That goes beyond the nature of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely though I don't want any of their players when last year that would've been a triple. Arsenal triple makes sense any maybe some Wolves.

Farlz Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Martial bloody useless. A Liverpool double and I couldn’t be less interested in any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah some of the Youtubers suggesting people take a punt on Darwin and bringing in Salah for KDB in the DGW hasn't got me remotely interested This week I think it'll be the Martinelli for Odegaard or possibly Saka (I can just about do it) switch After that I have my eyes on shifting Amiron and De Gea out in subsequent weeks which should see me negotiate GW25 with at least a full team playing and at least 4 players for the DGW teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's as nailed on as a Man City player gets If you don't have a third Arsenal player Nketiah for the upfront slot is a good choice because Jesus isn't coming back any time soon.

BOF Posted February 8, 2023 Moderator Share Posted February 8, 2023 Monster week for me. 110pts and a climb from 356k to 130k. Highest rank of the season. Hopefully all those who have used up their chips too soon will start to fall away now once the weeks get trickier. For example, 50% of the top 10k have already used their free hit. I won't get that high but that'll tell you, some of the positions up there may be slightly elevated at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Yeah, many 100 pointers this week. The Rashford TC big pay off. 77 points myself and a 30k red arrow. Not the end of the world. Triple Arsenal and double City for next GW as it stands. My main issue is Martial, he absolutely needs to **** off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 9, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2023 96 for me, but without playing the TC, so very happy with that. 450k green arrow and back to just outside the top 1m 8 green arrows in a row and I've gone from 2.7m to 1.1m. Can't complain with that. Back to thinking I might actually be able to scrape a half decent rank out of this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That move could be done if I changed to Odegaard but Saka is more of a differential for me and Arsenal must be due a penalty soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing Almiron and Bruno to Odegaard and Saka this week (I had Martinelli last week but moved him to Bruno for the double) Luckily I've got a bit in the bank to fund the KDB to Salah move. But yeah I'd agree with you that prioritising the arsenal boys is more important than getting Salah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
