Good luck ONZ but I'm expecting this chip to become a regular feature so like it or not...

I made a mistake and so ended up with two Liverpool and one Everton. Played chip with Moyes as my assistant.

The extra (player) assistant manager has busted my data collection and blown out my api request allowance for the day, so no updates for the divisionals until the end of the game week.

10 for Slot, a decent start
Unfortunately my resistance to bringing in Forest players means yet again I lose ground

i went Moyes for the double gameweek, can't stick with him though as there's no table bonus v Palace is there?

Going to have to wait to see the double gameweek fixtures now.

I’ve got big problems

I desperately want Slot 25 but I can’t drop Gakpo at this point he’s scoring left and right. I hold Trent salah and gak. Is it worth it longer term to go Gakpo to Wissa or mateta and have slot for gw25? Seems like an obvious 20 points w Salah away form and wolves.


Alternatives: Emery but I really can’t seem him getting a result with liverpools away form

Iraola against Soton.


Fulham chance at table bonus against Forest.


Should I just go with Emery and treat the Liverpool game as a bonus? Iraola could run up the score against saints.

Or the option exists to save the assman for something like Liverpool 30-33 but man you really need to double this chip

If you haven't already activated it then I'd save it and go with the TC on Salah if you still have it. If you don't have the TC then I'd probably go for Emery for the same reason many went with Moyes.

my TC is spent on Salah GW24, which so far seems a good decision.

i held gakpo trent and him for weeks with DGW in mind and then when the double double came and i realized i couldn't get Slot too I was not happy

I think you made the right call not to AM24 Slot at the cost of Gakpo/Trent. It's early to say but I felt at the time a bit too much was being made of AM Slot on social media by certain influencers. My reasoning is let's say Liverpool have an 80% chance of winning away at Everton and a 60% chance of winning away at Villa, combining both means Liverpool still drop points 52% of the time. Everton beating Leicester, Villa beating Ipswich, and Liverpool beating Wolves are bankers so I couldn't see how selling Gakpo, often for a -4 :!: could ever be worth it and that's not even factoring in Bournemouth's form.

But again...early days. I've seen worse moves pay off more handsomely. But I think if TC24/25 and AM24 Moyes :arrow: AM25 Emery does better those guys that went with Slot really can't complain.

Moyes to Emry for me. Annoyingly i'll have to find more cash but i think i can downgrade a Newcastle player to a Villa one.
