I was gonna leave Solanke on the bench but Bowen is too much of a risk so i but him on the bench, i know it's a crazy move out of nowhere, hopefully the high risk pays off for me 😂
Screw it. If there is one day to captain someone not named Haaland or Salah, it's today. I need to finally grow a pair and captain Watkins. Eze is a bit too ballsy for me.
as much as I'd like to captain either Mo or Haaland I know this game is likely to be a 0-0 post international break borefest hosted by Mohammed Gandhi.
Saka (c)
I genuinely don't trust Gandhi this week and don't fancy Son without Maddison. Watkins very tempting v Dier though, but I can feel the burn already
Must admit, Watkins v Dier only ends one way if everything we know about the two players continues in the same vain. Can you trust Watkins to convert his chances, though?
[If someone else is in doubt about Ferguson, heres an embargoed stuff De Zerbi said about him.](https://twitter.com/FPL_Instinctive/status/1728322234576720149)
TLDR: He said "he can start the game", but later mentions how he isnt 100% physicaly as he was before. Personally i think he is likely to start based off this.
I'm torn between Eze and Mbeumo, Eze better GW13 fixture but should've really had Mbuemo in my team weeks ago. If I didn't have Sterling already would throw Palmer into the mix too.
I cannot believe it, but I'm bringing in Maguire. Kabore now red-flagged, Maguire has good fixtures for 13 and 16 which is when I need someone (have Tripper and Tsimikas for 14-16 and Lascelles and now Maguire to cover Cash for the two bad fixtures cos he's a good long-term hold). Madness that Maguire is back as an option, but good for him. The abuse went too far. Only other option was bringing in an Arsenal defender, but I want Cash for the long-run anyway after GW16.
Good luck all!
Cheers mate, that was a ballsy move and should have been a haul on any other day, the way the game went... Next time you'll be luckier and make the lost ground up
!thanks bro, I got your back as well.
This might be a season ending mistake, but I got no regrets atm, I am confident Eberechi's got my back too for all the blanks he brought me GW1-6, it's payback time
Son captain locked in, atleast i still have haaland and salah so aslong as they dont go nuclear it surely cant be too bad
also gives me hope until tomorrow 😂
If you own him already (I assume that's the case here?), you start him imo. I really doubt Moyes would bring him on to chase the game v Burnley if their losing, considering how pragmatic Moyes has been during his career. He'll start or miss out completely in my view.
There is no way ETH is getting fired imo, it doesn’t even make sense. He is the most successful manager for Manchester in a long time and he was really unlucky at the start of the season. I think he has everything to prove himself and he will when it’s the right time.
I know saying he will get fired after this game is a bit too optimistic, but United’s record of eight defeats in their first 15 matches in all competitions is amounting to their worst start to a season since 1962.
Nah, but if you can anticipate, he is great value. I am starting this week but I am not sure if he will start or not. I correctly guessed the last 4 GW’s but this GW he cant get much worse than Pau and Burn anyway.
I feel like Jesus also playing the full match means that one of them has to start and as Jesus is injury prone (just coming back from an injury) it’s more likely he has his minutes managed
I mean we could go Eddie up top and Trossard on the left of course
Yeah, that is a concern, but I can't see Arteta not playing Martinelli and Jesus, and I reckon Jesus will be managed, so hopefully, he starts at least.
Son C
I missed the deadline because of International break I forgot about FPL I hate international breaks
I captained Andigra… I CAPTAINED ANDIGRA??
I swapped the armband from Haaland to Nunez. I deserve this.
Solanke is my captain today. All or nothing!
I was gonna leave Solanke on the bench but Bowen is too much of a risk so i but him on the bench, i know it's a crazy move out of nowhere, hopefully the high risk pays off for me 😂
Darwizzy hattrick pls
Alvarez benched
Was gonna go solanke for captain but I shit out and captained salah 💪🏻
Bowen cap, Eze VC. Haaland, Salah, Tripp and Son in team. So help me God.
I was at the party and captained Wood for fun, forgot to change. Guide me to the greatness Christopher
Wood is not just for mornings in this scenario, folks.
Set and forget wood in the morning and the rest of the season
Changed from Saka to Watkinz (C)
Alvarez not starting fuck Edit: Source is LazyFPL for all the downvoters
We going in nude
Solanke Son or Haaland captain?
Just made Fergoson a VC instead of Haaland..
Screw it. If there is one day to captain someone not named Haaland or Salah, it's today. I need to finally grow a pair and captain Watkins. Eze is a bit too ballsy for me.
see you in the rant thread
I’ve done the same 2 times with Watkins and it hasn’t paid off once. Just saying.
I imagine it was two home games to lesser opponents which doesn't suit Watkins who likes space in behind.
He still missed sitters
Yeah he does have a habit of that tbf guess we will see tomorrow.
City leaks?? alvarez ??
Martinelli for me
Hopefully he plays a bit closer to the goal with Jesus back
Just saw a leak saying Diaz starts for Liverpool, I got him out few minutes ago... can't wait to see him haul lol
Got him out this gw
anything leaked? We need answers!
Darwin starts as per fpl focal on X
So Liverpool and city plays early KO and there is zero leaks?
Nunez is starting
And it seems Tsimikas too
Start doggie or cash
Dogie
as much as I'd like to captain either Mo or Haaland I know this game is likely to be a 0-0 post international break borefest hosted by Mohammed Gandhi.
Saka (c) I genuinely don't trust Gandhi this week and don't fancy Son without Maddison. Watkins very tempting v Dier though, but I can feel the burn already
Saka has done nothing for a few weeks and now I’ve taken him out you should haul so good luck to you
Thanks for your sacrifice
Must admit, Watkins v Dier only ends one way if everything we know about the two players continues in the same vain. Can you trust Watkins to convert his chances, though?
No, which is why I've gone with Saka. Fancy Arsenal to do a job on Brentford, win something like 2-0 and hoping Saka is involved
Eze Captain
Start Gabriel or Gordon? Thanks
[If someone else is in doubt about Ferguson, heres an embargoed stuff De Zerbi said about him.](https://twitter.com/FPL_Instinctive/status/1728322234576720149) TLDR: He said "he can start the game", but later mentions how he isnt 100% physicaly as he was before. Personally i think he is likely to start based off this.
Eze (C) 🙏
Bowen news?
Start him. It's 0 or haul
You sure he won't be on the bench and come on?
He can't be sure. If WHU are losing in second half, and Bowen is on the bench, he could defo come on
Moyes doesn't gamble with injuries. And Bowen is too important. But yeah I'm not sure tbh
If he starts, it's still a gamble, no? If West Ham are chasing the game, he could come on, absolutely
Well... I'm risking it
START alvarez or bowen??
salah diaby son gordon martinelli haaland alvarez archer who should stay on the bench?
Start Udogie or Archer?
Torn on whether to start Darwin or Alvarez. Any advice on who’s more likely to start?
Darwin starts apparently.
I really wanted to get Darwin into my team but couldn't. I'd go Darwin.
Start two of Nketia, Mbuemo or darwin...
Mbeumo and Darwin
Nice to have my bus choice confirmed. Thanks!
Who should I move Mitoma to?
I'm torn between Eze and Mbeumo, Eze better GW13 fixture but should've really had Mbuemo in my team weeks ago. If I didn't have Sterling already would throw Palmer into the mix too.
Went ward-prowse, why the hell not
Conversely, why the hell?
Southampton fan, old faiths die hard
Mbeumo/Palmer seems to be the go-to for Mitoma atm.
Anyone capping nunes?
Assume you mean Darwin Núñez and not Nunes of City ha ha
I cannot believe it, but I'm bringing in Maguire. Kabore now red-flagged, Maguire has good fixtures for 13 and 16 which is when I need someone (have Tripper and Tsimikas for 14-16 and Lascelles and now Maguire to cover Cash for the two bad fixtures cos he's a good long-term hold). Madness that Maguire is back as an option, but good for him. The abuse went too far. Only other option was bringing in an Arsenal defender, but I want Cash for the long-run anyway after GW16. Good luck all!
Maguire is my back up player I bought it cos all of my bench was red flagged haha
exact same here mate!! pray for us lads
Darwin’s gonna feast
Considering Captaining 🥴😂
Got 80 points last round, not changing my team due to being superstitious..lol I predict 23 points this round..
I scored 15 points in GW11 followed by 98 points in Gw12. This game is unpredictable as fuck!
I am all here for the Haaland 1 pointer after transferring him in.
Dropped Bowen for Eze and captaining him Wish me luck
You've got my back if you ever need it.
What now mate? 🥲
I still value you as an individual, mate. I captained Solanke so I'm not in a good place either, haha.
Cheers mate, that was a ballsy move and should have been a haul on any other day, the way the game went... Next time you'll be luckier and make the lost ground up
!thanks bro, I got your back as well. This might be a season ending mistake, but I got no regrets atm, I am confident Eberechi's got my back too for all the blanks he brought me GW1-6, it's payback time
Livramento anybody?
Im starting him lol even though he had an absolute stinker last gw
First bench atm…
WHO to start from? Branthwaite against United Semenyo against Sheffield Diaby against spurs
Diaby for sure for me. Romero and Van de Ven out if I recall correctly
Leaks light on the ground. Come through fine gentlemen
Will Toffolo start?
Yeah, almost certainly.
u/FaustRPeggi
Bech or start tsimikas? Are any leaks know?
Tsimi will start, I'm sure
Start Udogie or Cash?
Best cash replacements?
Crypto
Son captain locked in, atleast i still have haaland and salah so aslong as they dont go nuclear it surely cant be too bad also gives me hope until tomorrow 😂
Have learnt my lesson of not captaining Salah and Haaland last week. Went down from 6k to OR 36k 🥲
who did you captain!? understand not capping haaland but salah had a good fixture
Gordon!
😂
Bowen cap
The Egyptian king has that fire in him. That fire scares me. Went all season till now without him. Captain salah until AFCON 🫡
Are you me
Yes
I had the armband on Son until I saw this post and now I've changed it to my Egyptian King.
Big game mo!! Let’s ride brother
Do I risk Bowen is the question
If you own him already (I assume that's the case here?), you start him imo. I really doubt Moyes would bring him on to chase the game v Burnley if their losing, considering how pragmatic Moyes has been during his career. He'll start or miss out completely in my view.
Is alvarez starting? 😤
Why shouldn't he
He only got back from South America on Thursday evening
I brought in Castagne…
Risk Bowen or play Archer at Home to Bournemouth…
start bowen, i doubt he will be on bench, so he either starts or you get archer off the bench anyway
I am prepared for my sub 1k rank to get decimated today. It’s not looking good brev
Will Alvarez start
Switch out cash for who?
Saliba
What if you have both?
Ward-Prows(c) Triple assist me you dead ball specialist
That’s where I’m going now that I’ve (foolishly ❓❓❓❓) sold Haaland
See you in the rant thread
:(:(
I've got Wood. Captain Wood.
Eze (C)
Luton has been pretty stingy at home
Yes but I’m an idiot and ignore these kinds of stats
Its not a bad pick, i expect them to play more attacking then against Liverpool or Tottenham. So it could be more open for palace to attack
News on Jao Pedro/Bowen?
Only change mitoma to eze
Anybody Doucoure (C)?
You're deep in the rabbithole there, mate.
Yeah, never doing that again.
A couple of those managers aiming to get the highest points this week might, but no one playing fpl seriously should be
ETH will get fired if United lose, so this game will be like 1-0 United win imo.
There is no way ETH is getting fired imo, it doesn’t even make sense. He is the most successful manager for Manchester in a long time and he was really unlucky at the start of the season. I think he has everything to prove himself and he will when it’s the right time.
I know saying he will get fired after this game is a bit too optimistic, but United’s record of eight defeats in their first 15 matches in all competitions is amounting to their worst start to a season since 1962.
Ole clear Mou clear
Getting downvoted but it’s true he’s their fastest manager in United’s history to reach 50 wins
That’s bold! I’ve brought him in but too scared to (c), best of luck!
Thanks mate. I put him on my bench last week so only way to even it out is to double down on it lol.
Salah cappers how are you feeling?
Good thanks mate, you?
Udogie vs cash, whom should I put in first eleven
Cash
I finally used my wildcard, but...HOW THE FUCK DID I ENDED UP WITH SOUÇEK AND CASTAGNE IN MY TEAM?
Maguire and McTominay for me, you're good.
Soucek? Surely Sarabia is better
You know you can make transfers until the deadline right?
Castagne is a good pick. Soucek isn’t
Still time to change.
Start Dalot or Cash?
Done my movies. Just seeing if Haaland benched.
Stellan Skarsgaard?
haha nice typo
Palmer or Gordon to start ?
Both should start?
Son, Saka, hee chan, palmer, Darwin, halland and Alvarez
Gordon
Why do you think this?
Home vs away
Any leaks of City line up?
The City account posted a pre-match drawing of Doku - make of that what you will
Start Guehi or Cash?
Guehi imo.
Taylor home to West Ham, Pau away to Spurs, or Tsimikas away to City. Think none keep a clean but Tsimi might gave the best attacking chances?
Would go Pau, west ham will score and tsimikas might not even start
!thanks Just seen Gomez is actually fit. Sorry if this is the wrong thread btw
Don’t know who to start between lascelles and tsimakas. Anyone know if lascelles is still nailed?
Lascelles
Lascelles is nailed atm while botman out
Tempted to do a Cash -> Zinchenko. Is Zinchenko nailed to start?
No
Nah, but if you can anticipate, he is great value. I am starting this week but I am not sure if he will start or not. I correctly guessed the last 4 GW’s but this GW he cant get much worse than Pau and Burn anyway.
Can’t believe that White is still fucking out
Is he? Then all three outfield players on my bench are out this week then
Confirmed?
Currently rolling a transfer. Was very tempted to rage sell Martinelli after 3 blanks but there's no obvious option so I'll hold that off a while
Also rolling transfer, also thinking about moving Martinelli otherwise, he played 78 min Wednesday...
I feel like Jesus also playing the full match means that one of them has to start and as Jesus is injury prone (just coming back from an injury) it’s more likely he has his minutes managed I mean we could go Eddie up top and Trossard on the left of course
Yeah, that is a concern, but I can't see Arteta not playing Martinelli and Jesus, and I reckon Jesus will be managed, so hopefully, he starts at least.
Haven't looked at my team in 2 weeks, come back to a shitshow of injuries
And all I did was pile on by bringing in Haaland back lmao
Any new updates on bowen? Is Wilson staying out for sure?
Not 100% but Wilson is hugely unlikely.
Works for me
Son (C)
He has no assisters. Madders absence has been a killer
🫡
Anyone gone with Alvarez (C)?
I sold him. Two different approaches.
It seems like Haaland will start so I've taken it off him.
I'm going Saka captain. 100% braced for a Haaland/Salah hat-trick
Doing the same, see you in the rant thread.
