With their blank Gameweek 27 now out of the way, Liverpool’s favourable set of upcoming fixtures is sure to see plenty Fantasy managers consider Brendan Rodgers’ side as a potential source of points. Factor in the current Gameweek 29 conundrum, with eight sides currently without a fixture, and the Reds’ appeal merely increases – with many premium priced defenders out of the equation, many will be looking to freshen up their backline ahead of the impending fixture chaos. Our latest article for members take a look at the respective displays of Liverpool pair Jose Enrique and Glen Johnson ahead of the weekend deadline as both full-backs make their way onto Fantasy radars.
Is Dzeko a definite for the subs bench this weekend?
Zero mins last week against Chelsea, but his team mates managed a 2-0 win without him.Open Controls
No if he starts he will probably score very big vs an awful villa team and he could easily score off the bench
Open Controls
Begovic
Zabaleta, Evans, Davies
Mata, Michu, Bale, Walcott, Fellaini
RVP, Sturridge
Bunn, Cameron, Pearce, Pogrebnyak
0.9m in the bank.
2 free transfers.
Really struggling with what to do. Can someone please help me.
Many thanks and good luck this week guys..Open Controls
Is it worth planning for potential blanks in GW29 and transferring out Fellaini or Evans?
Open Controls
I'm considering RVP out with a similar team. A possible start and a blank next week does it for me I think.
Bloody Pogrebnyak and his redcard.Open Controls
Team is looking good for this week but I am in the same boat with holding Pearce and Pog - annoying! What about Evans to JE? Means next week you can deal with Pog by downgrading one of your mids (fellaini)?

Rafa banner? Lol, you should really be holding Roman banners. He's the real problem, but then he's sugardaddy.
Such a circus. lolOpen Controls
Chances of Azpil starting the game Elnino? What do you reckon?
Open ControlsDon't think he's first-choice at the moment. So I'd use the cash to get another def.
Open Controls
Fernando poster 😯
Open Controls
Even if RVP does start vs Norwich, Suarez's points potential in two fixtures must definitely outweight RVPs in the 'possible start' vs Norwich.
Thing is lads, I've got 2 FTs and I need to use one this week.
Begovic (Bunn)
Zaba - Enrique - Davies (Demel - Pearce)
Mata - Bale - Fellaini - Michu - Walcott
Aguero - Van Persie (Pog)
Is RVP > Suarez the sensible move? I'd probably have to shift RVP for the blank anyway with all the non player I have. Thoughts please? 🙁Open Controls
and if the west ham match is played that midweek?
Open Controls
A risk worth taking in my opinion. I'd say that's very unlikely and you have to go with what you know at the deadline, if no further news Man U still very likely have a blank that week
Open Controls
It is a risk though.
Agree that there's a good chance it won't be in GW29 but as long as there's a possibility of him playing in both GW28 AND GW29, I'm keeping.
I'll use my FTs on players who are definitely missing a GW in the next 2.Open Controls
I'd say it's very sensible but many on here will disagree. I do recommend keeping funds avaialable to get RVP back after the blank before their DGW, though. If Man U do beat Madrid though SAF may well rotate the squad more, so that'd be a wait and see before getting him back in that scenario
Open ControlsJohn: It's the waiting for confirmation thats stopping me honestly.
Triggerlips: Cheers. Ill need to convince my worse half though.
Heco: I've got Pearce mate. And he's not nailed on anymore due to poor form I believe.
Japben: Exactly my thinking. It's all a game of chance now 🙁Open ControlsIf Sturridge is fit I don't see Suarez scoring at the rate he was earlier in the season from the flank. Stick with RVP!
Open Controls
After a week of deliberating I've finally done my transfer for the week Zab to JE. Couldn't bring myself to sell Rvp although I really wanted Lambert. Next week Fellaini to Sissoko should be a much easier decision....
Open Controls
So, last time I was here, RVP didn't have a chance of starting.
Now, he is nailed on and guaranteed to score at least a brace, before discovering the Holy Grail.
What did I miss?!Open ControlsHe will be unavailable after GW30 though. He's been lined up as the new Pope!
Open Controls😆
It wasn't unanimous that he wouldn't play...Open Controls
Anyone else thinking a sly RVP(c)?
Its the only time this will be a differential.Open Controls- Open Controls
Whats your (C) flavour for the weekend? I'm having serious mental conflicts here between Bale and Aguero.
Open ControlsDon't know yet Doc.
Michu Bale Aguero RVP Mata all in with a shout.Open Controls
as above. no.
Open ControlsWith his ownership, don't think you can call that a differential.
Not owning him is the real differential.Open ControlsAll that matter to me are the top 100 at the moment and about 20% don't have him and about 95% will not captain him.
Open Controls
Not with such a plethora of other options.
There are that many other good options, with no standout pick, that a (C) of any of them will shoot you up the rankings if they deliver.Open ControlsYes, and RvP at home to Norwich is the tastiest of them all.
Greedymotherfecker i am i tell you.Open ControlsWhy so big on Mata(c)?
Open ControlsJust been set on it since the start of the week... nothing I've read on here or seen on the internet has changed my mind.
Open ControlsPunted with Bale last week, worked
Mata, hmmm. I like someone else being confident. Riding someone elses gut is a good strategy.Open ControlsNot sure Bale was a punt as such last week. Suppose RVP probably isn't this week either.
Haha.. get off my gut! I can't take the guilt if it doesn't pay off which is why I don't usually post a new comment on here!Open Controls
What might those other options be out of interest? As a Bale, Suarez, Mata owner I still see RVP as the standout candidate for Norwich at home
Open ControlsBale / Mata / Suarez / Lambert - would've had fellaini in that category but for him being doubtful. Even Baines isn't a bad pick. I just think there's going to be a wide range of captain choices in, say the top 10,000 this week and that any of them performing will make a difference.
Open Controls
In case you missed it, Japben was telling us how RVP isn't going to play vs. Norwich.
He's so certain, he's willing to place a bet!
Any ideas for forfeits?Open Controls
:ohmercilessnightturnintoday:
Open Controls
Well, if I was to be entirely honest I'd say 20% he'll come off the bench for the last 20ish minutes if Man U aren't winning and he is indeed on the bench. 70% he won't play at all and 10% he'll start. Which are good enough odds for me to place a bet that he'll be worth selling for a player like Suarez unless we hear further news before the deadline regarding this week's lineup and the blank.
Open Controls
Was carrying "Bench RVP" flag all week!
Now here's the Twist......Don't know why My gut says to Captain RVP.
This game is crazy!Open ControlsNo...you are crazy!!!

This is view to gw 29, now i have 1FT and 2.9m in the bank. What do you think?

Open Controls
If you are concerned about your team for GW29, take a look at the position that your ML rivals will find themselves in for that GW.
You may find that you're actually in a better position than most, even if you can only put out 9 or 10 players.Open ControlsWhat if I´m worse?
Open ControlsBah... Advice Mallard my a55!
If you´re gonna do it, do it right!Open Controls
Yeah I had a look and my thoughts are that if I do one FT then I'll have 9 playing. I reckon my rivals will maybe take a -8pt to get 11 but I think theres no point in taking hits for defenders. it's gonna be one of the most interesting weeks this season I reckon
Open Controls
will sturridge start?
worth risking starting him over Sissoko?Open Controls
Would you take a punt on Cisse if you already have Sissoko ?
Open ControlsI guess that would always be your answer!
Will HBA be a better prospect than Sissoko being 0.8 more expensive than him?Open Controls
No!
Open Controls
Bale or Larry Lamb(ert) for captain? Both are in top form!
Open Controls
This is the dilemma I have.......also how can you ignore Michu, Mata, Suarez, Walcott and even RVP.
Total head spin this one.......Open Controls
I have Bale (C) and Suarez (VC) now, but I can change Suarez to Lambert as VC though
Open Controls
Won't really matter as Bale will play anyway.
Open Controls
Cesar
JEvans – BDvaies – Clyne
Michu – Bale (C) – Mata – Walcott
RVP – Suarez (VC) – Lambert
Bunn – Dawson – Guthrie – Pearce

Is Pearce ---> Wilson is the best move for me this GW ? And save the 2nd transfer to have 2 before GW29.Open Controls
if i go rogue, who should i captain, Lambert or Mata?
Open ControlsMata.
Rafa's Chelsea have handed a spanking to more than a few.Open ControlsLambert for me
Open Controlsjust did a quick peek, QPR have conceded more than one goal only once, home or away, since December in the PL. OK lambert is off the shortlist.
Open Controls
from the top of my head didn't they conceded 4 against Swansea and 2 against United......
Open Controls
Mata
Open Controls
If Manu and Manc GW29 matches are to happen in the midweek, when is the last day this should be announced?
Open Controls
7 days before I believe.
Open Controls
has azpil had his rest now, will benitez finally decide to play him again? trying to decide whether to keep just for this gw or not
Open Controlsoh dear i'm actually considering Fletcher (c)........
Open Controlsnot doing it and missing a haul from him wont be nearly as damaging to your soul as giving him the armband and watching 90 minutes of nothing.

Open Controls
Sorry to be clueless...could someone briefly tell me what dafuq is up with GW29?

so keeping rvp is the flavor of the day? or are we still selling him?
Open ControlsForum is split 50-50.
Open Controlssold him days ago, didnt want to lose selling price profit on him.
This is why I inherently stink in every way.Open ControlsPretty 50/50 on here today I'd say.
Open Controls
I'd say 50-50 😀 50% will be happy, 50% will be sad 😀
Open Controls
It's no matter whether ManUtd game against West Ham will be rescheduled for midweek or not. This will just make RVP "in doubt" instead of "not playing".
Do you think SAF will start him after though matches against Real and Chelsea within 5 days?
RVP > Lambert is really easy decision for me!Open Controls
Mata owners:
A: Selling next week for the GW29 blank due to Chelsea's congested fixtures (bench risk)
B: Benching with the confidence he'll play against: WEST HAM southampton SUNDERLAND (+DGW)Open ControlsProbably the Monday before knowing my luck!
It sounds like City are waiting for the FPL to confirm a date so should be by the end of the weekend, I would suspect.Open Controls
Wilkinson's chance of starting this week?
Open Controls
low 🙁
Open ControlsBy no means a lost cause, if Wilson goes cb, he will play, worth a read, http://www.qpr.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=310968
Open Controls
Rafael and Michu or Baines and Sissoko. Which pair will score the most this week?
Open ControlsTomorrow before the deadline is going to be absolute chaos with so many captaincy options.
Also, we just know there are going to be lots of armband removals in the last minute which are going to be huge success/fails.Open Controls
11 years, 2 months agoIf RVP is now fit...anyone brave enough to captain him?
