Mark Just before you all go open those socks and slippers under the tree, we’d like to wish you – our visitors – a very happy Christmas from all at Fantasy Football Scout.
I’ll save the eulogising for our New Year Message, for now I’ll just offer out a big thank-you for your huge contribution in making this another big year for us.
Have a great day and pop back throughout for today’s articles, including Big Dunc’s Christmas Differentials.
Here’s hoping for some extra presents on Boxing Day!
Need help please - Who would you bench out of these 3 players for this GW:
1) Phil Jones (wig at home)
2) Baines (on pens)
3) Drenthe (been involved in 7 of eve last 9 goals when played)
Drenthe
Personally I'd bench Baines, but people will tell you he's too expensive to bench.
Sunderland will score........we are starting to find our feet, sdess and larsson are looking too hot to handle........
Not only bench bains, but sell him. Tired of waiting for him to wake up - but to be fair there is no one in everton to convert his passes
How much do we reckon Thierry Henry will come in at if Arsenal get him on loan?
Not that I'd consider bringing him in. 😀
I'd put him in at 7.5m but I think they might put him in at 8.5m
Providing he's getting starts I don't think I'll be able to resist GW24 Blackburn at home Henry (c).
I think the problem will be for Wenger...formation-wise. I don't think think he would make a good wing prospect. Stacked behind RVP (when or if he wasn't spelling him) ala Spurs would be preferable.
Merry xmas guys
Do i need to make any transfers like Ba -> Sturridge (4 point hit)
Vorm (Krul)
Evans Kompany Enrique (Brown Simpson)
Silva Bale Nani Walters (Moses)
RVP(C) Ba Adebayor
0.8 in bank
Merry Christmas everybody!!!
The Christmas question is who to bench??
Drehthe
or
Wes Brown
I am a Sunderland fan and I think my bias is making me put Brown in..........or is it the right option????
I would stick with Brown. Especailly as your a fan. Martin O'Neil is turning them around. Happy Christmsas
Put in Drenthe. Sunderland haven't kept a CS in a while
When in doubt defender out
Eerton can't score and sunderland can't keep cs - likely 2-1 to sun with drente assist
I too need some help please.
I have Ramieres (suspended) which means moses, N tayolor or Simpson playing. Who should i pick. And is it worth replacing Ramieres for a 4 point hit so i have someone better playing than my current bench.
That is what i was thinking but he is playing Man U? So keep hold of Ramiers and avoid the hit?
Newcastle won't keep a clean sheet, but Wigan 'might' score, so there's always a slight chance Moses will get something. They will probably all get 2 points tbh, but you never know.
I'd probably avoid the hit personally, but I guess it could pay off depending on who you're thinking of bringing in.
Play Naylor. If he is back from injury he has a good chance of a cleanie. If he doesn't play then you can trust Victor to bring you 2 points for Christmas.
LAW OF EQUALITY:
Time taken by a wife when she says I'll get ready in 15 minutes is equal to the time taken by a husband when he says I'll be home in 15 minutes!
Just did RTaylor -> Evans.
My Boxing Day team:
Vorm
Evans - Jones - Kompany
Sinclair - Silva - Nani (V) - Bale
Ade - Sturridge - RVP (C)
Ruddy, Simpson, Tiote, Caulker.
I'd like to have Caulker on the field, but who should I bench then?
The guy i'm playing has picked his team 2 weeks ago to obviously try and win the fantasy cup! Anyway..
Me: Kompany, Caulker, Shawcross, Nani, Sturridge
Him: Enrique, Vermaelen, R.Taylor, Obertan, Walcott
Still think i'm favourite? What do ye think?
RMT(i m saving transfer this week n will bring in friedel n morrison next gw)
alhabsi
evans jones vermalean
bale nani mata walters
rvp(c) ade ba
cerny richards rtaylor gower
Who do you reckon will win this cup match
Me: Enrique, Simpson, Sess, Nani, Mata, RVP(C), Welbeck, Ba
Him: Jones, Smalling, Verm, Bale, Walters RVP, Aguero(C), Adebayor
Close...could go either way. Couldn´t tell ya which...
If he captains RVP, think he might edge it.
besides nani, ba, and rvp captain I think he has the better team unless welbeck plays and does well. dont think mata will do that well this week so getting rid for bale or valencia could pay off
nevermind about valencia, didn't realize you had jones too. if you have a free though bale i think will score better than mata this week (and cancel out his bale) and then you'd already have for the dgw
Merry Christmas
Am 80 points behind rival. Was 100 at the start of the season (thanks to not having rooney :p), and managed to catch him up and overtake him by buying RVP week 3 and captaining him alot. Now he has RVP, and has sailed ahead again, is this the week to go for Rooney (c), or should i just play it safe with RVP and risk it another time.
i've changed my captain for this week from RVP to Rooney... i would say, do it!!
im going to say it loud and clear here for everyone...any team without NANI will get punished!!!!
EPICFAIL can u check out the question I asked at the bottom of Page 2....wonder what youd think
If you´re referring to Roon for the next 2 gws and then back to Ade, it could work out. If it´s easy to fund and your gut tells you to do it, go for it! If it requires juggling imho don´t.
btw: Your link still leads to my team...
🙂 no worries
I´m going to go and enjoy a couple of beers now. Maybe enjoy some christmas ham.
Have a cracking fun Christmas everybody!!
Hope you´ll all do well (except my cup opponent who has done 6 transfers this gw :D).
sorry for the repost but would really appreciate it if i could get just a couple opinions
vorm (kenny)
jones, enrique, brown/simpson
nani (vc), silva, valencia, walters
rvp (c), ade, sturrige
bench: brown/simpson, shelvey, ward
should i start brown or simpson?
how does the team, captain, and bench order look for this week? and should I be fine with this squad to save my transfer next week so i have two before the dgw?
merry christmas everyone!!!
Save the transfer.
great team.
Only difference really I just have Ba for one more week then prob Sturridge in GW19.
Play Brown before Simpson 100%
thanks. yeah i brought sturrige and nani in for aguero and sess a couple weeks ago. could have gotten mata and ba in but had a better feeling about sturrige and nani plus it gave me CHE and MUN coverage. ended up working out quite well for me
ok will do. thanks for the help mate. good luck to you!
Start Brown at home over a leaky Newcastle defence away. Save the transfer.
Who to play-
R Taylor or R Shotton?
Shotton
is valencia a good punt for the next couple of weeks?
do you have Nani? If you do than that should be enough coverage. if you dont than get nani 😉
cant afford nani as got mata and silva so want to keep some chelsea and city coverage
is valencia nailed on to play?
in for who? and what other MUN players do you already have?
I got nani in two weeks ago and this week brought in valencia for vdv for the next couple of weeks. will probably get rid of bale or vdv for the dgw though
walters out for valencia
only got jones from utd
Can I break into the top 1k with this lot?
Vorm
Jones. Enrique. Komp
Nani. Silva. Bale. Brunt
Rvp. Ba. Ade
Ruddy. Moses. Simp. Naylor
1ft. 0.9 bank. Wc available
really like the team! though not too keen on brunt. would probably save the transfer this week then do ba to sturrige next week and then still have 2 transfers for the dgw but guessing you were already plannign something similar
not sure about breaking into the top 1k but team looks quite good so guessing you could depending on captain choices
I could do brunt to Walters? Have the cash in the bank. However would mean my ba to sturridge transfer nxt week would require a hit based on my ba selling price.
Should I just save transfer? Brunt has chipped in with a few assists of late.
Maybe if brunt was walters and RVp was rooney
Merry Christmas chaps
Merry Xmas dude.
How does team selection look?
Vorm
Evans smalling Enrique
Nani silva bale ramsey
Rvp ade studge
Subs: brown Simpson dyer krul
Festive greetings?
Looking for a midfielder to add to the following
Nani Bale Valencia Gower ????
RVP Sturridge Ba
The next two weeks are my time frame and have narrowed it to Mata, Silva, Walcott, Adam and Walters. The three cheaper options allow me for a straight swap of Ba to Ade, which might be of benefit.
I am heading towards Walcott and would welcome some festive thoughts on the dilemma.
Many thanks
Merry Chrsitmas all!
Now go and spend time with your family and friends! Tomorow is the day for football 🙂
But today is a day to plan our football teams for tomorrow! 🙂
thinking of
A; n.taylor,yakubu > shotton, sturridge
or
B; n.taylor,baines, yakubu > j.evans,vermaelen,sturridge(4pt hit)
or possibly
C; richards,baines, yakubu > shotton,brown,rooney(4pt hit)
any thoughts chaps?
Happy Christmas from de Caribbean! Anyone looking for a cheap Xmas present? De Laet looking good at 3.8.
Happy Christmas all! Can't believe I even came on here today. The life of a fantasy footballer is an obsessive one indeed 😉 Now, off to real life family stuff...
Jingle bells to all.
Waiting for family to get themselves in gear for presents, and wondering - Drenthe or Huth to start this week? The rest of the team is:
Vorm
Jones-Enrique-Walker-(Huth?)
Nani-Bale-Mata-(Drenthe?)
Ba-RvP (c)-Sturridge
I like Drenthe but he can't always get points because Everton have a weak strike force for all his potential assists, but I'm also unsure whether Villa will turn up in which case a Huth clean sheet (or even assist/goal) is a possibility. First real selection headache I've had in several weeks.
Rvp hat trick tomrw please Santa. Wrap it up with nice paper and a big bow.
RMT PLEASE
Vorm
Simpson Shawcross Brown
Valencia Bale Silva(C)Adam
Aguero RVP(C) Sturridge
Any thoughts welcome!
Like it. Nice team.
Nailed on-ness. This is the vexing question this morning.
What are the chances of these players starting both of the next two games? Cheers and Merry Xmas.
Walcott
Adam
Walters
RVP
Mata
