[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@FPLClicker FYI I'm going Haaland 🧢 Triple Chelsea is enough coverage.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@FPLClicker Yeah, I think so.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

Sell Saka and King for...

Option 1: Palmer + Rudoni

Option 2: Mbeumo + Manzambi

@FPLClicker I've had the armband on Haaland most of the week, but switched it to JP today. Haaland is the safest pick, but Emery scares me. He always manages to get his team to show up in the big games 🙈

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@FPLProp No context. START Muharemovic.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@FPLClicker Are you sticking with Haaland as captain? :)

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

If no new info emerges, this is probably what I'll be doing later today..

Saka ➡️ Palmer
King ➡️ Rudoni

Still not fully decided on captaincy yet. Kinda feel like I'd be too invested in Chelsea if I triple up and hand one of them the armband. But Spurs are 💩

#FPL #FPLCommunity

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@FPLBazuu I'd bench Gvardiol.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@TheNumberGameX Van Hecke probably

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

Best Saka replacement if you've already got Rogers and JP?

#FPL #FPLCommunity

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

Who are you putting the armband on? 🧢

#FPL #FPLCommunity

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@DarthMoon81 Haha, you obviously have a pretty strong opinion 😅

I'll wait for Arteta's presser and see what I'll do. Not too worried about the price drops atm.

Could either do Saka + King to Palmer + Rudoni = 0.4m ITB, or do a straight swap for Mbeumo = 1.7m ITB.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

My first thought after Saka's injury is to just bench him and start King this GW.

If I were to sell him, it'd probably be for Mbeumo or Tavernier. But then again, that'd only be to bench King against Coventry.

Kinda think having 3 FTs next GW is better.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@4lifeAv I'd lean towards option 2 and get MGW and Rogers. Then you can bring in another Arsenal asset whenever it makes sense.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

Best Saka replacement? 🤔

Saka Injury Report ❌

Saka was subbed off after only minutes against Bayern.

He attempted a wide pass but didn't strike the ball cleanly, seeming to injure the lateral quadriceps (vastus lateralis).

He immediately signaled to the bench and appeared devastated, often a sign of a non-minor injury.

Likely a grade 2-3 muscular strain.

Grade 1: a few weeks.
Grade 2: 1-2 months.
Grade 3: several months.

Saka likely out until after the IB break.

Well likely get more news in the coming day or two as he’ll have a scan tomorrow.

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@4lifeAv I guess it depends. Which other Arsenal asset do you have in mind with option 2?

I like Raya, but I'm assuming you wouldn't have the funds for him after making those two transfers?

[Born2FailInGame @Born2FailInGame]

@FPLLiveApp Yeah, I'm pretty much expecting Saka to be ruled out completely during the pressers.
