    Anyone else transferring in Costa instead of Lukaku this week?

    1. Gianfranco Zola
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Me and captaining

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Doing probably same.

    2. rohan
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Yes

    3. FISSH
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      He's being considered, but he is just so unpredictable

      1. Make United Great Again
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Surely the Chelsea slump will stop at some point. I might take a gamble on him

    4. Meinhoff
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Me too probably

    5. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Nope. Needs to change his attitude before I go near him.

    6. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      I am on that at the moment but i am fortunate enough to have played my WC after last GW so still have time to decide - have a feeling costa will raise his game

  2. Gianfranco Zola
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Apparently Ivanovic is out for 3 weeks. Great news for Azpi owners.

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      and the Zumba ones too.

    2. FISSH
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Great news for Ivan too

    3. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Who would take his place?

      1. Sailboats
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Azpi (Baba at LB) or Zouma.

    4. saihtam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      But Mourinho still plays him...

    5. RustyBz
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Great news for Chelsea

    6. Eden Hazardous
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      sauce?

  3. FISSH
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Lukaku or Kane guys?

    1. Jape
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Go for the guy in good form

    2. internal error
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      not the ugly one

    3. Meinhoff
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Romelu Lukaku

    4. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Lukaku for form but he's burned me so many times that i would choose Kane

    5. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Lukaku. Kane has the stats but can't score for some reason.

      1. ragonian
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Agreed. Lukaku will ALWAYS let you down.

        1. Jafalad
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Read again, darling.

        2. ragonian
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          sorry, was agreeing with Bobby

      2. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Kane scored for England yesterday - could be what he needed to get going.

        1. saihtam
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Why are people telling he scored?
          It was own goal.

          1. Pompel
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 5 months ago

            OK, didnæt knwo that - he was credited on the live stream report I watched.

        2. Jafalad
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          That was said after the previous ENG game. 😕

    6. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Probably Lukaku, their stats are very similar but Lukaku is in better form, and is cheaper.

    7. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Lukaku

      1. Jereme Halliday
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Costa

    8. 1zverGGademN
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Lukaku ofc

  4. Bobby_Baggio
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Morning all. Whats the latest from yesterdays games injury wise?

    1. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Woodcock is out 🙁

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        lol

  5. rocrocodile
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    1FT

    A) Aguero -> Pellé (for free)
    B) Spend -4 to get rid of Clyne or Targett (other def: Kolarov / Francis / Catchart)

    1. Big Sum
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      A) Aguero -> Pellé (for free)

    2. Bobby_Baggio
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      A

    3. Paulie Walnuts
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      A)

  6. mr messi
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Pelle or Costa in for Aguero guys? I see a lot of people on here are gambling with Costa.

    1. RustyBz
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Both

    2. Meinhoff
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Pelle. I am gambling with Costa because I already have Pelle

      1. Belalugozi78
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        me too. My only concern is, if I should make him my captain

        1. Meinhoff
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          It's him or Sanchez for me, on Sanchez atm

    3. saihtam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Cant u have both?

      1. mr messi
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        No, ive already done Wilson to Ighalo and want to get in KDB so can't afford both.

    4. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      I'm getting Pelle.

    5. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      I'm in the same position. Going with Costa!

  7. RustyBz
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Do we really need Vardy? Just want to go with Costa, Pelle & Ighalo (cheap 5th mid)

    1. 1zverGGademN
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Only if you enjoy watching him when Leicester attacks 🙂 Imo he is the best english forward atm.

    2. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Of course you don't need him, he's bang in form and a great option though.

    3. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      No you don't but I'm only telling you that in the hope you don't get him.

    4. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      There are many good options in attack. Including but not limited to Vardy.

  8. 1zverGGademN
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Anyone tempted by Marko Arnautovic' form atm? Even when he missfiring in PL he is a menace upfront next to Diouf and Bojan. Bojan is the best player in this club but classified as forward and playing behind the main striker is not good in fpl asspect. Thoughts?

    1. saihtam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      I am thikning about it. Seems blody cheep and can bring good points.
      how are the fix for them?
      Also dont know who to switch him for. Maybe Cabaye?

    2. A.T
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      He's not consistent enough and there are better options in midfield at the moment IMO.

  9. Marcus Aurelius
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Very tempted by Kane, he's surely on for a run of form soon. Been saying that all season though, so far.

    Kane/Lukaku/Ighalo frontline too many trolls for one team? Midfield is strong though so would only be rotating Ighalo in occasionally.

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Why is he on for a run of form?

      1. Marcus Aurelius
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        He's a good player, works hard, plus the England game will have given him a bit of a confidence boost. Basically a somewhat unfounded opinion. Wanted to test the waters to see if anyone was feeling the same way with some stats to back it up.

        1. Epic Fail
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Oh you mean he's due 😀

    2. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Agree he could be due a purple patch. Him scoring and apparently playing well yesterday tempts me to choose him over dullard choice Pelle.

      1. Epic Fail
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        He didn't score.

        1. Pompel
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          I stand corrected - he was credited on the live stream report I followed. But surely a sign of form nevertheless?

          1. Epic Fail
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 5 months ago

            I know what you mean. But he's already scored this and it hasn't changed anything.

    3. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Form over hunches.

    4. Make United Great Again
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      No such thing

    5. 1zverGGademN
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Wait for Kane to get consistency then get him 🙂 Last game for England he posses danger but also missed some good chances and these situations could cost some BPS ant etc.. No brainer if hits his form from last season but better watch him this week against Liverpool and then take notes is he really worths more than Pelle or Lukaku for the next 4-5 gameweeks 🙂

    6. saihtam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Cant see him playing as good as last season. Trying to hard and failing. He almost missed a open goal against City. Also against Estonia he didint play so good. Even our defenders managed to put him off. Didint see yesterdays game.

      Only one i see banging them soon is Costa.

      1. 1zverGGademN
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        But Costa is overweight? Chelsea are poor and even their best player is out of form. Can't get all those Costa fans on here.. At least Costa is not 90 mins player and usually gets booked?

      2. Marcus Aurelius
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Yeah I guess it's a gamble not really worth taking. I'm being obstinate about Pelle because I have Mane and Cedric, plus had Pelle for the first few weeks before taking him out just as his returns went from decent to good. Probably need to bite the bullet there, but three Saints does seem like overkill.

        1. saihtam
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          But upcoming games seems to good to turn down.

  10. Paulie Walnuts
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Big Ron's captain poll...

    A. Sanchez (WAT)
    B. Vardy (SOU)
    C. De Bryne (BOU)
    D. Pelle (LEI)

    1. Sailboats
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      C or D

    3. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      C. Tough choices though.

      1. Paulie Walnuts
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        want to get my 8th green arrow so needs some serious thought

        1. Jafalad
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          What's your take on the scorelines?

          City look like they might put 2-3 past BMT so KGB is sure to be involved.

          WAT are good at home so that rules out Sanchez.

          Pele is a good shout v porous LEI.

          1. Paulie Walnuts
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 5 months ago

            Well i am not sure if Kompany is out but then Wilson is injured anyway...
            City have Aguero, Silva and potentially Yaya out so i may go with a boring 1-0 city.

            Watford do look good at home but...it is Sanchez and he has 5 goal in 2 games for us.

            Just got Pelle in and the C is currently on him.

            .... I just dont know but i really want to keep my good run going.

            1. Jafalad
              • 14 Years
              8 years, 5 months ago

              Okay ..keep trusting your gut, Big Mac.

              Btw, have they reset the Cap'n's Poll?

    4. Eden Hazardous
      • 9 Years

      C or D

      LEI havent had CS and Pelle is on very good form. Also Mane is good shout.

  11. A.T
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Did Jonny Evans play against Greece? There's an Evans in the lineup but he's still yellow flagged on fpl. Just wondering if it's a different Evans.

    1. Konig Luther
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      different Evans

      1. A.T

        Ok thanks

    2. Black Knights
      • 12 Years

      He didn't travel as they were already through, i believe. So that doesn't help us at all!

  12. FPL Blow-In

    My early transfer this week before all the injuries. Yaya to Mane. *facepalm

    1. Wardinator
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Why is that bad?

      Is yaya passed fit now?

  13. Black Knights
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    Guys, can anyone help me with this? I'm losing sleep over it...

    Should i get in Aguero TODAY before his price drops?

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      i have already done it if that helps... Aguero > Pelle for me.

      1. Wardinator
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Italy play tonight, I'm doing it after the match when Pelle is home and dry

        1. Black Knights
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah i'm waiting to go for Pelle after the game tonight. My question was a reference to a legend that came out of nowhere yesterday and abused everyone!

          1. Sailboats
            • 8 Years

          • 8 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Yeah i was going to but i get impatient and i thought his price was going to rise... i'm not fussed it'll be fine.

          1. Black Knights
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 5 months ago

            Yeah he should be. It would be beyond wild if he got injured too.

            1. Paulie Walnuts
              • 8 Years

      you want to get Aguero IN?

    Better get drunk on friday night and let drunken me decide which one is best Aguero replacement. Have always worked well.

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      what are your choices atm

    2. Paulie Walnuts
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      i see you had the same front three as me... i went Aguero > Pelle

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        I did Martial -> Pelle before Aguero injured. Forced to take hit considering those popular options like Lukaku,Costa and Bony

        1. Paulie Walnuts
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          i would go Lukaku then... personally.

        2. Ten Season Wonder
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          I did Martial > Pelle before the Kun injury also. Now watch Martial kill me

          if you don't have Vardy get him in. if not, get Ighalo in, and use funds to upgrade midfield to Alexis or KDB

  15. Alittude

    Hazard worth keeping untill Aguero gets back? Was going to drop him this week but things changed with Aguero out. Can afford to keep him now til he comes back or could drop him next week for mane.

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Keep him for another week

      1. Alittude
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        then?

        1. Thomas Magnum
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Assess...

        2. Moin
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          Evaluate his performance...based on a spreadsheet calculate is it keeping him or getting someone else will benefit you more..keeping the same performance criteria in mind 😉

    2. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Definitely keep him. Heck, captain him.

  16. La Kitten

    Any word on Diouf and whether or not he'll be playing this weekend? Or will be on some sort of bereavement leave?

    1. Black Knights
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      He's a worry isn't he. I feel like with both the injury and the bereavement, they may just give him the time off to recover properly on both counts.

      1. La Kitten
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 5 months ago

        Yes, thinking of using my FT and taking some additional hits to move him out of the team along with getting in an Aguero replacement. Crisis/opportunity and all that...

        1. Black Knights
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 5 months ago

          I'm doing the same. Aguero to Pelle is my first, and i think Diouf to Costa will justify the hit.

    Is there a list of injured players?

  18. danishdynamite

    Ayew > Sanchez for a hit, or wait til next week?

    Next week, right?

    1. Wardinator
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Yes next week

    Sterling > KDB/Sanchez (-4)

    Or

    Mahrez > KDB/Sanchez (-4)

    Cheers lads !

    1. ZLATAN'S PONYTAIL

    Hi, total noob here!

    What do you think of my WC team?

    Hennessey/Myhill
    Bellerin/Huth/Davies/Coleman/Cedric
    Payet/Sanchez/KDB/Mane/Cabaye
    Ighalo/Vardy/Pelle

    0.1ITB

    Any help much appreciated! Cheers

    1. Ten Season Wonder

      Not too sure on Huth. I too am on WC and have just taken the geezer out. but if you think Lei will keep some clean sheets in the near future, then that's your call.

      1. jeeves1275

        Cheers, fair point, tempted by O'Shea, Fat Sam bounce, some good fixtures and I'm a SAFC fan (for my sins!)

    2. ZLATAN'S PONYTAIL

      dear Noob. I would get in a West Brom defender. Also, this team looks brilliant

  23. Doolittle

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34506013

    Is there any reason at all, other than his past achievements, to start with Rooney? People here dropping Walcott, Sterling, Barkley, Sturridge et al to accommodate a player who has looked dreadful for 18 months or so. Daniel Taylor's team is probably the best there I think, Ian Dennis's is dreadful.

    1. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Oops, missed the new post.

  24. KeepCalm
    • 10 Years

    Go with Costa or Haz? Im torn at the moment

    1. Ten Season Wonder
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      Haz all day. Both awful form, but I just feel Haz is gonna explode.

      1. KeepCalm

        cheers

  25. Marcus Aurelius

    Ignore if the RMTs irritate you, but I would appreciate any thoughts on my current WC draft:

    Howard / Elliott

    Bellerin / Janmaat / Cathcart / Davies / Francis
    (unglamorous but enabling and decent rotation potential)

    Sanchez / Mane / Payet / Mahrez / KDB
    (tempted by Walcott over Payet and dowgrade Costa)

    Ighalo / Costa / Lukaku

    1. ZLATAN'S PONYTAIL
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      would change Costa to Pelle and leave midfield as is

  26. Live Lad
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 5 months ago

    BONY?

    Do you guys think he can get at least 60 mins in the next two games?

    Yes or No? Doesn't matter whether you think he will gain more than 2 points.

    Thanks!

    1. ZLATAN'S PONYTAIL
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 5 months ago

      without a doubt yes
