Cl is tough because goals are so random. Real easy to identify the right players but so hard to get them together on the same rosters. Also europe results can be more random than epl. Esp true with road favs.

Only way to win is hardcore stack team that has a lot if goals then get good defender/keeper stack from another game and a forward /mfer from another game who has a high floor. I went from koke in all lineups to alnost half and stacked arsenal with atleti instead of dortmund... oops.


Ex today:
subasic/kurzawa. (Or moya/siquira)
Piszcheck
Aubamayang
koke
Reus
Griezman(or mandzukic dep on cash)
Calhanoglu

Would have been a potential line up with thus strat. When ive followed this ive usually had my best lineups.

is mondogoal basically the only option for UK based players? fan duel and draftkings both seem to be restricted to NA now I investigate.

Yap think so

ty - lemme think some more about that

Still recovering after the midweek battering. My weds should have been much better but 1-2 tweaks turned top 5 teams into marginal cashes and marginal cashes into loses. Coupled with my best roster not getting entered I to anything significant.

Pretty confident about this weekend slate, but soton looks the best team in my model and everyone will be on them. Need them not to go insane again like last week.

Swa/brom both looks to be the sleepers this weekend and arsenal is always capable of a goal onslaught.

Still no faith in pool but they should have a hefty shot count. Could this be balos breakout weekend?

So hard not to load up on Southampton lads this Saturday.

Gonna be hard to leave one of siggy tadic or sterling out tomorrow

I like brom alot. Ive been fading liverpool a ton. Considering it again this week but have a bad feeling they may go off. May stick sterling in one lineup for some protection.

Podolski if he starts could be a great gpp play.

May just stick with my plan and avoid the plop till sturridge is back.

Feel like sterling is the easiest drop of the bunch since no set piece duty = lower floor.

Coutinho seems like best option if you want pool.midfielders. if you want full pull stack you shoud pair them with brom. Berahino, balo, sterling, coutinho, brunt. Front 5.

If you want to go full blown plop id recommend:

Fabianski, wisdom, pocognoli, cout, sterling, balo. Leaves you 16k for flex and f so ton of good options.

pelle/mane

Sanchez/poldi

Tadic/mane

Berahino/bony

Welbeck(on sanch)/ox

I love brom a lot too and definitely want beharinho in my lineup. Understand no set piece duty but sterling is essentially playing forward tomorrow and I'm confident balo won't start and sterling will either play in behind or flat out partner lambert

Interesting how are they lining up tomorrow?

I mean I obviously have no idea but with balos form and the shirt swapping incident I'd be very surprised if he starts

Did you update your blog for the weekend duck? Can you link? I'm without a computer atm

No i didn't, been hella slammed this week and decided to spend time updating my prediction model for games instead. Took me about 6 hours or so, but will basically take me 10 minutes to update each week instead of the 3 or so hours every week I was spending previously.

Cliff notes for whats good.

Brom / Soton are the prime teams for players
Swans could be a sneaky pick for a huge blowout.
Arsenal/Pool rated similarly and either could go off for a huge game. Avoid any other teams.

in to win

Wow Balotelli starts. I have no idea where to go with Liverpool as far as DFS is concerned

Ox or Cazorla? I'm $900 over budget on a team I really like and can't decide who I want to get out. Could drop Bertrand for a cheaper defender too I guess and keep mane in the flex

for cash, cazorla way higher ceiling and will take most set pieces rate him almost as highly as tadic/di maria in my model esp with ozil out.

for gpp ox is good since he wont be highly owned.

Thanks

Got one with moreno/lallana and another with Bertrand/Cazorla

Abel hernandez or Ben arfa might not be bad cheeky gpp plays considering liverpools total inability to keep a clean sheet

Come on, Swanz. I wanna win da mahnies.

Really great shape in all lineups
