Not a bad start. As we know things can change very quickly in this game. How many transfers have you used?

Just 2 & 3. I'm a lot more patient in this game compared to fpl which is I think I did well last season. The transfer limit is good for me.

That's absolutely fine. You're in a good position to rise up the rankings. The average transfers used is probably 6 or 7 at this stage.

Yep I'm not bothered, i never have good starts anyway in any of the games so I'm used to it. Who are you definitely bringing in on the overhaul? i havent looked at it yet.

See above for 2 teams I've put together. That's 5 players in both teams - Robertson Lamptey KDB Antonio Salah

Sorry, missed that earlier. Yea most of them will be in my team. Your first team would be very close to what i would be thinking, Lamptey is the only one that concerns me with his injury record this season.

Donegal1234

Both my teams are in 20k with 2 and 3 transfers used. Not to worried about my position was around same position last year when I won.

Won’t look at my overhaul team until next week.

Overhauled a couple of teams there

Martinez
Robertson Lamptey Dallas
KDB Bruno Antonio Pulisic
Salah Jimenez DCL

Patricio
Robertson Lamptey Keane
KDB Antonio Jorginho Trossard
Salah Kane Son

Had been set on double 'Pool defense but after that embarrassment yesterday and Alisson out injured, I think I'm happy to just go with 1

Wolves, Leicester and Spurs seem to be captain options anyway looking at the next 3 gameweeks. Fixtures not bad.

DJIMI TRARORE

6.4k and 3.8, double pool defence effing things up big time, I'm still in a state of shock. 3 transferred out on both teams

Leeds as well. With my 1st team the thinking is to get 2 captaincies out of Jimi before moving him on for Son against Burnley.

Haven’t looked at my team too much , won’t properly sit down and do it until Thursday. Can’t wait till overhaul is over and when the season really kicks off.

How’s your team coming on ?

Chopping and changing (as you do)

Currently on these 2 setups:

Martinez
Dallas Ayling Chilwell Robertson
KdB Antonio Trossard
Kane Salah Jimenez

Patricio
Dallas Gabriel Robertson
KdB Grealish Soucek Rodriguez
Son Salah Jimenez

Surprising no DCL in either team. Trossard interesting pick aswell.

May well have DCL in time. But starting out I fancy the Salah, Jimi, Kane/Son frontline. Jimi covers captaincies early on and I just fancy 'Pool and Spurs attack anyway.

I have 7 of your 1st team. Only different players are Marcal, Fernandes, Grealish and DCL vs Gabriel, Soucek, Rodriguez and Jimmy.

Defo taking him out for me. No guarantee he will be back next v West Ham next week.

Same. Keeping 0.6 in the bank is an option, possibly with a view to getting him in for Bruno after Man U play WBA. Madness though. I'd say there'll still be a lot with him in their teams tomorrow.

manual_man

Think I've settled on my teams. Team 1(50k o.r.) a little more punty as I'm chasing ground, and Team 2(10k o.r.) a little more template. Both teams cover 10 different teams - this is deliberate as I want to minimise transfers (initially at least) after burning more than I'd like pre-overhaul. Also with TV fixtures being announced at such short notice, I don't think it's such a bad idea to have more teams covered for potential captain days going forward. 0.6m in the bank team 2 (possibly for Bruno to KdB down the line). Nothing in the bank team 1.

Team 1
Martinez
Robertson Dallas Gabriel Chilwell
Bruno Antonio Trossard
Kane Mané Jimenez

Team 2
Patricio
Robertson Dallas Gabriel
Bruno Antonio Pulisic Grealish
Son Salah DCL

Best of luck to all

I saw in your ff hub article the potential tactic of having Grealish in for GW5, then swapping Grealish for KDB in GW6 (Assuming he’s back then) to get the 2 for 1 for that week. Sounds like a strong option

Least I know people actually do read my article. Lol
Have a feeling kdb could miss the West Ham aswell but will wait and see.

I put damn all thought into my overall teams. Kinda went on a mixture of teams people seem to mentioning.
Figured out people must be going for Wolves, Brighton and Villa for a reason!
Could not even be bothered trawling through the fixtures planning captain choices.
I dunno how people have the patience!

Both teams in the 300's dunno if it is bad or good only 2/3 transfers used on each team - prior to overhaul I think.

If you have a Leeds and villa player you will pretty much coverage most fixtures days. Do you mean 3k our 300k. Do a bit of planning now and you have none then for 4 weeks.

I wouldn’t

shineon23

I've still no real idea what's going on, with the points/scoring difference to FPL.

But gone with

Patricio
VVD-Dallas-Lamptey
Antonio-Pulisic-Trossard-JamRod
Kane-Son-Salah

2.5 ITB to move Pulisic to KDB asap

Question marks on whether I should risk both Lamptey (flagged and always getting hooked off early) and gambling on Pulisic (coming back from injury).

Over 300 points 313 and 323 both teams I meant. I suppose that is average or below?
