GW23 Matchday Thread

shmeee

FT rolled. Main issue was the benching dilemma.

Dubrakva

TAA, Porro, Trippier

Saka, Foden, Ricky, Jota, Palmer

Haaland (c), Solanke

Areola, Alvarez, Estupinan, Kabore

It's a week where there could be big scores on benches, many had decisions to make.

Good luck all!

ForestFire

Gordan it will be so for captain, KdB VC.

Haaland not back in my team yet, have the funds to swap him in for Watkins, Solanke or Alvarez, but they all seem good options to keep this week while Haaland is "recovering".....

Flaneur OBrien

Best of luck all

crushproof

Dubravka

Akanji Udogie Estupiñan

KDB Gordon (C) Douglas Luiz Richarlison Saka

Watkins Solanke

Areola Branthwaite Semenyo Saliba

Really not liking my squad right now, so hard to know who is going to perform or underperform. No Haaland or Jota could be catastrophic.

Nice with Udogie as many are on Porro. Differential at this stage surely.

Ace2007

Ricky gotta be the best value player out their for his returns v price atm

If it wasnt an early kick off he would have be being decent captain choice.

Ricky is killing me, going for Foden over him a few weeks ago was a mistake

shmeee

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121715856#Comment_121715856

He's not even listed in the top 10 list of EO or captains in top 10k. Surprised at how is EO is well under 40%.

Don’t really get it at all - while Saka ownership is through the roof despite the poor form, and that Jesus plays up top.

I get that there are so many good mids at the moment but for his price and returns no real reason not to have him.

sheroman01

Lads. I benched Richarlison. Brought Gordon in and benched Richarlison. Early KO. Thought it’d be low scoring. I feel sick. Please god Foden doesn’t play on Monday …

I feel for ya, the only reason I didn’t consider doing the same was I thought with it being Everton he might do well. I had to bench Foden which doesn’t feel great either

extra gravy

Estupinan bench 🙄

No real surprise considering how rubbish he was last time out.

Was he any worse than the rest of the defence? I didn't see any of it, just annoying that he's missing out on such a good fixture.

Cartman78

Brantwaithe goal....on my bench of course

ForestFire

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121716180#Comment_121716180

Same here, The Only change Id say is a Gusto no-show, but he will likely get the few mins cameo!!

Newbie20

Branthwaite 3rd sub for me when I’ve played him every week recently but never feel too bad about those ones, realistically picking him against Spurs wouldn’t have made sense.

gammygils

So 1 point for Porro and Perv benched the only 2 defs I held on WC

Ace2007

Really need Luton to score - was all set to do VVD to Tripper until I saw news that pool had DWG confirmed and just left VVD in team

ArmaniJeanss

Brighton 1-0 Dunk (Gros).

ForestFire

Ace2007

So Longstaff was the Newcastle mid to go for?

ArmaniJeanss

Gordon with the assist for Longstaffs 2nd goal.

Fulham 2-0 up at Burnley. Goals Palinha/Munoz, assists by Perriera/Robinson.

crushproof

Branthwaithe first on my bench so of course Espu will come on for a 2 minute cameo!

ArmaniJeanss

Another assist for whoever has Gross on their benvh.
