The Scoreboard presents the Fantasy Premier League information you need from the day’s matches all on one screen, including the current top five BPS (Bonus Point System) standings from each match (potential Bonus Point earners are in bold). Actual Bonus Points will be shown when added – all points are provisional until then.
Drop Costa if he is ruled out for two weeks. For now,wait.
Good point. Have 2.1 to play with so could base future transfers on bringing him.back in
I'd try and live without Aguero. He won't get four goals every week. Still if he does that again soon you'll have to get him
Oh, I'm aware of that bud. But we all are aware of his pedigree and strike record. It's the fear of not owning him really I suppose
I think you have your bases covered. I'd forget about him unless a) he starts consistently getting double digits (ala Suarez), b) Costa is injured, or c) One of those 3 stops firing.
Cheers
How surprising, i only fell from 900 to 1600 after having yesterday only adm and no autosubs. Expected to go down to 6000 -10000 after autosubs kick in
Auto subs are done
I thought it would be more than that
Yep, only got 77 in total and went up from 1900 to 1600, thought i would loose ranking
BOOM!
Crashed into the top 1k for the first time this season! 🙂
615th.
Now to stay there!
Easier said than done! I was hoping to have a proper go at winning it this year but the guy at the top is romping it.
He'll crash and burn hopefully 🙂
How many points is he on?575 😯
I am on 509.
He was top before this week and got 113. Unbelievable luck!59 behind points for me, thats nothing. I'll have him by GW12 😉
Hmmm, that means I will have a tough time catching you instead!
I very much doubt the leader at GW8 has ever won it or ever will. Marathon and all that.
Well done pal
Nice, you could win it this year with a little luck. I hope you do 🙂
Need more than a little luck I think!
Get on mate!
Well done fellow team mate!
Do we reckon Azpi will fall in price before he returns?
Probably, yes.
Had Sturridge from the start In a draft league with 5 friends.... Do I keep hold of sturridge thinking of the long term?
Or do I take him out for Adebayor/Naismith (only decent options left) and risk someone else snapping up Sturridge before I get him back?
Hold, if they are the only decent options left then just wait. At most I can only see them picking 1 goal up In the next 3.
Is moreno likely to play again next week?
Yeah
Does Naismith and Moreno > rose and berahino for a hit make sense?
current team
bego
clyne Moreno baines
siggy sterling hazard chadli
costa Naismith kun
subs myhill downing colo mooreLast time I checked FFF, ADM and Costa were in the top 4 transferred out. Madness before we get proper news, love it.
I think both will play
Me too. I'm not sure we'll really know till an hour before kick off though.
Indeed
I think costa will play
I think the Costa one is madness, but, ADM, considering his fixtures could be an option.
Personally I think he's FPL gold and majority of United attacks will come through him. But considering it's Chelsea, City and Arsenal in the next four, he could be used as the makeweight to get Baines.
Can Ideye and Beranhino play together?
Would them both starting negatively or positively impact Beranhino?I can't see why they'd move off the Berahino/Sessegnon partnership
Ideye would be a sub
Morning lads
Is anyone concerned about the high ownership of their players? 4 out of 5 mids in my midfield have at least 44% ownership 😯
Is it time to get in a few differentials like Sanchez and Oscar?Not really as it doesnt mean that 44% have all 4 of them.
If 50% have player a and the other 50% have player b and you have a and b, you will have an advantage if both are going fine
Yes but if they score the climb up will be slow. And one or two differentials isn't too much I think..
And if e.g costa scores and you DO NOT have him, the fall will be deep
Fair enough. High risk high reward and vice versa with differentials
High risk high reward with differentials. Vice versa with Costa, Siggy, etc.
I meant high risk and high damage if they don't score in the second line 😀
1) This ^
2) Most important part is scoring the most fantasy points; obsessing about ownership levels is inconsequential
3) That said, I can't believe how concentrated ownership levels are this season... it's like there's 2 million sheep, 900,000 people and 100,000 shephereds playing
Or Siggy to Barkley next week? (ssshhhhhhhh)
😉
Thinking about this one too
My midfield is Eriksen Hazard Siggy and Sterling. Bit of differential.
This is a type of midfield I'm thinking about going forwards. A couple of high owned players and a couple of good differentials
I am always worried about ownership%...but Sterling is the only decent Liverpool option so have to keep him
The only thing that really matters is if he will do well or badly. Ownership only affects how much you stand to gain (or lose) when this happens.
That's my point. If our high owned players get good points we rise up slowly. But if we have a mix of a few differentials and a few high ownership players, we stand to gain more and it is more fun as well
What I mean is that when you have higher risk you also have higher reward, and vice versa - So just stick to your guns.
I'm finding it really hard to explain myself on this haha.If the differentials are doing really well they will not stay diffs. I wouldnt then sell them just because they are doing too good
There is a reason why sterling siggi costa ... Have high ownership - they are top in the ranking, thats what counts for me
I'm getting Sanchez. I've seen enough
Me too 🙂
55 points behind ML leader. Catchable?
Yes
of course
Easily.
One tadic captain
Easy
Any strategy for doing so?
don't look at his team, focus on yours
Play your own game.
Lots of them. Mainly just focus on your own team. Do the obvious transfers and no punts.
Thanks Fellas!
Just play your normal game, I won a ml last year having been 79 points behind after gw37.
😯
Won it by 1 point, my finest fpl hour
Wow. Well done...
Hope you actually know the ML rival! Banter galore 🙂
Is there a typing error in there somewhere? 😯
Nope!
Oh wait! Yes there is! Gw35!
Sorry, in my head it was a 40 week season
Still a huge climb in 3 weeks 🙂
Plenty of 55 point leads were closed last week alone.
So yes, of course
Who is more essential?
Baines or tadic?
*already have PelleBaines for me
Check out Evertons fixtures:
1 team from last years top 4 in the next 12.Exactly 😀
Plan was always to bring him in gw8 for me, glad it paid off
Baines imo
Baines..but I somehow prefer Coleman
The pens and set pieces edge it
Who you selling for Tadic though?
What about Eriksen?Will you have a blog about the Oscar ruling?
lol
No, I don't do blops. That's Triggerlips.
The only essential for me is kun
I'll go you one better capt. Tadic or Baines did Baines last week- got it wrong.
Baines. I prefer Pelle
Must be Baines, with all those years behind him.
Guys, can anyone please tell me if I am mis-understanding the sub rules??
This was the team I chose for the GW.
--------Krul--------
Bertrand-----Duff-----Baines
Siggy---ADM---Tadic----Sterling
---Pele----COSTA (injured)-----Welbz
___________
bench: Dier (-1), Chadli (2), Chambers (0)
Why is it that Dier (-1) got subbed into my team, Shouldn't it have been Chadli (2)? This means I get 102 for the GW, instead of 105, 3 point swing.. Cheers!No, it will swap out the first sub if it adheres to a correct formation.
I'd just be happy with you +100 points! Nice score!
Dier is your first sub. It's always sub order unless it would be an illegal formation like 2-5-3
It's not the highest on your bench, it's whoever's the 1st sub - Dier. Your 2nd sub is Chadli. Sorry mate.
thanks for the clarification there, I was not aware of first sub on the left! first season here! cheers
no he's first sub they put you in a 4-5-1 right? Formation doesn't matter it's first on the left.
4-4-2
First on the left goes in if it's a valid formation
If only they did pick the sub with the highest score.
Sorry guys, never properly had a look. Is it the comparison tool that shows average player positions?
Yep
Cheers, need to compare Chadli and Eriksen
i find that a bit missleading(some players have less defensive duties than others)
Into the 10k for the first time in two seasons. Feels great. 😎
Major objective from here on would be to beat first-season rank of 4,735. The ultimate one would be to make top 1k.
Bring it on.
P.S. - Great victory for my Dutch guys, let's do it again against the Kiwis.Well done mate!
...and.... 😀Cheers. 😉
Need you on board this week before XI selection.
Well done skipper. Hup Hup Holland!
Great job mate 🙂
Don't kid yourself with the last line 😉Ah, all we need is 3 points and we'll make sure we get that. 😉
I never got this competition, so there's a few countries represented, there's a captain and then you guys compare the totals each week, is that about right?
Any good punts for under 6.0?
Plenty.
DEF - Alcaraz, Jagielka, Kaboul, Mangala if 6m is good.
MID - Diame, McGeady, Moses, Sessegnon
FWD - Berahino, Sakho, CampbellDowning 😉
Pienaar is a good under 6.0 punt
What position?
sorry for midfield
Diame and Moses
Sakho, Cissé, Kaboul, Moses to name a few
Sakho, Berahino
Who to ditch to fund PvA > Baines?
A) Sterling
+ bought @ 8.5
+ good fixtures
+ Liverpool's biggest attacking threat
- Liverpool have been poor
- rotation risk due to UCL
B) Di Maria
+ Mr.Consistent
+ no rotation risk
+ explosive
- bought @ 10
- poor fixtures
- injury doubtB
I got rid of Sterling due to rotation threat.
Having him as © against Villa was mightily painful. A 9.0m rated mid should be captain material.
I would rather have these two than Baines but if forced to drop one i would drop B.
Everton's fixtures are too good to refuse 🙁
hey guys any glaring TFs?
Foster (krul)
Baines - Clyne - caulker
Fab - sterling - chadli - siggy
Costa - Aguero - pelle
Cork, wisdom, hutton
.2 INB
2 FT
Thinking
A) krul > Guzan
B) caulker > chambers
C) caulker > rose
D) caulker > other?
Next week thinking
Siggy > Barkley
Any ideas chaps? Thanks, happy to post replies about other teams
Got virtually the same team, even down to the 2FT and have 0.3 itb. Except have Chambers + Duff at the back instead of Caulker and Wisdom and also have Forster in Goal and a 4m.
I'd go Caulker to Chambers but would be wary of the fact Arsenal can't keep a clean sheet ATM.
I'm also considering making a move to Sanchez in my team. Either dropping Fabregas or Costa depending on whether Costa is out properly or not. What do you reckon?
is foster expected to be fit by the weekend?
I want to replace Begovic between now and January WC. Who would you recommend?
Forster/Lloris?
Anyone thinking that Fellaini can become the Everton Fellaini for United under LVG?
I hate United even more after last night. I got ADM in for Tadic last week and Falcao instead of Aguero 😡
To answer your question, NoOuch! Eriksen to adm myself
ooch
Don't think so. Not because of his talent but because his position will be different.
He'd play CDM with United whilst with Everton he was more in the hole.Don't know why Moyes never gave him a regular run of games in the hole last season
When we he ever fit
Blind is playing CDM so he is playing more of CM
What's this Oscar ruling everyone's talking about? I'm clueless
The legless lad who shot and killed his mrs is getting sentenced
Haha, so Pistorius, not Emboaba. Gotcha.
yes... but his last act was dressing Clooney's wife for their wedding... going out on a high note, some say
(seriously, that's what they're saying on Twitter)
Bego (Gilks)
Terry-Bertrand-Hutton (PVA, Dummett)
Hazard-Sterling-Tadic-Siggy (Marney)
Kun-Costa-Pellé
With 0itb, how would you get Baines in this team?
Downgrade Siggy and upgrade JT.
cheers, I'll wait a week. Siggy has Leicester next.
Moreno to who from these 3 for my draft side? Either twist or stick....
A) Alcaraz
B) Dawson
C) Robertson
D) Trippier
E) Alderweireld (means doubling up with Berty)b. (assuming it's West Brom's Dawson, rather than Hull's)
It is, yes.
A for me....D looks nice as well but don't trust their defence! Everton look like they're shoring up.
Scratch that...Dawson looks the best.
How long/short-term is this pick?Maybe until gwk 11 as I may look to bring in Trippier then if available. Just concerned about Moreno starting and Liverpool keeping cs, otherwise I'd stick.
Stick..not worth any of these
E till the good fixtures last
D? a punt maybe?
actually stick
Stick.
E
Is Mangala due back for the West Ham game?
He is but no guarantee he will start.
more than 29k managers transfered out Rahem Sterling... I dont get it...
Nor do i with his fixture but guess alot are getting rid to fund Costa to Aguero
probably to Tadic tu fund a Kun move. seems the most likely.
Funds for Baines... Between him and AdM for me
For funding Aguero and Baines I guess
Finally finished work. Afternoon everyone
Best defensive option for WBA? Price not an issue.
Dawson
Wisdom since he seems to be nailed on
If price is really not an issue - Lescott
9 years, 8 months agoDo I get Aguero if I have a front 3 of Costa Pellé Sakho?
Not confident of dropping any of them
