Zoph's a true OG. Been at a very high level for literally ever. A bit like Lineker, one forgets how good a player he is, when considering how good a conductor of the show he is.
Haaland only ever made sense when there weren't other forward options. Other forwards don't need to match him to make it worth going without- even if Cunha etc are getting 75% of his points that is still worth it when you have Salah for captain option. Haaland needs to do a LOT to make that £15m worth it.
I don't know where this idea about Chelsea playing on a counter against Villa comes from. Villa in big matches plays super defensively! Watch the game vs Bayern. Watch the game vs Juventus. They conceded 1 goal in 5 Champions League games! They almost park the bus and definintely give the ball to the opponent. Even against Pool they only conceded when they sent troops on corners. The only play control with high line vs weaker teams. I would not count on many Chelsea counters.
1:25:34 WOW ! Pras's current team is the ideal WC team for GW12 apart from the 3 defenders he owns. Immaculate planning ! deserves to be sitting at 54k
As a villa fan we play different style based on opposition + if we’re home or away. Against palace we were higher but against Chelsea we will sit in our 4-4-2 shape off ball and probably defend
Aston Villa defensively have looked better than most people give credit for; in their last 22 halves of football in all competitions, in 20 of them, Villa have given up 1 goal or less. Chelsea failed to score when at home vs Villa last season. In the last two PL matches head to head at Chelsea's stadium, Chelsea have failed to score against Aston Villa.
I was in the same boat. On Sat night moved haaland to cunha semenyo to saka for -4 I get where Pras is coming from and Salah out for Saka keep haaland was my og plan. Salah is playing for that contract man just be there for the ride and take the points. Mentioned it in his post match press. Took off his shirt in a match against SOU. PS: I’m glad he celebrated by taking off his shirt. -1 and less BP Changed my C from S to H before deadline. What a swing. Phew.
could not disagree more to the notion "Palmer is clear for captaincy" because I know Chelsea fans who think a draw is most likely and historically Villa can create offense at Stamford Bridge. Salah is playing a dreadful Man City midfield and defence. Gvardiol is in horrible form and Salah and LIV will be going for the win at home to extend the gap to double digits after 13 gameweeks.
Zoph, why shift to the template now when at his rank? Have to do something a bit different, Haaland will be a huge captain differential in weeks to come. The time to do those moves was weeks ago, not now
Haaland may be putting up the best numbers but there are too many blanks. For that price he has to be clearly the best captain ever week whereas Salah and Saka will consistently deliver double digit returns 2 every 3 games. That’s the difference - you know you’ll captain the premium mids as you’ve always got plum fixtures between them + extra for the goal + clean point
@@Pras_fpl wow, didnt expect such a prompt from the legend! thanks, currently have tied up all money on the midfield with salah,son, palmer, bruno and Saka, i do want to change wissa to a cunha but then who’d u sell? Son or bruno? Cheers again
Variance is like saying multiple players had similar expected points entering the game but the outcomes were different. I.e. the variance between Palmer and Salah in gw 12 with Leicester(a) and Southampton(a) was large.
Based on historic data, form etc, statistical models predict how many points a player will get. Let’s say expected points for Salah was 7 and for Haaland was 8. In actuality, Salah ends up with 14 points and Haaland with 2. Resulting in “variance” of 12 points, whereas the expected pre match variance was 1 point.
I have always been trying to find is the ring leader for all the FPL calls before all content creators follow suit. This week its Andy who called Palmer out as best captain first.
I too think the Pedro hype is a bit OTT, and acknowledge it might turn out to be a trap. And I can see people in a few weeks thinking why didn't I just go Welbeck. But I bought him regardless. Because with that price, those fixtures, penalties (well, we assume), and his importance as per Hürzeler, it was not something I wanted to take on. The what-could-be far outweighs the potential risk for me. (For context, I have Isak and Cunha and wanted to sell Raúl.)
Did Haaland/Semenyo to Cunha/Salah in 10. And I'm happy about my process around that decision, the reasons I made it for, and think it was a good decision. But it certainly, definitely, absolutely was not THAT good of a decision that it warranted the ridiculous swing it's caused since. So yeah, trying to remember that and stay humble. 😂
lateriser goes on about haaland for weeks hes blinded by haaland as he thinks haaland better than salah cause hes united fan hes so bias.no chance im selling salah liverpool winning league content creators been laughing at us all season....
salah playing AWFUL city team , Palmer playing AWFUL defence in villa and rested, Saka return to form against a bad west ham captaincy is ruining my BULB

Unsure if it’s Villa disrespect or too much Palmer kool-aid.
Genuinely pleased for you Pras, even though I’m going the opposite way 🤣 Well deserved despite the luck 👏👏👏
The best fpl gameweeks are the ones where you don't know who to captain. Definitely makes it a lot of fun.
This week for me
Torn between Saka & Jp....
@@FantasyPremierLeague891 I would go saka, I’ve got palmer but wish I had saka for captaincy this week
@@FantasyPremierLeague891 go with the form. Also, who is likely to concede the most goals.
@@JackMarquislife palmer at home has been quite good to be honest.

So true those lines "playing for the contract" !! I thought the same 😂
fyi he would have got 2 bonus even if he kept his shirt on, because of the late chances he missed

It was a strategy
@KailamiMwiinga yes a ridiculous one

Terrific pod as usual guys, so much useful information here but also great banter!
Really great content. ⚽️
Thank you.
Very interesting discussion throughout. 🎧
Fully agree with Lateriser in relation to defensive assets in FPL.
Watch the new series “ the day of the jackal”
You guys need to talk about Haaland being humble.
Do u think Cunha is essential if i already have wissa joao and 5 top mids?
No - but Wissa’s fixtures turn quite a bit after this week
@@Pras_fpl wow, didnt expect such a prompt from the legend! thanks, currently have tied up all money on the midfield with salah,son, palmer, bruno and Saka, i do want to change wissa to a cunha but then who’d u sell? Son or bruno? Cheers again

I keep hearing the term “variance” being thrown around. Can anyone define what “variance” means in terms of FPL?
A more comfortable version of luck

Hi team. I want to bring in one of Salah or Palmer this week, who is the best bet considering salah is facing city and palmer is facing Aston Villa. 😊
I think Palmer is top cap 14 too. I’d get him first.
@Pras_fpl thanks a ton! All the best with your climb up the FPL ranks.
I have always been trying to find is the ring leader for all the FPL calls before all content creators follow suit. This week its Andy who called Palmer out as best captain first.
Another great show. Looking forward to Monday with another healthy green in the bag.
Magnificent again.. really loving this every week!
I too think the Pedro hype is a bit OTT, and acknowledge it might turn out to be a trap. And I can see people in a few weeks thinking why didn't I just go Welbeck.

I'm bringing in Pedro this week, which one of Solanke or Evanilson should I transfer out for him?
Depends how much funds you need for future moves
What was the show called that Pras says he watched season 3 of? Come for the TV recommendations, stay for the FPL content haha
It's called "from"
Starts 3:25
There is plenty of games left But stopping with the template you are going nowhere
Imo J. Pedro is highly overrated because of his injury proneness and minutes risk. Would rather have Cunha, Wood or Jackson.
Rogers to Miriam or Jimenez to Pedro?
Timber or Raya?
Go second option LR
If Haaland was a million cheaper I’d say fair enough but it’s clear 15m for Haaland isn’t good value
Dropping Salah when he has has 8 Double digit scores out of twelve! No Chance Pras ..
