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.
Unfortunately, this lesson is a little late for me.... but I'm willing to share!! 😀
Diego Costa. I got him in last week, petrified of not having (C)osta. IMO, he isn't a scary scorer.. he's just super consistent. So far, in 10 GWs, there have only been two scores more than 6.
With so many other options about, and the consistent worrying about Costa, is it possible not to own him?
If you ask me, yes.... IF you can find a captain to compete against the big ownership who (c) him with an easy fixture (e.g. Alexis this week).
And the answer is.... YES! 😀 (with Aguero, Alexis and ADM.. here's how.......)
Costa's fixtures until the end of January:
liv - Aguero (qpr) and Di Maria (CPL)
WBA - Aguero (SWA)
sun - Di Maria (HUL) and Alexis (wba)
TOT - Di Maria (STO)
new - Alexis (sto)
HUL - Alexis (NEW) and Aguero (lei)
sto - Aguero (CPL) and Di Maria (avl)
WHM - Alexis (QPR), Aguero (wba) and Di Maria (NEW)
sot - Aguero (BUR)
tot - Aguero (SUN)
NEW - Alexis (STO)
swa - Di Maria (qpr)
MCI - Alexis (AVL) and Di Maria (LEI)
tl;dr... don't want Costa? Get Alexis, ADM and Aguero.
Aguero every week
get all 4 🙂
^This!^
havent had him all season and he's not scary at all. he doesn't pepper the goal every 10mins like suarez, di maria etc. he's not on pens, he's not getting assists, he's 100% nailed when fit but is clearly struggling a bit muscle wise since the end of his atletico spell. it's literally the swansea game which turned this site into a bunch of accidental scare-mongering bullies.
just to clarify costa would have been scary for QPR if he didnt have the injury lay-off. he was back to square-one, no form, an unknown level of fitness and no different to any of the other very decent attacking options this gw imo. for example i don't see why he was any scarier than pelle, berahino, aguero etc
I have Alexis, ADM, Aguero and Costa. What then?
Nice post. I was just wondering whether to bring Costa in this week or not.
pissed about the chambers monster haul but i guess his assist got sanchez a goal and his goal got welbeck an assist
He should have scored against sunderland. Getting his deserved goal one week late
Why are you pissed about it?
if he just gets a clean sheet or even just an assist then i'm sitting on top this week, now it's etiehr sharing the limelight or sitting behind some people
Ridiculous score.
also that i would have him if he didnt get suspended, but he got put a couple of places down the to-do list as a result of the 5th yellow
Oh okay that's fair enough. Thought you may have been begrudging how he scored the points for some reason.
not at all. 18 is a ludicrous score though
Yeah, for sure. Once a season kind of thing. Like Tadic v Sunderland
the goal is no fluke i don't think though. was keeping track of him pre-season and he was dangerous on set-pieces, think in one game he scored and hit the woodwork
Really? That's encouraging then. I did Gibbs > Chambers this week, so do feel a bit fortunate
yep was harsh for non chambers owners
wtf
He's in the scout picks...
Average Update:
• Expected overall average is 42 points (maybe 43) (+8.4 points today).
• Average score in the top 10K is 61.3(-0.8) points (+8.5 points today) with 0.4 players left to play or to be subbed in.
• Expect a rise in rank if you scored 9 or more points from today's games.
• Team have an average of 1.4 players remaining, 0.4 players remaining in the top 10k
Cheeky
😉
Nice update
Pre baps?
Post BAPS
Good stuff , thanks
I'm expecting one tomorrow with Zaha 😎
Rise that is, not one point (which is more likely)
Average Update:
• Expected overall average is 42 points (maybe 43) (+8.4 points today).
• Average score in the top 10K is 61.3(-0.8) points (+8.5 points today) with 0.4 players left to play or to be subbed in.

Best move pls? thnx..
1.FT Haz>Sanchez
2.FT Welbek>Pelle
3.FT Dcosta>Pelle (allows to upgrade FT Haz>sanchez gw11 and FT Chadli>Walcott gw12)
4. (-8) Haz>Sanchez ; Welbek>Pelle ; Chadli>Moses (4thMid)
* option 4 i like a lot, Have not taken any hits so far. cost me sanchez that. not sure if too much.
team: adm - haz - downing - chad - *obertan
welbeck - dcosta - aguero
I know Soto have got tough fixtures in a month but long term would you rather go with Lloris & N Taylor to:
A. Forster & Alderweireld
Or
B. Foster (West Brom) & Clyne
Krul is my other keeper.
Ta muchlyb
foster or guzan u prefer
Boring transfer advice needed:
Hutton & Alcaraz to....(any toffee fans know the latest on him?)
£9m to spend. have Duff and Chambers already??Alderweireld & Dummett?
Have 3 saints players already, have Krul/ Foster in goal
Maybe Tomkins instead then, presuming he has his place back now
Hutton: will he be back for gw11 as starter or will lowton secure the starting spot now?
*if notbak for gw11, when is he expected bac? thxHave no idea, anyone else know?
Lowton has been poor imo.
Difficult to say. Lowton has been average in the last 2 games. Hutton was average before his injury.
Oscar anyone? or is there still a doubt he'll be dropped in some away games(like vs Pool next week)?
I like oscar, his price is friendly
Still a small doubt i think, but he's made himself more nailed after yesterday. Mourinho was full of praise for what he adds to the team, not just his goal
Matic and Fabregas are basically nailed so he will always be a rotation risk with a player of Ramires's quality on the bench
Unlikely to be dropped as he was before. Good little gamble.
Tempted to pick him up for Raheem if I don't go down the Sanchez route.
Would mean 3 Chelski but not too bad with liv, WBA, sun coming up
Wow Doosra that table........
The difference between corners and succesfull corners checking Tadic and then AdM and Baines.Or Fabregas.
2 FTs
ADM > Sanzchez
Siggy > Downing
Yay/Nay?
don't sell adm
Just Siggy to Downing, except if you care for money more than you do for points.
nay
dropped 6k to 11k yesterday and had aguero and adm today.. another red arrow incoming?
Really need Mannone to start this next one then I'll ditch him.
Hope he's dropped so I can get Krul's 8 points
Was Eriksen subbed because he was playing poorly, had a knock, for tactical reasons or worries about getting a 2nd yellow?
Chances of him starting next GW?
he will start nxt week
Does anyone have a link to the price rise/fall site?
which one?
fpl statistics is okay.
I have google if that helps?
Imagine how much of a bad drunk Graham Souness must be
He's a tw@t, never met him though so it's just my opinion on his football punditry 😉
Thats fine, celebs are there for us to judge
Graeme
Hope he isn't drunk when he reads this
Really wanna sneak Hazard in before he rises further.
Easiest way is Tadic out.
But then no Saints cover and already have Costa.
Heeeelphard to help without knowing your team
Essential players maybe lads?
Baines
Adm
Sanchez
Fabs
Ageuro
Costa
Pelle
Feel free to amend with your thoughts lads...ADM isn't essential until a United striker hits form imo. Assist potential won't be realised otherwise
Carrick was good when he came on dont you think? Better than Blind imo.
Carrick was in defence though and not really tested too much. If City hadn't dropped off it might have been different.
Not sure how its going to work with Blind/Carrick/Fellaini/Herrera to be honest.
There is no essential players
Dont think there are any essentials, costa and aguero coming closest imo. I wouldnt wanna go without adm as well
Austin is outscoring 2 of those front 3 on recent form.
Only 3 real essential players , but that is in my opinion ( each to his own ) Baines , Sanchez and Aguero
Essential may be overplaying it but they are the group of players I aspire to transition into my squad! (With the exception of Pelle)
Havent put in the research this year and am paying the price badly, i decided to not take it seriously this year so havent been studying the stats, i regret it. It sucks doing shit
Two weeks have ruined your current rank, you were doing alright before that.
Yeah true, im not complaing its my own fault. The last two years i did so well cus i spent so much time on it, im just saying i havent this year and it has made a massive difference
For a few weeks really stopped caring going all crazy with captain choices. Adebayor cisse pelle when he wasn't owned too highly. Didn't go down as much I had hoped so back to playing seriously 🙂
I love this game, and i love chatting on here, but i have wasted too much time on it - final year of my degree this year so have deliberately cut down, i have also been a little unlucky i think!
Why did you hope to go down?
5 reds in 6, but I have studied the stats 😀
I spend too much time ruminating on options. Need to focus more on work! Have just deleted my Sky icon as the game is rubbish so at least my focus on fantasy footy should reduce to just FPL.
Anyone got chambers the week before hull while he was suspended?
Gw8? Yea
Knew I wanted him and had 2FTs with nothing else to use them on.
Used my 2FTs to get Downing and Sanchez for Eriksen and Sterling. What should I do about Welbeck?? Leave for one week, bench or take a hit (also have Lukaku)
Leave for a week. He's in and around the danger area. No point losing anything on him.
GW ranks: https://fpldiscovery.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/gw10ranks2.jpg
(From FPL discovery)
Fabregas + Tomkins + Wilson -> Sanchez + Chambers + Saylor
Nay or yay?Nay. Just the last two. Unless you have another way of getting Sanchez in.
hazard is such a wnaker
BAPS oot.
So ... I can't see any beneficial move this week. Would like to build up to two frees.
Please look and tell me if I am being foolish?
GW 11:
Fabianski
Chambers, Clyne, Baines
Sánchez, di Maria, Downing, Tadic
Agüero(C), Berahino, Pellè(VC)
Begovic; Sigurdsson, Dummett, N Taylor ... FT, 0.4 ITB
I wouldn't think twice about saving the xfer. Good to go
Ooo! Thanks! 🙂
Looks good to me.
Cheers, SW6! 🙂
Looks great, just hold. Although maybe Pelle is a better captain choice against the mighty foxes
😯 😆
Looks good. Save FT IMO
Thank you! 🙂
Definite save
Ta, mate. 🙂
Begovic > Krul
He's not worth the extra 0.5m.I am definitely NOT doing that! 🙂
Yeah I know just saying in general though.
OK. Thanks for input. 🙂
Would defo save it with the break coming up. Looking set for next week
Cheers, Nate - much appreciated. 🙂
Bank that transfer!
I will - thanks! 😀
Looks excellent home boy
Cheers, Beric. 🙂
You're good.
Ta, Parm - more or less unanimous, then. Excellent!
Thanks to all! 😀
Yeah GTG and nice team.
Cheers, BabyB. 🙂
That's almost my team! Though I've already taken a -4 this week to get it.
Good to go.
Good.
Keep 2 frees will be useful when offloading Soton players.
46 all out.
How that is above average I have no idea.
Eriksen the nail in the gameweek coffin.Why is Chrome telling me 'alright' is not a word? 😕
ADM to Sanchez -4? Has to be done tonight as exact funds 😕
Nah
Not for a hit. ADM has some nice fixtures coming up.
No.
Wouldn't loose adm before good fixtures. None of them seem to rise/fall tonight.
Nope
Cheers gents. Will stick
why are ppl still asking this? ADM has palace at home.
krul guzan
clyne baines wisdom taylor rose
eriksen tadic fabregas haz siggy
pelle aguero sakho
0.3 itb and 1ft what should i do?Pelle or Aguero (c)?
aguero
