    Looks like I'll be doing Sterling & Welbeck to Alexis & Berahino tonight then, very tempted to throw in Di María to Hazard for a hit too.

    1. Beavis
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Although I like the transfers, Sterling and Welbz could both equally score well.

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Yeah, both with good fixtures but the two in bringing in are on much better form.

    2. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      12 years, 7 days ago

      I don't like it but best of luck!

      1. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Doesn't look like a good move on paper to be fair, but factoring in form I reckon it should pay off.

        1. djenzio
          12 years, 7 days ago

          Sterling will get points against the Toons

  2. Royal5
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Anyone else considering the Fabregas/Hazard double up? Hazard looks in form and could destroy QPR.

    1. MisterMaster
      12 years, 7 days ago

      hazard is always in form at the bridge

    2. Total Foot 5
      12 years, 7 days ago

      i was. was thingking cesc + oscar...u doing it?

      1. Royal5
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Looking at Sterling to Haz and downgrading Downing or Siggy

    3. rickardinho
      12 years, 7 days ago

      I'm considering fab Oscar pairing

      1. Royal5
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Is Oscar nailed by now? I feel he is a bit inconsistant

        1. rickardinho
          12 years, 7 days ago

          He is nailed for all games against bottom-14 sides, especially at home

          1. Royal5
            12 years, 7 days ago

            Could be a decent punt and pretty cheap.

  3. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Thinking of swapping ADM and Pelle out for Tadic and Aguero. Any thoughts? Feels a bit odd taking out solid performers but I would like Aguero

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      I think at this stage I would get mane over tadic. More goal threat. Tadic dies have pens/set pieces mind.

      1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
        12 years, 7 days ago

        interesting. if i do ADM to Mane i can upgrade welbeck to Aguero. Better front line i think, but leaves me with 3 southampton players

        1. djenzio
          12 years, 7 days ago

          nothing wrong with triple southampton. if i could i would have 4. have you watched them play lately??

    2. Captain Peacock
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Pelle has three good games coming up. It's a mistake to move him. Ditch another striker.

      1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
        12 years, 7 days ago

        yes ideally want to do welbeck > aguero but tough to find that money. Still have Costa (bit of a mistake this week!) so feel i've missed the boat on swapping him for Aguero, expect he'll be back soon and trying to fit in both. Thought Tadic could cover saints attack...

        1. Captain Peacock
          12 years, 7 days ago

          After 8-0, I don't think one Southampton attacker is enough given the upcoming opposition.

  4. rickardinho
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Are there any downsides to Siggy>Oscar apart from losing 0.4 of his rise-value (though that could be limited if his price falls)

    1. Total Foot 5
      12 years, 7 days ago

      mate, thinking of going w/ oscar...nut gametim sometimes an issue w him, no?

      would u go oscar + cesc? 2 ft

      1. rickardinho
        12 years, 7 days ago

        His gametime is predictable though. He's benched away against good sides but against easy teams he starts. It's tellingwhat Jose thinks of United as Oscar started at old Trafford :p qpr and wba should be great points outputs for him

    2. daveoafc77
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Tough next 3 but then I'd want Siggy back, so I'm sticking with in

      1. rickardinho
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Yeah Siggy has good fixtures after the next 3, but I think his price could drop to mitigate the losses somewhat. I have enough cash and tv to take a minor loss if it can get me more points short term if I want him back anyways

  5. Total Foot 5
    12 years, 7 days ago

    whats the educated guess for thse who will rise?
    seems clyne + berahino and maybe sancez no? anyone else ..feck needed 1 more day to make sure which way to go w/ 2ft.

  6. daveoafc77
    12 years, 7 days ago

    So many talking about shipping ADM with Palace, Hull and Stoke at home in the next 5. Hasty?

    1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      12 years, 7 days ago

      I'm gonna keep i think and ship Sterling and Siggy

      1. daveoafc77
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Planning on getting Siggy back after the next 3?

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          12 years, 7 days ago

          I'm really not sure. Kinda hoping Swans go on a bit of a slide i suppose because if they continue playing well and getting results Siggy will surely be at the centre of it. But Hazard and Sanchez are hard to resist this week and the thought of getting them BOTH in is mouthwatering 😀

    2. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      I think so. Going to keep myself.

      1. daveoafc77
        12 years, 7 days ago

        I think I will and hope that Sanchez has an unlucky few weeks before I plan to bring him in

    3. hurrrrr
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Well they've also got City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Southampton away in their next 7!

      At the end of the day there are so many great options in midfield this season, really hard to pick between them.

      1. daveoafc77
        12 years, 7 days ago

        The Arsenal game should provide him plenty of opportunities with the defence as it is so I'd say 4 good chances in the next 5

        1. chrisjdgrady
          12 years, 7 days ago

          Yep as an arsenal fan I fear him

        2. Sess!
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          12 years, 7 days ago

          ......and Liverpool

    4. chrisjdgrady
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Yep

  7. hurrrrr
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Coloccini + Di Maria -> Baines + Sanchez looks good right?

    1. NobodyF*cksWithTheJesus
      12 years, 7 days ago

      very

  8. Crash
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Will Sanchez rise tonight?

  9. A.T
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Is Sanchez or Ivan expected to rise tonight?

    1. Beavis
      12 years, 7 days ago

      No according to FFF/FPLStats.

    2. djenzio
      12 years, 7 days ago

      why would Ivan rise?

      1. Benteke10
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Lol

  10. kiwi_pool
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Foster Krul
    Clyne Baines Rose Wisdom PvA
    Siggy Fabs Sterling Tadic Boyd
    Welbeck Costa Aguero

    1 FT 0 ITB

    What would you do? I am keeping Costa. He is going to tear QPR apart.

  11. MisterMaster
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Transfers done

    Adrian

    Baines Moore Gibbs (BUR)

    Hazard(QPR) Fabs(QPR) Siggy Sanchez(BUR) Eriksen

    Costa(QPR) Welbeck(BUR)

    Subs:McCarthy,Naylor,Hutton,Barnes

    Looks like ill have a huge GW

  12. RSe
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Lost on bottom of page

    Moreno and Sterling > Baines and Haz for free? I would be doubling up with Fab but no Costa....

    1. MadridistaRants
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Looks good but you might want Sterling back in a couple of weeks time.

  13. Amateur Pundit Zan
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Early thoughts on captain this week? I'm struggling to see past aguero at etihad despite arsenal and Chelsea plum fixtures

    1. laGan1n1
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Hazard for me

    2. MadridistaRants
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Costa for me. Aguero VC

      1. djenzio
        12 years, 7 days ago

        same

  14. Sess!
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Is oscar a viable alternative to hazard?

    1. Beavis
      12 years, 7 days ago

      No

    2. MadridistaRants
      12 years, 7 days ago

      No. Too inconsistent imo

  15. Lallana_
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Never do early transfers usually but had to do this due to it being exact:

    Sterling>Sanchez
    Begovic>Guzan
    Duff>Dummet

    I understand Dummet might get dropped soon. Not a big issue to me.

  16. Don Look Back in Wenger
    12 years, 7 days ago

    downgrading Ivan gives me Siggy-> sanchez

    should i do it?

    and please suggest me the best 3.9 defender to get

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      That was going so well until the 3.9 def part 😆

      1. Don Look Back in Wenger
        12 years, 7 days ago

        aha ikr!

        but to think i have clyne baines moore and wisdom, a 3.9 wouldn hurt sitting on 3rd bench?

    2. John Obi Wan Mikel
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Bad transfer m8...

    3. harrysponge
      12 years, 7 days ago

      S.Taylor 😛

  17. Budweiser
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Naismith to Eto'o after that MOTM display? Naismiths been poor recently

  18. Koflok
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Will Siggy drop? Just enough cash to do

    Siggy -> Walcott.

    Mightily tempted.

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Too early for Walcott

    2. Captain Peacock
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Doubt Walcott will produce for a few weeks, needs to get settled back in.

    3. MadridistaRants
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Walcott will probably be getting 20 or 30 minutes at the end. Still being eased into action.

  19. Captain Peacock
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Mane or Tadic?

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Won't be much between them so mane as he's 0.8 cheaper.

      1. Captain Peacock
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Funds are not an issue for me.

        1. djenzio
          12 years, 7 days ago

          tadic then as he has pens/free kicks

    2. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Mane for flair and differential points! 😉

      PS: I have him so am incredibly bias

      1. Captain Peacock
        12 years, 7 days ago

        The funny thing is that both my mini league rivals have Mane but not Tadic lol. But the underlying stats are brilliant, that's for sure.

    3. harrysponge
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Mane

  20. alexhcheng10
    12 years, 7 days ago

    front three of Berahino, Welbeck, pelle for a week. madness?

    not having costa or aguero is to accommodate for a midfield of hazard Sanchez adm and fab

    1. Captain Peacock
      12 years, 7 days ago

      It is madness when the two titans are playing crap defences.

      1. alexhcheng10
        12 years, 7 days ago

        costa might not even play

        1. Captain Peacock
          12 years, 7 days ago

          Which is why I don't have him. But Kun will be my captain. I predict big points.

  21. Lallana_
    12 years, 7 days ago

    My team looks beautiful now:

    Guzan
    Baines Clyne Wisdom
    Sanchez (v) Di Maria Fabregas Sigurdsson
    Welbeck Aguero (C) Pelle

    Bench: Gilks, Dummet, Moore, Marney

  22. the cromulent one
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Thinking about the two bonus for both Fabregas and Baines... I believe that taking all the corners for their team is really helping. A corner would count as a cross for the BPS, would it not? That is like a free 5 extra BPS points per match... Definitely makes a difference.

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      They both make a lot of touches and complete a lot of passes too.

  23. Not Irish
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Find it hilarious that so many are acting like Arsenal coverage and particularly Sanchez is vital because Sunderland kicked a couple of sitters to him.

    1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      12 years, 7 days ago

      It has NOTHING to do with that. It's because they are playing Burnley... and Burnley are toilet

      4-0 minimum

      1. Not Irish
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Yeah right. So you're telling me there would be the same reaction had Sunderland not gone off the boil?

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          12 years, 7 days ago

          From everyone else? I've no idea. From me yeah absolutely. It's a fairly decent tactic to just see who Burnley are playing most and grab an opposition player.

          Who else was a viable target from Arsenal, even without the 2 goals yesterday. Sure it's sped up the process of Sanchez rising but me getting an Arsenal player has absolutely nothing to do with Sunderland's f uck ups

          1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
            12 years, 7 days ago

            most weeks*

            1. Not Irish
              12 years, 7 days ago

              But if Sunderland doesn't feck up Arsenal don't score. Why do you think they'll be any better against Burnley? Sunderland have been much worse.

              1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
                12 years, 7 days ago

                Well the most obvious thing to point out seems to be that Arsenal will be playing at the Emirates next Saturday

      2. John Obi Wan Mikel
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Arsenal have been hopeless recently, not a hop will it be 4-0

        1. John Obi Wan Mikel
          12 years, 7 days ago

          *hope

    2. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      More because they play Burnley (the worst team in the league) at home next.

    3. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      He's still a great option regardless, seems to be the one to push Arsenal over the line even when they're not playing well(Hull).

    4. Lallana_
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Sanchez is a quality player. Price tag is high for me but at the same time, he's on fire.

    5. Amateur Pundit Zan
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Don't believe in coverage but it's clear to see that Sanchez form is building and he is becoming key to arsenal. Stats back this up. I had him well in my sites last week, wish I pulled the trigger but decided to give siggy another week whilst I assessed Sanchez v hazard

    6. Beavis
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Can you not afford Sanchez then? 😉

      Seriously though it's cause it's BUR (H), one of the tastiest fixtures of the season

      1. Not Irish
        12 years, 7 days ago

        I can afford to upgrade my fourth mid to him so that's not it at all.

    7. The Shadow
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Has more to do with a midfielder being far forward enough to have those sitters gifted to him.

    8. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      I'd sooner wait until Walcott is back and fit. Value for 9m as opposed to overpaying for Sanchez now.

      1. Not Irish
        12 years, 7 days ago

        That or wait for Ramsey to get revved up. I don't see any as value though.

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          12 years, 7 days ago

          Value has it's place in fantasy football ofc. It enables you to maximise your squads points potential, but sometimes you have to pay the money for the top players. Sanchez is a world class player and he will be up against a bunch of cloggers next weekend. Arsenal will create a bucket load of chances and Sanchez will probably return a double figure FPL points haul

          1. Not Irish
            12 years, 7 days ago

            Arsenal could well go into a shell if Burnley show up and get stuck in.

            1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
              12 years, 7 days ago

              Mate.... it's a game of opinions as they say. Let's see what next weekend brings

              1. Not Irish
                12 years, 7 days ago

                Cheerio.

            2. djenzio
              12 years, 7 days ago

              that is a massive if.

    9. djenzio
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Sanchez looked good today. his movement is very good. he did get gifted 2 goals, but to be fair not every player would have scored that first one. welbeck, for example, would have missed.

  24. Cookie Thumper
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Back up to 516 th overall after what I thought was a rubbish week. Just cruising along, making steady moves. No punts and no panic transfers.

    1. Sess!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Great skills. Wise strategy too. I was playing it cool,too until southampton game last week.

    2. RSe
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Similar. Yet to take a hit. Whats your team?

  25. Mario Italiano
    12 years, 7 days ago

    whats the situation with costa people? anyone care to explain...shall i transfer out or leave for qpr?

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      If you still have him you might as well keep him.

    2. kiwi_pool
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Keep.

    3. the cromulent one
      12 years, 7 days ago

      No one really knows. If I had to guess, I'd say he'll be fit for QPR.

  26. Lallana_
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Hopefully Sigurdsson ends up staying fit. Great points per cost.

  27. Total Foot 5
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Have 2FT. Best Move pls advice: Thnx!

    1. 2FT Sterling + Sigur > Cesc + Oscar + (.1itb)
    2. 2FT Sterling + Sigur > Sanchez + Chadli + (1.4itb)

    rest of front : adm - downing - dc - aguero - pelle

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 7 days ago

      2

      1. Total Foot 5
        12 years, 7 days ago

        cheers. u think oscar + cesc too much? they could run riot ag qpr. and if dc doesnt play.

    2. Total Foot 5
      12 years, 7 days ago

      or option 3. 2FT Sterling + Sigur > Haz + Eriksen/orCazorla

  28. Lallana_
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Thought about dropping Di Maria but with Utd playing once a week and with him being their most likely to score points I decided not too.

  29. NABIL - FPL otai
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Welbeck or Berahino as Costa replacement?

    1. Lallana_
      12 years, 7 days ago

      Dat guy Welbz. Not the greatest striker but with decent fixtures and some of the best playmakers around him he can do damage.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Leaning towards him too. Thanks man

  30. Hyperion
    12 years, 7 days ago

    Narrowed it down to two...

    A) Siggy -> Boyd, Lovren -> Baines, Ulloa -> Berahino (-4)
    B) Costa -> Pelle/Welbz, Lovren -> Baines, Ulloa -> Berahino (-4)

    If A Boyd will be benched, if B Siggy will be benched.

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      12 years, 7 days ago

      A as long as Boyd is not your 4th mid

      1. Hyperion
        12 years, 7 days ago

        Thanks, Chadli is.
