Saka you bastard

@GianniButtice Went with Dango in the end, but not Thiago. Fortunately DCL matched the points of Thiago this week so I’ve come away unscathed!

Doubled up on wildcard because of the two remaining home games. West Ham and then Palace off the back of their double gameweek.

GW36 Bus Team - TRIPLE CAPTAIN ACTIVE! This, this looks tasty!

@FPLPapa @FPL_Harry ChatGPT did the legwork to be fair but I agree 🤣

@WOWfpl @FPL_Harry All that for a like Deserved more maybe

Reposting after I deleted… Semenyo hooked vs Burnley and then not in the squad vs Southampton. 🤷‍♂️ Not been in any training photos since before the Southampton game where he was pictured after Burnley. #FPL Sure it’s nothing and he’s fine but just slightly weird.

I cannot wait for the deadline so the WC35 stressing is over

@FPL_Marcello Olise too? 🤣

The sudden urge to pick Eze and Guehi so that I have 5 Palace players in my FPL 🤔

@FPL_Harry @brightonargus Yeah not blaming Ben at all, easily done if a main source misquotes! Main thing is, Gross should be fine 😅

@WOWfpl It’s from @brightonargus misquoting not Bens fault

A few people asking about misquotes on Gross today. Gross is fine I think. The quote is Milner and March being CLOSE to return next week rather than Milner and Gross returning next week. Close vs Gross 1:38 in the press conference if you want to look. youtu.be/HroZm-ujqiE?si…

As close to locked as I’ve been all week! Rogers/MGW to an Arsenal attacker in GW37, enough £££ to reach Saka if he becomes an option. Prefer the upside of Struijk and Raya, over Saliba and Darlow, plus Raya is playable in 37 and 38. Rogers, Gross or MGW to bench in GW35…

Bench one for GW35…

@FPL__Raptor Unsure as to why Gross was mentioned if not true, but post was updated so appears to be a mistake?

I’m pretty sure these 13 players are locked on wildcard. I just need to pick two midfielders and I have £12.4m to spend. I quite want a Brighton midfielder, and would love to take a risk on Mitoma, Minteh or Hinshelwood, but Groß is the safest for mins. I then need another midfielder to rotate with the Brighton mid, so someone with a decent fixture in GW35 and GW38. Stach, Summerville, Tavernier. Which two mids up to £12.4m combined would you go for?

@FPL__Raptor Benching migraine… I’ll begrudgingly bench Hill, Hendo and Lacroix are fine. But I feel like it is not worth going for MGW and not playing him, but surely Brighton assets against Newcastle are locked? Roger’s bench perhaps? I have no idea

Are there any transfers you are thinking about making in GW35 that you want my opinion on? What are your benching headaches for GW35? 🪑 Any other questions? 🤔

@FPLPriceChanges I mean most of them make sense, I just cannot believe he he is going up!

@fpl_tactician I mean the main 2 were probably Darlow and DCL, if anyone of the WC32 strat went Okafor or Bijol, I guess the points gained in 33 were worth it. Making me wanna go for Stach even more on WC35, not many none wildcarders will bring him in

WC32 and Triple Leeds -GW32 Locking in treble Leeds 4 days before they play. -Buying Treble Leeds 8 days before the DGW33 starts -Relying on that treble Leeds being fine 3 weeks later for Burnley at home. WC35 and Triple Leeds - FH33 Treble Leeds on the day they start DGW33 -Wildcard in treble Leeds on the day they play Burnley.

Gyokeres out here like prime Tom Daley

@FPLKamran @FPL_Harry Out of interest, why does this make Eze attractive but Saka not at all? I get Saka but Eze confuses me

@FPL_Harry Rules out Saka on WC, but Eze has my attention.

Saka and Eze benched…

Thank god for that, buzzing he can have a proper send off

@FPL__Raptor What’s the latest on Stach? Didn’t catch the FA Cup game is he good for minutes?

Okafor was in my latest wildcard draft. Don’t think I’ll go there now. Tempted to just go for Stach/Ampadu instead. Or potentially Dango/Tavernier/Le Fee. Basically need a cheapish midfielder that’ll only play in GW35 and maybe GW38.

@FreddoAkh Stach not a bad shout actually, hadn’t thought of that. Don’t hate it!

@WOWfpl Okafor doubt?? Ohh ffs Wonder if Stach is the solution

With the news that Okafor is a doubt for Leeds in GW35, a small rethink on my WC35 plan. Okafor could in theory just drop down to someone like KDH instead. Thoughts? #fpl #fplcommunity
