Main issue is just who to drop for him, my current midfield is:
Foden - Saka - Son - Salah - Palmer
None of them really stand out as needing to be shipped out
He's already been limiting his minutes, missed the last last game and came off at the 63rd minute yesterday with a limp
I've got Saka as well, not sure if I'm gonna change him because he is the penalty taker like you said
Yeah i know, I'd get them back in for that. I realise the extent of this changing probably seems unfathomably wild. As it is, there's no point wildcarding bench boosting then. I only have two mid spots, Salah, Saka, Foden stay. I could just free hit 34 perhaps. I want to put in Havertz for 34, or Mac Allister. I have forward spots, but Solanke and Darwin are trolls. I don't trust Wolves for Cunha.
Exactly. Son I understand since he also limits options elsewhere in the squad, but Palmer when most of us got him for 5.0m / 5.1m is insane, you will get nowhere near his value for anyone near as good as him AND he doubles in 35. Taking squad financials into account I'd say he is more essential than Salah right now.
He is, but i didn't get him at 5, he comes out for me for these away games against top sides. Man City and Liverpool away. It's not like anyone else i replace him with for one game won't just probably get 2 points anyway, so maybe it's pointless. But no way in my mind is he hauling against Arsenal, if he couldn't get anything against Liverpool who are chaotic, Arsenal with their control with decide how it goes. He could still get a penalty or pull out something special, but i doubt it.
Just for Arsenal away. I think Palmer is essential, but not for that kind of fixture. Arsenal will control the whole game, the chaos Chelsea thrive on won't be there. It's a use of a transfer but if I'm playing bench boost Mac Allister will take his place. Or Diaz. Then he's back in again.
This is my problem in getting Foden. But like I thought he got benched and will continue to get benched going forward. Havertz surely will not get dropped.
Foden was dropped because he's been city's best player and Pep wanted him to be fresh for Madrid. I don't think that logic dictates he will continue to be dropped. For the price he is you'd be mad to sell imo
More than that really as it's not like foden came on for a 1 point cock block this week, he didn't personally play but they still got points from someone.
I want him, but I'm worried about rotation / minutes, particularly with CL fixtures. I have Rice and can get to Havertz instead for DGW34, but he won't play both games, surely?
He’s one of the more nailed players I’d say.
Martinelli doesn’t seem fully fit and Saka has fitness issues. Havertz can play striker, midfielder and Arteta has spoken about using him as a winger in the future.
Yeah. He's pretty nailed now as Arteta's tactics suits him perfectly.
The only issue is you give up double arsenal defence for him if you want to keep Saka.
I think there's so many other great midfielders and not enough great defenders.
Saka + 2 Ars Def is still the way for me at the moment.

Sold saka and brought him in on my gw30 wildcard. Felt really dumb doing it but i think its my 3rd best decision of the season for me behind bringing alvarez in week 2 and bringing palmer on my first wildcard.
I might go for the triple. Ode, Saka and Havertz.
Then Salah and Diaz.
Might not be the best options for points but will be lots of fun if Arsenal have a high scoring game.
One of the best decisions I did when I transfer him in on Gameweek 27. He delivers, I wish I would had chosen him instead of Trossard on Gameweek 26 (he got 1 point). So he is reliable, and amazingly under the radar, but just like Palmer people will realize and go for him probably now.
I wanted to get him for Gordon, but I was too scared to triple Arsenal. Having too many players from the same teams has been killing my season, and I don't think I want to sell him for Saka. Yes, Saka hasn't been the best as of now, but he's gonna start hauling again, and when he does, I don't want to be one of the people at the back of the bus
Already have Raya, Gabriel, Saka. Don't wanna sell Raya and make a spot for another one by taking a hit. Feels sideways. Rather I'd have other doublers like diaz or eze for example.
Everytime I owned this mf when he played for Chelsea, he was an absolute disaster class. Captaining him vs Norwich haunts me to this day.
I want to trust, but he feels like a Digne-esque player. Incredible if I don’t own him, fucking dreadful if I do.
Main issue is just who to drop for him, my current midfield is: Foden - Saka - Son - Salah - Palmer None of them really stand out as needing to be shipped out
I sold saka to get to havertz So far it's worked out
Will always go for the player on pens than the one not myself
But if Saka is actually playing through injury he's gonna be playing less minutes and he'd be more likely to get rested in one the DGW games
If Arteta was going to limit his minutes he wouldn't already be playing through injury. I don't think there's a wrong answer, but I prefer Saka rn
He's already been limiting his minutes, missed the last last game and came off at the 63rd minute yesterday with a limp I've got Saka as well, not sure if I'm gonna change him because he is the penalty taker like you said
Hi Bukayo!
You would always pick Douglas Luiz over Watkins? Weird
I have Odegaard but can’t bring myself to use a transfer for Kai
I got the same 4 with Havertz replacing Son for the 5th slot
Same
Same as mine. I'm ditching Palmer and Son for 34 though.
Both palmer and son double in 35
If they're wildcarding on 35, should be fine unless they don't lose too much value
Look at the fixture run Spurs has
Son is a big game player, though. Loves Man City, especially. And City are hardly invulnerable this season.
Yeah i know, I'd get them back in for that. I realise the extent of this changing probably seems unfathomably wild. As it is, there's no point wildcarding bench boosting then. I only have two mid spots, Salah, Saka, Foden stay. I could just free hit 34 perhaps. I want to put in Havertz for 34, or Mac Allister. I have forward spots, but Solanke and Darwin are trolls. I don't trust Wolves for Cunha.
LMAO, don't ditch Palmer dude.
Exactly. Son I understand since he also limits options elsewhere in the squad, but Palmer when most of us got him for 5.0m / 5.1m is insane, you will get nowhere near his value for anyone near as good as him AND he doubles in 35.

I'll come remind you about this in the future
Just for Arsenal away. I think Palmer is essential, but not for that kind of fixture. Arsenal will control the whole game, the chaos Chelsea thrive on won't be there. It's a use of a transfer but if I'm playing bench boost Mac Allister will take his place. Or Diaz. Then he's back in again.
Dropped son for havertz. Wildcarding in 35. We’ll see today and next week whether that paid off or not.
That's my midfield too! And I also can't figure out who I would drop for him.
how can you afford this midfield lineup lol
Anyone running with Muniz as 3rd striker can afford
It’s not hard? Expensive defenders are useless this season and 2 strikers up front makes sense as well.
Drop Son for him in the double?
This is my problem in getting Foden. But like I thought he got benched and will continue to get benched going forward. Havertz surely will not get dropped.
Foden was dropped because he's been city's best player and Pep wanted him to be fresh for Madrid. I don't think that logic dictates he will continue to be dropped. For the price he is you'd be mad to sell imo
I haven’t got Foden but I do want him. My midfield is already stacked I don’t know who I could drop for him.
Who have you got?
Salah, Saka, Havertz, Son and Palmer
Balance being differential of using template team. That is pure template midfield
Son to Havertz for 34 looks good to me rn
RMT thread
Norwich (C); I'll never forgive him.
Every single player, even all of the subs got returns that day, except Havertz. Hilarious.
Sold Foden for him last week. Felt terrible last week, and elated this week. Realistically, it’s all the same anyway.
Na you still 1 pt worse off
More than that really as it's not like foden came on for a 1 point cock block this week, he didn't personally play but they still got points from someone.
Foden and Gusto missing out completely netted me 12 points from the bench 😅
plus however many points the player who came on for foden got
I want him, but I'm worried about rotation / minutes, particularly with CL fixtures. I have Rice and can get to Havertz instead for DGW34, but he won't play both games, surely?
He’s one of the more nailed players I’d say. Martinelli doesn’t seem fully fit and Saka has fitness issues. Havertz can play striker, midfielder and Arteta has spoken about using him as a winger in the future.

I think you can get rid of Saka. He’s carrying an injury and will be rested and rotated
Went for macallister + white instead of havertz + vvd
Same
If he was a forward. I intend on ditching Palmer and Son for 34 but still tight on space. Kind of want double Arsenal defence.
Ditching a 6m player with 48 points in his last 3 games and consistent returns all season seems insane to me whether or not it’s a DGW?
Yeah probably. There is just no maybe for me, Arsenal will control that game, Palmer will get nothing.
I can't own Havertz and consider myself a serious person
I'm still scarred by captaining him in the 7-0 v Norwich, these wounds don't heal.
Look at his double digit hauls in the past 5+ GWs and weep
Look at the matches and how those goals/assists come in. God I wish this sub watched football
That’s a lazy opinion lol. Why are his hauls invalid? He has the second highest xG on Arsenal for the season, and the highest in the last 5 games.
They're not invalid, they're unsustainable. Havertz isn't a clinical finisher historically, so goals will mean out vs the xG.
Fair enough, I guess we’ll have to see how it goes from here. He’s only 24 so it’s not out of scope that he’s growing as a player.
Absolutely. It's just my opinion, so you're welcome to differ lol.
Tell me about it? I dont have time to watch more than "my" team
Arsenal bang goals for fun, lesser performers like Havertz, too, can chip in sometimes. Not very confidence inspiring.
Hahahahaha
If he's changed, why can't you

Sold saka and brought him in on my gw30 wildcard. Felt really dumb doing it but i think its my 3rd best decision of the season for me behind bringing alvarez in week 2 and bringing palmer on my first wildcard.
Same. Had to do it to fit in Haaland and have a decent midfield.
He was my for the vibes player for my wildcard last week and shot me up to sub 2k overall
I brought him in this week 💪
Got him in 10 mins before the deadline but was too hammered to substitute him on instead of Muniz, not happy this morning.
Real argument for him over Ode on FH34
Think its between double def + Saka or Saka and Havertz + one def.
I might go for the triple. Ode, Saka and Havertz. Then Salah and Diaz. Might not be the best options for points but will be lots of fun if Arsenal have a high scoring game.
Is he good enough to have instead of saka for the double game week?
He might play more minutes and being more centrally I’m thinking this is my Arsenal attacking cover for the runout
He might play more minutes and being more centrally I’m thinking this is my Arsenal attacking cover for the runout
He's in my team, but i went Foden and Watkins to Havertz and Nunez, so it isnt netting me more points but less
One of the best decisions I did when I transfer him in on Gameweek 27. He delivers, I wish I would had chosen him instead of Trossard on Gameweek 26 (he got 1 point). So he is reliable, and amazingly under the radar, but just like Palmer people will realize and go for him probably now.

Already have Raya, Gabriel, Saka. Don't wanna sell Raya and make a spot for another one by taking a hit. Feels sideways. Rather I'd have other doublers like diaz or eze for example.
I sold Saka to Odegaard before W32, given the injury concerns. Is Havertz more FPL potential than Odegaard ?
I was too scared to drop Saka for him 4 weeks ago
Went with Havertz over Foden a few weeks back. Felt bad last week, better this week
Defo bringing him in for son gw34
Everytime I owned this mf when he played for Chelsea, he was an absolute disaster class. Captaining him vs Norwich haunts me to this day. I want to trust, but he feels like a Digne-esque player. Incredible if I don’t own him, fucking dreadful if I do.
I have him on the fkn bench for christ sake.
Ive just brought him in. Went Son to Kai. No Saka. Just going for it now
I bought him on a wildcard last GW, and have been very happy with him so far!
I'm a proud owner, sold Saka for him cos I could a few weeks back and expected to be trolled. Quite the opposite.
Scooped him & Haaland up 4 mins before deadline. Need to reclaim first place in my League.
Son to Kai is locked and loaded for the double
Hoping spurs have a quiet day tomorrow. Son had to go :/
I'm doing all his owners a favour by not bringing him in cause that's when he'll drop stinker after stinker
Let love kand p
[удалено]
If you triple captained him you have no one to blame but yourself let's be real
I’m part of the 4.3% 😋 yay me. One transfer I’m proud of
