• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Sam the alarm, the Premier League is back and we
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: have a wild card active. Jules runs us through his
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: new look team. We run the rule over arsenal and
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: the usual arguments in Sue and I almost lose my patience. Well, hello,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: welcome to the FPL pod and it's a bit of
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: a special one today for those of you listening as
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: a podcast. As I always say, when we do these
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: in person it makes probably absolutely no difference. But if
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: you are watching us on YouTube, Hello, yes we are
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: in person. Which camerage we wave cameras we don't know
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: where to wave.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Hello.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Yes, we are all together in a studio in London.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Sam Bonfield, Julian Laurron and Kelly Summer's with you as always, guys.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Nice to see you, Nice to be back with you
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: first time. Yeah, it's an international break, so we thought
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: we've got a little bit more time, so let's get together.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Let's chat FPL and Dundun, let's chat wildcards. It is active,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: isn't it.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: I didn't think I would play it, I said last
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: week and then national break.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: But you ever do it? That? Why do people go early?
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: Because this year now with the new rules and the
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: fact that you can roll on your transfer up to five.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Then that's why I explained last week.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: It makes a big difference because you can play your
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: world card now and even after that make quite a
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: lot of changes by the time you get to the
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: next international break. So I think, actually it makes more
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: sense to do it now your world cards, then next
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: month for the next international break.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Cass comes with a disclaimer. Everything Julian said it minced.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Me more than anything else last week, so I thought,
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: I thought, let's go, let's go for what was.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: The tipping point, what was the reason? There must have
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: been a moment when something happened.
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's two words, very easy, Mohammed Salah and it's.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Just as simple as that.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: I thought. I watched him play for Egypt and it
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: was great again, and I was like, really, I can't
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: go into a get with.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Fours, seriously without him and the team.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: And remember we discussed during the preseason and then at
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: the start of the season and we all are draft
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: with Halent and Salah and I was just not brave enough.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: I didn't like the teams enough to do it. And
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: now I just thought it's it's a must have. Really,
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: when you see how merch in for me is how
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: great Liverpool I've been so far that if you can
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: make it happen and get seal that in your team
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: on top of Hallan without using your worldcard, good for you.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: I just could not do it, so I had to
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: also play the wild card for that I fool.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I need to say something to you at this point,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: otherwise we're going to spend the first fifteen minutes just
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: talking about jus World Card because I've got so many questions,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: multiple questions.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it does make sense. It's
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: one of the highest World Card weeks ever in FBL.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: So a lot of managers been in like tools and
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: I think the most managers is that if you started
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: the season without Salo, if you started the season without Holland,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: there's that fear factor. I've definitely still got that.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: No.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: I think for me, like if I was going to
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: do it, i'd have done it at the beginning of
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: the international break, like doing it now with a few
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: days to go till the deadline.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Did you press the button Friday?
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: I think so literally, just I'm thinking about it already
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: before and then I thought also the price would have
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: gone to buy Saturday.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Now, prices are interesting.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: Actually, yeah, it's all about talent, you know, planning, talent
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: and vision.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: It's actually got notes.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Actually, look at this, that's more.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Notes than you've ever Actually the fact that he's got
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: a dedicated notebook for pl as well.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Now Week four a game.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Week three this is I can't fail this week, I
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: cannot fail.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, So there is a lot of wild cards that
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: are currently being played in fact as it stands, So
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: we're recording this on Wednesday morning. This is of course
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: the second podcast this International Break. You can still go
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: back and listen to the one last Thursday. Just ignore
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: everything that you all said, but there will still be
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: some stuff in there that's relevant. And at the point
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: of recording there are six hundred Why do I struggle
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: to read? I've always had this, and now we don't
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: cut things out of podcasts, it's even more evident six
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty seven eight hundred and seventy three wild
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: cards active? What time was that, as I've sam because
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: it'll probably have already changed by now.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Well it will have done. That was about half ten.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, and this is eleven sixteen live. That's a lost
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it will be changing. It will be going up.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: This Triple Captain's being activated one hundred and fifty one thousand,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: three hits as well almost ninety thousand and almost sixty
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: thousand bench boosts. But wild cards, that's bonkers, bonkers. There's
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: nearly five hundred thousand more active than there were at
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the time of recording last week. So yeah, it's going
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: up really really quickly. Before we get into your wild
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: card team, I'm just going to all remind you of
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: the FPO pod Mini League code because I often forget
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: to do that as well. The code is Q seven
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: y CO zero. Thank you to everyone that's joined us
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: in that. If you want to listen to the current
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: standings again, go back and listen to our last podcast.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: But come on, Jewels, let's just get underway because everyone
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: is screaming that they're smart Jewels. Who's in your wild
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: card team?
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: So I can't really remember all the good advice that
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: you gave last week on people wanted to play your
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: World Cup.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I just told everyone else listen back.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: You should from last week change listen.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: So the the idea was all about Mosalla, as we said,
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: but for that I had to sacrifice Soka unfortunately.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because you can't have Harlan.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: You have no snow attacker.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: So then I moved in. I can't have it. Yeah,
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: and I think this is fair. You get Arson's attack covered.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: It's pretty much the team I said last week.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: I don't say that Harry Wings, who have roasted earlier
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: on in the season, for why do we.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Know you've not put him in? It is just just
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: like just.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: Turn on my bench.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Not even on my bench.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: I think he would be with the medical staff the
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: road behind the bench. But anyway, you know I'll have
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: him there. So the dilemma had right now. So Anthony
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: Robinson has coming because as we said, the Fulham schedule
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: looks good the pictures. He's been great even in a
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: poor USA team. In this national break he played well.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: I thought, so is in But then I've kept Saliba,
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: I kept Concert and Pedro Poro. Uh So Mosala in
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: midfield has come with Semenio because I think, as we
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: mentioned last week, is on good form. It's quite cheap
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: at five point six million, it makes sense. And then
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: for my last spot with Wings and Rogers, a k
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: R nine who was great with England the twenty one
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: in this.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Going to get some points eventually.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: Though eventually surely.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: Right, and then Caro Mitoma is my last midfield no,
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: because I didn't have enough money.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: So but I can tell you this is my dilemma now.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: So my front three is a telephont three because I
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: kept Isaac and I changed Solanky. Have its for Solanky right,
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: So that means I've got Harland Isaac and have it.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: I can downgrade Isaac for a Joe Pedro for example,
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: or you and Wissa, which then gives me more money
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: to upgrade somebody in midfield for a for example. But
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: if I get Issac to Joe Pedro, I can even
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: get an Anthony Gordon. I can probably get to Kevin
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: de Bryn too if I want. So it gives me.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: It gives me so much more money if I go
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: from east Side to Draw Pedro, for example.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: But you're not doing that.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: It's very tempting. But I just like east Side.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: He's scored in game with three, he played really well
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: with Sweden, scored two goals in one of the two games,
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: looked really really sharp, and they've got Wolves away and
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: then the next game is at home against Fulham before
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: they play Cities.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: So I'm kind of you.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Could do that in a couple of weeks.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you could wait, because has got Man City and
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: then exactly.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: So that's why I'm thinking, I'm going to keep an
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: amazing front three really of Harland Eastside and have it
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: for now.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: I really like that front three run through it then
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: from goalkeepers, defense all the way through to forwards.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: So my body in gold with flecking. There's no change there,
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: there's no change. I can't.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: I can't let go.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Point five there by going for a scenario.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, such a better if you let go of that paras.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: No, I can't your parents much hard.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: That speaks Pedro Robinson, concert Fires and Saliba salah Me,
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Thomas Semeno, Rogers A k R nine and Wings and
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: then Harlan is.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Getting come on people.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: It's very similar to the same we discussed last night.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: You mention you gave other names. God keep a change,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: you said.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I said I'd go flacking who you already had.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I realized, my boy, I can't do that.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: You know. The one I'm tempted to make it work
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: is thirdy Up Brighton, the Turkish left back who we're
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: still being so good at the Euros they've signed who
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: didn't go away with Turkey in Slash Break to stay
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: at Brighton and everything, and I think he will hit
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: the ground running straight away. I would expect him to
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: start at home against Ipswich because that's a good game
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: for him to start a left back. And and at
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: four point five million, I think Fadi could be a
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: really smart signing right now. So this is the other
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: one with them Bomo that I'm like, Okay, I'll be tempted.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Is there anything missing from that team?
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: Piezer annoyingly? It's quite good, isn't it. I don't know.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: I would be tempted to just have one goalkeeper antime.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Is there not an element of you that doesn't want
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: the headache each week?
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Because I always find when I have rotating goalkeeper, I
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: always picked there on one to play, but then.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: Fleckan has City for example, and I realize full So yeah.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: But the I get that.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: But equally like, if you have a four point oh
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: that's an extra point five. Have you got any money
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: in the bank point one? It's not going to get
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: you very zero no, But I think having that extra
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: zero point five off of a goalkeeper would like in
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: reality from game week seven onwards, you're going to play
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Fleckin' every single week, like there's not going to be
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: a week where you play Ariola in all of that time.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: It's just it's just a waste of money sitting on
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: your bench. And if you said to me, oh, I'm
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: going to play my bench boosting game week seven, then
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I'd be like, well, fair enough, because then it gives
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: you a playing goalkeeper. But in reality, are you going
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: to do that or are you going to wait until
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: the new year to do it?
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: So who do I get as a four million.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: It doesn't, it doesn't.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I don't even know. Their names don't exist.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: And then you just go for the substitute Bramford goalkeeper,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: but don't make me say his name because I don't
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: know how.
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: To I'm going to go, I think for somebody really
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: good Joe Lemley, just because you can say that it's
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: a funny name. And yeah, but I think so.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: But at that point then if you wanted to, then
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: you like you maybe don't have to downgrade East if
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: he starts performing well, you can maybe get to and
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: by just moving some of the budget around elsewhere.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Metoma is the one that obviously last season was
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: not his best season, as we know when he got
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: an injury halfway through it. To be fair, but if
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: if I think particularly gets back to them from the
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: season before that who was outstanding and again bright and
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: Ipswich at home we mentioned, then they've got Forest at home.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: So back to back home game then Chelsea but played
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: really well with Japan, scored and assisted in both games,
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: came back. The game was early enough on Tuesday to
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: have come back in good time to play on Saturday.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: I would expect so.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: And you looked really good, like all that phone line
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: well Beggede Pedro even the mint Yeah, I he went,
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: Mitimi is still better than Minte.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: So so if you've got me Tim, I don't think
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: you need to worry about I know you're not worried
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: about am Joel Pedro. The reason you'd want me cover
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: you've got some Brighton attack.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: But then if you had Jel Pedro instead of Etach,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: you probably wouldn't want the time.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: Exactly. So Brighton will be covered with Pedro and then
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: from Mituma. With the extra money from the ETAC to
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: draw Pedro transfer, I can get to almost KDB. I think.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: So that's that's the that's the dilemma, and that's the
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: thing that can change between now and Saturday. No Chelsea
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: either in the so Nicol Williams, Sorry Nicol Williams, we
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: can't cut.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: So Nicol Jackson is the other one.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: But obviously the difference is still more expensive, much more
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: expensive than Pedro. So that doesn't give me actually that
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: much money to upgrade and Mi Tuma or se Meni
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: or somebody like that. But yeah, Nicol Jackson is another
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: really strong possibility because as we said, Chesse fixtures are
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: really good going forward.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: And of course you couldn't even consider if you weren't
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: going to consider Saka. You couldn't consider cal Palmer.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: That's too but I would, you know. But again Harland,
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: Salon and Parama takes so much money if you want
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: to keep a Saliva for example, I think it's too
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: it's too difficult, too much.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, good point.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: The only one could be Robertson for saliva, but saliva
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: I can't like he would literally.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: To Robertson now, oh just you.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: Know, yeah, that's possibility.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: I didn't think about that.
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think about that. No, I didn't think about that.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I would do that.
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: But Petropo is going to return against US. I feel it,
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: you do, I feel it. So okay, we see there's
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: a few things that could change between.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Now and Okay, this is the FPL pod, not the
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: let's move on now. Thank you for revealing that. Jules,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: myself and Sam a bit envious actually, I think, yeah,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: you really have the salad pick though there's a lot.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: I'm quite envyish Home to Forest is not in your
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: team right now.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: I would like to.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Defense mean that jos is going to start because Darwin
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: hasn't been away on international duty. I am like slightly
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: worried about that. Yeah, well it played, but if Darwin
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: gets to start.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: I don't want you to get Salah to be fair YouTube,
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: because that means you're going to benefit.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, you mentioned that the international break, in the fact
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: that Darwin hasn't been away, we have of course seen
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: lots of players in action, lots of players will be
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: traveling back, lots of pliers probably still haven't even played
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: at this point. So it does make the weekend very
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: interesting and will undoubtedly have an impact on our FPL
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: teams this weekend. What have you noticed from the international
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: break that we need to consider going into this next
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: round of fixtures and gain week four s.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think we always have to look at
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: how far they've gone when they're back, like Jaws mentioned,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: like Motoma's obviously been away with Japan, but was back
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: early enough. And actually really it's only the Brazil map
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: that was super late. That happened like early hours of
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Wednesday morning. So they're the only only team really that
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: you have to be overly cautious of, because even when
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: you look at like Argentina and Columbia, they were on Tuesday,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: so it's actually not so bad. But also the teams
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: that we used to worry about that with particularly was Liverpool,
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: and of course we don't really know whether it's still
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: going to be the same it was so with clop
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: your North Americans never really started the game that followed.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: But with Slot, will that be the same. It's really
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: difficult to know. So I think you just need to
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: make sure that the bench is as good as it
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: can be heading into the next week. And that's going
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: to be hard because if you've got Barco and people
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: like that's still there, it is a challenge. I'm I'm
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: the same, and I am looking at.
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: I don't know him anymore, so I don't know what.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Barko. I think like could could actually start to be
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: an issue for people at this.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Thing, start start to be issue because that's the game.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: It could start to be an issue at this point
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: because you are looking at your team. Now, Look if
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: Jossah doesn't get the start because Darwin's banned and therefore
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: hasn't gone on international duty, and maybe Slot goes, well
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: you've not been aware and give you the star. I
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: can't imagine that Josna doesn't come on at all for
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: Liverpool in that game and hopefully comes on against the
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: tired Forest defense and it's all right. But yeah, and
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: I think you know you've got you've got other players
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: at Liverpool Like for me, I get it, like I
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: want Salad, but you look at the two performances that
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Trent put in for England over international break and I'm like,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: all right, well I can't have Salah, but I can
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: have Trend and you've not got Trent.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: So I think have you have you done that transfer?
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: No, not yet, but it will happen.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: I was waiting for you, told us last week you
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: were going to make You're going to.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Do it, But I was waiting on price visers and
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: they haven't come, but he hasn't risen well, so you
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: were waiting for him to rise until it was going
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: to happen because I wanted to get through the international
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: fixtures ideally because if somebody injury, I got injured exactly, yeah,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: or if like if I'd have had urder guard for example,
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: and then you might have to deal with that. So
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: I wanted to wait until the international fixtures were done.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: But I would have done it earlier. If Trent was
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: rising and Vadier was falling, I would have done it
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: right over the last week. But because that's not happened,
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: I was like, well, I just wait that out and
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: I'll do it. So I'll probably do it tonight or
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: tomorrow night now that I know that everybody's fine. And
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: obviously Trent survived and got through that because worst case scenario,
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: I was thinking, if i'd done it had to go early,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: then I had.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: A wild card.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: If I didn't really want a wildcard just because I
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: bought in a play who got injured.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, yeah, we've all been there. I think in
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: terms of transfers, then the markets have been busy as
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: they often are during international rates, and it will only
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: get busier as we gear up before the return of FPL.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Schwel Pedro and Lewis Diaz are the most popular transfers
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: in ahead of game week for both of them have
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: been on international duty. Though with South American teams, as
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: I have been mentioning, that can be a little bit
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: of a problem, especially as Liverpool and Brighton both play
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: at three o'clock on Saturday. Brazil's last match was at
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: one thirty in the morning on Wednesday. Columbia's last match
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: was at nine point thirty on Tuesday evening. In terms
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: of transfers, out Isak is still being shipped out in
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: his drives he leads the way. Then it's Watkins, Socca
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: and Guardiol. That is perhaps a reflection the Jews on
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: people needing money for salad. Do you think like yourself?
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, I think again the Saka moved to Salah,
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: there's what two points something million in it, So you
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: could probably make it work with two free transfer three
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: free transfers if you find the right combination for it.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: Really and simply because Saca also has Spurs away and
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: City away in his next two games, which of course
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: our someone can still win those two games. Soaca can shine,
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: of course he can, but they can also row two
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: games nil nil and there's no writturn for Socaca or
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: lose boys games, and Soaka doesn't do anything. So I
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: can see why you can let Sacca go and then
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: maybe try to bring him back after those two really
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: really tough fixtures. And for Isa, that's the one I
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: found a little bit more surprising, unless again he's sack
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: to draw a pedro to free some money for Asaka
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: to Salah for example, which is probably the most likely scenario.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: But Issa scoring in the last in game with three,
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: as we mentioned, looking good, looking really good with Sweden,
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: albeit in games that are quite easy for a players
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: like him. Still scoring is always good, even on international duty,
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: so I.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: Would be surprised.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: I'm a bit surprised that Isak is the most transferred
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: out compared to Watkins, for example, who didn't go with
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: England because it was not fully fair, hasn't started well
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: as miss big chances right now, I would trust Issac
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: to do better than Watkins coming into a game with
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: four for.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Example, he did get that assist in game week three,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: it was it was pretty fla.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't mention it. Hoping over did I tell
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: you about leave Davis is a system again, Sorry.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: But he's got Everton next up, so we all agree
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: hold Esac because of the fixtures and maybe reviewing in
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: a couple of weeks time and see if he picks up.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: He's had a good international break. As we mentioned, they're
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Wkins second most sold, but maybe my managers are running
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: out of patients because of those lack of goals and Assy.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: But if they ever to next they've conceied ten goals
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: in the opening three matches of the season, are the
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: only team in the league to have conceded double digits
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: so far. It's brave to sell him head of that,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: isn't it? Still Sam?
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: It is, yeah, but people are doing it because they
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: want Salah. Like you only have to look at the
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: combinations of transfers that tells you that actually people are
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: only sacrificing the likes of be sack On Watkins because
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: they want to have Saloh or they want to have Harland,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: depending upon which one they went without at the start
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: of the season. But I think it is very brave.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, Everton defensively are all over the place and
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: whilst Watkins hasn't started the season well, I think you
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: need to look at that fixture and go, well, if
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: there's ever a time that Watkins is going to become good,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: it feels like it's going to be in this one,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: doesn't it. So personally for me, i'd hold them both.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: I get why you've held these second world card I'd
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: probably do the same, or they do.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: Just watch.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: Because he's been so highly transferred out he might drop
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: him price at some point, so then sell him and
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: then bring him back after the dropped.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: You don't need to point one. That's too much for Joels.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: That's what I don't want to leave to point one.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Write that down, Yeah, I do that.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: I'm not even sure what to write on price rise
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: what satied in out out in.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Because so he's worth point eight point five to you.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: If he dropped in price, then he'd only be worth
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: eight point four to you, where as if you sell him,
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: you've got eight point five in your back and then
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: like next day.
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: I just wanted you to explain it for people and
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: like me, who.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, right, yeah, okay, let's move on, my
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Jules write those important nightstands.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Actually right, he's trying to write something I don't think
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: he would understands what's right, quite know what languages like look.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: And I do need to think like this to make
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: sure I remember.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Even the YouTube viewers an't going to be able to
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: see what that says, so let's not show them the
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: notad Soca is the next most transferred out player, perhaps
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: a little bit of a surprise, because he's the sixth
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: highest scoring player in the game and someone that I
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: know I need to sell if I want to get
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: sealar in, but I just can't bring myself to Yeah,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: that's a large part of the reason Sam rat in
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the notes here. Do we think that's a sensible decision.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's ever a sensible decision to sell soccer,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: but I do understand it. Yeah, but his record against
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: burs he's obscene and gone. Just remind me of last season.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Twenty five points against more than he got against any
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: other team.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: It's all right, I know, I got to sit there
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: and watch it.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Well on Sunday afternoon, it'll be terrible, but at least
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: I'll have him, so if he does go off, at
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: least I can, you know, cry into my But then
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: he's not.
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: Going to face Ben Davies like he did last season
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: in the Dtenham Stadium. This is this is a doggie.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: This is different.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: I think even for Socca himself, it's a different challenge.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Are you are you a little bit worried about Arsenal?
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Obviously we don't know what's happening with the Oda Garda
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: at the moment with the ankle injury. Definitely worth keeping artists,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: he says about him. But also, no deck can Rice.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: In that game. Yeah, yeah, I think so, And I
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: think Calafiori should be okay, But I don't know if
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: he would start or not, because he hasn't been a
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: starter so far.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: In my draft team. I'd quite appreciate if he could start.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: I brought him in the drafts. I thought it was
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: a really wise long term move. Patients.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: I think the day.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: The day will start, he will stay forever, and I
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: think he would be great because he goes into midfield.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: He can get goals and assist easily.
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: So I think the day he comes on for Arsenal
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: and then kind of get that starting position, I think
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: we should bring him in because really is he would
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: be that good for them? But I don't I just
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: don't know how long it will take for Artata to
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: finally put him and start him for every game. It
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: could be Sunday, it could be the week after against City,
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: or more likely, I think you let those two games
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: go and you play players who've been in those fixtures before,
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: not like Calafiori, and then after that it's easier for
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: him I guess, to settle in and play then against
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: the two really the two toughest away games that Arsenal
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: will have all the season, aware and aware City that
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: it doesn't get tougher than that for them. So I
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: don't think I'll have sure starting either. Really.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: I just think that Arsenal one of those teams where
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: if you've invested in them, it doesn't matter what the
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: fixture is. They are, in FPL terms, fixture proof, like
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: if it's the same as like the city and the
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: same city, it's the same as Liverpool. Like if you
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: spend that level of budget on a player, that's it.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: You're back in and you back them to score, whether
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: they are at home or away, whether they've got the
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: most difficult fixture, Because you're right, they are the most
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: difficult away fixtures, mostly because of the noise on Sunday
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: and the rivalry that's there, but also I just think
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: that they are the sort of fixtures that if you
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: want to be the Premier League champions, you have to
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: go and get something out of those. So sure the
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: motivation will be there and the underlying stats are there
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: for soccer as well, Like you started the season really
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: really well, and he is a big part of the
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: reason I'm not welld CD it because I don't want
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: to lose him.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Oh so I can understand when people look at the
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: next couple of fixtures, but then if you look beyond Angels, yeah,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: lesser at home after those fixtures, and then people are
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: going to be desperate these people that are selling them.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: By the way, Sleep is the eleventh most sold ode
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: goards the fifteenth. We have mentioned that potentially he's got
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: an injury worth keeping tabs on that one, and Haitz
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: is the nineteenth. Have Its surprised me a little bit
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: because I thought he would be an obvious one to
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: bring into the attack to cover Sokker. But people are
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: going to be looking at that lesser fixture and all
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: of a sudden going ah, okay, at least you've got
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: two yeah.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah. The thing I would say with Hartz and obviously
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: I brought him in the team before the the guard
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: potential injury is that if the guard is up for
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: the game on Sunday, Harveds could be dropped from the
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: number nine position, where it's obviously better for us in
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: the game in terms of him being in goal scoring positions. Yeah,
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: to a deeper midfielder road because you will have probably
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: in your party and then you need Habits there if
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: there's no Rice certainly and then potentially no other guard,
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: and then it's not the same threat from Harvards if
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: he plays in an eight, then if you as a nine.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: So if that happens, who will benefit in terms of
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: arsenal attackers.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: So then I think there'd be even more emphasis on Soaka.
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: To go back to the point where because I think
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: especially with our Harves, I guess can play there not
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: shore gabrill Jes's fitness yet And then you've got the
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: rhyme Sterling kind of wild card as in wild cards.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: Could he start in a game like this, is it
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: fit enough to could he play as a first nine,
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: potentially more likely as a left winger, And then even
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: for us in the game, I think Sterling a bit
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: like Sancho or Chelsea is just the name. Talking about
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: new signings player we haven't seen yet in the new
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: team we mentioned thirty before. You can go to Lacquas
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: Crystal Palace and Katya with Palace, Warprowse with Forest, those
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: guys that we haven't seen yet really with their teams
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: because of when the transfer was so late, but that
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: we need to keep an eye on. And what if
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: Sterling was to have a great role somehow somewhere in
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: the game on Sunday for example.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, so sell Arsenal, but because actually don't sell, and
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: if you're going to, you just need to be very aware,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: don't you Sam of maybe having a long term plan
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: and keeping cover if you can't get to soccer, is
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: it about keeping covering some other capacity?
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think if you want to, if you
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: want to be really brave and do the next two
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: weeks because it's Spurs in their man city without them, fine,
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: but be aware of the fixture from game week six
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: and know that when you hit game week six you
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: have to have a plan. Now it might be to
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: do what yours is doing, and that's to have the transfers.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, hopefully you don't get any injuries.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Now and have the transfer you're going to You're trying
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: to bank all of your transfers.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: This plan.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: It's all about talent vision. But unless you've got an injury,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: then that's fine, right, But if you if you, if
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: you can, then you just need a plan. You need
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: some transfers in the bank. You need to know come
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: game week six, who am I sacrificing and how am
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: I investing in Arsenal, because there's absolutely no way that
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: you want to go from game week six onwards without
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: having Arsenal players in. So if you want soccer in
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: and your wild carding at the moment, work out what
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: the strategy is going to be. Because obviously, for me,
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: if I took him out right now to buy Salah,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I could World Card in six. And that's what a
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: lot of people are.
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: Going to do.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: They're going to World Card in six to bring in
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: Arsenal assets. I've already got to so I probably won't.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: I'll probably just play through it if possible. But I
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: think that is something to be really mindful of, is
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: you just have to have some sort of plan and
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: know how you get in the budget.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, that was a good little arsenal chat. Then you
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: know what time is it is? Now we should we
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: should cut that because do you know what time it is?
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: It's time to talk about arsenal? She was dogging.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: No, no, we've done the arsenal. You know what it's
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: time to do.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: It's a differential time the end, okay for those of you.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: The radio silence then, Also because Sam has just put
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: her head in her hands, Sam do a little update.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: But he was just moaning before we went on.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: I just would like to appear moaning to the decision.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: No, you can't appeal because at the end of two
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: that pod, Kelly specifically said, George, you can only have one.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Who do you remember?
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Side you said?
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: Because like you know, I was about to go to
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: the beach, and then I thought, I thought, I said semenial,
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: but maybe would you like sure, can we play it
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: produ Okay? Maybe I said, he.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: Will be maybe no hundred per anyway, but I'd have
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: to go back and listen.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: I think I deserved at least a few more points.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Of us already.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Come back.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Somebody has to referee this.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: There is a vacancy going for a new host. I'm done,
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: I'm out of here. I didn't also speak when I
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: walked out the door, and guys, producer Jesse couldn't be
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: here today because he's on holiday. The rest of us
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: had to be here in person. Apparently doesn't apply to him,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: so fine, But he did tell me before the podcast
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: that I was not allowed to accept to from you.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I was also not allowed to accept any arguments. So
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: if we could just leap stop us arguing one person?
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Who did Jewels actually go with last week?
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: Sam?
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Don't interrupt Jeels? He went with a waby and you
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: went with inmo?
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: How did I be?
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: Do you got to.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Do six?
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: Did I?
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: He got fourteen?
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: What does that mean? That means it means for me?
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: Didn't you mention another name as well?
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: He was my backup?
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: He was?
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: So yes, okay, firstly with you men, a good pick.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: He's actually made it into your wild card team. Yeah yeah,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: well done yourself. Yeah yeah, but didn't back himself enough
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: to actually pick pick him.
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: Anyway? Yeah yeah, I could have.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: So that's how you went with last week? Who are
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: you guying with this week?
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: Nicole Jackson, Nicole Williams if you want to call him
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: at this stage, I'm not for anymore. Seven for six millions,
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: so he's a bit expensive compared to another forward if
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: you want, owned by six point one percent of the manager.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: So far back to back return now from him, and yes,
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: I know he misses a lot of chances. I know
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: that it's not always the best in terms of positioning
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: and in his own game, but it seems in good
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: form they've got with away Chelsea. And as we've mentioned
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: as well, it's not just for this week with the
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: Chelsea asset, like Nico, it's also for the few games
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: to come. So he's got good starts overall. It's at
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: the ball, a lot in the box. He's got a
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: lot of shots and everything. Yet he's not clinical enough.
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: But we know that, so be ready for a bit
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: of a roller coaster if you bring him into your team,
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: or if you already have him, if you're the six
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: person of him, because he's going to be really.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Frustrating because he's looking straight, chancing to each other. Whereas
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: just like, no, listen to me.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: It's like to be president or something.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: It's just like I know how.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Jackson, don't listen to them to just go for a
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: nickel Williams or not the nickel was Burg.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: If you like, because you remember me talking about my
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: friend that brought in the wrong jotter, you.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Don't mean you can't bring in the other two around
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: in the race.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: So Nicole Jackson for me, Okay, thank you very much.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Sam.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: I didn't have him as any of mine. So she's delighted,
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: I know, right, And I've got Andy Robertson, Okay this week,
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: come stop moaning six.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: Any other world class player like no, because.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: What she's done there, I'm not taking sides, but Trent
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: is the one that we're all talking about.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: She's given is not under ten percent.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: No, no, But what I'm saying is then she's looked
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: and found someone else that is lesser an alternative. It's
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: a very useful tip.
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: For manager have it or something who was like nine
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: point eight percent and it's got to be okay, Sorry,
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: and Robertson.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I'm going to ask produce Jesse to find out how
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: many people switch off at this point in the pot,
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: because if I want to walk out, there's a lot
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: of people.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: Know exactly where I'm coming from.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Anyway, you go, Andy Robertson, He's going to face Forest
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: and who they've beaten in all of the last three
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: Premier League matches between them in that time. Liverpool's called
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: seven gals they kept too clean sheet and Robbo's also
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: got an assist in that time in those matches. He
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: started the season with three consecutive clean sheets. Obviously, most
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: people are going to look at Trent, but if you
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: can't afford Trent, then Robertson's a decent option and they're
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: the only team in the league that have so far
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: kept those three cleans. He's also had two attempts on goal,
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: both of them coming from inside the box and one
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: of them's a big chance. Created five chances for the
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Liverpool teammates. Only Trent has created more chances than that Liverpool.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: So I think if you are struggling to get a
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Liverpool defender because you can't afford Trent, then I really
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: like the robbover. I think the way that they're playing
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: is good. Eighteen crosses so far more than any other defender.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: He's going to get some attacking returns and there should
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: be plenty of clean sheets.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: So why are you not going with him them? Why
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: are you going for Trent instead?
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Because I can afford Trent, and I think that you
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: can afford because the way that Liverpool are playing. Trent
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: is the most attacking and has the set piece threat
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: as well, which Robbo doesn't have. But at six million
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: and as a differential in the game, you can go
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: for Robertson and have good pick from me Liverpool basically
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: the Liverpool attack but with a defender.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: But you've not got any Liverpool defense in.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: Your worldco No, but Robertson is definitely a good chart
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: as we said, if you want to move Pedro out
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: for example, for Robertson or even Saliba, considering again the
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: two games against Spurs and City both aware where Arsenal
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: can get clean sheets in both. But I think it's
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: still very like we are very unlikely then Robertson for Saliba,
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: even just for now, even just for the next two weeks,
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: if you prefer, then I think it's a good idea to.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Bring it back to the Semeno conversation because we did
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: mention him on your world card, Sam, we had a
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: mill smith Row. You've still got a mellsmith Row at
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: me correct. Yeah, don't are very happy about Jos and I.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: I'm the five point five million midfielder club because I've
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: also got Morgan Rodgers who Joels has also got. If
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: we're looking in that price bracket before, maybe those two
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: would have been head and shoulders above maybe the likes
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: of Semnia. But would you now say you're looking for
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: a five point five point six million midfielder, semno is
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: the best option?
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's up there. Definitely, There's him, There's Minta.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: I think those two are probably probably the standouts. Maybe
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: a Nana as well. At Aston Video's putting his hand
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: on to be kind of considered. I think put him
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: in my draft this week. He's the same price as Rogers.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: As you can tell, I'm taking draft series.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: You're enjoying your draft game this year of that lake,
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: it's quite nice.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: I think that there's a bit of a changing of
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: for God in that five and a half bracket in
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: terms of like we've got. And that's why game Week's
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: three game, we four game with five they're really useful
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: for us because you start to get an understanding of
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: the teams in good form, the players in good form,
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: the positions that they're going to take in the pitch,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: and where they're going to play for those teams. So yeah,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: I think so. I think Semno is looking like a
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: really really nice option right now.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: It's also a really nice price bracket this year because
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: there are some nice options in there, and it's a
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: price bracket we need to look in. Maybe in previous
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: years we'd have looked at six point five as being
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: our cheaper midfielder, but now with this whole Salah Harland conundrum,
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: it's not mused to have those options, isn't it yours?
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: And you must have you must have kind of not
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: had a headache, But it's nice to have a few
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: options to pick from.
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: Me.
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: You're right, and you look and if you can't afford
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: the menu. For example, justin Clover has done quite well.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: At five point four, you've got a Jacob Murphy who okay,
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: it's probably more of a sot.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Thought it was going to be better than he was.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, very good and he might His entrance against Spurs
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: was was decisive and really good.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Had him on my draft, but I sold him for.
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: Is another one done? Great?
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Yea?
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: If you like sold him?
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Is that the word you use in draft? Yeah? Okay,
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: good transaction, isn't it? Yeah?
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: But yeah, like that, I think there's really some good
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: options that you can find around that price of the
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: between five to one and five five. Really, if you've
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: got he.
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: Will be that's we go there again from Biden.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: If you're going for me Toma and if you prefer
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: ding right to mint it this is also possible. So yeah,
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: there's a there's a lot of really really good options
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: that you can get.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's move on then to transfers and captain's best
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: of luck, I should say, with your differentials, please can
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: there be no arguments next week? That's like, yeah, transfers
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: and captains then obviously last week was more of an overview.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: We didn't have this section, but it is just a
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: few days until game week four resumes. Who are going
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: with Well, for captain you've got It's going to be hard,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: isn't it for us?
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: This week? Ye?
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Because if you have Salah, you captain Seala right, yeah,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: your captain in my so it's.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: Him or Harland home to Branford. Really, but yeah, I
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: think Sala against Forest it is probably really terrified about that.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: I'm terrified about it. But there will be people that
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: don't have Harland as well, and also at least Harland
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: has a nice fixture. Imagine if Harland was going away
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: to Arsenal and.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: Halen is back to back.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: Though he could not against Time with Norway which was
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: really bad and he was bad. Then you got.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: Against Austria on Tuesday.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: My point is, I think we'd feel a lot worse
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: about it if Harle had a different fixture, having Brentford
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: at home. It could be it could be a trip
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: to Arsenal.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, he is still only forty two percent owned,
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: so it's not like he's owned by seventy percent of
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: the game Salah, And I think that's the other thing
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: that in previous seasons, like if you didn't have Salah,
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: it really hurts. This is going to hurt, but as
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: long as Harlan does as well, it's going to cover itself.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, obviously I'd rather be in a position where
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: I've got both.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Of them, but that's a headache as well. But I
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: think I think you'll go Salah.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: It could be Bey because he'll want to be different
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: to us. Yeah, and he knows we don't have Salad.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: If you if you can men differential, yeah, I mean
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: I think there are other options though this week, like
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: if you if you are one of those people that's
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: options gone without any of Salo, I mean Salo and
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Harlan and the standouts. But if you're brave, like you've
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: got Parma, who has got a relatively nice fixture, you've
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: got Choppins, who's got a nice fixture like there are
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: rather options that you could.
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: Go to Pedro, home to Ipswich if he plays, because
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: again and he played forty five minutes on Wednesday year
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: the second half against Baraguay did did very little. But yeah,
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: so home to Ipswich for Brighton, it's hard to get
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: better than that.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: I'm going to Harland. I'm going hard, We're going holding.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: We don't have salad. Let's be honest, it's not a
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: press that is an option? Is he an option for
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: this week? If you don't have salad, does it cover it?
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: I think Lewis das is an option as well.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: If you've got Lewis, would you not wish you had
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Lewis ds rather than Jotta at the moments.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: Plays to play twice nineteen minutes with Columbia's And also.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's worth the sideways transfer of those
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: two if your wildcarding is totally different. But I think
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: if you're just not wildcarding, I don't.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Think if you're wildcarding and you were committing to go
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: without Salah, because some managers will still be wildcarding and
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: maybe thinking maybe it's to get Harland in or something.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know, and maybe they've decided that they can
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: cover Salah. Would he as be the best option?
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: Now? Trent probably can cover Salad to be fair in
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: a way, And I know it's still a lot of
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: money that you are committing to those two players, But
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: if you don't want Sala for whatever reason, going for
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: Trent and the ads.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: Almost I mean the as and trends. I know, I
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: those two players VI once.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: It's slightly different, but could get you more points than
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: Salah on a weekly basis, you know, So that's another
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: good option, even if that means that its actually two
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: players to cover for one. So I know, I understand
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: the unbalance of it, but it's still I guess the
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: best option really is to go for Trent.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: And nice option, but we wouldn't do it, you know.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: But yeah, just trying to offer up different different solutions
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: for people, I guess because all of our teams will
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: be different. Okay, then transfers, Sam, are you ever going
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: to make that transfer. Yeah, that's the one you're going
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: to do.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: I've got a hundred palio.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: I mean I can go Barcoe to Trent. I've got
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: the money in the bank to do that. I show off,
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: but I don't think I want to do that.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: I think, sorry, but that some upgrade apply the on
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: the loan, not even in this country to one of
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: the best right back.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: I could do that. I could go, but then I've
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: got more headaches and I think I'd rather keep the
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: money for later. I kind of waited just in case.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: So there was a moment where I thought England don't
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: play till Tuesday night. If soccer was to get injured.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: I had the money to go Soccer to Salah, but
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to do it if soccer was fit.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: So I've now and now we've got for internationals. I
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: think I'm just going to do Vardi to Trent. That's
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: what I've been talking about for two weeks. So I
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: think that's what well I am bringing in Trent. It's
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: just Barcoe or.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: I can do that. But I'm toying with whether I
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: go Vardel to Robertson just to keep a little bit
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: of money in my bank. But I don't know, and
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: also because I don't want to do exactly the same
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: as you.
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: I think it's a fair move to go from Vardo
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: to Trent considering their prices at this time of this season,
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: after it has been quite disappointing start from we did.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm doing.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, Jeels, You've made a lot of transfers. Anything else
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: you would like to.
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: Come, I mean, be Robertson could come, and then.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Maybe that Basically the whole of that midfield.
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: Is different Rogers, right, Yeah, Rogers are kept and the
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: rest is different. And the thing is if the Guard
• 41:11
  Speaker 4: is really ruled out by for Sunday, yeah, what do
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: you do? Then? Then Harvards as a number eight, I
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: don't trust him as merch, so I could go for
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: somebody else like a Pedro Poro that then gives me
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: more money.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: Them.
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: So has as an Ad is not as appealing obviously.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: Then as him if I had God's billed out, because.
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: Then then after that they play City and if the
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: guard is out for those two games, then I'm like, okay,
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: So then I do probably Nicole Jackson or John Pedro
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: and then bring Haards back from game with six basically,
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: but you need.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: To banking all those transfers.
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Okay, the best of smart me.
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: I'm amazing really my planning.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: To be fair, I'm a little bit envious. I do
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: really like the look of that team, and I know
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: Sam does doesn't want to admit it. Jules, you're an
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: Arsenal fan of When it feels like this week, there's
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of attention on Arteta's press conference.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: When does he normally hold his.
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: Yes, but I believe it could be today, even Wednesday, sorry,
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: Thursday tomorrow because usually we've gone lost, So yeah, it
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: could be as early as Thursday.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, we'll keep an eye out for all the updates
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: from that. They'll of course always be on Fantasy Dot,
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: Premier League Dot, comment on the Premier League app. But yeah,
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: it feels quite important. Whether o God is fit could
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: have a big bearing on our other Arsenal assets. Could
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: be good news for SOCCA, could be good news or
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: bad news for Haves. We'll have to wait and see.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: And in general, I always find I pay a lot
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: more attention to managers press conferences after an international break
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: because they might give an indication if the South Americans
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: are going to play and all those kind of things
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: that they're quite scary.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, this is the I mean out of an
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: international breaker is the one I always worry about the
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: most in terms of like rotation and things like that.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: So keep an eye on what the managers have got
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: to say and try and cover it.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, enjoy the rest of your international breaks, Jiles. You've
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: actually not been jet setting during this one, have you?
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: No?
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: I was supposed to go and I kind of had
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: a feeling in France will be terrible and they were going.
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: To tell you.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: And what about you? What have you got the next
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: few days? I other than sitting listening to managers press conference,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: I'll put you on the spot there.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: I will be listening to all the managers press conferences
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: and then I will go and I'm going to burs
• 43:28

• 43:30
  Speaker 4: You're going to be there, Jeels, No, I'm at the
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: BBC far Alive in Manchester. So that's a good watching.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: I can't argue with a football match as well as here.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: No one not arguing enough.
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: But when you go there in the North London Irby
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: they usually lose.
