Have they changed the bp’s this season ? Mane scored the only goal,a match winning goal and not even down for 1 bp ???
Smash10
1-0 score lines have always thrown up some random bonus scores ain’t they
Shawn
Where do you guys get the info? The official site has been down since Bailly scored. Or is it me?
Brookyboy
Official site back up for a while now.
Kruzcampo
This FPL site has got problems still as they haven’t added in the Arsenal players scores yet!!
Smash10
Rambo is getting forward a lot. Just need him to score some points now
Shawn
I’m getting rid of JWP. Any good 5.5 or below recommendation?
Albrighton, Mooy, Doucoure, Atsu?
Ripcurl82
Monitor Mooy and Atsu tomorrow. I brought Mooy in myself for the Zaha injury so I’m hoping for great things.
DMC
I was going to suggest you to monitor Richarlison at 6£, if you can nick that 0.5, but it seems obvious now that Jesé is better at that price range so him. Fixtures not great but he’s always had goals in him and has just scored against Arsenal!
Smash10
Brazilian lad at Watford looked very good today apparently
Brookyboy
I’m gonna hold for 1 more week.Will have more information after international break plus 2 Ft’s.
Shawn
Yup Jese looks good. Didn’t watch Watford game but the new guy is on the scoresheet
KaKa37
1, Willian –> Pogba
2, JWP + Firmino –> Pogba + Chicharito (-4pts)
Pls help me?
Smash10
1
KaKa37
Thanks. Pogba or Mkhi?
Beaker
I’m considering 1 as well. Though would leave me no chelsea
Ripcurl82
Considering 1 myself. Do you think no Chelsea is a bad thing?
Beaker
Maybe not, guess pogba sounds better then William, Chelsea or no chelsea
jamesimmo
+1, just forget coverage for a moment, this game’s about individual players.
Brookyboy
Totally agree James.
KaKa37
Thanks you all, I will do it. MU is better Chelsea at moment
Shawn
I would probably go for 2. Not sure why JWP wasn’t starting. I’m getting rid of him
Smash10
JWP has always been in and out of the side
jamesimmo
Looks like Kane, Rodriguez and Francis are all going to drop tonight, with Salah now also being shipped out rapidly.
Liverpool have Arsenal (H) and Man City (A) next: would Salah —–> Pogba tonight be silly? I’m tempted.
Smash10
Ffs I have bloody Francis
Matt
I wouldn’t sell Salah. Liverpool always perform better against the bigger teams and could end up scoring bucketloads in those two games.
jamesimmo
That’s true. Not having Pogba has become a concern but early moves can easily backfire.
Salah, other than selling KDB, seems like my only realistic way to get him in.
Matt
What’s the rest of your team James? I’m thinking of taking a hit to do it.
jamesimmo
Here it is, mate, an early -4 for Tadic —–> Pogba with Rodriguez —–> 4.5m could work?
I’d be left quite thin — relying on Carroll — and Rodriguez still has good fixtures…
Matt
How would you feel about a -8 and selling Francis, Tadic and Bertrand to a 4.0, Cedric and Pogba? Would that even work?
jamesimmo
Thanks for helping out! That’d leave my bank 0.5m short. Cedric would have to be Zanka or someone.
I’ve only taken one -8 in my entire FPL career! Think they should be limited to emergencies. It’d have been good to deal with Francis too, though, for sure.
Really not sure how to tackle this. I fear that not acting tonight could make it even worse…
Matt
Really? Damn it! I thought that would have been enough. Yeah I’m not sure if Pogba is 100% worth a hit or if just going with Lukaku would be fine.
jamesimmo
Aha, no worries, this might sound crazy… but I’m thinking of ignoring Pogba / Rodriguez and just moving out useless Francis tonight? I could even grab Mbemba to bank that 0.5m.
It’s frustrating, really, as I could’ve started with a 4.0m defender. What d’you think?
Matt
I’m considering ignoring Pogba too actually. You may be better off trying to raise funds and selling Francis.
Figgy
Good debut by Jese
