alreadyexists Posted August 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 4, 2022 Just now, BOF said: No-one's sure, but I think he starts. Given Gerrard's comments across pre-season and Bailey starting and scoring against Rennes in our final warm-up, I'd be very surprised if he didn't. Cheers BOF maybe I’ll risk it then, a lot people people are going for him and it made me think perhaps I’d missed something and he was nailed on… but after a solid preseason I would personally start him on Saturday but we shall see I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ender4 Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 I've just joined fantasy football for the first time.... I'll probably get bored after a few weeks, but for now my team is: Ederson Cancelo, Trippier, White, Cash. AAT. Salah, Luiz Diaz, Bailey Haaland, Jesus Subs - Ward, Martinelli, Neto, Archer.

I doubt we will se him start and I think u need a guaranteed starter on the bench as 1st sub or u risk only getting 1 point if one of your 1st 11 doesn't start unless there's an injury that we've not been told about or someone breaks down in the warm up there is zero chance of anyone in my first 11 not getting on the pitch at some point this stage of the season you're fairly safe from rotation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

News he's not 100% will make me get rid, he's not vital for now and plenty of options to fill the gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted August 4, 2022 Moderator Share Posted August 4, 2022 Thing with Perisic, budget allowing, is he's an awkward price point. IMV you either need to go up to James and find 6.0, or it looks now like Doherty is the more likely to start and drop down. Doherty's numbers are huge if he plays, and it looks like he will. Could've done without the curveball all the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted August 4, 2022 Moderator Share Posted August 4, 2022 I've gone Perisic to Doherty and the 8.0 mid slot to Kulusevski with 0.5 ITB. Quite like that going into a home tie with Southampton. Kulu will become a City mid in GW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) Have a feeling this could be my final selection. Maybe one more tinker tomorrow but as it stands I'm fairly happy with it. Sterling/Almiron/Bailey will probably be what I look at changing Edited August 4, 2022 by Farlz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely bossed preseason but historically wasn't great. I'd also assume he loses his place once Newcastle finish their transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah I understand the rationale, it’s the lack of minutes which worries me… if it was another club i knew less about I would probably put him in, but I’m not convinced he’ll start many games for us. As BOF said though, I think he’s done enough to at least start against Bournemouth and then we’ll see from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
