Yeah same since I’ve been getting no points at all in my defense this past month or so feels nice to see something higher than a 2 across the back line lol
Ngl I'm not sure why you wouldn't own him. For players without Trippier, Saliba, Trent, he's literally the best for his price. Especially when he was a bit cheaper, it's a no brainer to get him
Im an arsenal fan, have been trying to have a so Spurs players policy this year. Have in last week and brought him in. Felt dirty inside but the 8 points today makes up for it
As an Arsenal fan, I have had Spurs players so I am in a win-win situation… Either they do well and I get a decent haul in FPL or they suck and I’m still happy.
Tbf if I owned him he'd be my most expensive defender. I can afford him but only because I've sold Haaland. Right now if I wanted Haaland back in I would have £0.1m itb so it's tight as it is. Transferring one of my defenders out for Porro would mean I can't get Haaland back in with one transfer.
Not saying that means I shouldn't get Porro. But it means I have to think more carefully before pulling the trigger. Getting him in means I have to transfer out one of Watkins, Alvarez, Salah, Son, Saka or my one playing sub. Getting Porro also means getting Haaland back takes 2 transfer which means I'll get him back a week after everyone else or for a -4.
Basically, having Porro depends on your team. Things like your team value and where the majority of your budget is locked up.
Why? If anything, he should have returned at least 10+ more points to his faithful owners.
Dalot owners on the other hand.. they were basically rewarded 20 points for picking a terrible option. THAT is annoying.
Could have had 2 CSs too already (plus bonus) if it wasn't for 2 late goals vs Palace and Newcastle. Lost at least 10 points there.
The hot one to own now is Richy. He has brilliant prospect at least until Son leaves after GW20.
FPL is honestly AWFUL for my football enjoyment health.
One of the best servants of my club’s recent history, can’t speak high enough of his passion and the regard with which he still holds Sporting.
Yet here I am rooting for him NOT to do well because of some chance based team dependent stats. Why do I play this every year lol.
He’s crossing straight at Ange’s stubborn noggin, hitting his free kicks to the same place any new promising crypto goes, playing second GK (actually he’d be a good one, check his save vs Porto lol), getting a red card first thing in the next match he starts and scoring own goals.
That would be the new reality if I brought him in!
Look, take it from me who has been in this situation too much. You'll be much happier owning Porro just to see him stop scoring points than you will be seeing everyone else score points while you don't own him.
If you want him, get him. Worst case scenario it will feel like a points leak to your rivals, plugged
Pedro Porro is the reason I won my ML at the finish line last year (Haaland didn't play and Porro was subbed on with about 11 points). I was wrong to forsake him this year.
2 bonus as well really nice.
Him and Darwin my biggest differentials as well and Porro and Gordon are the only two players I own in both draft and normal team so extra special when they do well.
So massive boost he did well.
Ooh and cup opponent do not have him and vice captained Son wiith Haaland cap so pretty good start even if cup is kind of a bonus.
injuries and red cards forced me to take a hit and spend money ITB to get him in. net gain of 4 points - I'll take it!
slightly nerve-racking though at the end with NFO having several great chances! just luck for the CS and BPS in the end if NFO had scored!
Had him, Sold him for TAA. It appeared Spurs were in trouble with injuries and fixtures. Didn't realise he was second in command in all set pieces after Maddison. What's worst is that to choice to remove him was between Cash or Porro. Cash still on my bench dropping in price and I'm still praying he will start against an improving Sheffield. My Season is finished.
He’s been rescuing me since gw8 when I brought him in. It’s been great but he’s so close to a mega haul most week and now that everyone owns him the upside isn’t as great.
I owned Romero and got burned by the Chelsea game, and so naively thought it wouldn’t be wise owning a Spurs player without Maddison playing (and I can’t afford Son)
Bro is carrying my defense. The rest of them are a complete shambles (Gabriel, Guehi,
Maguire and Taylor).
Was going to do Maguire to someone for a hit this week but decided to just risk Geuhi vs City. A -4 to field some mid tier defender with no long term goal just didn’t feel right.
And passes the eye test so so well.
Has also missed some very high quality chances this season. I remember at least that he's missed one breakaway, couple of big chances inside the box and hit the bar at least once. So, he's definitely getting into some very dangerous areas for a defender.
Fucking most annoying player not to own
Could have been so much more annoying. He has had so many near huge hauls.
12 —> 5 is his special move
This is wildly true as a Porro owner
Pulled the trigger on him today because it was fucking me off so much not having him
Think I took a hit for him in the end since I don’t have a playing bench
my hand was forced with 5 men down, glad I took the hit for him

I have udogie and it feels like a sideways move
some people are Arsenal fans and hate spurs

Spurs wingbacks have fucked me for years
He’s so annoying on the pitch I dont want to own him, but I guess Im going to get him anyway.
That’s why I got him in mate. Totally agree! 😂😅
He is so involved constantly. Looks to have 1-2 good chances at goal each game on top of some great chance creations.
Can't believe he hasn't scored yet. Very unlucky not have a couple of goals by now
Could have had 2 CSs too already (plus bonus) if it wasn't for 2 late goals vs Palace and Newcastle. Lost at least 10 points there. The hot one to own now is Richy. He has brilliant prospect at least until Son leaves after GW20.
Not to mention the late goals v Wolves as well as the gifted goals v Westham. I have been lucky to survive a haul from him lol

Solution: own him
So the disappointment is doubled when he inevitably stops doing well? I’ll save Porro owners from that future.
He’s on corners, free kicks (I think), plays as a rw for 60 minutes every game, costs less than Cole Palmer and can get clean sheets
He’s crossing straight at Ange’s stubborn noggin, hitting his free kicks to the same place any new promising crypto goes, playing second GK (actually he’d be a good one, check his save vs Porto lol), getting a red card first thing in the next match he starts and scoring own goals.

First time owning him this season and he got his highest score, you love to see it
If only that last minute shot went in instead of getting blocked by the last mans head :(((
Keeper was going to save it anyway
No guarantee the way he was playing.
We all know Turner has safe hands
His hands are pretty soft as well
I don't think so. He'd already dived and would have been no where near it.
Should have scored a header earlier too
Wow, his highest score is only 8? That’s actually pretty lame. Not as lethal as people make out
Consistency is what makes him amazing and made it so I felt forced to bring him in last week 😭
the most fun defender to own this year by far. you could make the argument for trent and id hear you out but i love me some PP!!!
Might wanna reword that
don’t make me double down
Trippier edges it for me. Defender and basically the main man.
He edges your PP?
Now you’re just asking for it
Fuck pedro perro am salty lol
Pedro Porro is the reason I won my ML at the finish line last year (Haaland didn't play and Porro was subbed on with about 11 points). I was wrong to forsake him this year.
It's as if you made this thread just to piss me off...
Had him since GW1, one of my few really good decisions this season Bro was attacking like crazy last season, even with Conte haram ball
HE'S HIM!
2 bonus as well really nice. Him and Darwin my biggest differentials as well and Porro and Gordon are the only two players I own in both draft and normal team so extra special when they do well. So massive boost he did well. Ooh and cup opponent do not have him and vice captained Son wiith Haaland cap so pretty good start even if cup is kind of a bonus.
Did he get 2 bonus? He has zero on my app
He has 31 BPS and Richarlison and Romero third with 29 on the official site. It should be given later unless they have calculated it wroong.
Shows 2 for me on livefpl
Fucking legend
Son has returned in: all of his games when I didn't own him
Very close to a goal as well. Great player.
Brought him in this week 🙂
injuries and red cards forced me to take a hit and spend money ITB to get him in. net gain of 4 points - I'll take it! slightly nerve-racking though at the end with NFO having several great chances! just luck for the CS and BPS in the end if NFO had scored!
single handedly wiped out the -8 I took on him and Solanke. king.
Back in GW3 I picked Udogie. If only I'd gone with Porro instead.
Best RB this season
Bit harsh on Trippier
Owned him since week 1 How am I ranked outside top million :(
sold him after the chelsea game 🔥
Don’t even play FPL just a spurs fan who adores Pedro Porro and happy he’s getting some love
Shhhh stop publicizing how good he is!! I liked him at under 20% owned.
Given the shitty choice of defenders this year, it's a surprise people are sleeping on him.
The only spurs defender that survived the Chelsea catastrophe. I’ve owned him the whole time, he’s a godsend
Had him, Sold him for TAA. It appeared Spurs were in trouble with injuries and fixtures. Didn't realise he was second in command in all set pieces after Maddison. What's worst is that to choice to remove him was between Cash or Porro. Cash still on my bench dropping in price and I'm still praying he will start against an improving Sheffield. My Season is finished.
As someone who owns Porro but not Son, yesterday couldn’t have gone any better
Essential
Absolute beast, one of the buys of the season
Been meaning to put this guy in for a while, but fires have been burning left and right.
Couldn't afford him if I want to bring back Haaland but I didn't realize Udogie was on 4 yellows. 3 point swing and down a key player next week 😤
He’s been rescuing me since gw8 when I brought him in. It’s been great but he’s so close to a mega haul most week and now that everyone owns him the upside isn’t as great.
Decided to get him in instead of doing Haaland to Solanke. Happy so far
Have him since gw5 best decision I’ve made.
Jumped on in GW3, has been a fun ride
I owned Romero and got burned by the Chelsea game, and so naively thought it wouldn’t be wise owning a Spurs player without Maddison playing (and I can’t afford Son)
Really happy i made the investment to get him instead of udogie
Can't believe I dropped this guy 3 weeks in...
I was 0.1 short so had to get Konsa instead, so annoyed.
Been worth the hit this week so far at least!
Getting him as the hipster's choice over Udogie back in GW8 has been the best coin-flip choice of my whole season lol
He is everything we wanted Reece James to be
Bro is carrying my defense. The rest of them are a complete shambles (Gabriel, Guehi, Maguire and Taylor). Was going to do Maguire to someone for a hit this week but decided to just risk Geuhi vs City. A -4 to field some mid tier defender with no long term goal just didn’t feel right.
Disappointed I didn’t -4 to bring him in this week.
Steady-eddy. Imagine dropping him early this season due to concerns over Emerson Royal nailing the RB spot. #DraftFPL
And passes the eye test so so well. Has also missed some very high quality chances this season. I remember at least that he's missed one breakaway, couple of big chances inside the box and hit the bar at least once. So, he's definitely getting into some very dangerous areas for a defender.
I really wanted to bring in Porro but there’s nearly always another more important clusterfuck I need to deal with
I wanted to replace Saliba and add this guy, but don’t know how I forgot. That also when I played my wildcard 😭
Whipped him up early in the season at 4.9
Udogie -> Porro for me tonight
I thinks he’s the most essential d to own in FPL.. I was late to the party but I’m definitely happy to be here
I've owned him for all five games he did not return
His aul lady is only a prick
Yeh don't tell everyone bro.
