I had that straight after my Jan wildcard , bought Cahill just before he was dropped, Gardos trying to be clever and Debuchy the day he got injured, their teams all kept CS for those games without my players playing
Same here..(below)
Im keeping PVA and shipping Wolls for Zouma if that helps
No, it doesn't. I don't have a spare Chelsea slot. And I have used my FT to remove Jones for Schlupp in any case. Wollscheid will have to stay till GW 31/32 and PvA I will take my chances with. But as Balders says below it has been a royal pain.
My WC....Cahill, who got dropped immediately...Shawcross who got injured twice immediately...Debuchy who got a dislocated shoulder immediately...Toby who got injured immediately...I bet nobody can beat that.
Actually that is pretty extreme.
If you still have Cahill you might be OK with him now, he is playing much better again.
Swap PVA for Baird and Terry for Fonte and you've got my lot. It's not been pretty.
Unlucky.
I got Baird and Foster in on my Jan WC giving me a WBA triple up with wisdom 😯
Got Wisdom out for Rose but still struggling to move Baird out...Yep, that's the thing. There are more important transfers to do than defenders but when you can't field a team it gets problematic. 😉
Same. Jones, Wollscheid and Wisdom have affected me.
It's getting annoying now.
Why'd you remove your team link?
Because I wanted to.

I know how you feel here Ruth, as I too fell victim to the plague in the back. It was well planned though, so don't beat yourself up for it, just unlucky not to reap the rewards as the consequences were out of your control. I'm sure you'll bounce back form that rut though, no worries
Not a rut really, I have managed some small green arrows in recent weeks but mainly thanks to my midfield. Will be just below par this week with 54 and no hits.
It's just that these defender issues seem never-ending at the moment. They are dropping like flies. 😉Aye, it's hard to pinpoint where the smart money is to be had with even Kosc/Komps benched this week. Looks like Chelsea and Saints (ironically the best defenses), have the safer and albeit more highly owned defenders but it's a warranted investment IMO
Could always look at Swansea Ruth 😮
I wildcarded my team for the dgw becos i have of the above problems and abit more
Sanchez v Kun captaincy next week will be a close one , Sanchez for me I think
Nah. Kun all the way, not a close call for me.
I'm thinking Sanchez has found his mojo with the goal tonight , just what he needed to go on a roll now
I agree and am hoping so but West Ham are no rubbish side. Burnley, however, are. Also seems a really good game for a City pen...Burnley defenders seem to make a lot of diving challenges in the box whenever I see them.
Agüero for me, seams to perform better away..?
Kun will be the standout for sure
May go Sanchez or Hazard, not sure
Definitely Aguero for me
Repost
Any pressing transfers for anyone this week?
Lots of home players and those with PVA can probably hold.Austin to Costa still looking likely for me. I may actually start PvA this upcoming GW and just hope he plays. Worst case he gets an assist off the bench 😉
Thos
Hmmm... I'd think about holding off on that for 1 week. Palace are quite open so Austin has a good GW 29 fixture. Southampton are quite tight so Costa doesn't, he may score but I can't see a haul. GW 30 onwards is when you need Costa (and when I am planning to bring him in).
Dann and Delaney are bullies. I don't think Austin will find any pleasure against us. I also hate having an attacker going up against Palace 🙂 I see where you're coming from and I was considering something else but I think I'll just get Costa in as I had planned.
Ah. If you are a Palace fan it makes more sense. 😉
I have just though all along that Hull-Chelsea GW 30 is the game I want him back for. I'm happy to give Rooney one more game whilst he's playing upfront. Had the ball in the net again tonight but disallowed on a dodgy offside decision.
Eriksen > Coutinho possibly on the cards
or
Rose > TobyClichy out for me, dropping like a stone and will be priced out of my moves
In your situation definitely.
yeah defoe out costa in
Walters out Costa in -4 point hit before price rises costa looked good today on highlights plus has nice fixtures after next gameweeksorry that should have read cork in walters out -4
gonna wait to see if Eriksen does anything against QPR, but will prob sell him on for Sterling or Cou
I wouldn't get rid of Eriksen with his fixtures.
another for the bank
Keeping spurs players. Tempted to offload Austin but we shall see. Will probably save
Austin looking good for the next 3 but Costa is so tempting.
Only thing tempting about Costa is GW34
Sterling played a more defensive role as Ibe is out and Markovic didn't play there, Coutinho more advanced. I want to bring in one of them in for Cazorla this week and have no idea which
Sterling vs. Coutinho. Go.
Coutinho for me (price friendly)
I should''ve said regardless of price
Still Cout 😉
Coutinho oozing class and form. I'd go with him. Sterling has seemed like a shell of his former self for a while to me.
This
Silva needs to stop 🙁
he's missed 6 gw's as well
best value midfielder in the gameBought him at 8.9, selling him was my biggest mistake so far this season. He's real expensive now comparatively. Trying to shoehorn him back in to the team though...

just sickJesus. I've only owned him for that Hull home banker...errr I mean 2 pointer....in that whole run. Mistake of my season. Last season he burned me so many times I guess I still hadn't gotten over it to look at him objectively. Now the main question is will I overcome my stubbornness. History says no 🙂
Had him for his spell up front, then thought he'd cool off again :/
Yeah, me too. Figured he'd fade into the background with Yaya back, revert to the assister of the assister. Guy has an appetite for the spot light, it seems.
Far and away the best transfer Ive made all season. Got him after his first 90mins back and immediately delivered with 2 goals that game.and continued to rake in points ever since.
Is Bertrand eligible to play against Chelsea? Is he still on loan, or has that deal been made permanent?
Yes. The deal was made permanent.
Deal has been made, free to play
Thanks.
I've been terribly out of the loop.
£10.5m. Probably a good deal for both clubs.
Clichy, bought in on the wildcard, played all but 2 matches for the season, then 4 blanks in a row.
City defence is just a no go at the moment,
So true. Can't believe I have him and dropped Zouma. Never foresaw him being dropped 4 in a row mind you ;(
Me neither, had Clichy in the scout picks!
Panti
Clyne Bertie Terry
this is my defence next week.....crazy? also have Krul, PvA and WollHave a feeling I'll be dreaming of Danny Rose tonight.
Inside thoughts Andy, inside thoughts 😉
And his 3 bonus of course...... 🙂
Might do:
Jones>Moreno
Liverpool don't convince me defensively just yet but his attacking threat is nice as well.
He's playing LM essentially 🙂Ever since that spurs game I've liked Moreno. Won't trust him though!
He doesn't make those runs anymore but he gets his crosses in (although most are poor).
not convinced defensively 😯 what more do you want?
I've got him. top pick imoAs a Liverpool fan I have to have one mini heart-attack a game.
A lot less than last season though!
If you can cover him for the United and Arsenal game, good move.
Could wait though IMO
Man Utd next 5 includes
TOT liv MCI che
To me, Liverpool have started winning games (i.e. earning wins)
Whereas Man Urd for some time have been not losing.
Man Utd aren't earning wins. They've just had opposition who aren't turning up.
Like tonight, they somehow won while playing poorly again.
Simply because Newcastle didnt take their chances.
After this next month or so, surely we'll see ManUtd fall out of the top 4?Don't be so sure.
Agree
But will be a real test.
I would be completely stunned if United finish this season in the top four.
Impossible. We win even when we can barely kick a football.
😆
ikr 😡
😀
Yep Liverpool on a roll will overtake by end of season
Liverpool had a rough patch but lost their games.
Utd are in their rough patch but are winning.
It depends it Utd turns it around or not.
Arsenal have hit some great form too.i hope so
they don't deserve champions league football, and they don't need the money
i know football is about winning, but they have had extreme look. i don't rate Van Gaal at all. why did he sign Falcao? He sets the team up poorly yet has been winning..i know it's a contradiction in a way but next month is a real test for him.
Pool could easily get 3rd with the way they are plying.Just can't see how based on current form, Pool won't oust them tbh. I think next season will be United's real contention up there IMO
Two weeks time: Liv v Man U. Should end the speculation
Is Puncheon the best option for a midfielder under £8.2m at the moment.
Have Sanchez, Hazard, Silva, Ameobi
I'm annoyingly 0.1 short of getting oscar.
Countinho or Henderson?
Mane?
If QPR win this game in hand ... Everton.are 3 points off relegation 😯
I'd love it. But then Utd will poach Barkley/Stones for cheap. 🙁
lol martinez working his magic
The team with the most possession in their own third in the league I'm sure of it 😀
His post match inteview was cringe. Well out of his depth.
and pool nearly signed him. Phew
Help me out here peeps if you would...

Trying to figure out the best transfer here. I think I definitely want rid of Eriksen after the DGW. This is the first time I've owned him....even though Spurs have good fixtures after GW29, so do SOTON and I like Mane as a differential, and I think a City double up will be more profitable than a Spurs double up. It comes down to City mid or Liverpool mid for coverage....City's fixtures might just swing it...
A) Eriksen > Silva
B) Eriksen > Yaya
C) Eriksen > Coutinho
D) Eriksen > Sterling
E) Eriksen > Silva / Mane > Henderson/Coutinho/Sterling (-4)
F) something elseI'd rather lose Austin.
Agreed, definitely has a lower ceiling than Erik , I'd hold onto Erik until after the Leicester game IMO
I think I will sell Kane before I sell Eriksen 🙂 Wakey is giving me ideas about Sakho....
😯 Woah, what is this I hear?
You heard me!
You don't find Kramaric or Berahino more appealing? They could both be good options! Leicester have great attacking fixtures before the DGW
(HUL, tot, WHM, wba, SWA), may be his time to gather steam before the DGW
Or maybe even Gomis....I don't. Kramaric not my cup of tea and Berahino just too reliant on those counterattacking against the run of play goals with Pulis in charge. Gomis could be a good shout though. I have liked Sakho though all year, have yet to own him, and they've got a good run coming up.
Well that's what I was thinking - Austin to Sakho after the QPR run of cpl EVE and west ham are done with Arsenal.
Hmmmm, you're probably right on the Berahino part and aye their team isn't the best for picking out attacking returns.
Guess Hammers attack is more appealing though as they've proven they're a great team going forward when Downing, Valencia and Sakho are all fit and firing.
I'd still play with Gomis though, Siggy back in I think will multiply his appeal soon.Yeah I do like Gomis too. All good picks. And now I'm strongly considering going without Costa...ugh. Will be a long week of deliberation.
Wakey make's a great point though, maybe you're better off waiting for Costa come the DGW and hope his YC comes before then.
Crazy how many genuine budget options there are now, Austin, Bera, N' Doye, Gomis, etc
Then again, are any of them captaincy picks though? Or have the explosive potential as a Costa, Sturridge or Rooney? Not sure, most wouldn't feel comfortable captaining any of them bar Austin who's proven he can score double digits.
You can always argue it's not smart money though, when that extra 4-5.0m can be put to good use
hmmmm
QPR have cpl EVE after the DGW
Thinking of hanging on for that, whilst City have bur WBA cpl coming up
a
Doosra's team is doing well in his absence so far they are doing it for the gaffer!
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/3727/event-history/28/He's gone up rankings 😆
Highest he has been since gw 3 😀
That's great to see I wonder if someone could get him the message '32 k gw rank ' to hopefully give him a lift
Yeah it would give him a smile anyway.
Was I stupid to get costa back in?
25% of overall active teams in fpl have him but only 2% in the top 1000 !!! (according to fplfix stats)I'll be getting him with my transfer this gameweek I think. Not so sure if it's a good idea given the way Chelsea have been playing recently but whatever. I think his differential status at this point is too good to be true even if he has been off the boil a bit. Could easily come off.
His next five are:
15 Mar 13:30 Gameweek 29 Southampton (H)
22 Mar 16:00 Gameweek 30 Hull (A)
04 Apr 17:30 Gameweek 31 Stoke (H)
12 Apr 13:30 Gameweek 32 QPR (A)
18 Apr 17:30 Gameweek 33 Man Utd (H)
Surely goals/goal chances in those considering the service at the moment with hazard and oscar willian?
Only risk is a rest before the champions league.You'd think so, but the other side of the coin keeps reminding me of all the value to be had in forwards elsewhere. He and Chelsea have been far from explosive lately.
Suspension is a bit of a risk.
I think any rest will be by taking him off early occasionally when a match is all but over.
Is Ki Sung-yueng a cheap option now? Also will allow cash for Costa at some stage?
Go for it for sure, starts, scores when he wants, ki to the attack as well
😆
cork at 4.3 is even better value
mm, doesnt score enough mate
far point but for a makeweight on the bench for fpl its alright there are no cheaper regular starters.
Fantastic value...
Wow, Giggs didn't even celebrate the goal. 😆
Missed that watching live.
He actually did celebrate it until LVG got in his face! 😀

Right? This guy has been in every price change this week it seems, odd times
Cuadrado is falling like a stone, casuals?
Glad I got Moreno on my Jan WC instead of Gardos, one of the best choices I've made recently.Yay for Lescott.
Might get Cuadrado in soon could do with a cheap sub 4m 5th mid 😆
@Rupert the horse
Austin has had only two fewer shots at goal all season than Aguero..and scored only two fewer goals...What value is there in Austin > Costa (apart from DGW34)...Well when you put it like that...... 🙁
Costa may or may not score a few....he may even outscore the pair of them..but on the balance of probability Austin and Costa are a pretty even match...why pay the 4.0 mill extra ?
You're talking too much sense and I'm doubting myself now. Hmpf.
Aye, I've now completely doubted my Sturridge pick 😥
So much value in the budget strikers this yearAustin is an odd ball for sure.
Two years ago I spotted Lukaku and Benteke in the similar price bracket and kept them for the entire season...Exactly the same stats as the premium RVP and Suarez picks, at the time, and in the end they delivered just fine (it meant I had premium mids all season)...Austin is the same.
Better service and qpr are terrible away are two of the main reasons.
If I had austin I would keep him
For the record
Aguero 96 goal attempts 17 goals
Austin 94 goal attempts 15 goals
Costa 65 goal attempts 17 goals
But of course we need to factor in fact that the money saved by having Austin over Costa means Ivanovic is available...no brainer..or any other premium pick you care to name..
Assuming you need the money of course.
I was all set to buy Costa but would have meant downgrading Silva to Ki.
Last minute I changed mind and have gone Siggy & Giroud
Will prob get costa assuming he's not banned in a few weeksAye...Although wIth a good TV (as most have by now) an Aguero > (DGW)Costa pick and back again..is easy...Having said that Aguero's two shots this GW hardly inspires confidence...
Wakey, on the topic of value -
What are your thoughts on Sturridge right now? Bad investment?
54 points, red arrow 😯
Unlucky.
70pts > Green 😎yeah the average in the top 1000 is 56
Hope it will turn into green after this weekend!
if it goes with the majority in the top 100 you might the only difference in your team is font insted of clyne and ozil instead of silva
on and pantilimon
Clichy to Ivanovic this week.
Very nice, straight up?
Yeah. Got the money after ditching Sanchez and not Cazorla ;(
Doing Cresswell -> Zouma this week and going to take -4 to do Cazorla -> Silva/Ozil, but I can't decide which, as if I go for Silva, I have no Arsenal mid cover.
Has Walcott done a poo in Wengers office?
smells that way doesnt it?
Started off well when he came back then phased out. He seems to have a thing for Rosicky or the ox these days
Can't defend. This is a problem if Arsenal are a bit light in the double pivot.
I ditched him this week and not looking back, same could be said for Arsenal, they don't desperately need him at the moment...
Zouma becoming a decent option? I suppose the only problem is Chelsea spots will be valuable ahead of the DGW
Try to get Ivanovic/Terry if you can.
Mourinho seems to really like him..that doesn't come easy at Chelsea, as many players have found out.
Did Zouma plat defensive mid? See Cahill and Terry played.
If so he was covering for Matic
Cazorla -> Silva
Jones/Wollscheid -> Bellerin
One for GW29, one for GW30. Which one do I do first?Considered doing both for a hit?
Haven't considered but am considering now ;p
Which defender do I get rid of?Doesn't matter. They both need to go
Probably Jones out first as he's more expensive
Looks like 50 is the safety score in LMS before hits.
can you buy your way back into the league?I feel that the ref decisions and the pitch went against me when I got knocked out around christmas! 😀
Save your money, you'll just get knocked out again later 😛
🙂
Nice.
Wonder what the qualification score for the cups will be, hopefully lower!Forgot about qualifying. Expect it at be least the safety score tbh.
You're probably right TM, and I'm guessing that average will boost to at least 60 with most having 3 DGWers and Kane(c). Let's hope not 😉
Is Henderson the real deal? Worth bringing him in for Caz instead planned Bertrand>Ivan/Terry?
Have Sanchez and Giroudmixed fixtures in the next few
16 Mar 20:00 Gameweek 29 Swansea (A)

suppose I should do sterling to silva eh?

or save?That or lose Mane.
How are ya champ? Haven't seen you much on here 😮
I think you definitely need to downgrade someone in midfield if you want to upgrade up front, albeit I'm not sure if you wanna stick with the 352/343 . Guessing you'll bench Mane next week and play 343 right? If so, I'd hold fire, Sterling hasn't been at his best but is still highly capable of scoring, I'd keep for now. That's a good front seven for the week, you're definitely better off with 2 FT's to see where you wanna go with your team long term and have more room to meaneuver IMOgood mate you?
Sound advice cheers. Kinda like having the options in my front 8. Gives me weekly differentials. Think you're right about saving cheersAlright mate, no problem Champ
9 years, 2 months agoIt has been a catalogue of defender problems since wildcard even though I didn't go with any ultra-cheapies.
>Wisdom had to be replaced, I went with Alderweireld who has taken ages to get fit
>PvA has been in and out of the team
>Jones got ill and missed 2 clean sheets in the very games I wanted him for, I have just replaced him with Schlupp
>Wollscheid gets injured and misses a clean sheet, he'll need replacing when Stoke's fixtures turn and may not be fit for GW 29 when I need him to play
I wanted starting defenders so I didn't have to waste FTs on them but only Terry has been reliable. Only consolation is that a lot of others have been affected too I guess.
