After this video I did some tinkering and somehow missed that I am £0.5m short of doing Joao Pedro to Jackson and Enzo to Sarr (lol, good maths Ross), so almost definitely will be Mateta coming in for Joao Pedro if I decide to sell him! Will have to go without Jackson for a little longer. Hope you all had a great Christmas!
Get rid of Pedro Ross, Wellbeck doesn't look like coming back any time soon, and Hurzeler obviously doesn't believe in Ferguson. Pedro is pretty much useless in the 9 role, he is a 10 and is a waste in any other position. Btw I have had him for last 7 weeks..absolutely hopeless
trent played well, he got unlucky to not get atleast one return, couple big chances created hitting the post and also sloppy defending from robertson causing the clean sheet to be wiped
Funny how people see the same thing. In the stadium we were getting on his back towards the end, the underhit passes, the casual interceptions, the corners! How the corners stank up the first half, so much he lost them. It was so average.
@@GlynnParry-bs6xgI’m with you, Trent played one of his worst games this season, which to be fair, still wasn’t terrible, but wasn’t as influential on the ball
Love fpl, accidentally activated my free hit chip, couldn't cancel it, tried to make the most of it, but it lost me 10 points, so now I am 10 points down with no chip to use when I intended during the doubles😢🥴
74 points, advanced in the cup only because my opponent had saliba who dropped out of 2 bonus points to 1 in the last 10 mins of the game. Then i won on fewest goals conceded! Crazy
I just brought in Foden this week. Worst case he blanks a couple of weeks and I sell after the next 4, but he’s a great differential and looked great the last 2 games
Well Ross - would it be a massive surprise if Southampton got a result at Palace this weekend? Planning to play Gabriel, Trent, Robinson & Aina this week with Lewis on bench. I could swap Lewis for Munoz - I would then be playing a 5 man defence and benching Amad. My front 3 is Isak, Wood & Joao Pedro and I am benching the latter 2 after so many dismal performances from them.
Great video as always Ross! In hindsight, I wish I had not sold Cunha and not taken the -4 for TAA, could have done it this week for free. For this week do you think a 442 is good with JP and Semenyo Benched and I Play Robinson, Rogers and Sarr? I can also get in Munoz for the FT in place of Vand den Berg. The only challenge being I will play all 5 Defenders then and sub Rogers also. I already Have Gabriel, Timber, TAA.
Hiya, All green arrows thanks in part to your recommendation of looking at Huijens. I had him last week but left him on the bench - didn't make that mistake this time and inside top 100K!
is it worth making a goalkeeper transfer this gameweek? I have flekken who went off injured and muric the ipswich keeper and I would like to get dean henderson in with my 1 free transfer.
no it didn’t deserve a red card Jao pedro wasn’t trying to elbow him . He was miles from him and was just implying “ get off me “ with a symbolic elbow
I planned to get Munoz in for this GW but had to use my FT to get myself a playing keeper as both Flekken and Fabianski got injured, so I brought Pickford back in (I sold him after GW13 and he’s been a god ever since). Thankfully I’m not forced to take a hit to get rid of Bruno since I have a very strong bench, so strong that I’m used to seeing double-digit hauls from Rogers and Aina on my bench😅 nothing seems to be going my way at the moment, but at least Liverpool are doing well irl
Good luck making these transfers to your current FPL team and take -4 point hits to your FPL team and get huge points deductions from your overall points in Gameweek 19.
Hey Ross, thanks for your content. I have Raya, Ramsdale, Timber, Virgil, Gabriel, Greaves, AitNori, Sala,Palmer, Bowen,Semenyo, Gordon,Wood,Isak and JP with 4 free transfers...any advice 😅 please 🙏
Yes and yes- it is the last week to use your 1st wildcard and you will lose it, if you Don’t use it. After GW 19, there will be 2nd wildcard available to use until GW 38
83 points put me inside the top 100k for the week and put me inside the top 1 million for the first time this season - in the last 10 gameweeks it's been 9 green arrows and one red 😊😊😊
74 points this week into the top 66k, with 22 points on my bench, so a bit of a bittersweet week for me, on transfers this week Ross, would you take out Cunha or JP this week (would be for Solanke and I have 1 ft)
81 this gameweek, i replaced Saka with Gordan whos been super solid the last 4 gameweeks and Trent with Hujisen whos been solid (He has that arrogance i like for FPL)
My squad All stable option going second half of the game Goal raya Defenders Arnold, Gabriel, Gomez, Milenkovic, hall Midfield Foden Salah Palmer Amad Enzo Forward line! Wood Isak and Jackson
I have 2 FT as I missed the deadline last game week so still have Saka. I am thinking Sarr in for saka. I have Flekken and Fabianski so need to change my keeper... What do you think is best?. Swap Fabianski for Henderson and keep Flekken, play Henderson this week vs Soton and then hoping Flekken is back the following week again Soton, then from GW21 onwards play Henderson as palace have good fixtures, or just scrap that and bring in Sanchez 🤔
I like pedro, I think the problem was the number 10 for brighton enciso, he wasn't great and messed a lot of chances up with missed targets and not passing the ball, think pedro was unlucky to not return. The elbow could be explained away as not intentional, shouldn't be a red as too far away, looked more like just trying pull himself free, (but I am a little biassed as a brighton fan)
What I’m confused about your transfers, when cunha gets banned, who you bringing in? Pedro has been bad but his price is still ok. Cunha to Mateta later sounds better but I hear it for this week
Quality content Ross, you haven't mentioned Eze.. This is the best week to leave Rico Lewis where he is, go Enzo to Eze, or Pedro to Jackson. Or use both free transfers, Enzo to Sarr & Pedro to Jackson. Boom 🔥🔥
Bruno suspended now and then returning v liverpool (away)..... prepared to go through the price drop and cost you some ground on the Manager chip? Seems like a sell. Obviously Jackson may be benched
Pedro is playing every week (more or less) and is a 5.5 million asset. He is doing well enough considering his price. A definite hold. Surely sell Bruno for the next couple of weeks and take things from there.
I have Joao Pedro and are happy he didn't get the red for that reason. but it was 100% a red card no doubt. if he connects with that elbow we talking assault.
Im also going to the man utd vs newcastle game (first time in over 10 years). Also a united fan, but i have isak starting upfront and amad on the bench. Brang mateta in for pedro this week hoping he can be a differential and bag a lot of points with palaces great run of games, and if he doesnt do well it'll just be like pedros 2 points a week anyway 😂
Ipswich are stubborn at home, not easy to play there. why would Chelsea rotate their best assets while they're still in the race? I don't see that happening. goalkeepers don't need a rest and GK yellow is still very unlikely. champagne problems. :)
Howdy Ross 😊 im so glad i didnt go with Bruno , though i did try and go aggressive and brought in Martinelli and Jesus for the Ipswich game which didnt pay off 😅 67 points all up . This week i did bring in gordon but ive had Dubravka in GK for only 4.2 and he be getting me returns 😊 do you think i should hold on to the 2 Arsenal players for abit more ? Thanks for the content as always mate ❤
Do two things sell Cunha and Joao Pedro in your FPL team and replace 2 midfielders and replace them immediately please . Someone like Watkins and Solanke on your FPL team will help and 2 amazing midfielders such as James Maddison to replace Bruno Fernandes and replace Enzo Fernandez with Justin Kluivert.
The EFL Cup semi-final dates mean DGW24 for EVE + LIV is less likely because EVE vs LIV can't move to the Tuesday if LIV reach the FA Cup 4th Round, as per Ben Crellin. It sounds like DGW25 is the most likely
Dont think this is going to be the same Southampton. Theyll sit deep, play long and try to frustate teams. See more advantage of Munoz for the CS than Sarr foe rhe G/A
I've kept Amad . Not playing him this week but his on my rotation . If Jackson don't play or Jesus he will automatically come in which isn't bad . He getting the minutes also
I predict another upset in fpl would be when United suddenly plays well when Fernandez is not playing. I predict United would do well against Newcastle 🤣
I totally agree.. just because perdo didn’t make contact.. the intent was there, so I feel it so should have been a red card. Great for cuhna owners but he should not even be playing right now
After this video I did some tinkering and somehow missed that I am £0.5m short of doing Joao Pedro to Jackson and Enzo to Sarr (lol, good maths Ross), so almost definitely will be Mateta coming in for Joao Pedro if I decide to sell him! Will have to go without Jackson for a little longer. Hope you all had a great Christmas!
Raptor still on the Christmas booze 😉
Im surprised you havent mention high possibility of jackson getting benched sa we’ve sen against soton.
Jackson has actually been really frustrating to own, when I sold him for cunha expecting the ban!
Get rid of Pedro Ross, Wellbeck doesn't look like coming back any time soon, and Hurzeler obviously doesn't believe in Ferguson. Pedro is pretty much useless in the 9 role, he is a 10 and is a waste in any other position. Btw I have had him for last 7 weeks..absolutely hopeless
one week of owning Bruno and i never want to own him again
how do you feel about Bruno to Eze?
😂
Hahahahahauahahha this is why I never get Bruno lol
Same here bro Bruno Rednandes😂😂😂
😭same
Thanks!
Thanks as always my friend!
@ content are very helpful 🫡
Having a benching headache is a good thing Ross! The more options the better! Then comes the underlying stats which you love so much!
I've gone from 1.5mill 3 weeks ago up to 175k now. 78 points this week. 📈
I’d say calm down. A lot of good teams based off on templates. So id give it some time before I get excited
What possible could you have done to shoot up that high
trent played well, he got unlucky to not get atleast one return, couple big chances created hitting the post and also sloppy defending from robertson causing the clean sheet to be wiped
Funny how people see the same thing. In the stadium we were getting on his back towards the end, the underhit passes, the casual interceptions, the corners! How the corners stank up the first half, so much he lost them. It was so average.
Waste of 💰 4.5-4.7 smashing it weekly
@@GlynnParry-bs6xgI’m with you, Trent played one of his worst games this season, which to be fair, still wasn’t terrible, but wasn’t as influential on the ball
@@vcsl14 waffle, he played fine
JP incident was 100% a red card. Not sure what VAR and the commentators were thinking
I disagree . He wasn’t trying to elbow him . He was nowhere near . It was a symbolic elbow without intent .
Love fpl, accidentally activated my free hit chip, couldn't cancel it, tried to make the most of it, but it lost me 10 points, so now I am 10 points down with no chip to use when I intended during the doubles😢🥴
73.....8 green arrows on the bounce up from 4m to 300k in 8 weeks more than happy after my terrible start.
86 pts 900k rank rise. Trying to dig myself out of the hole. Let’s keep it moving guys! Best of luck in GW19 everyone
74 points, advanced in the cup only because my opponent had saliba who dropped out of 2 bonus points to 1 in the last 10 mins of the game. Then i won on fewest goals conceded! Crazy
Bruno to Gordon is a safe bet with the games and how they are playing. Pedro to mateta is good for pens and his fixture list coming up is nuts
I also want to get Gordon so bad, I've looked at him all these weeks and he's such a joy
76 points thanks to Nottingham and Bournemouth defenders. At 47k for the festive season
Lewis Clean sheet and an assist incoming lol. I brought in Foden last gameweek and he got so unlucky, i'm really confident of returns soon.
Keep dreaming pal, city are finished
I just brought in Foden this week. Worst case he blanks a couple of weeks and I sell after the next 4, but he’s a great differential and looked great the last 2 games
Is foden a calculated punt with fixtures
Well Ross - would it be a massive surprise if Southampton got a result at Palace this weekend?
Planning to play Gabriel, Trent, Robinson & Aina this week with Lewis on bench. I could swap Lewis for Munoz - I would then be playing a 5 man defence and benching Amad.

Does 4 transfers warrant an early wildcard?
Great video, Ross! Thanks for keeping them coming even while you're at home!
Thanks for watching mate!
68 points this week - Saved by my defence tbh. Already transferred Estupian to Munoz ahead of Palaces nice run.
Hiya, All green arrows thanks in part to your recommendation of looking at Huijens. I had him last week but left him on the bench - didn't make that mistake this time and inside top 100K!
Start Gvardiol or Robinson?
is it worth making a goalkeeper transfer this gameweek? I have flekken who went off injured and muric the ipswich keeper and I would like to get dean henderson in with my 1 free transfer.
Was waiting for this video. Hope you had a Merry Christmas Ross!🎄 Oh and would you start Lewis or Hall this week?
Thanks mate, you too! I would start Hall honestly
Me too
I need to start one of rogers amad and joao pedro. Need help‼️
no it didn’t deserve a red card Jao pedro wasn’t trying to elbow him . He was miles from him and was just implying “ get off me “ with a symbolic elbow
Hi ross, would you bench timber for robinson this week?
I planned to get Munoz in for this GW but had to use my FT to get myself a playing keeper as both Flekken and Fabianski got injured, so I brought Pickford back in (I sold him after GW13 and he’s been a god ever since).

Very tempted myself to go JP to Mateta! Do you think his mins are secure?
Yes
Who are your captains this week?
is double arsenal and double liverpool defence overkill or no? (raya, gabriel, VVD, trent) i wanna get rid of verbruggen this week
Thanks Ross. I'm tempted to do JP to Watkins for 2 weeks, then Watkins to Mateta. Maybe it's better just to do JP to Mateta to save transfers 🤔
Good luck making these transfers to your current FPL team and take -4 point hits to your FPL team and get huge points deductions from your overall points in Gameweek 19.
My team
Martinez Munoz Gabriel Gomez
Salah Palmer Rogers Odergaart
Isak(c)Jackson Jesus
I think I heard half the country groan when Bruno got that 2nd yellow 😂
Going aggressive on Bowen and Wood to Gordon and Mateta. Need those 2 to go big for me
maddison, kulu, sarr, diaz, son, bruno blanks. the most wonderful time of the year lol
Hi Ross, apologies if this won't be easy but can you do a video to help FPL Managers who normally don't use stats understand it a bit more.
Would you bench bruno and play hall, or sell bruno for gordan, play Gordon and bench hall. I have 2 free transfers.
I have Amad. Do you think it's reasonable to play him without Bruno in the team?
Hey Ross, thanks for your content.
I have Raya, Ramsdale, Timber, Virgil, Gabriel, Greaves, AitNori, Sala,Palmer, Bowen,Semenyo, Gordon,Wood,Isak and JP with 4 free transfers...any advice 😅 please 🙏
What about Watkins? Can we bring in for Joe pedro
Would you do Joao Pedro to Jackson for minus 4 hit?
Would you start Rogers or Enzo?
This season, I used three transfers twice, and it backfired both times. First, I used them to bring in Haaland, and last week for Bruno.
Is it GW19 last week for Wildcard? And what if we don't use? We will lose it? Please reply ??
Yes and yes- it is the last week to use your 1st wildcard and you will lose it, if you Don’t use it.
After GW 19, there will be 2nd wildcard available to use until GW 38
83 points put me inside the top 100k for the week and put me inside the top 1 million for the first time this season - in the last 10 gameweeks it's been 9 green arrows and one red 😊😊😊
74 points this week into the top 66k, with 22 points on my bench, so a bit of a bittersweet week for me, on transfers this week Ross, would you take out Cunha or JP this week (would be for Solanke and I have 1 ft)
Personally I’d take out JP. I can see Cunha at least having 2 weeks still before his ban. Against Spurs… looks very promising
Watch the video as he talks about both players.
81 this gameweek, i replaced Saka with Gordan whos been super solid the last 4 gameweeks and Trent with Hujisen whos been solid (He has that arrogance i like for FPL)
My squad
All stable option going second half of the game
Goal raya
Defenders Arnold, Gabriel, Gomez, Milenkovic, hall
Midfield
Foden Salah Palmer Amad Enzo
Forward line! Wood Isak and Jackson
Best Flekken replacement for long term?
Sels, Pickford, Sanchez, in order. Raya, only if you have money and arsenal slot.
@MohitRKNA i hv enough money for raya/allison
@BluefoxMedia-q8l look at the fixtures and see which one will suit you best. Alisson might not make sense till they get konate and the like back.
Ive just taken a punt and got watkins in, duran 2 game week suspension, hes gonna be starting and he has nice fixtures
I have 2 FT as I missed the deadline last game week so still have Saka. I am thinking Sarr in for saka. I have Flekken and Fabianski so need to change my keeper... What do you think is best?.

Your rank is very good buddy, I’m 90k at the moment and I only have 24pts more than you, it’s a tight pack
Cunia is a Bonus magnet too lol...jao Pedro i moved off on taking a punt on Mateta.Munioz n Sarr
What I’m confused about your transfers, when cunha gets banned, who you bringing in?
Pedro has been bad but his price is still ok. Cunha to Mateta later sounds better but I hear it for this week
Wood, Wissa, or back to JP in a few weeks!
Incredibly sitting at 14,000 at the moment. Thanks for the tips as always.
Start Iwobi or Pedro ?
Do we start amad vs Newcastle?
What would you do as an owner with Flekken and Fabianski 😭
You should get in Iwobi for Fernandez now, for the insane fixtures coming up
massive respect for the the goated🥚👏. enjoy the holiday
Quality content Ross, you haven't mentioned Eze.. This is the best week to leave Rico Lewis where he is, go Enzo to Eze, or Pedro to Jackson. Or use both free transfers, Enzo to Sarr & Pedro to Jackson. Boom 🔥🔥
Bench Rogers or João Pedro?

I have 1208 points, sitting at 12642 overall rank. Super happy with it of course but I missed out on Haaland haul at the start unfortunately
Up to 112k after a 75 pointer. 5 clean sheets from the defence and Salah captain
Thanks Ross, you convinced me around GWK8-9 to transfer Cunha in.👏🏻👏🏻
Love to hear it!
Is the audio trippy for anyone else?
I’m holding my microphone so the volume is probably just going up and down ever so slightly when I move. Apologies!
I want to get Watkins in… do I sell Pedro or Cunha? I have lots of funds spare (with Isak)
Cunha was handed a 5 match ban.
Pedro is playing every week (more or less) and is a 5.5 million asset. He is doing well enough considering his price. A definite hold. Surely sell Bruno for the next couple of weeks and take things from there.
If I was him I would sell Lewis

Hey Dylan just noticed we had the exact same gw points And exact same overall rank now !! but different teams
Every week I come here and wonder what you see in Joao Pedro, he’s only gotten 6 or more 4 times this season so many better options
Like? Am curious to know
I’ve sold him this week - useless and should have been sent off
@@andychristian2195 my front 3 is Cunha Jackson Isak
@tawedzerwazhou9951 I see .... Tho Jackson has been a bit off the boil but the fixtures are favourable
Well they're more expensive so i would assume he has a better midfield or defence than you @tawedzerwazhou9951
65 points 600k green arrow
Who is the best joa Pedro replacement with 2M in the bank?

Dont think this is going to be the same Southampton. Theyll sit deep, play long and try to frustate teams. See more advantage of Munoz for the CS than Sarr foe rhe G/A
i would sell bruno do u think hes scoring at anfield ?sell bruno and upgrade pedro next week.
After Chelsea dropping points to Everton and Fulham you would think the coach/manager would want to put the best team he has available.
Owned Munoz since week one when his ownership was like 0.5%, funny to see so many people getting him now
His ownership was very high at the start lol
@ no it wasn’t, mans trying to gas light me🤣🤣🤣🤣
73 points but i had gordon, dunk and ait nouri on bench 🤦♂ 22 points on bench
Why did you bench Gordon in the first place? He's a player on form, playing at home. That one doesn't make sense.
@ yeah, pretty silly on my part, changed him last minute on a hunch 🥲
@@mectic5149 oh well, we learn from our mistakes. Happy holidays
thoughts on Amad and Maddison?
I've kept Amad . Not playing him this week but his on my rotation . If Jackson don't play or Jesus he will automatically come in which isn't bad . He getting the minutes also
Hope you have a great time there ...🎉
yes love the spicy Mateta
I predict another upset in fpl would be when United suddenly plays well when Fernandez is not playing. I predict United would do well against Newcastle 🤣
It be like that
I ended up on 81 despite Fernandes red, Diaz not playing and Fabianski getting injured 😂
I got 71 points with aa green arrow I’m ranked 30,344 now ❤️
75 points and a win for the Wolves
🧡🖤
I totally agree.. just because perdo didn’t make contact.. the intent was there, so I feel it so should have been a red card. Great for cuhna owners but he should not even be playing right now
Liverpool concede 0.16 Xgc
Ross: If Liverpool continue to be a bad defense
Liverpool had only 2 clean sheets in the last 10 games.
In terms of Fantasy PL points and the cost of Liverpool defenders it IS a bad defense.
0.34 xgc, but i get your point.
