Discussion EPL Dream Team Discussion - Season 2021/22

[Under The Dome]

OK, almost shot myself in the head.
Sent Sportsdeck a message about Gundy's points and it looks like they've changed them (even though it says pts are final once next GW is open).
Some of my opponents had him in they've come damn too close at almost winning our H2H.
So all of you Gundy holders, have a look later tonight and you should have a nice surprise.
It looks like they're currently updated things.

Awesome! I knew he was missing a blocked shot point but for him to get an extra 3 on top is cool.
Pushed me up a total of 4 points to 192 for the round.

Thanks for alerting them

 

[Under The Dome]

I wonder if other players have incorrect statlines.

Yep, that BS saved a certain goal and definitely wasn't a dubious one.
I think they missed a KP also, and they mixed up his successful & unsuccessful dribbles which was another 2 pts.
Definitely was robbed 4 pts.

I had my mate Dirk in one of our H2H leagues and he had Gundy.
He was 7 pts behind, but now is showing 2, so I think some others might also be wrong.

Hopefully they find that Pogba's pts should be -34. That'll be great for us non-Pog holders.

Yep, most of my team from WK 1.

Gee, ASM 11 pts without the goal involvement.
Impressive given Hammers played NEW off the park in the 2nd half.
Could be a nice differential for those who like a punty pick, given he has Villa and Soton next.

No draws this week? 7 home wins and 3 away wins.
Looks like crowds are swinging the advantage back to home teams.

Willock also rejoins them after signing fulltime last week.

Arsenal sure could use Willock right now

Cheers for the extra points 🤗

183. Gundogen and Buendia the only real disappointment due to their price.

Probably trade both down to Canos and Pogba due to nice fixtures and to have $$ in bank for upgrades.
just pray man city don’t go nuts against Norwich!

 

[Under The Dome]

Going to be fun watching Man United. That is if they can get that midfield attack all fit at once.
Fernandes, Lingard, Pogba, Rashford, Sancho, Greenwood and Cavani.

Given City lost and will be playing in front of their home crowd, I'm not one to bet against them.
Getting as much City as I can in various FF games, but likely only 1 for Sportal.

Martial gave your comment a thumbs down.

You also forgot the biggest threat of all, Scott McTominay.

 

[vsberlina]

Salah has only one goal against BUR in 7 games. Blanked against them in the last 3/3 home games.

Captaincy options? Bruno & .......... CANCELO!

 

[jaca]

Have Buendia and Havertz in mid. Young in def. Would you ship them? Have 4m in the bank, own Pogba but not Canos, Pinnock etc.

I’m going to take the opportunity to ship Young. Villa still have 2 decent home fixtures, but then roll into a stretch of not so good fixtures. On top of that, I’m not sure how defensively sound they are this year. Young presented an opportunity as an OOP defender at a good price compared to his teammates, but Targett butchered that when Sarr got a hold of him in the first half. At HT the Targett change was made and Young went back.
On Canos, I’m not sure the job security is as good as perceived on here, but that comes from a podcast I listen to so it’s only someone else’s opinion anyway. Scoring Brentford’s first goal won’t have hurt. As a short term option he’s fine I would imagine, and at that price he’s only a short term option I guess.

Robertson got back to training a day ago and jogged laps around the pitch. Hopefully Tsimikas can have a decent run till he returns.

Buendia plays early and has NEW. NEW were very loose and could offer Emi good pts. If he starts, maybe give him one more chance.

Havertz will likely start this week, but Lukaku is back. Where will he play? Will he do much against ARS away?
His game is late so doesn't let you have a look. Only WHU vs LEI will be left to play.

Figure out who your 2 most important trades are this week. Your FOR look good. Toney can wait another week.

Maybe Havertz and Young are your two to trade out this week.

Do you remember whose podcast? Reputation is everything.
All these FPL pundits have an opinion, but some hold more weight than others.
Most are like me though, and just talk crap.

 

[Under The Dome]

Palace play Brentford for the first time since 1982 in any competition.

 

[vsberlina]

Yeah, Tsimikas might not see 2 games. 3 is all we want. A few extra million would be handy should we need to dip into a cash fund.

Talk some players might have to isolate for 10 days on return from International duty.
Brazilians and Salah could be affected. Something to keep in mind for GW4.

Some United fans think Ole doesn't trust Fred or McTominay to play DM alone, and he doesn't want a double pivot, so Pogba will soon go back to his normal position. I guess he's still a cash cow and still offers the best risk/reward of many other MIDs, but it'd be nice if he stayed in his attacking position and filled in another spot on out DT.
