Love Zophar and his BDE. He's the kind of guy that could order a Big Mac at Burger King and a whopper from Mac Donalds. When he drives and the police stop him, he let's them off with a warning. FPL GOAT
I was pleasantly surprised to see my WC team in there - the last one (bench depth draft). Although I’ve overcome the Semenyo benching headache by sticking with ESR who is benchable this week and seems to cover DCL/Rogers bad fixtures a bit better 👍
Southampton need goals and Dibling has been a solid player for them in the past couple matches. I think Dibling is capable of scoring one goal against either Leicester(h) or Everton(h) tbh.
Aren't there too many risky picks here that are not nailed? Diaz, Lewis likely to get rotated in the future and we don't even know how many mins Carvalho could get. Should consider adding a couple nailed options there
But nailed assets like Eze, Bruno, Bowen, and Solanke (only 1 return in 5 games) haven't performed in the first 5 GWs despite data heavily backing their performances thus far. So, in my opinion, I don't think a few risky rotation picks are much worse than going with nailed-on options.
@ankitrudrachatterjee I am not sold on Bruno either because of his price and Solanke was injured. Eze, however, is a consideration. I imagine a scenario where 1-2 of these rotation risk players do not play and you don't even have a playing 11. I would rather have Eze in that scenario where he is atleast getting tons of chances and based on last season's history could be capable of putting them away. If this was my team, I'd change Carvalho to Semeno/ESR to cover for Diaz rotation
I think you covered all the options except for no Trent. Frees so much money and you can even have Watkins+Solanke/Jackson/Havertz up top. Any thoughts on this? Do you expect Liverpools lucky cleans to continue? Or you think TAA will have many attacking returns even in more difficult games?
No one can actually know the answers to those questions. Every single person will say trent is absolutely essential in wc but no one is essential except haaland. You got to do whats best for your overall team. Personally gone for Watkins Solanke Lewis with that extra money.
Semenyo short term otherwise Rogers and Dibling works totally fine. Look at gw 6,7,9 for Rogers and gw 8,10,11 for Dibling. This allows you to have L.Diaz, Saka, Mbeumo, Haaland, Watkins, DCL/Wood and keep TAA and Gabriel and Raya.
Not many cheap midfielders worth having among those top 8 scoring teams though apart from Rogers, so I guess at least some of us will have to look a bit further down that list.
Thanks a lot Zoph!!! Great content as usual. 🫡 What about Pras and LR's latest WC6 teams though? If you put those at the end of the content, it feels like a sweet, sweet dessert and everyone will stick around till the end 😉

6:54 "we all like instant gratification whether we like it or not." Yeah, the FPL Wire loves Wood. 😂
I may try and come to the Bodø Beer Festival - the location is brilliant - At least there is an airport there!..x

What’s the “noise” around Semenyo you’re talking about?
Zophar is my GOAT

you are so underrated sir!

Thoughts on Duran instead of Watkins please
Don’t lol

Great video but the real question is which draft does Frank prefer?
He's a barko fan ;)
Semenyo/Carvalho/McNeil/ESR, whom to pick?

@@sickemboy9352 Thanks for the information :)
6:51 Spoken like a proud Muniz owner Zoph, the luck will come.
great team
that no raya draft is spicy

Diaz is a big decision on WC6. Good luck, Zoph.
Carvalho will probably play for Brentford, but he is still finding his feet in the team. Didn’t really pass the eye test v. Spurs and limited minutes.
yep its a bit of a shot in the dark. If Raya is fit I might go for the Dibling + Watkins combo
@@TheFPLWireFantasyPremierLeague Went for Dibling myself. Might actually play him in GW8 😱
Spurs a top side?
