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.

    Who’s the favourite?

    A) Siggy, Wisdom and 13 points
    B) Sanchez, Welbeck, Chadli and Chambers

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      A)

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      A

    3. mookie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      cheers

  2. Holmes

    How did Leicester play? Did they perform better than last few games?

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

      much more solid defensively, much more conservative. but still quite poor

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

        Any chance of Moore getting his starting place back?

  3. Pie-o-My
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Wildcard trigger pulled

    Krul Elliot
    Baines Clyne Chambers Wisdom Yun
    Sanchez Cesc Downing Siggy (maybe Chadli for 1gw) Boyd
    Aguero Costa Pelle

    Look ok?

    1. President John F. Keninnsie
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure I'd keep 2 Saints if I was wildcarding. Krul has a tough stretch of games soon too.

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

        This. Maybe look elsewhere

      2. Pie-o-My
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        keeper wise at 4.5 I think he's about as good as there is. Foster and Heaton the other options, seems a bit mental putting in foster the week he travels to chelsea.

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Have a look at Green's fixtures up until the Jan WC. QPR are on the up.

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

      No mufc?

      1. Pie-o-My
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Like? Adm not work it compared to Sanchez at the moment.

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

          he’s not worth it compared to lots of mid priced mids imho

    3. Edmond
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Looks solid overall. Maybe consider moving one of your Soton players, tough fixtures coming up for them.

    4. Pie-o-My
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers folks. Will look at saints probably keep for villa then consider the options.

  4. Azathoth
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Need someone to replace Diame (at the same price range ) but who? Chris Brunt is a decent option ?

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

      Moses for 2 weeks and then switch to Brunt?

  5. Edmond
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Anybody here watched the West Ham game? Curious to know how did Downing play.

  6. money face bandwagon
    • 12 Years

    It might be silly but downing->oscar -4 worth?

    1. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      could be a season defining move high risk high reward not sure I'd do it for a hit

  7. BeachBadger
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Just a follow up in case any of ye were wondering. The little girl who was hit by Yayas shot yesterday is fine and was given signed shirts from both teams. Yaya seemed genuinely concerned and spoke with her and her father over the phone.

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

      pretty sad some in here found that funny

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

        Idiots. I'm convinced the IQ of this place triples come DZ time.

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

          Definitely. Not to put downt the regular posters during the regular hours but gametime is when the crazies come out

          1. SEASIDER
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            Agree. I can't even keep up during game time so have stopped trying. Must be old age.

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

              Generally a waste of time.

      2. BeachBadger
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah some were downright nasty about it. Almost taking glee from it

      3. SEASIDER
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Unfortunately as the community grows you are going to encounter more idiots. Very sad.

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

          yes feels like it

          last season was way better around here, lets hope those guys won’t do so well and quit this forum

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

      yaya seems like a genuine nice fella whenever i hear him speak

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

        Yeah, I sort of feel for him. Must be tough being a footballer in some ways. And in whatever ways he's daft he seems genuinely daft.

        I realize that sounds like a dig but it really isn't.

      2. SEASIDER
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Except on his Birthday

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

          😆

      3. Rasping Drive
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        I agree, very articulate as well.

    3. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Those that laughed at it should be ashamed, that wee girl could have been properly hurt. Her dad didn't cover himself in glory either, jumping out of the way.

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

        Seriously. For shame, Pops. He'll never live that one down.

        1. Cilly Bonnolly
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          If that was one of my girls there's no way she's be taking a hit like that.

          1. Cilly Bonnolly
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            *she'd

  8. Not Irish
    • 12 Years

    Burnley tightening up boads well for my Foster/Heaton rotation.

  9. Evans
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Costa is on 4 yc !

    1. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      yeah I'm hoping he gets his suspension out of the way quickly he is becoming increasingly frustrating to own

    2. BeachBadger
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      The way hes going he'll be carded first half of the next game

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

        And will then shove the referee in anger. 😀

  10. istanbul05
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Howard (Jakupovic)
    Baines, Clyne, Chambers (Wisdom, Hutton)
    Hazard, Sanchez, Downing, Boyd (Cork)
    Aguero, Costa Pelle

    I realise I need to upgrade my MF asap... 1FT but £0m

    A) Pelle -> Austin
    B) Pelle & Cork -> Austin & Chadli/Siggy (-4)
    C) Save FT

    Any advice much appreciated guys!
    Thanks

    1. BMO3033

      Tough situation I'd hope Kane played well so you could bring him in and spend the extra cash on the midfield

  11. Mr. Perfectionist
    • 13 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    How much did you folks score yesterday?

    I have 46 with 4 to play which I assume is fairly average around these parts.

    1. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      50 with four to play similar boat

        Nice score Innsie mate

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Cheers Badger. Pretty similar to you. You'll probably overtake me again tomorrow.

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

            Heres hoping 😉 GWs been alright for me but Pelle and ADM captainers were spared somewhat yesterday. Could have been so much better lol

            1. President John F. Keninnsie
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              Yeah, I still got a nice greenie so I'm happy with the week so far. Captaincy is so important in the top 1k.

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

              I hope you're kidding. 😡

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

                Haha I dont begrudge you your points Mupp. Just wish it could have been better for me lol

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

                  Of course. But to say it could've been better when he only scored one fair goal got under my skin a bit. I'm a bit bitter ATM.

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

                    Haha true. We got lucky as well but thats cynically a big part of this game. Wanting the luck to go your way and go against others.

      2. Mr. Perfectionist
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Great week for you mate!

    11. Mr. Perfectionist
      • 13 Years

      Some good solid scores there. Welbeck might be key today, hoping he will come in for us owners today!

      1. President John F. Keninnsie
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        I'd love that.

    12. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      35 with 4 to play for me - yet another crappy week. Not owning aguero this season has been a killer. It's frustrating though because I'm genuinely content with everyone in my team (bar JT) and yet I continue to score poorly.

      Oh well, as an owner and Newcastle fan, I wouldn't mind a Krul hatrick tonight to set things straight 😉 😛

  12. random.hero
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    coleman starting today?

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

    Do we expect Falcao to start when fit?

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

      Yes. United actually look a bit lost without him

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

          Bah what does LVG know? 😉 I think he should play. For all their bravado of expensive players. They are lacking bite.

    2. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      would think so but who knows when or if that will happen

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

      Maybe

    4. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I think Falcao will be in the Aguero/Costa company if LVG ever gets the finger out and plays him up top with Rooney. RVP is a joke

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

        RVP's general play, link-up and holding, has still been quite good, he just left his shooting boots in Brazil it seems..

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

          He's been sh!t in every way.

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

            🙄 you're biased

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

              Biased? How?

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

                you just don't seem to like him all that much

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

                  Not when he's dire yet untouchable because he's chummy with the manager. Of course not. I want us to do well. He's a major hindrance to that ATM.

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

                    Fellaini has been playing pretty decently in fairness to him..I think our best formation is a diamond using 3 of Blind/Herrera/Carrick/Fellaini with Di Maria in the hole and Rooney and Falcao up top

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

                      I'm just gonna pretend Falcao doesn't exist. Much easier on the ole ticker methinks. Fellaini is also killing us with his overall play. He and RvP are so static and he has no range of passing. Just not good enough.

                      Carrick Blind

                      Herrera

                      Mata/Adnan Rooney AdM

                      That's balance, LvG.

        2. The Left Duke #3
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Falcao has been prolific everywhere he's played and I'm sure he'd be the same in the Prem if given the chance. RVP seems to have a love affair with LVG so he'll always play. I just feel you will not see the best of Falcao if you play him Rooney and RVP together at the same time.

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

            to be clear I wasn't disagreeing with you on the Falcao front, I was just backing up RVP a bit..I think our best formation involves Di Maria in the hole with Rooney and Falcao up top

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

              in a diamond

              1. The Left Duke #3
                • 11 Years
                11 years, 4 months ago

                I agree mate, think Falcao should be giving the chance.

    Guys,
    I'm hoping to save my ft, but slightly worried about no aguero Or sanchez. Save or try to get them in?

    Foster Schmeichel

    1. BMO3033
      • 11 Years

      seems you could save this week and then use the southampton players to bring one of them in

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

        Yeah, that's my thinking. Cheers

    2. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on your funds, and Alexis performance today. If he fires again and you don't make a move, you'll probably have to pay 0.6 more for them come next game week.

  15. NED KELLY
    • 14 Years

    Will Chelsea go in unbeaten?

    1. Gr3g
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Possible

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

      There's over 25 matches left..they'll lose.

    3. Amateur Pundit Zan

      Very unlikely but not impossible

  16. Get up ya bum

    It's natural to be amused when little people a footy in the head or fall over or fall off a swing. Even funnier when it's a kid. Never seen funniest home videos? It's all kids getting hurt.
    Doesn't mean they are sad or are laughing at her pain or don't want her to be ok or don't feel bad for finding it funny.

        A fall over is cool , but a " footy in the head " a little severe .

      I don't find any of those reels where someone could potentially be injured amusing, especially when a child is involved.

        well lots do and it says absolutely nothing about them not caring. It is quite natural for many people.
        I say this as a doting dad of two girls who has had to stifle a laugh at the hilarity of some of their falls etc while simultaneously being worried/concerned and feeling their pain and running to console them. The fact their stack was funny as shit and the fact i don't want them to ever feel pain have nothing to do with each other

            how else you gonna get the perfect shot?

            P.s. I should point out i havee not seen the yaya clip but just seen lots of people saying those that find someone getting hurt is a bad person etc when in fact it's perfectly natural human reaction.
            I probably should have watched before commenting judging by the comment below 😮

              😆 I feel you, boss. I'm a dad too. But there's a point at which concern takes over no matter how funny it might've been. That was well across that line.

          The home video clips can be funny. You know they are ok. When it's live it's not funny as you don't know how the kid is. Just as I don't know how a kid is if I see one fall down the stairs or fall off a climbing frame. Or gets smacked in the head by a football in the park come to think of it.

          What? Why didn't she duck? And why did she raise her arms after the ball hit her and not before? If this had happened to a boy, you'd all be laughing and calling him an idiot, etc.

      I understand where you're coming from - YBF is funny enough at times. But I found that clip downright disturbing - and I'm no shrinking violet I assure you! It looked like the kids neck could have been snapped, was horrible.

    5. SEASIDER

      If it's a funny home video then you know the kid was actually ok bar a few bruises.

      If it's live you have no idea.

      Not funny.

      1. BeachBadger

        This is the big difference I feel. Would you laugh at those videos in the knowledge that the person suffered brain damage or worse? Now I will put my hand up and say usually I am the first to laugh at dumb people.doing dumb things and the likes but this is a bit different

  17. Azathoth

    Trying to find the best plan if the worst case scenario happens : Cesc & Costa get their 5th yellow the same GW..

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Just bench them for a week, selling either is FPL suicide imo

      1. BMO3033
        • 11 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        probably right problem is bringing costa in for a hit only to get a one pointer and a match ban that is putting me off him right now

      2. Amateur Pundit Zan
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        You can sell fab, plenty of premium alternatives will match him

  18. Fred the Red
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years

    Pelle to Costa

    &

    Ivanovic to N. Taylor

    for a hit?

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

      I think I would.

    2. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      couldn't fault you for it not sure about costa sitting on four cards but who knows when that fifth card will fall

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

        Yep remember that exact same issue when Suarez was hovering on a suspension and people were hesitating over bringing him in but it never came. Best to bite the bullet.

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Even if Costa is suspended - bench him for one game - he's on the quick road to 250-pointsville & his compatriot Fabregas won't be far behind him. I know template teams get a bad rep on here, but I couldn't have an FPL squad without them both in it.

          1. BMO3033
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            Common sense dictates I should bring him in and I just want to believe he's more trouble than he's worth even though I'm one of the few who held through the first injury scare

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

            See below. I've got a FT to bring him in for Pelle. My bench would need some remedial work if he did get a booking

      1. Amateur Pundit Zan

        Definitely wait

  19. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Imagine the scenes if Harry Kane starts today... imagine the scenes if he starts & scores...
    Similarly - if Sanchez hits a 2 pointer (about as likely as pigs flying) the transfer market will go mental.
    Also - if Theo starts & bags a brace... lots of "ifs" today! lol

    1. SEASIDER
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      I think the last one would see the biggest meltdown on here.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 16 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Yep - Theo hitting form is one of the few "black swan" FPL events I would consider taking a hit for.
        If theo starts & does well today I'll be hitting the bye-bye button on ADM & hitting the hello button on Theo! lol

          Alexis/Wally double up?

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            That's what I'm thinking but who knows what ADM or anyone else will be doing when Wally starts starting.

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

              I think LVG should give Di Maria a run in the hole

          2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            Na, Alexis too rich for my budget - Theo will be my arsenal coverage.

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

          Same. I was initially thinking Sanchez -> Wally but now think ADM -> Wally and double up might be the way to go.

          Sanchez and Wally could be this season's Suarez and Sturidge. Could be.

    2. johnbarnes

      the second one would make me so happy. I can't even fathom it.

    After the United game, so many bought Ulloa, I knew that was clear point-chasing...

    I feel vindicated.

    1. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Not jumping almost a differential i brought him in before the game for a hit and felt vindicated but sold berahino and missed some of his hauls so i probably lost in the long run

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I thought the exact same thing - great minds eh 🙂
      I actually remember saying on here after the utd game the Ulloa owners will want him out after he goes 4 or 5 games iwthout a goal, must dig up the post for a bit of ITOLDYOUSO indulgence lol

      I just hope same thing doesn't happen to super charlie Austin

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

        it will happen to "super" Charlie Austin. Aguero-Costa-Pellé is the way to go.

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Don't you dare inverted comas super charlie austin. He is super & he will stay super. lol

      1. BMO3033
        • 11 Years

        That convinced me to sell before long did think he might have had a little better run than he did after the game

    Just got to retain it now....

  22. sinik
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    11 years, 4 months ago

    had 39 (6 above average) and still dropped from 247k to 250k..that was surprising..4 players tomorrow, hopefully I get something..would be nice to break top 200k this weekend and push on from there

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Unusually, I did well in rank (up to 2.8k to position 1234 believe it or not lol) but didn't do as well as expected in mini-leagues & H2H leagues... most of them are for cash though so stiff competition.

      My Sterling & Wellbs -> ADM & Austin looks ok so far... hope Wellbz is quiet today.

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

        I have Baines, Chambers, Sanchez and Berahino..a lot of ownership mixed up in there so I don't expect to move all that much..

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Well with those 4, you'd be expecting a green arrow, and probably a big jump up at that. All 4 capable of double figure points today, and I include Chambers in that

          I have BainesChambersKrulSiggy... have had a sneaking suspicion of a krul penalty save for quite some time now after his world cup heroics.. today could be the day

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

            I really hope so..I've been very unlucky with captaincies this season..did the math yesterday and determined that picking perfect captains up until now would have meant a rank inside the top 20k compared with the 250k I'm at right now..crazy.. to think I could be at least with a 5 digit rank with maybe one or two better captaincies

    Feel naked without Costa.

    Is he essential?

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 16 Years

      he is beyond Essential - he is Assential 🙂

    2. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Naturism is fun!

      But after seeing United labouring to dispatch Palace yesterday, and Hazards once again sparkling performance without returns, I am getting tempted to get in Costa at the expense of either Hazard or ADM

    3. Elfozzie 42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      I think it really depends on what sacrifices you need to make elsewhere.

      I'd say Aguero is the only must have striker right now, but behind him there's a wealth of credible options. Pelle, Austin, Berahino, Sakho, Costa are all sensible choices for me, then there's the slight punts of Wellbeck, Bony and Ulloa, the soon to return Sturridge and the must come good sometime RVP.

      Costa's fitness is a clear issue, I started the season with him but then pulled him out when he started to miss games. I'm pretty happy with Pelle and Berahino, but I think on balance I'd like to get him back in for an easier looking run of fixtures, even though it'll mean a double switch and maybe sacrificing Fabregas.

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

    Just want to confirm

    Free transfer - Pelle ➡ Costa

    Other strikers Kun and Sakho. Any reason not to pull the trigger?

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      No reason whatsoever

    2. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      No good reason not to unless there's a glaring weakness somewhere else

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

        Nope, no Baines but everything else is fine. Got the 3 standard Soton players

    3. Crouch Potato!
      • 14 Years

      Costa on 4ycs?

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

        Yep, only consideration although have to cross that bridge when I get to it. My bench is in tatters

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

      I'd wait as long as possible in case there are injuries over the next 2 weeks, but that looks a good move to me.

      1. John Nerdelbaum

      • 15 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Only issue is making changes ahead of an international break. Unless you're sure players are going to leap in value or become unavailable I think it's better to make sure they come back in one piece from their international duty first.

  26. Jinswick
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Best move here lads?

    A) Chadli & Pelle -> Sterling/Silva/Walcott & Austin
    B) Wisdom & Pelle -> Cahill & Austin
    C) Something else

    Bank 0.0m, 2 freebies

    Krul
    Baines, Chambers, Yun
    Sanchez, Hazard, Chadli, Siggy
    Aguero, Costa, Pelle

    Elliot, Wisdom, Hutton, Albrighton

    1. BMO3033
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      wisdom seems decent value and not sure i'm sold on chadli but I would definitely watch the spurs closely before ditching and cahill because of the goal today or do you have a different reason to prefer him to azpilcueta

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Cahill > Azpil for me because he offers a bigger goal threat and should also mop up more BPs. Worth the extra 0.4m, but Azpil also a good buy. It's mainly to get some CHE defence though as their fixtures are improving.

        1. President John F. Keninnsie
          • 12 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          Azpi is the biggest BPS magnet in the game. He's got bonus in every game this season where Chelsea have kept a CS.

          1. Jinswick
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 15 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            😯 I knew he was good, but didn't realise he was that good!

            You don't think Cahill is worth the 0.4m extra then with the added goal threat?

        2. BMO3033
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 4 months ago

          a while back there was an article called baseline bps azpi had the greatest likelihood of picking up bps of any defender in the league

          1. BMO3033
            • 11 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            *Given no attacking returns

          2. President John F. Keninnsie
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 4 months ago

            That was an excellent article 😉

              • 11 Years
              11 years, 4 months ago

              I agree I redid it for forwards this week trying to figure out what i was gonna do with pelle and to see how to deal with costa it isn't nearly as useful as the original though i'm afraid

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

      Oh, and add Oscar to the list in A

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

      Not sure if there's too much to change there. B could be done after the Soton - Villa game.

      Maybe a Hutton ➡ Dummett/Saylor move?

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, although probably not much in Pelle (avl) vs Austin (lei) this week, and if I'm going to do it anyway it then avoids making a bit of a meh transfer this week like Wisdom/Hutton -> a 3.9m er. Am already double NEW defence in GK also.

    4. Amateur Pundit Zan
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      A with walcott looks ok but may be 2 soon, depends how he looks tonight.

    5. Debauchy
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      Good time to dump Albrighton imo

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, I want to do this, but with 0.0m in the bank I need to downgrade elsewhere.

        Feels like a bit of a wasted transfer too as I'll unlikely start his replacement often.

  27. CasaBanter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 4 months ago

    Has anyone ever done any research on how many penalties are conceded per game in each month of the season? I wonder if as we get in to the winter months and the pitches are slippier that more penalties are conceded. If so, this could be a reason to go Fabregas to Hazard.

    Fabregas could make the pass to the chap that gets chopped down and gets no points. Hazard scores the penalty and gets 6!

    1. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 4 months ago

      As much as I admire your thinking, and can't refute it with any actual research, I'm content that the slipperiness of the pitches won't dominate my fantasy decisions 😛

        Wouldn't dominate it, but in those judgement calls like Fab and Hazard it could be worth considering

          I think the fact that hazard has pens to his name is what adds to his attractiveness compared to Fabregas. I'm just not convinced that slippery pitches is an addition to hazard's résumé.

            Fair enough. Have had Fab from the start, but thinking about switching to Haz

      We'll all be jumping into bed with Wally as soon as he flutters his eyelashes.

    ok that was pretty nasty 😯 my point still stands in general. Dad should have taken one for the team for sure. No time to think i know but it's not a good look 🙂

    I know I'm going to need to start offloading soton players, but really reluctant to lose pelle. Would mean no aguero. Also have tadic and much happier getting rid of him.
    Are others losing both?

      Still got villa to come so no, holding for now.

      Losing tadic this week, not sure on pelle going forward yet, a 5th yc may be a blessing and the incentive i need.

      Wanyama is a season keeper 😉

      The form they're in I think it would be a mistake to ditch even with their fixtures.

      Arsenal, City, United. All 3 defences are capable of conceding

      Huh,that's never happened before, was top of next page and just been demoted!
