I also worked out that playing the TC chip on Haaland instead of Rashford only cost me 12 points, which I can live with. That chip is really over valued Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted February 9, 2023 Moderator Share Posted February 9, 2023 As much as I'd love to turn Martinelli and Bailey into Odegaard and Saka, it gives me 8 front players and a benching nightmare, so I think it'll be Martinelli and Shaw into Saka and Gabriel. That helps the defence in future weeks too. Although even at that I'm nervous of what Shaw can do against Leeds, after getting 6pts despite conceding twice last night.

Wainy316 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Do I swap Bruno back for De Bruyne just for this double gameweek (which includes a guaranteed point haul against us) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping to go KDB to Bruno after the Man U blank week KDB is less nailed on than he has been and is blanking an awful lot. I'm only keeping him right now because I have other fish to fry right now. Even if KDB plays a full 90 both games, it's highly likely on current form to be just 4 points, Bruno could easily outscore him despite the double Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very dangerous last night and was unlucky not to return. I think he will fancy his chances on Sunday in the return fixture and I wouldn't bet against him in any match on this form. Plus he's a 90 minutes per match man. Something KDB definitely is not. But it could also bite me in the arse. Ho hum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I’d stop playing the game if I ever decided Darwin Nunez is a good option. Never had him earlier on in the season and I definitely don’t plan to now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
