How ‘The Great and The Good’ FPL managers did in Gameweek 2

Barco Hall Nkunku all problems there
I can’t see Chelsea changing the team much for next game, maybe drop Mydryk but could be for Neto
Long term Nkunku is not a keeper with that rotation risk.
Rogers would be a fair shout

I'd be tempted to ditch Hall first, watched the game against Southampton and he was gash. Always a chance Nkunku comes on and scores

D
E
F

Given u got 3 defenders i assume u need at least 1 of them

C,D,E

I'd play A, D and E.

Robinson, Rogers, Muniz

next 5 fixtures show AVL, IPS, CHE sort by overall difficulty for me

No looks good keep another FT, captain?

Don't have to start all three every week, so for the next few yeah.

I would have 2/3 rotating

I've gone for all 3 on wildcard and no not confident.

Raya/Fab

Gvardiol Konsa Robinson Veltman Mazraoui

Salah Palmer ESR Rogers Madueke

Haaland JP Wissa

don't be blinded by the prices.

You have to ask yourself if they are important to their team, which at the moment I would say yes they are and therefore you'd expect them to start and be involved in their teams deliver points.

They're all pretty decent options to be fair. Wouldn't say i am confident but for now it seems a risk worth taking to facilitate Haaland, Salah, Palmer and Saka.

JP?
Jordan Pickford?

No, I would keep Gordon and Isak v TOT at home

I would keep at least one for spurs.
Given the double change i will keep n assess next gw

I've done it, will cap Palmer for the next few.

Slightly important - could be compensated with other defenders I think

fully depends on Liverpool's continued ability to keep clean sheets. early signs are good with more controlled approach.

so far he doesn't seem to be playing on any sort of a leash, but the fixtures have been kind so United away is a good test to see how involved he can be up the pitch in a tough fixture

if TAA can manage 5ppg this season he's value for money and then some

Not essential as long as you have other Liverpool cover

With liv keeping cleans and him creating 30 chances a game, every gw is good chance of a haul

I think I'd have Rogers vs Leicester alongside any of the premiums, he's looking sharp and due a decent haul I think.

Why don't you WC Haaland back in? I'd suggest having Jota and TAA is a little overkill. I'm considering Raya to save some $ on Saliba/Gabriel (accepting they do have goal threat!)

Foden is a big gamble

Can you wildcard back to your old team?

KDB instead?

Try and remember your thoughts when you took Haaland out. It must have been because it was a good idea to you and someth If you can recall your rationale, you'll feel better with the team, I think.

Probably.

Solanke to Jackson may work for you in short term

I like it.
Pedro every week is a question mark but has all the big hitters

I like the set up but I’d go for nailed defenders

Lewis Burn Nedel all at risk?

Awful wildcard

I’d sell Burn and the villa defender
Newcastle nearly got Guehi
Villa after a right back

I really like it. I would downgrade 1 premium to strengthen defence. Havertz instead of Saka?

Not sure where the rest went

Raya
VdV, Robinson, Nedj
Salah, Palmer(c), Jota, ESR, Onana
Haaland (vc), Havertz

Vald, Pedro, Mosq, Greaves

Has to be Johnson considering Chelsea just scored 6. I always favour the CS odds, though...

Madueke

Haaland Salah Palmer needed is clear x

Most people set up for 2/3 weeks, I’ve made a fast start and I won’t lie, I’m playing with what I can do.

All this ‘we don’t have enough info yet’ doesn’t really have weight, unless you’re clueless about football, you know what players are good and who’s not.

You don’t need 6 weeks of data to tell you that Haaland, Salah, Trent, Saka etc are good players in good teams.

Also international break and CL coming that can result in injuries and benchings. Most of the people wildcarding have decent or even good teams already.

Being able to bank more transfers will help though
People screaming for Palmer and have deadwood already

Plus clubs are buying proven world cup and UCL winning players....

Palmer had 17 points in an away game

He'll be 11m soon

I’d activate with that team to be fair

This team does NOT need a wildcard this week

no need to wildcard this week at all.

Not sure I’d go without both Salah or Haaland (though that said it could work out). However it looks like that is easily remedied with a -4 this week or done across 2 GWs for no hit.

Not worth WC

I dont like how the team is set up though im not sure if i will WC this myself.

Easy A

Velt

Konsa or Porro... Konsa

Why would you even consider benching A?
Don't see clean sheets for any of them. I'd probably bench C on the basis he has less attacking potential than the rest.

C

C becos the ceiling is likely lowest

Muniz

B

Muniz is gonna cook this week.

Very likely to. But if you plan to give Solanke a few games to see if he’s worth keeping, how would that impact your transfer plans?

Could be, if there’s anyone in their price ranges you would rather have that you would bet on getting 4 points more

Depends if the transfer improves starting 11

GTG

Looking good

Cheers

Bench and team overall are good enough, don’t see the need to WC with that lot

Looks fine to me but I’d prefer Saka than Hav

Poor backup if Lewis misses out.

Gordon to Mbeumo (assuming Toney leaves) and use 0.5m in def

Don’t like the amount of money tied up on your bench, otherwise good.

If I gotten raya, i would just go with a 4.0 keeper.
