To clarify, my favorite non punty long term Saka replacements are Gordon followed by Bruno. My favorite punty replacements are Martinelli and Diaz. My favorite cheap replacement is Sarr. Zoph has made think about Foden too. If you guys don't like my opinion feel free to ignore it but I certainly won't hold back from giving it. - LR

I honestly don't understand what is wrong with the Gordon shout and people turned it into such a big deal. Good xGI albeit underperforming it and good fixtures from an attacking perspective. Newcastle doesn't need to win those games for him to come good. I don't know if i will pick him but he's a solid choice. Great shouts overall by everyone.

Foden's minutes when fit, recently: GW17: 90' , GW16: 90' , GW13: 78' , GW12: 90' , GW11: 90' , GW10: 90' , GW9: 90'. Not sure why there is any concern about his minutes... L.Diaz certainly does not get more minutes than this ✅

@speardropsКүн бұрын
LR, so you would pick Gordon (vs Villa then United and Spurs away) over: Fernandes/Diallo (Wolves and a Newcastle side who don't travel well - Fernandes on all set pieces) Diaz (Leicester coming off a huge away loss and 2 goals at Spurs) Bowen (Southampton and a 90 min talisman with form and quality) Odegaard/Martinelli (Ipswich then Brentford, no Saka for competition - Odegaard on all set pieces) Mbeumo (all set pieces and vs Brighton who are definitely weaker defensively than Villa) Foden (some form now, and a much easier fixture run) I'd pick every one of them over Gordon given their form and fixtures. Newcastle historically travel very poorly and go to Spurs and United after Villa. Gordon is fine but I wouldn't start him over any of the above, maybe Mbeumo or Diallo at a push. He's just okay if you own him, I wouldn't be pushing him as a top 3 Saka replacement, not even top 5 given the fixtures. Villas last 6 xGC: 1.03, 1.78, 0.33, 1.03, 0.82, 1.26.

You guys said Eze is on penalties, but Mateta has already taken one this season, and this was when Eze was on the pitch. It could be because he won it as well, but could also be that Glasner is embracing him fully as a striker, specially after Nketiah not working. Mateta on penalties does increase his appeal significantly I would say.

@@SultanSaeed_99 I'm not putting you off Fernandes, I'm just stating your pts since x gameweeks includes LEI and IPS when Man Utd are not playing those bottom tier teams until the end of February.

Liverpool are scoring more than 8 goals in these next three matches, wouldn't be surprised to see Man Utd score 4 goals in their next three matches. Wolves have a new manager and could give up just two goals, how many did Man Utd score on Ipswich away for instance?
@MDot97Күн бұрын
As someone with Amad, Rogers, Salah, Saka, Palmer, J.Pedro, Isak, Cunha there's a lot of security in all of my 7 healthy attackers (not Saka) and so I'm more inclined to "risk" a mins uncertainty with a LIV midfielder when those xG for LIV are crazy good. LEI(h) had NEW scoring four times, BRE scoring four times, MUN scoring three times, BHA scoring two times, WOL scoring three times with Ruud as manager. TC is active on the midfielder who's likely getting 2/3 returns and 2/3 bonus in this fixture. Lots of points on offer this gameweek, hopefully the best two teams in England deliver for us engaged FPL managers. Singapore is a lovely country; I had the pleasure of spending six days in 2024 there, very safe, clean and home to the world's nicest airport imo (Doha is wonderful too).
