No rush to get NEW assets next week. Tough game, so can wait another week.
Lots of DEF going minus. Given they're dirt cheap though, there's not much to lose on them, and they can bounce back in a week.
But scary if you need to rely on them starting. Good thing LUT & BUR have byes next week.

FPL 7/62
Haaland C 26, Saka 10, Pedro 7, Estupinan 7, Johnstone 6, Martinelli 5, Gabriel 1. Decent start, Gabriel the only fail. Rashford, Bruno, Maddison and Shaw to come. Chilwell on the bench.

RDT 6/98
Haaland C 40, Saka 19, Diaby 15, Pedro 13, Eze 11, Timber 0. Timber was very disappointing, everyone else did ok though. 11 from Eze without a return is cool. Torres and Ahmedhodzic on the bench with 6 and 5. Bruno, Chilwell, Wissa, Richarlison and Flekken to come. Udogie on the bench.

6/107
Played: E Haaland (C), K Walker, B Saka, J Pedro, E Eze and M Diaby
Yet to play: Y Wissa, M Flekken, B Chilwell, M Salah and D Szoboszlai

Tonali spent a considerable amount of time in the fourth to fifth onfield midfield position but switched to Szoboszlai over the past few days. Can trade down Wissa if need be in RD3. Great returns from all involved so far.

I wonder what the denominator will be for BE this season. 10,000? That'll mean 1 pt per 1,000,000.
The value change is usually 1 pt = $750.

Hopefully some big guns bow low so we can grab them, cos cash gen is looking pretty difficult.
Not many players getting misc pts. Pretty much it's appearance, CS, goal and assist for points.

What you've quoted is as good as a guide early in the season.

It's typically a bit higher at the start of a season as the higher priced players PTA is overstated. The number will depend on how these players and the low end priced players score leading up to price changes in GW3.

In the years that I've been tracking price movements, it's usually 5% overstated at the start of the season. By around GW8, it tends to level out at around 2% to 3% below the mark you've stated.

Essendon
FPL - 6/53 Haaland
Estupinan, Saka, Eze, Joao Pedro, Haaland (C), and of course Timber :mad:
Chilwell, Rashford, Mbeumo, Onana, and Salah to come

RDT - 5/97 Haaland VC
Haaland, Walker, Saka, Pedro, Tonali
Wissa, Chilwell, Szoboszlai, Flekken, B Fernandes, and Rashford to come

Very happy with RDT atm. Hoping for 150+

Just a biased note - looking for someone that will float under the radar - Awoniyi - has scored 7 goals in his last 5 EPL games now. Am just waiting for NF to play Man U and Man C and I will pounce.

RDT 4/65
Played: Haaland 40 (C), Saka 19, Torres 6, Timber 0
To Play: Flekken, Chilwell, Fernandes, Szoboszlai, Wissa, Salah and Mudryk

No idea if that's any good or not. Know that the Timber donut doesn't help :(.

Feels strange to still have 7 to play with only a few games left.
Timber injury was bad luck. But then you got lucky with Torres who for 1 minute more, would have got -8 for the 5 goals conceded.
So I guess luck really evened itself out, as they say.

Only 4 of my players have played also. It's not unusual. Given we target players from the better teams, and better teams play later, it will be a common occurrence throughout the season.

Some popular picks have done well, namely BRI trio of Pedro, Mitoma and Estupinan. Then there was Tonali and Diaby.
It was expected, but their fixtures will turn and become more difficult. Just gotta have patience with your team.
You have some nice players to come, particularly big hitters in Bruno and Salah. One going big could even things out for the week.
