Spurs duo Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen arrive under analysis in our first members piece of the week. Watford’s budget frontman, Arsene Wenger’s dilemma up front and Leicester’s out-of-position Ghanaian are also on our radar after impressive weekend showings.

    I'm really struggling with this week's FT, folks ...

    Migs
    Azpi, Bellerin, Toby
    Yaya, Sanchez, Sterling, Payet
    Pelle (C), Martial, Vardy

    (Ruddy, Moreno, Mahrez, Huth)

    A) Martial to Lukaku
    B) Martial to Bony
    C) Azpi to Kompany

    Any input much appreciated, cheers ...

    1. Flynny
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Get rid of azpi....maybe van dyke

      1. Clay
        10 years, 11 months ago

        That's another decent option. But then I've still got to watch Martial sitting on the wing waving his hands in the air.

    2. Joggers Nipple
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A

      1. Clay
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Who do you want as our new manager then, SAB? I wouldn't mind Lingy.

    3. Jafalad
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A. Get the forwards right first-the most points come from this area.

    4. The 12th Man
      10 years, 11 months ago

      C probably.
      I wouldn't get in Martial if I didn't have him but would find it difficult to shift if I had.

    5. Clay
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Cheers all

    6. Epic Fail
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A or B

      1. Clay
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks EF. If you had to choose on, with that team? Triple Citeh or Lukaku's fixtures?

        1. Epic Fail
          10 years, 11 months ago

          I feel you have to keep Lukaku for the long haul if you get him. I'm not a fan of doing that so City for me.

          1. Clay
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Agreed.

    7. OzilFozzil
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I went A a couple of weeks ago, but Lukaku is an absolute troll of an FPL player. Be warned.

      1. Clay
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Thats the thing. Fixtures say buy me, history tells me to stay away. I've got previous with him and it was ugly. That sounded wrong.

    8. Effe

  2. The 12th Man
    10 years, 11 months ago

    I have 1.1m in the bank for a Gomez upgrade which is my transfer this week.

    The question is do I leave the money in the bank to go towards getting Aguero back in later and get a cheap defender for Gomez?

    Or spend the money to do Gomez > 5.6 or less?

    My defence at the moment is Darmian, Bellerin, Cedric, Francis, Gomez
    .

    1. Joggers Nipple
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Get a 4.5 for me.

      1. The 12th Man
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Ward or Galloway were the ones I was looking at.
        A tad worried about Baines returning in Galloways case.

        1. Joggers Nipple
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Watfod and the attacking full back for Palace too? He wont be playing much for you anyway

          1. The 12th Man
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Souare, could do that.

    2. Emp
      10 years, 11 months ago

      get moreno

      1. The 12th Man
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Got Mignolet.
        I could downgrade Mignolet and get Moreno.

  3. Joggers Nipple
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Bottomed out, excuse a cut and paste
    Just seen how kind of 'cheap' Ozil is!

    A
    Sanchez Mata KDB Maherez WESTWOOD
    KANE Pelle Vardy

    B
    Sanchez Mata KDB Maherez OZIL
    LUKAKU Pelle Vardy
    -4

    B is really tempting me!

    1. KOLASINA(C)
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Wow B looks epic.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        I know right!
        Maherez becomes the 5th mid but happy to roll with that for a while while having Vardy

    2. S.Kuqi
      10 years, 11 months ago

      A looks better to me.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        This was my original plan as i was coming round to Kane. Thanks for input, will listen on here now......

    3. Clay
      10 years, 11 months ago

      B. Definitely

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        thanks

    4. Jafalad
      10 years, 11 months ago

      He's cheap for a reason though - he doesn't score many goals. This should be a prerequisite when selecting a mid.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Understood. But 5th (?) scoring mid so far? Im still un-decided, cheers for input

    5. Jape
      10 years, 11 months ago

      There is a lack of Payet

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        This is a problem, if Mata is getting subbed any more hes gone for him soon

        1. Jape
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Oh ok fair enough. He's just hard not to have when he's been one of the most consistent and fixture proof midfielders.

          1. Joggers Nipple
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Understood. Mata is on borrowed time...... Thanks again

    6. The 12th Man
      10 years, 11 months ago

      B looks good but benching headache like me.

      A is probably the sensible option.
      I'd probably monitor Mata and if he continues to disappoint do Mata > Ozil later.

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks

    7. Johnny98
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I have a similar lineup and was also thinking of something like B). Who would you bench though?

      1. Joggers Nipple
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Maherz i guess, its this Aguero cash floating around that does this!

  4. Rabbinton
    10 years, 11 months ago

    I've got 2FT and pretty set on Martial > Bony but unsure on my defence:

    A)Azpi > Bellerin
    B)Coates > Gabriel
    C)Targett > Galloway

    Schmeichel
    Azpi Kolarov Francis
    Sanchez KDB Mane Payet
    Vardy Pelle Martial

    Hennessey Mahrez Coates Targett

    1. S.Kuqi
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Really nice team!

      Nothing wrong with it. I would probably get VVD instead of Bellerin altough he looks best def option atm

    2. Joggers Nipple
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Probably B. Start Gab, Azpi and Kolorov all weeks with Francis as back up

  5. Flynny
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Got 1.5itb and 2fts.....thinking of martial and clyne to kane and van dyke....what do u reckon?.......Kane a better choice than lukaku?......

    Current team is

    Begovic McCarthy
    Kolarov clyne Dawson Francis oshea
    Sanchez mahrez payet kdb yaya
    Pelle martial ighalo

    Thanks

    1. Joggers Nipple
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Good plan, Kane for me over Lukaku in a direct choice like that

    2. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I done...

      Williams > Van Dyke
      Martial > Kane

      1. Flynny
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Nice one...think that's what I'll do after tonight's matches...

        1. Paulie Walnuts
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Good moves... i should have waited but i am too impatient, also i doubt wither will play

  6. _Gunner
    10 years, 11 months ago

    1FT, 1.4 itb

    Schmeicel Butland
    Cedric FRancis Kolarov Azpi Saylor*
    HAZARD SAnchez Mahrez Payet Yaya
    Ighalo Pelle' Vardy

    What do you think guys? Which is better?

    A- Hazard > KDB
    B- Hazard + Ighalo > Mane + Lukaku -4
    C- Hazard + Ighalo > Mane + Bony -4
    D- Hazard + Ighalo > Mane + Kane -4
    E- other

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 11 months ago

      D

      1. _Gunner
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Kane's fixtures are tougher than that of Lukaku's and Bony's

        you are not worried about that ?

        1. Paulie Walnuts
          10 years, 11 months ago

          No, the stats are comparable to those of last season... He will produce regardless.
          Lukaku is a troll of the highest level

          1. _Gunner
            10 years, 11 months ago

            and Bony ?

            1. Paulie Walnuts
              10 years, 11 months ago

              too short term...

              Its ironic because he is far from Boney

              1. _Gunner
                10 years, 11 months ago

                Thanks

                who should I bench then ?

                1. Paulie Walnuts
                  10 years, 11 months ago

                  AOA this week?

                  What are your plans to get Aguero back in?

                  1. _Gunner
                    10 years, 11 months ago

                    downgrading Yaya and upgrading Kane/Lukaku/Bony

                    whoever I get

                    Thanks for the help

    2. Joggers Nipple
      10 years, 11 months ago

      d

      1. _Gunner
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Lukaku and Bony's fixtures are better than that of Kane's

        Why are you leaning towards Kane ?

  7. AxeMinion
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 11 months ago

    What do y'all think between:

    A) Sako --> Barkley (-4) -- epic fixtures
    B) Richards --> Rojo (-4) -- good fixtures, good cheap access to good defence
    C) Sako --> Ozil (-4) -- good fixtures, great form, but got Sanchez

    ?

    1. _Gunner
      10 years, 11 months ago

      C

    2. Jimbo123
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Prefer Ozil to Barkley

      1. karvs155
        10 years, 11 months ago

        A if you dont have lukaku

    3. AxeMinion
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Thanks folks.

      I do have Lukaku (or will by then, hence the -4).

  8. Lateriser 12
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 11 months ago

    So, who else is gambling Bony(c)?

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Kane (c) for me

    2. S.Kuqi
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I wouldn't consider it a gamble. Looks best option to me.

    3. Catilo
      10 years, 11 months ago

      O/

      With silva coming back, he just have to explode.

    4. Jape
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I'm doing this.

  9. Jimbo123
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Chaps, I need a striker for £8m that isn't Vardy, Ighalo, Sakho or Diouf?

    Any suggestions?

    It's for a draft team. Gomis? Rent depending on Costa?

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Alan Smith

    2. Jimbo123
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Remy *

    3. Sooda
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Gomis is struggling atm... Fletcher?

    4. Sharkytect
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Fletcher

  10. Johnny98
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Had a dream Smalling scored twice in one of Utd's next couple of games. Both headers came directly from corners. Must be a sign.

    1. HNI
      10 years, 11 months ago

      1 goal could happen...2 shows it really is a dream

  11. FAITHNOMORENO
    10 years, 11 months ago

    basically,this following game week is all about whether we should do mahrez -> mane

    1. Jafalad
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Don't see why you can't have both. They will be both needed.

      1. FAITHNOMORENO
        10 years, 11 months ago

        I can't play 8 attackers every week.
        maybe this game week I can bench mahrez,but the next one is already a benching nightmare.

    2. Johnny98
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Not really..

    3. Lord of Ings
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I think I am lucky in that way,Going to Bench berahino vs Utd no Brainer....

      1. FAITHNOMORENO
        10 years, 11 months ago

        do you remember what happened last year?

  12. S.Kuqi
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Will Mane outscore Payet by 4 points in next 3 gws? I bought Payet for 8.0 so no big value loss to me if I ship him out. Altough he keeps on giving.

    Mane (BOU,sun,STK)

    Payet (wat,EVE,tot)

    1. S.Kuqi
      10 years, 11 months ago

      its probably madness tough

    2. Dynamic Duos
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Both should be everyones team

    3. Jøssy ⭐
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Absolute coin toss! As you say, Payet has been such a consistent scorer for us, it's hard to lose him. But Mane as the potential to score multiple goals in a GW.

      Mane was the player who persuaded me to go 352 actually, so I could have both.

    4. Jøssy ⭐
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I didn't answer your question...

      If I was forced to decide one way or the other if Mane could score an extra 4 points in 3 GWs, as my life was on the line, I'd say yes. But I'd be really worried I was about to lose my life! 😆

  13. karvs155
    10 years, 11 months ago

    2FT, 1.3 ITB. What do to?
    Myhill
    Zabaleta Bellerin Cedric
    Sanchez KDB Mahrez Payet
    Lukaku Pelle Vardy
    (Gomes, Hoolahan Neil.Taylor Soare*)

    A) Williams -> Simpson (3.9) for freeing up funds
    B) Soare -> Simpson (if soare injured)
    C) Zabaleta -> Kompany for safe city def cover
    D) Get in man utd defence somehow?
    E) Other suggestions??

  14. Jape
    10 years, 11 months ago

    How this look? Worth taking another -4? or good to go?

    Cech
    Dawson / Jaanmat / Bellerin
    Sanchez / Payet / KDB / Mahrez
    Pelle / Vardy / Bony

    Subs: Gomes / Moreno / Wanyama / Prodl

    1. karvs155
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Good to go! Good luck 🙂

      1. Jape
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks

      2. Jape
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Good luck to you too.

    2. KingOllie
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Same front 7 as me. Big week incomming.

  15. Jonny Sutt
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Will jones play as much as Darmain? Because I'd love an extra .4m in my bank!

    1. Piggs Boson
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Yes I think so. Although you never know with LvG

    2. Lord of Ings
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Valencia is injured LVG confirmed,Darmian likely to start.

      1. Jonny Sutt
        10 years, 11 months ago

        But what are jones chances for a starting berth for the season?

  16. UptheBlues
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Is Diego Costa's injury serious? if necessary who to replace him with?

    A)Kane
    B)Lukaku
    C)Bony

    1. Dynamic Duos
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Out for A injury or not imo

    2. Jape
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Even if it's not serious he needs replacing.

      You won't get a straight answer on here.

      Kane - Just scored a hatrick, has fixtures, could hit great form, long term
      Lukaku - Inconsistent, good fixtures, long term
      Bony - not really much form, NOR and AVL then Kun is back, short term

      1. Dynamic Duos
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Kane is the answer

        1. Jape
          10 years, 11 months ago

          We shall see 😉 (C) Bony myself. Good luck

          1. Dynamic Duos
            10 years, 11 months ago

            I will have both anyway and Mane(c)

            1. Jape
              10 years, 11 months ago

              Oh fair enough. Big points for you this week then.

              1. Dynamic Duos
                10 years, 11 months ago

                Hopefully. I will actually have abc here.

                1. Jape
                  10 years, 11 months ago

                  Good luck to you 🙂

                  1. Dynamic Duos
                    10 years, 11 months ago

                    Good luck to you to 🙂

        2. UptheBlues
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Not a fan of Kane to be honest. Two of his goals on the weekend were just given to him

          1. Dynamic Duos
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Has great stats though, start converting them into returns soon enough.

    Butland

    Vardy Ighalo Berahino...good to go?

    1. Super Silva
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Not bad

    2. Jape
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Indeed.
      Could do Berahino for Lukaku/Kane/Bony/Pelle if you have a FT

      1. Lord of Ings
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Berahino looks good just for this gameweek tbh.Good home record and a relatively leaky defence..Benching him next week so no benching headaches for me 😀

        1. Jape
          10 years, 11 months ago

          Ok then good to go 🙂 Good luck

    3. megatronaldinho
      10 years, 11 months ago

      i'll echo the sentiments of the guy last night urging u to change ure name. not cos it's objectively offensive but cosit's very distasteful and terribly spelt

  18. Super Silva
    10 years, 11 months ago

    I still have Hazard

    1. _Gunner
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Am selling tonight after the matches

    2. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      10 years, 11 months ago

      11.1 waste of cash sell so many good scoring midfielders right now take your pick

      KDB
      Payet
      Mane
      Barkley
      Sanchez
      Ozil
      Silva return maybe
      Sterling
      Basically any midfielder apart from a Chelsea one

    3. HNI
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Brave man

  19. MORIS FC
    10 years, 11 months ago

    C: Martial (in my Team right now)
    D: Giroud

  20. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…

    Was Wijnaldum a knee jerk mistake? Really don't like a newcaslte shirt in my starting 11!!

    it's looking like he could go up another .1 this week, I'm currently .1 away from being able to do transfer Wijnaldum >> Mane

    if he does go up would you do this transfer or do you think Newcaslte could score ok over then 2/3 gws

      They have amazing fixtures don't worry.gameweek 12 they have Bournemouth :3 But I had sensed it bringing him vs Sunderland would be a mistake cause Sunderland would park the bus

        So you keeping?

        1. The 12th Man
          10 years, 11 months ago

          I'm keeping. Good fix.
          Got points before his 25 point haul.

        2. Lord of Ings
          10 years, 11 months ago

          I never had him.He has good fixtures,keep him.

      I would never have jumped onboard Wijnaldum personally. Good player, but stats skewed by the 4 goals and is too inconsistent. Consistency is key in this game.

      1. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
        10 years, 11 months ago

        I hear you but I did due to upcoming fixtures however would you hold till Bou fixture or switch to Mane?

      2. The 12th Man
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Every player blanks now and then.
        Before his 4 goals

        Wk 7 CHE 8 points
        Wk 8 mcy. 5 points

        He will be ok.
        He derby was always going to be a tough game.

          Thanks feel better.. Captain? 🙂

            10 years, 11 months ago

            Don't push it.

    1 free transfer this week, worth dropping Ruddy and upgrading to someone?

    1. Howard for their fixtures - though they have been conceding a lot?
    2. Gomis - for their fixtures and saves
    3. De Gea - for medium fixtures and C/S

  22. Eden Hazardous
    10 years, 11 months ago

    GTG?

    Begovic (McC)
    Kolarov Bellerin Huth (Francis , Targett)
    Sanchez Mane Sterling(C) Cazorla(may play CAM or RW) (Sako)
    Pelle Vardy Igloo

    1. HNI
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Great but may think Caz-->Mata if he gets more gametime

      1. Eden Hazardous
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Cazorla will play CAM or RW now

        1. HNI
          10 years, 11 months ago

          But not for long..I am saying for next week do Caz-->Mata 🙂

          Could you help me with my Nathan Ake query below?

  23. HNI
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Watford defender Nathan Ake nailed now that he started last 3 matches? Before Anya used to take his gametime but now he has shifted to right flank and taking Nyom's minutes....Want him cuz he is 4.4mn and I want 0.1 to do Dawson-->Phil Jones next week

    1. Eden Hazardous
      10 years, 11 months ago

      He is nailed

      Chelsea loanee 🙂
      Good to see him doing good

      1. HNI
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Oh when did Watford sign him??
        Was it at end of transfer window because I observed he dint even make bench in start matches

          1. Eden Hazardous
            10 years, 11 months ago

            Pre season transfer but took some time to prove his worth to the manager

    2. Tomlette Greggs

      10 years, 11 months ago

      he's done alright at leftback. I'd think he should continue there.

  24. Sooda
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Need advice please folks: Which (money no object) defender should I get in for the next few GW's

    Kolarov or Coleman are the ones I am mulling over...

    1. HNI
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Smalling, Bellerin, Bertie, Dijk

  25. Count of Monte Hristo
    10 years, 11 months ago

    When is Mourinho getting sacked?

    1. Eden Hazardous
      10 years, 11 months ago

      30 million release clause

      1. Mr Sarcastic
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Only fair to pay it if you think how much they got from Luiz.

  26. Flynny
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Worth going all out attack with this lot surely?...not sure I'll be able to afford decent 5th midfielder when kun is back....

    Begovic
    Kolarov van dyke
    Sanchez mahrez payet kdb (c) yaya
    Pelle Kane ighalo

    Subs....Dawson Francis oshea

    1. Paulie Walnuts
      10 years, 11 months ago

    3. KingOllie

      Bony or Giroud (if walcott injured)

  28. wolves_simmo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 11 months ago

    What should I do with this lot?

    1 FT (1.0 ITB)

    Current team is;

    Butland / (McCarthy*)
    Bellerin / Schlupp / Janmaat / (Targett*) / Kolarov
    Coutinho / Sanchez / Ayew / KDB / (Walcott*)
    Vardy / Pelle / Berahino

    Any suggestions?

    1. super zlatan
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Coutinho > sterling

  29. Jinswick

    Madness to lose both Mahrez and Vardy on a WC?

    I quite like this front 7:

    Sanchez, KDB, Yaya, Mane
    Lukaku, Pelle, Kane

    1. super zlatan
      10 years, 11 months ago

      I would keep them both

      Needs Payet. He is a machine.

      1. La Roja
        10 years, 11 months ago

        This

    2. Hinchcliffe Thumper
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Why would you lose top scorer?

    3. megatronaldinho
      10 years, 11 months ago

      i'd much rather payet or mahrez plus change to yaya. don't see the appeal long term. plus it's front 8 ;p

  30. Whats the Huth
    10 years, 11 months ago

    Thought it'd be interesting to see what you guys all think a 'must have' from ONE position of a team is.

    For example.

    Man Utd; goal keeper.
    Watford; defence
    Arsenal; midfield
    West brom: defence

    Etc

    1. super zlatan
      10 years, 11 months ago

      Can't be arsed with this task.

      Just post your team.

      1. Whats the Huth
        10 years, 11 months ago

        Not a task. A game
