I have Gabriel, Mane and Semenyo, all blanking in GW32.
I think i can get away with benching Gabriel and Semenyo, but I can't bench Mane, probably need to sell him so that I have at least one backup on the bench that could come in.
The cute thing about the Galatasaray win is of course the goalscorer Lemina, happens to be formerly of Wolves.
Getting an onslaught of Wolves of late lol
A different argument is that no Romero is actually better for the Spurs defense.
I realised the nice thing about not having a WC to use is that I'm not tied to it when planning my bench boost.
I always felt that the Bench Boost had been an unnecessary shackle to my WC plans. Now I can think about it independently.
Is Thiago a viable captain this weekend against Wolves?
This is a question that will probably occupy 1/4 of my time available for FPL before the next deadline.
Initial thoughts is yes. Wolves revival doesn't seem applicable against teams like Brentford.
To hava a longer think. Will explain more.
If you're gonna suggest someone like Tavernier for the captaincy, you'd better be prepared to back it up with actual action.
Time to figure out how all those FA Cup results affect our respective teams!
Liverpool losing to Galatasaray provides an interesting conundrum for the weekend.
Do we move to their assets, knowing full well the minutes risk?
I have been weighing up a move for Wirtz or Szobo, after ruling out Salah.
Ponder ponder...
Aye, I do believe Palmer is coming back to his best, and Rosenior is finding the best style to get the best out of both Palmer and Pedro, Chelsea's main goalscoring threats.
Yikes that's a very tough one.
I'd go Palmer + JP simply because I just feel that Salah has slowed down a bit and is just no longer capable of those hauls we used to love.
Cue Wolves hattrick hah
Touche.
Thing is, supposedly Rosenior is discouraging long range shots, working more towards shooting in the box which makes Pedro a stronger option.
And it's worse for me, if I want Pedro, I'd need to make 2 moves because I'm currently maxed out on Chelsea lol
Me too lol. I have money to spend but just can't see either atm.
I'm at 1.5m rank though so yeah ha ha
Lol I was wrong. I'm 80 all out. Chalobah subbed in for Andersen for an additional 2.
Nice small surprise, now getting ready for GW30!!!
What if he's in hot form?
Most of the FPL dilemmas this week is whether or not managers should keep Haaland this week.
And the reason it has escalated is primarily because Haaland's 'replacement', Salah, faces a Spurs that are all over the shop.
IF Salah wasn't facing Spurs, I doubt there would have been this much noise.
Brentford are gonna be so annoyed at themselves.
Hope they take it out against Wolves this gameweek.
Captain Thiago, anyone?
Can someone define for me what chasing points are in FPL?
Yes, Salah has now scored twice in a row. Against Wolves.
And yes, next game is all-over-the-place Spurs.
But after that? It's Brighton, Fulham, Everton.
If you have a WC or transfers to spare, fine. Get to GW31 then bug out.
Even then though, it's not like he hauled.
Just don't see it.
Enzo to Salah??
Nice try, short by 1.5 units ha ha
May the Force be with You
Sweet score.
Go high risk, but calculate wisely, and cold without emotion.
Also just noticed Palmer almost hit DEFCON lol. Who woulda thought.
If you saw Palmer this week, you can tell he could potentially explode anytime soon.
Yeah Joao Pedro claimed all the plaudits, but it's coming!!
Last night's result was a reflection of Spurs more than Palace.
Those who were disappointed with their Liverpool players last week will no doubt hang on to them now.
I probably need to bring in one more.
Yes, Salah scored.
But hard to pick him up because Liverpool just aren't consistent.
I honestly prefer Palmer.
Even Saka looks more attractive, if it weren't for the fact that he's blanking in GW31.
The Joao Pedro haul is a classic case of form over fixture.
78pts all out.
Transferred and captained KDH.
Targetting Burnley worked.
This time.
Great week for me.
Biggest achievement for the week was Haaland blanking.
Gonna stream!
If you like a stream where there are 2 hosts with sharply contrasting different styles of play, do tune in
Probably start in half an hour, hope to see you inside!

I'm in the mood for a deadline stream, but ours aren't gonna be right up to deadline. Reason is because it'll be 2am on the side of the world, and I'm too old to do it that late ha ha
So do we lose the right to call it a deadline stream?
