Luis Diaz or Mbeumo?

Post by NorthBankRedemption »

In a similar price bracket, both with similar xGi but those Brentford fixtures look marvelous.

Have only just bought in Diaz what do you think? Higher risk for rotation?
I won’t or can’t downgrade Saka Palmer or Rogers.

Who do you think will stay hot?

Based on fixtures, price, expected goal involvement and so on, Mbeumo is objectively one of the best two or three players to have for the next few games.

Diaz has some rotation risk with , and Liverpool’s fixtures take a turn for the worse. That is not to say that Diaz will blank. He won’t, he’ll continue to contribute goals and assists. I’d anticipate some drop off as his start is not sustainable over the season. So he may still be better than the 5th mid you didn’t mention. Or he may not.

Imo Mb will continue to rack up those consistent points where as Diaz will be more streaky, with more 2s (spread of talent/goals) but a higher ceiling.

I've had Mb since day 1 and will continue to hold (played every week, even city!). Diaz both came and went on the WC as I didn't 100% trust the minutes.

Going Palmer-less :shock: enables me to have both Diaz and Mbeumo, with Salah, Saka, Soucek.

The other one eating me is Esr vs McNeil

Might be time to jump off esr at nearly 30% ownership.

Is McNeil too good to be true?

McNeil played regularly for Everton last year 3 goals 6 assists in Premiership. Most of that in a short spell mid season. So if he's improved from last season the streak would need to at least not now go 13 games without a goal and only one assist as happened last season. 24yo now so could've improved as did nothing early in that season

He’s been a consistent 120 points for a few seasons but I read his versatility might hold
Him back as he gets used at left back w injuries stretching the squad. I guess w the back four healthy he is p nailed on in midfield

Mbeumo vs wolves is so so juicy but anything is possible for Diaz at crystal palace. This one is really cheesing my grits.

Mbeumo is the obvious choice. Diaz will be dancing in and out of the line up. Pain every week. Mbeumo, stick in team and forget for the season. The choice is yours.
