Scout Notes – Otamendi in Demand

Fantasy managers flock to Man City’s goal scoring centre-half in light of yesterday’s derby winner but the fortunes of two big-hitting forwards take a turn for the worse.

Nicolas Otamendi is now up to joint-second in the Fantasy Premier League defender standings after delivering a fourth double-digit haul of the season.

The Argentine’s winner at Old Trafford took his tally to four goals for the campaign – more than any other defender – with a potential for points at both ends of the pitch proving pivotal at a time when Man City are struggling to keep out opponents.

Since John Stones limped off against Leicester in Gameweek 12, the league leaders have failed to register a clean sheet in four fixtures. And with Vincent Kompany hauled off at half-time due to injury, Pep Guardiola may be forced to field Eliaquim Mangala at centre-half until Stones is available.

Yet those problems merely cement Otamendi’s pitch-time at a point where rest and rotation is starting to hit hard right across the top-flight.

While we can expect his manager to chop and change in the final third, Guardiola simply has no alternatives to replace the Argentine right now.

And with Swansea, Bournemouth, Newcastle, Palace and Watford in five of their next six between now and Gameweek 22 on January 2, Otamendi is the number one transfer target since Saturday’s deadline, with over 71,000 FPL managers rushing to acquire his services.

Silva on the ascent

David Silva’s opener at Old Trafford – his second goal in as many matches – continued the Spaniard’s climb up the FPL standings.

Despite netting in last week’s win over West Ham, the recent trend of Silva sales continued – over 128,000 managers parted company ahead of the Manchester derby, with his price having tumbled from 8.6 in Gameweek 10 down to 8.1.

Yet a third goal of the season, allied with two bonus points, served a reminder of Silva’s potential as he climbed ahead of team-mate Leroy Sane in the City midfield pecking order, by 86 points to 85.

Having started all but one of the opening 16 Gameweeks, Silva now has three goals and eight assists – just one shy of his respective tallies in 2016/17.

Both Sane and Raheem Sterling started on either side of Gabriel Jesus in the visitors’ front three but the German’s poor recent form shows no sign of abating – another blank means he now has just a single assist in the last six Gameweeks.

Up top, Sergio Aguero’s appeal was dented further as he dropped down to the bench for the first time in four Gameweeks.

Indeed, the Argentine’s 15.8% owners were left to rely on their bench autosubs when he suffered the ignominy of failing to play a single minute of the derby win as Guardiola rolled out a striker-less formation after replacing Jesus before the hour-mark.

While this at least bodes well for his chances of starting away to Swansea in midweek, many Aguero owners have had enough – over 36,000 have parted company in the last 24 hours alone.

Lukaku toils continue

Romelu Lukaku has now scored just one goal in nine Gameweeks after yet another failure in yesterday’s 2-1 home loss.

Handed a role as a lone striker as Jose Mourinho switched from 3-4-1-2 to 4-2-3-1, Lukaku once again played from start to finish but managed just two attempts, with one on target.

It was left to Marcus Rashford – with his first strike since Gameweek 9 – to find the net, capitalising on errors from Otamendi and then Fabian Delph to score United’s solitary effort.

Sold by over 222,000 FPL managers last week, Lukaku was second only to suspended team-mate Paul Pogba for sales.

And despite a very obliging festive schedule (BOU wba lei BUR SOU eve) between now and New Year’s Day, that exodus is showing no sign of slowing – only Aaron Ramsey has suffered more transfers out over the last 24 hours.

Lukaku remains the only forward in the Premier League to have played every minute of the season so far but with Zlatan Ibrahimovic earning further pitch-time off the bench yesterday, that record seems unlikely to remain for much longer.

At the back, Victor Lindelof dropped to the bench due to the move to a four-man rearguard, with the fit-again Phil Jones also named among the subs.

Yet it was the former who replaced Marcos Rojo at the break after the Argentine sustained a first-half facial injury, with Mourinho perhaps reluctant to throw Jones into the fray after his recent injury absence.

That arguably leaves Chris Smalling as United’s most assured starter at centre-half over the congested upcoming period – the 5.4-priced former Fulham man has now been named on the teamsheet in ten successive Gameweeks.

    My Otamendi v Alonso decision went well two week ago 🙁

      If it makes you feel any better, about 95% of decisions I've made since gameweek 7 have gone wrong.

      I’m leaning towards Loftus-Cheek at the moment. Does it make any difference if I throw Richarlison into the mix?

        Well that makes no sense. Didn’t realise I’d already included Richarlison. I need a coffee.

  7. 8ball

    6 years, 3 months ago

    Silva or Sterling?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Silverling

    2. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Had both but sold Silva for Coutinho! Think he want him back now the two sit well together. Only way I can do it is sell Morata and go 3-5-2.

      1. 8ball
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Yea had both too. Sold Silva for Hazard.

        Should I stick with Sterling or get in Silva?

        1. shirtless
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          I’d stick. I do like the idea of both alongside Salah and Coutinho though.

    3. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Sterling.

  8. fedolefan

    6 years, 3 months ago

    How do these moves look with 2FT.

    Morata + Daniels ➡ Firmino + Moses

    1. suddenorgan
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Moses is a big rotation risk

      1. fedolefan
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Is he really? He's very clearly first choice. His rotation risk is not the same a Trippier/Aurier if that's what you're thinking.

    2. Fpldonny
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Hmm, I think Morata outscores Firm over the next 6-8 weeks, and Chelsea are frustratingly conceeding a silly goal every game. Daniels to a Watford/Burnely def?

      1. fedolefan
        • 9 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Morata may outscore Firm, but there's a 2.3m price difference there. Not keen on Burnley defenders over the next five. Watford i could get but you're just gambling with their clean sheet potential. And Chelsea is conceding a goal every game, but from what, 1-2 shots? Surely, they keep them out sometimes.

        1. Fpldonny
          • 7 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Thats true, and if you can use those funds elsewhere to make up the difference then go for it. Youre right on Chelsea conceeding but thats the problem with expensive defs, one silly moment and the CS is gone!(salty Alonso owner)

  9. FPL Blow-In
    • 11 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Sorry put on old article.

    Is Robertson an option with Moreno out?

  10. Karan14
    • 7 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    Better option from GW19 onwards?

    A) Morata & RLC

    B) Pogba/Sterling & Austin + 1m

    Have Hazard. Don’t think I’ll be giving the armband to Morata if I want cap a Cheslea player.

    Appreciate your thoughts!

    Gameweek 16 Rough with the Smooth

    Let's hear your tales of woe and joy here.

    Any lucky Begovic owners? Miffed Milivojevic owners? Or those that got caught out by Klopp's team sheet?

    1. GreenArrows
      • 7 Years

      Rough
      Third week in a row captain fail....Hazard, Jones not playing and benched DCL

      Smooth
      Points from Kane, Silva, Salah, Pope

    2. La Roja

      Milivojevic*

      1. Lanley Staurel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        That's part of my rough ie Zaha assist missed due to Benteke the noob.
        Other roughs were over-thinking defenders and benching Otamendi - wtf I hear you ask?! Indeed.

        Smooth though is good. Captained Kane, Flappyhanski clean sheet, Silva, Salah and 100k rank improvement to top 200k.

    3. shirtless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth 64 point week and up to 32k..

      Smooth; Kane(c) when loads in my ML had sold. Salah, Otamendi, Davies.

      Rough; Sold Silva for Coutinho cost me 7 points off the back of switching Firmino to Morata last week that cost me 5! Think I want Silva back now..Still have my wildcard though.

    4. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      Smooth : Kane C Fabianski Salah

      Rough : Sold Otamendi & CM for Zeegelaar and Ramsey

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

      Considered captaining Kane literally the minute before deadline, but didn't – went for Hazard, dropping 30K.

      Not so bad in itself, but would've been well into the top 100k if I went for Kane.

    6. Oven Glover
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Sterling & Mustafi to Coutinho & Kiko -4. Got Klopped and lost my cup tie because of the hit.

      Smooth: Kane (C) & Dann the man coming on and getting a goal. Shame about Sakho’s injury but at least I can keep Dann for a couple of weeks while Palace have nice fixtures.

      Rough:

      - Sold Kane to

      - Zeegelaar owner
      - Alonso Owner
      - Benched Ward

      I was on 11 points going into yesterday

      Smooth

      Not much - Captained Salah, own Silva. Finished on 44 (-4). On a pretty dismal run!

    8. DonTheSpecialOne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Quite smooth week tbh, Kane (c) and Dann off the bench for Mee 😎

    9. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:
      Azpi, Sterling & Silva ➡️ Kiko, Hazard & Cout (-8)

      Smooth:
      Kiko doesn’t turn up and I got Ota’s 11 points off the bench.

      Ended on 71(-8) but team looks good for the coming gameweeks and if I didn’t make the moves I would have been 0.7m off for the same moves this week.

    10. Afghanistanislas
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:
      Bought Zeegelaar for a -2
      After captaining Kane for every one of his blanks, I switched to Hazard out of frustration...
      0 minutes from Mee

      Smooth:
      Points from Salah (does it even matter though?)

      1. Mick J
        • 8 Years

        Points from Salah does not matter much on your overall rank unless you captain him, it seems.

      Took a -4 to do Kane and Pogba to Firmino and Hazard. Like every gameweek since about gameweek seven, I’d have more points if I just didn’t touch it.

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Rough : bought Zeegelaar to be prepared for Christmas rotations

      Smooth : pondered all week about whether to put Otamendi ahead of Zeegelaar on bench in case Mustafi didn't play - and finally chose Ota. Now up to OR1368 (best ever and very happy)

      Rough. Elliott and Silva to Speroni and Coutinho. Played Speroni over Fabianski to boot.

      Smooth. Captained Kane so still got 60 and a green arrow.

    22. The Rumour Mill
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Captain Hazard. Transfer strategy of Tom Carroll, Daniels, Otamendi out for a -4 in favour of the now injured Ramsey, Mariappa and Christensen cost me 12 points, and I now have to sort Ramsey out. Ben Mee out injured meant I missed the clean sheet there, so no defensive returns. Morata and Sane were useless.

      Smooth: Kane and Salah and Fabianski.

      Total score of 42 after the hit. At least I qualified for the FPL cup. Somehow managed to win a H2H match in my ML against my best mate who managed 22 points! Also won my first round FFS cup match so pleased about that.

      Thats 7 captain fails in the last 9 gameweeks 😀

      Rough - No one else on my team got more than 2 points, only had two playing defenders, Hazard (c). Nice big red arrow!

      Onwards and upwards! 🙂

    25. Speédy
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough : Mustafi over Otamendi two weeks back. About 20 point swing.
      Smooth : Kane(c)

    26. Soonmixdin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      A middle of the road week for me - 54 points and OR 2456.

      Rough: Hazard (c), Morata, Sterling, Gross, Maguire & Sakho. Pope & Gomez on the bench (12 pts)

      Smooth: Kane, Salah, DCL, Ward & Fabianski

      Already pulled the trigger on Sakho > Otamendi for GW17. Otherwise happy with my lineup:

      Pope
      Ward Gomez Otamendi
      Hazard Sterling Salah Davis
      Kane Morata DCL

      Subs: Fab, Maguire, Daniels, Gross

    27. Could Have Ben Mee
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: In an attempt to tidy up my bench for upcoming rotation over Xmas I brought in Zeegelar and Ramsey for a hit on Saturday. Then Zeegelar gets sent off and Ramsey does his hamstring 🙁

      Smooth: Kane (c), Salah, Ward, Gomez

    28. Expected Toulouse
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Got Coutinho, Hazard and Ramsay in for a hit. Captained Hazard over Salah. Got rid of Kane.
      Smooth: Otamendi scoring for the second consecutive week after having him for many blanks.

    29. UpAndAway
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Captained Hazard after missing out in his haul last GW. That makes it 6 captain fails in a row...I keep missing Kane’s point hauls!

    30. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough - mee didn't start. otamendi second sub. Chelsea double defence

      Smooth - Kane (ç), Salah, brought in Gomez . First green arrow after 4 reds

    31. Ramboros
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Zeegelaar red card. 1 point from 4 defenders. I did Silva to Ramsey this round. Coutinho was benched.

      Smooth: Kane (C)

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

      Rough Alonso again! Brought Kiko Femenia in who's injured, Totally 4points from GK+ 3 def's.

      Smooth. Kane (c), Salah. Saved 1FT so having 2 atm., decent 54point GW.

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

        And more Rough. Owning Milivojevic. Benteke took 6points out of pocket by taking that penalty.

    33. Awesom-o
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:

      Kane and Hazard captain and vice captain the wrong way round for the third week running
      Brought in Sakho who got injured first half and benched Otamendi.

      Those two decisions this week alone cost me over 20 points

    34. The Trout of No Craic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Sold Oto for Alonso previous GW and Silva for Sterling before that so slightly peeved but will probably all work out long term....

    35. J0E
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth: Kane (c), Salah, Otamendi and Fabianski points.

      Rough: The other seven did absolutely nothing.

      Nevertheless, healthy 64 pt GWK and up to a season high 12K.

      1. Soonmixdin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Otamendi - bordering on essential for the foreseeable future?

      2. LosBlancos
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Lovely captain Jonty 😉

    36. Asaam
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Benteke costing Zaha a 2nd assist. Hazard captain. Calvert points staying on the bench again

      Smooth: Otamendi, double burnley defence. 64 points taking me up to 18k OR, my highest so far.

    37. KJT123
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Used my 2FT to offload Otamendi and Choupo to Kiko and Ramsey.

    38. Arn De Gothia
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough
      coutinhos cameo to block DCLs points, Haz C

      Smooth
      Sold Morata for Austin 🙂

    39. asquishypotato
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough

      My transfers this week were Phil Jones and David Silva out for Kiko (injured) and Coutinho (inexplicably dropped)

      Hazard Captain fail when everyone in my league went for Kane. Lesson learnt: Stoke v Spurs, Captain a spurs player

    40. Amsterhammer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Hazard captain fail.

      Naughton coming in for Moreno and my pon

      1. Amsterhammer
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        *punt on Bony, mostly for nostalgia reasons worked brilliantly.

    41. wulfrunian
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:My one ft was Kun->Benteke.You can imagine my frustration.I benched Dann.My second transfer was Sane->Hazard.Also very dissapointed because Davies+Gomez+Kola couldn't keep for another gw a cs.In this gw it would make a huge difference like Ota did.
      Smooth:Benteke lost the penalty but at least i have Begovic.Agains Salah,Kane(c) but mainly Mahrez's goal gave me 70 points.

    42. Rohirrims
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough week. Only smooth's being captaining Kane and playing Ward in an otherwise a miserable week.
      My transfers were:
      Sterling > Coutinho (-1)
      Fabianski > Courtois (-4)
      Trippier > Kiko (-2) Though him not playing doesn't hurt as I had benched him but his yellow flag is a worry for this week now.

      Had I just done Trippier out for someone I would be at 56 points net vis-a-vis 47 points now. Dropped in OR out of the top 100k and bit miffed by that as well. After Saturday average score was 21 points and in spite of only 3 points coming from auto subs the average of 43 seems a bit high given that most of the highly owned players blanked.

      Team still looks good and well set up for Christmas so hopefully can claw back some of the ranks.

      @ Jonty

      Rough : Captain fail two GWs in a row ( Kane - GW 15 and Morata - GW 16)

      Smooth: Silva and Otamendi scores again and saving my GWs..

    44. Hungry Singh
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:

      Otamendi and Silva transferred out for Coutinho and Zeegelaar.

      21 point swing.

      It still hurts.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Wowsers, unlucky mate, that's FPL pain right there!

      2. Lovejoy
        • 8 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Exact same here - really haven't got over it yet

    45. jia you
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Dann + Jones to Zeegelar + Alonso (-4)

      Smooth: Kane(C) / Alli attacking dbl up and Ward / Fabianski at the back helps me to get a healthy score and climb 350k places.

    46. Bragazeti
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      All smooth - Kane(c), Otamendi and Gomez points off the bench to take me to top 20k for the first time in history

    47. TRE2
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Sold Silva and Otamendi for Hazard and Zeegelar (luckily benched Zeegelar).

      Smooth: Kane(c)

    48. Rolls off the tongue (BCFC1…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Gameweek 16 smooth....

      Captaining Kane nice assist off Gomez...

      Rough....

      Scott Dann!!! Ive kept him by luck and played gomez Dunk and Maguire...... and left 19 points on the bench in Otamendi and Dann...

    49. Dynamic
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      ROUGH

      Did Otamendi + Silva (19) -> Schlupp + Hazard (3)

      Wildcarding soon so thought it made sense.

    50. Feyzi
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Wildcarded and went from 32k to 22k thanks to Otamendi and captain Kane... Rough; acquired Zeegelaar and Ramsey as part of the WC process and both appear to be losses...

    51. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Hazard captain fail
      Smooth: Otamendi 11 points from bench

    52. Samurai Blue
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth: Kane (c), Fabianski, Tarkowski.
      Rough: Everything else. Small red arrow to 56k OR from 48k. At least I have 2 FTs for tomorrow's deadline.

    53. zon
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: I forgot to hit 'confirm' after giving Kane the armband... Luckily Salah minimized the losses. Otamendi on the bench.

      Smooth: 58p overall, up to 15k.

    54. The Cisco Kid
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I’ll call it smooth overall. Had Pogba last week and considered a few moves, including taking a hit and downgrading Kane to get Hazard. Instead, I made a last minute decision to get Son instead. Instead of Hazard + Firmino (probably?) for a net loss of 1, I ended up with 38 from Kane and Son.

      Still, losing Mee hurt, because it left me with Alonso, Kolasinac, and Zeegelaar coming off the bench for a giant goosegg from my defenders. And, like many, I’m sure, DCL on the bench. He’ll play instead of RLC for the midweek.

      Numericals: 63 points, green arrows all around, up to the top 28K.

    55. President Giggs
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Did Bavies and Silva to Kiko and Hazard. Also had Mee and Alonso for a grand total of 0 from my starting defenders.

      Smooth: Scott Dann came off the bench to rescue me, Kane (C) worked out well. 59 points and a solid green arrow.

    56. FFPro
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Alonso/Silva -> Zeegelaar/Hazard and benched Ward as a result. Cost me 19 points, and probably another 4 pts to deal with Zeegelaar. Absurd luck.

    57. Lovejoy
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:
      Silva/Otamendi -> Coutinho/Zeegelaar (-4) when I thought Silva was injured is the most costly transfer I've ever made, benched Ward, back 5 got 4 points between them.

      Smooth:
      Kane (c) dragged me into semi-respectability, Salah as ever bringing in the points

    58. The Moe
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Transferred Silva to Ramsey for a hit 🙁

      64p despite this, so a good gwk afterall.

    59. Pap Le Cissier
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Staring at otamendi and his points on the bench

      Smooth: first correct Kane captaincy haul

    60. Toby Lerone
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth: 61 points, Kane capt, salah ward and fabianski

      Rough: had otamendi first sub. Played maguire and Daniels (why)

    61. Cadenza
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth: Kane (C), held onto Silva despite of numerous drops, Salah, Fabianski, Gomez.
      Rough: Only two playing defenders; Mustafi, Kiko and Mee all injured. Coutinho benched.

    62. KP02
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I don't think I've had a worse Gameweek.

      Apart from Salah there was no Smooth

      I was so frustrated with Kane that I sold him, usually very patient but thought his price tag was too big for these blanks..

      Kane, RLC, Sane -> Calvert Lewis, Hazard and Cout (-8)

      C Hazard ...

      Ended up with 23 (including the -8) points .....

      Anyone top this???

    63. Santigold
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Took a -4 hit to get Coutinho for Silva. Lost 11 points right there. Also switched captaincy from Kane to Salah on Friday night.

      Smooth(ish): Captaining Salah instead of Kane only cost me 1 point. Also had Naughton subbed in for Mee.

    64. Shultan
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: did sane & jones > haz & kabsele for -4
      benched otamendi & played kabesele.
      Would've been better off saving FT

      Smooth: kane (C), kept Davies & joselu both of whom i was tempted to transfer out this week but kept due to fixtures & they returned

    65. Salah'd n Sauce
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough :- Decided on a really risky DSilva > Mahrez punt.... Kind of paid off as Mahrez scored but Silva did too. So 50/50.

      61pts ok but team looking a bit shaky now - Moreno out and Mee at risk.

    66. Adds04
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      ROUGH! 6th captin fail in a row! This week hazard 4pts, Kane 4pts, morata 2pts, sane 2pts, Kane 2pts, Kane 4pts that's 18 points in 6 weeks.

    67. arndff_
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough
      - Played Mee(75%), while Daniels was my 1st sub and Long -- 3rd one, so forgot to swap Daniels and Long... Lost 6pts.
      - Did DSilva > Coutinho. I didn't expect to see Coutinho benched. Lost 7pts.

      Summary: Lost 13pts at all.

      Smooth:
      - Green arrows everywhere except LMS league + one H2H league, where I lost from a lad who used TC chip on Kane.
      - First time this season into Top 10K.

    68. Goalosaurus
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Transferred out ward (bur) to zeegelar, who was 1st sub and came on for Mee no show. Took a hit to do Sane to Coutinho, waste of 4 points.

      Smooth: Kane captain, Salah, and D.Silva getting me to 49 points all out. Hopefully learned my lesson wrt to hits.

    69. Over Midwicket
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Silva(goal and baps) to Ramsey(inj), double Chelski def picking up a cumulative 2 points, Kiko and Moreno injuries ravaging my team

      Smooth: Salah(c), Kane, double Burnley D for a small green arrow

    70. Stat Sloth
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:

      The way Scout Notes have been made into approx ten articles instead of two has made me not read a single one. Takes too much time.

      Smooth:

      Not reading articles on FFS gives me more time to explore the world of Pokemon, generation three.

    71. the Penman
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Like many here, I only got points from Pope, Salah and Kane. Captained Hazard.

      Still scraped over average, but 45 and a red arrow sliding back towards tipping over 1m OR.

    72. Ayling Buyers Club
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth af: Was about to pull the trigger on Dann -> Femenía, but I didn't because it would leave me with a selection headache. Started Mee, so Dann came in off the bench. Healthy 68 pts overall.

      Did Sterling -> Ramsey, which isn't really rough, but it certainly wasn't a massive success.

    73. lugs
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      rough
      i took a giant 16 point hit that backfired spectacularly by getting rid of Ota/Silva/Pogba/Azpi/Gray to bring in Zeeglar/Hazard/Ozil/Christ/ and DCL who i benched , to leave me 34 points worse off if i hadn't made any transfers 🙁

      smooth
      i captained Kane and just about made it into the first round of the FPL cup 🙂

    74. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Did Silva,Groß,Kane > Coutinho,Ramsey,Morata for -8
      captained Hazard.

      1. Pieterke30
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        Thats rough indeed

    75. Matt Sk
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough, third time this season under 40 pts Morata captain fail overall the players didn't score much. Hope my Pogba > Martial punt pays out in the next 2 gws (was considering Coutinho but that would have ended similarly this gw). Got at least a bit lucky with Otamendi and Begovic.

    76. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Smooth - Kane C, Salah owner

      Rough - everybody has Salah, so smooth only Kane C

      All my other players blanked

      51 pts, very small green arrow, OR 600k. What a sh-tty season!

    77. Hamish Bruce
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough. Again.
      28pts. 1 goal, 0 assists, 0 clean sheets.
      Transferred in Hazard (c) & Coutinho.
      8th captain blank in 10 weeks

    78. AllGonePozzo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Lost patience with Kane and sold him for Firmino who was benched by Klopp. Triple Chelsea got me nothing. Feminia and Mee no show led to Wimmer coming off bench for 0.
      Smooth: Fabianski CS and Salah(c) saved my GW. Red arrow with 42 but could have been a lot worse.

    79. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Just 10 minutes from Wilson and no returns from captain Hazard. Still suffering from selling Zaha to Rich for a hit (for enough money and Palace slots) to get Hennessey the previous GW.

      Smooth: Saved the transfer and managed 57 points, with returns from Otamendi, Ward (2 baps) Salah and Kane. 338k to 269k.

    80. kfreeman93
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: sold Silva for Ramsey for a hit who then gets 2 points and injured whilst Silva scores.

      Smooth: captain Salah and have Kane. Mee was a no show so Otamendi who was last on my bench came in with 11 (as Jones didn't play either, phew!) 64 overall and up to 28k.

    81. Killersquad
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:

      - the app did not register my captaincy pick change from morata to kane
      - played daniels instead of otamendi

      missing out on 21 points...

    82. Toothless
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:

      Was sick of Kane, wanted hazard, and then got worried about Silva injury.

      Did Kane, David Silva and Pogba -> Morata, Hazard and Ramsey for a -4 hit...

      Stupid rather than rough? Work it out to be about 24 points worse off than if I had just left it!

      And that's without considering if I had captained Kane.

    83. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      I made two transfers this week. Mustafi to Zeegelaar and Choupo-Moting to Ramsey.

      Not only would I have been better off had I done nothing and fielded 10 players, now I have to take a hit to sort out both Zeegelaar and Ramsey.

    84. Mick J
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Like Alicia, I keep on fallin’. From roughly 150k in gameweek 13 to roughly 500k now. Is there any hope I could reach anywhere near 10k?

      Smooth: Kane captaincy finally paid off. Pope clean sheet.

      Rough: Took two hits to get in Hazard and Coutinho (hopefully those transfers will pay off long-term as it was a move away from a highly unsuccessful front-heavy 4-3-3 to a flexible 3-5-2). Totally 3 points from my defenders. Benched Tarkowski to avoid double Burnley defence. Morata.

    85. LosBlancos
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: No Kane, and Hazard captain resulting in me scoring 43 (down from 105 from last week)
      Smooth: Otamendi and Rooney goals and BAPs, lovely

    86. Geoff
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough: Silva + Dann > Ramsey + Christensen :/

      1. Kazza_
        • 12 Years
        6 years, 3 months ago

        unlucky mate but logically moves - silva never scored back to back & chelsea shud of kept CS

        1. Geoff
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 11 Years
          6 years, 3 months ago

          Now I'll be making another move for a defender and probably a hit to fix Abraham or Ramsey..

          Still a green arrow though, so I guess I can't complain

    87. Pooodle
      • 14 Years

      Taking out Otamendi for Kenny to be able to afford Sane to Hazard (-4) was a real kick in the teeth and lost me 15 points in total... Made even worse by choosing to ditch Otamendi and keep Alonso, who proceeded to blank, and losing out on a Burnley clean sheet through Mee missing out.

      Thankfully Salah came through as captain, and some points from Kane, Ward and Fabianski saved what would otherwise have been a week of blanks giving me 60 (-4) in total, but it would have been much better had I done nothing at all...

      Smooth: Kane captain, Salah.
      Rough- Taking a -8 to get in hazard, which involved swapping out otamendi for kiko, and had mee and moreno too, so only monreal and daniels as defenders at the minute.

      Been a Kane owner since GW1 and finally lost patience and rage transferred him out for a -12 spreading the funds.

      Smooth: Got 64 (-12) and a small green arrow anyway
      Rough: Would have got 75 if I had left it alone and captained Kane

      Still not convinced Kane is worth the money, even though this week hurt.

    91. EmreCan Hustle

      Sold Silva because of injury doubt and got in Coutinh, benched Burney's Ward and played Monreal - impact 13 points

      Smooth
      Kane captain and overall score 73 points

      But could have been 86!

      Don't know if this counts as a smooth, but definitely my sweetest victory in h2h money league. I topped the league, my bitter rival used bench boost to get an edge over me this week. Sunday morning had only 17 pts with my only returns coming from eriksen. Rival had captain kane plus bench boost and begovic giving him a 36 pts before sunday game with ashley young, valencia, debryune, lukaku, david silva, monreal, betrand to go. That is the very definition of all hope lost. I only had Ramsey, Salah (C) degea, DCL and had benched otamendi.

      Ramsey got me 2pts. Then the insane comeback began, Salah (c) scores and subbed with clean sheet and max bps = 22pts. DCL assist from penalty= 5pts. Otamendi scores a goal=8 pts max bps + Degea 2pts. Otamendi was coming on for the injured kiko

      He got returns for the david silva goal, and still had the phantom debryune assist.

      At that stage I had reduced the deficit from -19 pts to -6 with 3 less players. Then the icing on the cake. Silva gets yellow carded dropping his max bps as well, young gets yellow carded as well, the debryune assist is chalked off costing him a minus four pts.

      Final result? I clawed out a 59 to 58 win to take me to the top of the league. Best fpl moment ever right there! He was so unfortunate, but hey, it happens to all of us. Reminds me of the arsenal-reading comeback where arsenal came from 1-4 to win 7-5.

      Rough: Moreno and mustafi out, 2 of my preferred first team players.

      I actually had a good gameweek - the first one of the season - but I don't want to share it with you because I am a miserable feck.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Smooth: Captain Kane that was it.
      Rough: 49 points two free transfers Out Daniels & Sane
      In Kiko who missed the game, In Hazard run comes to an end when I transfer him in. Moreno and Mee injured. Plan was to have a strong bench, everytime I need points to come from it there's none. When loads of points are the bench, my starting eleven all start. Very frustrating season thus far.

    99. French Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      smooth - Kane Capper = 65 pts no hits

    100. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years

      The roughest of roughs!

      29(-8) granted largely my own doing but got burnt in spectacular fashion!

      Having witnessed another woeful spurs performance and with no confidence in captaining him, I decided enough was enough for the 12.8 asset that is Harry kane. Should've realised at this point that my team would be a titanic heading for the iceberg...

      Out went Harry kane, zaha( who had done absolutely nothing for me once again), sane (who's form ofc dipped soon as I got him in), and azpi(had to lose him or Alonso due to triple Chelsea already).

      In came Hazard(c), coutinho, kolasinac and lacazette. I had had the armband on salah all week, but with the snowed off rumors I thought it best to stick the armband elsewhere. Low and behold hazard blanked to provide me with like my 10th (c) blank of the season, as did lacazette and kolasinac, and coutinho was benched. To top it all off, the little Brazilian then came on for a 15 min cameo to deny me dcl 1st sub points, the only player other than salah to get me any sort of returns!

      Gw rank: 4.8m
      Net transfer points: -31
      Overall rank: 1.8m (after a 600k drop)

      Onwards and upwards I suppose right?

          • 9 Years

          Probably salah...

    101. Cesc's old mullet
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough (some would say stupid - and to be fair I'd agree) :
      Sold Kane (12) and Silva (8) for a hit to get Hazard (2) and Jesus (1), which ended up costing me 21 points...

    102. Fenton
      • 9 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Super smooth!

      Milivojevic owner but not at all miffed as a lucky Begovic owner too! Don't think I've ever reaped the benefit of such a bizarre set of events before.

      Kane captainer.
      Otamendi, Salah and Ward all brought good returns too.

      80 points overall, up nearly 600k places into the 500k area. The climb continues after a tough start.

    103. scootadee
      • 8 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough:

      Aaron Ramsey.

      Wanted to start the season with him, but he wasnt expected to play GW1 so i went with zaha instead, who got injured, and ramsey came on to score, i immediately make that switch and own ramsey from GW2-GW8 where he recorded just 2 assists.
      After missing GW8 i sold him to allow funds for Jones, he then went on a run of 2 goals and 6 assists in 7 games.
      So, i brought him back this week to replace pogba, he blanks, and gets injured, possibly out for 3 weeks.

    104. Railwayman
      • 11 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Rough - 6 player blanked, including 3 from Chelsea

      Smooth - still managed huge 71 points this week, OR from 32K to 11,932, brought in Pope for Elliot so I had a double Burnley clean sheet, second GW in a row with a double figure captain (Kane) + Ward, Salah and Otamendi

    105. thepopo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      I'd love to hear if anyone has ever beat this terrible captaincy run I'm on.

      Lukaku 6 Palace home (last goal from a captain)
      Kane 2 Bournemouth home
      Lukaku 5 Huddersfield away
      Lacazette 2 Swansea home
      Kane 2 Palace home
      Kane 1 arsenal away
      Lukaku 2 Brighton home
      Morata 1 Swansea home
      Kane 2 Watford away
      Hazard 2 West Ham away

      That's 9 gameweeks. I'd love to know the odds of that. I'd have had 124 extra points if I'd have captained my vice captain each week.

    106. Pulp Minion
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Not a bad GW

      Smooth: Kane (c), Salah, didn't sell Silva, didn't get Hazard for a hit, advised to go with Naughton the night before GW.
      Rough: Mee, most of the rest of my team.
      63 points and didn't move an inch in my money league.

      Could have been worse:
      Rival took a -4 and got 3 points from his Bench Boost

    If he drops back to 7.0 purchase price is his value also going to drop to 6.9 in your team value/selling price?

    Worth taking out Zaha this week for Mahrez/Martial for a hit ?
    Thoughts? Already have RLC by the way

    1. Viper

      I'd like to have a punt on Mahrez

  20. Viper
    • 14 Years
    6 years, 3 months ago

    What would you think would be the better investment over the next few weeks

    A. Gomes or Courtois (Obviously Gomes comes with an extra 1.0m)

    B. Calvert Lewin or Austin

    1. Karan14
      • 7 Years
      6 years, 3 months ago

      Like Austin as a 3rd or even 2nd striker option if he can stay fit.

      BFS is expected to sign a striker in the Jan transfer window.

    2. jimmy.floyd

    Mostly happy with my team and have already done Zeegelaar to Kenny this week :-

    DDG, Elliot (will hold until WC)
    Otamendi, Ward, Mustafi, Kenny, Trippier
    Salah, Sterling, Gross, Richarlison, RLC
    Kane, Firmino, Jessu

    Worth taking a hit for Jesus to Rooney - better form and more likely to play, and will free up funds (currently £0.6m itb) ?
