        I just saw the article picture 🙂

        1. KeepCalm

          Oh I thought if it was something interesting, it would've made a transfer headache a lot easier

            The whole article is interesting tbh.

              if only a peasant could see...

    2. I Member

      Will take more than one game to convince me he's a good option at that price.

    Johnny Evans 75% chance of playing? When did this happen?

      As if Johnny Evans is ever injured 😉

    Burnley knocked out of League Cup by Accrington Stanley. First proper upset.

    1. Norman Conquest

      who are they

  4. Bubz

    Very tempted indeed to captain Hazard

    1. Greenbackbøøg…
      10 years, 1 month ago

      That ruined my life last GW

    2. Kante Be Bothered
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Might do the same

  5. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Wilson is -95.5 on Fpl Stats probability of him dropping ?

    1. ChelseaKTBFF
      10 years, 1 month ago

      95.5%

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        10 years, 1 month ago

        Don't be sensible.

    2. BadgersBoys
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Can't see him dropping tonight.

  6. Nanoelektronicar
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Fear from price drop made me do 3 transfers this week for a hit:
    1) Tadic to Redmond
    2) Gray to Benteke
    3) Firmino to Barkley (-4)

    A) This will cost me dearly
    B) It won't matter much
    C) It will pay off

    1. ChelseaKTBFF
      10 years, 1 month ago

      No benteke move, do 1+3 for free

    2. I Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. nkhoughton
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I'd have Firmino before barkley without a shadow of doubt

    4. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      B or C - peckers up

    5. Backup Dancer

      B

    6. Iceball
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Somewhere between A and B

  7. tm245

    My captain is featured, nice.

  8. meltedman
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    If anyone knows, at least a day too early here but....

    When is Man City's press conference?

    I might just get Sterling tonight for Alli, if it's on a Friday. Not looking like rising tonight but it's close enough to be worried about 0.1 slipping away.

  9. nkhoughton
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Is Firmino definitely dropping tonight?

    1. I Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Not definitely but probably.

    2. Elijah's Wood
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Seems that way, over -100% on fplstats

      1. nkhoughton
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Hope not already brought him in haha, hopefully he proves the people who ditched him wrong

        1. Elijah's Wood
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Ouch, bad time to bring in lol. Im sure Liverpool will kick into gear after a disapointing trip to Burnley but i dont want to suffer the drop in TV

  10. Vatroslav
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Have 2FT, what should I do with my front 8?

    Hazard Eriksen Capoue Townsend Redmond
    Aguero Ibra Gray

    0.0itb

    1. Gooner Kebab
      10 years, 1 month ago

      get an EVE player?

      1. Vatroslav
        10 years, 1 month ago

        I'm really keen on Bolasie, but I don't think he's nailed on. Eriksen a better option than Barkley imo

    2. ChelseaKTBFF
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Get an EVE defender

      1. Vatroslav
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Got Williams

  11. Defcons are for Kinnear
    10 years, 1 month ago

    What's the lowest TV can get? I reckon by now someone could be on 90m

    1. ChelseaKTBFF
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Well he'd have to be pretty stupid to get that

      1. Defcons are for Kinnear
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Requires dedication. Similar concept to highest TV teams

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

      You could lose over 1 million a day recently.

    3. Tatty Bojangles
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I'm aiming for £0.0m and a £3.6m rank by GW38.

    4. Defcons are for Kinnear
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I calculate about 65m is the lowest TV possible.
      7x4m (after drops)
      9x4.5m (after drops)

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Wrong.

  12. Elijah's Wood
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Best Firmino replacement as he's dropping tonight:

    A) Barkley/Miralles
    B) Pogba
    C) Mane
    D) Sterling/Nolito
    E) Ozil
    F) Mahrez

    1. I Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      E

      1. Elijah's Wood
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks Bane, looked lively for the few minutes he played

    2. Gooner Kebab
      10 years, 1 month ago

      tough lot, anyone would be a good pick

      1. Elijah's Wood
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Haha i know, BUT WHO?!

        Dont get the Barkley love, blows too hot and cold but got off to a great start last year as did Lukaku.

        Ozil looked good but slowly being swayed by Nolito, but then that's 3 City players

        1. Gooner Kebab
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Ozil for me, but i'm probably biased.

    3. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B or E for me.

      1. Elijah's Wood
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Thanks Worzel, surprised there's not more Everton love on this page actually, seems to be the flavour of the week.

    4. Hurricane Gilbert
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I'm going B. Can't resist the hype/stats anymore. Everything points in his direction: form, increasing attacking role, stats, fixtures, incoming bandwagon, positive energy, Zlatan partnership etc.

      1. Elijah's Wood
        10 years, 1 month ago

        I do kind of feel the same way as the Scouts did by passing his enthusiasm and roaming rights to adrenaline and trying to prove himself at OT. He did look really incredible though.

        1. Hurricane Gilbert
          10 years, 1 month ago

          And why wouldn't he build on from that performance? He is purely class, that Soton-performance was not a one-off adrenaline induced thing.

          1. Elijah's Wood
            10 years, 1 month ago

            Soton were awful defensively in the second half, but i do agree. Love watching him play, even for France he got points. Thanks HG! Probably my transfer.

      Depends on your budget

      1. Elijah's Wood
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Got £9.5m to spend

        1. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Mane or Ozil

          1. Elijah's Wood
            10 years, 1 month ago

            Thanks Kitchen

    6. tm245
      10 years, 1 month ago

      E and F if you have the cash, otherwise B.

      1. Elijah's Wood
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Lots of Pogba love, has the member's article swayed opinions perhaps? :p

        1. tm245
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Must be the picture.

        2. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          10 years, 1 month ago

          Many wearing red, white and black blinkers. Let's wait until he scores some decent fantasy points before slathering.

    7. Spot on no bother
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling

  13. Flynny
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Got 1.4m and one ft.....but plan on saving it until after int break...

    Will probably want benteke for suspended gray.

    Am I good to go here or anything urgent?

    Amat coming in should friend be unfit....

    Foster (jaku )
    Valencia stones friend (amat kone)
    Hazard firmino lamela ramirez (capoue )
    Kun ibra gray

    Thanks

    1. ChelseaKTBFF
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Firmino is dropping, friend is apparently injured.

      1. Flynny
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Think I am willing to take the firmino drop....

        Or is that a seriously bad move...

        Could get ozil but think makes sense to keep 2 till after int break???

        1. ChelseaKTBFF
          10 years, 1 month ago

          You could WC early in the break

  14. tm245
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Once the prices have started to change, I really don't think a 0.1m rise or fall is that big a deal. If you are priced out of someone because of the drop then theoretically you are priced into the bracket of someone who is on the rise, likely because they are doing well.

  15. Hybrid.power
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Swap Eriksen for Barkley or stick? I have two free transfers burning a hole in my pocket

    1. ChelseaKTBFF
      10 years, 1 month ago

      It is certainly the flavour of the week

    2. FPL_Crisis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      For a free transfer it makes sense. I'm contemplating for a hit but that's a bit reckless

  16. tm245
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Cool analysis about Shaw. Best weekly article on this site, for sure.

  17. Delhidynamo
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Lucas Perez to Arsenal might really be happening..

  18. Thunder Warrior
    10 years, 1 month ago

    How long is Manone ruled out?

  19. Pigsinblankets
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Foster
    Fuchs Valencia Stones Friend
    Hazard Redmond Lamela Firmino
    Aguero Zlatan Gray

    A) Firmino -> Barkley +1FT
    B) Firmino + Gray -> Coutinho + Negredo
    C) Firmino + Fuchs/Stones -> Mane + Someone
    D) None of the above

    1. Norman Conquest
      10 years, 1 month ago

      just do firm to barks this week wait until after internationals and see who survives before changing anyone else

    2. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…

    Mkhi at 9.2 after tonight could be interesting

    1. Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Only if he starts getting some game time soon

    2. Norman Conquest
      10 years, 1 month ago

      im itching for him to play regularly looks class he will be cheap as chips by the time mou gets round to giving him a decent run

    3. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      If he plays more than 20 mins it will. Bizarre treatment by Moaninho

      1. Norman Conquest
        10 years, 1 month ago

        he will split his squad into 2 teams once the cup games kick in so we will see then where he prefers him

    4. BabyB
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Only if he plays

    5. Gooner Kebab
      10 years, 1 month ago

      who he replacing from the starting 11? mata?

      1. Norman Conquest
        10 years, 1 month ago

        more than likely

      Man Utd lucky again

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        10 years, 1 month ago

        A young lad called Gorre loaned from Swansea to Northampton who scored the winning penalty against WBA was quoted saying he wanted Man U next !

  22. Tiamani Warrior
    10 years, 1 month ago

    I'm still optimistic that Gray can score more than Negredo over the season but its very frustrating to see Negredo price rocketing and Gray to potentially fall if suspended over the Int Break

    1. Mull
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Some of us had Carroll last week.

    2. HuttonDressedasLahm
      10 years, 1 month ago

      I sold Gray over Negredo in order to get Ibra, so I'm happy

    3. Salah’s Sonnet
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Let him rise, he'll only fall again lol

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        10 years, 1 month ago

        When he looks like falling owners can sell and buy Gray and pocket the difference 😉

    4. Eden Hazardous
      10 years, 1 month ago

      What if Negredo outscores Gray over the season?

  23. MFPL
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Seeing that Firmino is close to dropping, it may be time to move him on, but who for?
    A) Townsend
    B) Sterling (already have Aguero)
    C) Antonio
    D) Any other suggestion

    1. Pigsinblankets
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Barkley? Coutinho?

      1. MFPL
        10 years, 1 month ago

        Have Barkley, not sure about Coutinho.
        Thank you for the suggestions though!

  27. DV8R
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Selling Firmino tonight for a FT. Who to replace him?

    A) Barkley
    B) Pogba
    C) Someone else

    1. Worzel Gummidge
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B

    2. Buck The Trent
      10 years, 1 month ago

      A is populat

    3. Fingerspitzengefühl
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Townsend, okay/good underlying stats and will benefit from Benteke. Spare cash could be used for a Lukaku move the week after...

  28. Kered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Over the short term and possible price rises without using WC next couple weeks. Who is my best option to replace Pieters with?
    0.5 ITB
    A) Stones
    B) Williams

    1. Big Hippo
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Williams. Cracking fixtures

    2. ⚽️ Barry Chocolate ⚽ï…
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 1 month ago

      B

    3. Hotdogs for Tea
      10 years, 1 month ago

      Stones to fall soon, attacking stats are poor too for a 'footballing CH'

  29. Big Hippo
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Ramirez (wba) or Capoue (ARS) for this week?

  30. THE Wild Rover
    10 years, 1 month ago

    Don't worry if not a member, there will be a more detailed repost on FPL 😉
