These are difficult times for Granville. Sadly for him, his prediction that Diego Costa’s studs played into my hands along with Emre Can’s ankle proved correct – the Chelsea villain pushed me into a Gameweek 23 Wildcard and I cashed in.

It left Granville spitting feathers and 92-points behind but he remains defiant. Even with the millions draining from his squad via his active Wildcard, my resolute co-host is not giving up on keeping the season alive and the rivalry as bitter as ever.

We weigh up Granville’s latest options in his quest to close the gap: analysing the contest between Sturridge and Aguero for our place in our forward lines, check in on the fallout from the Sanchez injury, whilst wading through the usual regulars ahead of another Gameweek.

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

    The FA are refusing to say why they are investigating last summer’s £15million transfer of Calum Chambers.

    2.Mane - falcao - baird
    3.Puncheon - falcao - bellerin (punch can be switched for Elia or Walters)

      Wisdom

    2. Nobodinho

  9. Caesar, Hot Mustache
    • 11 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    first week with ADM : 5 points, & -0.1 value. Smh! I'm the only one who finds it amusing that he's dropped in price?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      eh? He's still 9.6m

      1. Caesar, Hot Mustache

        1. Bojaninho

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years

    Which midfield is the best?

    A) Sterling, Hazard, C. Gil's, Ozil, Walcott

    B) Hazard, Walcott, ADM, Ozil, Sinclair

    C) sterling, Walcott, ozil, ADM, Fabregas

    1. Ibracadabra´s Spell
      • 11 Years

      B if you can do Sinclair to Colback or Walters.

      Eriksen > Sterling?

      1. La Roja
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Eriksen in form. Form over fixture for me

        1. Nickofoz
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          Sterling's form is just as good imo, with Sturridge returning too

          1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Well, it is better, actually, Nick.

          2. La Roja
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Yea true, but had Eriksen last 9 GW's and reluctant to lose him

            1. Nickofoz
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              Get rid of him now before the blank for arguably a better option, then get him back in GW28.

    When do we get clarification on the date of Chelsea's double gameweek?

    1. che
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      After Leicesters FA cup v Villa

  16. Captain Shirokov
    • 14 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    How has Klopp not been sacked yet?

    Living off his reputation?

    1. GunsnRoses
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Yes

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Sacking Klopp would probably make things much worse

      1. Captain Shirokov
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Why? Doesn't look like it can get much worse tbh, 16 points from 19 games with a squad that's well capable of competing in the CL.

    3. Ibracadabra´s Spell
      • 11 Years

      Dortmund needs ex-Mainz Tuchel.

  17. rozzo
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Which one guys

    A) Bertrand to Jones (bench Sanchez and play Puncheon)
    B) Sanchez to Silva (bench Bertrand and play Wisdom)

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I think your fine to save Sanchez if Punch is your 5th mid. We will be able to view Arsenals lines up on Tues so if Sanchez on bench then transfer out. Bertrand >> Clichy/Clyne/Fonte

      1. che

    Plot twist: Villa shuts up shop after conceding 5 at Arsenal.
    FT: 0-0

    there will be tears - seeing as I plan to bring Oscar in for Alexis 🙁

    1. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Funny guy. More like 8-0. #tbt

    2. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Not going to happen 3-0 at least

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years

      Hope not.. am going to the game!

      1. Caesar, Hot Mustache
        • 11 Years

        aye! what a man.

        another 5-0 bloodbath then. Oscar hatrick

    4.2 in the bank. 0FT (Bertrand > Clyne)
    Thoughts on what my best bet is for replacing Sanchez? Or do I keep him?

    Foster
    Koscielny - Clyne - Van Arnholt
    Di Maria - Eriksen - Sanchez - Hazard
    Giroud - Gayle - Austin

    Hamer - Elia - Taylor - Duff

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      basically the same dilemma. I'm now thinking of selling for Silva (-4).

      tough call mind (as below)

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Too many issues with that team

    3. Nickofoz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Keep, Elia is fine

    4. Sheep
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Keep him.

    5. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      You can keep him but where is Aguero?

  20. Connor's Calling
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Assuming Sanchez plays on Tues night, what does everyone think his price will be?

    It'll start Sat @ 11.2, Doubt it'll drop on Sat night having dropped on Fri night, so let's assume it falls on Sun night; 11.1. Again Mon night then unlikely; so he'll most likely be 11.1 to buy back.

    Bit of a bummer as i can only sell for 10.8...so that's 0.3m precious pounds that i'll almost certainly wish i had when i use my spare wild card. That said, it'll mean i can play Chadli over Boyd this week.

    So...are you worth 0.3m Chadli. Are you!?

    1. Connor's Calling
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      right i've finally gone mad. apologies for the multiple posts.

      catch you kids tomorrow.

        • 16 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        *plugs keyboard back in very quickly*

        No what Doos? not worth losing 0.3m for? You reckon i should just play Boyd/PVA this week and not waste an in/out transfer?

        1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          You can't just stand there. I mean, you are late, as it is. I blame a reluctance to actually make a decision.

    3. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I think he will only drop .1 before Tuesday game

  21. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    11 years, 1 month ago

    Rooney will drop, I believe.

    There is an outside chance of a rise for Bellerin and Walters.

      Nope, happier to own Falcao for the moment

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years

        Hard to know if he'll start over Lallana at the weekend or come off the bench again.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    So for Spurs DGW Lloris, Eriksen and Kane? Is what I am thinking, I am guessing many will go for Chadli

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Rose Eriksen Kane

      1. Sheep
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Chadli will be popular again by then.

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I will just go eriksen + kane

    3. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      I'm not going to own Kane for the DGW 😯
      My front 3 for that GW will be Costa, Aguero, Giroud.

      1. Doosra - ☭DeclanMyGenius…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years

        That might well go horribly wrong ...

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          I think he'll be rested. And I think owning him is boring 🙂

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member

              C'mon. I don't dig stats, you should know me well enough by now 😉
              I honestly think he's due a rest and one of the DGW games would be the perfect chance.

          Kanemeister, Eriksen (although he has seriously, seriously burned me this season) and probs Lloris as the third one. DGW season FTW... 🙂

    Giroud/Sanchez/Cazorla...... too many eggs in one basket or of because of fixtures?

    1. _Ninja_

      or ok**

    2. Cheeseoid

      I think that is to many. Away at Spurs is not an easy fixture.

      maybe after the Spurs game, but NOT for this GW. Says I who currently own all three.

      *i'm in two minds about shipping Alexis for Silva or not

      We need a goal festival.

      3-2, 4-2, 5-3, 2-2, etc.

    A. Get Kompany in for Bertrand, bench Alexis and play Boyd

    B. Get Silva in for Alexis, bench Bertrand and play Wisdom

    Thoughts?

      • 11 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      B

    Forster, 4m
    Kos, Bert, PVA, Wisdom, Baird

    Keep or get rid of Bertrand? Not many options out there tbh.

    1. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 1 month ago

      Clyne?

      1. Captain Shirokov
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Don't want a double up anymore

    2. Stats Don\'t Lie

      What about a punt on Zouma?

      1. Captain Shirokov
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 1 month ago

        Hmmm maybe, although I can afford any Chelsea defender. Zouma still your pick?

        1. 32chickens
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 1 month ago

          get rid of baird then in favour of ivan

          1. Captain Shirokov
            • 14 Years
            11 years, 1 month ago

            Meant I can only afford Bert to any CHE def.

            1. 32chickens
              • 15 Years
              11 years, 1 month ago

              would still worry @baird

                • 14 Years
                11 years, 1 month ago

    Sanchez > SIlva for -4?

    Can probably ship out ADM later for Sanchez when fit.
