There is no denying the fact that Haaland has been giving a lot of Fantasy managers a huge boost with the points he keeps racking up. Sometimes my whole team would play terribly and his points tally alone would give me respectable points. I was a bit reluctant to change him since I heard he has a 75% chance of featuring but still, I didn't want to change him because let's face it, what are my options, really? 😂🤣
My team did okay despite not having Haaland in my line up and if I had him, I feel my point tally would have been better even.
I have to admit that I am really impressed with Newcastle United this season and gradually they are moving, beating teams and enjoying individual brilliance too. The backline gives me points and Almiron has been impressive ever since I got him. He is also enjoying the best start to any season so far and his goal tally already has been by far compared to many seasons before. I love players like him that would just spring up a surprise and you would wonder how they are doing it. I hope he doesn't jump the gun and chase after a so-called big team. Newcastle United is good for his development and he should stay put.
I'm indifferent to Gabriel Jesus. He is a decent striker and he has been playing decent but he hasn't given me exceptional points as Haaland and sometimes as Harry Kane. I am mulling over when to change him and who to replace him with. If anyone can give me a hint on that, I would appreciate it. I need to change him and I can't take Wilson either because his points can't be guaranteed.
Arsenal continued to impress and we don't know if this is the season they would show us that they can't fade off as they are known for over the years. Odegaard played his heart out and Gabriel Jesus gave me decent points too. Saliba and Gabriel still impress at the back for Arsenal when called upon and I have Saliba. He's making the back line his own even though he still needs to improve as any player should.
Tottenham... I have mixed reactions about this team. They impress you today and then disappoint you the next. They play the first half as though they didn't train and then rally around in the second half. They have shown that they always leave it late before they give their best and thankfully it has worked for them for a few games now but can they sustain late dramas as the season progresses?
All eyes need to be on Brighton due to how they have been impressive this season. Graham Potter faced his old side and he got a reminder of how good they are after a 4-1 thumping. It was a bad day in the office for Chelsea and Graham Potter. It wasn't the kind of welcome he would be hoping for.
Another team that got a shocking result would be Liverpool. Leeds United beat Liverpool at Anfield by 2-1. Liverpool can't seem to get themselves this season and it begs the question as to if they are truly missing Mane or if it is just a coincidence and a loss of form at the wrong time. If they don't arrest these unpleasant results, they would be further down the table which would make it harder to even catch up with the rest for a top 4 berth. Van Djik dragged my point while Tarkowski gave me a decent 6 but I kept him on the bench because I was thinking Liverpool would win against Leeds.
Premier League is full of drama and that's what we signed up for. Let's hope we get some more drama this weekend.
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

I think we were in the same boat because I was unable to take him out too. It's good to have him back and a lot of managers would be excited about that. You got good points. I fell short by 20 points behind.
So sorry about that and I hope you make up for the points this week. There is no perfect formula for this FPL.
This is very accurate. No formula. We just keep trying.
Absolutely.
