Our next members article of the week takes a closer look at goal threat from the back. We focus on Fantasy Premier League defenders priced at 5.0 or below as we delve into the Opta data in an attempt to seek out value in our five-man backlines.
with everyone talking about costa's record against Swansea isn't he a very decent shout for this weeks captain?? i like him over Sanchez
hazard is a issue though
Sanchez and Hazard for me.
How good is Diomande as a 3rd striker?
perfect for a 352 spare stirker, plays and is cheap
Is he nailed on?
Right now he is, unless Mbokani plays over him
Hull now have Keane and Mbokani as competition, so I'd say he's a rotation risk
Risky
Cheers guys! I have 1.0 ITB. Tell me a good one less than 5.5.
They also have Hendriksen
A good one under 5.5?
Stuani
I hope Gray doesent get banned as ive done my team not to use wildcard and if h is banned it may push me over the edge
I hope Gray does get banned because what he tweeted was disgusting
A lot changes in 4 years.
The comments were still there available to read in his social media. I think a retrospective ban is justifiable.
It was 4 years ago. Ridiculous to ban him now.
Agree completely
Similar reasoning would set free Rolf Harris 🙁
You shouldn't compare legal proceedings and a fa ban
Gray is extremely lucky legal proceedings have not been brought against him.
It fell into the category of a hate crime 4 years ago, and still does to this day.When he tweeted those comments he was 21 years old, an adult.
While it might be that he's only getting an FA charge because his profile has increased, what kind of a message does it send letting him off with a warning? And Clump has a fair point, why should it be acceptable because he said it "when he was a different person"?
this.
Exactly, he was old enough. Didn't even bother to remove the tweets or make a new account. Things can change in 4 years, but they usually don't.
great point!
Took a minus 8 for this

Take the -8 or WildCard?Good if Gray doesn't get the ban.
WC and get rid of Gray, Ramirez and Stones.

I knew managers made good money, but I just read that Guardiola makes a whopping £290'000 / week. That should be enough to put food on the table.
Dont think it will be just food, it will be a whole Buffet
Certainly gives him a few more tapas options
food and cocaine
Redmond to Antonio for 0.9mill worth it?
Rondon, Benteke or Bony?Benteke
Ozil / sterling / nolito / cazorla

Sterling
Anybody keen for a gamble on Ihaenacho whilst Kun is out?
His goals per minute ratio is unreal.Don't expect him to get any points at OT
It is indeed. It's whether Pep plays Nolito in a false 9 that worries me.
He looks a cracking shout if he starts though.Really really considered it
His goal/min ratio is insane
the only problem is his game time
Pep loves to play False 9
I might GW5.
I'm thinking to take Aguero out and Lukaku/Costa in. However, another option is to also take Redmond out and Sanchez in. Since I only have 1 FT, the second option will cost me 4 points. So the second option is only profitable if Sanchez gets 5 points more than Redmond.
So which one would you do?
A. Aguero --> Costa/Lukaku
B. Aguero + Redmond --> Lukaku + Sanchez (-4)Is this attack a bit light? Waiting for Kun to be back.
Hazard Sanchez Barkley Antonio (Capoue)
Ibra Benteke DefoeLooks good.
I think everyone attack looks lightweight without aguero
Nowt wrong with that.
not light in size as well as points for sure
Cheers guys
So the outcome of a formal hearing is that Gray is playing this weekend?
apart from agueros 50 points haul vs Newcastle what is the highest score ppl hv got in 1 gw from 1 player?
Berbatov 50 pts (c)
Defoe and berbatov both scored 5 in a match (2009,2011)
TC Sanchez in the DGW
Aguero TC 25 x 3 = 75
GW34.
3 points more, I believe he got 26 in GW 34 and Sanchez 25.
Good times.
Walcott 26 x 2 = 52 vs newcastle (before the TC chip was available)
This. I miss newcastle. biggest hauls have been against them.
Yeah Walcott 26 points!
Hi Everyone, can I get your thoughts on this please:
Remove one
A) Stones
B) Morgan
Replace with
1) Baines
2) WilliamsB1
Morgan to baines
Want to fit Bainsey in. Pick one of these-
A. Heaton Baines leko(non playing 4.4 mid)
B. Mandanda Baines Rodwell
C. Foster Williams Capoue (no Baines)B
Not worried about a fit again Hennessy for B?
C looks the better optionboth A and B have risks, 4.4 mid in A and Mandanda in B
I'd go for C. Capoue an excellent 5th mid
Re the Gray case
"No date has yet been set for that hearing, with the FA last night saying one will be arranged ‘in due course’.
But their own guidelines say that all case papers for personal hearings ‘must be distributed to the participant and the commission members at least three days prior to the hearing’.
That would rule out the possibility of a hearing taking place before the weekend, and the visit of the Tigers to Turf Moor."
2FTs, 0.0m in the bank... Would you wildcard this lot?

Keep your WC. Thank me later.
Aguero Alli Ramirez ..Out
Costa Sanchez Snodgrass In
-4Save
Save. You can do mini WC for -4.
Nolito with a 3 assists last night i am sure. Hes getting harder to ignore.
Stop giving me headaches!
Lol i am the same. Watched the spain highlights and was like wtf hes essential. Even Silva looked amazing with a brace.
playing very avg / poor opposition though...
Gen. question -- how much time ppl spend on ffs daily?
On the train for 15mins on way to work.
15 mins on ma lunch break.
Wee half hour at night. Not every night.10 minutes
Too much.
What is this ffs please?

A or B guys 🙂
A
Payet or Ozil? Already have Sanchez
Payet
He will play right?
maybe on the left
I meant is he nailed on? thanks
sorry just trying to be funny... he'll play yeah
Mane & Williams vs. Firmino & Baines?
I think B will score more long term.
The former for me. Mr explosive & Mr Bonus magnet.
A
B
Would you play Kone (EVE) or McAuley (bou) this weekend?
Mcauley
walker looked great vs Slovakia .... think he Valencia and baines can be a great defense pairing this season.....
That will be a costly defence, go for Williams -> Baines, you might save yourself a few bucks.
I know but its looks very good imo
Thoughts on Lamela? Do you guys think he still is nailed on with the arrival of Sissoko? Could he be rested at the weekend, because he gets back late from international duties?
i think he could be rested, especially with the CL game next week too.... i 90% sure im gonna transfer him out for antonio
Morning all!
What do you guys think of my wildcard draft?
Jaku-Pickford -
Kingsley - Pieters - Valencia - Williams - Galloway
Haz- Ozil - Snoddy - Capoue - Mane
Ibra- Kane- Tekkers
What do you guys think? & what should I do differently ? Thanks in advance
don't put pieters in until Saturday morning if you want him may drop to 4.4 by then. coleman played today for ireland so galloway most likely goneskie. ditto for kingsley with naylor playing today for wales
Is pieters nailed?
And what about collins?I believe both of them are. Collins until he makes a mistake 😉
Galloway doesn't play for Everton anymore, you meant Holgate is goneskie now that Coleman is back?
oh sorry yeah my bad galloway at Brom. evans probably more nailed at that price for brom
Wilshere or Redmond?
Redmond.
Adnan.
think adnan can outscore redmond?
Thanks Guys, adnan would give me extra funds
Can't believe that everyone is ignoring Josh king .....
is holgate still a likely starter??
Doubt it! Although he did play pretty well. But Coleman is first choice, no doubt.
Alexis, son, you better not get injured today.
He won't, he'll score a brace, come back to UK and score another brace! He's not human, he's a goal machine!! 😉
