    It's been a super busy week for me, and all of this happens in the meantime?! I'll sort out my team for this deadline, and find out who's won the previous gameweeks after the game updates.

    Here are the gameweek 10 captaincy picks!
    Salah: 8
    Haaland: 5
    Palmer: 2
    Mitoma: 1
    Maddison: 1

    With decent fixtures for both of them, it's nos surprise to see Salah and Haaland topping the captaincy list for this gameweek, with Salah being the most captained player in our league. The in-form Palmer is the only other player captained by more than one manager. Good luck everyone!

    Alexander-Arnold and Foden out for Aït-Nouri and Salah for me. Not sure about those moves really, but I needed to change things up a bit.

    It's been a busy period for me, so I haven't had time to catch up with FPL as much as I wanted. This also means time to write about the past two gameweeks. Looking through the gameweek scores right now, I see that Liverpool Richmond has had two great gameweeks, finishing both gameweek 8 and gameweek 9 as our gameweek winner. Congratulations! =D>

    This feels like the worst Arsenal performance yet this season, and the alarm bells should really be ringing. The title race is truly over now, that's for sure.

    Arsenal are definitely faltering at the wrong time, though it just shows how injuries to key players can impact a side.

    United had terrible injuries though the media did not seem to want to acknowledge that, it will be interesting to see how they report on Arsenal and City with there respective crisis.

    City and Liverpool currently losing...

    I sold Havertz as I was not confident he would get anything.

    In Norway at least, the media only talks about Ødegaard's injury. It's the most important injury of course when you look at Arsenal with and without him, but they talked about a "full strength Arsenal" as late as last week, when you had Ødegaard, Calafiori, Tomiyasu, Tierney, Zinchenko, Saka, Saliba all out, doubtful or suspended…

    There's been less talk about the City injuries here, probably because they are well covered in all positions anyway. More has been talked about and written about United; There are a lot of United fans in Norway though, including several of the journalists covering the PL.

    Spurs second goal to go ahead was a great team goal... VAR... Onside.

    VAR realy does suck the life and enjoyment out of goals.

    UK media are obsessed with United and love tearing them down at any opportunity.

    Spurs on fire ripping Villa to shreds, villa did well in the first half to be fair.

    3 - 1.

    4 - 1 great free kick from Maddison, Villa in second half totally collapsed.

    I expect goals in this game, 3 -2 to Chelsea which pains me as a United supporter.

    I ended up having a few beers and must of fallen asleep during the second half as cannot remember much about the game.

    My FPL squad is a mess I need a wildcard ASAP, I am reluctant to take HITS and somehow I am scraping points at the moment.

    Haaland not scoring as many goals as he did at the start of the season doesn't help ,especially at his price.

    Despite City getting battered yesterday Haaland did pick up good positions and had chances, City really should have been a few goals up at least in the first half, I will keep faith in Haaland for now. Though whether i will keep the captaincy on him for the next three games not sure, i will have to look at my other players fixtures first.

    He even missed a pen which is rare.
    I would like to have erling fc in my team but at 15.3 and having Salah and Palmer can't afford him.

    Let's have a look at gameweek 10 before the deadline tomorrow! Gameweek was a low scoring gameweek, where we saw a variance in points scored; only in our league, the points varied from under 30 to above 60! In the latter group was Mejico POWA, our gameweek 10 winner, scoring 63 points. Congratulations! =D>

    In Norway it's the complete opposite. It has a lot to do about Solskjær, of course.

    Cole Palmer -Knock - 75% chance of playing
    João Pedro -Lack of match fitness - 75% chance of playing

    This week all of a sudden I like my team and want to start 13 of my players because of the fixtures, I wont make a transfer because of that. Allison is still out though Henderson is my back up keeper so don't need to waste a transfer, though I think I have missed something... Edited: No I haven't lol

    Still undecided what to do this gameweek. Want to move on Calvert-Lewin, but that likely means (another) -4…
  • Posts: 17,821
    Here are the gameweek 11 captaincy picks!
    Salah: 8
    Haaland: 4
    B. Fernandes: 1
    Mitoma: 1
    Maddison: 1
    Vardy: 1
    Isak: 1

    Salah is again the most captained player in our league, backed by eight managers in our league. Haaland is the only other player captained by more than one manager, picked by four managers. Good luck everyone!

    Ended up doing Calvert-Lewin > Strand Larsen in the end. Ideally I'd pick Cunha, but I didn't have the funds. Can only hope SL and the funds saved can make up for the upside of owning Cunha.
