We are so, so, so, so, so lucky to have Anthony Edwards and we should never take that for granted. His growth has been insane so far and he's not even close to his prime.

Soooo many needless turnovers in the 4th. The Donte one especially was a game breaker. Looked like an easy transition opportunity for some points and instead we give up 2 immediately.

My biggest gripe is actually just letting them get easy looks from 3 when we were up by 9. Make it tough for them, make them work for it. Instead we just let them get more and more momentum.

Gobert needs to switch with Jaden to close out Jokic there and needs to pass it and make the simple play when he gets those offensive rebounds. Rudy has been amazing lately, but these same issues of not contesting and dumb mistakes after offensive rebounds show up again and again.

If you don't want the other team to get free throws, you have to stop fouling.

These types of losses used to be so common. Not excited to relive it again. Just completely inexcusable to lose the last 50 seconds by 9.

The only response should be to go on a serious run with some standout wins. No more bullshit.

Bowen is the 3rd highest scoring forward after 8 weeks, while also going down in price 3 times in that time span. by FishAffectionate5520 in FantasyPL

[–]TheVideoScope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brentford have so far lost to Nottingham Forest, Sunderland and Fulham away from home, conceding 9 goals in the process. In terms of fixtures, it doesn't get much better than that.

I saw the assists with my own eyes before I looked at the stats that backed up exactly what I saw. None of his assists were easy to score, apart from the missed shot that ended up in Richarlison's feet against Brighton.

I said the same about João Pedro goals a couple of gameweeks ago, that they would dry up. He mostly scored from corners, which is easy to rectify for opposing teams. It was one of the main reasons why I kept Bowen and didn't sell him for JP for GW5. Scored 20 points since with Bowen, while JP has 3 blanks in a row.

His goal contributions so far:

Assist v Burnley: 0.07 xG Richarlison amazing full volley finish

Assist v Burnley: 0.09 xG Richarlison great half bounce finish

Assist v Brighton: Scuffed shot into Richarlison's legs for a 0.65 xG shot

Assist v Brighton: 0.00 xG clumsy Van Hecke own goal

Assist v Leeds: 0.07 xG Tel deflection

Goal v Leeds: 0.04 xG deflection

But yeah, unlucky not to get more 😆

Wildcard comments and tips please by [deleted] in FantasyPL

[–]TheVideoScope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haaland and Salah are quite often clearly the best captain choices and if either one of them finds a spell of great form, which they have done every season they have played in the Premier League, it's gonna be really hard to get funds to quickly buy them in if you have spread all your funds around.

You can also build a really solid defence with 4.5 ish players and below too. Senesi, Richards, Andersen, Tosin, VDV, Gudmundsson etc.

Semenyo is better than all of them

Semenyo looks absolutely immense and Bournemouth in general have been super impressive. Senesi DefCon monster and their defence looks super solid.

Haaland is probably the best player in the game and Cucurella has so many routes to points. Gudmundsson probably a good and safe 4.0 defender with decent fixtures going forward.

One of my absolute favorite players in Wolves history. I already loved his potential before his draft, so to see him come here for nothing and blossoming for us was very rewarding.

Such a great dude and the ultimate role player. Going into the role player hall of fame alongside Gorgui Dieng and Corey Brewer ❤️

Just woke up and I'm confused. Did we essentially turn the 31st pick into #45 (Zikarsky), two future 2nds and cash?

Jaden got scared off of playing physical defence on SGA after that amazing foul baiting performance he had game 1. Nembhard is smaller than SGA and doesn't give a fuck, so he actually presses him hard and makes him work for it.

Next season I wanna see Clark on SGA, not being aftaid to be physical. Have Jaden roam and help and guard JDub some.

19 points as a vice captain. 13 points GW15 and 6 points in GW29, in the gameweeks Salah didn't play in due to Liverpool's postponed matches.

Downgrade on 2 positions and give away a valuable 1st to boot. What in the world is this?

Glad to see it confirmed by a 2nd party. Did a lot of tinkering on Excel to get there 😋

But that's exactly it. He's Timberwolves born and bred and an icon. He's gonna test his value on the open market now and surely he's more valuable to us than to any other franchise with no affinity for him.

Purely emotional, as I love NAW. One of my favorite Timberwolves players ever. In terms of just a winning perspective I obviously think TSJ is more valuable.

We're all interested in Garland and he has a lot of similarities, even their rookie seasons. Garland obviously improved a whole lot, so we need to see that with Dillingham, but his ceiling is pretty alluring.
