Not sure what’s going on with Højlund price rises as he’s rising to 90% every day then dropping to 30% the next morning, his ownership is at 1% and with the rag fanboys adding him I suspect he won’t need to do anything for a price rise to occur. If he does bag a goal/ assist he will be heavily selected.
“He's not increasing until he does something. ;-)”
Is that not just chasing lost points if putting him in team after he scores heavily like folk have done with Sterling and Son”
I wasn't speaking of the points, I was speaking of his price rise. Agreed on a potential of lost points, but with BHA playing there this weekend and he didn't yet start last GW, I'm not yet sold on him. You got him on before he's done much of anything, and that may work out, it's just anticipating 1 or 2 price rises beforehand that time that I question.
Again, if Son only goes up 0.1 after a hat-trick haul as what has happened, I'm not sure why Hojlund is going to go up in price value (0.2 would be an amazing Rag influence I don't see) after not really showing anything yet.
Also, many Rags might already be maxed out on 3 players with Rashford, Fernandes, and Onana perhaps already taking all their spaces. Unless they are WCing or have 2 transfers, it would be hard to dump one of them AND add in FWD Hojlund too after last GW.
Agree I’m unsure why Jackson hasn’t dropped in value tbh, he’s been over -100 several days this week.
I laughed again overnight as he dodged the red line -100.7 value. Amazing. :-)
He'll probably drop by tonight or tomorrow once people start to make final selections for GW06, but it will be interesting to watch. I'm not yet losing money on him for the time I move him out.
His expected goals is second best in league but he’s been a frustrating asset especially with 3 bookings in 4 matches, he’s almost at a suspension, yes expect he’ll score now this weekend but I also think Højlund will get decent returns.
Would you swap Ward-Prowse out for Salah for 4 point hit and captain Salah?
I’m considering this but also thinking wait until game week 9. I’m worried about Salah these next 2 game weeks but do t think it’s worth the 4 point hit if I can bench ward-prowse
I dumped Salah after GW02 just like you did once I got his captain points. I'm not going to bring him back unless he really steps up, and it could happen over these next run of good fixtures until GW07 (away Spurs) and GW08 (away BHA).
I like my team a lot better with No Salah with all that cash freed up to improve players across the board. Also, on general principal I don't and haven't taken point hits, especially if it is a WANT vs. a NEED. Ward-Prowse has some tough fixtures the next 2 weeks, but he's playing on set pieces, so I'd either bench or ride him one more and maybe take action next week for free if he doesn't work out vs. City.
Ultimately, you need Salah to score +4 over JWP over the period to make it pay off in the positive if you took a hit this week, so I'll be interested in what you decide. ;-)
