Thank you Prof, I am so happy you're doing a Deadline Stream because I've got about four templates and some good advice from the Discord but if I'm still flailing I've got a lifeline then 😂 I'm going to listen to this in the bath now and do some proper planning 🤓
Finally coming to my senses. Not had Haaland at all and it has killed me. I am 120 points behind you so basically I am out of the running. Brought KDB and Diaz in last week and think they need to go. I can swap them for Haaland and Garnacho. Don't really want to bring in Haaland but his price will get away from me if I don't. I don't think i will be playing a booster this week. Too much rotation involved for Caraboa Cup.
Hi Phillip, there’s still time to recover! It’s hard coz it doesn’t feel the best week for Haaland with people going against. But the price change reason makes sense. Not fancying europa?
Great stuff Scott keep up the good work mate I’m thinking of being aggressive this week and putting solanke in for pedro and Foden in for Diaz got a healthy budget of 55.6 million so hopefully it pays off
Jeez mr money bags! I really like them moves, not a lot will do it because they’re not due rises this. week but they look great for points and you’re already set nice for budget
Morning Scott! My choice to go with Onana last week paid off, keeping for the budget increase and had Mazraoui in for Hall. This week I’m happy to keep Sels for the rise in price. My thoughts were Eze to Porro and Robinson to a 3.8m mid or striker. Maybe Rashford or Garnacho. Or Gvadiol down to Porro (keep Eze). Use the extra 0.4 (3.9m) to replace Robinson with a defender - maybe Timber or Fofana or Lewis? Captain on Salah! Son on 12th man if I’m brave enough😂
I think I prefer the second option I think it could be another good game for Eze and get his rise. Maybe Lewis but just expect he won’t get Arsenal. City fixtures nicer in the longer term
Ok good advice as usual 👌 team is sells .. digne .. Robinson… Munoz …. Eze … saka … semenyo… De Bruyne.. Pedro salah…. Haaland.. so got to take semenyo out now and cos of might not play De Bruyne. So was gonna bring tielman in and gnacho or my other thought is Porro so 4 at the back 🤔 either way it gives me nearly 3 mil in bank for next week foden or better defenders
As someone who is playing dream team, and any fantasy league game at all for the first time, your videos are very informative! I'd be interested to know if making transfers most weeks continues throughout the season for the best results, or whether the aim is to reach a team with almost a full 11 that you want to be playing every week towards the end of the season. I'm trying to decide between bringing in either Porro and Garnacho, or Trent and Amad for this week. Although Porro might have the better fixtures for the next couple weeks, I feel that Trent is someone I'd be happy to keep for the majority of the season, however, I don't want to be stuck with Amad. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. With the 2 players I'm transferring out this week I'd be able to spend up to 8.8 million, with the rest of my team being: Martinez; Robinson, Gvardiol, Lewis; Onana, Saka, Eze; Salah Haaland.
Just wanted to say welcome to Dream Team, I'm new-ish, certainly only been taking it seriously since last season, and the Prof has helped me enormously to think analytically. At the mo you basically want as many Champions League players in as possible by GW6, or Carabao. Then you'll have a fairly good team going forward but you'll always need transfers for tweaking and injuries. Then, as I remember, it's a mad dash at the end to get in as many of the two remaining teams playing in the Premier League Final at the end of the season as possible 😂 But yep, listen to the Prof, he knows what he's talking about 🤗 x
With this game a lot of the time we make transfers regularly because you can increase your team value and gradually once your team value increases you can afford better players. You can probably settle later on in the season but it always feels like there’s something you can improve haha!
On the other part I think I’d prefer a downgrade on Trent to Porro to be able to upgrade Amad If you try to think of it like points per million, I think it should be more efficient that way around. But Trent is great!
@@MissNoopy Thank you for the warm welcome ☺️ I really enjoy what the guys at DT tonic and it’s certainly been valuable as a newbie. I’ll definitely be staying tuned in for the rest of the season. I under estimated how much more exciting or stressful playing a fantasy team game makes the football 😆
In a pickle with non euro players. I reckon try get Kamada up to Kulusevski for another European player. Then maybe have to sell either Eze or Diaz to a cheaper Euro player to have money to upgrade Veltman and Robinson next week
Struggling what to decide this week currently my team is: Gk:Flekken Def: Robinson, Rico and porro Mid: Diaz, Saka,Gordon, Eze and onana Atk: Salah and haaland Thinking about maybe dropping Robinson and diaz for Digne and maybe Madison or Johnson. Really unsure on what to do🤔
Absolutely smashed it this week 156 points with activating my 12th man WATKINS 🤣 overall rank I’m in the top 2.5K 🤑 my plans this week out Haaland Gvardiol in Watkins Konate My team GK Sels Defence Timber Konate Robinson Midfield Saka Diaz Szoboszlai Rogers Savinho Strikers Salah/Captain Watkins 😃 I plan to get Haaland back in after this weekend for Diaz
Yes scott mateAnother great informative vid👊 Already decided in my head the 2 players I need to move on and that’s Robinson and Nedeljkovic… wanted to move him on last week but just couldn’t free up the budget .. That will leave me with 6.4 Mil in the bank I was thinking Kulusevski as a cheap enabler which would leave me with 3.7 mil for a defender… Possibly Timber even despite the City fixture he’s the cheapest of the Arsenal back 4 and always seem to get clean sheet..
If you have nothing else to upgrade I probably would do it yeah, I think I’d rather keep McNeil upgrade Murillo. I like the look for spurs this week despite not best results so fsr
I have 6.4 to spend to bring in for double fixtures this GW. Do you think I should bring in De Ligt and Johnson or Ndidi and Romero for Veltman and Smith Rowe?
Kulusevski and Timber works quite nicely. Don’t think timber gets the double but gets a nice rise and good fixtures afterwards. Doublers are a bit tricky this week with the carabao so one longer term and one short term could work
Hey mate, how do you feel you guys will line up for Europa League? Really fancying Sonny for 12th but hoping Ange goes strong. Would be frustrating if he’s benched haha
Hi mate, mint as usual any chance for a hand? My team is Henderson Robinson gvardiol livramento Saka Gordon eze rogers Salah Pedro haaland Not sure who to take out and get in? Captain on Salah this week for me 🙏🏽
Finally getting rid of neco Williams and isak. Think of Watkins but then left with cheap defender option at £2m greaves. Or go other route digne and szobozlai both should get price rises and better long term I think but lil disappointed can’t fit Watkins in I’ll try next week when Gordon probably comes out thoughts?
Yeah got to go really. Maybe two cheaper players would be better so you don’t have to have a 2m greaves. 3.3m Martinez & Solanke, Rashford, Kulu, Garnacho? Szobozlai Digne route I like a lot too
Prof (excellent podcast btw): if you had Watkins would you consider making him Captain if you also had Haaland and Salah but no Man U or Spurs, pliz? 🤓⚽️
I would probably still lean Salah. I think he’s more secure for minutes, wouldn’t be suprised if Watkins gets a 70 sub again if his foot is causing problems and they’re ahead.
Good vid as always my team currently is Sels Porro digne and Robinson Palmer Rogers Onana Eze saka Haaland and salah And have 1.2 mil in the bank want to take Robinson out but can’t afford a good arsenal defender without taking someone else out, do you think it is worth saving a transfer or taking a risk by taking palmer out too
Great pod as ever ! Crazy as this sounds considering a punt on rashford ! It would be garnacho but not sure about the exact mins he gets !! His body language is looking so much better then its been in forever ! ive got to give up on donkey Isaak …..looks like he is injured so makes that decision easier ! Bruno is an option though , just then means i ll have no budget to transfer to an arsenal defender next week……and this has to be done im dropping behind in my families mini league (all Arsenal obvs) as they have all doubled up in defence with Gooners 😭 ……im even contemplating putting in 1 this week as we could well get another CS even it being City …..the form the defence is in ! Thoughts ?
I don't mind punting this week, you get the rise as well. Probably better for mins than garnacho too. Confidence player. Would rather do that I think and leave myself flexible for arsenal than take all the budget with bruno. I'm looking to get 1 or 2 arsenal defence next week by using Kulu as my cheap enabler
Swapped isak for son and both have let me down all season Cashing in on son and taking a punt with rashford. Was gonna go Watkins or havertz I hope I'm not wrong
please could you help me make a decision mate? Pedro (BHA) & Diaz OUT -> Watkins & Tielemans IN (leaves 0.1 in the bank) Or Pedro (BHA) & Madueke OUT -> Garnacho & Tielemons IN (leaves 0.4 in the bank)
I’m thinking bringing in Watkins and Bogarde for palmer and nedjalkovic to get some budget for Arsenal players and using 12th man for pedro porro, what do you think?
I’d avoid Bogarde mate, feel like it’s only a matter of time before he becomes an issue like Ned was. I’m not sure on Porro 12th I’ve always thought attackers and pen takers seem the best way to go for maximum opportunity. Could work out but don’t love it
Hey mate, I’m not particularly tied to a formation but typically I think 3 defenders the best with the value in midfield/attack. May be times that changes based on fixtures but attacking actions seem to be rewarded more
I’ve got De Bruyne 🤦♂️ gotta take him out with price change going down plus might not start but who would you replace with 🤔 foden but think fernandes better option
@DreamTeamProfessor very true, I'm tempted to pick him for the .3 increase plus he's got two game fixture week so hopefully score a goal for a return of a .1 or even .2 then make on him
I'm taking out Robinson and smith Rowe for L digne and rashford, it was a choice between rashford and timber but with rashford coming into form and timber up against city and maybe rested the next game I thought ide go with rashford making my team GK sels Df Anderson Df porro Df digne MD saka MD eze MD Palma MD onana St rashford St Salah captain St haaland Points this week 135 Total 501 😜
I don’t mind 12th man this week. There’s plenty chances to play that tho. Goal bonus I feel better for when we have a more expensive strong squad. Max captain can help with a hard decision. Like this week but think I’d like to save for a bigger double
Feel a bit of a mare at the minute with my team Mcarthy Gvardiol Robinson Munoz Saka Kdb Eze Rogers Garnacho (bringing in) Salah Haaland Not sure whether just use the 1 transfer and have 3 next week and have a shuffle?! 54m bank 495 total points Hmmmmmm.....
Hi mate, huge help as always Not going to bore you with my team 1-11, but im currently sat 153 gw points & 691 in the overall leaderboard! Been planning for this week since gw2 having Tielemens since then & it has paid off. Stuck between two transfers this week, either Watkins & Porro or Bruno & Dalot. Long term id probably say id like Porro and Watkins, i think if Porro gets Europe he is the best DEF asset in the game, however if he doesnt i can see Watkins and Porro only getting 1 game next week, with Bruno & Dalot likely getting 2. Bruno 12th man?! Be interested to hear your thoughts
Fantastic start!! I think if it’s just for this week I’d agree it’s Dalot and Bruno. But I quite like that idea Porro Watkins & Bruno 12th Long term I think Porro Watkins is a good play
@@DreamTeamProfessor thanks mate, yeah im gonna go with the long term play, and the watkins rise. I can tell that you are tempted by the 12th man too 😂
What do you think on eze and Pedro out for Bruno F and Kulusevski then 12th man Son maybe ? Leaves me 0.7m for next week to move livramento and Henderson possibly
Yeah I like that mate i'm going to 12th Son i've decided. (unless any leaks) Shame to lose eze 0.3 rise tho that's the only thing but better players coming with more fixtures
What should I do tell me Captain and vice captain aswell please my team is Sels Digne Gvardiol Robertson Saka Rogers Maddison Eze Haaland Salah Pedro injured
That’s tough man your team looks set up really well. Sels or Eze would be ones to change to European but you’ll probably want the 0.3 rise from each. Maybe looking at Martinez in for Sels and Pedro to a European doubler this week? I like Salah as my cap Haaland vice
Not a chance - the video length is perfect wouldn't even mind if they were longer 😝 the videos are a perfect accompaniment to working from home haha! Keep up the good work Scott!!
The videos are broken up into sections by team so you could skip teams you're not interested in and if it's still too long you can go to settings and adjust the video speed and listen to the Prof as a chipmunk on +0.5 😂
@DreamTeamProfessor I want too but I'm sure Kulve is also a risk at rotation aint he and I feel maddison will get numbers this week, I also have son as a 12th man do you recommend that or maybe maddison 12th man
What should I do tell me Captain and vice captain aswell please my team is Sels Digne Gvardiol Robertson Saka Rogers Maddison Eze Haaland Salah Pedro injured
That’s tough man your team looks set up really well. Sels or Eze would be ones to change to European but you’ll probably want the 0.3 rise from each. Maybe looking at Martinez in for Sels and Pedro to a European doubler this week? I like Salah as my cap Haaland vice
