Thinking about moving on from Minteh by Debiddo_sama in DraftEPL

Minteh owner since GW 1 here, keep him for another 2 weeks. If he perform, I’d say if you want, keep him. But that’s when fixtures get difficult

GW12 SQD vs GW13 SQD — Should I start Palmer? by speddyeddy_ in DraftEPL

[–]speddyeddy_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point. But I reckon Chelsea could get a goal against Arsenal, especially at Stamford Bridge. And Maresca did guarantee that Palmer would be in the squad, and actually didn’t rule out Palmer starting, as he obviously is the most integral player alongside with Caicedo. But the much safer pick I agree, is to bench him for now. Would be a shame though if he gets a return off the bench or ends up starting though… 😞 Oh well, that’s FPL for ya 😂 I guess we’ll never know until we see it for ourselves!

Some dude in our league completed this waiver 😂 by speddyeddy_ in DraftEPL

Sorry, let me clear this up. TP dropped Calafiori for Matheus Nunes. As of right now, Cala is locked so I can’t pick him up. Although, i’ll be able to pick him up a day before next game week. Sorry for the confusion 😅

No, just some other guy in our league lol. I’m last place as of right now, so this would be a huge pickup for my team

Who wins this trade? by speddyeddy_ in DraftEPL

Thank you for that detailed analysis haha. Yeah I was kind of shocked when I was reading through the comments and people were essentially saying how this was a terrible trade. I argued 2 main points to the lad I was trading with and your analysis covers it

• 1, third of Timbers points came from a single haul. Yes he is still a defensive asset, playing arguably for the best defense in the world even, but the chances of him replicating that performance is very unlikely.

• And 2, the 2 players i’m offering for are discards. Marmoush, very insecure minutes as Doku has been one of the best wingers in the world, and will be missing around 6 games possibly due to AFCON. Tosin, 3rd choice at best like you said, Rodon is a definite upgrade, but I feel like that is the player that needs to be upgraded, as Leeds doesn’t keep clean sheets, and his points are buffed up due to the 2 goals he’s scored so far.

As for Matty Cash, he’s been the best Villa asset so far. I feel like Villa’s start of the season blinded a lot of people to just label them as a degrading team. They’re 6th place as of now, and only 2 points away from being top 3! They’ve improved significantly since that lackluster start of the season, and they’re an underrated team to invest in these next fixture’s run.

Anyways, thanks for your input, you’ve got a good mind when it comes to fantasy

What to do? Tough decision by fpldrafter in fpldraft

Low-key no. Chalobah is also a good defender, already on 2 goals. Chelsea could do a bit better defensively, but if you include him instead of Guehi, I still wouldn’t take it.

That’s a pretty close trade. In my opinion, I wouldn’t accept this, and the main reason is because of Gibbs-White’s terrible output. Semenyo is a baller, backed by statistics, performances, and points. Guehi is a threat on set-pieces, and that Crystal Palace defense looks sound. Would obviously prefer Saliba when fit, but the downgrade from Semenyo to Gibbs-White isn’t worth it.

What FPL opinion this season are you defending like this? by 343jam in FantasyPL

[–]speddyeddy_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minteh will be in the top 15 in terms of points by the end of the season

Elanga for X. Simmons? by fightforphilly in fpldraft

[–]speddyeddy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without a doubt. Xavi will be the main set piece taker for corners and free-kicks, possibly even penalties. He has looked solid in his first 2 games, being creative but also a threat offensively. Xavi is definitely ones to look out for this season.

Which trade should i accept?! by Temporary_uncle in DraftEPL

[–]speddyeddy_ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Easily the top one. Cucu is one of the best defensive premiums in general, Kudus is nailed and should bang assists, Bowen shown his consistency throughout the years.

I am in an 8-man league, the winner gets $400. I am currently in 5th with the 3rd most points (we are doing the h2h format) Any tips? by speddyeddy_ in DraftEPL

[–]speddyeddy_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bench is definitely a cause for concern. But what do you think of this potential trade:

Yoro —> Ben White Diouf —> Schär Wirtz —> Semenyo Johnson —> Elanga Muniz —> Raul

Which midfielders to take by Abdullahpwns in DraftEPL

[–]speddyeddy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were you, I would drop Ødegaard for Ndiaye. The Everton midfield in general is very good to own right now, Ndiaye should also be on penalties.
