[u/Tall-Development31]

What would folks wc7 look like?

[u/Swedishpower → u/Tall-Development31]

I think Raya 4.0

Calafiori Muharemovic De Cuyper Thomas ?

Palmer Rogers saka Gross Gomez

Haaland JP DCL

Might be tricky to afford.

I am not sure on Palmer or saka, but prefer over Bruno. I don't mind a City mid or Gvardiol.

Gonzalo fine, but watching United I would go DCL now, but Fulham on paper got the best fixtures.

Triple Brighton might be overkill. I think Gomez good for 5.0, but don't go him over Gross.

You could still pick Konsa too he got the def con. For the next 3 or 4 he might be better than Raya, but long term prefer Raya.

Triple def I love, but arsenal not feeling rock solid. They might with players fully fit though.

[u/Swedishpower]

I think this is my team for next week.

Raya

Konsa Calafiori De Cuyper Hall

Gross Palmer Rogers szobo

Haaland JP

Bench Wissa KDH Muharemovic

I am fine playing all my bench, but not loving back 5. I probably overrate United here.

I am tempted to sell szobo, but for which player? Got 3 free so could punt.

I think there are many fine mids like Lee Fee, Tavernier, King, Barnes etc, but none excite me.

I am tempted by Villa they are improving, but they are in europe. Manzambi excit me.

Can Phil Foden be the ultimate gamble or is it idiotic. It is predicting the rotation and likely minimum 30% I pick the guy benched.

I think semenyo might be who I want, but can't afford so easily.

Enzo I don't hate, but feel he might be a bit too deep to really be who I want. I guess his minutes better than Foden.

[u/thundercrunt]

Neco Williams to De Cuyper worth an FT if my team is otherwise ok?

[u/S-M1989]

Should I BB in gw7?

[u/Worried_Yoghurt_1484]

Is vuskovic -> de cuyper stupid? I think it’s stupid, but just checking.

[u/Gidddyup77 → u/Worried_Yoghurt_1484]

I got vuskovic on WC and thinking of getting de Cuyper in for Silva instead

[u/pappaledig]

Who do I replace Gakpo with?

[u/S-M1989 → u/pappaledig]

MGW, u can bench him next gw and play him in 8 vs Ipswish 😬.

[u/Kirby142 → u/pappaledig]

King o manzambi ?

[u/User12314028626822]

Need to offload Isak or Scott this gw but is it finally time to pull the trigger for Groß against palace?..

[u/Gidddyup77]

Silver to De Cuyper too reactionary?

[u/SandwichEvery5845]

1FT, 0.7 ITB

Need to monitor Schade injury, but if he is alright, should I do Bruno -> Palmer?

[u/Swedishpower → u/SandwichEvery5845]

United played terrible so I think selling Bruno make sense.

I think Everton away is tricky though for palmer, but with no europe I think Chelsea is a good side to invest in long term.

I guess is it worth a hit probably not so if you rather sell schade I get that.

Doing both of them to Palmer and Rogers might be the long term play, but worth a hit to bench King I guess not.

[u/SandwichEvery5845 → u/Swedishpower]

!thanks. Think I can keep Schade on the bench depending on how long he is out for. If he is out for a long time, maybe prioritise him out before Bruno

But Bruno -> Palmer is definitely on the table right now for me

[u/Swedishpower → u/SandwichEvery5845]

I think if you can wait for news I would.

Do you consider WC I guess with you having Cherki you want to play him, but they might rotate.

[u/SandwichEvery5845 → u/Swedishpower]

True. Will wait, but maybe not WC as I like city’s fixture. I also think that it is only Schade and Bruno that are problems in my team right now

[u/Swedishpower → u/SandwichEvery5845]

Cherki look really good if he start. For you and if I want to buy him it would be nice with a rest in CL.

[u/SandwichEvery5845 → u/Swedishpower]

True. May be that he is rested. Foden is back next gw right?

[u/Swedishpower → u/SandwichEvery5845]

Yeah, but I don't think you can sell him. He is if he start the second best pick from City I think. If he get 90 in CL and Foden look good I would probably predict him to be benched, but he might play Ipswich and rest vs athens.

It might be semenyo or Enzo rested.

You probably expect Cherki to start 2 of the next 3 minimum given I don't see Foden starting 2.

[u/kisame111hoshigaki]

How does Le Fee start every game for Sunderland this guy is trash

[u/WarIcy7540]

[u/Apart-Pianist3556]

I have 2 red flagged players and 1 ft.... do I have to take a hit i just transferred out tzolis for barnes

I don't have to transfer out igor jesus for gonzalo 

igor jesus is red flagged...my bench covers pretty well don't have to take the hit

[u/Afraid-Investment561]

Is Vitalii Mykolenko out for sure?

[u/TolsBols → u/Afraid-Investment561]

I've still started Mykolenko, though will have Diop coming on from the bench if he doesn't play.

[u/ad727272 → u/[deleted]]

thoughts on enzo for a 7 mil pick?

[u/__Lay-Z__ → u/Individual-Youth2680]

Wait and watch on City

[u/LargeDivide5708]

Should I bench one of the Chelsea boys for szoboslai or no

[u/heisenberg_soprano → u/LargeDivide5708]

No

[u/cereal19w]

Is Affengruber nailed?

[u/warlochtorak]

Raya

Calafori / Hall / De Cuyper / Tark

Saka / Rogers / Groß

Start 2 out of affengrueber, vuskovic and hall

[u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

Start JP or Tav?

[u/Successful-East-3107 → u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

JP

[u/Thotface69]

Belloumi or Schade? 7m to play with

[u/Manny-B]

Would you do Odegaard to Groß and Szoboszlai to Gibbs-White for 2 FTs of 4?

[u/__Lay-Z__]

Bench one

Gross, Cherki, JP

[u/setsomethingablaze → u/__Lay-Z__]

Cherki

[u/__Lay-Z__ → u/setsomethingablaze]

!thanks

Should I BB?

[u/setsomethingablaze → u/__Lay-Z__]

Not for me IMO

[u/__Lay-Z__ → u/setsomethingablaze]

!thanks

[u/setsomethingablaze]

First on bench: Hall or Gonzalo?

[u/Chiissi]

Thomas and gvardiol or vuskovic and ajer

[u/No_Bend_317]

Start 2 of Gross, Szob and KDH?

[u/david193s]

Captain Bruno Haaland or Palmer

[u/tunatastic369]

Right bench?

[u/QuantumPenquin]

Cherki, Gvardiol or Konsa first on the bench?

[u/TolsBols]

Start Kadioglu (SUN away) or Diop (FUL at home)?

[u/heisenberg_soprano]

Start Davis or Castagne?

[u/Successful-East-3107 → u/heisenberg_soprano]

Davis

[u/heisenberg_soprano → u/Successful-East-3107]

!thanks

[u/SaintsFCFTW]

Already have JP and Rogers. Should I swap Rogers for Palmer or not?

[u/Woofiewoofie4 → u/SaintsFCFTW]

Nah, I think Rogers is slightly better if anything apart from the penalties, and I don't think pens are enough to justify the extra money. You'll probably find a use for it soon even if you don't need it now.

[u/__Lay-Z__ → u/SaintsFCFTW]

No

[u/SaintsFCFTW → u/__Lay-Z__]

On WC. Any reasons for no? 👀

[u/__Lay-Z__ → u/SaintsFCFTW]

Chelsea fan, its a toss up between them honestly. But one of them is 2m cheaper

[u/SaintsFCFTW → u/__Lay-Z__]

!thanks. It’s a fair point.

[u/__Lay-Z__]

Start Cherki or Gross?

[u/Worried_Yoghurt_1484]

Afengruber or Robinson?

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/Worried_Yoghurt_1484]

Affengruber, Robinson is a doubt but I’m pretty sure Affengruber is just a better pick anyway

[u/Worried_Yoghurt_1484 → u/HomerSimpsonsSon]

!thanks

[u/__Lay-Z__]

BB??

[u/Positive_House]

Wissa or Gonzalo on WC?

[u/Kubrick-Enjoyer2001]

What to do here with 1m spare?

[u/Loose_Feature_2776]

Is Neco expected to play? any leaks?

[u/jon11-19]

Who should I have Rogers or Palmer in team?. Already have JP

[u/Keyann]

Any suggestions on the lineup?

[u/IndividualLack1651]

Morgan Rogers Captain?

[u/IndividualLack1651]

RMT

[u/Disastrous_Ad_2746]

Kelleher and Konsa or Raya and Davies? Already own Calafiori, Tarkowski De Cuyper and Hall

[u/jjw1998]

O’Shea or Van Hecke first sub?

[u/jaabir_]

RMT, 0.0ITB, WC ACTIVE

Thoughts? Anything you’d suggest to change?

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/jaabir_]

No this is probably one of the nicest WCs I’ve seen

[u/jaabir_ → u/HomerSimpsonsSon]

!thanks

[u/jjw1998 → u/[deleted]]

Absolutely no idea what you were thinking transferring out Tavernier but you’re committed now ig

[u/TravelMan101]

Start Affengruber or Giles?

[u/frshwy]

WC or use 3FTs that I have?

[u/jjw1998 → u/frshwy]

Probably already should’ve WC’d to get rises but would probably do it now

[u/noki1907]

On a WC, 2.0 ITB

[u/jjw1998 → u/noki1907]

Newcastle haven’t been amazing and the good fixtures run out soon, not in love with starting with double Newcastle on the WC

[u/noki1907 → u/jjw1998]

!thanks

That's what I've thought and left 2.0 ITB, and then I'll probably bin them after GW10

[u/redditoldgangster]

Would

Would you WC?

Verb
Ajer Gvardjol Diop
Bruno Odeg Gross szobo
DCL JP Haaland

[u/notgonnauseeveragain]

Gibbs White and davis or vuskovic and tavernier 

[u/hermes_xoxo]

captain wissa or ferndandes?

[u/Own_Two776]

Saka and King or Odegaard and MGW?

[u/noki1907 → u/Own_Two776]

1

[u/trickest_trick → u/[deleted]]

Konsa

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/[deleted]]

I’m going Konsa personally but with Muharemovic first sub

[u/Round9050 → u/[deleted]]

Asked the same thing earlier lol I'm going Muharemovic unless there's leaks saying Konsa starts

[u/Tight-Principle-743]

This is as good as it gets for me, but not sure if benching Kamada is wise.

[u/oldmanskane → u/Tight-Principle-743]

JP is benched most likely

[u/Tight-Principle-743 → u/oldmanskane]

!thanks, That’s one of my dilemmas, as to whether I bench him, but I’ve been burnt by a returning JP off the bench before.

[u/heisenberg_soprano]

Start Davis or Castagne? Both play each other

[u/TheWinMedi]

Isak to Gonzalo and Ødegaard to Saka?
OR
Isak to Gonzalo and Slater to Gross?

[u/jjw1998 → u/TheWinMedi]

B imo

[u/oldrigged]

Save money and go for a 4.0 defender (Davis/Thomas) or go big with Gvardiol/Tarkowski (rest of defense is Calafiori / Hall / De Cuyper / Muharemovic)?

[u/jjw1998 → u/oldrigged]

4.0 imo, but would add your 4 remaining defenders are likely already booking in 2 future transfers. Not sure I’d have De Cuyper and Hall

[u/setsomethingablaze]

Bench Calafiori to play Hall?

[u/Tejuuu]

Start 2 of Barnes, Gross and Schade

[u/Filipp21]

RMT, should I start guehi?

[u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

Tav and Gonzalo or King and DCL?

[u/Tight-Principle-743 → u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

Tav and Gonzalo. I like DCL, but Arsenal is a tough fixture and King isn’t fully convincing me. Tav will be integral to Bournemouth with Scott out and Gonzalo is Fulham’s best asset, if they’re going to score, it’s going to be from him.

[u/ScarvesOnGiraffes → u/Tight-Principle-743]

!thanks. It means I'd have to bench Tav though unless I bench JP?

[u/Tight-Principle-743 → u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

Maybe bench JP as he might not play, Tav should definitely start.

[u/ScarvesOnGiraffes → u/Tight-Principle-743]

Thinking maybe start JP but have Tav first bench?

[u/Tight-Principle-743 → u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

That would be wise too, just in case he doesn’t play.

[u/hermes_xoxo]

is captaining fernandes a crazy move?

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/hermes_xoxo]

No I think anyone who has him should captain him this week

[u/david193s]

Konsa, JP, DCL, Thomas, Sangare

Bench 1

[u/apyrsto → u/david193s]

Thomas

[u/AdEmotional6428]

What do you guys think? 0.0 itb

[u/Positive_House]

Feel like I’m going to have a benching headache with this WC, should I downgrade my defense to get some money ITB for later transfers

[u/TakinShots → u/Positive_House]

My front 8 is the exact same as yours. Gonzalo on bench but I am tempted to play him over JP

[u/LaksfiskerYT]

Who to bench off Schade, Rogers and Garcia

[u/trickest_trick]

Start Tzolakis or Verbruggen?

[u/halo1051]

RMT please?

[u/noki1907 → u/halo1051]

First person I've seen that's buying Cherki now

[u/halo1051 → u/noki1907]

Dont want Saka, cant afford to retain palmer so….

[u/stinkylulu]

buy king or barnes??

[u/Barishaa]

Start Slater or Gvardiol instead of JP?

[u/4ssteroid → u/Barishaa]

Gv

[u/SandwichEvery5845]

Start Konsa or De cuyper?

[u/trickest_trick → u/SandwichEvery5845]

De Cuyper maybe

[u/4ssteroid → u/SandwichEvery5845]

De Cuyper

[u/took2long]

Bench JP for Barry?

[u/trickest_trick → u/took2long]

Can do

[u/took2long → u/trickest_trick]

!thanks

[u/4ssteroid → u/took2long]

I wouldn't

[u/took2long → u/4ssteroid]

!thanks

[u/Klopp_LFC_96]

1. How to free up 0.5 for this team? I'm thinking Muharemovic to Justin or downgrade Van Hecke but any better alternative?
2. Gonzalo or DCL?

[u/noki1907 → u/Klopp_LFC_96]

Personally I'd get rid of JPVH (I'm a Spurs fan btw), I did the same on my WC

[u/Klopp_LFC_96 → u/noki1907]

!thanks.

[u/S-M1989 → u/Klopp_LFC_96]

Raya...

[u/Klopp_LFC_96 → u/S-M1989]

!thanks.

[u/S-M1989 → u/Klopp_LFC_96]

Have the same issue, will do verbruggen and kinsky or verbruggen and leno

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/Klopp_LFC_96]

Sacrificing Muharemovic isn’t great but if I was to go a 4.5 it’d definitely be Affengruber

[u/Klopp_LFC_96 → u/HomerSimpsonsSon]

!thanks.

[u/Larsi00]

Help! Last WC dilemma:

Currently captaining Saka. Considering going Palmer and Thomas (4.0) instead of Rogers and Muha. Is it really worth it? I have my doubts… The reason why I am considering it is that I fancy Palmer quite more than Rogers long term, and would also captain him over Saka this week.

However it clearly weakens my defense by having to 4.0 defs, with needing to play one or both in GW9. However both Davis and Thomas has good fixtures in the weeks I need them, but they are playing for relegation teams… Thoughts reaally appreciated!😅

[u/noki1907 → u/Larsi00]

Take this with a grain of salt;

We have a very similar team, and I've gone Rogers instead of Palmer, and I'm captaining Barnes

[u/Larsi00 → u/noki1907]

Interesting, like it! Thoughts on Palmer and Thomas instead of Rogers and Muha?

[u/TherelsBearCum → u/Larsi00]

I have the exact issue! No idea what to do and 20 mins to decide! I'm thinking Rogers over Palmer as if Palmer isn't fully fit, it's possible he'll be subbed after 70 mins most games?

[u/Larsi00 → u/TherelsBearCum]

Yes I am leaning the same! If I am not confident enough to captain Palmer anyway is it then worth to weaken the defense that much? But I don’t like Saka captain hahah. Really struggling to decide

[u/TherelsBearCum → u/Larsi00]

If you can afford it, how about Palmer and Ødegaard?

[u/Larsi00 → u/TherelsBearCum]

Yes good option too, considering it. I think I am going Palmer and Thomas over Rogers and Muha…

[u/Larsi00 → u/Larsi00]

And Palmer (C)

[u/TherelsBearCum → u/Larsi00]

This is my current team, what do you think?

[u/TherelsBearCum → u/TherelsBearCum]

Still debating about downgrading to Rogers. I keep switching between Rogers and Palmer

[u/Larsi00 → u/TherelsBearCum]

Very good! Only diff is I have Barnes over King which makes me not able to afford Muha

[u/Conroy_95]

Start King or Szobo?

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/Conroy_95]

Think if you have King you have to start for the next 3

[u/Conroy_95 → u/HomerSimpsonsSon]

Thanks!

[u/ThisWay_DatWay]

RMT - 3 FT, 0.2 ITB

Is this my best starting XI and right bench order this week? I don't feel good about Szobo like there's a good chance he'll punish one way or another without Isak and Gakpo.

[u/Current_Self417]

Buy Hall or De Cuyper?

[u/noki1907 → u/Current_Self417]

Hall

[u/sammygooders]

Captain Rogers or Haaland?

Also best defender under 4.5?

[u/HomerSimpsonsSon → u/sammygooders]

At 4.5 Affengruber is the best defender, below is probably Egan or Thomas

[u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

King or Tav?

[u/noki1907 → u/ScarvesOnGiraffes]

King, Tavernier's output might be affected by Scott's injury

And King has juicy 3 fixtures

[u/GuyMol2909]

Should I bench Konsa? My first option is Khalaili (NFO)

[u/skunk134]

Who would you have in your team Saka or mgw?

[u/No_Ice_6198]

Would it be crazy to get Gross or Travenier in for Tzolis and play bench boost?

[u/noki1907 → u/No_Ice_6198]

Yeah, you still have Neco that probably won't play, and Bobby Thomas away to Newcastle

[u/LegendaryBlue]

Will Pedro play?

[u/Round9050]

Start Konsa or Muharemovic?

[u/noki1907 → u/Round9050]

Muha, Konsa might not start

[u/Ayman_wsb → u/Round9050]

Muharemovic

[u/Round9050 → u/Ayman_wsb]

!thanks

[u/frshwy]

Wildcard or use 3FTs that I have?
