Our first members’ article of the week takes a look back at the four fixtures that comprised a somewhat reduced Gameweek 28.
Bournemouth’s hat-trick hero is placed under the microscope as his transfer bandwagon picks up pace. We also cast an eye over Liverpool’s latest source of midfield returns and check up on a Swansea defender whose eye for goal continues to reap the rewards.
So keep Carroll...
Agree with Leicester shout- post midweek CL win letdown coming
Leicester are poor away from the Crisp Packet.
INJURY UPDATE: We can confirm that @HKane sustained ligament damage to his right ankle during Sunday's FA Cup win against Millwall.
Dial-up, possibly pigeon carrier?
Horseback or foot messenger I'd say :/
Huh?
I'm sure I read that tweet yesterday.
I reckon Leicester might just win tonight against sevilla
I can see a Nasri red card this evening
Yea him and Vardy have history...
Wouldn't be surprised if Schmeichel saved another pen
No way-Now that's ludicrous!
If I was a gambler, I'd bet on it...
Cheers Philippides.
Red flag yesterday Gambler... already did Kane to Costa yesterday for a rise. But I would bet he gets a second rise ...
Costa will ride to 10.6 tonight
He already did last night
Already there
If you were wc this week, what player would you most like to bring in, i.e. Who do you see as the highest scoring player in FPL this week???
* wc int break
Aguero
I have Kun but not sure I would bring him in for a WC; hope he is highest FPL though - are you captaining Kun PS?
Son, Barkley
Carroll to costa worth -4 this gw? Got hazard
No
no
Seems crazy.
Thinking of going Aguero + Phillips to Costa + Hazard?
Can you do Costa and Sanchez or Gabbi and Hazard for diversity
Cant stretch as far as Sanchez and I dont like Gabbi v Spurs(a)
How about Costa and Alli ??
I already have Alli, Lukaku and Mane
Foster(Grant)
Coleman Alonso Jones (Amat McAuley)
Mane Alli Antonio (Phillips Capoue)
Llorente Lukaku Aguero
Think City will be blown after tonight and Phillips has a tough schedule ahead.
Phillips to Hazard this week
Kun to Gabbi next week ??
Dont have the funds to leap direct from Phillips to Hazard, hence downgrading Aguero in order to make that work.
Bottomed.
Whom do you consider to be the best defender with a DGW for £4.7m or less?
Yoshida
Mawson
He has a DGW?
No, I didnt read properly, as usual.
Stones.
He said 'Double' gw Karan!
Yes...
Man C have Man U and WBA to rearrange.
Fabio Kone Yoshida - 4.4 or lower
somehow have had Mirallas in my team past 3 GWs.
Keep or twist for pne of Alli / Sanchez / Hazard?
Twist for any of those three
Twist.. tho this week looks tempting to hold.
think i'll take those 18 points in 3 weeks and run tbh. Rotation risk but still very fun to own.
I'm in the same situation. Wouldn't bother using FT to get in Alli when they're playing SOU and Kane is injured. I have Sanchez and Chelsea cover, but if I did't have either I'd go for Sanchez. Incoming haul against WBA
Hope so but West Brom will park the bus and might keep it low at home and Sanchez off on the left is less of productive; Wally may outscore him
Vardy is a bit of a pr*t isn't he? Acts all hard and dives to the floor when Nasri didn't even touch him
You've only just noticed this?
last tonight just re-affirmed it.
Like most English players these days innit
Cracking article btw Paul!
always is
Agree, look forward to these every week!
yep, that introduction is most definitely a pulsating read!
Is the Sanchez hype all a bit premature? He obviously doesn't give a pineapple about Arsenal anymore, and is back to playing LW?
Have you seen him play football though? My word.
ive also seen Hazard play football 😉
Sanchez on another level in my opinion
Might be the wrong way of looking at it, but I'd rather have him and score 2 than not have him when he scores 10+...
I get ya, but is he worth a hit for Coutinho. Hard to say imo
I probably wouldn't be taking a hit on him this week.
A bit harsh - I'm not getting him in this GW though
I will be another fool taken in by the hype.
A heads up to all Olsson(Swa) owners.
He has been left out of Swedens international squad as his foot injury wont heal in time. This of course suggests there is no way he is gonna play this weekend.
yep, my main ML rival went Olsson over Mawson last week. Lovely jubbly
1FT
0.5 ITB
Heaton, Valdes
Mee, Brunt, Cahill, Baines, Yoshida
Siggy, Sane, Mane, Pedro, Obiang
Luk, Kun, Llorente
What should I do?
Baines out? Llorente out? Sane/Kun out?
Sane to King?
See how tonight goes and Llorente news.
Rather lose Brunt over Baines atm.
This
Cheers
Why Kun/Sane out... trying to predict Pep's rotation??
Any news on Firmino?
Klopp seems hopefull
Jaku Grant
Walker Alonso Coleman Evans Amat

1.3itb 0FT
A. Kane to Costa for -4
or
B. Kane + Lanzini to Gabbiadini + Sanchez for -8
or
C. any other move if y'all can suggest
In what order would you play these?
Brunt(ARS) Mawson(bou) Holebas(palace)
mawson, holebas, brunt
3,1,2?
That order
Haha, 3 answers make it 6 points each.
321
Mawson
Holebas
No way I'd play Brunt
1. Holebas
2. Mawson
3. Brunt
Cheers all.
231... Mawson has scored multiple times recently...when is the last time Holey scored?
Too long ago. Doubt any keep a CS.
all 3 will concede so it desnt matter realy
Brunt if he plays in mid again and probably will
Man City - Pool predictions? 2-2
2-1
2-1
1-2
3-2... very mediocre defenses and wide open offensive styles... the over under must be 5 goals
"Yet to find the net since arriving from Rennes, the Polish international has produced 13 attempts on goal since being handed his debut in Gameweek 24"
I'm fairly sure Grosicki has scored?
2 assists.
Hey! Members only
Throw the paupers a crumb
Shots on target can be found on other places for free aw:)
Goals scored can be found too 😉

Jaku Heaton
Alonso Williams Brunt Pieters Amat
Mane Cout Siggy Lanzini De Roon
Kane Lukaku Kun
Kane and Brunt → Costa and Vertonghen for -8 or Wildcard this mess?
Just do the Kane transfer, no need to -8 there and definitely no need to WC.
Everyone who is left with the wildcard when are you thinking of using it?
Does it make sense to hold it till when the DGW fixtures are announced?
My team doesn't desperately need it but I could need it in the next couple of gameweeks and I want to make full use of it. GW36 looks to late I probably want to use it by GW 32-33 and not later than that.
Appreciate your thoughts!
Around 31/32, when we know the fixtures
If you have bench boost, it will be harder to get full value from that chip if using earlier. If your team needs a WC then that's another story.
Depends on which CL night is a DGW
Kane falling tonight...
Who are you getting for him AND Why?
(A) Costa (rose last night)
(B) Defoe
(C) Deeney
(D) Gabbi - get a week early??
I'd get A if I were you
Cheers Ha
Got him... just seeing what people are doing after he already rose
Don't think a player rising is any reason not to get them. Won't exactly be short of funds either.
Agree... just one factor
Foster Jak
Alonso Walker Coleman McAuley Amat
Mane Coutinho Eriksen Sigurdsson King
Lukaku Llorente Diomande
8.4m itb! 1ft.
I think I will just use 1ft this time, but how?
A) Diomande->Costa
B) Llorente->Costa
C) Coutinho->Sanchez
A
Spurs - Soton score predicitions?
4-2
1-1
3-0
1-1
I think there will be an adjustment game with Kane out.
Spurs to struggle 1-0 or 1-1
1-1
Interesting. Thanks all.
Will likely have a front line of Costa - Lukaku - Llorente this GW. (After I take out Kane sadly)
Who would you guys take out for Gabbiadini in that scenario next week? Between Lukaku and Costa, for GW30 onwards.
Llorente
Lorente surely but you probably dont have funds to do that
Why not keep them both, and get Gabbs for Llorente?
Kaku maybe if funds are low... Kaku doesn't have a DGW in 34
In an ideal world it will definitely be Llorente...just a bit unsure how easy that will be to do avoiding a lot of hits, as Sanchez is firmly on my radar.
Coutinho > ?
A) Sanchez (paired with Gabbiadini)
B) Hazard (paired with Gabbiadini)
C) Alli (paired with Costa)
C
Athletico result prediction tonight?
2-1
3-1
Yes please
I have none of their players in my FPL team, so 1-1 with random scorers/assisters.
Should be a walk in the park for Atlético in all honesty. Korkut's only just arrived at the BayArena and faces a defensive crisis for this match - Tah, Toprak & Lars Bender are all apparently out, while Benji Henrichs is suspended.
Interesting reading. Barnes seems like the perfect 4.5 player, which means we should go 352...
but if hes sat on the bench every week, he aint helping
8th attacker, so his job is to come on when needed.
Also a good option to play if you get an injury/suspension
I almost did this yesterday and then I went boring and got Costa... Costa has the second DGW that Barnes Doesn't have and I was only getting Barnes to get Sanchez which would have been for a hit. I am insecure about Sanchez on the left this week away.
Can we look at it this way? Hazard and Barnes over Costa and T.Carroll. Can have Alexis either way.
Hazard over Costa anyday for me

Depends on your ML's
I'm steering clear
Any tips for me? 🙂
1FT and 2.3 itb...

Mane Siggy Sane King Phillips*
Lukaku Kun Rondon
Rondon to Gabbi?
This makes most sense
Definitely on the cards, but not in a hurry as they play Spurs away
I have a similar-ish team and thinking -4 to get out Mane/Sane and Brunt for Sanchez and Valencia
Good idea, Valencia over Walker though?
Man City Monaco to be a thriller again tonight?
Down with this sort of thing!
7 years, 2 months agoCarroll to costa worth -4? Just thinking west ham could do well given LEI's midweek exertions..
