Discussion EPL Dream Team Discussion - Season 2021/22

[The Banker]

Not much went right in week 6. Gallagher on the chopping block, Saka coming in. Unsure 2nd trade. Have James, but don’t have to rush that if I can put together 11 players. Too many fires

Score: 104
Rd Rank: 576
Overall Rank: 129 (from 163)

Jimenez registers his first goal of the season and in the process, outscored the quartet of M Alonso, T Alexander-Arnold, V Van Dijk and R Lukaku. Great debut by Raphinha but the potential for an upcoming absence soured the result given Saka was next on the list as a trade in target last round. Hopefully he is fine to play in the next match.

As for trades this round, I cannot trade Ali to to Saka in one move as I fall $1,130,000 short. Digne and Gallagher are the only other players with trade value and substantial cash to be made upon their departure.

Currently considering:
Out: C Gallagher and D Alli
In: B Saka and D Luiz


Ideally, I can sit on this for a few rounds (if all are fit) and when Mbeumo is ready to trade, Maddison should be an ideal replacement under $4,000,000 to pocket $2,000,000 thus allowing Luiz to become De Bruyne at a latter stage.

128. Coming from 1,413 after Wk 2 to 329 after Wk 6 not expected at all. Just a triffle bit of luck there.

Going to have keep Gallagher🥲l hope he goes big this week

Going to trade Ali and Traore first

WOL play early, so I'll decide then if Adama goes. If he's starting, I'll probably keep him.
Hopefully he had time to think long and hard on the bench, about all those misses.
Makes moving to Jime easy, but it could save a transfer that could be used elsewhere.
I might even roll it and then bring in Lukaku the following week in that spot.

 

[vsberlina]

Adama Traore 18
Raul Jiminez -1
Kevin DeBruyne 23
Jack Grealish 18
Harry Kane 19
Lucas Digne 13

OK, Adama is now dead to me, starting or not.

Gee, when did Luiz become KDB? He's usually a holding mid but his KPs are off the charts the last 2 games.
One to watch in FPL too as I'm looking for a 4.5 MID.
You don't feel lucky to go Saka AND ESR?

Rumours on Twitter that TAA is out for 3 weeks.

Rumours on Twitter that TAA is out for 3 weeks.

Good to have a longer break between this round and the next. Hopefully it is only just this round and can be back after the break.
If longer term the Chelsea defender's look a good option.

Yep. Good timing. 3 weeks = only this GW lost.
I had heard that type of injury is usually 2-3 weeks, so hopefully 3 weeks is enough and then some.

Saw the last minute Maupay goal and I'm livid. As a CB, if it was the 95th minute and I saw the opposition GK with the ball looking to just boot it long with a 'Hail Mary', I wouldn't worry about holding the line. Just get back ASAP and let the other two DEF deal with him.
There were 3 DEF all around him and the GK came out to no man's land. They couldn't have made it easier for him if they tried.

Thinking of pushing my luck with the right winger vs NOR this week. I think it's Gudmundsson, but his stats don't look enticing.
Anyone feeling lucky for a punt on Westwood or Wood. Knock on wood or get knocked out by Wood?

Real Madrid beaten at home for just the 2nd time in the last 32 Group matches in the Champions League

I have honestly never heard of Sheriff Tiraspol

Messi finally scored for PSG , was worth the wait
