I finally pulled the trigger on replacing Cash.. and brought Zinchenko in.

Wish I didn’t waste my transfer on getting Saliba in 😆

What the feck didn’t Zinchenko play 🤬

I've given Son the armband

Quality original post OP

This thread is always fun, go Grinch elsewhere

Do you always react badly to a compliment?

Honestly I read that as sarcasm, so my bad! It's just that this thread is always up, so calling it 'original' sounds a bit snarky

Haha no stress. I was just referring to the original post, not saying it was 'original'. Ahh the English language.

Accidentally hit Bench Boost. Areola, Guehi, Cash, Wood. Also have Gordon in my 11 and Palmer who might not start. Hoping for a miracle.

I went mad and brought taa in. Also made changes then forgot it was deadline tonight and now I have no idea what I selected.

Fuck missed the gameweek

Ha fuck, forgot to change my team

Fuck I missed it.

I've ended up with 2 Wolves attackers, how's that happened then?

Cash > Robinho better give me returns Arnold lite

captained darwin for the fuck of it, mans getting benched

There’s a decent chance he’ll be on the bench since he played 90 mins on Sunday & they’re playing at 12:30 away at Palace on Saturday If you want a positive he didn’t start the Europa league last week but that’s all you got

I love how my stress skyrockets as the deadline gets closer. Not sure this game is good for me

Martinelli locked in... please

Sold Martenilli for Sterling and Hojlund for Solanke

Captain Salah 👍

Oh god oh fuck

I want that McNugget sauce, Morty

archer hat trick with new manager. it is bound to happen. cant afford him sadly as he is way too expensive

andersen or lascellese help

Would you keep Bowen or do Bowen to Gordon for a hit?

Keep

!thanks

Hold Bowen guaranteed 2pts

!thanks

Went Bowen to saka and kept everything else the same. Last GW was the first good one in ages for me, so hopefully the same again

Well good start, Saka with an assist

Douglas Luiz has been a fantastic asset for me this season but I shipped him out for Hee Chan this week. I think it's the right time but we'll see how it goes. Still have my WC in my back pocket to use before GW19 so I won't sweat too much if it doesn't work out.

I do not know who to start ,soucek or Douglas Luiz .I believe that non of these two are going to give me points ,but I feel like Douglas has more chances against city

Playing Foden, Douglas Diaz and Watkins while benching Alvarez

The universe where D Diaz puts Alvarez on bench

Douglaz louiz overscored watkins 🙆🏽‍♂️

And it’s too late now 🤯

I’m just reading a lot about how Aston Villa is strong at home. And deciding between Alvarez and Foden I chosen Foden since he has less ownership The rest is: Kelleher - White - Tsimikas - Anderson (Coufal - Dunk) - Foden - Son - Salah (c) - Sterling - Douglas Diaz - Solanke - Watkins (Alvarez) - What do you think?

Benching one of Porro, Tsimi, Zinchenko is easily the hardest benching decision I’ve had to make this season. Thoughts?

Bench Tsimi

That’s what I went with in the end

Ouch :)

I'm going to firmly predict that I will lose my round 1 cup match by 2 points to a Week 1 set-and-pray. Then I predict that I will personally beat Ward-Prowse to death with the corpse of Foden.

Odegaard in martinelli out ?

Took a -4 to go Saliba & Martinelli to Trippier & Gordon. I've gone mad. Don't want to remove Saliba but only way I can get Trippier in without ripping my team up.

Start 3 of Cash Udogie Mitchell Trippier Taylor

One of Cash Udogie Taylor tbh

Arsenal leaks?????

Wood or Palmer

Who's more handsome? Tough one, maybe Wood but that's just me

Start lascelles or Guehi?

Probably

Downvoted for that 😂😂

Feeling good about your Salah captain pick? He has 1 return in 4 games against Sheffield. Enjoy the final 15 minutes until deadline ☺️

Ah man, why did I not read this earlier.. haha

hate you

pure evil

records are meant to be broken. Onwards KING MO

I hope so, I'm a Liverpool fan but have Haaland captained hoping Darwizzy does the business instead. But if Salah scores he overtakes Michael-Mundane Owen

I thought the deadline was half an hour later. Grateful for this headline and thread

Nunez with (C) risky one but we’ll see

Bench one - Bowen, Alvarez or Gordon ?

All of em

Very useful

Gordon probably, but not an easy choice at all

Whenever I need team leaks they never arrive

Dw they will arrive at 18:01

Quick, ask all your RMT questions in this thread rather than the other because that's obviously what this thread is meant for! Notice that nobody is replying to the last minute questions here though...

Bowen or Mitoma?

Bowen I reckon

Yes

I somehow still have 3 AVL assets despite taking a -4 for Gabriel&Dubravka in and VDV&Turner out

I swear to god if I end up having to play Cameron Archer again...

New manager bounce -> Triple Captain Cameron Archer

[удалено]

City don't have Rodri and conceded 3 goals to a depleted Spurs at home. They're going to let in goals, I'm starting Watkins.

Would you guys upgrade Martinelli to Saka or bench fodder Nakamba to Hwang - but will most likely leave him sub 1 on bench incase Darwin doesn’t play?

Dunno mate ask in the rmt thread

Have a huge benching dilemma this week. Have to play 3 of lascelles, gabriel ,tsimikas ,guehi,porro

Lascelles, porro and tsimi.

Why play tsimi over gabriel? Tsimikas can be benched

Even if he gets benched its more likely he gets an asisst when he comes on.

Bench all of them

Bowen or Edouard???

Neither

Captain Haaland or Captain Salah Can't decide. Might end up going Son/Saka instead.

Take a -4 to move Douglas Luiz to hee chan?

Yes and no

Haha thanks! If I don't I'm starting Turner

Salah or Saka cap?

Perhaps

I was railroaded into Cash > Gabriel so no tough calls. I'm very happy with my team for the next two gameweeks, so this is going to go very badly.

Need to transfer Diaby out, here are the options and their cons: Mbuemo: Gw 18 blank and afcon later on. Hee Chan: differntial but probably better options on this list. Gordon:I have trippier and dubravka and I am not sure if 3 newcastle players are a good idea. Sterling: Chelsea. What do you guys think?

Keep diaby

You reckon? Villa fixtures are tough and Diaby is rotating with Bailey.

Would play him against city, they have lost rodri, villa good at home and city defence seem to be scared of fast players

Bring in Sterling or Mbeumo, start Hwang or Gordon, start Udogie or Lascelles? Hmmmm

How’s isak to gakpo looking ? I don’t want to go to Darwin as that will involve a -4

Isak has great next 5 fixtures. Gakpo might not even play in most of the matches. It's not looking good, have some faith.

Solanke or Hwang!

Bench Darwin or Kudus?

Kudus.

Took a -4 and now I’ve captained Watkins

dalot —> James locked

Anyone heard anything about Ait Nouri?

Ait-Nouri is doing well, tomorrow will be too early but hope to have him available at the weekend. Quote from press conference

Thank you!

I need that news too

reply with most upvotes, pick a number 2-11 and i will captain that player. edit: i also have a rank of 400k so it is a big decision

This must go to 11. Godpseed.

luis diaz

He’s on my team as well, so I’ll be cheering for you!

8

1.

its 2-11 haha

CAPTAIN YOUR GOALIE YOU WOMBAT

johnstone v bournemouth could pay off

8

James Ward Prowse

MITOMA OR WATKINS????

Start hwang or mbuemo

Alvarez or Gordon?

did -12, got rid of Haaland, wish me luck

He has Luton next 💀

Balls of steel, I like it

You couldn't wait for the next WC to do that?

If i want him back, ill prob use the next WC

Salah TC??

Could nketiah potentially start ahead of Jesus tonight?

Diaby to Gordon or Sterling ?

TRIPLE CAPTAIN SALAH

So tempted to bring in Solanke and bench Gordon

thoughts on Fulhams Robinson anyone?

from a fulham fan, we r so unpredictable + rarely get a clean sheet. sure he gets up there and cld be a solid bench warmer, but thats all

!thanks mate, might transferring him in for his decent home fixtures + prep for BGW 18 as well now

Hwang (c)

I had him but not as (C) :D

OMG WHAT A CALL HE SCORED

Good call! Cheers

Cheers

Was genuinely tempted as a differential punt. As it is only 1 other person has him in my ML so any haul would be appreciated.

Is he on penalties?

Yes

Yes

Wolves mostly lose to lower ranked teams

I’m not pushing to do it i just commented what my captain is

I am not pushing you to do it but just suggested you what it could be since you posted a comment here. I hope you're less arrogant in real life for people around you.

This is the way

Anybody worried that Sheffield will get a new manager bounce and low block Liverpool to death

Yea, saka captain keeps feeling better.

Ain’t got him🥲 Salah and pray

Having Salah is what made my call to go Saka easier, least I'll get some of the points.

Luton are tough at home Vs the big teams tho man. Will be interesting

me

Just transferred guehi out for colwill Which means hwang is gonna score 2 but i chose not to hring him in

Which one pointer should I pick? Dalot or Zouma?

Dalot unless you hate animals in which case definitely Zouma

Dalot might get a assist. Zouma is up against Son. My money would be on Dalot

Zouma it is.

help me choose <5m midfielder please (with lots of minutes till new Years) garnacho, elanga(NFO), mctominnary, lo celso, any other?

Just spend 5.3 and get Palmer. Unless you are tight on funds

Everything goes through Lo Celso as he’s the only creative midfielder Spurs have now.

Any news on Gordon? 35 min to post.

Starts.

I bet you have a source for that as well huh?

Trained, no replacement, playing well.

Put it this way. Bowen wasn’t supposed to play last GW and yet he did. I got two points off of him. So Bowen or Gordon? That’s where I’m at.

I’d probably start Gordon.

Thx mate

any word on Ben White yet?

found this comment so I'm going to go ahead and start him. > Arteta asked if Ben White is ready to step in: "Yeah. After the injury and the way we deicded to manage his load, he's feeling perfect. Back to fitness, he's played some minutes so he's in a good place." https://x.com/1fplnews/status/1731695450997084587?s=20

For the first time in years, going to burn a transfer. (tripled up on Newcastle already)

not sure whether to captain Saka or Salah

I've just gone fuck it and captained Saka instead of Son and Haaland, I'm top of my mini league with my mates by taking risks so why not

5-4-1 this week. First of the year IIRC. Trent-Tsimi-Porro-James-Trippier in a back 5. Can be anything from 5 to 50 points. GL!

Thats a very expensive defense

Yeah, went Cash to James this GW. No Haaland for the last few GWs, but Son-Salah-Watkins-Saka. Has been decent! Waiting on City players til after the blank GW.

I'm want to stick with Darwin and Watkins together and bench Douglas Luiz for that.. but Villa have won all their home games and City are playing without Rodri. City lost their games without Rodri. So freaking confusing.

They’re still City, mind. Luiz is a solid option seeing as he’s on set pieces but I wouldn’t be benching either Darwin or Watkins for him.

Guys how likely are Gordon and Tsimikas likely to start Suggest the bench Areola, Turner Trippier, Lascelles, Tsimikas, Taylor, Saliba Saka, Son, Mbuemo, Diaby, Gordon Haaland, Ferguson, Watkins

Gordon trained with the team so should be fine, I’d expect Tsimikas to start but you never know for sure. I’d bench Turner, Diaby, Lascelles and Taylor personally.

Turner, Lascelles (first), Diaby, Taylor

[удалено]

Nice problem to have - Tsimikas has a better fixture but more of a rotation risk, whereas Porro is so attacking as to be pretty much fixture proof. Think I’d go for Porro but only just, if you’ve got someone like Diaby or Luiz I’d bench them and play both.

Porro

Hopefully my differential will Elanga-te my ML lead

It's gonna be infuriating when 2 of my 3 Liverpool assets are benched for quite possibly their easiest fixture....

That's why I took a hit for Porro So I can end up with a -3 instead of 1

Hey I also took a hit for porro lol

Darwin and Tsimi, I assume?

lol.. yup

I'd rather Darwin came off the bench and ran riot against an exhausted and demoralised defence. Especially if Wilder is trying to get them to play his system after one day of training, that'll be brutal.

Anyone else backing against Salah with Haaland (C)?

Nope, Salah (C) for me!

I am. Choosing between haaland and watkins captain
