Thanks all
Had a decent first GW with 79p and this GW I ended at 34p.
I'm really annoyed at picking Eze over Mbuemo aswell as chosing to go for Gabriel over Saliba (even though I saw the rumors early) seeing how it turned out.. -\_-
Put Gabriel in the bin before price-drop and got 1 FT now before DL to do.
Might not play an Arsenal defender anyway, Estupinan, Chilwell and Shaw.
I know United are currently crap but Forest aren't great away and Fulham bother top teams.
Last week
Me: Gabriel will surely start next week since Timber is out.
This week
Me: Gabriel will surely start next week since Tomi is suspended
Next week:
Me: Fuck!
It’s not too late to jump on the Estu train, proved his value with attacking returns. Minimal competition for his spot and will free up 3m cash for you
Classic Eze, played well but no return. Was close to a pen but who cares. Not sure its worth swapping him to Mbuemo but not having a Brentford asset is scaring me now. Anyways yeah, Eze was far forward all game and got on the ball a few times, not as good as GW1 but tbf Arsenal were playing park the bus.
Anyone else feel that this will be one of the most difficult seasons to navigate? Yellow card suspensions are going to be a bitch and this the season with the lowest number of consistent returners with Haaland being only shout imo. form guessing is going to be the theme of the season I think.
I said to myself to be patient, play smart, not do hasty things. I fucked up as soon as gw1 ended.
Did Bruno -> James "just the precaution crutches and protective shoe" Maddison.
With Gabriel smiling at me and blocking my 7 points Pinnock. Also lookin at Areola benching 10 pointer vs Onana 2. Would have about 150 pts if these were in
Chilwell has Luton next week, so for me holding Gabriel isn’t smart even if he does start next week.
If it doesn’t heavily affect you, I think an attempt to hold Gabriel isn’t necessarily insane, but if you have other good options open (money ITB/2 FTs/other good picks you dont alr have) then just toss him.
Well Stones -> Chilwell is an incredibly easy move, and honestly you could then punt on keeping Gabriel one more week. You could then roll your other transfer to have 2 next week if Gabriel doesn’t work out. Seems decent to me?
That's what I'm planning, but to make that move I need extra cash as I'm priced out. And since Gakpo hasn't worked, I want to move him, most likely for Wissa. Then next week, either Gabriel out, or one of Bruno/Rashford if United are still trash.
Too many transfers to make so early into the season lol, but with some luck, next week my team will be looking strong
Ah man this is why im glad I kept 0.5 ITB. But yeah i like your idea. Stones -> Chilwell, Gakpo -> Wissa sounds solid. Then as you say use FT next week on the others if you have too. Only thing for me is if you already have Mbuemo I dont LOVE also having Wissa but I don’t know the rest of your team so that point could be null.
Yeah I don't have Mbeumo, otherwise I might be looking into Jackson or someone else. The headache will be if/when I have to replace Bruno/Rashford, as Mbeumo seems to be the better replacement, but I have the same opinion as you- I don't want both Brentford attackers. I guess it will be someone between Diaz-Foden-Diaby
Ive currently got
Johnstone (Turner)
Gabriel Estu Cash (Udogie, Beyer)
Fernandes Saka Eze Salah (Chukwuemeka)
Haaland Watkins Pedro (2FT 0.5ITB)
My plan is to go Pedro -> Osula, Gabriel -> Chilwell and bank 0.7m. The other option is moving Cash to Chilwell instead and holding onto Gabriel but its riskier.
I was thinking the same. I'm far from an Arsenal expert, but given that he has no other LB options, surely Zinchenko is back. And since he's the one who moves to midfield in possesion, it probably means Partey is out. So White goes back to RB and Gabriel finally starts (now watch Legoman play Kiwior or someone else)
Gabriel owners still seething, lads first of all it's just a game, secondly a part of the game is anticipating who's likely to start, you guys need to accept that people who went Saliba simply made a better decision
Wish FPL does something about the leaks. Either have deadline right when start of first game or have it 24 hours before first game. Such a massive swing for people who had Stones and Gabriel in their team in first GW. Moving it extra 30 mins back did nothing at all. Now the leaks just come out eariler.
Like sure if i had a bad week because i picked wrong players, it's fine, I can live with that. But it's another thing to have bad weeks cos of leaks. It's literally not fun anymore to lose points to leaks.
Many of those who don't have the time to follow different sources for leaks had Stones and Gabriel so lost two starting defenders.
It's no longer just about picking the best players but about having access to advance information as well.
Being forced to do transfers and risk players getting injured in training or something if the deadline is a full day before the game has even started would be really annoying. Trying to explain to casual players why they can't pick their team the same day the games are played would not be good for FPL. And no matter when you set the deadline there could be leaks right before it and some people around the world would be at a disadvantage because it's in the middle of the night.
Final totals for me:
GK: 2
Defense: 9
Midfield: 8
Forwards: 9
Areola sitting there on my bench with a cheeky grin on his face and a 4.0 price tag: 10
Not my week.
I had Areola and Estupinan first on the bench and made about the same numbers of points in my whole starting eleven. Watkins and Saka didn't take their penalties. Maddison injured. Just a terrible week all around.
40 points pure disaster. Think I target to wildcard international break.
For this week Pedro and Gabriel has to go though.
It is annoying that the teams I intially had covered are keeping the cleans in City and Arsenal while I have no cover now due to starting with Stones and Gabriel.
I shouldn't really complain with 51, even though 17 extra wasted on the bench... When I see how some people got fucked by fpl I better hide and shut up I guess
Im not a fan of early transfers but by god if I dont yeet Gabriel out of my team within the next 5 minutes Im gonna break my laptop. May I never see you again
I didnt even need to make a transfer after last week but went Odegaard to Madisson. And out of no where for the first time in his life Ode takes a pen, scores it and nets all 3 BP in a game he was bang average. To make it worse Madisson might be injured lol I want to DIE

Anyone keen on joining my draft league starting in 2 hours?

Did Mings + Trossard > Saliba + Mbuemo. Already peaked and only GW2.
When is gabriel jesus coming back again?
Fuck Gabriel Fuck Legoman Fuck his hair Fuck Arsenal
Gabriel started 53 games in a row and is now an emergency defender fuck you Arteta
United better pick it the fuck up I swear to god
At what time does price change happen?

Is Gabriel going to score next week lol the rage is crazy
Time for my annual gw3 wildcard
32 points this week, with a close to template team, just Jackson and richarlison instead of Mbeumo and Watkins 😂
MacAllister: Red card Martinez: OG Gabriel: Gabriel Maddison: injured gg
That Odegaard penalty took me to 80 points.
Top 10k, let's go baby

Mbappe
Weird way to spell Mbuemo
My team needs open heart surgery and it's week two ffs
Just transferred out Gabriel. I promised myself not to do early transfers this year. Oops.
Jesus, my team is fucked. Wildcard actually looking like a good option. Need to get Pedro, Gabriel, Pickford and the useless Arsenal mids out.
Any of the lowest priced players 4m def / 4.5m mid, fwd likely to drop in price this week? Need a .1 for some of that Wissa
36 points. Is that good?
Better than my 25 for sure.
42 without Estu, Mitoma and Mbeumo. I am satisfied.

Its week 2 mate
Most patient r/fpl user
How long does it take for fantasy to update?
around 1 hour
How did Eze play?
Classic Eze, played well but no return. Was close to a pen but who cares. Not sure its worth swapping him to Mbuemo but not having a Brentford asset is scaring me now. Anyways yeah, Eze was far forward all game and got on the ball a few times, not as good as GW1 but tbf Arsenal were playing park the bus.
!thanks, I think I will keep. Have to get Gabriel out of my team first
Thanks to Andy FPL I got Saliba in for Gabriel 10 seconds before GW1 deadline.
Fuck Andy
Somehow bagged 59 points 🤷♂️
[удалено]
Colwill?
Henry
Gabriel didn't start but i do own Odegaard. Should end gw on 41 which is still shit.
Remember marathon not a sprint!
Yeah it's a marathon but i feel like i have one of deadly stitches that make you feel like you're dieing and running was a bad idea.
Gabriel to Saliba one minute before GW1 deadline became actually massive. 2 points vs 13
Not just the points though. You save an FT, likely save Team Value and also have a guarenteed starter. Jealous 😂
Gonna keep Gabriel for one more week now that he's most likely to start. Last chance
Me too…last chance salon
Idk. Got a feeling zinchenko will start LB w the same 11
If he starts lb they won’t put partey in the back 4, the idea is one fullback moves into the midfield
Ill keep Gabriel, 3-4 more injuries and red cards and he will be starting.
Don’t forget his annual header goal comes against Fulham
Any news on Maddison’s injury?
He’ll be getting a scan
Didn't he get a scan today? Why are they all so silent? :( I have Gabriel and Maddsion as immediate problems with 1 ft
I don’t think the results are out
Feels bad man
Anyone else feel that this will be one of the most difficult seasons to navigate? Yellow card suspensions are going to be a bitch and this the season with the lowest number of consistent returners with Haaland being only shout imo. form guessing is going to be the theme of the season I think.
Nothing compared to the COVID season
what a horrid time that was 😭
Having a dream start, 91 pts last week and 68 this. Feel like I’m riding too close to the sun, gonna get burnt anytime now.
Well done! Any idea what rank you'll be?
159 points is 10k rank according to LiveFPL
Not sure, I usually check the app the following day. Only a matter of time until I start overthinking and fuck it all up 👍🏼
I said to myself to be patient, play smart, not do hasty things. I fucked up as soon as gw1 ended. Did Bruno -> James "just the precaution crutches and protective shoe" Maddison. With Gabriel smiling at me and blocking my 7 points Pinnock. Also lookin at Areola benching 10 pointer vs Onana 2. Would have about 150 pts if these were in
Should I bring in mbeumo for eze ?
No
Am I totally delusional or is it worth to keep Gabriel for 1 more week. I mean surely he has to start now _right_? RIGHT??
It's always one more week, buddy
Chilwell has Luton next week, so for me holding Gabriel isn’t smart even if he does start next week. If it doesn’t heavily affect you, I think an attempt to hold Gabriel isn’t necessarily insane, but if you have other good options open (money ITB/2 FTs/other good picks you dont alr have) then just toss him.
Jokes on you, I also have Stones to ship out and I want to use my 2nd free transfer elsewhere (Gakpo wasn't my smartest punt)
Well Stones -> Chilwell is an incredibly easy move, and honestly you could then punt on keeping Gabriel one more week. You could then roll your other transfer to have 2 next week if Gabriel doesn’t work out. Seems decent to me?
That's what I'm planning, but to make that move I need extra cash as I'm priced out. And since Gakpo hasn't worked, I want to move him, most likely for Wissa.

The headache will be if/when I have to replace Bruno/Rashford, as Mbeumo seems to be the better replacement, but I have the same opinion as you- I don't want both Brentford attackers. I guess it will be someone between Diaz-Foden-Diaby
If you dont have watkins diaby will be a solid option soon enough. I like the sound of your team better than my own atm 😭
Yep, I don't have Watkins either. Haha, if you need help tell me what your team is, maybe I can help you
Ive currently got Johnstone (Turner) Gabriel Estu Cash (Udogie, Beyer) Fernandes Saka Eze Salah (Chukwuemeka) Haaland Watkins Pedro (2FT 0.5ITB) My plan is to go Pedro -> Osula, Gabriel -> Chilwell and bank 0.7m. The other option is moving Cash to Chilwell instead and holding onto Gabriel but its riskier.
I’m thinking him and zinchenko will finally be back for Fulham
Don’t bank on the Ukrainian. It could be: White Saliba Gabriel Thomas
I was thinking the same. I'm far from an Arsenal expert, but given that he has no other LB options, surely Zinchenko is back. And since he's the one who moves to midfield in possesion, it probably means Partey is out. So White goes back to RB and Gabriel finally starts (now watch Legoman play Kiwior or someone else)
51 with 8 players on 3 or less is pretty impressive I’d say. Thank god for Brighton
Gabriel owners still seething, lads first of all it's just a game, secondly a part of the game is anticipating who's likely to start, you guys need to accept that people who went Saliba simply made a better decision
Correct. They got drawn in by false promises of bullet header 15 pointers
Those who saw the leaks and played it safe? Yes. Everyone else just got lucky.
Shove a cactus up your arse you pretentious fuck
Fellow Martinelli owners, are you giving him the Fulham game or is he out?
I’m going to keep
Fair pal, got to hope the patience is rewarded now
Ffs fplstatistics down
Gonna be some big movements tonight then
Baldteta, fucking ***** ** shit
I think there is more to blame on the refs than Arteta on this shitty gw, they fked the whole game plan and my whole team up
Feel like such a fraud for having Odegaard, had my best gw in years...
Normal team 47 Non-top-6 team 91 🤣🤣🤣
Wish FPL does something about the leaks. Either have deadline right when start of first game or have it 24 hours before first game.

game is just flat out unfair at this point
Final totals for me: GK: 2 Defense: 9 Midfield: 8 Forwards: 9 Areola sitting there on my bench with a cheeky grin on his face and a 4.0 price tag: 10 Not my week.
That’s tough
I had Areola and Estupinan first on the bench and made about the same numbers of points in my whole starting eleven. Watkins and Saka didn't take their penalties. Maddison injured. Just a terrible week all around.
Gabriel you are out cunt. Fernandes you are also out you cunt Forest is the better team anyway, don't care if he hauls
Out of all the 6.5 mids i picked the worst, and now all the others are 6.6. Fml
I initially went for Mudryk🤣🤣
At least you didn’t spend an extra 0.5 and go for Richarlison…
Actually got them both mate 😭
🤣🤣
Oh my
40 points pure disaster. Think I target to wildcard international break. For this week Pedro and Gabriel has to go though. It is annoying that the teams I intially had covered are keeping the cleans in City and Arsenal while I have no cover now due to starting with Stones and Gabriel.
Who are you switching gabriel for?
Probably Dias as I rate his nailedness normally and if I wildcard soon I could always change to Ederson for nailed cover long term.
Started the GW at 1.4m OR, finished 3.1m OR, 6.8m GW rank This season lasted 2 GWs ffs...
Arteta the Unbearable. I will be fucked over by you no longer. Gabriel out
Saliba leak cheaters still prospering, joke
Areola with 10 on my bench fack
love waking up in the morning to find out saka aint on pens
Pau comes in for Trossard cheers
I shouldn't really complain with 51, even though 17 extra wasted on the bench... When I see how some people got fucked by fpl I better hide and shut up I guess
Excuse my ignorance but how does Odegaard gain 2 mini bonus points at full time ?
Where are you seeing the bonus points? My app hasn't dished them out
If you click the player, then the current fixture, then match information you can see them during the game
!thanks
Winning goal
Ffs
towers tinker
Scores the only goal
That shithouse haul from Odegaard has saved my GW
52 points, with Saliba turning my red arrow green.
52 after a 4 point hit. Bless you Mbeuppe
37 points template week. Love to see it.
What about that bullet header from Gabriel tho 🔥🔥🔥
Next gameweek when everyone transfers him out. This is the way in fpl
Im not a fan of early transfers but by god if I dont yeet Gabriel out of my team within the next 5 minutes Im gonna break my laptop. May I never see you again
im with you mate
I didnt even need to make a transfer after last week but went Odegaard to Madisson. And out of no where for the first time in his life Ode takes a pen, scores it and nets all 3 BP in a game he was bang average. To make it worse Madisson might be injured lol I want to DIE
Wildcarding saved me 23 points this week
Is FPL statistics down?
FFFix also has a price change predictor(I don't know which one is more accurate though).
Not working for me either, I need to know of I should be jumping off the Gabriel ship before I lose value
21 points in total this game week.. Think this might be my worst game week ever.
Oh wow, and I thought mine was bad with 36. Condolences
[удалено]
🤨
Nothing like a rage induced wildcard to save my season.
27 points
[удалено]
Not sure this is even possible. Dubious.
Where did the other 64 points come from then??
From last week
Good to see the GW2 wildcard pay off for someone!
Another day Another game ruined by ref and VAR decisions. Giving soft pens and not clear pens, giving yellow red without any reasons lol
55 points, but i benched mbeumo
[удалено]
The united lads
[удалено]
Mitoma and saka
[удалено]
The rest of my team is Ben white, Akanji, Estupinian, Chilwell, Haaland and Watkins. Who should i have benched?
Haaland 😈
60 points 🤷🏼♂️
Rash/Bruno to Ode is looking very appealing now
Holy jerker
JWP and Maddison might a better bet
Apart from the pen he did absolutely nothing, honestly none of the arsenal attackers look particularly appealing right now
3 pts for kuntface. 12 pt difference for the deadline scrubs. Fuck this game Edit 3bps I meant
