Rejoiced at Richarlison and Neves both getting on the scoresheet but suddenly noticed Neves was on the bench for me 
Should've put him in 11 instead of Mitrovic.

Kante, Jorginho and Neves all scoring first week after I've been banging on to my mates all summer about not putting defensive midfielders in
Same as this. I was literally telling my brother this morning how so many people had put Kante in even though hes not a 'Fantasy Football' type player along with Jorginho and Neves as you say. Truly eating my words now...
Jota has been poor in open play but I’ll happily accept that freekick assist.
Think i will take out Cairney and put in Neves for next week.

Pulled Neves and Richarlson out late. Great decision.
This is my team currently:
Patricio
Shaw, Lascelles, Tarkowski
Sessegnon, Cairney, Ozil, Milivojevic, De Bruyne
Aguero, Kane
Bench: Ryan, Wood, Zanka, Lovren
Want to get Neves in but not seeing which midfielder I could take out. Cairney, Neves and Milivojevic all serve the same purpose of being penalties and free kick takers. But Ozil and De Bruyne will provide assists and goals guaranteed.

Could swap out Ozil, Lovren and Wood and bring in Wan-Bissaka, Neves and Lukaku...
Someone in my work league has all 3 to get Salah in, I said they'd never score any points
meanwhile Wan-Bissaka is my 3rd sub Kante, Jorginho and Neves all scoring first week after I've been banging on to my mates all summer about not putting defensive midfielders in
Bloody casuals winning again.
It is a gamble though, but I found that if I have a good gut feeling and a team has a great fixture-list, then I just jump the bandwagon and go all in. Also did a block-attack of Firmino-Mane and Salah last season when it was clear that Liverpool was goals waiting to happen - Paid off nicely - It also makes you stand out from the others that only have Salah or also have Shaw for example. I do feel its less of a gamble if they have a good fixture list though, as things will balance themselves out.
I'm considering getting both Walker and Mendy too, after Arsenal as their fixture list is just really good defensively. It looks like stable points in 5-6 rounds, but also a tad expensive.
HUD, wlv, NEW, FUL, cdf, BHA.. Big opportunity really
On 26 at the moment, hoping it will stay there as 3 pool and 3 city players to go. PVA, Zaha and Richarlison saving my ass right now.
Think it was a good decision putting Richarlison in my team.
Richarlison
That'll do pig! Wasn't sure about the Richarlison pick but it's working out
Fuuck should have had Richarlison instead of Jota.
Richarlison over Jota
29pts without BPS with Salah(c), Mendy, Mee, Bernardo, Firmino and Aguero to play. Should be a decent start.
43 points with my 4 best players still to play Aguero, Salah, Mane, Bernardo
Aguero, Salah, Mane, Bernardo51 points so far with Firmino (c), Mane, Allison and Bertrand to go. Pissed at myself for taking out Richarlison for Jota earlier yesterday
Goal and assist by Neves.
Hmm.. I thought you could join a league after it started..
What is the error message? Maybe the Admin has to open it again for you.. I would pm @Levo to see if anything can be done
Feck! Wan Bissaka and Jimenez on the bench.

Richarlison was the right call afterall. He bloody loves Marco Silva doesn't he?
31pts with Robertson, Mendy, Mane, Salah(c) & Aguero to go. 5 premium players still to play so should be making a reasonable start here.

Why were people raving about Jota, looks woeful.
Neves is the player.

Me too. I have 23 points currently with my captain played and 20 points sitting on my bench
22 with Ederson, Bernardo Silva, Arnoutovic, Mendy and Salah to play.
Miffed I took Jorginho out.

35 points at the moment.
Richarlison is a very streaky player. I've just put him in my team. I reckon he's going to rack up the point over the next few months then go quiet.

Neves and Wan Bisska on my bench
feck sake. It's already begun.
Device against Shaw and Pedro last minute. Bissaka on the bench.
Hate this game
I took Nevas out of my initial team
40 points but only 4 left to play with Mendy, Aguero, Sane and Salah. Eriksen and King let me down.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Only one game though so I’ll give it a few more.
Richarlison injured too so in no rush to switch immediately.
Jota looked pretty bad.
Saw a lot of compilations of him before deciding, and to me he doesn't look anything special. Looks heavy on his touch, and one who could be found out in the prem.
Not impressed yet, but I guess he plays in a good attacking position.
Waiting before I take the 8 point hit to make the 3 switches I want to. Gotta see how Ozil does tomorrow. But then having a front 3 of Lukau, Aguero and Kane sounds nice.
For me as well, but will still be subbed on
Lucky you. I’ve more points on my bench than in my starting 11 ffs
Richarlison has saved my game week. How bad was the injury?
My bench? Jimenez (6), Daniels (5), Wan-Bissaka (9) - all before bonus points. Regretting putting faith in Jota and Sessegnon. Should have gone with Neves and invested in a more expensive midfielder.
Ah well - Mane, Aguero, Salah (c), Mendy and TAA to come tomorrow!
