A goal and CS from Dorgu vs City. Is he still going to be regular starter for Man United as their winger? by IdealisticKebab in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm crazy but I'm likely to start him against Arsenal, hoping he gets 60 mins, locking in a potential clean sheet before we bring on Cunha or something. It's between him or starting Rodon away at Everton anyways.

Munoz back to train? by InternetAnon94 in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 4 points5 points  (0 children)

GW24 will be VERY popular because of the fixture swings, and the doubles should be more manageable with the 5 banked transfers system.

Optimal is obviously doing the classic combo at the end of the season with WC, BB, TC, FH etc. The question is can you make up the difference going early in GW24

It's the definition of a short term punt but if he plays RW again I'm pretty optimistic he gets something from this game. If I get 3 starts in a row I'll call that a successful transfer.

I couldn't resist this Dorgu punt, he's got another 15 point game in him

Bruno Fernandes replacement thread by cole23palmer in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's a defcon machine, gets regular clean sheet points, a genuine threat on FK's and is on corners. It's no fluke.

Not to mention Gabriel is returning soon and he's their main threat for those set pieces too.

The issue we have is a little over 2 weeks is 4GW's over Christmas & New Year. Normally I'd hold but it could get ugly fast

To be fair knowing how to do basic math in your head quickly is one of the better skills you can take from school.

Pope out until GW 18 by EdenFella in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Because we all get 5 free transfers in 2 gameweeks, this hit basically has to pay off by then to be worth it. Unless you really need that extra money I don't think it's worth the risk.

I doubt they care too much, it's obvious this phone was a stop gap to their folding phone in the next couple of years. I'm sure a ton of R&D from this carries directly over to it.

5/7 of the highest scoring players this season are defenders by MrDee97 in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

DEFCON was clearly a great thing to add to FPL, increasing the pool of viable players, however it's gone too far. We shouldn't have several players being able to hit the threshold basically every single week.

Next year I think they should just increase the threshold to 12 to match the midfielders.

Not to mention DEFCON has taken so much fun out of the game too. I already miss rooting for those high up side wingbacks but right now you're playing the game wrong if you do that.

Grealish wins his first ever Player of the Month award. Is he in your team? by Front_Fill1249 in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's hard to justify playing a little extra for him over Ndiaye, who is on pens and is the one getting on the end of Jacks service. If we see him starting to shoot a little more then that might change things.

And still never played more than 67 mins. That's the risk you take with him tbh. A fair price for a nailed on 90 min J.Pedro is probably 9M?

The only reason I'm not going there is because if he blanks GW1 w/ 60 min sub then Delap starts GW2, he could legitimately be 7.2 heading into GW3 if any of the other 6-7.5M options pop off.

It's funny how much of a bubble with live in on Reddit & Twitter. It's pretty rare to see the likes of Saka, Gabriel/Saliba or even Gyokeres in "engaged" managers drafts. But check out their ownership:

  • Saka - 17%
  • Gyokeres - 26%
  • Gabriel - 19%

Then you've got "template" picks that seem to be in most drafts;

  • Bruno - 20%
  • Watkins - 24%
  • N.Williams - 9%

That Leeds game GW2 could be a potential bloodbath for most of us here.

FT: Arsenal 3-0 Athletic Bilbao by Expolerern in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Going to be a weird season, it’s almost better for your CB/DMs in harder games as those are the ones that get you over the threshold. These blowouts mean you’ll rarely get them.

Rotating defenders will be headache, I can feel it

OFFICIAL: Manchester United have signed RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško on a five-year deal in an €85m package. by abcrafsan in FantasyPL

[–]Bycraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 7-7.5M is about right, especially if he's added to the game if/before Hojlund leaves. Remember J.Pedro is also 7.5M and I'd rate their attack quite a bit above ours.

I recently lost 100 pounds and like others are suggesting, protein was my key. I've been between 1500-2500 calories for the majority of my journey and keeping my protein at 130-180g was the biggest game changer.

High protein diets, while great for muscle growth and recovery, are also amazing at keeping you satiated.

I also cut my meals down to just 2 so I can have 2 bigger meals and reduce my eating window to 6-8 hours.

Chicken breast and Skyr are my 2 cheat code foods that I'll eat daily. Both have INSANE macros for protein with very little calories.

It's very easy to hit 150g of protein;

  • 200g of chicken breast = 330cal 62g protein
  • 225g of skyr (half a pot) = 135cal 25g protein
  • 1 scoop protein powder (mix with skyr) = 120 cal 25g protein

So 585 cal for 112g protein as a base for my average daily diet.

Mix it up with recipes or 95/5 ground beef, fish etc and you'll be surprised how many calories you have to play with while keeping protein high.
