MY FPL GAMEWEEK 5 TEAM SELECTION | ISAK TO WATKINS? | Fantasy Premier League Tips 2024/25

[@FPLRaptor]

It has just been reported that Isak has picked up a toe injury which is what has kept him out of training. No update as to whether he’ll be available for GW5, one to monitor 👍🏼

[@hlomlahenna8186]

Thanks, do you know anything about Joao Pedro?

[@dyslexicmammoth]

Thankyou!

[@soclh6638]

That makes Robinson more appealing.

[@pedroalejandrochaconsanche2242]

He was my free transfer to EVERTON player Calvet- Lewin ,he's one differential player that you should look at

[@LvvLndv]

Got no free transfers left to deal with him. I might just play Semenyo and WC6.

[@occulus8687]

That additional money from not having Haaland is just sitting in your bank. There are not enough assets worth missing out on Haaland for

[@Matallica01]

100%

[@streetsiswatching9660]

💡

[@darylccc]

Gabriel i think is a start every week regardless of who Arsenal are playing. In tight games Gabriel is the main focus for set-piece goals aswell.

[@ManafMukred]

great content .. I bet bowen will be trending soon ... no matter what his data says .. he has been always consistent for couple of years

[@nickythehippy]

When you cause further ado and are unable to jump into it 😔

[@victorogechukwu3681]

😂😂😂

[@Sidd-YouTube]

Reminds me of last season... I was 4.5 million rank in GW 14 and ended the season at 100k! Ross We Go!!!

[@victorronandez5356]

100k is impressive tbh 👏

[@LucasSantos-mt4yb]

This team needs a wildcard.

[@Chuck_2472]

Upload just in time for the lunch break, great timing Raptor!

[@alijuddy5362]

Ross, I guess teams do not become terrible or become outstanding with the results of a single GW! Your midfield looks very strong even now. Forward positions are where you lack, an understatement! If you have decided to wildcard in GW7, I suggest you attack the next two GW's with the best possible replacements as per fixture difficulty.

[@Yotee]

without further ado, lets jump into it 🔥 question for u ross, u think a -4 is worth it to get watkins and someone like a vardy or dcl for isak and welbeck? appreciate it mate, thanks a lot

[@AlphaBet4]

My ideal 5 midfield man (from GW 6) is: Saka-Mbeumo-Bowen-Semenyo-Rogers and front three of Haaland-Watkins-DCL/Pedro

[@footballhub7945]

We were waiting 4 this so let's jump into it 😂😂

[@blackscreen3566]

McNeil, Mbeumo, Saka/Salah, Palmer, Semenyo. Just WC gw5, save a transfer then get Haaland gw7. If u get Salah over Saka cover Saka with Havertz. U could also pick Rogers+DCL over McNeil+Vardy/Pedro.

[@markconsiglio6613]

Top video as always Ross💪🏼. I have Munoz, you think I should sell him to porro or sell Muniz to DCl or Vardy? Cheers

[@paulvanrensburg7146]

Hi Ross. Salah/Watkins/Porro who i currently have vs Haaland/Mbeumo/Collins from gw7.

[@Blues_fan.]

would u field havertz or Jp with the xmins risk and coming off an injury?

[@cretella2010]

I have the same issue..I’m goin with JP unless I get injury news..can’t see Havertz getting much against City

[@thembarasekutuma7112]

Hey Raptor, great content! I would love to hear your thoughts on this… I don’t plan on making any transfers this GW so I’ll have 5 free transfers going into GW6. I’m considering just wildcarding and letting the 5 free transfers continue to roll over so that if I need a team overhaul at any point between GW7-GW19 I’ll have the freedom to do that without having to take any point hits on transfers. Any advice on this strategy? My current rank is 660K with a Halaand & Salah in my team

[@LvvLndv]

On wildcard GW6 would you have Salah on it, Ross? I tried having both but the team looks quite weak. I could try owning Haaland until GW12 then switch to Salah.

[@aleksaantonijevic7050]

I have both and Haaland, so I'll start Robinson probably

[@maximomgwadira1687]

What if you already started with Salah and Håland and have one arsenal in Gabriel. Isak, Eze, SmithRowe, Lewis Hall, Yarmoulik, Barco, Henderson, Robinson, Pedro, TAA. What would you recommend?

[@martinwsavill444]

Thoughts on Ipswich defender Davis? They have good fixtures next 4 plus games and he’s on set pieces ?

[@hmqlegend5674]

Hi Ross, I’m in a position where I can get to Haaland next week without wildcarding. But I have isak who originally is supposed to be sold for Haaland. What do I do? Because if I bench isak, I’d have a pretty weak looking team with isak going to drop in price. Or do I sell isak to a cheap striker and upgrade my 4.5 to Haaland later? That will cost me at least a hit but most likely 2 or 3 hits.

[@LvvLndv]

Rashford is actually an interesting option on GW6 Wildcard. I'm probably having the 5 mids like: Saka, Mbeumo, Schade, Semenyo, Savio/Rashford/Maddison. The last spot is tricky but I feel like punting on Rashford as United's fixtures are pretty okay for attackers. Ideally would want 90 mins of Garnacho instead, but he ain't starting so...

[@cheekster777]

Hope that you have a better GW this week mate. Thank you Ross.

[@will-j7e]

what are your thoughts on jota coming off at half time, should I keep him?

[@jamietulacz7742]

On the midfield options I'm looking at WC GW6/7 and also struggling with picking much more than 3 that I really want. Atm none are particularly standing out, maybe needs a few more weeks

[@MJWynn]

Hey man can you tell me when the latest possible time is to make the substitutes?

[@FPLArchitect]

Let’s Go Raptor! 🔥🦖

[@tytough]

Thanksgorithm mate. Trying to push back the WC to GW8

[@youngJkim15]

Hi Ross, thanks for the great content as always! I agree, I don’t think it’s the greatest move to go for Haaland this GW. It’s unfortunate that you don’t have him but there’s no point in going for him based on fomo alone. Last season he scored less than 10 FPL points against the top 4, so we know that in important games he can sometimes perform less effectively

[@jacobfrancis1226]

I wildcarded this week, could you make wildcard draft? Just wondering what to do about haaland and just save transfers to get him back in after Newcastle

[@dewuyi1794]

Don't even bother moving that guy regardless of his fixture

[@MaduOnyemaLucius-pp6ge]

Please I just started in Gameweek 3 would i still be ranked with those who started with Gameweek 1 or there’s how they do it?

[@aaroncurle5466]

I'm toying with the idea of starting greaves, over konsa. I wildcarded in 4 to get salah, wissa and mbuemo in Early, and that Defo back fired long term as wissa is now out till late November. DCL or wood now in for wissa for next few weeks.

[@jonnypearson3088]

21:36 my midfield from gw6 onwards is probably going to be: Salah Saka Mbeumo Eze Semenyo. Might look at alternatives to Eze though

[@AverageT_]

I would sub Gabriel for Robinson for this week Also I like how you mentioned Mbappe's name loads of times for the youtube algorithm ;)

[@roking567]

0:17 let’s jump into it

[@JoaninhoTomas]

Is isak to calvin a good trade to get palmer or saka next GW?

[@brandonvantonder5353]

My midfield will have Saka, Salah, Rogers, Eze, and Minteh this week. Probs going Eze to Mbeumo next week 👊

[@MrCJxD]

Hi Ross, what are your thoughts around keeping over 3m itb for several weeks? Wasnt the logic behind going w/o Haaland to use the extra funds to "cover" the Norwegian machine? Just curios..still the best fplcreator out there 👍

[@rickyslash]

If Isak is out for NUFC... Barnes will play on the left, Gordon in the middle and Murphy on the right. And if Tonali finally starts, with those passing skills, then there's no way you'd expect a cleansheet for Fulham.

[@R3dX5118]

I wanted to ask you this 1 question for a very long time... Would you sell sake and jao Pedro for Watkins and mbeumo

[@markgolledge9997]

I think this calls for a Wk 6 WC. The defence and midfield is OK for GW5. I struggle to see the point of doing 2 transfers before a WC. Maybe 1 if you have no playing forward

[@tonyb459]

Should change the color of the fixture under the players. That off orange/yellow is not intuitive with fpl. Go with the actual fixture difficulty color would be 1000 times better to read.

[@devonsims8244]

I think this is a 'do not lose' rather than a 'must win' for Arsenal at this stage. I think we could see a performance very similar to how Inter set up. For that reason I'd go Gabriel...

[@james.m1086]

I have Haaland and raya so hope they have 0-0 lol as I will cap salah and hope Haaland blanks and raya keeps cs and salah delivers 🤞

[@thereisonlyonesupreme]

Easily the 2nd best FPL content! 👍

[@greathands2754]

Who’s the 1st?

[@FPL_fomo]

a like just because you take the time to implement chapters ,content decent too 😁

[@dustybirdman]

My midfield after WC6 will be Bowen Saka Mbemo Foden (only if he plays against Arsenal) and Schade for a cheap option

[@ariellavender5348]

Saka Mbuemo Son Semenyo ESR would be my ideal midfield 5 to facilitate Haaland and double Arsenal Defence + TAA

[@mjb8128]

My team is very much like yours but with Watkins and Jackson up front, I'm probably rolling.

[@user-io3hn3lf4g]

My midfield 5 atm for GW6+ is: Mbeumo, Salah, Bowen, Saka, Dibling.

[@user-io3hn3lf4g]

I still can't build a Haaland draft I like - Got Watkins, Matetta, J.Pedro, (and Solanke on the radar)

[@user-io3hn3lf4g]

Nvm made a Haaland team I'm very happy with. :)

[@Marco_Liang]

Great content Raptor! How would DCL perform if Dyche gets the sack? Everton have Leicester away and Palace at home in September. Everton are under pressure to pick points and could realistically have 0 PTS come October. I feel DCL is a transfer waiting to happen.

[@sleep99PS3]

That front line. 😂💀

[@andyburton9733]

Bowen good pick too for Jota next week if you have him …. Think Jota might get a goal this week …..bit of a troll eventually

[@DANIEL-jc4us]

should i use my free hit?

[@peterparker_78]

Rather save it for blank gameweek

[@718awong]

I think jimenez will become first choice now, beside of his performance, i think adama helps him a lot as u knew they paired before in wolves with really good stat

[@nickythehippy]

Ross, as a fellow Muniz and Isak owner (Haaland too, soz), I can envision a week where we sell both and they end up hauling against each other 🤢

[@nihtinthomas]

How is son (c) over salah as a differential?

[@aleksaantonijevic7050]

Who to start ? Robinson, Gabriel or Lewis?

[@brynlawrence9554]

I’m really worried about arsenals attack without Odegaard. I’m thinking triple Arsenal on defence… massive risk but could be a huge play

[@jacobta1]

If you think it's unlikely Arsenal, Fulham, Ipswich keep a clean sheet - then surely you should pick who is more likely to get an attacking return - surely that's Robinson. You have mentioned previously, Newcastle are much better at home than away, so Newcastle playing away at Fulham isn't a great situation

[@henrik4088]

We have the same value of team + bank and I'm on 55k position without using any boost. I don't get it

[@CodPatrol]

I also like Rogers but I’m worried his first benching comes before his first return lol

[@fawazalkhalifah9236]

What do you think of sancho ?

[@YNWAENDO]

What are your thoughts on Mateta?

[@DancinJim]

Play Keane, Lewis or Greaves?

[@TomsIRL]

Saka, Palmer, Mbeumo, Semenyo, Rogers

[@fplgregfrost]

I think you should wildcard this week, pretend it's GW7 and pick those players!

[@AmoryYemeni]

Enjoyed this! idk why you get stick for simply just playing the game your way? loool it's comedy at this point dw you're not "washed" I'm stuck with Muniz and Isak as well!

[@Theone-bc7tr]

A Question. Hope someone can answer it. If I played my 2 free transfers this GW5 and then wildcarded.. will I get 2 free transfers in GW 6? Or one?

[@Yungpapz]

I think your WC cancels out the transfers made so I think your transfers will roll over next week as normal

[@Theone-bc7tr]

Mitoma or Gibbs-White on a gw 6 wildcard?

[@FPLRaptor]

Probably MGW

[@matejmlcoch216]

Also got 24 points was 10 millionth for the GMW rank

[@kieranclark7875]

My prospective WC6 midfield - Saka, Eze, Bowen, Mbeumo and Semenyo - current MIDS are Salah, Rogers, ESR, Eze and Sangare - no brainer? This is funded by keeping haaland, dropping Isak to DCL and removing Salah.

[@superrelax3019]

[@johncregg1159]

The problem with Palmer is that he is playing deeper and closer to the touchline. As Chelsea's tactics aren't clear at the moment, I would rather wait and see for that money. If Foden starts soon and picks up where he left off last season, Man C fixtures are looking good shortly. Just a thought, from another Villa fan.

It’s a safe beat for me …..as a free transfer…..I can reach anyone I want if he don’t work out …..I already have the rest of the big hitters…..
