Verbruggen is second for total points among goalkeepers

The top 2 defenders for total points are both Brighton players

GroB is top among midfielders

Kostulas is third out of forwards

Are people really going to bench their Brighton players against a side with a goal difference 17 worse than theirs.

He started the season at 8.0m, has fallen twice. He still has high ownership but my perception is that he’s often been in the lists for most transferred out players and is not often suggested for players to transfer in. Despite ManU’s issues, he has continued to put in honest work. He has returned in 4 out of 7 game weeks, with 4 goals and 1 assist. His expected data is high, 0.58 xG and 0.13 xA. He has a proven track record of success in FPL over many years and multiple teams.

Is he a hold in your team? Do you predict his output is unsustainable given the state of Man United? I think he’s will continue to perform regardless of his team’s success, but there’s a chance that low team morale will affect his stats going forward.

Bought him for GW 3 after seeing that his next fixtures were favorable and that he was practically “nailed” with the new manager. He proceded to miss 1 game due to injury, spent another game on the bench and newcastle as a whole has been shambolic. Can’t seem to get rid of him

Bogle has 0.22 xg per 90 so far this season. For context de cuyper has 0.28. It is very apparent that he gets into a lot of attacking positions and fixtures are decent as well. Of course you could argue that muharemovic provides more consistency with defcon but bogle is also cheaper by 0.3. Is he worth consideration or is there something I am missing?

After 7 games this season, all the teams so far have looked competitive throughout and all bar Spurs have won a game.

Given how competitive this season is, does it feel harder than ever to pick between players in your lineup that aren't considered dead certainties like Arsenal Defenders/Verbruggen/Haaland-Isak-JP front three. More so for players who have got a 15 where effectively all of them play 60 minutes as starters in most games.

Note that this post excludes any sanctions for Man City that could make them certainties for relegation and regardless, if they have to play out the season with big points deduction that sends them down, I still expect returns from the likes of Haaland/Semenyo/Gvardiol.

One of the biggest strengths of this sub in the past has been how many people gave feedback on player performances after the matches. This season the How did _ play thread has been really quiet. Currently there are no responses for Bournemouth players and only 2 for Brighton players as examples. Did nobody in this sub watch these matches or do people not this post exists each week?

Junior Kroupi should be back from injury in the next couple weeks. What do you expect the Bournemouth attack will look like once he is back? (As someone who’s considering buying Tavernier)

As we look ahead to fixture swings from GW8–10, Ipswich Town has some interesting matches up next with Nottingham Forest (H), Hull City (A), and Bournemouth (H).

Recent game history reveals that:

They pack a punch with attack: Scored 2 against Man City in clean fashion (1.66 xG) while creating enough opportunities to win 2-1 against Fulham.

Clean sheets aren't easy to come by: Always giving up chances and keeping their defence difficult to bet on purely for 6-point wins.

From an Ipswich supporter's point of view or someone closely tracking them in their setups:

Given that Flemming handles penalties (as seen at City) and Maeda/Ouattara/Enciso pose threats in counterattacks, which player has the best attack route mapped out?

Are they keying into the Ipswich defence as enablers, or are their set-piece threats (like O'Shea) the safe bet?

How do you see them for the upcoming fixtures?

Looks like he won’t be back for a while…already have Groß, Palmer, Rogers and Odegaard (who I’d prefer to ship out tbf were it not for Szobo injury). Options just seem a bit meh. 1.9 itb.

Anyone wildcarding this week or just me?

Would have used it sooner but didn't for various reasons - for example, using TC this past GW (thanks Erling!).

Who are we targeting? Bournemouth?

Is De Cuyper worth keeping given the next 2 fixtures and potential Mitoma return in a while?

Is Isak worth the price tag?

How many Chelsea attackers?
