I’m 100% save scumming if this is in Football Manager
@fpl-failure
I’ve always been bad at FPL but I like talking about it! Actually got good for three years but back to the norm now. 24/25: 242k 23/24: 1148th 22/23: 93k 21/22: 40k Pre 2021: we don’t talk about this. Oh and I’m a Wolves fan, unfortunately.

Antoine Semenyo will become just the second EVER player to play non-league, all four professional divisions in England, and the UEFA Champions League.

Could well happen! I actually realised I won’t sell Rogers actually as I need to get Wilson for 31 and need one transfer spare for a defender. Good chance I roll and hope for Haaland to not be crap as well!
To answer your question, I’m probably imploding my season by selling Haaland and Rogers for Pedro and Salah
Makes it a bit awkward doesn’t it as he’s annoying to sell and bring back in 0.5 more if you want 15 doublers for a BB.
Tbf they were absolutely dreadful under him by the end and had been for a long long time.
Thing is, most of them know if they go down it’s not their problem as they’ll get a move somewhere else.
Considering I almost did Timber to VVD, I’ll definitely take a green arrow. Think that’ll be as high as I’ve been this season and I’ve rolled the transfer too. Captain blank is a pain, and pretty much all the rank damage was done by Joao bloody Pedro.
Can’t wait to yeet Rogers and Boomo out. And Haaland tbf
Joao Pedro can fuck all the way off into the sun
City have gone from a team that is all about feeding Haaland to now seemingly avoiding getting him the ball as much as possible
Unnecessary personal swipe in the last sentence 😂
Going for worst case bingo again tonight:
City CS
Pedro haul
Rice Haul
Rogers goal on my bench
Arsenal concede
Haaland blank
Yeah I think that’s probably right, Pedro looks more threatening overall right now and seems to love playing under Rosenior. He’s my first target if I need to sell any forwards personally
There’s certainly a Liverpool element but I think he’s also that type of player - he’s not a Haaland type all about the goals etc. also not on pens etc so makes it harder to predict. I’m a lot less surprised when he blanks in an ‘easy’ game than someone like Haaland, for example.
My only issue with Semenyo from a captaincy pov is he’s a bit crap for bonus so less likely to haul unless he gets two returns. Bruno can get 10 points from one assist for example
Yeah for sure I guess that all plays into it. If Liverpool were firing every week then he’d probably be a bit more consistent. Maybe when Wirtz is back it improves a bit?
KDH worked out as a lovely transfer in recently. 6 points off the bench last week and 9 pointer last night. Started him over Rogers though so that could still go wrong.
I think Ekitike has proved that he’s not the kind of player you can bring in for a specific game, or trust to captain, as his returns have been hard to predict and very ‘all or nothing’. I’m very happy to own, but you have to ride out a few blanks a long the way.
Wilson will 100% play and haul btw because I can’t buy him based on the doubt
Yeah that’s fair enough, especially if it means getting Ekitike (I have him already). Best solution for me is probably to bench him if he’s out to solve a benching headache!
This is fair logic, if he plays this week though it’s a great fixture and he’s always capable. Probably the right call though tbf given his form depending on who you want instead
I feel like it’s more likely Haaland is fine and plays than not, so I find selling him a bit odd if we don’t find out he’s actually out. Still my captain as it stands
Ah ok, no way of knowing then really. Probably a don’t buy but start if you have him situation as it stands
Has anything been said about the Wilson injury?
I hate this game so so much. Boomo looking terribly and Bruno dodging assists to go along with this decision being a disaster (despite Semenyo scoring).
No idea what I’ll do now for gw29. If Haaland is a doubt then Rogers to Wilson means Haaland can sit on the bench if need be. If he’s fine then benching Rogers for KDH makes sense. Really want Wilson though.
