2.11 Pablo Zabaleta, D, City

I had this typed up and changed my mind. I hate these top teams that are basically two-deep at every position.

Yeah, that was in the back of my mind, too. He's been really consistent for them and I don't think a 32yo Sagna will challenge too much though

2.13 Oscar MID Chelsea

 

[charvik]

I hope OJ sticks around for a little while, and that we can get Bonzai in here... I have meetings all day, so can't check in continuously. Send me a PM when up though, I have my pick ready.

NO SPOTLIGHTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!JUAN!1!!!!

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Graziano Pelle FWD Soton

This is the most intriguing pick so far, IMO. My first thought was "hmm, Jozy hasn't made me trust prolific Eredivisie strikers." But then I checked and Pelle has scored 50 goals in 57 games for Feyenoord in the past two seasons. Pretty, pretty good.

Agreed. We had him on our long list, but his midfield support seems like a big unknown for obvious reasons.

I was about to take him off that list, but I saw someone took him. I played a FIFA game as Feyenoord last night and this guy ####inf sucks. Acceleration 57. Fine. I'll wip in some crosses for him. Nope. He sucks. Terrible pick, imo.

My biggest lesson last year was that you need consistent starters. I would rather have Pelle than a lot of other players I've already seen picked. There are risks everywhere, but there is nothing worse than two or three of your key starters resting after a CL week. One I figured that out I did a lot better.

 

[The Gator]

Can we give him Fletcher and move on?

The no autosubs rule devalues rotation players for the big clubs. If you can start 11 fantasy players who start in real-life, you have a floor of 22 points, which will keep you in contention most gameweeks.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

I think its very hard to count on any striker making more than 30 appearances. You have to go with your best guess for that. Guys who look like the #1s are routinely dropped after going scoreless a few games in a row.

For midfielders and defenders, I absolutely look to appearances and then almost exclusively to team stats. I want midfielders for teams that create chances and I want defenders and keepers for teams that prevent chances.

Sorry. Busy day. Lemme get it together.

In thread... Deciding if one of my picks could slide to the next time I pick...

 

[The Gator]

I hope you take the guy I'm thinking of..don't want him but it makes sense imo

 

[Eephus]

In thread... Deciding if one of my picks could slide to the next time I pick...

Probably not. 22 picks is a long time.

 

[charvik]

Wth, somebody has to be first.

3.03 Joe Hart, GK, MCI

 

[charvik]

I hope you take the guy I'm thinking of..don't want him but it makes sense imo

Coutinho?

Well, betting on both being there next time around

This team(came out 't!ts teen' on my phone ) had 3 defenders in the top 21 outfielders...two of those will drop a lot imo, this guy will pick up the slack

3.04 Filipe Luis, D, Chelsea

3.05 Debuchy D Arsenal

Agreed. He's the reason I passed on Ivanovic.

3.04 Filipe Luis, D, Chelsea

 

[Native]

Love that Gator is avoiding all the Liverpool players and picking the Chelsea boys instead. He knows where the true value lies.

 

[Ominous Johnson]

As a fan, I'm staying away from that mess altogether.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Lots of points to be had from the Sunderland and Burnley goldmines, guys.

Yeah, but Oscar's role in the Brazilian mess trumps anything happening at Stamford Bridge.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

This is the first year in God knows how long that Hulk hasn't been rumored to an EPL team. Even West Brom is like, "ewww, no ... thank you."

I saw where my blind faith got me last year....although it did lead to me picking up Shirtpul for free
