Wanted to check if my paranoia about when I owned Sterling/Hazard/Salah was in my head or real.

I had Salah from weeks 1-6 - 37 points
I moved to Hazard week 7-14 - 39 points
I moved to Sterling week 15 - 17 - 8 points

Salah total - 113
Hazard total - 116
Sterling total - 112
My total - 84
:mad:

Think you should group them with the other 2million spend

i.e Sterling + x and Salah + x

Still sitting on the first wildcard. Squad is

Ryan Foster
Robertson digne Doherty AWB kola
Salah hazard Ricky Snodgrass Murphy
Kane laca success

Only pressing changes are keepers plus Murphy and success. Even those not too urgent. Not thrilled with laca and Kane but may hold for another week. Strange postion to be in tbh. Can see myself holding right up till gw20

He said he has his first one. He didnt say he still had his 2nd > 17th ones.

Its plausible.

Wilberto

No, I think he means his first of this season's batch. Up to now he's just been using the ones that he carried over from previous seasons.

can only base on my recent results and the trend i've seen where i'd consider more investment in midfield stock and lose one or both of your premium strikers in the forward line for other less expensive options (Wilson, Ings, Chico, Jiminex are as consistent as the two you've in)

Here's my midfield returns since GW 10 on my way to a current position of 286K from 1.4m

gw 10 47 good captain choice (30)
gw 11 31 bad captain choice (4)
gw 12 35 good captain choice (24)
gw 13 39 poor captain choice (16)
gw 14 28 poor captain choice (12)
gw 15 25 poor captain choice (8)
gw 16 50 poor captain choice (4pts )

that's 255 points in midfield alone in 7 weeks and I feel I lost 60 more by unlucky choices in captain. but you get that from not having the certainty of a striker I suppose. I have 75 points from my forwards but have not captained any of them once. an average of 47 points weekly from my front 7. hoping to hit a few consistent captain choices to keep the trend of green arrows.

Hopefully United players become viable options now.

Yep. They could be gold towards the end of the season if they get Big Sam in for the relegation fight. Fingers crossed.

They will for about 2 or 3 games
They will then revert to being the same players they have been under the other 2 managers
Season is a write of in terms of united players imo

Wilberto

Apparently Michael Carrick will take charge for the rest of the season.

boccy23

Carrick only for a few days until an "external caretaker" according to Sky.

Would Pogba be an option now?

Fair enough. I did say "apparently" because I didn't believe it either. Only heard it on Radio 1 but sure they wouldn't have a clue in any case! :pac:

Have Martial so if I get 2 or 3 games of a bounce out of him before it implodes again I will take it!

I’d go Martial or Rashford IF I was bringing in a Man Utd player. My view on Pogba is that he only plays when he feels like it. I wouldn’t touch him.

My thinking would be that he has to prove that Mourinho was the problem and not him over the next period to get a bumper transfer in January or most likely in the summer.

I’d agree with this 100%

Putting stupid pictures up on social media directly after Mourinho's sacking isn't going to help his cause.

May affect double gameweek planning

Agree, was waiting on the lineups before confirming this.

VeryTerry

Even when Pogba is at his best he is only good for assists. I don't think he's ever scored more than 8 goals in a league season anywhere.

I really regret selling salah now
Only did it to afford sterling and now I’ll probably end up keeping sane
If I didn’t have 2 FT I’d bank again and wait and see what to do
I might even end up selling mitrovic for..........whisper it ...........Rashford ! Depending on who gets United job . Expect a bit of a bounce and the games come so quick it could be 4/5 FF gameweek bounce

Anyone know anything about upcoming DGW's? Anything over Christmas/New years?

None that soon. Carabao cup final and GW27 overlap so some teams will probably have a blank.

Already brought in Pogba before I had a time to talk myself out of it.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

KDB is back!!

Another fpl headache incoming.

-=al=-

Off at 70 too!

Think I'll stick to the Sterling/Sane combo. Mahrez getting lots of mins here with Sane rested, Sterling on for 20.

Good news really but yeah more options for Pep
