How come? Realise it's not exciting, but he's going to get 170+ pts and lets you do exciting with the rest of your team.

Ive got KDH and Raindeers as my cheap options, think they have a higher ceiling for returns, not interested in Adefcon and the min really. 2 5.5-5s is enough

I've got all 3, but benching KDH generally (not this week thankfully!). Ceilings are all good if you rotate players and nail it, but if you can basically guarantee someone is gonna shit you points every week and you never have to transfer them out then I don't see the value in passing that up mate

yh an option for sure and something worth considering for Haaland and Salah drafts, I'd likely go down that route on wildcard or similar

Yeah I very nearly did that this week cuz I had Palmer & Saka, but fortunately (it appears so far) I just got rid of one and started KDH. Midfield looks pretty bereft of good mid-priced players atm so it's definitely viable.

If he could get that many then of course I would be interested. But I think that's a huge overestimate. I suspect he gets ~2pts or ~4pts in most games, with the occasional ~7 thrown in. Probably 130-140 for the season and I would rather use the spot for those that can genuinely push 170+

He's going to get those 4pts as a floor in most games is the thing. He only missed out on defcon by 1 in the first two games where Forest controlled possession, but that's rare. He's just hit it with half an hour of the game left, the guy's relentless.

He will miss it more than you think. When Europe kicks in and with Luiz signed, he will be hooked early a decent amount. Can see him being a really frustrating own.

*he's on 9 defcon atm actually, I've definitely jinxed this! 😂 All will be revealed, but I think in terms of being able to predict outcomes it's a relatively easy one to predict because he's been so consistently hitting the numbers.

I did think of you when I saw that. Very unfortunate. He was in the bonus too before West Ham scored.

Three games in row Anderson has been on 8+ DCs at HT and ended up on 11.

Yeah that’s pretty unlucky. I think one of them he actually got 12 and fpl screwed it up too. He’ll deliver over time though
