J0E After taking a look at the main goal threat from Fantasy Premier League defenders priced at 5.0 and under earlier in the week, we now turn our attentions to the centre of the park.
With the likes of Alexis Sanchez, Eden Hazard and Raheem Sterling high up on our shopping lists after bagging double-figure hauls in Gameweek 3, the need for value in midfield is vital.
This time around, then, we look at the leading contenders in the sub-8.0 bracket over the first three rounds of fixtures.
Have 0.7 itb (wildcarding) Have Bony/ firmino/heaton but could become
I want Mane but can see a route to upgrade keeper.
a) Bony / Mane /Heaton (0.2 itb)
b) Zaza/ Firmino / Cech (0 itb)
thanks

Bony/ firmino/heaton+0.7 itb
Interesting. I'm a big firmino fan
But Mane looks like a wrecking ball out there

Bony, firmino, cech
Firmino will benefi from mane. Ultimately comes down to whether you prefer zaza or bony

Is there a scoutcast this week?
Tonight - see tweets
In 20 min.

Sweet
What game is Mike dean officiating this weekend?
He isn't
boooo
🙁
He was giving too many penalties, so other referees are playing catch up this GW.
Noooo
Riddle:
How many stubborn casuals does it take to about-face on Lukaku because he scored for Belgium?
don't think the casuals pay too much attention to Cyprus-Belgium as not in England's group but could be wrong.. AT Sunderland not the best matchup in the world as SUN have kept it pretty tight at the back, and with no goals in his first three, it's unlikely many will buy him, even if they do drop Aguero - they are more likely to buy Kane, Vardy, Costa and others...
You're not buying him for one match. His underlying stats are terrific.
I went with Aguero to Costa as a) his price was rising b) already owned Barkley c) he was in form and d) an article came out about Lukaku saying he wasn't "sharp" yet.
Of course, that was before tonight and Lukaku's goals, but I was answering the question re: casuals buying Lukaku, not the question re: is Lukaku a good buy. Of course he is, I wish I could play 4 strikers, but for now, I can only play 3, so I went with an in-form Chelsea side at Swansea, who look weaker defensively than Sunderland.
I wouldn't be surprised if Lukaku grabbed 2 goals, he's a quality player, but made my bed and sleeping in it.
No one will take any notice against these lowly minnows
This.
before his brace.

SCOUT SAYS Lukaku is a gamble over Costa but fixtures are strong. With 6.9% ownership, could be a huge differentialFPL added,

£13m on the bench is a waste. Costa or Lukaku but also consider using funds & transfer to invest in Arsenal midfield

I want Valencia in my wildcard but I'm being put of by Mourinhos comments about returning law from international duty.
Need to decide before he rises because annoyingly looks like Shaw won't again now, so I won't gain 0.1 value.
So which one. Valencia or Shaw?
*returning late
Valencia is going to play the whole season. He is very very good so far. Even if he misses one game he'll be one of the highest scoring defenders this year imo
I can't see Valancia not starting. Their defence has been so strong so far so why change it. Plenty players come back late from international duty and play the following w/end
I have both. I'd say valencia will play. Too big a game.
Valencia if you are playing for 35 more gameweeks, not just 1 against City...
This is Mourinho. I wouldn't trust a single word out of his mouth leading up to a Manchester Derby vs his bitter rival.
Valencia starts if you ask me. It's only September, it's not like he's carrying cumulative fatigue from the season and returning late from internationals.
Call me crazy but I don't think Valencia will start vs man city. Too much of a risk. He'll bomb down the flank and leave soo much space for sterling when they lose the ball
No, Mourinho prefers consistency of selection/minimal rotation.
This season's Bellerin mate, buy.
Thanks for all the replies!
I certainly don't think he'll be dropped for tactical reasons, but the day before an early kick of is very late for a return, personally I don't think he will play.
But as someone mentioned over the other 34 weeks I think Valencia will be this seasons highest scoring def.
Kosc
Or
Bellerin
Bellerin
If money not an issue. Bell
Bellers
I think the 0.5 itb is worth the difference
You have too much money, but hey... B
CECH
Bell and Kosc have better chance to get bonus points
Decent wc team or poop?
Foster
Williams mcauley stones
Hazard sterling mahrez fer
Agueto zlatan benteke
Jaku amat love capiue
Aguero is banned...........
No sweat Amat there has it covered
Haha
Sorry i have costa in for aguero for now with the money in bank to reverse move
Jaku and love won't play probably. I'd be swapping mahrez for payet or ozil , probably name actually, with Liverpool's next fixtures. Mahrez off penalties now probably too
What do you think of the WC draft?
Courtios, jakupovic
Stones , Amat , Holgate , Evans, Collins
Coutinho, Sanchez , Lamela , Capoue , Sterling
Ibra , Costa , Negredo
0.9 ITB
Suspect defense. Holgate's place under doubt when coleman returns. Good midfield. Costa seems to be poor in terms of FPL so far just cause of his lack of bonus points.
Maybe a Man Utd defender?
Courtouis to Heaton/Foster to save 1 million?
Could then do Negredo to Benteke?
planning on transfering courtois with de gea after manchester derby thats why i did not put a man united defender. and i dont like having a keeper and a defender from the same team.. what do you think?
and Benteke is on my watchlist, but dont have high hopes on him..waiting the next few game weeks to decide.
i have doubts on Lamela though, might be benched next gameweeks, any decent alternative?
and about Holagate, im thinking of bringing Jagielka after your comment, agree with you.
1. Antonio
2. Lanzini

Hi all...got 1ft and 5.5itb

Very good point mate....
When does Sanchez play?
Tonight
00.30am
Hazard goal
WOOOOO
He's essential... 😆
Am I playing with fire having Collins in my team, or is he just about nailed??
Thanks
Fire
In team at moment. Wasn't guaranteed for Hammers last year, is getting on a bit.
long term, not nailed
short term, next 2/3 weeks?? Thanks
fire
He is a worry until we see more, yes but you might be okay.
Hi Guys
im confused about bains points (7) when CS and assist +2 thanks
Missed a penalty and got an assist for an own goal 6-2+3=7 😉
Any chance of Lukaku or Ozil rising in price before the weekend?
Ozil may be tomorrow
perhaps tonight
Lukaku is mile away from a rise
Cheers
Ozil - yes - probably tomorrow night
Lukaku - maybe later in the week but not guaranteed
http://www.fplstatistics.co.uk/
Ozil looks very likely on percentage
Lukaku may get a boost now
A) Baines and Pickford
B) Williams and Heaton
(Already have foster)
A
a
Yup that's what I thought. Happy enough playing Foster every week
Will there be a link on here for scoutcast, or search via YouTube?
Thanks in advance.
Search Fantasy Football Scout on YouTube. The link is up 🙂
Cheers Berbs. Top man.
this is great news to pass an hour in the airport! 🙂
1. Cazorla nailed?
2. Sterling vs Barkley vs Antonio?

what a talent
Final decision now...
A) Zaza (punt)
B) Lukaku (have Barkley)
See my question below. Like for like Lukaku. But zaza gives you 2m
B
A. Bony. Lukaku. Antonio / Lamela. Ozil. Mane
B. Benteke. Zaza. Sterling. Alexis. Firmino
A involved a wildcard now. B involves accepting a -8 already taken
Congratulations Belarus, awesome result
With the flust of mid priced forward options suddenly available, Lukaku back in form on a kind Everton schedule, and Aguero a must have when back - are you finally prepared to go without Ibra?
Here's a different idea! Because you need do two transfers to get Aguero back in anyways, I figured an attempt to maximize probable team output the next two GWs, while still get back to some sort of long-term plan (which is likely to fail, but that's the game folks ;-)).
Heaton - Pickford
Valencia - Williams/Baines - Evans - Holebas - Amat
Nolito/Sterling - Ozil - Sanchez - Hazard - Lanzini
Lukaku + 13.5-14.5 ish to spend on two forwards
Gw4: Sanchez (C) All out attack,
Gw6: Sanchez -> 4.5. 6.0-6.5 -> Aguero (C)
Gw 7-10 misc options: Nolito/Sterling to Liverpool and Defoe to Bony as fixtures easens, Snodgrass in at some point.
Thoughts, or is this too "locked/forced"?
Wouldn't dream of going double arsenal
It's too "i support arsenal " for me
I dont support Arsenal, but two really good fixtures. Think a combo of Sanchez and Ozil can outscore pretty much anyone else those 2 GWs. Sanchez is not a long term thing, cant really afford Haz+Sanchez+Aguero+Ibra/Lukaku+one other mid priced mid....:/
Sorry....what is my best here with my ft 5.5itb....
A.....ramirez to sanchez
B....ramirez to ozil (who I'll want on gw6 wildcard...so getting now avoids price rise....
Foster jaku
Valencia stones friend kone amat
Hazard firmino lamela ramirez capoue

B. If it helps with the kun plan.
Though alexis is a viable captain for next two weeks
A until Aguero is back then reassess
Best midfielder for up to 6.5

Ramirez
Bolasie
Townsend

What about Lansing or luncheon?
want to make a couple of changes and take a hit of -4 and save WC later. What are people's thoughts on taking point hits?
