@economist_fpl Depends on what people's objectives are. If it's all about Overall Rank and they are still 5 millionth after 10GWs then yeah it sucks.
Usually mini leagues keep you interested regardless
@economist_fpl Still hot on Tarkowski with Branthwaite injury?
You're also taking on Joao Pedro another high % owned player. Sure you need to take on both him and Salah?
#FPL managers cling to big hitters like comfort blankets.
I dare you to try a no Salah, no Haaland draft.
Gakpo +ยฃ7m of upgrades can outscore a Salah draft.
@economist_fpl has a nice explanation of what's holding you back.

๐จ #FPL Thread for #FPLCommunity: Why itโs OK to go WITHOUT Haaland & Salah ๐จ
(Yes, even if that sounds crazy ๐)
Weโre using Prospect Theory ๐ - a behavioural economics idea to explain why this draft without the โbig 2โ might actually be rational.

@economist_fpl Being able to start with and sell Salah more easily than going without and buying is also a factor here - beyond purely about the players perform.
Tough strategic choice.
