Sunday night I did the rage transfer of JP to Mateta. Not sure if I should or need to do any more. Waiting to see if anything comes of any of the cup matches this week. Likely not but you never know. Anything obvious here? Reindeer kind of needs to go but that could wait. Keeping Salah until AFCON unless injury of course, no one jumps as a replacement. Palmer is out and Saka just hasn’t impressed me yet.

Fair enough ODT. Seems like solid reasoning. Good team by the way !
Good luck.
AJW
However, with the enclosed bunch of ‘unwuly webel wowsers’, I myself am torn between:
– Just making the one trade (JP> Mateta) and sittin’ on my hands till next week before I make the next move
– Adding to the above move, but going a -4 pts hit, by trading Gyok’ > Kroupi Jr + Reijnders>Mbeumo (leaving me with 1.7m ITB)
BUT what if Gyokeres scores against Burnley, and Mbeumo does Sweet FA (Football association!!!) against a tightened Forest defence????
Hmmm – so many considerations! I’ve been going back and forth between the 2 options, it’s driving me crazy!!! Any sound advice?
I’m inclined just to ‘Thwow him to the gwound and tweat him woughly’!!!
Cheerio one and all! 😉

Roll the extra and revisit next week.
AJW
Thanks ODT. That’s basically confirmed my decision. Sometimes one just needs an outside opinion to convince oneself!
Cheers !
AJW
Although contrary to the above, I’ll be playing Alderete in a 4-3-3 formation I think!
ODT
I’m currently toying with a 5-2-3 formation but that puts Semenyo on the bench and I’m not sure that is wise, even against City. Time will tell……
AJW
Very brave! I’ll be playing Semenyo, but benching Caicedo + Reindeers, which kind of scares the crap out of me (I think I’m easily frightened!!
) , but would be worse if I had Semenyo on the pine!
ODT
Maybe I’ll bench Enzo instead. Maybe not. Lots of time to tinker until deadline. Good luck to you sir.
AJW
You too! GL with the fiddling!
Terminators
I think you are fine for this GW.
AJW
Thanks Terminators.
Yeah just saw on the scoresheet that Gyok didn’t get a run on tonight, so pretty good signs for the weekend.
Ismail Sarr however seems to have scored 2 and played a large chunk of the match at Anfield.
Terminators
I think Gyok has one last chance though, you have Saka who is the obvious replacement.
SAFs_hairdryer
Not just saying this because he’s just scored twice, but… I was considering Sarr in for Reminders as a -4. Is it worth it?
SAFs_hairdryer
*Reijnders
bees393
It will probably pay off in the long run but without seeing who is on your bench it is hard to say.
Love Reminders…one sure needs reminding that he is there being useless
SAFs_hairdryer
I’ve had a reminder set for a few weeks now to get shot of him!
Bench would be one of Thiago, Semenyo, Enzo/Caicedo
Terminators
Yes.
Reijnders is good but just doesn’t do enough for FPL returns.
SAFs_hairdryer
Done. Itchy trigger finger
Raziel
Unsure what to do with JP. Only real other option is Woltemade, but he ain’t even on pens. Thinking Reijnders to Mbeumo. Just sit the keeper out this gameweek.

Reijnders to Bruno I mean, ahead of Mbeumo.
SAFs_hairdryer
If you have the cash then yes
Terminators
I brought in Welbeck.
Shrivathsa
Could take a flyer on El Kroupi Junior at Bournemouth, cannot seem to stop scoring
AJW
That’s a definite possibility. Then make an upgrade elsewhere.next week.
AJW
Hello there everybody. How are plans going for this weekend ?
Good luck to yerz! 😉
