Yep. In my team currently. I think he can go at 100 if his body holds up. That’s 20 pts upside. Not a guy to be trading into so it’s start him or fade for the season.

I dont buy it ultimately, Simmo is always going to inject hope he did the same last pre season only for him to ultimately break down but if hes being carefully managed to get through a pre season hows he going to last as a prime midfielder, hasnt been able to in 4 years even with a split role.

That’s essentially the question…whether his body is up to it and if the upside outweigh this risk. If he stays on the park we know he can score and the role also sounds good. Any niggle in the preseason and he becomes a complete no-go.

Damn - there's no hidden gems anymore, IMO PODs are pretty much dead and buried with so much social media coverage in fantasy games. You just pick a team bases on ownership levels and the coach who trades best will win.

Yep, very annoying - you do your own research/planning & then others just get spoon fed all the info on social media :mad:

Yes and no. I think it's moved from doing your research to find the hidden gems to doing your research to be able to filter the info that you see as valuable. With so many Supercoach sites and podcasts, it seems every man and his dog has an opinion on a player and often they are completely opposite.
There is still a place for a savvy operator to sort the wheat from the chaff and make a better decision than the average punter.
