The Technical Area – Alonso vs Azpilicueta

Fresh from a comfortable 4-0 demolition of West Brom – their fourth successive Premier League victory – interest in Chelsea’s Fantasy assets is beginning to accelerate.

After a challenging opening schedule that pitted them against Spurs, Manchester City and Arsenal over the first seven Gameweeks, the Blues now enter the kindest window of their season’s fixture schedule.

    Actually feeling confident of Kane captain this week feel he is going to explode

    1. ZeBestee
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      captaining him as well. No one is better than him this gw

    2. slamdunk
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Likewise,i feel this is the week to captain him if not get rid

    3. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Him or Sané for me

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        If you have Kane this week you captain him. Otherwise get rid.

        1. _figu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          I disagree.

    4. My Name Is Prince
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      I'm capping Sane so Kane could definitely explode, it's even likely!!

      1. _figu
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Heh. I've got only one of his hauls. Think I've captained him 6 times. But WBA looks dreadful. It's a good match to captain him.

  2. ZeBestee
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    does it look like Lukaku might be rested this weekend to be fresh during the midweek games??

    1. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Doubtful, but possible with Ibra back imo

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Doubt it. But if we're winning comfortably I could see Jose playing Zlatan 30+ mins.

    3. Lazaretti
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      After seeing first half of yesterdays United game I wouldn't surprise if Lukaku gets benched sooner or later. I think they could even play Rashford or Martial upfront though Lukaku prob will still start...

    4. slamdunk
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Also when Zlatan is on at the same time as lukaku,lukaku gets pushed out to the right

  3. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Any transfers worth doing here?

    A) Nope, save FT
    B) Francis -> 4.4m
    C) Sterling -> Pogba
    D) Something else

    Speroni
    Daniels, Lowton, Moreno
    Salah, Sterling, Zaha, Richarlison
    Kane, Lukaku, Morata

    Elliot, RLC, Dunk, Francis
    Bank 0.0m, 1FT, no WC

    1. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      C

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      I would actually save. Good looking team. Unless you're planning on dropping Kaku in couple of gameweeks. Then I'd do C

  4. FPL Panda
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Bottomed a few pages back

    Planned moved for next week for free folks

    A) Dann and richarlison to choupo and Alonso 0.0itb

    B) jones and richarlison to gross and Alonso 0.0 itb

    The Friday night deadline will allow me to it based on morata not risk g tonight

    I know ppl will tell me don’t ditch richarlison but I only have 0.1 tied up in him and don’t see him scoring vs united , spurs and Burley away

    recently wildcarded so have a strong squad and got jones for 5.0 so leaning towards B.

    What are ppls thoughts? Cheers

      I'm binning rich for hazard next week

      1. Do I Not Like Orange
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Me too

  5. Judders
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Top of my ML but lead is dwindling. Used my free and transferred DCL out for Niasse on Saturday night. God damn Fantasy makes me angry. If DCL scores I will cry

  6. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Start Speroni over Courtois? 😛

    1. The Suspended One
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      No

  7. The Suspended One
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    This week would you rather start Kun or Callum Wilson?

    1. A.T
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson

      1. Gudjohnsen
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Kun. You don't bench a 12 million striker.

        1. A.T
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Pep does

        2. The Suspended One
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          You do when he's a sub

          1. Do I Not Like Orange
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            If you have Aguero, you play him. Imagine how you'll feel at 3:00 on Sunday if he starts and you have a Wilson 2-pointer staring back at you.

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

    Next weeks moves

    A) Dann and richarlison to choupo and Alonso 0.0itb

    B) jones and richarlison to gross and Alonso 0.0 itb

    The Friday night deadline will allow me to it based on morata not risk g tonight

    Will Calvert Lewin will start this weekend with Naisse out?

    1. A.T
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      It might be Sandro

    2. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Would imagine so

  10. FCSB
    • 8 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Speroni
    Daniels Jones Moreno
    Salah Sterling Fernandinho Richarlison
    Kane Lukaku Aguero

    Pope Mee Carroll Hunemeier

    1 FT, 0 ITB

    What to do here?

    Or am I GTG for this week, and save FT (as I plan to bring in Morata or Hazard next week)?

    Thanks

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

    Thinking to save my FT this week, what you guys thinks?

    Pope
    Maguire Daniels Otamendi Cedric
    Sane Salah Richarlison
    Vardy Kane Jesus

    Elliot Jones Atsu Carroll

    1. supersham
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      If you are holding on Jones id ship Cedric

  12. Lilac Breasted Roller
    • 6 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    rp

    Elliot
    Otamendi / Moreno / Mee
    Davis / Sterling / D Silva / Salah / Eriksen
    Kane / Morata

    Pope, Jones, Mbemba, Quaner
    0 ITB, 1 FT

    A) Jones -> Daniels [for the next 4 GW, then transfer back[
    B) Jones -> Mustafi [possibly for longer term)

    1. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      A

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

    Is A worth -4 or wait a week and stick with B for this Gameweek

    A Morata Sane (-4)
    B Lukaku Sterling

    1. Magic Box
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Stick, you'll want Morata from 14 onwards.

    2. _figu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Stick. Kaku could easily haul vs Brighton.

  14. Magic Box
    • 9 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Any transfers here or save?

    Elliot / Krul
    Alonso / Jones* / Gomez / Mee / 4.0
    Eriksen / Salah / Silva / Zaha / Carroll
    Kane / Morata / Abraham*

    1FT 0.4ITB

    Currently have Jones + Abraham flagged so was thinking Otamendi + DLC (-4) instead? Thanks.

    1. QuintonFortune25
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Yeah should pay off this week

    2. supersham
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Im sorry but who is DLC!!?

      1. Magic Box
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Apologies. Meant DCL.

        Calvert Lewin.

          • 12 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

  15. QuintonFortune25
    • 7 Years

    2. Reckoner.
      • 12 Years

    2 FTs and 0.2 in the bank
    Elliott (Foster)
    Alonso Bavies Mee (Jones Dunk)
    Salah Richarlison Sterling Gross (Carroll)
    Kane Morata Firmino
    A) Jones to Daniel and bench Mee
    B) Carroll to RLC and bench Gross

    The plan is to get rid of Bavies next week and get a full playing 15 for the hectic schedule.

  19. LegendFrankie

    I've got infected by the Niasse virus, so I have to take a -4 this gameweek.

    a) Mane > Pogba
    b) Decoure > Richarlison
    c) Mane > Hazard
    d) Suggestions, please!

    Gomes
    Azpi - Kiko - Ward
    Sane (c) - Decoure - Mane - Salah - Gross
    Kane (vc) - Jesus

    Elliot - Niasse - Jones - Games

    Good luck, people!

  20. Sickboy

    Help please.

    Will Pogba’s % increase be reset when he’s no longer locked, or could he rise very quickly?

    Thanks.

    1. A.T
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Pretty sure it gets reset.

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years

      Reset, like Pedro did last year.

    I wanna do Carroll > Sane but first need to downgrade Aguero to

    A) Wilson
    B) Murray
    C) Diouf (stoke cover)

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      A. Just concerned about the hectic schedule after a long lay off, but looks like you are strengthening a fifth mid mightily there, so you'd probably be ok

      1. Bulldogs FC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        I'm looking for a 3rd striker in a 352 formation so anyone might do just fine, but I need a strong bench for any heavy rotations. The real question though is if these moves worth a hit or wait and do 2FT next GW..that would mean I'm risking Kun to be benched and missing out on Sane vs HUD!

    5. 404_FC
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      A for 4 week

      B for long term

  22. Reckoner.
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    A) Jones, Choupo-Moting, Richarlison, Crouch
    or
    B) 4.8m, Loftus-Cheek, Pogba, Niasse (when back)

    My current team is A so if B would be working towards that. "A" would result in playing 3-5-2 most weeks, 4-4-2 others whereas "B" I could play any of 3-5-2 / 4-4-2 / 3-4-3 fixtures depending.

    Rest of team:

    Pope | Elliot
    Alonso | Daniels | Kiko | Naughton | ?????
    Salah | Sane | Sterling | ?????? | ?????
    Kane | Morata | ?????

    1. 404_FC

      but i dont like crouch

  23. HVT

    Pick 1 to start?

    A - Lowton (Arse)
    B - Moreno (Che)
    C - Groß (manu)
    D - DCL (soton)

    Thanks

    1. 404_FC

        Soton @ home-somewhat decent Prince?

        1. My Name Is Prince
          • 11 Years

          Very decent, you know my name!

    5. HVT
      • 13 Years

      God! - this is confusing, I’d better not ask about bench order at this point! That is unless someone cares to try!

      1. Bald Eagle
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

        Bench order D, A, B

        1. HVT

    1. HVT
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Don’t like -8 tbh, but the q is v vague GK, needs more ‘context’

      1. Gooner Kebab
        • 11 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Otamendi + Sane

        1. HVT
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Now that’s decent, if it were a -4, I’d be all over it-your call?

  25. 404_FC

    if u have kolasinac who would u play this week?

    a) Brady (ARS)
    b) T.Carroll (BOU)
    c) Gomez (CHE)

    and who will start this week gomez or TAA ?

    1. HVT

        thanks HVT

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      TC might not play

      1. 404_FC
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        he lost his place ?

        1. Gooner Kebab
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Not sure but he didnt play last game.

        2. HVT
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Seems so, never much ado anyways 2,2,2,1,2,1,2.....

  26. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    6 years, 5 months ago

    Hmmm, I wonder if there are enough Man Utd fans to drag Smalling up a further 0.1?

    Would allow me to swap triple United (Jones, Smalling, Lukaku) to triple Chelsea (Azpi, Alonso, Morata) for just a -4. Exact cash...

    1. HVT
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Possible, no hazard?

      1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Haz is a glorious option but I am pretty settled with my mids. I feel like Alonso/Azpi can rack up some serious points over that spell.

        Haz is a proven commodity and I am not doubting what he brings, but I think I am right in saying wba is the only game he's really turned it on in so far? I would need to re-model a bit too much, but I get that I will be burnt at times. Can't have 'em all eh?

        1. HVT
          • 13 Years
          6 years, 5 months ago

          Yea agree but I’m looking at a Alli > Haz (c) move next week, finding it hard to split Azpi/Alonso, I did think about the double up which I think could be great too.

          1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            6 years, 5 months ago

            All arguable moves aren't they? Weighing each up is so much about the opportunity cost of not having others. I got a lot of mids at the right price and I'm pretty satisfied there. That's a big factor, and lining up with basically two big hitters in my backline would be immense!

            1. HVT
              • 13 Years
              6 years, 5 months ago

              Well I have Otam/Alonso(soon) 4.5/4.5/4.5, so happy to get Eden as he looks a massive diff right now.
              I’ll also have Morata, I have DCL which seems to be enabling all this, been playing a 3-5-2 since wc a got a few greens, only thing now is I may have to sacrifice Gross or Rica for Hazard.

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

      Selling Smalling for a hit before Brighton at home is the worst plan since Olaf the hairy ordered 10,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside.

      1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Not this week chap. On no planet would I trade Man U vs BHA for Che at liv.

        If he goes up it will prob be the refresh after the HE window has shut.

      Slim chance. Azpi and Morata look likely to go up before Smalling. Maybe even Alonso.

        I figure with Alonso the trasffic will be split between him and Azpi at least, but sure we will see how it pans out. Hopefully the casual Utd global fans come through for me!

      That would be gold if it works out. I'm assuming you'll make the moves after the Friday deadline

        Correctamundo 🙂

        Would actually use my FT on Jones to Azpi this week as Azpi may rise (can absorb a Jones drop as acquired at 5.0), then other two after deadline for a -4 contingent on the Smalling rise.

          Yes do this, Chelsea could easily keep a cs this week.

            'Easily'?!! , how come?

              Mmm like it’s a possibility they draw 0-0 or Chelsea win there without conceding.

    Will Azpilicueta rise tonight?

    I have the exact money itb to do Davies to Azpi and Eriksen to Hazard after deadline tomorow.

    is Kun > Vardy worth it for 1 week?

    or Kun >Jesus?

    Can i A, survive another week with Aguero?

    Or B, do i just bite the bullet and go Kun to Lukaku the Lukaku to Morata for the midweek GW?

      Well plan B seems pretty silly. Either keep Aguero or get Morata now

      1. Kevin Twine

        This

      2. Reacher
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 5 months ago

        Explain why silly, no hit involved and Lukaku has a good h fixture next, then Morata has a good home fixture midweek?

    2. XABI 15
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 5 months ago

      Get rid. Over next 3 games he will get 1 game and 65 mins max and then hes a massive rotation risk over christmas

      Too much to pay for 11.5+

    3. XabiAlonso
      • 8 Years

      Just straight to morata is the better chess like move

        All of my main mini league rivals have Lukaku that is my thinking behind plan B, yes i understand people see B as a waste of a transfer but it covers my main rivals for this GW
