StefanAVFC Posted December 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 21, 2023 Yeah I'm not happy either. Isak yellow, Pau out. Already taken a -4 as I needed to get Haaland out If Isak doesn't play it's going to be a bad week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 A rare start for Archer for me this week. You just know it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-k Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 39 minutes ago, BOF said: It's weird. Only a quarter of people who owned him have sold him. That's still over 2m people, but he's still owned by 6.5m. We don't know how many of those are active or zombie teams. I'd say many teams who are both engaged and experienced in the game are getting rid with a plan to bring him back. It makes no sense to hold on to 14m quid for a minimum of 2 weeks and what now looks like maybe being more than that. I still have him, mainly because it wasn't 100% he would be out last GW. I would need to take a -4 to get him out, but I should be OK without doing so this GW and even next if he doesn't play and I need to use my free elsewere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Pau confirmed out, means I need to go 442 with semenyo and Watkins up top and have to hope Gordon plays otherwise I will be playing with 10 men. Gordon seems to be the saka of newcastle in the sense that he will always play if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted December 21, 2023 Moderator Share Posted December 21, 2023 3 hours ago, Wainy316 said: What's the general consensus with Haaland? Are people keeping him in to protect against price drop or selling him and strengthening elsewhere for the next couple of GWs? I don’t see how it protects against a price drop. He started the season at 14.0 rose to 14.1 at one stage dropped to 14.0. I sold last week at 14.0 where I bought in preseason. Lost nothing. He’s now already dropped to 13.9 so if I buy him back I’ve already liberated 0.1 to use elsewhere. Moving forward to AfCon and Asian tournament I’m going to have to keep hold of Son and Salah unless I want them gone for good because the price differential is too great to get back when they return so I’m attempting to build some wiggle room into my defence and attack to allow me to get 11 players on the pitch in those gameweeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 21, 2023 Udogie out, Trent in. Let’s go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 A lot on Watkins captain this week, I don't fancy him vs a low block team he seems to struggle to get involved. Went with Son captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-k Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Apparently Haaland was the most captained this week. Shows how many dead teams there are out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Also went Son captain. Transfer in was Richy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 I went with watkins as captain, I feel it’s his time to haul again and just got a feeling that he will Be fired up after the personal abuse he received last week. Most people in my mini leagues have gone for watkins but some opted for son or salah. All decent choices and an arguement for any one of them tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomav84 Posted December 24, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 24, 2023 so my cup tie this week in the overall cup: both scored 50, so tie is decided on most goals scored, fewest goals conceded, virtual coin toss pretty sure i lose because the teams my players play for scored 1 less goal than the teams my opponant's players play for. that's annoying.
