salah is in 56% of teams though. A lot of teams I have seen donāt have him in ![]()
I donāt have Salah. Weāll see how he performs during the Community Shield, but Iāve gone for Son, Kane, and Haaland atm.
I think a lot of people have avoided Salah because his form wasnāt great at the end of last season and Mane has left so players like Haaland, Kane, Son, KDB, etc are better value.
Iām still not sure about picking Chelsea players.
Sterling is quite expensive for 10m but theyāve got Havertz upfront at 8m and James in defence for 6m looks decent value.
Iāve gone for Son and Haaland but I canāt afford both them and Kane.
Son has regularly got points and this season he could be even better.
Iāve gone Son and Haaland too. And I have James.
Though, you had quite a bad second half of the season, so perhaps I should do the opposite of what you do ![]()
Rogue indeed haha
If it bangs youāre flying up the table but if not then thatās a big olā dose of max pain lol
And who the hell is Matthews? Is Butland not their reserve keeper any more?
Yeah exactly, high risk high reward. It is what it is, but Iāve tried playing it safe in the past and it didnāt really get me anywhere. Fully expecting this to flop but weāll see.
Pretty good chance I downgrade KDB though and upgrade Darwin to Kane as Iām not sure on KDB and Pep Roulette or Darwin hitting the ground running.
My strategy this year is to basically pick every player I want to perform poorly.
Every year, I end up selecting players I want to perform well and then am left disapointed when they donāt. Then when I drop the player, they seem to perform again, so by that logic, I am excluding all Arsenal players and including as many Chavski, Spuds & Pool players as I can afford
So many ways you can approach it this season, Iām really considering no Salah as well.
Also with having what amounts to 3 wildcards you can scrap it early if it goes tits up lol
It was the other way round and the first half of the season my team was useless.
After my FF account was hacked I changed the team and top scored in a couple of game weeks and was usually in the top four. ![]()
Iām tempted by Richarlison for 8m but Iām going to avoid any Man City midfielders.
I know I say it every season but Guardiola and his constant rotation is too much, although Rodri for 6m might be worth a punt.
Imagine even thinking about putting Cedric in your team! Neto is a good shout though, heās in my current starting XI - Wolves have a good first game too.
Itās not a bad team other than Cedric as you say, but I wonāt be taking a risk on Evertonās defence regardless of Mykolenkoās attacking output potential.
Iād have Zaha in my team if the fixtures were better
Draft 4 did one early on my pc and forgot to save it ![]()
So this is the one I been working on my night shift.
Possible swap one off the GK for Leno once heās confirmed heās off to Fulham.
White is the one I am worried about. I have White. But people seem to think Saliba > White. And even if White is RB, heāll just be filling in:
Yeah I think white will start at RB for the season but I think it be white/gabs partnership and Sab to rotate in the league. Saliba main game time will cup games and off the bench for the league.
Thatās my thinking anyway.
Arsenal had a great clean sheet record with Gabriel, White, Tomi last season, and I donāt see Saliba upsetting that in his first season in the prem, (excluding normal rotation). At least for the start of the season anyway.
With the extra wildcard there should be any issues with his gametime before you play your first one
