that happens at the end of each match day too. Nothing new there.Looks like they've added the bonus pts on this evening, rather than wait for tomorrow night's game....
Lost about 45k of that gain last night. I'm assuming that was mainly down to Ndiaye, over 11% of players have him in their side, compared to 5% who have Xhaka.I've gone up just over 100k places this week, though that will undoubtedly change come 10 tomorrow night, as I don't have anyone playing at the SOL. As of now, I'm just outside the top 300k. I was outside the top 700k two weeks ago, so I suppose it's progress (of a sort). If I could get into the top 75k at the end of the season, that'd do me.
I finished on 91. The elusive 100 pts weekend still out of reach. I had played my bench boost which was poor in the end, only 8 points on the bench.Lost about 45k of that gain last night.

I did manage a small green arrow in the end, of about 2k. I'll take that though with my 4 midfielders contributing a pitiful 10 points between them.Lost about 45k of that gain last night.

Outstation that mate. I'm thinking Cherki myself but will hold off for a couple more games to see if he keeps starting. I'd really like him in my team in GW13 for Leeds at home onwards.I’m in the top 500, fluked it. Got 1 sub to make this weekend and need to get rid of Cunha, thinking about Cherki but is that heart over head? Also could get another arsenal defender…
Could you have afforded Sarr? I've just brought him in, it's given me a benching dilemma this week though.Have shifted out Bergvall, and brought in Lerma. He's in pretty good form, and Palace's next few fixtures aren't too unkind (Brighton at home, Wolves away, rags at home, Burnley away, Fulham away and City at home).
I could have. I can’t really explain it, I just had a feeling for Lerma. I could bring in Sarr, but it'd mean a -4, which I'm reluctant to do. Got my 3 Palace players now Guehi, Lerma and Mateta). Maybe a swap with Lerma when I decide to use my FH chip. Thinking about moving out Saka for Gabriel in that week. They just don't let in goals. Just waiting to see when Arsenal have a gimme fixture at home to someone who's struggling. GW16, home to Wolves looks promising.Could you have afforded Sarr?

The last game was the only PL game Lerma has started all season. I watched them last night, he did start and they went pretty much full strength, so that's good news. Sarr was excellent last night, he's been on my radar for a while, I was going to roll a transfer this week but his performance twisted my arm, I got rid of King who was always last on the bench for me, so a nice upgrade.I could have.

I guess we'll find out in time. As I said, the option is there to simply swap them next week. I guess I'll stand or fall on my decision; no middle ground. FWIW, he may well end up on my bench anyway. Looking at a midfield of Caicedo, Semenyo and Saka. With Haaland, Mateta and Woltemade up front. The alternative would be a 4-4-2, swapping Woltemade for Lerma. But I think I'll stick with the former option for this weekend.The last game was the only PL game Lerma has started all season.

Thanks for your input. As I just explained, he's likely to end up on the bench anyway.Lerma has played 25 minutes in the last 4 games I'd be taking the -4
The one thing about Sarr is that he will be going to AFCON, I think his last game will probably be GW16. So it's one of those transfers that gets harder to justify the longer you leave it. I'll probably sell before the City fixture, so I've got him for five games. I don't have any other players who are going to AFCON, if I already had a couple I'd swerve him.I guess we'll find out in time. As I said, the option is there to simply swap them next week.

That hadn't occurred to me, but it's an excellent point. I am aiming to ensure that I have no players heading off in January. Semenyo will have to be shifted out before then. Ditto Kudus, who I'll probably have moved on anyway, well before the new year. They're no use to me thousands of miles away!The one thing about Sarr is that he will be going to AFCON, I think his last game will probably be GW16.

You're in luck with Semenyo and Kudus, their countries haven't qualified. Just had a look at your squad and you have zero AFCON players currently. The group games start the 21st December.That hadn't occurred to me, but it's an excellent point. I am aiming to ensure that I have no players heading off in January.

I wouldn't waste any of those transfers on moving AFCON players out personally. I'd sell them in advance, make sure I've no transfers left and bank the five.You get your transfers topped up to five (max) free transfers to deal with the AFCON tournament (after GW15)
Doesn't matter how many xfers you have banked previously and you can use them on any player from GW16 onwards or you can carry them (xfers) forward.
Apart from Haaland there's not one premium player or anyone priced much more than 8M in the midfield and forward position's screaming buy me.(spoiler alert)
With Gyökeres falling in price within the next 2 hours, he'll be gone from my team before GW11 starts as was always the plan since midweek.
Do I go for the smart FWD value pick with @The Stockport Iniesta as we discussed offline a few weeks ago, or do I just go with the dead FWD pick in Guiu and bank the 2M?
Leaning on the former with some interesting options up front during GW13, 16 and 17, and given I'm already looking at value in the MIDs, and having that flexibility may make the most sense, even if they sit the bench this GW. Decisions decisions...
