FPL notes: Odegaard’s influence, why Wood + Havertz were subs

After next game

Mbeumo against LEI (H)?

Not yet.

At home to Leicester?

Possibly a captain v Leicester (H) then sell

I am trading in Mbeumo for Saka after the Leicester game.

Haaland and Johnson to Pedro and Saka, save 3rd FT

Need to see your defence.

Why tou have soucek??

Saka is confounding many right now and is relatively a differential among big hitters.

Depends on how many FTs you have. Saka/Arsenal have midweek UCL and Semenyo is suspended so you only have Mykolenko/Lewis to cover any injuries.

Don't think you necessarily need make a defender transfer this GW

I'd go Son to Saka personally. RAN 1 cleanie all season. Only 1 attacking return during last 5.

Raya/Fabianski

Great score this week and impressive overall rank gain

Really good. I'm on 29! Lol

Depends on the rest of your attackers.

Rogers - 8th attacker in a rotation
Semenyo - set and forget 7th attacker (after 1 game ban obviously)

Semenyo.

Rogers as Semenyo releases more funding. They're broadly level on merit.

Something to do with DCL 😛

Yes.

Tricky. Ideally I'd like to keep Semenyo and sell Mbeumo after Leicester, but the ban means you'd have to play Rogers against Chelsea, which is far from optimal.
I'd probably do it, yeah.

Similar team to mine above bar Haaland obviously. Haaland out maybe? Plethora of options and allowing Saka next week or after?

Not much to do with one free transfers, you probably roll to keep your options open for next week. Unless you want to be really adventurous, take a couple of hits and do an extreme makeover.

Haaland & SL to Isak & Cunha-4 should allow plenty of upgrades elsewhere. Hits feel a lot better this season, not sure why.

Perhaps just Watkins to Pedro this week, keep Mbeumo for LEI (h), then get Salah in GW14?

Oh, I remember, you have a dream team for next week. Wissa seems to be the focal point of their attack when both are playing, but Mbeumo gets 1 extra point for each goal and for clean sheet, is on penalties and is more likely to play 90 minutes because of Thiago.
I'd lean towards playing Wissa, but it could go either way.

Haaland or Palmer

Long term I'd say Gabriel and Konate are great value. No one else stands out really. Hall/Ait Nouri/Van Hecke/Colwill/Timber are some decent choices.
Estupinan has good fixtures, but is too expensive, does not carry enough attacking threat, Brighton is a good but not great defence, he isn't 100% guaranteed starter.
