          I am not sure that Benteke is worth the upgrade. This is doubly true when looking at Lambert's fixtures.

          I think I will bring Chester in for Olsson this week and whoever comes in for Johnson next week. This will leave me with cash to upgrade Lambert to a big hitter or Nolan to a big hitter.

          Team then should be:

          Boruc Davis
          Mert Zab (Wisdom) Collins Chester
          Silva Coutinho Walcott (Nolan\Hazard) Whittingham
          Giroud Soldado (Lambert\Sturridge)

          I agree with you about not finding a replacement. I think we are better sticking than gambling on an unproven replacement such as Lamela.

          dawson isn't nailed on imo

          fellaini will play defensively so not a good option. if you want a united mid punt on nani or kagawa but just know that you're punting and they might not be nailed on

          hard to tell how coutinho will do. could be that he doesn't do well until suarez returns, or could be he starts doing well this week, or maybe he just wont' do well fpl wise for a while.

        I have Coutinho. So 8.5m to spend on the team....Eriksen, Willian etc temping. Rotation risks though.

      if he were to rise to 9.5 you could sell him for 9.5, if he were to rise to 9.4 you could sell him for 9.4, if he were to drop to 9.0 you could sell him for 9.0

      it's only if he increases above the price that you bought him for do you need a rise of .2 to sell for a profit of .1

    Mids: Wally, Brady.
    Fwds: Benteke, Giroud, Lambert
    Subs: Mirallas, Nolan , R morrision.

    Does it look right. Also let me know if the bech looks right.

        My thinking is based upon i reckon a goaless draw between Che and Eve.

        Nolan isnt an away specialist so he too would have a blank.

        Which one/ both would you prefer from Mirallas and Nolan in starting 11 and for which defender to go on bench ?

    Anyone fancy giving me some help in respect of player rises. I use totalfpl and it says the NTI for Giroud and Hernandez is just over a 1000 each but it also says this a 1.5% change today. On that basis they would need to hit 66000 to get to 100%, I thought the threshold was 30 something thousand.

      Why are you taking a 1 week punt if you're wildcarding?

      I'm thinking of going for nani.

      Not that that helps you're dilema one little bit

      Other than illustrating we haven't a flipping clue what he's gonna do

    How many people are taking hits instead of wildcarding this international break?

      I know injuries are mounting up but for me its a perfect time to save a transfer and maybe take a hit next week and use 3 transfers to have a reshuffle.

        Good for you, you must have a half-decent team to not have to make a transfer.

      Was thinking of a hit but now might just get in Benteks. Depends on the injury situation.

        I am guessing you mean injuries to your team and not benteke?

      I haven't decided not to WC yet. Much will depend on the fate of my players over the next couple of days.

      I did, but that was more to do with undoing my terrible transfers last GW.

    good morning, playing the WC.....starts off exciting, after about 10 days....now its painful.

    Any advice other than the obvious Wisdom risks.....

    Vorm, McGregor

    Ferdinand, Koscielny, Wisdom, Chester, Burner

    Walcott, Lampard, Eriksen, Brady, Barkley

    RVP, Sturridge, Benteke

    now to make a pot of coffee,,,,

      Similar.ish to mine, so of course I think it's a decent stab.

      Wisdom's a punt, surely, but if i thought he would get starts (plural) then I'd be in like quinn.

      Not bad. Costa over Villa, eh? I don't rate Farfan, although he has typically been listed as a striker in the past, I thought. Is Oscar going to be fit? Is Luiz a rotation doubt? Probably not.. How's your bench looking?

      Thoughts on mine?

      Bravo (Courtois)
      Ivanovic, Boateng, Maxwell (Juanfran, Uchida)
      Lampard, Pogba, Fuster, Bernard (Draxler)
      Messi, Ronaldo, Cavani

        Costa been scoring more than Villa, picked Farfan over Draxler but not sure... with Messi and Ronaldo its hard to have a great team but I reckon they will both be great. I like your team but not sure about Lampard minutes 🙂

      Casillas will play in the Champions League (c)Marca
      What's the price of Nani? Wouldn't go for him unless he is very cheap, a lot of alternatives are available.
      Bench? You can make manager substitutions during each GW, so it makes sense to have a strong bench!
