It’s not great anyway and injuries means it looks ropey. But I have an easy way out of Meslier if I need it. Last night put me into the top 100k. I’m sure I won’t be there by the end of the weekend but it’s nice to see Same with me. I'm back upto 90k but will no doubt drop as the week progresses. Ayling has done nothing for me and their defence looks shot. Fixtures for the next 5 GWs are decent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Took Toney out. Of course. It was to facilitate Ronaldo along with my wildcard so hopefully it pays off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted September 18, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 No TAA or Torres. Great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted September 18, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 Crazy day of injuries and people not starting. Gone ok for me, captain Salah doing ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I could really do with Benrahma not playing so I get a nice Toney 12 pointer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't work perfectly but I'm still happy with the call though as I got Raphinha who scored too and has a better set of fixtures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightdm00 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 It pains to admit this but Ronaldo is a must own as far premium forwards go. His diving alone is going to earn 10 penalties at a minimum this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted September 19, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 19, 2021 I was so so close to getting Rudiger on my wildcard but decided to stick with Shaw until GW7. Very annoyed. Not quite the start to the wildcard I wanted but still a green arrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually CR7s swan dives are going to come good and barring injury will be 2nd behind Salah in points for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only one must own premium forward at the moment and he plays for Chelsea. He'll comfortably outscore ronaldo over the next 8 weeks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo has 3.2 xG versus 2.8 for Lukaku and Ronaldo has played half the minutes. That trend doesn't look promising over the course of a season.

It's a very small sample size, and one of Ronaldo's games was against one of the worst teams in the league. Ronaldo is a fine player to have. But given the fixtures coming up I'd wager Lukaku will be outscoring him over the next 8 weeks. And by a distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
