yeah Patrick if you feel like your team needs it, having that safety net of FTs really helps. as long as you have a plan for 32-3 then perfect

I agree but also am captaining Palmer 😂

yeah fair enough. I've landed without a route to him so I'll miss out this week!

afaik
blanks we'll know after 29
doubles probably by gw31, small chance of pre gw30 but probably not

team looks good mike. would play JP over Dango
wouldn't worry about AM yet, maybe hold for end of the season maybe now if you have your BB intact
I'm on captain cold too.

ha otoh i love a risk in fpl..
comment in response to
post
possibly. I've only planned til 29 due to the unpredictability. I think I'll wildcard in 32 due to having no TC but that's about it really 😅

cheers zod. i am still undecided it's fair to say but most of the way there now?

i suppose the other side of this is that chelsea are still producing sans end product (2nd for team xG last 6) as is Palmer (5th for non pen xGI - top underperformer too) and it's southampton
but yeah, obviously the risk is clear and you have to go into it eyes wide open. and hope to get lucky.

Mo, Isak, Hall
I don't own Mateta nor Munoz!

yes these kinds of factors, as i mentioned on the pod, do play a psychological role don't they!?
comment in response to
post
i also have nothing to protect
and yes the answers here have definitely brought out the risk/caution sides of the coin in folk!
comment in response to

Yeah I know. It's a real tough one to size up and I could still go either way.

i've got nothing to protect, Ben
Bowen feels like a wildcard here!

so they've conceded 25% fewer goals
I think that's basically Meelan 1980s

makes sense Hap. i think through the day i've solidified on going with palmer for a smorgasbord of reasons - but the risk factors are acknowledged

ha yeah - to extend the analogy, you could frame it as investing in shares vs trading in derivatives
always lured in by a potential quick profit scalp in the latter, but often end up catching a falling knife

it's so horrifically predictable isn't it? I do tend to just give social media on the day a lot of the time when it comes to FPL resulting, especially if it hasn't gone my way - i don't care that that's selfish either 😂

Yeah definitely Kenny.
I'd say that Palmer hasn't actually been erratic, it's more his team mates as you suggest; as we said on the pod his underlying numbers are still holding up, it's just the conversion from his team mates is lacklustre to say the least!
I'm still bifurcating between the two..

ha I was just saying his elsewhere, Steve
it's one of those where you can see both hindsight possibilities writ large in your mind's eye
"Palmer Vs Saints was always going to be an explosive matchup!"
Vs
"Salah was always inevitable!"

yes they a

ha yeah. it's kinda refreshing that fantasy Bundesliga doesn't work that way, albeit it can be super frustrating trying to figure out the fixtures 😂
comment in response to
post
yeah the underperforming we highlighted on the pod from all fronts is quite something 😅
comment in response to
post
yeah that's something that's in mind, albeit actually both are going to be above the 100% EO mark so there's a risk whichever way you play I'd posit. makes sense tho arpi 😊
comment in response to

that's certainly the "yeah but", Roo
put it this way; if Palmer had scored on the weekend, would it be at cut and dried in your mind? that's something i've been mulling today
