Transfers Gameweek 2 - Sat 21 Aug 11:00 - Deadline

[SirMattBugsby]

Did Gundogan -> Pogba before his rise. Now it looks like I'll regret that since Gundogan seems to be back in training.

Lol we are our own worst enemies. First Robertson had an 'ankle dislocation' but back in training after one week, then Gundo was diagnosed with clavicle fracture and/or AC joint injury

Looks like there's an optimum time to spend on FPL, after which things go downward

I think the "dislocation" (at best) came from a TV commentator type bod at the time.

[Dragon!Mullet]

Maddison -> Benrahma
Triggered by the latter's price rise and Maddison's yellow flag.

Hopefully rolling, but possibly Veltman -> ? If he looks like dropping before deadline. Have Ayling already, so might be Pinnock or Holgate if Digne doesn’t come back onto set pieces

[Owsler]

Decided to roll. Probably be more of a kick to the nuts if Buendia and Barnes do well next GW than if I miss out on scores from players I don't have right now. Two transfers will come in handy too. Not interested in the Pep lottery either.

Did Digne not take any set Pieces ? If not who did ?

Took some but Townsend was on most of them I believe.

[danjones]

Yup - Townsend in the majority

[fantasyfaz]

Iv just read on Fantasy football scout Digne took 5 corners to Townsends 1 and Digne also took the only direct free kick.

[Spreadsheet]

Rolling.

Correct. Fbref has them on 5 & 1 CK's respectively although couldn't find the Direct FK data

[Maldini66]

Thoughts on Tanganga? And is Amartey unlikely to play now that Vestergaard has joined?

[Bob Newhart]

Amartey unlikely to play now that Vestergaard has joined?

Correct.

[huwdo]

Trying to roll but tempted by a Barnes > Gundog..

(With a plan to reverse this next GW and basically follow the Norwich fixture for a few weeks with that slot..)

[From4corners]

Jota Torres is on the cards.

[fantasyfaz]

Jota Torres is on the cards.

Seriously. Lol not for me. Jota all day over pep roulette.

[Kris_fiso]

I might have to get rid of Jota as well

[From4corners]

Jota Torres is on the cards.

Well I've done it. Wish me luck.

[Sutter Kane]

Jota Torres is on the cards.

Yeah we knew what we were in for with Jota...Silver lining could come GW4 when he looks very likely to start vs Leeds, if one can hold patience until then (could be via two consecutive 1-pointers). Hopefully he gets at least 30 minutes today and gets an assist or more. I'd take 4 points from him today, and non-owners probably would too! Let's agree to that then.

Rolling definitely for me. Psychologically, I feel better if I have two frees to remedy any 'situations' emerging from GW2.

[From4corners]

I might use this player in my team (i.e. Torres right now) as one to continuously rotate around: for example, Barnes next week, Jota GW4(&5), Torres GW5. Let's see.

[Resonare]

Rolling.

[thekitkatshuffler]

Hoping Gundo punishes the knee-jerkers who've caused his price drop.

[TheBigLewandowski]

Raphinha Benrahma

[dellboy30]

Either Buendia > Benrahma or roll. Seems knee-jerky so probably roll.

[Bob Newhart]

A bit mad to drop Raphinha and/or Buendia this week IMO.
