Stevo985 Posted May 1, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 1, 2022 Bit frustrating that I went for Coutinho over Foden and Foden ended up playing and getting two assists. But hopefully Coutinho is the better pick over the run in purely on number of fixtures. Watkins has hopefully paid off though. Salah 1 pointer is a real kick in the teeth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted May 1, 2022 Author VT Supporter Share Posted May 1, 2022 So glad I swapped the captain from Son to Salah last minute. Ditch the chip. Hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 4 0s so far, and Salah as captain. Oops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 1, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 1, 2022 3 shocking weeks in a row for me. If my BB doesn’t pay off next week then I’ve absolutely **** it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted May 2, 2022 Author VT Supporter Share Posted May 2, 2022 Salah captain, triple Chelsea and Schmeichel keeper but still somehow got 59 points and a big green upto 52k. Tonight's game should push me down again though as have nobody in it. BB next week with 12 doubles and triple Palace against Watford. Have 2 FTs but not sure if I want to use them apart from ditching Son which feels wrong after a 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my BB doesn’t pay off next week then I’ve absolutely **** it 49k to 81k+ in 3 gameweeks. I was confident of top 50k, now I'm looking over my shoulder hoping to hang on to top 100k I'll have 15 doublers next week (after a -4) so hoping that's enough to pull me back up the rankings somewhat.

AshVilla Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 15 pts on the bench. Digne who nobody had a sniff that was starting and Dubravka with 8 points against Liverpool despite not keeping a CS. Just can't make it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted May 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted May 3, 2022 The weirdest and least satisfying green arrow I think I've ever got, but I'll take it. 50pts and up to 63k from 66k. Got out of jail with the 2 big Spurs boys (31pts). Other than that, a stink out. Next up for my bench boost I will be turning Son into either Mount(WOL/lee) or Foden(NEW/wol) and the non-playing striker Richardson into Watkins(bur/LIV) or Richarlison(lei/wat). Mount more nailed but Foden the higher ceiling, Watkins more prolific but Richarlison the better fixtures and the more motivated but the shiter team.

wilko154 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Finally made it to the top of the VT league. Now to try and retain my place for the remaining GW's. Lucky with the Son captain this week, I was set on Salah all week until an hour before deadline. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good time to be hitting some form too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will want him but Richardson has gone down in value so I can't do a straight swap back. So it'll be a hit and a downgrade elsewhere, which isn't too bad given it's the penultimate week, but not ideal and the only thing giving me pause at the moment. I think I'll do it though because going from a non-player to a double player is too big a jump not to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I ditch him I'd want him back in 37 which is why I want to swap him for another premium but can't find one I want for the right price. Despite scoring a ridiculous amount recently I'm not convinced he's actually done that well and has been lucky with his shots (seems he always is though) and the two fixtures aren't great. His EO is putting me off though as if he does haul I'll miss out massively as he's almost must own. Have to decide if I'm gambling to increase rank or consolidating to stay where I am.

BOF Posted May 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted May 3, 2022 He's fixture-proof and he could tear Trent a new arsehole. It's entirely possible I sell him and he hauls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted May 4, 2022 Moderator Share Posted May 4, 2022 Current thinking is now just keep Son. Swap Broja out for Mateta or Joao Pedro and roll the 2nd FT for 37. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing Watford at home is tempting but he's not really done much since I brought him in a few weeks ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing Watford at home is tempting but he's not really done much since I brought him in a few weeks ago. I'm erring on the side of Mateta instead of Pedro because Mateta has a very good double in 37 and one of the best fixtures in 36. I don't mind him singling in 36 because I don't want to waste a valuable transfer on swapping budget players around in 37 so I can forget about that slot with him there. I want my 2 FTs to be power plays in 37 if at all possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was choosing between Mateta and Pedro it would be Mateta. What's your thoughts on Nketiah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
