    De Gea (Nordfeldt)
    Lowton, Chilwell, Duffy (Dummet, Long)
    Sanchez, Salah, Son, Willian (King)
    Kane, Lukaku, Austin

    103.5 on the nose for 10 doublers plus Salah. Defence is very weak of course!

    "Tottenham have lodged an appeal to the Premier League in a bid to ensure Harry Kane is credited for their second goal against Stoke, according to Sky sources."

    "Obviously as a striker, it would be great to win the Golden Boot again and I will keep working hard from now until the end of the season. I swear on my daughter’s life that I touched the ball! But there’s nothing I can do."

    The man is that desperate for goals.

    A DGW against West Brom and Newcastle will be very hard to resist. I think I'll TC him then.

    Golden boot. Daughter. Golden boot. Daughter.

    Mmmm.... How big is the golden boot?

    Desperate stuff from Kane, you'd have to wonder what Eriksen thinks of it all and how it affects team morale.

    More to the point, can the points be reallocated to Kane now the gameweek has passed? Is there a precedent for this?

    Kane in Aubameyang out
    Artnaovic out Young in to pay for Kane
    -4

    Kane looks like he'll do everything to get that boot

    My don't care much about the doubles team

    De Gea
    Maguire Moses Smalling Lowton Goldson
    Salah Sterling Eriksen Son McTominay
    Kane Wood Austin

    My I adore doubles and Salah team

    De Gea
    Vert Smalling Lowton Long Goldson
    Salah Hazard Eriksen Gross McTominay
    Kane Vardy Wood

    Both should come in cheaper I think?

    No precedent for a player himself appealing rather than dubious goals committee themselves changing it at a later date
    Precedent for gameweek points being changed after deadline for Gareth bale assist and bonus

    Their rules are "fluid" for almost everything now !

    If you are playing FH next week you absolutely have to have either Sanchez or lukaku
    Sanchez ideally

    I'm not but yeah that was a quick thrown together team for interest sakes. First team could probably accommodate either with small adjustments. I personally don't see a United goalfest these next two games despite the opponents. Would be happy looking at alternatives.

    There are a couple of big differences though. The Bale assist was clearly an incorrect call by FPL. I’m also 95% sure the cut off wasn’t as tight as it is now (1 hour) as I think the tight cut off was brought in in response to the Bale one.

    Also, the referee would have recorded the goal on saturday as Eriksens. Kane is requesting a referees decision is overturned. It’s effectively the same as appealing a red card. FPL will not change points after the deadline based on an appeal of a refereeing decision. They would have no option but to give points back to anyone who had a player sent off who subsequently had the decision overturned.

    Refs report not a factor in goal scorers and would not have been received by FA Saturday anyway
    But I agree it won't be added by FPL anyway WHEN it's awarded to kane
    And it will be

    Free Hit active this week. Looking for any tips/guidance, team is as follows

    Smalling Chilwell Lowton

    Sanchez Son Mahrez Salah

    Kane Vardy Austin

    Subs Coleman Rosenior Mbemba A.King 0.1 ITB

    If you're doing a free hit surely you'd have 11 DGW players?

    I would absolutely 100% have 10 + Salah if I was FHing (As he has)

    Liverpool playing champions league just a few days after West Brom in the skinny gameweek. Huge rotation risks now for their big players, particularly Salah. I am free hitting that week so will be looking at the likes of Ings, Ox and Clyne.

    I personally wouldn't. Guys like Alli/Eriksen/Pogba/Hazard represent a better chance of getting more points over two games for me.

    Salah 8.8 PPG
    Eriksen 5.7 PPG
    Alli 5.1 PPG
    Pogba 5.6 PPG
    Hazard 5.5 PPG

    It's a tricky one. I could go Vardy and Salah to Willian and Lukaku. That would leave me with 0 in the the bank and needing to get rid of Smalling.

    Ya, don't get me wrong, it def is a tricky choice and I can see above some think go Salah, but I'm just not seeing how (if going by PPG) it's the logical choice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,683 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Just realized that if I'm set on TC Kane in DGW37, I'll probably need to BB this week. No FH or WC left, but my options on the bench aren't the worst. Think I'll do it. (Hennessy, Mustafi, Mariappa, King)

    Two things:
    1. PPG only becomes relevant if players play both games. All 4 players you mentioned have a Cup SF straight after the DGW - and realistically the Cup is all any of them have left to play for. There is a good degree of probability that some (ie: the one he chooses!) will be rested - Eriksen and Hazard especially I would think.
    2. Salahs one game is at home...to Bournemouth!

    High possibility Salah won't be playing buddy.

    You have to look at it as if the players will be playing both games (going by season trends so far). You can start looking into stuff too much to be honest.

    Agree
    Why would Klopp risk his best attacking getting injured before the Semi-finals.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,520 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    So Salah can forget about the rest of the season going by that logic? Not sure he'd agree. I thought the same myself but changed my mind about this coming week. He'll play.

    I’ll be stunned if Salah doesn’t play. Absolutely no reason he won’t, it’s 10 days before the SF
