      Looks pretty good to me, I don't play UCL but that team looks great on paper!

      Will Moya start over Oblak?

        Why wouldn't he?

          Sorry, read into this after I posted. Don't follow La liga, so I just assumed the higher-priced lad would be starting... All clear now.

            is Do Nascimiento going to play?

              11 years, 10 months ago

              I have no idea about him. He is cheap and has high ownership so I assume so

    What move would you make?

    Most of my players have away games this gw, feels strange

        Rarly manage to save an FT, seems so boring 🙂

      everyone is that way that looks like a really good team. make Pieters >Shawcross maybe.QPR have 1 goal.

      1. andres

        Yeah... That pieters injury spoils everything, hope he is fit for the weekend!

    My starting 11 if I do Ivano to Baines ftw...

    Feel I have earned a few responses tonight haha

    .Bego
    Baines. Duff. Moreno
    Siggy(c). Fab. Sterling. DiMaria
    Costa. Aguero. Naismith

    1. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I wouldn't sell Ivanovic. Baines doesn't measure up at all according to the stats. Might be a more worth doing for GW8 though.

  5. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Any of these transfers make sense or stick? or do both for a hit?
    a. hazard to sanchez
    b. ivanovic to baines

    1. Lord Flashheart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      B

    2. Birds of Prey
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I'm going to capt Baines. Don't take the hit. Hazard played great, just no pts.

    3. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      None of them are worth doing. Sideways moves at best.

      1. Test Eagles
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        ^ agree with this

      2. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        sideways? So just do ivanovic to baines??

        1. Ryan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years

          Do nothing

  6. Test Eagles
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    I have 1 FT up my sleeve this week with no real issues that need attention.

    1) Dier (WBA) > Duff (SUN) to free up 1.4 and make the most of Duff's price rise

    2) Balotelli > Adebayor (maximise points return)

    1. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      1) Then use the cash to upgrade Balotelli to someone decent next week.

    2. Birds of Prey
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      got Adebayor bad fixtures coming. Balotelli's are sweet. Not for one game IMO.

  7. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    No united cover. No FT.

    Is balo to Rooney worth -4?

    1. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Probably, then captain him.

      1. Lord Flashheart
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Really have a feeling about ade (c) but Rooney also good option.

        1. Ryan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          The key with Rooney is that he's a good long term option. Best United attacker to have I believe

          1. Lord Flashheart
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years

            Cheers.

  8. Birds of Prey
    • 12 Years

    which would you capt.?
    a) Adebayor

    B) Baines

    1. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      A

    2. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      How did the old phrase go?

      "Baines - never bench, never captain"

  9. Rooneysworld
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Just WC and can't decide if it's too template or not. Any ideas/thoughts would be much appreciated:).

    Fabs, Myhill
    Shawcross, Clyne, Duff, (Baird, Chambers)
    Ramsey, Sterling, Di Maria, Fabs
    Costa, Naismith, Aguero

    Once again any help is awesome! Thanks!

    1. Rooneysworld
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      and boyd in midfield.... haha

      1. thorvaldsson
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        That Naismith pick is becoming less and less flattering every time I see it. He did hit form and may still score but with Boyd you are telling yourself that Naismith is definitely your 3rd striker. I don’t like a 5.4 forward being a reliable force. When Eto’o shows up then what?

      2. thorvaldsson
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Either play 352 with an super midfield that you will play every week or beef up Naismith some how.

      3. Aussie_Toon_Lad
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Baird to Moore. I'd also be tempted to go Ramsey to Siggy so I could upgrade Naismith to welbeck/pelle

  10. PhoggyRatherGroggy
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Does anyone know why Herrera didn't get an assist on the ADM free kick?

    1. PhoggyRatherGroggy
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I guess no one knows 🙂

  11. President John F. Keninnsie
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Sometimes I hate FPL.

    Me: No Costa, Caulker's 0 points on for Chester, Balotelli (C), brought in Sterling for Mata, Terry's own goal... 43 points. Dropped from 5k to 120k.

    Main rival: Costa, ADM (C), Eriksen, Ward's CS, Tadic.. 90 points.

    What have I learnt from this GW? It's too early to take risks with the captaincy, and I need to stop trying to be too clever by overthinking things (I should've got Costa straight back in).

    Sorry for complaining DZers. Time for me to get my season back on track. 🙂

    1. Stupendous
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Captaining Costa probably every week til the end after this week

    2. Aussie_Toon_Lad
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Tough break innsie

    3. Zep
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I got Costa straight back in, which resulted in a hit, but looking back I'm gld I did...

      Chin up Cap'n... your fortunes will turn next week...

      Tough luck Innsie 🙁

    6. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Tough luck this week, but you're still at a very decent rank.

      One thing I've learned is to only look forward and not in the past. Mistakes were made, but they can be reconciled by making informed, smart decisions in the final 34 gameweeks.

      120k is still very good at this stage!

    7. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Agree... My 1st three week were ruined because of captaincy decisions and Ade(this week) is my highest scoring captain till date. Nothing to gloat, but I went from 2.3m rank to 1.3m because of Eriksen/Tadic and probably Costa, it was more of a luck imo.
      Never play with captaincy decisions, atleast in first half 🙂

    8. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Cheers guys, onwards and upwards from here 🙂

      Had a similar GW myself. FPL is full of weeks like this, sometimes things just don't go your way. Best just to forget about it and look forward to the next GW.

    10. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Innsie - by risk, if you are talking about the rumors of Sterling being rested, you are right. Other than that, Sterling was an excellent choice. Your friend lucked out a bit by captaining a player we didn't know for sure would start.

      Every week there are normally 2 or 3 solid choices for the armband, this week several more with so many of our picks with home games. Who gets you the points from the short list is in the hands of the Gods; it's down to luck.

      I normally make up my mind during the week and walk away from the computer. Often the worst time to make the final decision is Saturday morning when doubts start to creep in and you lose sight of why you picked x player over y player.

      Things will even out over the season. Chin up, son!

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers mate. I captained Balotelli, not Sterling, but I was well aware of the risks associated with captaining Balo. My silly decision in the end!

        1. Rasping Drive
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Ah sorry, misread that one!

    Nothing like a rage activated WC.

    Beats that of Triggerlips everyday of the year.

    😎

    1. Zep
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      So it looks like we have at least 3 team members on the WC then...

      Bodes well for the first match...

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Zep, thoughts on ADM + Welbeck or Ramsey + Pelle?

        1. Christina.
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          My biggest issue is South vs Swans.

          Siggy/Naylor/Bertrand or Clyne/Pelle all involved. Don't expect an instant WC success.

          1. Christina.
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            Baines on your WC Innsie?

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              Probably not Tina.

              Souths vs Swans is a pain for me too this week...

        2. Zep
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          ADM looks amazing it has to be said... so you'd think he'd have to be favourite...

          Saying that, Ramsey is never far away from a goal or assist, and I think he'll be just as consistent... Pelle looks good too with their great run of fixtures...

          It's really tough, do you plan to keep Rooney?

          1. Christina.
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            ADM could be kept until GW 8 perhaps. Then a swap to Walcott or Ramsey?

            1. Zep
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              That sounds like a good plan actually...

          2. President John F. Keninnsie
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            It's really tough to separate them...

            I'll be keeping Rooney, yes. None of the big defenders are attracting me atm so I'm leaning towards a cheaper defence that rotates well. Then I'll go into this week with a Costa - Rooney - Adebayor frontline, so it gives me a couple of weeks to see if Pelle (or Welbeck) is the real deal.

            If I go down this route then it's pretty much a straight decision between ADM and Ramsey as money isn't much of a problem... Whichever I pick I'll be able to afford something like Adebayor + Rooney > Pelle/Welbeck + Aguero when the time is right...

            1. Christina.
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              I've read somewhere that the formation that spurs play leads to lots of interchanging between Erik/Lamela/Ade.

              Ade not always the furthers forward.

              Maybe look into that.

              1. President John F. Keninnsie
                • 12 Years
                11 years, 10 months ago

                Good point. I wouldn't be as tempted as I am if they weren't up against a terrible WBA side next, too.

                1. Christina.
                  • 16 Years
                  11 years, 10 months ago

                  Im working towards the following for Gw 8/9

                  Baines
                  Cesc(or ADM)/Erik/Siggy/Sterling
                  Kun/Pelle/Costa

                  1. Christina.
                    • 16 Years
                    11 years, 10 months ago

                    😳

                    Forgot about Arsenal cover...

                    1. President John F. Keninnsie
                      • 12 Years
                      11 years, 10 months ago

                      Welbeck over Pelle perhaps.

                      1. Christina.
                        • 16 Years
                        11 years, 10 months ago

                        Or Ramsey/Walc in for Cesc.

            2. Zep
              • 16 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              I guess it makes sense then to ride the next 4 United fixtures... ADM can be swapped if and when United start drying up, at which stage Rooney will be enough cover, and Ramsey/Walcott will be beggin for your attention...

              Also gives us time to make sure Pelle is the real deal in terms of consistent points scoring...

              1. President John F. Keninnsie
                • 12 Years
                11 years, 10 months ago

                The only thing that worries me is if I drop Ramsey and he scores well... 42% ownership is crazily high and a Ramsey goal means I'm starting the week ~9 points behind everyone else...

                I think I'm extra worried about this as I've experienced single-handedly how much it affects your rank when a widely-owned player (Costa in my case) does well when you don't have him.

                Riding the United fixtures then swapping in a few weeks is a good plan though... I'll mull it over 🙂

                1. Christina.
                  • 16 Years
                  11 years, 10 months ago

                  Maybe we are lucky and an injury in the CL forces our hand.

                  My fear is ADM will turn into another Cesc and keep on hurting me with pts and TV until I get him.

      2. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        I hope so.

      You and me both Christina. Best to freshen things up and stay with the pack.

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        My problem is Swans vs South though....

        And Ramsey/Pelle vs ADM/Welbck

          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Hmm, I'd go with Pelle and Ramsey personally. I think Rooney is enough United cover.

    With lot of choice in midfield in the 8-9.5 price bracket, this season is turning out to be interesting. But I feel that none of the MFs are captain material. Personally burned my fingers with Ramsey and Sterling in last 2 weeks. Di Maria looks like an assist machine same with Fab so I don't think they will be explosive enough. Unless one is willing to take a punt on Siggy or one of the Spurs MFs (never punt on captaincy) the captain choice will be a simple case of choosing one premium striker. To do well teams need to have 2 out of Costa/United/ Aguero.

    Sorry for rambling but this is my two bits. Any counter thoughts?

      11 years, 10 months ago

      Agree-

      Looking to end up shortly with

      Di Maria/Sterling/Siggy/Fab/ 5.5ish
      Costa/Welbeck/Aguero

      If Aguero has a favorable fixture captain him, if not leave on Costa

        Looks good but personally I won't go near any Arsenal players.
        Or maybe that is my rage at Wenger clouding my judgement.

        What's the back look like SAB?

    2. Sponge-worthy
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Agree with the forwards. Would love to get all three but atm it's impossible for me To get rroney.
      Which worries me alittle, i have no Manu cover.

      1. athreya
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        One of Rooney or ADM essential IMO. United aren't playing in Europe so LvG can play same team almost every week. They will only get better.

    3. Mahesh_Kumar

      Good stuff. How do you think our defences should be set up?

      1. athreya
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        I think looking at the way Chelsea are playing there is no point going for premium defenders. Soton, Swansea and then cheapies is how I am trying to reshape my defence. Although I have terry still but will remove him when I have a FT to spare.

        I do think that United defence will do well with Blind in front of them. That's why Jones injury is such a pain.

          Would appreciate your thoughts. I have Ivanovic, Clyne, Shawcross, Duff and Moore. Which 3 should I play this GW?

    4. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Perfect front 7 I believe:

      Fábregas / Ramsey / Sterling / Sigurdsson
      Agüero / Costa / Rooney

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Then all your defenders would have to be between 4.0 and 4.5 right?

        1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          3 4.5 and 2 4.0s

          Have worked as good as any so far.

    Just noticed my mini-league H2H opponent made 10 changes for a -32 point hit due to accidentally not hitting the wildcard button. Wouldn't have mattered but that's devastating!

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years

      I think he gave up after that error

    THOUGHTS FOR CL TEAM?
    Moya (jones)
    Marcelo, Danilo, Lichtsteiner (Moreno, 3.0)
    Kagawa, Rakatic, Pogba, Alonso (3.0)
    Ibra, Welbeck, Ronaldo

    cheers

    1. athreya
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Alonso won't score much. Don't understand the love for Pogba.
      Wellbeck away to Dortmund will be lucky to get 2 points. Try teams like Leverkusen, Atletico and Zenit.

  16. The Sarjeant
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Crikey! I thought Swansea was a pretty attacking team, judging them by their goals so far, until I looked at touches in the final third! Just look at the difference between the top and the bottom!

    1. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      The problems with some of these stats are most of the teams are screwed once they faced Chelsea. Eg Swans/Everton etc

      Mun looks defensively ok, but they have only faced Burnley/Qpr/Sun

      1. The Sarjeant
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Everton are still up high though.

        1. Christina.
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Im talking about shots conceded. Their 3-6 was a killer. As was Swans 2-4.

          1. The Sarjeant
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            Ah right, but still, being that low is very surprising.

    2. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Wow that is quite surprising.

      I guess since they have heaps of pace from Routledge and Dyer they're a very counter attacking team... Two of their games were away at United and Chelsea though, so that's something else to consider.

      1. The Sarjeant
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Look at Burnley though, almost double and they played the same teams, although it was at home.

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          True. It'd be interesting to see if the teams that play with 2 strikers as opposed to 1 generally have more touches in the final third. I think they would.

          1. The Sarjeant
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I agree.

          2. Ryan

            • 14 Years

            Yeah I fully expect a 451.

    3. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Conversion rates ... most important thing, if people are banging them in when they get the chance that's all that matters.

      Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, QPR and Leicester don't surprise me.

      Interesting stats Sarj!

      1. The Sarjeant
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        I was just having a tinker in the stats department, looking at random things and came across it. I'm not saying anything about it, just merely pointing it out 🙂

        1. Test Eagles
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Nah thats great ... I am genuinely quite surprised but I guess their conversion has been outrageously good so far!

          Siggy (c) 🙂

  17. thegaffer82
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Why oh why did I captain Sterling instead of Costa or Rooney. Down from 18k to 77k 🙁

    Oh well, onwards and upwards. Took my first 4pter of the season and it feels therapeutic

    Dzeko > Pelle
    Mata > Di Maria

    Good transfers?

    1. The Sarjeant
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I was in the same boat as you, I captained Sterling. I just wish he didn't come on at all, with Rooney being my vice captain.

      1. thegaffer82
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Yep, my vice was Roon as well. But I just knew Sterling would come on, I never even allowed myself to think for a second he wouldn't

        1. Big_Andy_GAWA
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Sterling (c) was far too big a risk given all those rumours, it has to be said...

  18. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Any Fabregas owner bench him this weekend?

    1. The Sarjeant
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Why would you bench him?! 😯

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      No way, what is your front 7?

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        5 defenders:

        Evans (Lei), Moreno (WHU), Naylor (SOTON), Clyne (Swan), Wilson (QPR)
        5th Mid: Boyd (Burnley)

        I have Costa

        Benching headache this week...dunno who to pick in the first XI

    3. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      I think he may play as a CAM against City.

      1. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        This, Cesc/Matic pivot hasn't served Chelsea well defensively. Ramires or Mikel will come in to partner Matic, either pushing Cesc up to 10, or switching to a midfield 3.

    4. thegaffer82
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Madness IMO!

      I seriously think Chelsea will score, and I would be very surprised if it wasn't a Cesc assist yet again

    5. Mahesh_Kumar
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      No chance

  19. Matakuko
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Alright DZ.

    Terry + Marney > Clyne + Schneiderlin a no brainer?

    1. The Sarjeant
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Schneiderlin won't keep scoring. So if Marney's your fifth midfielder, which I presume he is, then it's a waste of a million.

      1. The Sarjeant
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        And a transfer.

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          This

        2. Matakuko
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Fair point. I've lost all patience with terry though, what's everyone else doing with him?

          1. The Sarjeant
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I've got Cahill and I'm keeping.

            1. Matakuko
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              Logic?

              1. Matakuko
                • 14 Years
                11 years, 10 months ago

                Also have Moreno, Wisdom, Hutton and caulker.

              2. The Sarjeant
                • 12 Years
                11 years, 10 months ago

                I have faith 🙂

                Plus, I'd rather wait until I have 2 transfers and use 1 on a defender.

          2. Test Eagles
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            Got rid for Moreno 2 weeks back! Chelsea just don't look the same defensively this year!

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Dyer over Schneiderlin?

  20. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Captain

    A) Rooney
    B) Costa

  22. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
    • 11 Years

    3-3.5 mids that will play for UCL bench fodder?

  23. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Morning lads,

    Need to downgrade Arnie to someone cheap and with good fixtures. Without having a look too hard (still early and am off today) I was contemplating Zaha. (Will be for GW7 onwards). Must get a look at stats from off my g/friend's account....

    1. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Zaha or Chadli.

      1. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Or Sigurdsson if you don't already have him.

      2. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Chadli is best bet

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Arfield!
      Burnley best attacking player, on pens too, good fixtures.

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        No use being on penalties if you miss them.

      2. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Cheers lads 🙂 Already have Siggy. Just bought Eriksen, as well. Arfield is an interesting one - shall monitor 🙂

    3. JasonG123
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Chadli is looking like a decent punt (if you don't have Siggy obv).

  24. SMOOTH
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    I need to decide the transfer path I will take

    A. Aguero Boyd
    B. Naismith adm + 2m

    Rest of the team is costa wellbeck plus standard 4 in mid

  25. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    OK, so Fabrgas cannt be benched though he will play at Etihad

    So I still play 3-4-3 this week: Evans, Moreno, _____?

    ______between Naylor (SOTON), Clyne (Swan), Wilson (QPR), who to play among those 3?

    I think people will say Naylor but CS odd favour WIlson (surprised)

    CS odd: Stoke 9/5
    Swansea 21/10
    Soton 5/2

    1. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Naylor will be getting right up that left flank. Really tough choice mate. I'd rule Wilson out, just because I think the other two are better players. A toss off the coin will do, here.

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        yeah, it could end up with none CS from them but Clyne & Taylor have more attacking potential.
        I heard Swansea have most shot conceded in the box, leaning toward Clyne atm

        1. Christina.
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Leic has most I think...Swans are right up there though...close to the top

        2. Wells - Anti-Dentite!
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Great choice - I'm afraid of benching Clyne regardless of fixtures atm.

          1. Big_Andy_GAWA
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            Wilson's fixture should read 'qpr' as they're playing at home. Just in case it might chance folk's opinions of who to pick 😉

  26. Christina.
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    Swans vs South is a pain in the behind this week...

    Possible Siggy/Naylor/Clyne/Pelle involvement....

    1. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Unless they all whack a goal or get an assist there are going to be losers in both camps.

      Good chance to take a punt and bench your Soton crew!

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Im on a rage WC, so everything still up in the air.

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      goals galore I can imagine...

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Yeah possibly, but what to do with Naylor/Clyne. Both have attacking potential.

        1. Ryan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          I'd prefer to go with the Saints option unless you can use the extra money elsewhere to better effect.

    3. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      + Forster 🙁

      1. Christina.
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        On a WC? Im thinking of getting Burnley keeper AND Duff!

        Ok fixt until Jan WC

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          I had toyed with that idea but I'm comfortable playing a Southampton defender/GK every week, but not a Burnley one.

        2. Ryan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Blimey I wouldn't trust Burnley's fixtures. They are set to fight relegation all season.

          1. Christina.
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            I know, but Im going for a 4.5m keeper. At the moment It's Krul, and with all respect i can see them without a manager very soon.

            Burnley play 7 of next 12 at home. Of the other 5 games, 4 are:

            leic/wba/qpr/stoke

            Ars(a) only top side.

            I will take my chances I think.

            1. Ryan
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 10 months ago

              Good luck 🙂

              1. Christina.

                lol

    4. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      dont so worry, WC is not only for 1 game, nothing can prediction. just get the team you like for next 4-5 gw

  27. Top Drawer Jeff
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    As it stands I have Aguero, Costa & Rooney up front. Normally I'd be very excited with those 3 but for some reason I'm not. Maybe it's the fixtures this weekend but at least I have 3 regular/viable
    captaincy options. It's between Aguero & Rooney for the armband this weekend. Any help in making my decision would be welcomed !!!

      I'd go for Rooney and hope that Utd are playing like they were last week.

      Have a feeling City v Chels will be a tight game

      I like that move... see below. Good team otherwise.

      Yep, good transfer. Then if Chester doesn't win his spot back next week he can become Naylor/Lovren.

    Begovic
    Terry, PvA, Dier
    Ramsey, Sterling, Fábs, Siggy, JWP
    Costa, Rooney

    (Gilks, Jovetic, S.Taylor, Wisdom)

    Jovetic > Pelle, Ulloa or Welbeck?

    Opinions appreciated.

      Pelle for the next three weeks, Welbeck afterwards.

      Hey ILB, haven't see you around in a while.

      Can't pick between Pelle/Welbeck myself.

        I think Im going to go with my gut iro Welbeck...

        Hey Innsie!

        Yeah been absent with work and girl troubles 😉
        They just don't get Fantasy football.

        Might go Pelle as Welbeck aint done much yet.

      Pelle for me, better fixtures

    Which of these is a bigger priority?

    (A) Terry to Betrand.
    (B) Chester to Chambers/Wilson.
