bickster Posted February 25 Moderator Share Posted February 25 Already pulled the trigger on KDB for next GW, don’t like making transfers this early but the fear of losing value got the better of me (Saka in fwiw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I had an absolute monster week 89 points. Emerson, Branthwaite, Foden, Bowen, Saka, Haaland, Watkins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Was stuck with Bowen for ages as I had other issues to deal with so that was a nice return. Early move for the first time this season to get Solanke in for Alvarez before the price movements, hopefully that doesn't backfire with FA Cups still to go. Saka has Sheff Utd at the weekend but I assume it will still be a lock for Haaland captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect a bloody hattrick! Well done though. That's the kind of big brained move that gets you places in FPL. Watch the hoard jump on him now after the event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect a bloody hattrick! Well done though. That's the kind of big brained move that gets you places in FPL. Watch the hoard jump on him now after the event. That was part of my reasoning. Also that he has a game in GW29 so it leaves the potential of a no free hit Gameweek 29 open, although that's obviously very much at the mercy of the FA Cup results. But yeah that's gained me about 40k places overall (up to nearly 50k now) and I've gone 20 ish points clear in my cash league, which is a better position than I've ever been in The price rises from the inevitable chasing of the points will be a nice bonus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 I sold Porro for a bargain def this week, in preparation for trying to buy Salah back without a WC. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he's back for his double Me too. If he's injured, that's hilarious. 200k transfers in. Meanwhile 172k transfers out for KDB before his 4 assist haul against Luton. It's fairly clear to me (call me naive), that Pep was keeping KDB back for the tougher games. He didn't need him against Brentford or Bournemouth. He gives him a full run-out at Luton to make sure he's ready before a run of games against Man Utd, Liverpool, Brighton, Arsenal & Villa. They're title deciders, and they're exactly the games he'll need KDB for. And they're the games he'll do well in. I'm holding him. I think people have sold at exactly the wrong time. I think that's why he's a troll. People buy him for exactly the games City don't need him for, and then they get nervous heading into the fixtures where he thrives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
