Discussion EPL Dream Team Discussion - Season 2019/20

[Ironhawk]

TAA with 2 assists and a goal the only player redeeming my team this week. Made over half of my score - pity not as captain.

 

[Dazza]

Mixed bag this morning.

Captain Salah, Moura, Pereira and Maddison all spudding it up
TAA wow, Alisson, Robertson Kane and Alli all good

Sterling and DeBruyne to come

9/110

 

[Herbie66]

no Vardy party when they get hammered 4 nil at home , Liverpool sending a message.

Is Ancelotti the new messiah ?

 

[THCLT]

No TAA...or any Liverpool players for that matter!

 

[Ironhawk]

Hooray, my keeper got himself a red card. They lost as well, so wasn't worth it.

Need to find a replacement by tonight too - reminder to all the next round starts tonight.

 

[KLo30]

Wolves beat City 3-2

WOW

 

[KLo30]

Quick turn around. Week 20 starts tonight.

It has made me keeperless too!

The -4 is annoying, but I can’t complain about scoring 140 (Sterling)

Any keeper suggestions? Or keep it simple and grab Alisson now.

 

[Diabolical]

Wolves beat City 3-2

WOW

I don’t think anyone can be bothered challenging Liverpool this year.

 

[THCLT]

Any keeper suggestions...?

The advantage with Alisson is that Liverpool has played 1 less game than the rest so will have a DG GW in the future.

He also had a BE of -7 before his 12 this week, so will jump a bit in price but should still be affordable.

So, we are at the half way mark of the season. How many trades should we be sitting on? How many should we set aside for injuries, etc?

No idea, but I am sitting on 21 which probably explains my slow start! I have deliberately been trying to keep it around one trade per week left as I know I will churn through a few when the DGWs and byes start biting us.

I would say you need at least 15 trades for the back half of the season. Some teams will have B2B games with just 48hrs between them over this stretch of clustered schedule, plus you'll need some trades to navigate through the BLANK & DGWs which is to come. Outside the GKP2 position, ensuring that all other players are fit and regular starting XI will be crucial as resting becomes more prevalent.

 

[THCLT]

1st Round of the Eliminator starts this GW as well. There's a $200 prize for the winner and considering the #1 team at season's end only gets $500, that's something to have a go at if you feel that your team is out of the running for overall honours.

 

[jaca]

I should probably stop trading for a while!

[Dazza]

57 overall, up 23 spots

 

[Courtesans]

152, 24th for the week, best result of the year. Good luck in the eliminator everyone.

 

[Ironhawk]

Sounds like Leicester is likely to be making a few changes, resting players for the over night match, doubt they'll be the only ones doing that too. No Vardy party maybe?
