Fantasy Premier League (2024/25)

Recommended Posts

The champ is having a bit of a mare.  
 

50/50 decisions have been backfiring consistently. Still confident of a top 200k finish.  Target of top 50k is still possible but I’m going to need make some ground  by the new year.  
 

I’m tired of being the wrong side of Palmer so will bring him in this week.  Son is a temptation. But a Palmer brace in a 3-1 win for Chelsea without him in my FPL will ruin my entire weekend. 
 

Also need a cheapish defender. Ait-Nouri is exciting and wolves have good fixtures for a long time. But Wolves haven’t shown any ability to defend. I do eventually want a Forest and/or Everton defender because you can trust Dyche and Nuno long term. But don’t love either fixture set.  
 

I read a stat that said DCL was the biggest underachiever of Xg in the PL last season. He’s been fucking awful.  Missed 2 sitters this weekend too. That was a bad decision based on that stat. But I’m keeping him for the next 2.  If he doesn’t get a return, he’s out.  I’m sick of him.

I'm in a similar boat, I only have 1 FT and have a Saka issue. I cant decide if I go Saka to Son or just let Gabriel fight for his life without Saliba and hold the transfer to make 2 moves next week.

I expect Saka to start but I’d go to Son. Better fixtures over the next 3 or 4. That is if you’re planning to roll Soonish as you might want Saka back kinda soon.

Still have to monitor Sons injury situation now. Son is out tomorrow. Think he will be fine aswell for the weekend though.

 

Edit: apparently just sore, and they didn't plan to have him involved anyways.

Haaland TC this weekend? Couple

of goals tonight and the best remaining home fixture against Southampton coming up.

 

Gonna have very little, if any, double gameweeks this season.

He’ll get 13 in total. 
 

Great start for me too. TC active.  This is the week DCL has got to score.  

 

Nice, I've used my free hit like, need to pick up the pace. You got Haaland on your TC I assume?

I took the hit of captaining Saka to make sure he did nothing against us today.  You're all welcome.

I put Gabriel in my starting 11 - guaranteeing no clean sheet

What is everyone thinking about Haaland - worth moving on at this point? 

It’s v. viable. 
 

I got a number of other issues to deal with.  TAA, DCL & Foden and only 2FT.  
 

Solanke is a rank killer too. Massive haul. Glad it’s this week as ownership must have declined a lot. 
 

I’ve had 3 consecutive top 10 finishes in the NO league (did I mention I won last season?) but not been able to get it right.

Shout out to my mate for finally giving up the ghost with Solanke this week. :lol:

 

That would be me this week too. Got Rogers and Hall on my bench too

Bit the bullet last night - Haaland and Rogers out for Cunha and Salah. It isn't even so much Haaland's absence of form as much as the reinvigoration of Salah this year under Slot - he's starting to feel like he may be essential.

 

Impossible to accommodate both without instead sacrificing one of Saka/Palmer. Making the right choices with those four is going to prove pretty decisive this year I think. 

 

TAA is another interesting one - I sold a few weeks back as he doesn't seem to be getting forward as much. It doesn't feel like a year for premium defence in general, although things can change very quickly.

Good moves. I tend to wait u too late in the week to make transfers even if it’s the same ones I want to make earlier. 
 

I do think Salah, Palmer & Haaland is achievable for many. Not me though. 
 

 

I also want Cunha and Salah. Actually not so hot on Salah but Haaland isn’t worth the money atm and tricky fixtures coming up.

People keep taking out Rogers from their team, and I can't really understand it. Feels like a nobrainer to have him for that price. I guess after this round not many will drop him.
