I’d go for Almiron over Odegard cos he was scoring a lot before the World Cup. Arsenal’s Saka and Martinelli seem to have taken the spotlight off of Odegard.
My team’s looking a mess and I might have to do everything again. I’ve tried to buy all the big boys but ffp won’t allow me😂.
I prefer KDB for now just because of Haaland. You know if he doesn’t score Haaland will make one of his passes count and I’m not convinced Salah is back just yet. 🤔
Is Nunez a great option? I think I missed your analysis on him. Would like to know what you think.
I actually think this is one of the things that I like about him. Saka and Martinelli have taken the spotlight at Arsenal despite Odegaard having the 2nd highest xG (behind Gabriel Jesus) and by far the highest xA in the 5 games prior to the World Cup break. These are the stats:
When you look at the last 5, there's only one player here that people should be choosing.
I like Almiron too and I'm £0.1m short of being able to pick him instead of Pereira - easily found be downgrading Raya to a £4.5m or Danny Ward.
Ha ha - You don't want to disobey FFP - you'll have a transfer embargo and will only be able to sign free transfers.
Me neither. It's something I'm still thinking about 🤔
I think that he is despite his terrible finishing. I briefly covered him in my core players post and he's somebody is almost 100% in my GW17 team.
That’s some great stats for Odegard and he’s way cheaper. I think I’ll go for him.
I have been able to add Almiron to my seen and I’ve found the funds for Odegard so I’ve moved from Perreira.
There’s doubt over Mitrovic and I’m not sure if he’s worth having him in the team.
Thanks for adding the link to Nunez. I’ll look at that to help my selection.
It's interesting but I'll caveat that by saying that Martinelli and Saka's stats were much better than Odegaard last season
So that'll confuse things 🤣
The only thing to remember is that one of your Midfielders or Forwards will need to get benched every week and I'd try to avoid having too much money sat on the bench.
The way Marco Silva was talking, I'm expecting Mitrovic to miss out this weekend. He said something like "he's a doubt, we're hopeful for GW17. If not, hopefully he'll be back for GW18". If he's only "hopeful" for GW18, I can't see him playing this match. Then there's the 4 Yellow Cards situation and Mitrovic isn't the kind of player to hold back through the risk of a one match ban.
Well thank you for getting me more confused 😂. A really big thanks.😅
For now my midfield is made of Almiron, Rashford, De Brunye, Kulusevski and Odegard ish. If they have good fixtures I might not need to bench any of them.
That’s just more questions for Mitrovic. I wouldn’t be very worried if there were no doubts over Toney but it is what it is. 🤔
