Wildcarded myself. Similar draft as most, but went Salah + Havertz instead of the more popular Saka + Diaz or no LFC attacker at all. As an LFC fan I can’t in good conscience pick Diaz when we have 3 left wingers. I’m banking on many regretting selling Salah and having a hard time going back to him. We’ll see how it goes. We definitely have gone back to an attacking approach that favors wide forwards over our n9 so Diaz might end up being a season keeper, but I find it too early to tell and easier to get to him than to Mo if I made the wrong choice.
That't true. As a LFC fan it's hard to pick Diaz as we know how he played last seasons and how many wingers we have. But still the fixtures are so good that i plan to get him on WC and then probably in gw8 change him for Maddison - Diaz gets harder fixtures and Spurs get easier one. Hope I won't regret :) BTW after the WC i will have 2 ft, so my plan is to roll the transfer in gw7 and have 3 ft in gw8.
Double Spurs attack is brave, but always looks good on paper! I think I'm finished with them, too inconsistent and don't enjoy relying on them every week! Hope it works out for you though!
Henderson Konsa - Robinson - Porro (Hall, Barco) Saka - ESR - Rogers - Jota - Mbuemo Haaland - Havertz - Isak 1.4 ITB thinking about Isak -> Solanke, than Im gonna have 6.6 ITB. Best replacement for Hall ? Gabriel, Lewis, Liverpool defence or someone else ?
Went to see City v Watford last night and Lewis was immense Playing in a pivot role which I think could be the solution now Rodri is injured. He was so high at some points and got involved with a lot of attacking threat I reckon I’m bringing him in too
Brought in Maddison on a wildcard as well! I can get to Diaz, but thinking he's not going to keep this form up and might be a rotation risk. Maddison will probably blank and Diaz will score a hat trick this weekend! 😂
@@FPLFocal What do you think of Dibling as a £4.5 enabler to get both? If I downgrade Rogers > Dibling I can afford Palmer, Saka, TAA, 2X ARS Def, and Haaland

So, when they come up against for example, the other promoted teams or an attack on an off day there’s potential.

Is it worth to sell Havertz to go for a double Arsenal defence+ Saka for -4? It would be: Flekken->Raya Dunk->Gabriel Salah->Saka Havertz->Jackson/Solanke/Wood Already used my WC in GW4.
Nice draft! Mine looks very similar. But I own Diaz at a great price which is why I plan on keeping him. Now the question is: Do I go Maddison + Stewart or Semenyo + DCL/Wood?
What is your opinion on Havertz? Wildcard active and tempted to go gabriel, saka and havertz. Havertz plays pretty much 90 minutes but he has not returned after GW1.

great team. However, I do find it interesting how overlooked Jackson is. He’ll probably out score Solanke and Isak handily this season with this Chelsea attack. He’s one of the two nailed attackers and he’s rested midweek. Guy’s going to eat. Don’t mind if people don’t buy him though, keep that differential dopamine coming

Fixture swing, bench depth and retaining FTs.
