FPL Gameweek 7: Saturday’s goals, assists, bonus points + stats

Bit crazy I thought, did he do that because he was not feeling fully fit?

Saka is #1 but will decide in the moment who takes it. Leadership

Saka and odegaard decide between them. Havertz was a one off

Maybe this was a thing decided between whoever Arteta has picked to take penalties and to build confidence with players getting a goal.

Odegaard and Saka the main ones so looks like they will be sharing.

Think it's sensible to just assume he's off them and any he gets are a bonus

Why don't they make rule in football like basketball? The fouled player should take the penalty. Would be a nice innovation.

I think arteta mentioned that saka & odegaard will decide between themselves depending on how Saka feels

So yesterday Saka scored, then when 1st penalty was given he decided to give it to odegard (maybe wasn't feeling 100% fit yesterday & was only 1-0 at that point so crucial to get 2nd goal)

Then in 2nd penalty, they were quite comfortable so Saka decided to give it to havertz to boost his confidence

Gotta be Darwin, Klopp mentioned the only reason Darwin was benched because he had a slight knee issue
If he’s fit Darwin is going to be a massive differential

Even with 9 men on the pitch, LFC were quite good defensively. Matip own goal was unlucky.

Tough choice, Trent slightly more expensive but clean sheet and an attacking return sees your rank smiling.

In form Nunez on the other hand...

I would take a punt on Darwin. Gakpo possibly injured, Jota suspended and Salah and Darwin seem to have a good understanding together.

I'd probably wait before considering either.

Liverpool are still conceding goals and Trent is too expensive to bring in at the moment. Trippier and a clutch of 4.5-5 defenders offer better value than Trent at the moment and the money saved can strengthen the team elsewhere.

With Darwin, I think GW10 is a better entry point for him. Brighton away won't be an easy fixture in GW8 and the GW9 fixture against Everton is the early game right after the international break where Darwin (and Diaz) will be in South America playing the WC qualifiers 3 days before. Liverpool also had the early kick off after the last international break and both Darwin and Diaz were benched for that game.

Darwin of the 2. Liv rarely keep cs. And taa has become less threatening now if at all.
I personally am going with dias though as I got haaland alvarez and Watkins on WC now

Jackson Rashford Estu need moving on
Porro Cash Trent Son Diaby Watkins Alvarez Darwin possible options going forward

Your team would look much better just doing Rashford and Jackson to Son and Alvarez/Watkins. Wouldn't rush to WC just yet

Yep I did last night

I also did it last night. So yeah

Maddison GW8 if you did not have Son or other TOT's attackers

Maddison

If your defense is gtg then Mad

B

Probably look to get players around him in Darwin Diaz. Looking to assist more often

I am on wc and just can't fit Salah without sacrificing son/ Watkins/ trippier etc so put Diaz to cover. Think gakpo is out injured for a while which should boost his starts

No - Salah is firmly in my plans to bring in either by next week or after the international break. There are some fixtures in that run where he stands out as a better captain option than Haaland

I really wish I could have all the expensive players with good form and fixtures too.

Triple Liverpool excessive imo. 2 at most

What's the need for TAA? Liverpool have kept one clean sheet so far, yes they have nice fixtures but Alisson is still relied on to bail them out too often as we saw yesterday. I don't see him getting loads of returns

I am on wc too and I have the exact defensive line incl gk and fwd line but I have trippier instead of lascelles. But instead of Salah and chuk I have dias and Bowen. Gives me a bench headache but I ll live with it

If that's the worst feeling you have then you've got a good life my friend

I fell to sleep.I was going to activate it. Still might but that .4 has killed the team I wanted. It's part of the game though and has been since the beginning so you snooze , you lose and that is what I certainly did

That's what dreams are made of.
Actually, drams are in my opinion hugely important because when you leave this life you will become your dreams.

Most if not all of the Brighton team looked shaky in defence, especially Estu. Probably back in after a short break

C for me. Probably with Alvarez and Diaby

A

Both are good options but feel that Diaz and Alvarez are somewhat more nailed than Nunez and Foden

Nunez Foden.
50/50 call, in an ideal world I prefer Nunez Alvarez to both.

Have you got another Newcastle defender? If not, A is the go. If no cover, it's a coinflip for me.

A

Hah I'm in the same boat, rolled FT this week and was hoping to roll one of them into the IB, but could similarly see myself potentially needing a hit this week.

I think you're fine unless Diaby is out for a bit, then maybe need to deal with him. Would you really want to get rid of Diaby or Saka for Son if they're fit though? I know he's doing well and has a nice run now but they're both doing well too. Saka might make more sense mind given less of a workaround is needed

Similar issues, need funds to for:
JWP > Bowen
Maddison > Son
Archer > Watkins

Dusby came off injured.

Asking about GW10 as Turner looks good for 8 and 9

I'd just get Raya.

Arsenal often keep clean sheets away from home.

Wait and see if he's fully fit.

A

…supposing Diaby fit.

C if u don’t have Areola

Didn't see it but seems a bit strange, must have been extremely bad for it to have forced that

I totally agree with you. What about the fans who paid well earned money and travelled to the game? I bet they don't get their money back! The virtue signalling players made the excuse football took 2nd place when they were worried about the health of their player, but what if a fan has a heart attack and dies. They don't care! Hypocrites, the lot of them. The fans are never considered! There was only 6 minutes to play. The game should have been played out for respect the fans.

Rugby players do not get knocked unconscious all the time. There's a huge difference in a head bang and possible concussion and being knocked unconscious. Head injuries are more common in rugby than soccer alright but it's a collision sport, soccer is a contact sport. Rugby has a strict HIA protocol. Not sure that soccer does.

He may have unfortunately died but hopefully not.
I'm not a doctor but it must have been awfully bad for the adandonement except for the funeral directors and all that.

I picked up a guy guy from the pavement the other day prostrate, I thought he was dead, but thankfully not.

Eats huge amount of budget with the Dane

No he's really not. He's annoying not to own because he always finds a way with a lucky pen or just sheer brilliance but the wildcard teams I've seen on here to get Salah are very restricted and not that great.

He is if you captain him often to challenge Haaland, otherwise don’t think so

As long as cheaper alternatives are tracking his points, he's not necessarily worth it. depending on where you've spent the money and if your picks are scoring, you will have a different opinion. If he starts hauling in the upcoming favourable fixtures then maybe he will be become a bit more attractive to own, a bit like Trippier and his recent hauls.

Yeah even though I got him on WC this week, he realy restricts your options by taking up so much of the budget
I got rid of Saka for him but if kept Saka with that extra 4 mil I could have had tripper instead of botman & Watkins instead alvarez.

Got 0.8 ITB so can't react to much now apart from upgrading defenders

Do it.
One less Halland owner to worry aboot.

No. He will inevitably score a mega haul and when others are getting 30-40pts, ur rank will nosedive.
U can however try c others in some games

C

Looks good

Darwin has a ‘little bone problem in his knee’ s according to Klopp

Klopp quotes should be treated with caution because he has not quite mastered the English language yet or mastered his £100 000 dentist smile into anything less than crazy scary.
