Should've scored seconds before the Arsenal pen.

Fitz* · 13-03-2022 7:24pm

Ramsdale down to 1 bps again but will take his CS, save point + bonus.

Laca hitting form too. 6 returns in 5 games.

extra gravy · 13-03-2022 7:24pm

18 points from my 3 Arsenal boys, same again on Wednesday please!

Father Hernandez · 13-03-2022 7:25pm

FT 2-0

Bonus looks like Partey (3), Ramsdale (2) & White (1)

I have Ramsdale but White first sub and no chance of coming on. 🙃

73 after WC. 8 to go. HEWT.

Same as, ramsdale saving the day after dcl no show and Gordons 2 points

Rikand · 13-03-2022 7:35pm

I should have bench boosted. I have Coady 2nd sub who won't see the light of day with 14 points and I have Ramsey third sub who won't see the light of day with 10 points.

Fitz* · 13-03-2022 7:36pm

64 (-4) at the half way stage.

I'll take that anyways. Kane TC is the big one midweek for me.

Will have 4 playing in Arsenal v Liverpool so gonna lose out there unless it's a 0-0.

Good scoring. You happy to have went with WC?

Im on 67 now & I have 10 to play.

While some previous team players performed I wouldn’t of got 67 & didn’t have half as many games to come + the added GW30 fixtures.

Id definitely be WC on 31 with alot of deadwood.

The Everton punt of Pickford & Richarlison the only downfalls.

Predicted rise into 3.2k OR

extra gravy · 13-03-2022 7:45pm

Very close to top 10k now, will be a big disappointment if tc Salah doesn't make it for the second game. Only chip left now is 1 fh so will have to use fts wisely to maintain this position.

Father Hernandez · 13-03-2022 7:45pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118780114#Comment_118780114

I am yeah, my original 3 transfers would have me on 59 (-8) with only 6 to play so a 22 point swing so far which will probably increase as the GW goes on.

Plus, I'd only have 7 in the BGW whereas I have 11 now. (pending injuries)

Definitely a success so far and a nice green arrow. Toney did a lot of heavy lifting. Glad your WC is going well!

Fingers crossed it keeps swinging in our favour. The extra fixtures will hopefully help.

And as we said easier to go back to City etc. assets now as we know who not performing but tbh I’m happy with my Arsenal & Spurs assets for now

Mr.Nice Guy · 14-03-2022 12:36am

59 with 9 to go. Small green arrow but still outside 100k.

shmeee · 14-03-2022 10:49am

Watched back some of the Leeds game, wow, can't understand how Raphinha didn't have a monster haul, so close yet again.

14-03-2022 10:57am

75 with 8 to play. Six of the players are Arsenal & Liverpool though so I'll settle for a nice haul from TAA, Robbo & captain Salah.

Big thanks to Coady & Ramsey for the more-than-expected points hauls.

dr.kenneth noisewater · 14-03-2022 12:15pm

on 60 from WC with 10 to go, Toney and Coady on the bench stings.

extra gravy · 14-03-2022 3:47pm

Totally forgot there was a game tonight.

Fitz* · 14-03-2022 4:08pm

No Salah in LFC training today. Must be a doubt for Wednesday now.

Cartman78 · 14-03-2022 4:49pm

Any news on Willock?

Sounds like himself and Shelvey missed the last game due to illness... assuming it's Covid but have no idea what the return/isolation protocols are now.

Anoter disastrous FPL signing

Laporte first sub if he misses out.

Muahahaha · 14-03-2022 5:34pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118782251#Comment_118782251

yeah saw it myself, he hit the woodwork twice. Think it might be time to look at buying him back again as buying Wilock already looks like a mistake. Bamford also had a good chance that he blew well wide but as usual with him it takes him a couple of games to get his sharpness back. Just not sure he is worth the 7.7m though if him and Raph start firing again like they did last season it would be

Muahahaha · 14-03-2022 5:38pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118783965#Comment_118783965

That'll be another disaster with the TC chip on him, huge swing from those who got 28 extra points off him by TCing in DGW26

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118784981#Comment_118784981

I don’t think I’ve been so happy to hear someone is starting in a long time. I had Broja with a point coming off the bench if he didn’t play. More to the point, nobody in my league has Cancelo this week, could be a huge differential.

extra gravy · 14-03-2022 9:20pm

City looking shaky at the back

Fitz* · 14-03-2022 9:27pm

Cancelo hits the post.

shmeee · 14-03-2022 9:30pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118785352#Comment_118785352

Absoulte bullet and Laporte couldn't even finish the follow up, may have been offisde though.

Widdensushi · 14-03-2022 10:02pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118784344#Comment_118784344

Raph, James and Bamford, all had good chances, bound to pick the wrong one...

shmeee · 14-03-2022 10:16pm

KDB hits post, Mahrez misses follow up, great save.

extra gravy · 14-03-2022 10:43pm

Gallagher booked

Meanwhile never seen a player get away with as many fouls as Rodri does

extra gravy · 14-03-2022 10:54pm

0-0 FT

No subs from Pep...

siblers · 14-03-2022 10:56pm

Cancelo is an absolute baps magnet

shmeee · 14-03-2022 11:00pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118785720#Comment_118785720

Ya, Rodri was annoying me at end there with his carry on.

Palace just grinded that out and even had their own half chances at end.

shmeee · 14-03-2022 11:01pm

6 + 3 BPS for Cancelo, that's a very nice touch.

AlmightyCushion · 14-03-2022 11:04pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118785826#Comment_118785826

I really needed more from him but I'm happy enough seeing as it was looking like he might not even play this game.

Fitz* · 14-03-2022 11:07pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118785826#Comment_118785826

A nice evenings work for a Monday!

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118785860#Comment_118785860

At 30% EO at my OR, he's the lowest EO player on my team. Mental when you think of it. Him, TAA and Salah are 3 I've held since start and will hold until the end.

Newbie20 · 14-03-2022 11:27pm

Very happy with Cancelo’s 9. You always feel with him that there’s possibly more points to be got. But delighted considering he was touch and go to play

gammygils · 15-03-2022 12:52am

Cancelo 9 pointer turns by red arrow green

Up 15k

Muahahaha · 15-03-2022 12:58am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118785878#Comment_118785878

yeah I couldnt believe people were selling him, had a peek myself and it would have cost me 0.5m to get him back later so I wasnt giving up that value in him. Glad to get 9 points off him when others around my rank have sold him.

Fitz* · 15-03-2022 12:23pm

Salah should be fit to play against Arsenal now.

shmeee · 15-03-2022 12:34pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118787505#Comment_118787505

I found Klopps comments very confusing.... Not really an answer and 'could', 'maybe' or 'should' play.

Klopp; “Mo is a tough cookie. I got the message before the press conference saying he is ready to train. So we will see how it looks."

Fitz* · 15-03-2022 12:35pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118787569#Comment_118787569

Trying to keep Arsenal guessing perhaps, and throwing doubt into their minds.

shmeee · 15-03-2022 12:40pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118787573#Comment_118787573

If he trains ok today, he starts. That's about it. Huge game tomorrow night now with City dropping points last night.

Fitz* · 15-03-2022 12:46pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118787603#Comment_118787603

Yeah, I was wondering last night how much the City result would influence whether he plays or not against Arsenal.

He probably wouldn't have played the FA Cup game this weekend anyways, then it's an international break where he would have played 90 in both no matter what and then it's Watford before City & CL games.

So there was a chance that he could be rushed back for Arsenal but rested in the cup & Watford games. I think that is what will happen now. That could change of course, but that's my current thinking. He needs a rest at some point IMO.

Benimar · 15-03-2022 1:09pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118787643#Comment_118787643

I think he plays tomorrow and misses Forest. I do think he plays v Watford as the 2nd leg of the WC playoff is on the previous Tuesday so he has 3 full days to fly back and recover. I think he definitely plays Watford if the CL QF ends up being on the Wednesday.

That would give him games on 16th, 23rd, 29th, 2nd and 6th - very manageable.

shmeee · 16-03-2022 2:40pm

Salah is in London with the squad anyway for their walk around town.

Muahahaha · 16-03-2022 3:14pm

Should be a cracking game tonight, Arsenal are in very good form while Liverpool need the 3 points. Cant see a clean sheet on either side.

Fitz* · 16-03-2022 3:20pm

There usually is goals in the Liverpool Arsenal games. This is also the first time in 13 years that 2 PL teams are playing each other coming off a run of 5+ wins in a row. Arsenal have 5, Liverpool have 8. Coincidentally the last time this happened, it was also Arsenal v Liverpool.

As a FPL manager who doesn't own Salah and has 3 defenders playing, a 0-0 is needed.

But I'm a Liverpool fan, so I want Salah to score 5 and Liverpool to win!! Trent & Robbo assists if he does 😁

Fitz* · 16-03-2022 8:12pm

No Salah

Benimar · 16-03-2022 8:18pm

Salah on bench. Surprised by that, figured he would start.

Did you smash it · 16-03-2022 8:42pm

Kane misses an open goal from a tight but very makeable angle after Sanchez blunder
