Discussion EPL Dream Team Discussion - Season 2021/22

[The Banker]

Do you have Alli? Alli is my early punt. Have zero confidence in him, but he's cheaper and will still see a price rise.

Nah don’t own Alli.
Just by chance of my interest in Brentford and West Ham over the last couple of weeks, I have watched Palace and like Gallagher more. Going in with zero expectation, but if he does score, with a -17 BE his price is going to quickly jump. Happy to punt on the home team.

 

[Connoisseur]

I think Pogba has to go. Whether Gallagher is the one to come in is another issue.

Lukaku will likely drop in value. Benrahma will still rise. Lukaku then has 2 tough opponents.
That move might be a week too early, but then this Villa game is pretty juicy. He might well go big.

Thank you. Feels a tad early to be parting with Benrahma given last round was his debut but the move was solely for cash generation with the hope he could continue his run of attacking returns. Very enticed by the fixture for Lukaku emphasised by the strong likelihood that he will receive captaincy duties first up and need him to nullify the absence of Antonio in my side. Also like Mount as an option but could not afford him to replace Mbeumo and would prefer to keep Canos a while longer.

Looking forward to Gallagher smashing expectations after milking the tired watermelon schtick for far too long.

I like the kid too, but not sure on his proper position. Looks like he was an AM, but now playing RM.
Where ever he plays, he looks a threat. Started off strong at WBA last season too, but then fizzled quickly and just picked up yellows every week.
But he's getting older, and hopefully wiser, and should improve.

 

[vsberlina]

Gonna have to risk Chalobah. Thiago Silva is available so could stifle my plans. Can't change formation either. Donut or glory it is.
Damn the later game. But maybe I'll get lucky and Tsimikas will get a run again whilst Robbo is rested.

Still having trouble deciding which Man U midfielder to drop. Options are currently:

Out: P Pogba and S Benrahma
In: C Gallagher and R Lukaku

Or
Out: B Fernandes and S Benrahma
In: J Grealish and R Lukaku
View attachment 34201

Think I like the first option better, pogba most likely undoes all the work he did in week 1 but if you hold fernandes and he blanks you will have to carry him after he drops over 3 mil. I was looking at removing fernandes and pogba this week but I can't have no man u assets against Newcastle so I will hold fernandes. Even if he loses penalties he still looks like he is a top 5 mid

 

[Dazza]

Pogba out Gallagher in

Other mostly likely Vardy to Antonio

If United score 5 and Bruno's not involved, buy a lottery ticket cos lady luck will owe you big time.

My feeling is that both Bruno and CR7 will destroy each other in terms of being fantasy assets.
Bad for FPL, where prices don't change much, but not a problem here.
As you said, he's still a top 5 MID at the end of the day, so who cares what his price is in the mean time.

 

[vsberlina]

Dier dead. Rodon on at 12'.

Dier was a popular pick in FPL.

Rodon $4m. On the watchlist now.

Handy if Man Utd get a penalty this week to see who takes it

Whichever one gets/keeps PK and FK will become the fantasy asset.

The talk seems to be that Ronaldo will take more penalty kits and Bruno will take more free kicks

 

[PressurePoint]

Gallagher up to 7 at half time without any goals or assists, hope he can snag something in the second half

 

[Under The Dome]

Did Spurs forget to bring their forward half back from international break?
No registered shots.

No registered shots.

I guess they don’t want to overdo it … still on track for another 1-0 win.

 

[vsberlina]

What a boring game... and then the biff starts. Popcorn time.

Kane will drop like a stone in price, the question now is, is he worth having out of form with Salah Lukaku and Ronaldo running around?

 

[vsberlina]

Nah. Hopefully CR7 is on the bench and Bruno buries it. We'll take the pts and CR7 holders can keep on wondering.

 

[vsberlina]

Given he hasn't had a shot and has less pts that a DM, we'll worry about it when he's $3.5m

 

[vsberlina]

Tanganga 2nd yellow. Both deserved.

Spurs in trouble.

My Alli pick looking look crap.
Gallagher killing it. Probably 9 pts already and now looking great against 10 men.
