After assessing the Defenders and Midfielders over the last four rounds of fixtures, we finish our trio of members articles with a look at the men up front. A host of popular picks from City, Leicester and Everton come under scrutiny, whilst we also take a look at Arsenal’s misfiring Frenchman and United’s big-money starlet in light of Wayne Rooney’s knee injury absence.
Looks like TL's hoping for a Citeh and Spud win today
Double Chelsea def
One Spud
Don't hold your breath. Peli has said he wouldn't buy a ticket to watch a second string city.
I think he'll end up in a similar position to all of us tbh
Fancy his chances with Spurs tho
so the city lost but they got a gw 30.
Is it worth doing PVA > Wollscheid for -4 now to start setting my team up for GW30?
What's the rest of def like?
Forster - Hennessey
Azpi - PVA - Daniels - Huth - Toby
Mahrez - Payet - Ozil - Alli - Firmino
Kane - Kun - VardyNot for the hit Dan, not this week imo.
as Confucius once said, 'never bring Wollscheid in for a hit'
You forgot the 😛 he used at the end of that sentence. 😉
lol, tbf i'm bringing wolly in anyway
Yes.
He can get 3 out this week easily, surely he can plan Wolly in for 30 without a hit?
I could do Wolly next week but his next 2 games look plum fixtures although being a Stoke fan I expect us to get beat by Villa 0-1 as we are usually good at being pants against teams in total disarray!
I'd wait mate you can play Huth/Toby/Azpi - you'd prob end up benching Azpi which could backfire.
Seems split down middle!. I'm not a fan of -4's but currently enjoying a 100+ point lead in my cash ML but eager to plan ahead for next few weeks.
With Wolly in then I'm assured a playing goalie and defence and can then concentrate on MID and a striker alongside Vardy should Kane & Kun blank that GWBut you still have a transfer a week till then to sort Kane/Kun if necessary, that team is well set up.
You still have OR to think about.
How many confirmed in and out for ya in GW30?
Right now 5 mate,
Butters
Simpson, Vvd
Mahrez
Vardy
So I've some work to do!I got only 2 - Mahrez and Daniels
Seems you're gonna be at the summit for quite some time 😉You need to start using those ft well!
On the other hand what you lose here you MAY gain elsewhere, it seems to me that from here all our FT are geared to 30/34/35/37 so the 'scout template' will narrow and narrow, it's pure management from here really, tho we here being so 'clever' may miss out on other picks that may outscore our picks just because say they didn't have a game in 30 if you catch my drift Zombie.Yup, that's the plan
Just had a look at your team, mids/Strikers = standard, I think you may need Vardy in there.
It looks to me your defence needs work too, again a Leicester def (Soton/Stoke) but you already know all this!
🙂Yeah, got 2 FTs this GW. Most likely will be using both of them this week. Will bring in Vardy for sure. and will see which defender from Southampton/Lei
Already did Luka > Vardy here and with only 2 defs available I need to make a move there too with 30 I mind,
GL-talk soon mate.
Morning folks
Pick one to play next GW
A - Gosling
B - Daniels
C - VVD
Forster / Henn
Wolly / Huth / Aldy / VVD / Daniels
Ozil / Payet / Alexis / Mahrez / Gosling
Vardy / Kane / Kun*New post fail
C
Thank HVT
nope , not now, just load up gw 30 first
the most important start of the season finally arriwed
can't wait for all those blanks , dgws and chips
the more chaos = the better chanse of seperating mens from the boys
even if my rank is quite terrible (400k) i didnt lost hope for good finissh
some good planing and smart use of chips should boost our ranks
courious to see how ,,casuals'' will do
That grammar, my eyes are hurting
not everoyne are born english 🙁
appologize for my bad grammar but you dont need to be roude since i think everyone understand my pointAnd a good point it is!
I wasn't born English. Sorry, didn't mean to be rude 🙁
Being just outside 100k I do feel a certain comfort in the fact that I can still significantly better my last season finish.
No grammar police on a Sunday morning please. The message is clear enough.
Hope you have that defence sorted first tho Dg.
i'll slowly working out on my def untill gw 30
fuchs , fonte and stoke def my main targetsGood man this will help, but remember most casuals will not be that affected by 30, most teams will be stretched and by default they have dgw in situ but yea good planning will help a lot.
I brought in Huth instead of Fuchs and feeling I made the wrong choice of LEI defender?
tbh i think morgan could be slightly better option than huth due price and huth is on 7 yellows
i rulled huth out and it's beetwen fuchs or morgan for me...still didnt decide who to getYeah think I made a huge mistake in Huth and didn't think of his YC
Thats the spirit. I'm struggling too at > 300k. Whats a realistic target for us if we play it cute? I'm hoping top 10k.
30k at worst , but still dreaming of top 10k finissh
> 10k will be failure for an obsessive like myself, but likely.
The top 10k might be more astute than you think FF, but I did see stats to say that they had played a lot of chips in there, but there's also plenty like me that have all the chips in hand, nothing wrong in aiming high tho.
yup, nows your chance to go get the 40 k, just like me for the top 5 k.
Who is the best Bournemouth nailed on mid?
Arter. But he won't get you any points.
Wow, great minds!
o/5
Arter in real. Ritchie for potential. FPL is up in the air due to rotation. But if you definitely want one then Gosling or Stan.
It might be worth taking a hit or 2 to get players for gw30 who also have a dgw34. Might save the wildcard until after gw34.
Yes, but hopefully we will be able to do both without taking hits.
This^^^
We still get a ft each week, so plan well.
Yeah, I really hope spurs win though. It would also be helpful to have some clear cut dgw and blank info.
Spurs can't have a game in GW30, and a DGW in GW34, unless one of their PL games is postponed for a non FA Cup related reason.
Who has DGW 34?
In terms of playing gw30 and having dgw34; Newcastle should do and maybe City if Che beat them in the cup. Speculation of course.
Like to be numerous clubs, but fixtures are yet to be announced.
na, do it from gw30 onwards for the restructuring once you have a red.
Siggy and Ayew look great after GW28, plus they have a game in GW30
Also noticed this. Might also keep an eye on paloschi and williams
Williams a great shout actually. Was focusing more on Siggy alone.
yup, thats 1 way to go..
Spurs win today please.
Chelsea win today please.
Man united result tomorrow is meaninglessThis. Although a ManU loss would be rather nice
Is it not best to wildcard soon instead of waiting for dgw? By the looks of things most people who have already used their wcs will have a monster dgw without having to make many changes.3 or 4 fts can probably get them 15 dgw players anyway by the time 34 and 37 come around.
Thoughts?
They might, but then they may be short in GW30. We wait to find out how all the cup games pan out first.
Will be so annoying holding on to my wc just for the casuals who still have their bench boost to be able to put our 15dgw players without much planning.
Was banking on this saving my season.too many big teams left in ruining things lolit's also extremely unlikely that you would be able to field a full 11 in GW35 (without taking hits), if you've got 15 DGW's in GW34.
So would it be best to plan transfers to get 15 dgw players in 35 and use bench boost then wc in gw36
Today will tell a lot
Morning All

Wolly / Huth / Aldy / VVD / Daniels
Ozil / Payet / Alexis / Mahrez / Gosling
Vardy / Kane / Kun*
Best mid from stoke to bring in for next 2-3 weeks?
Shaqiri, Aurnatovic or Walters?S or A
None are really nailed right now through rotation or injury.
Currently I'd suggest Arnie should he be fit for Villa.Any update on Shawx Dan?
Wlt bring him in but he seems risky injury wise.Tough one to call right now.
He's back in training at the Dubai training camp but 50/50 as to whether he will feature.
Wish I could give you a definitive answer but if keep an eye on it this week. Rumours suggest that he could be back in for Villa though due to us having the week offHopefully as the cs correlation with him is excellent as we all know, looks like ill be going with double Stoke defence too!
Wolly and Pieters the only 100% nailed on right now.
A/W
As a Brentford fan who already has booked hotel, train, match ticket and time off work. I really hope Hull v Arsenal isn't arranged for 8th March!!
You're a Brentford and a man utd fan?
Yep pretty much a football addict. Family all United fans but grew up near Brentford and follow home/away.
If they played together, who would you support?
Bees these days for sure. Growing up would have been United. I see about 100 games a year so it can be tricky getting affiliation with multiple clubs. Part of me was cheering on Midjtylland on Thursday as part Bees owned and saw them vs Soton. Plus hate LVG style of play.
I don't get why you fired that decent manager. Well I know why, just looked a bit stupid, I think he would've got you promoted eventually. Even that season if it hadn't been announced
Was a complex situation and the media certainly took Warburtons side. He wasn't fired and was out of contract. He would of stayed but wanted more control over player recruitment. Our owner wanted to buy several players in Jan and push for promotion. Warburton disagreed and didn't want to upset the squad. We look weaker this season but given we made a reported £22 million in player sales since our League 1 days its hard to not support the system we have in place.
few question
-who to get first ?
LEI,STO or SOT defender
-are morgan , wolly and fonte good combo from those def or it worth pay more for likes of huth/fuchs , VVD?
-vardy or kane for capitan?
thanksI'd rather huth, wolly and vvd
Vardyget the huth but don't neglect the mid or attack too.
We all seem so obsessed with preparing our teams for the blank and dgw but I feel like if fpl has taught me one thing it's that planning ain't worth sh1t in this game.
not sure if i agree with this
few seasons back i used to write my plan on papper and stick to it and i had my best finissh ever
every time when i overthink and dont stick to the plan i mess up my team cause of getting some ,,differential'' when obvious player is right infront of your eyes
planing for dgws and blank is key , but ofc there is luck factor and who can predict when your player will get injureed 🙁
^this. If Pwkrona has only learnt not to plan anything, he's probably quite bad at this.
Planning well and sticking to the plan is generally the key.
In my opinion good planning is very important, but so is having the flexibility to adjust the plan according to circumstances.
This flexibility should not however extend to messing up the squad for the sake of getting in too many differentials or jumping on too many over-hyped bandwagons.

Commentator sounds like he's having an orgasm.
281
Playing (8): Butland, VVD, Daniels, Mahrez, Gosling, Alli, Kane, Aguero
Maybe (3): Bellerin, Ozil, Alexis
Out (3): McCarthy, Moreno, Lukaku,Moreno and Lukaku to Targett and Vardy?
or huth and vardy is fine too.
8 years, 2 months agoFrom Foxes point of view I want Spurs and Arsenal to have as many fixtures as possible, but from a personal FF point of view I want Hull and Palace to prevail in the cup. Come o you Foxes!
