    Just got a lot worse as a few late first half goals have wiped out any clean sheet potential I had

    Same here (Söyüncü and Pope)…

    I am switching off from FPL until full time hopefully when I check later things will look better :))

    No Aguero, my decision to dump Mahrez appears to be a good one. Mendy returning is encouraging for Sterling as he will likely cut in more.

    The gameweek I get rid of Sterling. Might have to take him back for a hit now that Mendy's back!

    With City defence in crisis its difficult to predict Pep line up even more than before, moving forward I am thinking going top heavy with Liverpool and City attackers

    I'm starting to be convinced now that Pep Guardiola has an FPL team and bases Man City's starting XI specifically to mess with his FPL opponents.

    That would not surprise me at all

    I have been wary of getting in Aguero since Jesus complained to Pep about not starting enough

    Liverpool will have a nice run a fixtures (City game aside) from November going forward. You're probably on to something here!

    Many FPL managers think so!

    He had plenty of opportunities to get a decent score. It's incredible it didn't happen!

    Looks like yet another difficult gameweek for a lot of managers. Many will be hoping for returns tomorrow and Monday.

    Already made a transfer Jiminez for Greenwood, will bring KDB in for a hit if all well after CL game, Son is out for me Spurs are poor

    Keep in mind Wolves play Thursday. I'd at least wait doing the De Bruyne transfer for as long as possible.

    Didn't notice Hudson-Odoi got an assist today. That + 3 bonus points (!) came as a nice surprise!

    Too late Jiminez in, to be honest it's difficult to see who is going to do well so not over thinking it too much.

    Hudson-Odoi could be a steal if he goes on a run, he is a very good player I am not sure he will always start so went for Mount

    But you haven't transferred De Bruyne in yet, right? Unless price changes (or drops) makes the transfer difficult, I'd wait getting him until after Wolves play Thursday. You never know what might happen.

    I have Mount too, so getting Hudson-Odoi was a risky differential move. Paid off this weekend, but I'm not sure yet if he'll start every game.

    Took a hit to get KDB back, got him in at what I sold him for and gained 0.1 on Son sale, can't risk a price shift for either player.

    I am happy with my team now, I am thinking of ignoring FPL for a few weeks as my interest has wained a bit, the low scoring has not helped

    Watching highlights, VAR is a joke

    Then it's not that bad a transfer, I think. I've often lost out on getting players for being patient – and when not, it's backfired! It's the unpredictability of the game, I guess.

    Feeling a bit similar towards FPL at the moment. Scores are pretty much average at best, and no matter what I do, there's little progress. Still early though, so things might change quickly.

    The problem is how they use VAR, and the rules of "clear and obvious" etc. - which clearly doesn't work. VAR works much better in other countries, so the PL needs to do what they do in other leagues.

    Oh to have hindsight. Another shocking week collecting only 20 points so far, with only Salah left to give me any hope. Doesn't help that Aguero didn't play and he's my captain. And had Ederson on the bench.
    Ahh well, it's only a game. And of course, there's always next week. ;)

    The average is 23 though, so 20 points isn't bad so far! Salah might get something today too. ;-)

    That's bad luck! Didn't hear anything about Salah potentially missing out earlier, so this was a bit of a surprise.

    I was asleep so missed the build up, Salah injury was a blow FPL wise, looks like Ole has stalled his inevitable departure. Guaranteed he will continue to park the bus at Norwich which will be appalling

    Norwich aren't on their best right now either. Fancy United to win that fixture.

    United should flat out have a go at Norwich though they won't
