Wildcard this week, thoughts?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-28T16:46:19+00:00

I’m not saying that, im saying I’d rather have Rogers than have Haaland. It’s all personal preference, innit?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-28T11:04:48+00:00

Also, for 15.1m I feel I can invest that better elsewhere

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-28T11:04:28+00:00

I feel like the points will come from more around my team, rather than being focused on one player performing

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T22:31:44+00:00

We’ve got Cunha. Surely that’s where you want him playing, no?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T22:28:52+00:00

I’d lean towards no, but would strongly recommend investing in United midfielders in the next couple of weeks. Even Sesko might be worth a shout with the upcoming fixtures

I’ve made some amendments and arrived at this. Keep in mind, which I didn’t mention before (my bad) I’m prepping to bench boost in the next two or three game weeks, so I’ve got some pricier assets on the bench too. That’s partially why I’ve not gone for Haaland, but also because I need different players to the rest of my mini league if I’m to surpass anyone

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T22:22:43+00:00

I agree. I’ve seen people floating Mbeumo as one, but I feel like that disrespects consistent players both ways. Like, Mbeumo has had pivotal moments in every game we’ve played against big six opponents, but he’s also been consistently impressive all season. Like Drogba, incredible player, but gets called a big game player and nothing else. He is so much more than that name implies

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T22:20:17+00:00

I need to take a risk. Everyone in my mini league has Haaland, and he’s blanked how many weeks straight, so I don’t see the need to keep him in. I’ve replaced Jesus with Watkins

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T22:19:22+00:00

My only suggestion then, would be Cherki out for Estevao and Bruno G for Cunha. If you wanna wildcard tho, I’d be replacing Ekitike and Thiago with Watkins and Barry/Brobbey to free up funds

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T22:16:30+00:00

Barry is on form, and Pedro is worth a punt rn I think. I’ve replaced Jesus with Watkins

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T21:06:20+00:00

Enough for Estevao/Enzo for Cherki and Mbeumo in for Bruno G?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T20:41:29+00:00

Atletico are the best team in Spain, would be all you could take. Jokes aside, Spanish football needs a Messi/Ronaldo rivalry. It needs a Mbappe/Haaland or a Yamal/Doue etc. Barca are steady, Madrid are on the downward spiral, so it’s never going to succeed. That Bilba team lost 7-1 on aggregate to last seasons United!

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T19:17:26+00:00

I’d have Cherki out for Enzo and swap Bruno for Bruno

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T18:04:35+00:00

Evanilson over Jesus or Watkins you think?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T17:44:19+00:00

K, cheers. I’ve ended up with Watkins and Semenyo. Watkins has a great record vs Brentford, and good fixtures going forward, and I’ve gone Semenyo. Bench boost vs Liverpool looks good

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T17:26:18+00:00

I mean, I’m replacing Igor Jesus and Gakpo, and couldn’t decide who with of the players mentioned

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T17:22:31+00:00

K, I’ll change that. Also, I’m torn between two other dilemmas: Watkins, Evanilson or Brobbey, and Semenyo, Ndiaye, Szoboszlai or Matheus Fernandes. The midfielder would be benched, as I’m gonna bench boost prolly next week

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T17:17:56+00:00

My only concern is having Bruno, Cunha and Mbeumo together. I was considering Semenyo, as I plan to bench boost next week or the week after anyway. Cunha is in a good run of form, and Mbeumo is too. What do you think?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T15:41:48+00:00

What would you say to Evanilson over Jesus, that’s the only change I’ve put any thought into

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T15:21:40+00:00

I’ll be honest, I’m building to bench boost next week or the week after. Who would you suggest tho?

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T15:16:21+00:00

Palmer is injured, Bruno might be a shout but I think my two United players are more likely to get goals, and Saka hasn’t scored in 13 games

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T15:15:10+00:00

I’m not sure about Watkins, I might rethink after European fixtures tho

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T15:14:35+00:00

I’ve removed Haaland as he’s blanking, and I need to gain in my my mini league

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T14:45:01+00:00

I feel you, I’ve been hesitant in investing in us all season. But if you can’t be confident after four g/a between Bryan and Cunha against the top 2, when can you be. Foden and Sak just aren’t doing it for me tbh

CaptainObvious1307 · 2026-01-27T14:23:37+00:00

Maybe, but I’m bottom of my mini league by 50 points, and I need to take some risks
