Spending money on your bench is a tricky proposition: you need to balance the cost of leaving cash on the sidelines every week versus the risk of having insufficient talent to take up the slack when your first team players are injured or suspended. You might be able to squeeze in the odd 6.0 player to ride the bench but you simply can’t afford to have 20.0+ of talent on there, generating zero points each week; trade-offs have to be made.

Much needed help required for choosing this week’s GK: Howard or Jussi ?
Open Controls-
Play the one playing at home is an unwritten rule. However, if Downing keeps up his amazing form from midweek, you might be better off with Jussi.
Open Controls -
Jussi.

Lallana or walters?
Open Controls-
I really want Lallana as he is a better footballer, but Walters is on pens, plays more advanced/in the hole and has a great run of 6 fixtures.

I agree, stuck with him since GW 1. Probably won't be able get rid of him until I wildcard

Should I do
Vorm,Michu and ba
To
Begovic,cazorla and ba for -4Open Controls-
Why don't you just do Vorm, Michu to Begovic, Cazorla? No hit, and you don't have to take Ba in and out, which in my opinion is a bit foolish...
Open Controls -
well if you dont do the ba to ba then u dont lose the 4 points!

Don't think Mata will make it after the long mis week trip...don't expect much from him this week. Ben Arfa will def be in there imo
Open Controls -
Walters for Nolan and that's mine
Open Controls -
I reckon Begovic will be the keeper with Clarke in defence

Anyone feel like rating my WC team?
Begovic, Ruddy
Cole, Jenkinson, Caulker, Figueroa, Clyne
Cazorla, Hazard, Sterling, Michu, Maloney
RVP, Tevez, Berbatov
Any comments welcome.Open Controls-
I'd get Bale over Hazard/Mata for next to weeks and then switch....
Open Controls -
6.5/10
Open Controls -
Jenkinson might not start even this week if Sagna is fit so i would probably prefer someone else(Saylor). i also think Cazorla is overpriced i would take bale instead or even HBA since you have no new cover , their fixtures are great and saves money for maloney-walters or morrison or even lennon.
Open Controls -
Cole and Jenkinson wouldn't make it into my WC team (just trying to shuffle Cole and Mertesacker out of my team as we speak). Far better to go for Baines and a cheap defender.

Who gets the armband?

Tevez.

I'm going Tevez..he's gonna start and will surely not go 6 without scoring. He'll have a point to prove too after Dzeko has gained ground on him recently

Hello everyone, who should i bench of the following? (one of them)
Hazard, Bale, Gervinho, Nolan, Michu, Ba, Berbatov, FletcherOpen Controls-
Michu
Open Controls

Capt:
Bale
Berba
Carzola
RVP
I’m actually leaning towards Berba. Bale also a real contender, but everytime i seem to captain him he draws a blankOpen Controls-
Fulhams away form concerns me but also in the same boat. A good differential too..

Re-up:
I am really tempted with Rafael > Kolarov for a few weeks.
3 at the back Wilson, Baines, Kolarov – with Clyne (with the best run of fixtures he’s ever going to have) as the man coming in any weeks Lols is rested.
Sound plan?Open Controls-
With the current formation(which favours Kolarov!) not working for Mancini, I'd stay away from him.

Youngster Luke Shaw could start for Saints this weekend. Massive prospect. No FPL interest though, just letting y'all know!
Open Controls -
Pog? Aw hell no!
Open Controls-
What if Bale Caz Silva Mata all hit form at once? He could be a great option. Good value.
Open Controls-
Then sacrifice your defence, not the precious striker spots!
Open Controls -
+1
Open Controls -
Even at that price I don't see the 'value' - you'd only have him in because you need the money elsewhere which means a minimum of two transfers required when you inevitably want to get rid of him. I prefer a more balanced team personally but then I'm not very good at this so maybe you're right 🙂

Already done Piennar and Maloney to Bale and Walters for -4
Is there any logic in getting rid of Torres/Suarez for a further 4 points? for BaOpen Controls -
Tempted to captain crouch over tevez... dumb?
Open Controls -
any of these transfers good bets?
A) rvp to aguero to fund michu to mata
B) baines to distin to fund michu to mata
C) A or B but pienaar instead of michu.
A+B involve starting clyne
C would mean i get to play michu
note that i have tevez so A/B would mean a front line of aguero tevez ba
plan to do this for 2 weeks and then bring in rooney for aguero or tevezOpen Controls
