🚨Klopp use of a substitute at half time is nothing more than smart. He’s got 3 substitution windows & had already used 2 by half time. Half time DOES NOT count as a substitution window so he’s used it as an additional to manage mins & still have window left

This is embarrassing. How about someone provides cultural training to the FA 🤷🏻♂️ it's just as racist to denounce another countries way of life & their terminology. Just because it doesn't properly translate into English doesn't mean you can make it fit whatever narrative you wish
Accidental discovered stat📋
Rodrigo has 5 returns from 2.4xGI as stands. 4 goals come from 1.8xG, however 1 of those goals, the 1 he stole on the goal line into an open net was from 0.9xG
⚠️ That means his other 3 goals are from a combined 0.9xG 🤦🏼♂️😂

As good as Antonio looked against Burnley he struggled & was isolated against a 3 centre back formation v Everton where he didn't even have a SOT. Brighton are 1 of the better defensive sides & play a controlling possession based 3atb (1)

Tuchel Tombola (Full/wing back edition)
"Tuchel is the biggest tinkerman of managers" is something I said when he first took the job. This instantly made Chelsea assets harder to select similar to City's. His favourite position to rotate - full/wing back....

I mean Burnley had 7 positive cases miss the FA cup game on 8th January. Even if the tested positive that day which is unlikely then would be back for 15th January. That's too late for Leicester game but 3 days before Watford. Don't see why it would end up off

Chelsea Defence Double
I know majority of people are keen on the James & Chilwell double up understandably however with the known rotation risks & winter schedule ahead I think there is a good case for Rudiger + 1. I certainly wouldn't be as elling Rudiger

Lukaku opens up that's he's been dealing with a minor issue recently that he'll get scanned now he's got a free week due to his booking before returning to Chelsea.
FPL managers.... Lukaku has lost a leg, will miss Villa & may never play again.
How about we all just chill🤦🏻♂️😂
City upcoming schedule over an 18 days period includes 6 games. That's a game every 3 days & 5 of those 6 are away from home
Villa (home)
Arsenal (away - 200miles )
Forest (away - 73miles )
Leipzig (away - 840miles)
Bournemouth - (away 251miles)
Bristol city (away - 168miles)

When will Pep learn. When your best centre back partnership are available you play them. Don't try be a smart arse to try make it seem like your re-creating the wheel or you get burned. Isn't this the 2nd time he's made this decision to same result this season. Grade A bellend😂
@FPLFacts_
• Palace - too low. Possible relagation fight but will survice.
• Brighton - too high. Will be bottom half potentially relegation fight imo
• Watford - too high. Likely be in bottom 4 with the other 2 promoted teams
• West ham - too high. Small squad & UEL will be a struggle
Unpopular "community" opinion.
Mahrez does this every year where people jump on him thinking he's a good pick for him to not make the next squad. He's already not made the squad twice from 9 GWs. He's blanked 5 of the games he has played. 45 total points, 33 from 2 games 🤷🏻♂️
Hate to be in this situation but it could really help so much just by tweeting this...
Sadly my wife's cousin was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer back in March. As you'll see below the treatment recommended is expensive. Her gofundme is below....
Unpopular opinion⚠️
As controversial as it may be for FPL players, if your honest with yourself I think that's a Jose Sa own goal. Ball doesn't look like going on target, just a cross that Sa changes direction for the ball to go into the net

Interesting to see so many people benching Mitrovic because he has a knock. If he plays he can do damage. Has shades of Son's magic hamstring injury under Jose where people benched him for him to start next game with 2 goals + 1 assist😂

@HinduMonkey
Bad argument though as it's simply a numbers thing. Ronaldo has scored 3 times more penalties than Bruno has even taken 😂😂😂
The more you take the more your likely to miss & in turn conversion rate will fall
Twitter has done a stellar job hyping every Perisic touch yet at the same time I've seen very little mentioned about him pulling up & holding his hamstring v Wolves, followed by limping after the game. Am I the only 1 who noticed this? Has he been training?🤔

@FPL__Raptor
Not sure if a CS was ever expected in this game. Forest at home seem to get massively overlooked by twitter. 3 wins 2 draws in last 5. Beat spurs, palace and Liverpool. Draws with villa and Brentford. 7 goals in that time. Even the 2 home defeats prior they scored 2 goals a game

Shocking for such a big influential account to come out with such misleading info followed by "you're playing the game wrong"
Per90 isn't a good indication when 1 rarely plays 90 & mainly makes sub appearances. Skews the data so much. Per game would give a much better comparison
@lateriser12
Massively under looked how low intensity his role is in comparison to playing for say a Dortmund. His load now is not the same. City control the large share of the ball, he has less chasing back to do overall likely a smaller work load. He's also perfect age for quick recovery
Foden played 90 last night so means he doesn't start at weekend, but kdb played 90 first Dortmund game then 72 v wolves a couple days later
But hey why let facts get in the way of a good twitter narrative. Pep will start who he wants, UCL mins irrelevant🤷🏻♂️

⚠️Is it just me that has concerns over the fact that Raphinha just spent 28 days out injured with a serious thigh haematoma. Everyone seems to have forgotten this & expects him to have no issues with 3 games in 8 days. Match fitness & sharpness both things I keep wondering about
Kdb 🚨
Wait your telling me KdB at 32 played months with hamstring tears which led to a grade 3 tear in UCL final(average time out 3 months). Was then thrown back into competive football less than 2 months after injury occured & is already off injured😱🤦🏼♂️

Yet 4 FA cup games we can watch, all of them free on terrestrial TV 🤷🏻♂️ make it make sense from a cost perspective to why we pay for SkySports & BT sport 😂
@LetsTalk_FPL
It's absolutely madness that the UEL final & the FA cup final are during the season. This should never happen. There is always the possibility that it has an affect on the league. Pre last season the FA cup was always the week after GW38. Only changed last season due to covid

Twitter has went mad for Newcastle this week. The reality of their dgw is that BOTH teams they are playing are considerably better than them🤦🏼♂️ I'll be surprised if Newcastle keep a CS in either game(2+ conceded per game wouldn't shock me)

@FPL_physio
As the FPL physio it's only right to share with you that at 29 & as the type of striker he is he's only missed 6 games through injury in career. 3 of them were recent with covid. 1 of them was from a broken nose. Other 2 were from muscle issues. Guy has a great recovery rate
@FplMode
Hwang took a penalty this season with Sarabia on the bench. Neither been on the pitch at same time to have a guaranteed answer. But numbers wise Hwangs record is 9 from 11. Sarabia is an elite level taker with 17 from 17. Have to fancy the chances of it being the latter who takes
@NighthawkFPL
@BigManBakar
Simpe fact is. If Antonio hadn't got sent off and suspended for 1 game the original tweet wouldn't even of been thought of to make a narrative out of. He's not just became a bad asset because of 1 game & a 1 match suspension

@BigManBakar
Just like all strategies etc it's not a 1 size fits all. I'm a wc26 player, I didn't own any liverpool prior to my WC, I'm 3 points off safety with 2 players to go. I've not lost anything yet, nor have I lost ground on anything & I'm pretty well set up long term
@formadillo
Same for Luton & Bournemouth then. They get 1 point each and neither team gets any points awarded from the rescheduled game. Yes really that’s how ridiculous the suggestion is😂
Isak is an issue but Darwin isn’t because Wilson may return to training soon even though his playing return date is similar timeframe to Jota🤦🏼♂️ oh apparently Gakpo must not exist either.

Leicester won't beat Fulham as comfortably as everyone thinks. Fulham have conceded the most headed chances & Leicester aren't the biggest aerial threat from open play. Fulham will sit in deep closing the space between the back line which Vardy craves
James doesn't start🚨
Welcome to reality, fantasy-land🤦🏼♂️ absolute no shock that after 2 consecutive hamstring injuries, 1 each leg & only 148 mins of football in over 3 months that he's on the bench. Can we stop underestimating load after injuries now😂

Well that's absolutely poor nonsense info. Unusual for this account. Would find that Pep actually used Stones here first on 14th December in 7-0 win v Leeds. Arteta didn't use White to cover for Tomi until 26th December.

Very well said. Meant to be a "community" who play a fantasy game based on the sport we all enjoy. Game being the key. Don't need to put people down who's decisions didn't work out. Footballs a game of fine margins & moments of magic where not everything happens the way we expect
Listen, this game is fine margins

The content creators getting abuse is absolutely ridiculous. That liverpool/united game yday was an anomaly. Noone seen that scoreline happening. If the game was played today the chances of the outcome being the same are non existent.

⚠️ Doing your own research 🚨
So much lazy/rubbish reporting on twitter about players just now. Recent nonsense from Dunk being injured to Sancho wins lots of penalties just being passed around with no truth to it. Don't believe everything you read, check up facts yourself 👍🏻
🚨non oop alert 👀😂
Pretty sure it's a 3412 with wingbacks with wolves. He's very big on attacking overlapping fullbacks and that's not marcal. Back 3. RAN/Hoever Wing backs. 2 centre mids. Trincao in the floating 10 role behind front 2 of Silva/Jimenez
👍🏻
@BigManBakar
All I can see here is numbers to suit a narrative & absolutely zero context. Conveniently looks purely at this "calendar year" starting as Rashfords hot streak did while also nicely timing in with Bruno being forced to play deeper due to Casemiro missing 7 games & squad issues
@FFScout_Mark
On Salah very there’s a chance he doesn’t have a game til gw27 though. If Egypt get to semis he won’t be back til after GW24. Could miss GW25 if they win it, then if Liverpool get to the final of cup they blank GW26. Forest in GW27 followed by Ciry in GW28
