Unusual to take a risk by captaining Salah. Good luck all
63 from 8 with 2 points to come off the bench after forgetting to do any transfers in Friday so had no Pedro or Isak this week.
Still have Watkins to play
Unpopular opinion, but is Saka worth his price tag - hasn't score in last 5 games - sure he's got some assists but at 10m - is he a must have
He had 12,6,6,7,4 &5 each week,although see Palmer has NF next,thought he was away to pool,but that's after.
Tbf to him and arsenal they have had a very hard start to the season, city, spurs, villa, Brighton in the first 4 and 2 red cards to boot. So the stats would be somewhat skewed against the attackers.
Thad an xg of 6 today (understat so probably a bit high) and scored 4.
Saka had 7 shots and 8 key passes. Fairly unlucky not to have a return, has 6 returns in 6 games and is arsenals corner and penalty taker.
I really must transfer him in 🤣
And TAA had 8,6,6,1,11 but you think he's too expensive for his returns.
How did Saka get a bonus of 3?!
Well imo he is,Konate only 2pts behind him for 2m less.
Sold Salah, Havertz and Gvardiol on my WC.
AMA
Because he had a phenomenal game:
8 key passes
4 big chances created
2 shots on target
4 recoveries
93% pass accuracy
8 successful dribbles
6 accurate crosses
Anyone watching MOTD. Palmer could have had seven goals and an assist today....
What to do now.…
He won't play that Brighton defence every week. They were shocking.
Couldn’t agree more. Consecutive games against West Ham and Brighton are the main reason I won’t rush to get him in. Both those teams were awful.
I’d rather focus on players with upcoming fixtures against Brighton and West ham.
Palmer is a very special player though.
What defines a ‘key’ pass? And not just 4 chances but ‘big’ chances?! Baffling decision
Ipswich XI: Muric, Tuanzebe, O'Shea, Greaves, Davis, Morsy, Phillips, Ogbene, Hutchinson, Clarke, Delap.

Couple of Quick fire Goals from Watkins, then get Duran on to complete my week😊
Rory’s young fella takes the Villa clean sheet.
Delap(Clarke)
That's fine…Now Villa needs goals!!😬
Nice to lose those cleanie points early eh?
Bloody heck, Villas defence seriously needs to sort itself out. Every bloody game!
Roger’s scores. Watkins assist.
Martinez was very poor for the goal.
Watkins goal from a peach of a Bailey cross.
A key pass is the final pass from a player to a teammate who makes an attempt on goal without scoring.
So Saka created 8 chances in that game with 4 of them being big chances. Not baffling at all he was unbelievable in that game.
MUN: Onana, Mazraoui, de Ligt, Martinez, Dalot, Ugarte, Mainoo, Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford, Zirkzee
