Latest / Draft Offsides Podcast / FPL GW28 Waiver Wire Insights
Transcript
- 0:00OK. OK.
- 0:01Moving on waivers first thing on here.
- 0:04It's an oldie, but it's a goodie.
- 0:05It's a Kieran Chip here. Shit, OK. 46% of leagues
- 0:09defender Paul injured the rest of the season.
- 0:12Oh. That's right, he's back in the
- 0:14weekly starting spot. Yeah, I don't.
- 0:16You obviously don't expect like previous Kieran chip here
- 0:19numbers, you know, but I think he's going to be solid and like
- 0:21new Newcastle's a solid top what, top eight team?
- 0:24Yeah, like they're going to have, they're gonna have clean
- 0:27sheets, they're gonna have good defensive performances.
- 0:29He's gonna have attacking opportunities.
- 0:32I saw him take a few corners today.
- 0:33Yeah, I think it's a good one. Yeah, I.
- 0:36Agree, next one on here is one of the best offenders of the new
- 0:40year and he's being slept on. His Chris Richards or 43% of
- 0:43leaks. Crystal Palace put it on a
- 0:46clinic since the start of the year.
- 0:48Only Liverpool have picked up more points in Palace.
- 0:50I think I mentioned that. I think from since the start of
- 0:53the year, Chris Richards is like a top 10 defender too.
- 0:56Yeah, and he's like only in, like it's crazy that he has
- 0:59crazy stats in the last two months and he's still the only
- 1:0143% of. Leaks dude.
- 1:03It was like the bed and rag. No one was picking up bed and
- 1:05rag. Because he's not a name, that's
- 1:07what it is. I got to go get my charge.
- 1:09I'll be right backside. The difference between Bed Rack
- 1:11and Chris Richards is that like, like Bed Rack plays for the
- 1:13worst team potentially that's ever been in the Premier League.
- 1:17Like they're they're in the running for the worst team ever.
- 1:19Yeah, where Chris was like that policy was like good.
- 1:22Like they're like what I said earlier, they've been one of the
- 1:24best teams in the league since the start of the year so.
- 1:27Yeah, I hear you. I I still think like sometimes
- 1:30you just got to take the name out of it.
- 1:32Yeah, yeah. And you think that the American
- 1:34bias is playing a factor in that?
- 1:36Maybe because everyone doesn't think Americans can play
- 1:38football, which, you know, is isn't true, but isn't, you know,
- 1:41a lie. All right.
- 1:44Next I'm on here, Jean Rica Belgard from Gold.
- 1:48We talked about them going to 24% of leaks.
- 1:51He's been a top 30 player since the start of February.
- 1:53Oh, OK. Total points scored since the
- 1:57start of February. I think he's only had one game
- 1:59that's not double digits since that time frame.
- 2:01And he has a really good, he just says like looked really
- 2:03good. Like passed the eye test.
- 2:04Like when you when I've watched a few of the Wolves games, I'm
- 2:07always like, oh, like who's that?
- 2:08And I'm always like looking and I'm like, oh, it's, it's
- 2:10Belgard. Yeah, Belgard.
- 2:12So I, I like him. And I think with Cunya out, that
- 2:15gives him a little more. Opportunity to be more creative
- 2:17to. Be more creative and whatnot.
- 2:19And I'm anticipating Cunya being for more than just two games.
- 2:22Yeah, he's a fucking idiot. All right, go on, move on.
- 2:26Next one, Eddie and Katya, 42% of leagues forward.
- 2:31He it's been OK. You know you're shaking Eddie.
- 2:34Hate it? The high.
- 2:35But I think the key is that he's gonna, he's definitely be
- 2:38starting with a few more games until Matata's back, right?
- 2:40Like Matata's not coming back next week?
- 2:42No. So he got kicked in the face,
- 2:45took his ear. Off maybe after maybe after the
- 2:47international break for Maketa, but at least at least one more
- 2:50game with and Katya and Palace is just so good right now.
- 2:53Yeah that I just think that it's he's worth throwing on a
- 2:56throwing on your team. And if you need him in a spot, I
- 2:59think he might be might be there for you.
- 3:01Just for a couple of the players that you said in national
- 3:03Braves, a few players coming back off the international break
- 3:05by the. Key one last thing I want to
- 3:07mention with about in Katya is that next game they play
- 3:10Southampton. So if there is a time for in
- 3:14Katya, it would be it'd be now, would you?
- 3:16Bother in Katya or Saul. I probably Saul.
- 3:19SAR from from Chris Paulus, Yeah.
- 3:22Ishmael SAR. By the choose, probably SAR,
- 3:26Yeah, but I mean SAR, they're both for, I guess they're both
- 3:29classified as forwards. They're both classified
- 3:31forwards, Yeah, but I think I'm going to, I might be looking at
- 3:34Chris Paulus players for this. Go for it.
- 3:37Go for it, go for it. I hope you have a back-to-back
- 3:39losses so I can just. Overtake had that I've been,
- 3:42I've been in a rough patch. I didn't.
- 3:44Need Heco to go on a rough patch man.
- 3:47Yeah, well he just straight away one of his best players by
- 3:48mistake, so there's always a chance.
- 3:51Are you telling me there's a chance?
- 3:53I hope so. Yeah, I what you were bringing
- 3:56up before the international break returns I think is a huge
- 3:58thing. So you mentioned Adobeke,
- 4:01Adobeke, Nicholas Jackson, Nicholas Jackson.
- 4:05There's a couple other players that are so.
- 4:08Soccer, potentially. Soccer, potentially.
- 4:11Martinelli's, I saw that he played a little bit again in the
- 4:14Arsenal game. I don't know.
- 4:15I mean, I don't know. He's probably not on waivers or
- 4:17anything. But yeah, most people probably
- 4:19hold on to him, but he's gonna be back.
- 4:21Dwight McNeil is still question, question marks by him with the
- 4:26the most recent. I actually ended up dropping him
- 4:28finally in our league. I know, I saw.
- 4:30The most, the most recent thing was there's still no like,
- 4:32timetable for him. Yeah.
- 4:33So there's only 10 games left. There's an international break.
- 4:36I don't know. I'm not loving it, but there's
- 4:38definitely something there. Yeah.
- 4:40There's something not there. That's sad.
- 4:42Yeah. Who else is kind of in that
- 4:45zone? I think a dharmatory forget NDI
- 4:49from from freaking ever earn also.
- 4:54And die. Oh, really?
- 4:55He's maybe coming back. He had a knee injury.
- 4:59And does knees though. He's running, so he's back to
- 5:04running his heart. His timeline to return remains
- 5:07uncertain. Jack Harrison will continue to
- 5:09replace him in the frontline to undo his fit 0.
- 5:13There was a couple coming. There was like a couple players
- 5:16I saw coming back off the international break, like let me
- 5:20see here. Yeah, I mean, so there's one,
- 5:24there's one where the round 30 happens and then it is
- 5:28international break and then we're just this is a home
- 5:30stretch, right? Yep.
- 5:32So I'm kind of looking at the round 30 right now.
- 5:34Oh, Chelsea, Tottenham on Thursday April 3rd.
- 5:38You know. Oh, I'm on the wrong way around
- 5:4229 around 29, sorry. And it's you know, I I totally I
- 5:48totally messed up. S Crystal Palace is not playing
- 5:50Southampton. Oh.
- 5:53Crystal Palace is playing Newcastle, so that's very much
- 5:59less interested. Very much less interested.
- 6:02Do you play Tico again? So I know I play Tico again at
- 6:06some at some point during the season.
- 6:09I definitely play, man, yeah. Yeah.
- 6:12Could I play next week? That's.
- 6:16Right. I mean, I need a win.
- 6:17I just, I can't even think about that.
- 6:19Me and you play each other at least one more time.
- 6:21I play you and then I play Tika right afterwards.
- 6:24Big week, big two weeks there. Yeah, I mean, I just need to get
- 6:27some wins on the board. It's been a very rough, rough
- 6:30few weeks for me.
