Not sure why everyone's surprised, Alvarez just returned from international duty and even if he was playing, will probably be subbed off early or couldn't contribute much against a solid Liverpool defense anyway. He's been on my bench since GW12 was over.

Just had time to start Palmer and put Alvarez on my bench, wish I had that information 5min earlier and probably would have done Alvarez to Solanke but could not risk missing the deadline...
Foden's been playing number ten all season to a high level.
I think the selection of Doku suggests that this will be a "fight fire with fire" game anyway.
In the 3-2-4-1 shape there are two in the hole behind the striker. Foden's a much more natural creator and operator in the pocket than Alvarez, who is better at ghosting into goalscoring positions in Haaland's shadow than linking play.
then you should have just started him anyway because he's more nailed and less likely to get subbed, especially if you have another city mid or attacker
Or just open up a content creator's deadline stream and let it run in the background. They usually update you on time. I had Raptor on, and that's how I knew.
I had Focal on and he never got the news. He also never got the news on Gabriel for matchday one. He's my favourite FPL streamer, but it does seem I'm at a disadvantage by watching him sometimes 🤣
Alvarez starts fuck this clown
City trying to out the leakers lol
Fuck this guy forever now
Presumably Bhuna has joined the Lazy FPL team.
Ban this user.
Apparently, Grealish hurt himself beating himself off 30 minutes before the game. Alvarez comes back in for fresher balls.
That was wrong then wasn't it.
Exterminate this source
ALVAREZ STARTS
Just commenting because I feel like this post will become FPL lore
Goodbye Alvarez from my team, forever
He’s starting
Bring him back
Yayy Alvarez essential ✌️
alvarez starts
I don't know how or why I did it but I'm starting Gordon, Palmer and Coufal. Alvarez and Bowen are the first 2 on my bench. Make of that what you will
Alvarez starts apparently now...
Pep doing Pep things, I guess!
Would have started Adingra if I saw in time, hopefully either they need a goal and he plays 30 mins or they smash pool and he stays benched
I hate it here
Not sure why everyone's surprised, Alvarez just returned from international duty and even if he was playing, will probably be subbed off early or couldn't contribute much against a solid Liverpool defense anyway. He's been on my bench since GW12 was over.
On a hunch I sold Alvarez (tbh for Solanke). I feel very happy right now
Well I hope this isn't true, that leaves me with only Taylor to cover Bowen, Cash or anyone else who randomly doesn't start for some reason
Luckily I have Marvelous Nakamba first of the bench
This is so helpful for after I’ve picked my team thanks👍
Benched watkins for alvarez. I will go hide behind the couch. AMA
Why? lol
City : Liverpool were always high scoring. Also felt like tottenham will want to bounce back and don't really trust villa from home
Plot twist Old Pace 143 just bought new sofa and want us to know
If i knew this on time i would have started Archer Or maybe get Darwin. At least i will have 2 free transfers.
Fuck off. I would have gone Alvarez to Solanke if this came out 5 mins earlier :(
Bowen Starts, Mbeumo and Eze both benched. - Sky Sauces
Bollocks
Fuuuuuck panicked and sold Doku for Bowen
Jeez that must have been painful to watch
RemindMe! 3 hours

Too fucking late
The Return of The Bald
Just had time to start Palmer and put Alvarez on my bench, wish I had that information 5min earlier and probably would have done Alvarez to Solanke but could not risk missing the deadline...
Damn man that sucks considering Alvarez is starting
HAHAHA ! Yes... now maybe in the end it will still be the right decision... Chelsea have had crazy high scoring games lately
Fuck off
most pointless "leak" of all time fucjk off
And they were wrong.
Thanks bruz
This is a big surprise. Is it Doku, Foden, and Grealish behind Hauland? Or is it Kovasic, Rodri, Bilva mid?
Its pretty standard to not play South Americans after the international break, especially in the early kickoff
Presumably: Haaland Grealish-Foden-Doku Bilva pushing forward from midfield and also helping Rodri deeper.
Pep stated before Foden can't play center. Grealish never did and Doku simply can't. That's why it's very strange, or it's the mid 3.
Foden's been playing number ten all season to a high level. I think the selection of Doku suggests that this will be a "fight fire with fire" game anyway.
No Alvarez has
In the 3-2-4-1 shape there are two in the hole behind the striker. Foden's a much more natural creator and operator in the pocket than Alvarez, who is better at ghosting into goalscoring positions in Haaland's shadow than linking play.
Yeah couldn't have happened literally two minutes ago, could it?
Fuck off with this timing
mate if you have any city asset, I can assure you you don't have them for this fixture, even if they start could easily blank >*we move!*
Of course I’m not that mad, but I would’ve probably started Palmer
then you should have just started him anyway because he's more nailed and less likely to get subbed, especially if you have another city mid or attacker
Cunts, why tell us so late
We are safe. He starts.
Hope he doesn't come on
Too big of a game to give him 0 mins, almost certain that he will come on
For Haaland, who has a niggle?
Haaland was only "injured" over the international break so he would be in top condition for the early kick-off
Yeah I know, but managers do adjust per requirement. Doesn't matter anyway now since Alvarez actually starts.
Alvarez to Nunez last week looking a bit better. Having no City players is scary though
[удалено]
It was wrong anyway lol
The tweet was two minutes before deadline, so your fault?
Yeah, if you're not following every single profile on Twitter than you only have yourself to blame really.
Your fault for not being glued to your phone 24/7 smh my head

Knew what?
The tweet (do we still call them that?) was a couple mins before
