    Good morning DZ.

    2FTs. 0.4m

    Mahrez to;
    A) Barkley
    B) Arnie
    C) Wij
    D) Alli
    E) Stick

    Forster Hennessey
    Alder Dawson Wolly Smith Simpson
    KDB Ozil Payet Mahrez Tettey
    Aguero Kane Lukaku

    Not sure what else to do. Wait for Ozil updates?

    Thanks.

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      WOuld wait for Ozil news first. Barring that, I like A or use the FT in defense

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, Barkley could outscore Mahrez in the next two. Cheers.

    2. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years

      Have you heard of the Mirallas punt? Sounds like fun

      1. EmreCan Hustle
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        That's quite a punt. Nailed on? Gerard and Pienaar are fit.

        1. Pochecinno
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Not exactly nailed on but he should be in the team for the next few. I'm seriously considering it

          1. EmreCan Hustle
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            He's selfish enough to be a great punt. Cheers Poch.

            1. Pochecinno
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              This was Ayew Serious' reasoning when suggesting it 🙂

              1. Ayew Serious
                • 10 Years
                10 years, 2 months ago

                Wouldn't listen to anything that mug says

          2. Swan - Villa Proud
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Would you sell Mahrez for him?

            1. Pochecinno
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Not for Mahrez. Though I'm afraid I may be too attached to Mahrez being an GW1 owner and never having benched him

              1. Ayew Serious
                • 10 Years
                10 years, 2 months ago

                That Grav though

                1. Pochecinno
                  • 10 Years
                  10 years, 2 months ago

                  😉

                  He could even be on penalties if he feels like it

                  1. Ayew Serious
                    • 10 Years
                    10 years, 2 months ago

                    😆

          3. Moss
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            I'd listen to pressers on Friday to see if Martinez gives a hint he'll start. Risky but his stats did look good from the last game.

      2. Slam
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        The grav suggests you've made the transfer? 😛

        1. Pochecinno
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Lol. The Firmino bandwagon on here was started by someone who never got him in

          1. Ayew Serious
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Who was that 🙂

            1. Pochecinno
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              All I remember was Irish Madridista and Internal Error. IM got him in but IE didn't

            2. Pochecinno
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Wait. You don't mean to say you started it, do you?

              1. Ayew Serious
                • 10 Years
                10 years, 2 months ago

                No I didn't, although I could be the IM of this Mirwagon

                1. Pochecinno
                  • 10 Years
                  10 years, 2 months ago

                  😛

  2. Bøwstring The Carp
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Who to bench: Simpson (STO) or Alderweireld (cpy)

    Currently on Simpson.... though Stoke could have their eyes set on the Capital One game....

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Simpson. Palace don't seem to be scoring. And Leicester look tired.

    2. Emp
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      defintitely simpson

    3. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Simpson

    4. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Simpson

    5. The EJJ
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Simpson

  3. Slam
    • 10 Years

    Can everyone who participated confirm they were part of the spreadsheet in the GW21 Scout Picks results? Seems my team was not added.

    1. Slam
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I think OcProdigy might have made a mistake as the link he provided is for the GW20 results 😕

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Looks like GW20

  4. flippetyflop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    When are we likely to find out about the double gameweeks? Plus under what set of circumstances do Everton not have one?

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      If it's a Man City/Stoke final methinks

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        yep

  5. JasonG123
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    2FT, 0.1m ITB. Any ideas for this week? Pretty stuck

    Hennessey (Myhill)
    Bellerin Toby Moreno (Wollscheid Simpson)
    Ozil KDB Payet Mahrez (Wanyama)
    Kun Kane Lukaku

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Sort out the keepers, both may lose their place soon. Otherwise, maybe wait to see if Ozil is alright

      1. JasonG123
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Who do you recommend as a replacement keeper? 4.1m to spend if I replace Hennessey and 4.7m to spend if I replace Myhill.

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Myhill to Schemichel. If Hennessey keeps his job, those two rotate perfectly

    2. The EJJ
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Tough one that, team's in good order, maybe Wanyama to a better 5th mid like Watson?

      1. JasonG123
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers. Will consider that for sure.

  6. The EJJ
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Butland
    Evans, Nyom, Simpson
    Ozil, KDB, Mahrez, Alli
    Kane, Lukaku, Aguero

    Hennessey, Bellerin, Wollscheid, Westwood.

    2.5m 1ft.

    Thoughts? thinking I can afford to save the transfer this week, 2 ft will be useful for upcoming DGWs

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Yep, I'd save

  7. Schwarzer
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Which 7.6 mid would you bring in?
    Barkley or a benchwarmer (I'm thinking Gosling) ?

    I'm selling KDB to make funds for Aguero and already have Payet, Ozil, Alli and Mahrez.
    Cheers.

  8. RoysCallerAnne
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    I'm going to only use 1 of 2 FTs. McCarthy -> Elliot on the chance that Newc have a DGW in the future.
    How incredibly boring 😀

    1. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I expect Mccarthy to play next week

      1. RoysCallerAnne
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        I think Speroni has been on the bench for quite a while. I could be wrong.

        1. Ayew Serious
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          You're right. I just had a bad moment

      2. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Never mind, forgot about Speroni

    2. Dr Dream
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Hart and Elliot are my two keepers now...it's almost like it was planned.

      1. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Nice mate. I got Butland and think I'm getting Elliot for Hennessey.

  9. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Home games remaining

    9 - ARS, LEI, MUN, NOR, SUN, WHM
    8 - AVL, BOU, CPL, EVE, LIV, STO, WAT, WBA
    7 - CHE, MCI, NEW, SOT, SWA, TOT

    Should be a factor when planning your defensive transfers.

    Arsenal to win the league? 👿

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      If Silva and Aguero stay fit I would fancy City, tbh.

      1. toerag
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        big if, but yeah - playing crap atm tho.

    2. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Nice post. Making that Daniels transfer even more appealling

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Yep. I have Kolarov to shift and was ready to confirm Targett in, then I couldn't really see a game that I was going to start him for (and be sure he would start that game). Given that most have their bench boost chip ready for a DGW, I think Targett is a bit of a risk.

        1. Pochecinno
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Southampton also have some tough fixtures coming up.

          Do you think any of the Full backs will become nailed on with Kolarov out?

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            With all the competitions Man City are in, it's going to be a minefield. I fancy Zabaleta and Clichy to get some games as they'll be fresh.

            1. Pochecinno
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Good point about the competitions. I suppose only Kompany, when fit, is 100% safe

              1. Dr Dream
                • 13 Years
                10 years, 2 months ago

                Hart is the only safe pick defensively,

                Hart Silva/KDB Aguero...I fancy them for the good fixtures and maybe 3 DGW's...

                1. Pochecinno
                  • 10 Years
                  10 years, 2 months ago

                  Cheers Wakey. Hart seems a good pick but lack of save points and bonus

                  1. Dr Dream
                    • 13 Years
                    10 years, 2 months ago

                    Aye, hard to compete with Butland but I really do fancy he will get three extra games due to DGW's.

                    Check out Elliots PPG..not as bad as you might think.

                    1. Pochecinno
                      • 10 Years
                      10 years, 2 months ago

                      Yep. Though if I had Hart I couldn't see myself rotating him tbh

    3. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      The teams that City face away though..

      whm sun new liv nor bou che sot swa

      7 teams in the bottom half of the table right now.

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        They all look easy when in lowercase 😀

    4. NATSTER
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Leicester 🙂

  10. toerag
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    green arrows for the 1st time in 3 weeks, yay 🙂

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Yay 🙂

      1. toerag
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        was getting depressing... maybe Kun will keep on scoring for a few weeks now

  11. Pochecinno
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Gravcheck

    Remember this? Mirallas could also be on penalties 😛

    1. AK ⭐
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      He missed that one though. And he wasn't on pens in this game, he just took it away form Baines.

      1. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks for spoiling my fun 🙁

        1. AK ⭐
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Sorry. 🙂

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Always been a big fan of Who (The original), All creatures and Hitchhikers. Peter was in all 3.

      Should I switch to a football one? 🙂

  12. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    I think everyone will use the Tripple captain chip on the same player, the same week. Seems obvoius to wait for a DGW with Aguero and give him the TC. Making the chip pretty uninteresting.

    1. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Not when you're at my rank 🙂
      And a lot chips used in top 10k, so if you are that high, it will be a great boost, hopefully.

      1. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Well, I´m 26k now, but will probably drop to around 50k-60k tomorrow with no players left and only Lukaku to come on. Is there somewhere we can see who used the chips already?

      2. 5os
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        This. Almost half of the top 10K has already used triple captain so a haul from Aguero on a DGW should give you a good boost.

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Really? Had no idea, that good news if correct 🙂

          1. 5os
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            https://fpldiscovery.wordpress.com/2016/01/16/gw22-team-selection-and-stats/

            Out of the top 10K
            TC: 47.5%
            Bench Boost: 59.8%

            1. Royal5
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Thanks 🙂

    2. Ayew Serious
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Well, the FFS community is a very small part of the FPL numbers

      1. Red Star Toro
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        this. and I wouldn't be so sure there will be DGW for Man City with fully fit Kun and then him scoring in both games. It's still quite random but definitely not uninteresting

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          True I guess. Waiting for a dgw is at least a must imo.

    3. waldo666
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      one of my main ML rivals triple captain Payet this week, not sure what he was thinking as he is usually pretty astute

      1. Don Look Back in Wenger
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        well my main rival capt payet too. and activated bench boost while at it. sad case indeed.

    4. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Someone in my ML used TC on Mahrez this week.

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Ouch

      2. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Ouch...I hope he's finished as a pick. I'm fed up of seeing him in every team...he's become a bore.

    5. Sess!
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I'd rather bench boost for a big DGW.

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Well only for can plan it properly. Otherwise yeah TC.

      2. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Hopefully, there'll be 2 big DGWs. TC on one, BB on the other.

        1. Royal5
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          My thoughts as well.

    How to get Kun into this team with 2FT and 0.9 in the bank ...

    Butland, Hennessey
    Daniels, Moreno, Bellerin, Toby, Dann
    KDB, Ozil, Mahrez, Alli, Payet
    Kane, Lukaku, Ighalo

    Ideas?

    A) Lukaku, KDB -> Kun, Wijnaldum
    B) Lukaku, KDB, Ozil -> Kun, Silva, Wijnaldum (-4)
    C) Other

    1. Aladdin Sané
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      A, but would get a cheap 5th mid unless you want a selection headache every week.

      1. Dr Dream
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        What's wrong with a selection headache ?

        1. Aladdin Sané
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          Less chance of points being left on the bench, in theory.

          1. Dr Dream
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Does that matter ?

            Those with pts on the bench have done very nicely with the Ozil no show. Is it better that they had 1 or 2 pts instead ?

        2. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          This. I never understood the concept of keeping crap on your bench. Strong bench always gives you string options every week. The game should make you think

    2. Jay_
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Mahrez to Watson
        Ighalo to Aguero

        And KDB > A mid depending on what budget you have left, maybe Henderson

      • Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Mahrez > Gosling
        Kane > Aguero

      RMD

      Ballerin, Toby, Fuchs, Moreno, Daniels

      Bit pricey? Would like Cresswell, but maybe next week.

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Meh to Moreno

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          I know... but good fixtures, attacking and potential DGW. I don't mind carrying him for now.

          1. Sess!
            • 15 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Fair enough. Plenty of potential for attacking points on that defence which is good.

            1. Twisted Saltergater
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              An injury to Lukaku would throw a cat amongst the pigeons with Baines back on the scene. Would have to get him and Mirallas just in case 😉

    4. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      After 2 bad weeks I got back up from 77k to 47k, only Ighalo left, how will that affect my position tomorrow?

      Is there an average amount of players left? How many played Ighalo?

      1. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Ighalo owned by about 74% in the top 1K i believe. Some may also have WIlliams, Ayew, Nyom etc, but Ighalo the most owned by far.

      2. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Boost it even more.

    5. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      If Hennessey rises tonight, I'll gain 0.1 SV and take it as a sign it's time to ship him

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        He won't. Been floating arounfb100% for ages now and imagine people will be starting to take him out.

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Your right, just dreaming. WIll likely ship him anyways, with no other move worth doing.

      2. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        He was going to rise the night of the Villa game. That clanger stopped it happening

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Can't remember the exact numbers but I believe he was at 95% or something that night, and now looks to be 99% on FPLS. So some poor sods are still buying him. 😉

    6. Gnu
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Trying to decide who to shift for Aguero - Kane, Lukaku or Giroud.

      2FTs & 4.6m in bank.
      Really wondering if I can live without the wee Kun! 😉

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Giroud for me

        1. Gnu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          He's the obvious one but 3 home games in next 4 and reasonable differential.

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Think I slightly prefer Jags at 5.1m (although he was poor at the weekend). Just back from injury though and should return to form.

      2. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        I'm waiting to see if Everton will be in a DGW; if so I'll buy one, depending on when the DGW is.

        1. Jammy Dodger
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          when do we find out about dgws?

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            WIll know the cup finalist between GW 23 and 24. Then it's just waiting for the FA to annouce when the blank fixture in GW27 will be made up. Could be GW26, could be later

      Will Mirallas keep his spot ?

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Short term, I really do think so. He's my transfer in for Walcott this week if I hear favourable things from Martinez.

        1. Pochecinno
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Nice to know I won't be the only one 🙂

          1. Twisted Saltergater
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Ssshhhhh 🙂

      2. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Short term yes
        Long term depends on how he performs short term

      3. Swan - Villa Proud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        See if Martinez indicates anything, but most here feel he will for the near future.

      4. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Now we're talking!

        He should do for the next couple of games, at least, which is perfect because the fixtures are great

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          See what you started 😉

          1. Pochecinno
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Ayew Serious is the real Godfather of this punt

            1. Ayew Serious
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Only if it comes off

      5. Reeker
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        As an Everton fan. No or at least it's too hard to tell. He should keep the spot because he's our second best winger, but Martinez hasn't been eager to stick him back him. There is also way too much competition for places, and a lot of rotating going on at the moment due to fixtures so we don't really know who he prefers.

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Don't you think he's gone off Kone after conceding 4 home to Stoke? It was the last game Kone started.

          1. Reeker
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Cleverley has been doing well for us on the left, and Martinez was preferring him to Mirallas before he got injured (he was back on the bench on Saturday)

            1. Twisted Saltergater
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 16 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Ah yes, Cleverley. Thanks for that. Hopefully Martinez will stick to attacking for the next 2 homes games and drop Barkley deeper alongside Barry/Besic..

          • 12 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Is Barkley nailed on to start every week? he's currently on of my hybrid 4th/5t mids

          1. Reeker
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Yes. Completely. (Unless he's rested at some point because he's plays every game)

              • 12 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Thanks Reeker 🙂

              1. Reeker
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 12 Years
                10 years, 2 months ago

                Next week is tricky because we have the semi final against City to think about and he may be rested. But even then I would think he should start and get subbed off around the 60 minute mark

        Spurs

      2. Royal5
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Kane

      3. Alittude
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Hmm yeah just about although there's not much in it. I have a strange feeling I should keep ighalo over Kane for some reason, leaves much more to meddle with the rest of the team. Not too keen on loosing Kane either but one has to go for lukaku .

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Looking at todays matches in the members area, were Arsenal really that bad and was Hendo on the Coutinho shoot on site role?

      1. Sess!
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Hendo's shots were poor yes if that's what you're asking.

          • 12 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          essentially yeah, so just stat-boosting, nothing shots?

      2. John t penguin
        • 11 Years

        I reckon Liverpool think it is three pointers in basketball they are trying to get

          • 12 Years

      Could Austin be the new Vardy of the second half of the season?

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        So could he be the old Austin? Maybe. The rotation risk is strong though

      1. Ayew Serious
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        No, because he will be at least 2+ on Vardys price

        1. Birds of Prey
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Austin at 9+ seems high, I would say 8.0 any other estimates?

            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 15 Years

          2. Angin out the Begović
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            7-8

          • 12 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          high 7s is my guess

      2. EmreCan Hustle

        If he's first choice. Yes.

      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      What´s Uniteds plan with Januzaj? Recalled to play or are the loaning him out again? Depay has only scored one more goal for United than him this season.

    14. In Like Flynn.
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I'm hoping I can live without Aguero for the next two GWs to see how City are in away games with him back.
      The fixtures for teams over the next 4-6 are really diverse in difficulty.

      I hope sitting on my hands for the next two won't do too much damage. The League Cup game will also have been played and Round 4 of the FA Cup.

      Anyone else not getting him yet?

      1. Schwarzer
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Nope, I'm getting him in. Watching him vs Palace was painful enough and fairly confident he'll still score in away games.

    15. HammersFan
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      With ozil injured. Kdb playing 2 away games (also chance of being rested). Mahrez out of form and an ok defense.

      Almost tempted to play my wc.

      1. Angin out the Begović
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Ozil will be back next week

        I'm trying to resist, two weeks ago my squad looked fine I can't believe it has suddenly got so bad it requires total rebuilding I'm sure it will turn back in a week or two with an odd tweak here and there, maybe even a hit or two.

          • 12 Years

          haha who needs false hope? It's also lost me and TM our doubles set, we basically went into the Arsenal match with Giroud + Ramsey vs Butland x2 😕 Ah well on to the deciding set!

          Our doubles match is extremely interesting. Odds of Ayew getting more than 3 points? Because it will come down to that if Gomes and Nyom cancel each other out.

            Gomes is better for baps if that has any bearing. 2 or 3 for Ayew is very possible

              We need Gomes to not get any more than Nyom and Ayew to get 3 or less to stay in the tournament.

                Hmmm, this could well go to a goals scored tie breaker.

                  Is it goals scored then? I had assumed it was points on bench. I had better check that it could give us another point to play with.

                    Bugger. We lose that way as well.

        Just messing about and see I can afford this with 0.0 itb for the 'possible' gw25 dgw for City, Liverpool, Everton and Newcastle :

        Mignolet Elliot
        Coleman Moreno Janmaat Toby* Simpson*
        KDB Silva Barkley Firmino Alli*
        Aguero Lukaku Kane*

        * would keep my Spurs and Leicster players as they have good fixtures

        Barr Firmino and Janmaat I could easily take that team into the rest of the season, really hoping we get we get the dgw in 25 for those teams 🙂

          Does this allow for price changes?

          1. Jay_
              10 years, 2 months ago

              No but if not affordable would just lose Mignloet to cheap GK

            I don't think you can have all 4 in the DGW can you?

              you can

                if the cup final is Liv vs City, they're the teams.

                  Ah I had lost track I knew they all had a chance of a DGW

            GW27 equals blanks for those 4.
