As tomorrow’s deadline edges ever-closer, Fantasy managers are turning to a couple of bustling Belgians in their droves as we attempt to ride out a tricky six-match Gameweek. Second and third for forwards in terms of transfers in so far, Romelu Lukaku and Christian Benteke both look strong mid-price options with games against Swansea and Reading respectively. With five goals apiece in their last six appearances, the duo have been in prolific form of late – we cast an eye over their statistics in this latest article for members:
What's the Fellaini ban talk? Is it because he's closing in on 10 yellows or something else he's done?
Open ControlsThe 10 yellows

(from bottom of last page)
need to go -8 to field an XI. should i play WC instead?Open ControlsI just got notification that I won a Facebook comp for free drink and food for 4 people during a match that I picked (was West Brom Vs. Swansea) for a Belfast pub for tomorrow. I am well chuffed as I never win anything !!! Lol.
Open ControlsIll go 🙂
Open Controlsme too. i've never been to Belfast (or Ireland) I can tick it off the list
Open Controlssorted only need 1 more 🙂 Ive been before, crackin; night out.

Thought this match as it provides most fantasy-related interest for me. Am still tempted to do Lukaku (c) and this could seal it...
Open Controls
Begovic, Bunn
Zabaleta, Evans, Wilson, Pearce, Davies
Mata, Michu, Bale, Walcott, Sissoko
RVP, Sturridge, Lambert
0.2m in the bank.
1 FT.
What is the best way of getting De Gea and Jose Enrique into this team?
Or is there something else you would do?
Thank you very muchOpen ControlsOK, some help lads.
A. Fellaini, Aguero, Pog > Remy, Sissoko, Benteke (-8) which allows Benteke > RvP next week for free.
B. Fellaini, Aguero, Pog > Benteke, Lukaku, Hoolahan (-8) which allows either Benteke/Lukaku out for RvP next week.
I guess to simplify, Sissoko or Lukaku / Benteke for the run in?Open ControlsLukaku. B.
Open Controls
Team of the season so far?
I'd go...
Begovic
Zabaleta Vertonghen Williams Baines
------------Gerrard Fellaini
---------------Michu
-------Suarez. RVP. BaleOpen ControlsMignolet
Rafael, Bassong, Evra
Walcott, Michu, Fellaini, Bale
RVP, SuarezOpen ControlsFantasy or real life?
Open ControlsV unbalanced if real life
Open ControlsYou can take Vertonghen and Williams out of that line up. Maybe Ivanovic instead...
Open Controls
Rvp to Benteke/Lukaku for a hit?
yay or nay
but i would want rvp for nxt gw against readingOpen ControlsNO
Open Controls+1
Open Controlsoh ya forgot to mention i only have 10 players wo taking a hit
Open ControlsThat's ok, most people won't be able to field 11 this week.
Open Controlsyea i understand that, i can see many goals in the reading/villa game, so might wanna take a punt, will u have 11 players for this gw?
Open ControlsYes, I am making 3 transfers for a hit - but that's mainly because I want to get rid of both of my Everton players ahead of their tough run + Pogrebnyak.
Open Controls
still no
Open Controls
Suprised I'm not seeing more mention of Liverpool defenders on here. Okay so Spurs at home isn't a nailed on CS but their next 4 games look very promising. With Citeh having a tough run of games I am sorely tempted to do Zaba>Enrique. Anyone thinking similar?
Open ControlsTo get 11 men.
1. Onuaha to turner
2. Mata to sissoko.
2 is obv getting a better player in but losing a better one going forward. Don't lose any money on mataOpen ControlsThoughts on di Maria as a player?
Lots think that he is over rated
But I don'tOpen ControlsI don't know if he is overrated, because I don't hear a lot of people praising him, but I personally don't rate him at all. He is fast, a good dribbler and can sometimes pick a killer pass, but he is not consistent, he always disappears in the big games, is injury-prone, and almost never finishes a game due to stamina.
Yes, I am not biased at all 😀Open Controlsi like him alot (and I'm a Barça supporter!) for his pace, crossing, and rocket of a shot.
Open Controlshe's the Argentine Adam Johnson
Open ControlsSeen him in tons of Clasicos and he's rarely impressed me. Dunno what he's like outside them.
Open Controls
Hello. Spare some time to look over this?
Begovic
Davies Clyne Fabio(!) Cameron(!)
Sissoko Bale Michu
Lambert Sturridge
Federici RVP Mata Walcott Distin
What would people do with this lot? 1 FT. My plan is to just do Distin --> Martin. Can anyone see anything better?Open ControlsOpinions on which transfer to do please:
RVP to Benteke/Lakulu and then having to get him bk next week OR
O'brien/Baines to Santon or another defender?
CheersOpen ControlsTo captain Suarez:
Spurs tired and without Sandro
Should create chances at Anfield
The RMT thingy in the Members area has him as top scorer
To not captain Suarez:
Spurs are quite handy and might have a fair bit of the ball
Sturridge will start in front of Suarez and take his chances
With Benteke and Cisse waiting in the wings this is turning into a bit of a thinker.Open ControlsI was all set on Suarez prior to last night, but watching Spurs with the way they play at the moment made me think twice. They really are in some form. Decisions decisions...
Open ControlsI'd captain cisse if I had him
Open Controls+1
Open ControlsHm. Interesting. I had it on him all week actually. I might go back to it.
Open Controls
RMT thing had Hernandez top scorer last week.
Teams are never tired when they're winning.
Spurs have been pretty tight recently.Open Controls
Demel>Dawson rather than RVP>Benteke and back to RVP next week ? good move ?
Open ControlsAye.
Open Controls
Scout Picks predictions?
Cesar/Green
Martin, Debuchy, McAuley
Snodgrass, Bale, Sissoko, Michu
Suarez, Benteke, RemyOpen ControlsBunn
Samba Debuchy Johnson Harte
Michu Bale Sissoko
Suarez Lambert BentekeOpen ControlsLooks about right. Maybe Harte in there somewhere.
Open ControlsLukaku will be there for sure, Mark is bringing him in.
Open ControlsLukaku will be in there marks pulling for him
Open Controls
I think i will go for 9 players. not going to take a hit. Too tricky for this GW.
Begovic
Shawcross Davies
Bale Schneiderlin Michu
Benteke Lukaku LambertOpen ControlsI want begovic or Taarabt to rise once or Walcott to drop twice before gw 30, hmmm
Open Controlsi don't have bale. Should I transfer in bale or sisoko? money no problem?
Open ControlsBale.
Open ControlsBale definatly
Open ControlsSilliest question of the day easily.
Open ControlsAnd the strange thing is he's not stupid
Look at his rankOpen Controls
Bale doesnt have an easy game but he's a must have until the end of season
Open Controls
Chris White, I think I will go for McAnuff and save the extra mulah for darker times. He is nailed on at least and good enough for bench fodder.
Open ControlsHis hardly nailed on, his playtime, or lack thereof, is off-putting.
Open Controlswith Kebe out for a couple of weeks he should be nailed on
Open ControlsKebe is out for a couple of weeks? 😮
Open Controls
Kebe's out for the rest of the season. I'm claiming the RK-wagon for my own and you'll all be sorry.
Open Controls
😆
Open Controls
Yeah I would probably join you if it weren't for me already owning both Fed & Harte.
So I'm pretty much torn between Gardner & Puncheon. Will probably get Punch.Open ControlsI own Federici and Pearce too, but that doesn't stop me 😀
Gardner is POO and only relies on penalties or the odd bolt from a FK. Puncheon's play time doesn't give me enough confidence and he is 0.4 from than Jobi.Open ControlsI HATE THIS GAME SOMETIMES!!!
🙄Open Controls
If I go McAnuff and Wilson, I can get Rafael next week. Not sure if it's worth it though?
Open Controls
Best defender for this gameweek in terms of points potential?
Open ControlsHow exactly has Stuuridge's form been better than RVP?
Open ControlsRvP has 1 goal in 8 games, I think.
Open Controls1 in 5 in the league, meanwhile Sturridge has scored or assisted in every league start for Liverpool - four goals, 2 assists.
Open ControlsI am counting the league and UCL games, too, in that. But yes, he hasn't been very sharp in front of goal, lately.
Open Controls
Just look at their points over the last 5-6, nothing b/w them. Even if you exclude the games Sturridge has missed, there is hardly anything.
Open ControlsSturridge's goalscoring has definitely been better than RVP's of late. Course, RVP is contributing to attacks.
Open Controls
Sturridge has attacking returns in each of his last 5 appearances.
RVP has blanked a couple of times in his last 5.Open Controls
Walcott going down again.. Currently worth 8.8mil to me..kind of want to sell him but don't know if i'd be able to afford to get him back in.
I want to make another transfer dammit! 9 players seems so strange..Open ControlsI wasn't aware of this....how much has he dropped?! Why people are getting rid I know not, they're gonna want him back...
Open Controls
Whatever happened to Carlos Cuellar?
He was a mainstay pre hamstring injury. Now he can't get a sniff.
It's not like Sunderland are keeping clean sheets...
Bramble? Really?Open ControlsReally. Bramble is keeping him out of the team right now! He's not been as bad as expected, but then again, that was impossible.
Open Controls
So this is what happens when you take some time out from FFS for the week...
Reading list: Monitor - Juan Mata. The Watchlist - Christian Benteke. Monitor - Theo Walcott. Versus - Benteke and Lukaku. The Watchlist - Romelu Lukaku...Open ControlsSo surely the blanks for Manchester clubs will remain that way for GW29 correct?
Open ControlsYeah. They only have 4/5 days notice now, far too little. I heard they had until Tuesday this week to arrange for midweek.
Open Controlsyeah police need at least 7 days notice, so no way they'll go midweek
Open ControlsI believe so, now.
Open Controls
I think I am all set after 2FT's
Mig
Davies Clyne Harte Rmartin
Michu Bale Sissoko
Lambo Suarez (c)
10 players
happy with it 😀Open Controlswhy suarez over bale as captain? just curious on your reasoning
Open Controls
got Bunn + Bego. Need a 4.3m defender.
Hill fit the bill?Open ControlsTurner (nor)?
Open Controls
I predicted a while back that owning Sturridge would be frustrating. Despite the returns I think I've been proven right, with the injury absences he has proved very frustrating. of course when he plays he has delivered.
