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.
Dear fellow punt takers, I'm in need of advice for the first time.
Please take it easy on me.
Started off very shaky in my first EPL fantasy season mostly due to ignorance. I had no idea how C/VC or substitutions worked. No clue about FFScout, FPLStatistics, or Bonus Points for that matter.
Thankfully after making a series of bold moves, I've been rewarded with 5 straight weeks of green arrows and finally sneaked into the top 100K

Team RxRated:
GW9: 48 pts (-4) with ADM, Ivanovic and Lukaku © left
Courtois (Hart)
Fonte // Ivanovic // Moreno (Vlaar // Wisdom)
ADM // Sanchez // Siggy // Tadic (Ward-Prowse)
Berahino // Dzeko // Lukaku
1FT 0.5 ITB
My priorities are to get rid of Dzeko, Ward-Prowse and downgrade one of my keepers.
A. Hart/Courtois + Dzeko >> Jakupovic + Diego Costa for -4 hit
With this option I would start Siggy away at Everton GW10 (Left with 0 ITB)
B. Ward-Prowse + Dzeko >> Sakho + Eriksen for -4 hit
With this option I would favor of Eriksen away at Aston Villa GW10 over Siggy (Left with 0.3 ITB)
C. Ward-Prowse + Dzeko >> Sakho + Moses for -4 hit (2.6 ITB)
D. Ward-Prowse + Dzeko >> Valencia + Moses for -4 hit (1.4 ITB)
E. Ward-Prowse + Dzeko >> Moses + Pelle for -4 hit (0.1 ITB)
F. Dzeko > Sakho with FT and +2.7 (3.2 ITB)
G. Surprise me with your suggestion!
I am open to any other recommendations. As you can see, I'm not a bandwagon manager. Popular opinion hardly fazes me as I don't mind being different than the rest.
Not interested in Welbeck because I own Sanchez to cover Arsenal. I know most of you like Pelle, but after watching him closely I feel like he either completely ON or completely OFF. Seems like every game he misses a couple of clear cut chances and today was the perfect example of what he brings in my opinion. Plus I already own Tadic to cover Southampton. Barkley looks enticing as he gets more playing time but won't get him as long as I stick with Lukaku. Aguero is a luxury I can't afford. Look out for Vargas on Monday. I was born in Chile and I can tell you he is an as good a form as Sanchez right now.
I'm leaning toward option B because of the differential potential. Been loyal to Siggy since GW1 but I'm pretty confident Eriksen might outplay him these next 3 weeks solely because of their fixtures.
Thank you for caring. Cheers.
Player - Next 3
Eriksen - @Avilla, Stoke, @HUL
Moses - WHam, @TOT, Burnley
Sakho/Valencia - @Stoke, AVilla , @Everton
Siggy - @Everton, Arsenal, @MCity
A for me. If fit, which looks pretty likely, Costa at home to QPR is not to be passed up on. Fixing the balance in your squad by ditching one of those expensive keepers is a nice added bonus.
A obviously seems like the logical choice hence his high ownership. However, all of this Diego Costa hamstring injury non-sense along with Mourinho mind games is driving me nuts. At the same time, its pretty nuts to go without him. I shipped him out last week along with Sterling and got Sanchez + Berahino which will hopefully pay off.
A
A for me, Costa could explode.
Also, two 4.5 keepers that rotate well (even just based on home/away) will get you more points over the season than a single expensive one. So downgrade both over the next few weeks.Yea I didn't pick up on the value of cheap GKs until it was too late. My initial logic was that Chelsea and MCity were the most likely to pick up clean sheets. Thanks for the responses guys!
I'd try to avoid hits for goalkeepers if you can.
Who do I get rid? Sterling or Silva to Alexis?
Hard to say really. I'd probably get rid of Silva although I'm not even sure Alexis is worth it.
I have no arsenal cover with burnley next. FT begging to be used. Silva to go?
Yeah, Silva to go simply because he has a tendency to be underwhelming in FPL.
silva it is then. thanks man.
No way. As a Liverpool-fan, i can safely say that the team is really playing poorly, and Sterling in no way is defending his price atm. We create very little, and im pretty sure none of this will change over the next few games. Silva looking extremely good, and even though he can be underwhelming in FPL terms, id much rather have the better player for the better team. Sterling is out for me next week, havent decided on going for Sanchez or Chelsea mid.
Moreno 8 pts (Sold)

It's the xfer I would do myself but would have to take a hit. A a freebie I think it's A+
crap. I know I'm hitting the reply button
fr to Ryanrf that is
Cheers mate. Its a bit of a stab in the dark but its a good option nonetheless I think.
Courtois, Di Maria, Sterling -> LLoris, Hazard, Sanchez (-8)
(Have to take Courtois out too have 3 chelsea players)
How does this look for next week
Di Maria is away to city and liverpool are terribleWhy get rid of ADM? Can you just do Courtois + Sterling > Lloris + Sanchez?
Any thoughts on the extent of Sakho's injury anyone?
was a funny old fall. hard to tell from replays but any real shoulder injury could mean he misses one or two
It didn't look like a shoulder injury to me, I thought he was caught in the head by Hart's boot. But then again I'm no health professional
I guess I've no idea then. I thought his shoulder was mentioned earlier
yes, my sentiments exactly....
reports say shoulder but he didnt seem too affected during the game
Welbeck, Di Maria and Sigurdsson > Costa, Sanchez and Eriksen (-4).
Now there's a tasty looking hit. Hmm...Looks good. But not the ADM out part.
I know... Got to drop someone if I'm going to get Sanchez though...
Why not? United arent exactly looking good, and their fixtures toughen significantly.
In what world is mci CPL HUL ars STK tough fixtures for an attacking midfielder?
Its mci CPL ars for the next three, which are pretty bad. Not to say that he cant perform, its just not very appealing at this moment in time, imo anyway.
id do it
id avoid erikson.
Maybe punt for oscar or save and get chadliFair enough. Will wait and see how Spurs play tomorrow.
How does Downing as a fourth midfielder sound?
unconvincing,hes my 5th
Comment removed. Please refer to our terms and conditions on posting comments.
Sorry for the stupid comment or the rubbishing of his idea?
the latter.
Ye have to show us the comment.
cant bet teasing us with.. this comment was inappropriate!😆 in fairness the comment was there when I said it.
Best off leaving it I think, sure he didn't mean it to be harmful.
i flagged it
there was a view given that a decision on a choice of a defender in a fantasy football game was related to a learning disability
that's not really necessary
dont like this commnet
Super. Might just join you.
damn have i missed some action
I missed it too?!
apologies man. trying to rhyme with downing but failed.
All good. Just have to be a bit sensitive with these things.
People ditching ADM for Sanchez are mad IMO, could backfire easily with his fixtures and form
Could backfire, but you're swapping an assist master for a big goal threat imo.
Di Maria's goal threat is a lot better at United than it was at Madrid.
Hmm, that may well be the case actually. Still, 8 goals and 4 assists in 13 starts for Sanchez, Burnley at home up next...
Yep, that's why I am buying him 😉
Just not for ADM.
i'm thinking getting adm but those fixtures are putting me off. no arsenal or mu cover.
This is the debate I want to see.
0.4m it costs to make the switch.
Exactly what I have.
Better fixtures for Arsenal and Alexis will be involved in most goals.Uhm. United`s fixtures are horrendous? And the fact that his goal threat is higher now than at Real doesnt really mean much, hes the only danger man at United, whereas in Real he never really looked all that dangeous in that aspect.
"It doesn't mean much" - err...yes it does? People citing his Madrid goal tally for justification that he doesn't have much goal threat where you just said yourself that he's more likely to score at United.
He has CPL HUL STK in the next 5, and games against Arsenal and Man City who are defending terribly at the moment. Horrendous? lol.When you consider that the majority of his points at this point have come by fluke (never mind that hes been the best player on the pitch in most of his games), when the fixtures toughen up its not really that appealing. Fact of the matter is that hes just not really all that big of a goal threat. His finishing isnt all that consistent. Only reason i think hes more likely to score at United rather than Real is cus he was surrounded by better players making better runs, whereas in United hes pretty much on his own at this point.
Stop presenting your opinion as facts. Youre looking pretty obnoxious at this point.
How is he the only danger man?
How is he not? Who else?
They have lots of attacking players - it's the defense that's suspect.
Quantity is not the issue. Its the quality. Nobody besides ADM has performed well this season for United, offensively.
So much for not doing Sterling--->Sanchez(-4) 🙄
not worth it.
I might do it for free this week if I end up with not much else to do.
Same....disaster of a GW so far.
Not really, everyone is in the same boat I think. Just a low scoring GW.
🙂 give him the handband too 😉
👿 Nice one. He would've been my captain choice if I had him, shame I didn't have the cojones to go for Lukaku over Aguero.
what did kun do? missed the game second half.
stamped next to nobles head, referee missed it but the FA may take action against him.
sorry not near his head, just near him
yikes. might get costa if anything. cheers.
Money irrelevant who should I ditch for Costa, Welbeck or Berahino?
Berahino is on fire but these sorts of runs rarely last at mid-table teams. Welbeck as only scored 2 goals in the league but has slghtly easier games and Arsenal are the bigger treat to smash teams by 3 or 4.*Threat
Howard, Gilks
Chambers, Cahill, Clyne, Wisdom, Naylor
ADM, Sigurdsson, Sterling, Marney, Mané
Costa, Welbeck, Aguero
0.4m, 1ft
What would you do?
Incidentally switching Sanchez in for ADM costs 0.4m right now..Courtois, Di Maria, Sterling -> LLoris, Hazard, Sanchez (-8)

Thanks a ton!https://vine.co/v/OhtnYiBB3pg
here the aguero incident, the sun and other papers have all picked up on itno way he will get a ban
Nothing will happen there's not enough evidence to show deliberate spite or intention to cause harm imo
If the referee has seen it, there can be no retrospective ban. He was right on top of it though, but I suppose there's a slim chance he managed to miss it.
he didnt see it apparently, and technically its a sending off offence
technically there is no evidence of any action that warrants a ban
Nothing to see there.
Intent is not clear.
The ball was there for the taking.
Be different if it was a stamp or hit with the ball nowhere to be seen..There was no intent to go for the ball at all
Meh
there's no context here
on mtch highlights ref waves play on and plater jumps up when there is no response
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2014/10/16/budget-alternatives/
Budget alternative Sadio Mane strikes again 🙂
Silva too.
Shush 😉 It'll pan out well in the long run!
Tadic is still well ahead anyway.
For now...Mane hasn't had as many minutes, will have 'em now, and he will go ahead. His goals will outscore Tadic's assists.
Ah yeah
yea. can't have more than three
Argh. Uber benching dilemma left Silva's 10 points on the bench.
sorry mate. I try to avoid that headache..
How you could ever bench Silva is beyond me. No offence but its just dumb benching 10m players.
Is Siggy really that much of a priority to ship? Let's take a look at his blanks:
GW4 - Chelsea - wasn't expected to do anything against the title favorites.
GW5 - Southampton - reduced to 10 men.
GW6 - Sunderland - reduced to 10 men.
6W8 - Stoke - should've scored but tried to take on the keeper.
At 6.8 - he's still 2nd in the points total for midfielders. Swansea are starting to look good and everything goes through him.And the 3 defences he's coming up against seem to be overrated on here.
He isnt worth selling, there no other player for that price that will consistantly gather points.
A few tough games, but so whatBarkley maybe
It's one o'clock again in the UK folks, use that extra hour wisely...
Reply fail, that makes no sense here...
Why did he come off early?
Groin
He's still great value, and it's just three tough fixtures, agreed. It's a good opportunity to catch a jump though, as his ownership is so high, and Swansea are likely to find the next few games difficult.
people here might sell him , but not many casuals will, they will just see he second among mids
welbeck will surely start again? what do you think gunners?
Top 10K (prior to this GW - can't imagine much movement though)
- 86% of captains played
- Average of just over 3 players to play.
Bodes well.12 players total so 4.4 left.
Does it count it like that? Boo
Yeah. Says on the site.
6 left but Duff and Krul hardly count.
Yeah there isn't going to be much movement in the ranks this week.
Captain played but have 5 players to play
62% of top 10K have also played their wildcards which also bodes well for those who still have it
36 points and a green arrow???I did not expect this...
Only counts at end of GW 😉
still 5 players left so... 😉
Is it about 45 mins till prices go up?
Yep. Bottled the WC again, would have had Sanchez and Mane on it...
Yep, although I wonder if daylight saving will have an affect. In which case it will be a further 1 hour more.
Oh yeah, clocks have just gone back as well as we speak. Thanks Ryan.
Lol. Your reply came 1 hour before my post. You don't see that every day
If forgotten they were changing. 😀
I'd
So silva out for alexis for free? Silva might troll me next week.
Likely Risers/Fallers?
Pelle to rise

Skrtel
Distin
Baird
Diego Costa 0
Zabaletareply fail
