The Fantasy Football Scout Leagues Round-Up

Walcott when match fit

Both? 😐
If only one, I would prefer Wally

Walcott.

The one who hasn't been injured for months... When Walcott is match fit and starting, I'd look to get him in though.

Walcott when fully fit

Don't rush to get Wally in:
ACL injury is a very serious one - they won't be rushing
he might have put on a pound or two - his initial pace will suffer
Arsenal have lots of midfield alternatives, despite the injuries
He has to get used to playing with Welbeck and Sanchez
His record after returning from injuries (so I've read) is not immediately explosive

Wait and see is my advice, fwiw.

Both

Baines.

Great team.

no, looks very good.

Are you on a WC? If so sacrifice Ivan to get Pelle/Welbeck for Sakho and then get a back up keeper.

Obviously nothing to be changed here

You've been unlucky. Stick with your team imo

Very nice team

Fantastic team - absolutely no change required - it's close to being everyone's ideal team for the next few weeks!

It's your hits that are causing your decline in rank

Depends on how long Krul is out for if at all. I'm in a similar situation as I've already used my FT. If he's out for just a week then I might stick otherwise sell.

If he is out long term, look at -8pt hit as -2.67pts per transfer. That should help you do the move.

Worth taking a hit to take him out

Dzeko > Welbeck too if fit

Yeah just Rafael > Baines.

Sounds good

Yup good move. Also keep an eye on Krul

Not this week

Don't think there is any room at the inn either

Next week's transfer, all being well.

I was on it the day I heard it's engine roar! 😎

I'll be on board

Seems like a good time to go for the train. 🙂

Firmly on the Eriksen Wagon... He himself admitted it took him some time to get used to Pochettino's system and now he reckons(and so do I) that he has finally settled in. looks far more comfortable now and has a good fpl season under his belt(so kinda proven). On set pieces and has probably the best shot from outside the peno box than any player in the league

You sure you want to get rid of Moreno just before his game against Qpr?

B

C, next week.

Potentially 3 Southampton defenders? Very dangerous, ruling out A.

How about changing PVA - their next few fixtures are not very appetising. Duff??

Maybe C next week. I'm giving up on Moreno - I've had enough.

Word on the street is that someone on here called Christina submitted 27 articles before one got accepted.

I'm one from one. Took about 3 days for it to be published.

Very similar to my current team!

Use the £2.0m and get a better defender over either Duff or Moore

4.5/5 stars if you do that

Get Chambers over Szczesny

Aguero>Pelle Duff> Baines for the next five. Then get a plan of getting Aguero in through saving transfers. Costa can serve you as captain in the mean time

* Thats an upgrade points wise also. pelle might score same no of points with aguero if not more in the next five

How much in the bank?

Chambers>Duff and Naylor> Clyne.

i have a very similar team with same front 7 but DEF is similarly weak, also have 2 FT and am thinking of doing Fab to Chadli and bringing in baines for Naylor. Such moves have been discussed quite a lot here (see Innsie) and I think it should be worth it

Isn't Lovren injured?

Absolutely

But with so many with the template teams (me included) if a template player performs and an alternative player blanks, it'll sting us big time.

such as? i cant think of many consistent alternatives. you're looking for someone who will score decently for a few weeks at a time, not a game by game basis

In my first season I played almost entirely based on fixtures, because my thinking was that the website makers probably had reasonable enough prices, so the way to get ahead of the game was through good fixtures.

I was so strict with it that I would sell a player with excellent form when his fixtures turned bad, on the assumption that his good form was due to the fixtures as much as anything. I also bought players from rubbish teams (i.e. triple birmingham) when their fixtures were absolutely brilliant. Loads of differentials was the result.

I came 13k that season and throughout my mates were telling me how terrible my team was and how fluky i was :D. The big downside was i didn't have some of the excellent value players or what we would now call 'essential' players, because I was too obsessed with fixtures.

Then I discovered FPL and play a much safer, arguably paranoid version of the game.

My thoughts http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2014/10/12/the-fantasy-football-scout-leagues-round-up-18/?hc_page=6#hc_comment_8522272

my thoughts on your moniker.. all hail Blackadder 😀

First one

Yes it is 🙂

Sanchez would be better place holder 🙂

By the time Walcott is starting Di Maria's good fixtures will nearly be upon him and you won't want to lose him.

If you buy Di Maria right now, it has to be because you think he is essential and with no intention of selling him.

Otherwise you are bringing him in for tough fixtures to sell him when they ease up, which seems backwards.

Haha good stuff. Is it finally updated?

Nice!

I'm around 2k...had like 3 non-starters though 😕

Neumman--->Berisha....but don't know how to lose 50k. ANy thoughts?

Nice work! Playing in any of the other A-League fantasy football games by chance?

what a start mate!

103 overall here

Is this trolling or is there an actual injury?

I think it is one of those international "injuries"

I have Chadli instead of ADM, unfortunately.

I have Tadic instead of Cesc

I have Tadic instead of Siggy

Got 3 if those.. with Tadic and Eriksen instead of Fabs and Boyd to complet a 5 man mid. One of those 2 will become wally real soon 😎

I have this, with a cheapie 5th MF.

Looks like every single person has Sterling, him being tired is a concern though

the FPL league stats extension says,
DiMaría: 96.00%, Sterling: 92.00%, Sigurdsson: 90.00%, Fábregas: 84.00%

this is among the top 50 of the FFS league players

Me, with a cheap 5th (Cork)

Chambers Rose Kaboul from next week would be my main targets, Southampton this week?

No you're not?

Sell Aguero for Darren Bent.

Gizzachance

There is no 349 in the world

you're 394 in the world and have no idea what to do? feel bad for ya :-/

Have you linked a different team?

You could do the ol' Fabregas to Chadli and Duff to Baines move if you think it's worth it. Up to you though

Yes, and scored and got booked. Standard Costa.

B

B and C both looks great.

C

C looks great!! Depends how much you want Aguero I guess

Nice goal, getting that much lift on the ball on a backheel is tough

Not really, no. We all knew he needed a rest over the international break. He's now had it.

Balo or Caulker out

Doubt Carroll has a place in the team.

---Valencia----Sakho----
-------------Zarate---------
Downing Kouyate Song

Hopefully Carroll doesn't get back in - one trick poney (who also makes football look ugly)

*Chadli 25 pts

I own top three and 5 out of bottom 6 (no Siggy).
