    Team b4 1ft. 1.5itb.

    Krul, Elliott
    Ivanovic, Clyne, Dier, Hutton, Moore
    ADM, Sterling, Siggy, Downing, Boyd
    Aguero, Costa, Pelle

    (a) Dier out, Baines/Kompany/Koscielny in.
    (b) Krul out, Mannone in
    (c) Pelle out, Welbeck in
    (d) Anything else that I've missed

    Plumping for (a) with Baines as (b) Krul has Leicester at home this week & could get a cs (in theory at least) but who knows as defence is a bit of a lottery in trying to predict cs. I feel that having both Ivanovic & Baines could be a differential. I note on fplstatistics that Baines is only at 5.9% so plenty of time to make up my mind. The only thing that worries me with Baines is Everton's defence & lack of cs but surely this will improve with their upcoming fixtures. Kompany & Koscielny also are options instead of Baines with good upcoming fixtures.

    Thanks in advance.

      (A) looks like a clear improvement for FPL points.

        I have all. Can't go wrong but I'd back Downing. Save a few quid.

    Ok any suggestions are highly appreciated !

    Courtois, Elliot
    Clyne, Moreno, Wilson, Duff, Moore
    Fabregas, Sterling, Siggurdson, di Maria, Boyd
    Diego Costa, Aguero, Welbeck

    2FT, 0.2 in the bank

    Will wait as long as possible because of internationals. I was thinking: Curotis and Moreno out for Mannone/Guzan and Baines. Worth it ? In that case who to pick Mannone or Guzan ?
    Any other suggestions like: Courtois, Fabregas and Wilson out for Mannone/Guzan, Baines and Tadic ? -4 hit

    Thanks

      If you've held him so far then keep him for a week more and see what he does against QPR

    2. The Gambler.
      • 14 Years

      wait one week? goal and CS for Moreno vs QPR 🙂

  5. ManTree(v2!) or just JAY!

    Anything need changing guys?

    Have 1FT and £0.1m in bank.

    Team:
    Krul, Foster
    PvA, Clyne, Moore, Hutton, Chambers
    Siggy, ADM, Fabregas, Sterling, Albrighton
    Costa, Aguero, Pelle

    1. Pompel
      • 10 Years

      Awesome team there mate - maybe just look to swap Krul? Nothing else needs fixing imho

  6. wikidwhite
    • 12 Years

    How do I look guys please? Any advice? Already used my transfer....

    De Gea - (Guzan)

    Coloccini - Clyne - Baines - (Williams - Aanholt)

    Fabregas - Di Maria (Vc) - Siggy - Sterling - (Chadli)

    Costa (C) - Pelle - Naismith

    0.8 itb. Thanks!

    1. The Gambler.

      too much in MF imo

      1. Elly88 > KTR (Kevin The …

        + Benching problems.

  7. NATSTER
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Aguero is fixture proof, but I feel Pelle & Welbeck have comparable form & fixtures on the coming GWs.

    Welbeck HUL , sun , BUR , swa , MUN , wba
    Pelle SUN , STK , hul , LEI , avl , MCI

    Aguero TOT , whm , MUN , qpr , SWA , sot

    As Man City will have a match on every 4 days until a game with QPR, I think I can wait a while.

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years

      Did you watch the Aston Villa game?

        1. Billy Gilmore
          • 12 Years

          Aguero is a ticking time bomb.

          1. Jebiga
            • 12 Years

            This !

            Meaning?

            1. Billy Gilmore
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              Massive points are on their way.

              1. Pompel
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 8 months ago

                Surely hope so - he needs to make up for not outscoring ADM (who I don't have) this weekend

              2. NATSTER
                • 13 Years
                9 years, 8 months ago

                Yes, I saw the game. Aguero was unlucky not to get hat-trick against Villa. I'm actually scary to go without him too.

  8. palace ash
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Muniesa or Wilson?

    1. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years

      Don't go near those trolls.

  9. The Gambler.
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    first GW so far i havent had an injury or suspension to deal with, have had 2 most weeks actually.

    refreshing to sit back for 2 weeks without the knee going...

    1. Warning Hazard ahead
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'm in the same boat finally, gonna hold off and go Ivan and Moreno to Azpi and Baines in GW 9 i think.

      Good move?

  10. thegreathoudini
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Begovic / Gilks
    Ivanovic / Wisdom / Clyne / van Aanholt / Taylor
    Boyd / Sigurdsson / Di María / Sterling / Fábregas
    Falcao / Ulloa / Diego Costa

    2 FT, £0.7m in the bank.

    Suggestions? Thinking changing keepers?

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      If ur changing keepers, lloris looks a good buy, great fixtures after man city away.

      I myself am also not sold on ulloa and falcao and prefer the template welbeck, pelle, Costa strike force, but it could work out well. Just conscious of man utds fixtures

  11. YuvalSpurs

    Off topic question:

    Anyone here knows this tickets site? http://www.livefootballtickets.com/
    Do you know if this site is reliable? (Tickets for a tourist?

  12. Stats Don\'t Lie
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Is it too risky to double up on Southampton defence?

    1. Warning Hazard ahead
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yes, think you may have missed the boat on that one. Look at Jagielka maybe instead?

      1. Stats Don\'t Lie
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        basically this is my def
        Bego/McCarthy
        Dier, clyne, Moreno, Ivan, duff

        So I was thinking of getting rid of dier for kaboul and am not impressed with Moreno so I want him out as well. I was thinking jagielka but evertons defence right now is pretty bad.

        BTW, I have 0itb. I'm stuck, help!!!

        1. Warning Hazard ahead
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I truly believe even Everton will get at least two clean sheets in the next 6 and Jags is the 2nd biggest goal threat in their defense with Coleman out.

        2. Warning Hazard ahead
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          So yes, I am thinking ---> Moreno to Baines or Jags too.

          1. Stats Don\'t Lie
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Since I have 1ft then I might do dier > kaboul this week
            And get out Moreno if he doesn't get points after the qpr game. Sounds like a plan.

            Also, I think baines over jags if you have the funds

  13. jackx13
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years

    Lost at the bottom of a previous page. Any suggestions about this team?

    Mannone - Krul

    Moreno - Rafael - Bertrand - Moore - Hutton

    ADM - Siggy - Fab - Sterling - Boyd

    Costa - Pelle - Dzeko

    2.0M in the bank, and 2FT.

    Thanks!

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Dzeko > welbeck
      Rafael > ivan/azpili
      Boyd > chadli

      Would be the 3 I'd be looking at

  14. DO RE MI MATA
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Having now both Pelle and Tadic, is it too much? Who'd you get rid of (only 1FT)

    A - Krul (only one goalie)
    B - Tadic
    C - Pelle
    D - keep FT

    1. jackx13
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Keep FT.

  15. Holmes
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Pelle or Welbeck?

    1. Jebiga
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Welbeck is cheaper and plays for Arsenal

  16. Jebiga
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Who will score more points in next 5 games : Mannone or Guzan or any other 4.5 or 4.6 keeper ?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Guzan I think

      1. Gunner HitIT
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Vito

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Fixtures arent great 🙂

  17. Jam0sh
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Rio out for Azpi, Jagielka or someone else (max 6.2)?

    1. Warning Hazard ahead
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Jags with this run of fixtures, bit of goal threat and at least a couple of cleanies in the next 6 I reckon.

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Cheers

  18. Ady87
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    £2.6m ITB. 1 FT. What would you do?

    Lloris (Krul)

    Bertrand Kompany Naylor (Wilson Wisdom)

    ADM Fab Sterling Siggy (Cork)

    Costa Pelle Welbeck

    1. DO RE MI MATA
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      sit back and relax I guess

  19. Redhulkster
    • 10 Years

    Keeper till jan wc?

    Exclude saints and chelsea

    1. Warning Hazard ahead
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Lloris or Mannone

      1. Redhulkster
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Ty hazard 🙂

  20. Zola
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Hey guys, really want to bring in Aguero for Falcao - any ideas how best to raise the 1.3 needed to finance this? I've got 2FT.

    Begovic, McCarthy

    Ivanovic, Clyne, Naylor, Moore, Duff

    ADM, Fabregas, Sterling, Siggy, Boyd

    Costa, Falcao, Welbeck

    I guess my main options for downgrading are Ivanovic, Sterling or Welbeck.

    Been considering Welbeck - Sakho and Falcao - Aguero, which would leave the exact funds to do Sterling - Walcott, which would hopefully make up for losing Welbeck.

    1. micsway
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Do it. Otherwise drop ivano if you dare.

    Hopefully i will reach top 10k on the end. Current status:

    1. Gunner HitIT

      85K overall.. 104 tv

  22. Fader
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Foster
    Ivanovic, Clyne, Wisdom [Duff,Targett]
    Siggy, Sterling, Fabregas, ADM [Jedinak]
    Costa, Aguero, Welbeck

    I'm thinking after next GW swap out Jedinak for a 4.4m and upgrade Duff to Chambers?

    1. Jebiga
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      yup ! boyd is perfect 4.4 pick 😉

      1. Fader
        • 10 Years

        Thanks ; )

  23. Warning Hazard ahead
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Do you think it's a move in the right direction to go:

    Ivan ----> Azpi/Cahill Moreno ----> Baines

    and

    Sterling/Fab ----> Downing/Chadli Pelle -----> Kun

    Over the next 3 GWs?

    1. Gunner HitIT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Kun

      1. Warning Hazard ahead
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Doing these moves is about the only way to get Kun I think...

        1. Stats Don\'t Lie
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Kun is not that necessary and I think not doing those transfers will benefit you more, points wise.

          1. Warning Hazard ahead
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Thanks! I'm stuck because I know that Pelle Costa Welbeck is a good enough strikeforce but I'm so worried I'll miss out on Kuns eventual 15+ haul and drop madly with people likely to captain him a lot.

            1. Stats Don\'t Lie
              • 9 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              It will be for like 2 weeks then his hammies will go again. I just feel that I get better value with pelle and welbs.

              BTW, what's your full team?

  24. Gigging Order
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    LVG on ADM and Rojo for the match against WBA.

    "They are coming back with jetlag so I cannot train them at once and then I have to wait,"

    1. The Finnisher
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Hopefully he rests ADM for Arsenal's sake 🙂

    2. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Oh, great. Wonderful. Well, at least I will have made some money.

    3. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      meanwhile ADM price will go up by £0.3, and will be even harder to squeeze in when fixtures ease ... so frustrated not bringing him in before this GW 🙁

    4. NATSTER
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Same to be applicable to Aguero then.

      1. Billy Gilmore
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        His game is 2 and a half days earlier than Man Utd's too 😯

      2. Pompel
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        don't say that ... my masterplan was a big haul from Kun (c) next GW 🙁 🙁

  25. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Right - I have been chewing, and chewing. Can't swallow.

    Right now, the defensive options that I see are

    Shackell - the safe choice
    Baines - the popular choice
    Tomkins - the Doosra special
    Kolarov - I see, a bad moon arising

    I am unable to make up my mind.

    1. The Finnisher
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Baines
      ....
      ....
      ....
      Tomkins
      ....
      Kolarov
      Shackell

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        I have done a bit more research than that! 😉

        1. The Finnisher
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          Enjoy then. I've watched enough to be very confident in that ordering.

          1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Everton are woeful in defence. You must have been watching someone else.

            1. The Finnisher
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              It's got nothing to do with his defence.

              Kolarov isn't nailed on, never has been.

              Shackell, I watched Burnley vs Swansea, Sunderland and Man United and there was no way they deserved CS's...no surprise they crumbled and conceded 6 vs WBA and Leicester

              Tomkins, only second in my eyes due to Baines attacking threat.

              1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 8 months ago

                OK, JOA. Thanks! 🙂

    2. Gigging Order
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Tomkins could be a masterstroke.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Hmmm ... 🙂

    3. Billy Gilmore
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Kolarov? Doosra? 😯

    4. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      No stats to back my words but I like Baines and Tomkins for coming weeks 🙂

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years

        OK. Thanks. 🙂

    5. Warning Hazard ahead
      • 9 Years

      Tomkins! His stats are impressive for value.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Indeed. That is why he is a Doosra special. 😉

        1. Warning Hazard ahead
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          I want him in but I want Baines & a Chelsea defender more haha. Soooo expensive and means I'll never be able to afford Kun without downgrading Sterling or Fab. Why so hard FPL?!?! 😐

    Dzeko is one of the most frustrating fpl prospects to hold! Is it worth to hold?
    Dzeko and chambers to sakho and baines?

      Been asking the same question. Though mulling over Dzeko + Rafael to Welbeck and Baines.

    @Doosra..didn't get a chance to reply, I've been on the school run...I would put an in form Cisse firmly in the pot with the likes of Benteke and Bony...great picks when the sun shines and for a whole lot less...

      Sakho you reckon too?

        Definitely..WHAM creating bucket loads of chances.

      Bony looks back...was a massive threat against Newcastle. Could've easily got a hat-trick. Much better than his earlier showings this season.

        Played further up the pitch as well...

        Bony could be a great pick from gw 13 onwards, SWA top of the ticker for the following 10 weeks.
