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.

Gameweek 11

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    11 years, 4 months ago

    Hazard to Tadic, Pelle to Costa??

    1. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I'm transferring Tadic out. He's not returning points

    2. t3mme
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Nope

    3. Charlie&TheLads
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      OK, how about Hazard to Downing, Berahino to Costa?

  2. JK - Cønt ⭐
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Ok so Berahino has che, ARS next 2, but I think he stays, still got some nice fixtures bar that Chelsea one and I have a Tomkins sized hole in my defence

    1. Demí
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Do you have much £ tied up in him?

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        who Tomkins or Saido?

        got Saido at 5,6 so yeah, a fair bit

  3. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    I'm gonna need to sell one of those heavyweights this week to get Costa. What order would you sell in?

    A. Baines
    B. Di Maria
    C. Sanchez
    D. Hazard

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      B D A C

      1. Get up ya bum
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        this

        1. Get up ya bum
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          haz/adm is close

          1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            Baines untouchable at the moment you reckon?

        2. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Hmmm. This is kinda where i'm at. Although i'm loathed to sell ADM with that double home fixture coming up.

          However he doesn't take pens at least 🙂

      2. John Nerdelbaum
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Seconded

      3. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Agree with Berb here.

      4. NATSTER
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        +1 with B D A C

    2. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      C D B A

    3. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      D. Hazard has scored 2 penalties and 1 deflected goal from open play. cant understand the wagon for him
      A
      B
      C

      1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        It's not a wagon when someone has 400 odd points in the last 2 seasons

        1. Flycroft
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          he isn't even close to delivering for his price at the moment though. the past 2 seasons are largely irrelevant to this one in my opinion.

          he does of course have the capacity to make me eat my words but at the moment i prefer the other 3

          1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            Beside the point. Players in Hazard's bracket can never be classed as 'Bandwagons'. They are always owned by 20%+ of the game in any given week

            1. Flycroft
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              excuse my misuse of terminology then. i don't get the love for hazard at the moment.

              is that better? no need to be so pedantic, i was answering your question

              1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 4 months ago

                Ooops sorry 🙁

    4. Cars and Mané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Hazard

    5. KunBaYaya My Lord
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      D,B,C-A

    6. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      DCBA

      1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Leave it out. I shouldn't have even put Sanchez on the list

        1. Not Irish
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          I don't know why you'd sell any of those save Hazard.

          1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            To get Costa... it says at the top

            1. Not Irish
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              But you get my point then don't you.

              1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
                • 16 Years
                11 years, 4 months ago

                So just leave Costa then is your advice?

                1. Not Irish
                  • 12 Years
                  11 years, 4 months ago

                  No way I'd own him and Hazard. And I would probably opt for Hazard between the two considering his explosiveness and penos so yes.

  4. afazeli85
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Will Aguero price rise tonight?

    1. mbrucie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yes. As will Tadic and Chambers.

  5. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Who would u choose for upcoming gameweeks?

    Sakho, Austin or Berahino?

    1. CunkOnFPL
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Sakho

  6. Woy of the Wovers
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    People are selling Tadic?!!

    1. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Can't find better for that price, so I will keep him little more.

    2. Whazza
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      he is rising tonight

    3. Concrete
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      To fund Costa, yes

  7. Valar(Keith)
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Played WC last week and bought 'Adm in and he's already headed for a fall 🙁

    1. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      patience

  8. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    sorry
    mass exodus of southampton players will fail

    1. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      na,they wont keep 2nd place pace up

    2. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      There's no chance they won't fade away at some point in the season and this horrendous run is as likely to be the start of it as any other time.

  9. Les Bleus
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    People picking budget strikers can only end in tears.

    Naismith, Ulloa, Berahino. Do people not learn?

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Oh and Bojan of course.

    2. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Berahino is quality. As I Sakho. As is Austin.

      Don't be scared.

    3. Charlie&TheLads
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      How is Berahino a fail?

      1. Konig Luther
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        or how Naismith was?

        1. Konig Luther
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          *order

      2. Sif
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Boy done good but he won't get that many pens rest of the season.

        1. Not Irish
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Yeah, he will.

    4. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Now probably Sakho will go off the boil and then Austin.

      You have to catch their hot streak which is difficult.

    5. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      lol

    6. Snikii
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      its a perfectly good strategy if you can think clearly and drop them at the right time

  10. Not Irish
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Sanchez AdM Fabregas Siggy Boyd

    The new template

    1. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Meh

      So last week.

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Nah will be the top four scoring mids come tomorrow.

        If it's not the template it should be.

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      *Sanchez Adm Oscar Downing Boyd

      1. BRONALDINHO
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        In a week you'll be frenetically looking for a way to ship downing

        1. BRONALDINHO
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          gameweek*

          1. mbrucie
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            If it wasn't for Guzan, Downing would have had 3 assists and everyone would be all over him...

            1. BRONALDINHO
              • 11 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              yet in fantasy terms, today Guzan brought me 7 points and everyone who moved for Downing got 3

  11. pundit of punts
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Hands up if you still have your WC.

    What's the plan?

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

  12. Nabs Kebabs
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    so wheres everyone laughing at me buying austin as part of a hit to fund sanchez?

    😎

    1. JK - Cønt ⭐
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      not me, I like Austin

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Genius. 😉

    3. Woy of the Wovers
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Lol. -4pts.

    4. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I quite liked the move if you recall correctly. 😎

    5. pundit of punts
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      What were your transfers?

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        sterling, welbz. siggy to sanchez, austin, downing (-4)

        1. pundit of punts
          • 13 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          I'd recommend you to not be smug untill tomorrow then. 😀

    6. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Danny Pele hatrick would make all this a bit premature...

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        😡

  13. Gubbins94.
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Any chance of Austin getting the assist?

    1. Keno
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      no

  14. JK - Cønt ⭐
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Valar around?

    1. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yup

      1. JK - Cønt ⭐
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        been considering what to do in regards to Tomkins

        I've narrowed it down to keeping the Hammers rotation with Reid, or possibly going QPR

        Guess where that led me 😆

        In fairness I'm tempted to downgrade Tomkins to Yun as it leaves enough to do Clyne to Baines in GW13

        1. Flycroft
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          eject from west ham imo. stats aren't good. not buying into the QPR defence though

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      if you are gonna ask about my WC.. well i already wish i dint play hit. what a waste in hindsight. Wanted to make some cash and get Adm and 2 west ham attackers in. Gotta live with it now 🙂

  15. Flicks A Foden
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Shameless repost...wondering if this team is worth a wildcard. Kind of excited about it but was hoping someone could tell me if I'm being dumb.

    WC Team

    Guzan--Foster
    Wisdom--Chambers--Naylor--Saylor--Duff
    Fab--Downing--Sanchez--ADM--Boyd
    Aguero--Rooney--Bony

    Not perfect for next week but excellent for the forhtcoming weeks

    Heres what I'm on now:

    Myhill--Foster
    -Baines--Bertrand--Chambers--Wisdom--Moore
    Fab--Mane--ADM--Hazard--Boyd
    Aguero--Welbz--Pelle

    Would appreciate any input.

    Other options is Costa/Kane for Rooney and Bony, Downing to Stelring.

    1. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      you only really need to get rid of mane and welbeck, rest of team is decent.

      not a fan of the WC team

    2. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      not convinced your WC is markedly better, maybe save it until its legit needed?

    3. Andreu Lacondeguy
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Definitely not worth a wildcard, dont get rid of baines!

      1. Flicks A Foden
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks!

    4. Whistle
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I think i prefer your current team.

      Love the Bony shout but you are a week early.

  16. Mohit20
    • 11 Years

    41 with 6 to play will give me a green or a red arrow??

    1. Flycroft
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      just checking my crystal ball

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

    2. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      red and probably expulsion from all leagues

    3. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

    1. TorresMagic™

      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      46k out today. Sometime this week probably.

  18. Get up ya bum
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    for now i wouldn't. Good value to be had in some of the cheaper mids too.

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      sigh. Follow the breadcrumbs if you wanna converse with me superdunny 🙂 i am pre smart phoning it

  19. SW6
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Any Siggy owners quietly optimistic for tomorrow, I can feel a goal coming.

    1. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yup. Sellers will pay.

    2. daveoafc77
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      wouldnt be surprising but more likely a 2

    3. #23
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I hope so to stagger the sales...i need to get rid of him i think, he is not performing as well as i hoped

    4. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yes. Patience will win.

    5. Sol
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      He can't make them any worse at least.

    Thinking of ADM to Chadli to allow Berahino to Costa?

    Tried having a budget striker for the past few weeks and prefer the budget(sort of) mids.

    1. enrico.palazzo
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Chadli a great option so could work.

      Budget mids better than budget forwards couldn't agree more

      Siggy and Chadli has worked v well for me allowing Kun, pelle and costa up front

  22. Kip

    safe to assume Austin will probably rise by 0.2 over the next 2 weeks?

    1. BRONALDINHO
      • 11 Years

      at least

  23. applebonkers

    since welbeck joined arsenal:
    welbeck 28
    costa 22

    one is essential the other we can't wait to get rid of

    1. applebonkers

      ignore this, it's actually 39, 30

      1. Nabs Kebabs

      Costa missed 2 easy games.

      You've gotta take that into consideration.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Actually costa got 39 points despite not playing 2 games.

        Reason enough for him to be essential.

    6. slurzy
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Costa got 17 points the same day Welbeck played his league debut...

      Your numbers are off, and you failed to include the fact Costa played 2 less games through injury.

      1. Fitzy.
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Welbeck hasn't played this week and Costa has, so it's only 1 game less.

      2. applebonkers
        • Has Moderation Rights

        1 less game. come on man, sort out your numbers

        1. Rats Ass
          • 16 Years

          One fewer game. Come on man, sort out your grammar.

            Grammarians would prefer one game fewer.

    Glad I held Sterling now.

    They have some tasty fixtures and Sturridge will be back after Int Break.

    1. Davido989

      kind of regret selling him, he'll go back in the 10 behind studge

      1. daveoafc77

        i regret not selling him earlier

        They will return to the 442 diamond which looked good early season against Spurs.

        -----------Gerrard----------------

        ------Can------Henderson------

        -----------Sterling-----------------

        ----Sturridge------Balotteli------

        This would be so much better with a real holding midfielder.

        1. Not Irish
          • 12 Years

          If Studge could be relied upon to get fit and stay fit.

      Lots of people buying him.

    2. Whazza
      • 13 Years

      He must have had enough buyers for a price rise.

    3. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Because he scored 18 last week?

    4. Flycroft
      • 15 Years

      he is a cheap route into the arsenal defence and just bagged a goal, assist and CS

    Brief analysis of Austin vs Sakho:

    COMPARISON TOOL:
    On the surface of it, a H2H comparison suggests that Sakho is the obvious choice with most of the KPI's and overall % in his favour, but on closer inspection most of the KPI's are very close, only narrowly won by Sakho. When one selects only the last 4 matches it becomes a very even contest, and Austin actuals wins 6-3 on the important KPI's.

    WHOSCORED STATS:
    Austin has had the 5th highest shots per game in the league too (Sakho is narrowly behind him) so its hardly an accident that he's scored as many as he has. Sakho has better overall performance (7.48 to 7.03).

    FIXTURES:
    Very similar fixtures don't settle who I should choose:
    QPR fixtures: new LEI swa BUR
    WHM fixtures: eve NEW wba SWA sun eve

    SQUAD CONSIDERATIONS:
    Normally I don't care about "coverage", but I do try to avoid clashes between FWD-DEF. As such, owning Baines makes it a conflict of interest to transfer Sakho in this GW. I also already own Downing, and am not overly keen on exposing myself to West Ham too much, and having players from different teams allows better fixture-matching/rotation. If injuries happen or form goes south I don't want to be stuck with too many from a team that is normally not reliable. All of which tip the scales Austin's way somewhat in this regard.

    PRICE RISES:
    Sakho just rose to 5.9 last night and is unlikely to rise again in the next few days. Sakho just blanked so immediate transfer activity might be sluggish as well. As far as I'm aware Austin has been transferred in more often than Sakho today, so going into the International Break has more "momentum" and probably stands a better chance of multiple rises than Sakho. Austin is at 59% on fplstats which is a healthy number close to a rise (around 18,000 buys away apparently), but still allows a day or two to consider the form of your potentially outgoing striker (who in my case is Welbeck).

    Unless Welbeck tears it up tomorrow its looking very likely that Welbeck>Austin will be my lone transfer this GW, as I save the 2nd of my 2FT's for the Saints-exodus or Fab/Pelle yellow card issues in GW13.

      • 16 Years

      Nice. Maybe i'll just get Austin too and roll over the 2 frees

    2. rickardinho
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Sorry, fixtures are:
      QPR fixtures: new LEI swa BUR eve
      WHM fixtures: eve NEW wba SWA sun

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 13 Years

        Those couple home games for QPR look tempting

          Yes exactly, very promising indeed!

      BTW you missed out another important bit. Austin is on PENS!!!!!

      1. rickardinho
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Ah yes ofcourse, I was meaning to mention that the pens "balance" any slight statistical advantage sakho has in some areas! Thanks for adding that!

    5. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Yep, have Downing as well and it's pushing me towards Austin. Spread the risk.

      Plus, as you say, Austin is more likely to be transferred in this week so might as well make something off what is essentially a 50/50 call.

      1. rickardinho
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah exactly. West Ham aren't one of the teams you want to be stocking up on imo, and Cresswell might be the only good option as a Clyne/Bertrand replacement too so that should factor in somewhat. I don't think anyone wants 3 WHM players!
