Seems like you're overlooking DCL and Vardy. Both are on pens and have great fixtures for a while with no Europe, seems like a no-brainer to get an expensive midfield.
I'm torn between Haaland and Salah captaincy too. Lets see what happens in the Champions League, I'm leaning towards Salah at the moment. Great video as always :)
Hey Holly I went in with the strategy this season to split the game weeks into blocks of 6 weeks and resist temptation of needless transfers thus by week 6, 12, 18 etc I would have 5 free transfers up my sleeve each time. My defenders are in need of an overhaul but will continue to resist until game week 6. So far my mids and forwards are holding their own at the moment.
Hi Holly, should I wilcard now or hold out for game week 6 when the fixtures swing. My current team, Flekken, Henderson, Quansah, Hall, TAA, Pedro Porro, Barco, Salah, Eze, Bruno F, Rogers, Smith Rowe, Haaland, J Pedro and Wissa. Great content by the way.
I have Joao Pedro .. if he wasn’t fit to play for GW5 my first sub is Madueke do i play him and role a transfer to have 3 fts for GW6 or do i transfer pedro for someone else ?! And who that player will be ?
Hi Holly, should I get rid of Eze this week? And if I do, who is a good replacement for game week 5? By the way, I scored 55 pts with Haaland captain and I had Muric in goal as well and got green arrows 😊
42 points. I was hoping nearer the 100. If i didn't wildcard last week i would be tempted to do it again! Salah went from undroppable to...oh my goodness. Captain as well
Hey Holly, loving the new format! I’ve got 1FT this week with a few headaches in the squad, including Joao Pedro and Muniz, and Winks as first sub. Who is a priority sell and who should I get as a forward replacement (potential long term)? Have 1.5 ITB but hoping to upgrade Rogers at some point…not yet committed to wildcarding wk 6
Hello Holly. I have 2FT. In gw6 I'll have 3FT. My current thought process is to do Watkins, Palmer and TAA to Haaland, McNiel/Semenyo,Gabriel in Gw6 for free. Or should I still avoid getting Haaland and hope that other premiums can outperform him in long term?
Last week was probably the worst, did Saka to Salah FT and then a hit for Armstrong to Jao Pedro who did not even get on the team sheet. Ended up getting just 37 points after the 4 deduction
Thanks Holly. Your content is elite: Thanks for the Mid-week games reminder. Press Conferences, Deadline Stream and much more. We get insights, knowledge and always with a smile. 😃
I currently have Joao Pedro who is flagged & at moment he is on my Substitutes Bench would you keep him on the Substitutes bench at the moment or put him in the starting 11 Holly Shand
67 pts, up to 520k Transfer options: 1. Isak to watkins or 2. Gordon to mbuemo or 3. B. Johnson to Robertson or porro (Have 1.8mil ITB) What do you reckon Holly?
I got 73! Huge green arrow even with Muniz, Pedro and Gvardiol in my starting 11! 220k now. Eyeing up Muniz to Watkins this week but definitely waiting until the weekend
After Arsenal's performance against Spurs I would be very worried that Haaland does not get the chances in the game that he has had in previous games. Saliba and Gabriel were immense and can see Arsenal setting up in the same way with a stubborn block of 4-4-2 with Saka and Martinelli doubling up with fullbacks. Genuinely see either a 0-0 or 1-0 either way, but do not think there will be more than 1 goal thats for sure.
Hi Holly, 2 FTs and £1.4m itb. Unsure of what to do, probably wildcarding in 6. Henderson, Saliba, TAA, Dunk, Saka, Eze, Jota, Rogers, ESR, Haaland, Isak. Bench: Valdimarsson, Armstrong, Robinson, Johnson. Appreciate some transfer advice, thanks!
On wildcard for gw5 my team is raya valdimarsson Trent Robinson greaves aina konsa eze mbuemo salah Roger’s semenyo haaland Solanke and Pedro with 0.6 itb I want to get Watkins for Solanke should I downgrade one of my players if I should who? Or should I stick with Solanke and 0.6 itb?
I pretty sure remember that you captained Salah in deadline day stream 4. Thank God i'm wrong and you captained Haaland. But in my opinion, many of the template picks failed and differentials were the ones which made it out. So it is a good week to have a bad week.
Away from fantasy I really like u from Algeria And thank u for all your advice Gameweek 5 i will not make a transfer my team pope gk and porro muñoz mazraoui or bednarek in defence salah palmer eze mentah hudson odoi as midfielders halland muniz
Hey holly, my team for gw5 Gk: Raya flekken Mid: Mitoma saka eze smith row and and onana St: Haaland Watkins Dcl Any suggestions or changes you would make
Hi Holly! Currently ranked in the top 3k. My team: Verbruggen, Trent, Gabriel, Gvardiol, Salah(C), Jota, Minteh, ESR, Rogers, Haaland, Havertz, with Flekken, Harwood-Bellis, Cannon, and Barco on the bench. I have 0.4m in the bank and 2FT. I really like DCL and want to bring him in, the entry point seems great with LEI (A), to do so I need 1m which i could get by selling Gvardiol but I won't because i want to hold him as people sell, cause i think when City's fixtures turn he'll smash it. The other option is Minteh to a 4.5m mid to upgrade Cannon straight to DCL. What are your thoughts and any suggestions ?? Also, for Gameweek 5, who would you start between Gabriel and Harwood-Bellis ?
Despite Everton bottling games and Ipswich is a promoted team they have a good run of fixture, do you think both team can be considered as an option for next few games?
I have Gusto injured and I'm considering bringing in Lucas Digne because Aston Villa have great fixtures and the swap would give me an extra 0.5 in the bank, I'd like to know your thoughts on this. Also, I have great concerns over Rico Lewis getting minutes now that Walker is fit what do you think?
My team is raya fabianski gabriel robertson konsa cresswell lima esr rogers salah palmer eze haaland pedro stewart i have a transfer in hand should i roll out a transfer this week and bring in saka mbuemo or saka wissa for palmer eze or palmer pedro respectively for gw 6 ? i have 0.3 itb got 69 points this week 184k overall
Brave to give the armband to Haaland even wity Salah in the team. I don't have Salah but have Palmer, Son and Haaland. Between Palmer and Son who is the better Captaincy material this GW ?
Salah will have a point to prove so will def be captaining him ahead of Haaland who's up against the best defence in Europe. Last 2 times, the Ars defence had him in his pocket
Low week for myself too but still top of my work league 🎉 Gabriel and Saka saved me. A bit of a dilemma.. Martinez Trent, Robertson, Gabriel, hardwood, faes Saka, Salah, eze, Palmer, Rogers Isak, j Pedro, Stewart Looking for a way to squeeze Watkins in.. any thoughts?
@@HollyShand I already wildcard in week 3 🫠 had barco, injured solanke, Bruno firing blanks so wild card used up. May think to roll my transfers until game 6 then and transfer into Haaland. So it's isak for Watkins or hold and roll transfers for Haaland.
Holly I’ve got Henderson Gabriel Gvardiol Robinson Eze Rogers Salah Saka Haaland joao pedro Muniz Hall winks Johnson I’m 100% wildcarding GW6 🤣 1 FT this week…. Anyone who stands out to you to bring in for a punt? I was thinking either DCL for Muniz or a defender for Gvardiol.. what do you think 😊
Really thought about WC in wk4 but held off (planning for wk6) and hit 70pts (up to 136k now!, but not quite in top 1k in your league) Plans for wk5 were to sell Saka and Isak for Salah and Vardy. With the two being injured, it looks like it was meant to be, lol! Salah captain? Raya Konsa, AA, Porro ESR, Rogers, Salah, Jota, J Murphy Mateta, Vardy. Bench - Hall, Robinson, HAALAND!!!!! Is this insane????????? Swap for Murphy?
is Eze a good trade out now? if hes not on penalties, McNeil seems like a good cheap option with so far good underlying stats, and incredible fixtures ahead. this also frees up 1.5m so I could do hardwood-Bellis to Pedro Porro or another 5.5 defender.
Hi, im thinking to get Calvert-lewin in for Muniz thoughts? Is palace assets something to worry about in the future due to them underperforming? and is Isak's injury bad?
Im in top 8k right now and this is what am planning for the next three gw's: TAA to Robertson or saliba and then upgrade jebbison to Calvert Lewin and i stil have 0,5 in the bank BUT im considering to sell faes and buy Aina with that money This is my team: Sanchez, TAA, Robinson, konsa, van de ven, faes, Salah, palmer, Mbeumo, ESR, Rogers, haaland, Vardy, jebbison ANY THOUGHTS?
Maaaaaybe but for me its MUST have a haaland, Salah, and saka/palmer and am ok with my midfielders ESR is good for his money and Rogers will be a aston villa attacker with good fixture and i wll definitely Bench him for C lewin And TAA (7mill) with no bonus, with no assist if he don't deliver gw 5 HOLLY 7 mill are a lot trust me
Oh Holly I don’t want to talk about it(but I will I guess)I’m pretty much a 1 man team this time it was Watkins and my Arsenal players that saved me. I’m just gonna have to come back stronger because My 43 points is a huge red arrow.
Shocker week also 47 pts no we don't have the same team 😆 Was hoping to wc6 but now need to wait on Pedro and Isak my have to play a 4-5-1. The Gabriel out to Robertson did me.
I had a 71 point GW 4. So lucky, definitely didn't plan it. WC in GW 3 and didn't have Salah. I admit it was only my ARS players, Brighton def.and Watkins, Haaland team that clicked. Should I hold on to Jota GW 5 ? Or get Mbeumo in early. Depending on midweek injuries not to happen.Txs Holly.
Nottingham Forest completely changed the game game week. Not having Saka was sad. What if he does well g against city? I am defo going to need to wildcard before game week 6
I got 53 points because I had mazaroiu onana(GK),then Watkins and saka. I benched smith Rowe so painful 😢. I'm thinking of selling isak for wissa since Brentford has a turn of good fixtures what do you think ??. I also made a mistake of no5 captaining my highest scoring player 😢
@@HollyShandI captained salah last week but I want to captain Watkins against wolves who have been bad defensively. I already made a transfer of gvardiol to konate so I can double up on Liverpool defense with Robertson. I also have 1.0m in bank with 2 free transfer left
The Next 10 fixtures for Everton look finally great ( 8 greens and 2 greys ), I am thinking of going now for Dominic Calvert-Lewin. What do you thimk ?
60 points after wildcarding, up to 168K (for what it's worth at this stage), but this feels very much like GW1 where I dodged one issue but ended up with two other issues.This week I dodged Lewis but have Pedro and more worryingly Wissa. Not sure what to do if Wissa is out long term I’ve got 2xFTs but I can’t get to anyone on my watchlist without downgrading someone with a good fixture. The plan was swap my Liverpool triple up to an Arsenal one (already have Raya) in GW6. I think I’ll stick to that, roll my transfer and just accept any price drops. The FPL gods this season seem particularly capricious always seems to be an issue somewhere in my team!
Thoughts on DCL as Muniz replacement and taking a -4 for another move? I think i may keep my wc until gw8 because i allready have Saka and Saliba in my team...
Hi Holly. what a gameweek that was eh? I managed a 54 point score so not too bad, my planned transfers are Palmer to Saka and Isak to Solanke , I know Saka is flagged but he rarely misses a game, I need to try and gain ground in my mini league and hope my proposed transfers will do this for me, what do you think? x
@@HollyShand A total of 6 points in 4 matches just isn't good enough for a 5M GK who has had a reasonable fixtures and the rest of my squad is sound and doesn't need any major surgery
Hello Holly I'm backing Haaland to score against Arsenal so he is still my gw5 captain and also Arsenal will only have one training session to prepare for City's game so it makes me more tempted to captain Haaland
I have 4 free transfers this week I don't know I'm thinking of still rolling and going against Salah and also my plan is GW6 WC but let's see and I scored 59 points this week
Is it crazy to take havertz out maybe swap to DCL then next week swapping Palmer to Saka might seem a waste but Havertz gets no return against city and I think Saka outscores Palmer
Played wild card, not a great week,lewis 45 mins,mazraoui 45 mins, Diaz off early, wissa flagged,pedro flagged,mazraoui flagged, on top off that I got rid of sanches,gabrielle, saka, dissapointed eze no pen.
That's what I should have done last week, but like a lot of people, thought arsenal weeks 4 and 5 did not look good, fortunately,Gordon and Isaacs did not wipe me out, I do like your logic and sensible approach,keep up the fantastic work ❤
Since the season started l have been putting out fires and the first week l want to roll then wissa is out😢so Holly should l bring calvert lewin in for wissa or just roll and play minteh
Why not look at Domonic Calvert-Lewendowski? Looked great vs Villa and could have easily had 3, faces Liecester away, then Palace at home who are both conceding, Newcastle then Ipswich, Fulham, Southampton and a bargain at $5.9mil
@@HollyShand I reckon he's worth the risk, if he stays fit he can easily outscore wood, isaak (also very injury prone), Pedro... Jota is also very injury prone... I think most peoples reluctance is they dont trust everton and rightly so but the attack has been ok and everything goes through him... Personally, i'm looking to upgrade Pedro to DCL to run with Ollie and Erling. need to sell Palmer for Saka to fund though.
Now wissa out ,he's a sell,I have pedro and harland and 1.5 in the bank, I know when I last messaged was considering watkins but it also meant replacing eze,mbuema, or Diaz, other idea could bring in havitz 1 week early, I am taking your advice and waiting till after mid-week games, unless pedro sold on mass, many thanks for previous advice ❤

Seems like you're overlooking DCL and Vardy. Both are on pens and have great fixtures for a while with no Europe, seems like a no-brainer to get an expensive midfield.
That’s true, I just don’t trust their fitness!
The only content creator who reminds us of midweek fixtures. Thanks a lot!!!
No worries, it's my thing!
I'm torn between Haaland and Salah captaincy too. Lets see what happens in the Champions League, I'm leaning towards Salah at the moment. Great video as always :)
Thank you!
Haaland has been completely shut down by gabriel and saliba every time he plays arsenal.
@@hayden-pk3vxevery dig about City players are always myths. He scored in the treble season at the Emirates with both Gabby and Saliba..lol

Hold out until gw6
Thanks Holly. And thanks for the info on the mid week fixtures.
I have Joao Pedro .. if he wasn’t fit to play for GW5 my first sub is Madueke do i play him and role a transfer to have 3 fts for GW6 or do i transfer pedro for someone else ?! And who that player will be ?
I would roll, Joao Pedro likely only a short term thing
Hey Holly, always love your content!
Would you bench Rogers or ESR for GW5? Thanks!
ESR
Hi Holly, should I get rid of Eze this week? And if I do, who is a good replacement for game week 5? By the way, I scored 55 pts with Haaland captain and I had Muric in goal as well and got green arrows 😊
I would keep Eze, still a good pick. Nice result!
@@HollyShand thanks Holly, I'll hold onto Eze.
Good luck!
Should I wildcard to this team? Henderson, Lewis, Robinson, Davis, Bowen, Salah, Sterling, Palmer, Smith-rowe, Haaland, Welbeck and Delap
No Lewis is too risky on wildcard and Welbeck not a long term option
@@HollyShandhow about dunk for Lewis and Pedro For Welbeck
42 points. I was hoping nearer the 100. If i didn't wildcard last week i would be tempted to do it again! Salah went from undroppable to...oh my goodness. Captain as well
I know, what a week but the wildcard can save you
Onana Mazraoui And Tuanzebe got me clean sheet
Nice calls there with United defenders

I think Haaland from GW6 onwards is a must
Lovely vid Holly! if wissa's out injured what are the best replacements for 6.1m and less? or should i just play semenyo and roll?
Would play Semenyo and roll if there's a chance Wissa is fit for those fixtures GW6 onwards

No worries, good luck!
57 points thought it would be a train wreck but all green arrows. Went from 635k to 537K so very happy with that.
Very nice Keith!
Last week was probably the worst, did Saka to Salah FT and then a hit for Armstrong to Jao Pedro who did not even get on the team sheet. Ended up getting just 37 points after the 4 deduction

Thoughts on who to cap ? Palmer, Haaland, D Jota

I think roll before wildcard, you will have two coming out of it then!
@@HollyShand I would but not confident Pedro or Muniz will start at the weekend ? Jimenez scored after starting on the weekend
Really thought about WC in wk4 but held off (planning for wk6) and hit 70pts (up to 136k now!, but not quite in top 1k in your league) Plans for wk5 were to sell Saka and Isak for Salah and Vardy. With the two being injured, it looks like it was meant to be, lol! Salah captain?
Raya
Konsa, AA, Porro
ESR, Rogers, Salah, Jota, J Murphy
Mateta, Vardy.
Bench - Hall, Robinson, HAALAND!!!!! Is this insane????????? Swap for Murphy?
Wow the stars have aligned and yes that is insane, you have to play Haaland!
Holly had to go early so out with Isak and in with Watkins, just keeping fingers crossed he comes through for the weekend!
Can't argue with that move!
Still can't believe the one week I don't captain haaland and brought in salah that week just for him to get 2 points :/
Ouch that’s pain
I got 47 points as well. Lowest week for me so far
Feels rubbish having a bad gameweek... onwards and upwards though! Plans for this week?
@@HollyShand selling Rico lewis. Owning him feels like too much of a risk now

is Eze a good trade out now? if hes not on penalties, McNeil seems like a good cheap option with so far good underlying stats, and incredible fixtures ahead. this also frees up 1.5m so I could do hardwood-Bellis to Pedro Porro or another 5.5 defender.
Still think Eze will do well! Stick
Hi Holly, curious to hear whether you think Rogers or Onana from Ashton Villa is a better pick at 5.1 million?
Rogers - been unlucky not to deliver so far!
57 points but red arrow down to 402 OR Aina 8pts on the bench mocking my double Liverpool defence.
Bench points are always pain!

That move is fine. Not worried about palace personally and Isak should be fine
Great video Holly Hi what do you think of Duran for Muniz
Just his minutes long term makes me not want to consider
Im in top 8k right now and this is what am planning for the next three gw's:
TAA to Robertson or saliba and then upgrade jebbison to Calvert Lewin and i stil have 0,5 in the bank BUT im considering to sell faes and buy Aina with that money
This is my team:
Sanchez, TAA, Robinson, konsa, van de ven, faes, Salah, palmer, Mbeumo, ESR, Rogers, haaland, Vardy, jebbison
ANY THOUGHTS?
What a start! Trent can't go anywhere... can you use Palmer as the cash cow?
Maaaaaybe but for me its MUST have a haaland, Salah, and saka/palmer and am ok with my midfielders ESR is good for his money and Rogers will be a aston villa attacker with good fixture and i wll definitely Bench him for C lewin
And TAA (7mill) with no bonus, with no assist if he don't deliver gw 5 HOLLY 7 mill are a lot trust me
Yes I had a look around wildcard today and couldn’t fit Trent in either! 😢
I’ve had an absolute shocker and played my wildcard 1 week earlier than planned, who should I select now that I’m here..? Must haves?
Arsenal, Haaland, Watkins
Oh Holly I don’t want to talk about it(but I will I guess)I’m pretty much a 1 man team this time it was Watkins and my Arsenal players that saved me. I’m just gonna have to come back stronger because My 43 points is a huge red arrow.
Woah. No haaland then? Plans to get?
Probably in my game week 7 wildcard
Interesting!
Shocker week also 47 pts no we don't have the same team 😆
Was hoping to wc6 but now need to wait on Pedro and Isak my have to play a 4-5-1. The Gabriel out to Robertson did me.
Ha glad you haven't copied! That is tough but right decision still you would say...
I had a 71 point GW 4. So lucky, definitely didn't plan it. WC in GW 3 and didn't have Salah. I admit it was only my ARS players, Brighton def.and Watkins, Haaland team that clicked. Should I hold on to Jota GW 5 ? Or get Mbeumo in early. Depending on midweek injuries not to happen.Txs Holly.
I think one more week for Jota and then switch to Mbeumo
@HollyShand Thanks Holly.
Nottingham Forest completely changed the game game week. Not having Saka was sad. What if he does well g
against city? I am defo going to need to wildcard before game week 6
He is an injury doubt so maybe we can get away with not owning...
Similar issues for me Muniz, Isak, Mazroui. Do I wild card early? Can’t afford Wood.
Wood is 6.1, you can make the swap, but ride it out for a week
I got 53 points because I had mazaroiu onana(GK),then Watkins and saka. I benched smith Rowe so painful 😢.
I'm thinking of selling isak for wissa since Brentford has a turn of good fixtures what do you think ??. I also made a mistake of no5 captaining my highest scoring player 😢
Some big points there! Just check on Wissa fixture as he was subbed off with an injury last weekend...
@@HollyShandI captained salah last week but I want to captain Watkins against wolves who have been bad defensively. I already made a transfer of gvardiol to konate so I can double up on Liverpool defense with Robertson. I also have 1.0m in bank with 2 free transfer left
Wissa out for a couple of months I’ve heard
Thnx holly great content as always..hoping for a great game week 5..red arrow for me but still at 600k
That's still a great start, stick with it
is joao pedro still injured?, and is he available in gw5
Brighton play in the cup on Wednesday so we should get some news today
The Next 10 fixtures for Everton look finally great ( 8 greens and 2 greys ), I am thinking of going now for Dominic Calvert-Lewin. What do you thimk ?
Yes I like it... just pray he stays fit! What about Wood & Nketiah?
@@HollyShand Wood is already in my team 🙂 and CRY fixtures are not as good as EVE
Ah fair then
60 points after wildcarding, up to 168K (for what it's worth at this stage), but this feels very much like GW1 where I dodged one issue but ended up with two other issues.This week I dodged Lewis but have Pedro and more worryingly Wissa.
Not sure what to do if Wissa is out long term I’ve got 2xFTs but I can’t get to anyone on my watchlist without downgrading someone with a good fixture. The plan was swap my Liverpool triple up to an Arsenal one (already have Raya) in GW6. I think I’ll stick to that, roll my transfer and just accept any price drops. The FPL gods this season seem particularly capricious always seems to be an issue somewhere in my team!
I think both could be ok yet... try and be patient for now, solid plan in motion!
Thoughts on DCL as Muniz replacement and taking a -4 for another move? I think i may keep my wc until gw8 because i allready have Saka and Saliba in my team...
I don’t hate it, we need him to stay fit but would avoid the hit if you can
I had a mare I made Saka to Salah and Isak to Pedro. Not to mention I didn't captain Haaland
Ouch
@HollyShand my plan is to wait until Friday press conferences then see who's fit and maybe wildcard GW6 like a lot of people are doing
Thoughts on going Isak to Watkins? I have enough in the bank and my other fwds are Haaland and Havertz.
Yes that's the optimal front line now
3 free transfers, thinking Isak to Solanke, Gvardiol to Moreno and Saka to Salah. Leaves enough ITB to get to Mbeumo next week. Thoughts?
Yes they sound ok but I do think Saka has legs long term
@@HollyShand thank you for the response. I plan to bring saka back in Gw 7 on wildcard if he’s fit
Let’s hope he’s fit!
Hi Holly. what a gameweek that was eh? I managed a 54 point score so not too bad, my planned transfers are Palmer to Saka and Isak to Solanke , I know Saka is flagged but he rarely misses a game, I need to try and gain ground in my mini league and hope my proposed transfers will do this for me, what do you think? x
He has a little injury Saka, so don't jump in with both feet just yet!
@@HollyShand Sage advice as always Holly, thank you x
Thanks for tuning in Mike!
Hey holly. Best gvardiol replacement I’ve got 5.4m. I’m probably gonna WC gw6 so I need a punt - maybe Romero or digne?
Can you just hold Gvardiol if on wildcard this week and bank the transfer?
@@HollyShand I need the funds for salah this week
Fair, but is Salah a must have?
Is it worth -4 to bring salah and captain him or captain haaland and go for 1 sub Son for saka
Just stick with Haaland
Took -12 got 56 points so 44 gd week for the hit as everyone struggled had sanchez gabriel haaland nd watkins captained salah
-12 is bold! Some nice returns though, captain Haaland all the way!
@@HollyShand gonna captain salah gw5 saliba has haaland in his pocket ain't scored in 4 attemps against saliba
Really? I thought he had a good record against Arsenal
@@HollyShand na last season never scores once nd I don't think he has last 5games we played all comps including fa Cup community shield Premier league
best time to use wc after gw6 i will have 2 arsenal and 3 liverpool mbuemo haaland
GW8
Just sold Martinez and brought in Raya. Took long to make the decision but it's not too late
Woah! A goalkeeper transfer before wildcard?
@@HollyShand A total of 6 points in 4 matches just isn't good enough for a 5M GK who has had a reasonable fixtures and the rest of my squad is sound and doesn't need any major surgery
Ah ok you’re good then
Hello Holly
I'm backing Haaland to score against Arsenal so he is still my gw5 captain and also Arsenal will only have one training session to prepare for City's game so it makes me more tempted to captain Haaland
Tempting stuff! I agree with the better turnaround time
I have 4 free transfers this week I don't know I'm thinking of still rolling and going against Salah and also my plan is GW6 WC but let's see and I scored 59 points this week
I think we can maybe get away without Salah - strong position to be in!
Is it crazy to take havertz out maybe swap to DCL then next week swapping Palmer to Saka might seem a waste but Havertz gets no return against city and I think Saka outscores Palmer
I like Havertz as a long term hold and Saka current fitness record is a concern
Played wild card, not a great week,lewis 45 mins,mazraoui 45 mins, Diaz off early, wissa flagged,pedro flagged,mazraoui flagged, on top off that I got rid of sanches,gabrielle, saka, dissapointed eze no pen.
What a week! It could all turn next week mind so try to be patient…
That's what I should have done last week, but like a lot of people, thought arsenal weeks 4 and 5 did not look good, fortunately,Gordon and Isaacs did not wipe me out, I do like your logic and sensible approach,keep up the fantastic work ❤
Thanks for watching!
Any news about Wissa? I'm desperate to beat this eventual Isak price drop but I'm not even so sure about Wissa's availability
Unlikely we get news before end of the week
I benched Gabriel last minute for Porro, thinking the content creators must know more than I do.
Ha I would have done the same!
Since the season started l have been putting out fires and the first week l want to roll then wissa is out😢so Holly should l bring calvert lewin in for wissa or just roll and play minteh
Roll and play minteh
Why not look at Domonic Calvert-Lewendowski? Looked great vs Villa and could have easily had 3, faces Liecester away, then Palace at home who are both conceding, Newcastle then Ipswich, Fulham, Southampton and a bargain at $5.9mil
Don’t trust him
@@HollyShand I reckon he's worth the risk, if he stays fit he can easily outscore wood, isaak (also very injury prone), Pedro... Jota is also very injury prone... I think most peoples reluctance is they dont trust everton and rightly so but the attack has been ok and everything goes through him... Personally, i'm looking to upgrade Pedro to DCL to run with Ollie and Erling. need to sell Palmer for Saka to fund though.
The plan for me is to find a way to get Mbeumo and Gabriel for GW 6 without wildcard available
Roll this week for max flexibility if you can
Should I sell muniz or play Robinson I am wildcarding next week 100%
Now wissa out ,he's a sell,I have pedro and harland and 1.5 in the bank, I know when I last messaged was considering watkins but it also meant replacing eze,mbuema, or Diaz, other idea could bring in havitz 1 week early, I am taking your advice and waiting till after mid-week games, unless pedro sold on mass, many thanks for previous advice ❤
I still think Watkins
Another green arrow for me 🎉
Already played my Wildcard so the next 2 weeks will be tough
You are probably in better shape than most of us... enjoy the ride! Plans for this week?
@@HollyShand Would like to roll but will wait until the end of the week in case of any flagged players
Yes a lot could change in the next week!
Saka to Salah, Isaak to DCL for free.... plan to wildcard in 6/7. DCL or Vardy for GW5 Punt?
It’s hard to use transfers on luxury moves just a week out to wildcard - not enough time for them to pay off Vs rolling
I have 3 free transfers...thinking Muniz for Vardy and Jota for Diaz and Palmer for Salah...thoughts ???
What are your thoughts on Jhon Duran?
Let’s see how the UCL shakes out
If wissa missing,replace eze with calum Hudson odoi,and watkins if pedro out do the same but with Isaacs,
I like Watkins move but would keep Eze
I think if you're above 50 points you probably had some non template picks and fair play.
Yes I agree!
You deserve 10000 likes
Thank you
Going against Haaland is scary 😅. I got 65 this week another green arrow
Wow, surprised you are surviving with no Haaland! Plans to get him?
72 pts for me Gabriel and haaland saved the day
Wow what a result! Rank?
@HollyShand top 300,000
Epic! Plans for this week?
Got 60P this GW. Going into GW 5 with 1 free transfer and 1.7 in bank
Not a bad place to be, plans?
@@HollyShand, maybe just roll this week. Most likely change Eze for Mbeumo and Henderson for a premium GK like Raya. But also thinking about WC GW6
Nice one!
Hi holly I replied to your comment about holding gvardiol through the WC but I have to sell him to fund salah.
That is ok, but not sure we need Salah long term?
@@HollyShandit’s just for this gameweek
Hmm 🤔 can you captain Haaland?
I got 50 points but benched Raya, Gabriel and Wissa so lost out on an extra 31 points 😂
Should we play Gabriel vs MCI over Konsa, Holly? I say no, with Gabriel first sub.
Great content as usual. 👏🏻👏🏻
I transfer out muniz and get joao pedro
Nice move
WC GW5 here Raya + Robertson or Flekken + TAA?
You getting me tempted... Flekken & Trent
28 points this week, I seem to be getting worse each week
Ha sorry
Keep or sell Jota for GW5?
Keep for one more week!
