Trippier and Fernandes suspensions have stuffed me. I also own a Crystal Palace defender in Andersen. In my mind City-Palace feels like a 4-0 so I'm forced to play Pinnock who goes up against Watkins who I also own. Frankly in a red mist I've used my free transfer prematurely, swapping Fernandes for Bowen when I really should have waited for more information before pulling the trigger. This is my first season in FPL so im hoping to take some learning from my mistakes!
With only one free, made early transfers of Senesi and Dubravka for Lascelles and Areola. Considering -8 to bring in Solanka for either Haaland or Darwin pending injury info on Haaland. Will then bring in Watkins to captain GW18...followed by rolling in GW19...hopefully anyway
Probably only doing Solanke for Haaland, pending news. Going to stay with Darwin, potentially keeping me to a -4 this week. Would then be -4 next week bringing in Solake and Watkins...assuming no other news.
I would go for TAA.. he does have tough fixtures but most of them are at home and I'll sell haaland for Watkins then sell salah in gw 20 to bring in haaland then after everyone is back from afcon and asian cup I can do a wild card possibly?
My team: Dubravka, Porro, Gabriel, Saliba, Saka, Son, Salah, Palmer, Gordon, Darwin, Alvarez Bench: Watkins, Trippier, Taylor (both suspended) Who to take out for Watkins?
Gordon was hinted by Howe as an injury risk but you never know with Howe. So wait to see what happens tonight but I'd say short term sub out Gordon, long term transfer out Alvarez.
I’ve done Haaland and Mitoma to son and Watkins banking 5.3m I can get Haaland back whenever by downgrading trippier to a 5m defender and doing Alvarez to Haaland
Hear me out, Gusto if fit is a great differential. He's relatively nailed when James is injured, great great fixtures over the next 4, good attacking potential and dirt cheap. I know you've been burnt so much by James but at least consider Gusto
I used to quite like Eddie Howe, but FPL makes that impossible. Pep has always been annoying with his pressers, but Howe and Arteta feel like they'll just flatly lie to us, rather than just hide in vagueness like Pep.
I'm thinking about doing this, which would take me to -8 points this week. I have taken no minuses this season so far though which is the only reason I'm considering it. I think Haaland vs Everton Away isn't an easy fixture so I'm willing to not have him for 3 weeks
@@FootyViews I agree, I’ve also been thinking for about 8 gameweeks that Everton is not a fixture to target whatsoever. For me it’d only be a -4 for Haaland->Solanke and I’m strongly considering it
I'm keeping an eye on Areola, if he is out I am going to swap Kelleher for Neto for a hit, i think its worth the punt, given his form and fixtures as worst case i take a -2 overall. I am wildcarding in 19 so i can make some short term gambles i recon. Any thoughts on whether thats the right GK to target (i have the funds for anyone at this point)
James out for three months. Idk why as an FPL expert you would buy him knowing his injury status. Especially during a fixture conjestion schedule where we need players who are guaranteed to play
I only had 1FT, had only 2 defenders playing. Branthwaite, Taylor & Tripps suspended. Went early on Porro. Waiting wouldn't help, suspension weren't gonna vanish. If I have to take a hit for Haaland, then so be it on Friday.
Love the pod . Martinelli and haland to Watkins and saka or hold Martinelli and go Watkins and solanke in for haaland and archer . Will swap haaland in for Darwin 19/20
@@FPLRaptor every single player banner in the video has the FPL yellow flag graphic under it apart from those with a red flag graphic. It made it look like the entire team was yellow of red flagged and while you were on the defence, I actually had to log in to my FPL as it appeared that Tsimkas and Guehi had yellow flags. Can you really not see how this is confusing?
Raptor 🦖🦖 do we have any info on when DGW would potentially be announced if it was GW21? Wondering what is the latest time these announcements are usually made
In the other video you mentioned Iwobi having the best data for Fulham, but didn't mention he is off to AFCON? Is there a reason for this, is he not going?
I most definitely know that United's dressing room is on a low now after being knocked out of Europe. Without Bruno, maguire and shaw in the team it's going to be a blood bath at anfield. Salah is the most obvious Captain this week or Trent.
Hey Ross! Would you get a -4 for Haaland out to Watkins if on Friday Pep still considers him a serious doubt and get him back gw20 if he is fit? I mean I think of bringing him back at gw20 because I suppose Watkins can outscore him in gw17-19 fixture run even with double digit difference (Andersen->Porro was my free transfer). Then at gw20 I will get him back for free selling Mubama and getting 3-4-3 formation with Solanke Watkins Haaland in front for Afcon and Asian cup.
I could be up shit creek this week....rumors of dubravka n Gordon out, haaland out Johnstone out,Taylor suspended,n laschelles looks like he's bin struggling abit for a few games. Can see a few hits coming this week 🤦♂️
Tempted to keep him but I think he lost his place...tomorrow's game will say a lot, if he plays 90 he aint playing Brentford...also good fixture at 18 for him
Hey Ross, thank you for the vid❤! Do you think it's worth to do 👉🏻Livramento➡Branthwaite & Saliba➡Trippier👈🏻 in GW18? This will exhaust all my $1.4m in the bank though. I'm afraid it will cause trouble in the sense that I don't have enough money to buy back Son & Salah when they are back from national duties Or should I just do Saliba -> Porro? I also got Colwill, Gabriel, Taylor. Thanks !
I would say Palmer because Chelsea don't have any route to goal besides Palmer doing something... Villa are better than Chelsea but it is difficult to predict whose starting and how many minutes will be played...
News this morning seems to suggest Dubravka has been struggling with illness as opposed to an injury, so probably nothing to worry about there! 🙏🏼
I honestly dk what to do if Dubravka & Areola are both out. Have zero budget to play around with. 😅
Ross please give us a wildcard team
I have two Keepers out also Areola and Sanchez any news on there injuries 🤦🏻♂️
Never mind that 2 points

Great video!
If you were to use the Wildcard this week, who would you choose?
Aint seen that many warning lights since my boy had a 2003 BMW X3 that was on its way out. Dashboard was lit up like an airplane cockpit.
I would go for TAA.. he does have tough fixtures but most of them are at home and I'll sell haaland for Watkins then sell salah in gw 20 to bring in haaland then after everyone is back from afcon and asian cup I can do a wild card possibly?
Notification gang, lovely stuff Ross
Who to bench? Darwin, Watkins, Gordon or Palmer?
My team: Dubravka, Porro, Gabriel, Saliba, Saka, Son, Salah, Palmer, Gordon, Darwin, Alvarez
Bench: Watkins, Trippier, Taylor (both suspended)
Who to take out for Watkins?
“Who to take out for Watkins?”
You have listed Watkins in your team?
🤷♂️
Watkins is on the bench ..he meant who to bench in order to play watkins @@davebaz8142
Gordon was hinted by Howe as an injury risk but you never know with Howe. So wait to see what happens tonight but I'd say short term sub out Gordon, long term transfer out Alvarez.
I am sooo tempted to Captain Trent .🤔
Do it
I was going to do it forgot to and he was my vice capt. No salah points 😢

100% Bench Boost that!

Us FPL players had a part to play in these kind of things. Managers know about this game and how serious people are about it, so they lie
If you owned Haaland, would you transfer out for Solanke for a 2/3 week punt?
I'm thinking about doing this, which would take me to -8 points this week. I have taken no minuses this season so far though which is the only reason I'm considering it. I think Haaland vs Everton Away isn't an easy fixture so I'm willing to not have him for 3 weeks

Vicario has favourable fixtures, so does ederson
I won’t sell Haaland this week as I have done my one free to fix a f/up but I will in gm18 but it will be an out and straight back in…
Would you use your wildcard now as opposed to a planned GW19 wildcard? Or would you wait for more Haaland news ?
If you waited this long you might aswell just hold off man
@@raf7305Thanks mate. Wanted to ask the same question
I'm going now because a lot of the players i want are already up in price plus i got 3 players flagged. Do what fits your team mate, gl!
this haaland out or in will definitely go down to the deadline for me to make the transfer now
Which 3 would you start out Lascelles, Tsimikas, Saliba and Porro?
James out for three months. Idk why as an FPL expert you would buy him knowing his injury status. Especially during a fixture conjestion schedule where we need players who are guaranteed to play
Especially when there are better alternatives at the same price range like Porro Saliba etc

Exactly. Did the same. Injuries are one thing, suspensions will stay no matter what.
I have the same front 8 as you except I have Sterling instead of Martinelli. Who do you bench? Watkins with Brentford away?
Probably Watkins yeah, unless Darwin starts tonight
Thoughts on bringing in Trent instead of Porro?
Love the pod . Martinelli and haland to Watkins and saka or hold Martinelli and go Watkins and solanke in for haaland and archer . Will swap haaland in for Darwin 19/20

Choose two of Palmer, Foden or Watkins this game week?
Ross who do you think i should start darwin or Gordon?
Ive done 20 points in hits in recent weeks taking out flagged players. Currently have five flags. This is not a fun game ATM
In the other video you mentioned Iwobi having the best data for Fulham, but didn't mention he is off to AFCON? Is there a reason for this, is he not going?
Just missed him off the list!
I most definitely know that United's dressing room is on a low now after being knocked out of Europe. Without Bruno, maguire and shaw in the team it's going to be a blood bath at anfield. Salah is the most obvious Captain this week or Trent.
Should i sell Isak or Alavarez for Solanke?

Can see a few hits coming this week 🤦♂️
Thanks Ross.
Would you bench Darwin or Gordon?
I'm in same boat ...I'm united fan so want to play Gordon but united are fragile
Assuming no change on Haaland, bring in Solanke and captain him?
Would you start Darwin ahead of Haaland this GW?
Start Palmer or Gordon?
can i triple captain salah vs. man u
ross do you reckon cash would start this weekend?

I have the same defense but i still have my wildcard do i activate it now or do it in GW18
I'd probably just go now
Curious about zinchenko, what’s the vibe there cause he’s very attacking
He’s just not completely nailed, especially over this busy period
Do you think Kabore will start this GW?
What about Udogie. He is basically a AM

When GW 21 you will need that 1.4M
Do you recommend Palmer or Leon Bailey as a transfer in this week?
I would say Palmer because Chelsea don't have any route to goal besides Palmer doing something... Villa are better than Chelsea but it is difficult to predict whose starting and how many minutes will be played...
Would you buy salanke for isaak for a -4?
Bournemouth defender for the next 3?
Just take the hits -8 = 4 transfers and you are sorted for Xmas period ,I’m not going for the best but the most nailed
Until 2 of the players you bring in pick up a knock and waste the hit. Sometimes you need to ride these periods out.
@@lukemakar6199 I’ll just hit them out ,way more fun attacking fixtures and playing players 😂
Apparently Haaland’s dad sold him from his fpl team this week. Is that fake or true, because if it’s true that would be a sign
Yo guys who's better to bring in Son or Porro
Son
Porro, Son's got Asia Cup coming up
It is Arteta that said martinli is "ill" , ill could be a broken leg😂... I don't believe anything Arteta says
Hahaha facts tbh
Can’t believe no one is talking about richarlerson
Kulu is a better differential
Can you make a wc draft ross!
Any news on Sanchez GK
Turners back!
you should play martinelli imo
Hes flagged aswell 😆
Gabriel sure for minutes atm as no cover available
Start darwin or bowen
Is Gordon injured’
It might be worth going Alvarez to solanke for GW 18 👍
Dubravka has been a disaster since people brought him in
Guess I'm keeping haaland than😅
Thinking of using my wildcard this week...
Who is the MOST ideal Goalkeeper I could get, Areola?
Fun with flags😂
triple cap salah this week?
Are you playing fpl or connect 4 🤣
Been watching Raptor for 2 years now. Is he a Manchester United fan?? 😂❤
Triple captain Salah?

😊👍💪👊🍻
Sell Wasteman Darwin....after the Man utd game tho.
Yea cause he is playing a bunch of wasteman dem.
You could do James to Gusto & Guehi to Trent 🔥
no, you'd be short of cash for those moves.
Idk if I’m tired or he talks in 2x speed
Probably both
Areola is a bit of a tit. 😅
