After Everton’s 4-0 hammering of Man City at Goodison, we head over to Old Trafford for the final match of Gameweek 21.

As expected, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has recovered from illness to take his place in the Man United starting XI against Liverpool.

The most captained player for this round of fixtures, United’s frontman has been handed the armband by over 18% of Fantasy Premier League managers on the back of nine goals and four assists in his last nine league outings.

With the schedule smiling kindly on Jose Mourinho’s men from next week onwards, Paul Pogba – with two goals and a pair of assists in five – has the chance to stake a claim for a place in our five-man midfields.

Jurgen Klopp, meanwhile, opts against starting Philippe Coutinho for the first time since Gameweek 13 and names the fit-again playmaker on the bench instead.

Recovered from an ankle injury, the Brazilian is second only to Dele Alli for transfers in for midfielders since yesterday’s deadline passed, rising in price to 8.3 overnight.

With a plum home clash against Swansea up next, we’re keeping a keen eye on the Reds’ main men, with Adam Lallana and Roberto Firmino handed the wide roles on either side of Divock Origi as Daniel Sturridge warms the bench along with Coutinho.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Ok peeps. Be interested to hear comments on this idea (I'm sure I'm not the first!). Seems to me that 4-5-1 maybe the way forward, at least with my TV. Just such a struggle with cheap players who you don't want and always then end up playing an Allen, Capoue, anichebe etc etc. now I know the instant answer is "defenders score less than MFs CFs". Well, I'm not sure the cheapos do score more, and.... if you can have 4/5 defenders that aren't really defenders surely that solves the issue anyway. So...my team suggestion (105.4 Tv)

    Comments and player suggestions welcome!

    GK. Heaton and foster (pair nicely)
    DEF. Baines Rose. Alonso. Brunt walker
    MF Alli Phillips. Sanchez. Hazard. Cout
    CF. Crouch. Ibra. Barnes

    0.1 itb....

    Thoughts please!!

    1. George Sillett
      • 10 Years

      One less heavy hitting Def and mid . Get rid of Barnes , get Kane , sorted. Could play any formation with that lot . Gives you ultimate week to week versatility

    2. The Bandit
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Plausible but I love a goal more than a clean sheet 🙂

    3. Nomar
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Heaton is all you need. get his handcuff, Robinson for £4.0 Instead.

      1. gunner 2727

        ''Tis a luxury for sure... but money no use anywhere else really!

    4. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years

      don't like 4-5-1

      cleansheets are unstable, i'd switch to a 4-4-2 if possible

    5. Yank Revolution
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Ok, first off, love you GK pair - but two Spurs D is too much...and too much spent on the back line. With a couple hits (Walker or Rose or even Baines/Alonso out mebbe), can't you pour that into one of your front two (Crouch or Barnes out) to pair w Ibra?

      1. gunner 2727
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        In reply to all the above, and I getya... the point is that those defenders assist and score so don't rely on cleaners, and if I put back in a second big gun up top everything changes . But I'm feeling that not a lot of love for the idea!!

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          It's just not the way to do well in FPL. Strikers and offensive minded MFs score goals and goals get points, so, that's where you spend your funds...it's that simple. Assists and Cleanies are so much more unpredictable, so you downgrade their importance further by not paying for them.

          Capiche?

          1. gunner 2727
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            That's cool and of course I understand the the principle you mention. But don't tell me alli hazard Sanchez Phillips and coutinho ibra don't offer that, and you can't have two of those generally with ibra and Kane. And also means can field 11 top draw players with no real "dogs". My team current is below so hopefully that shows I get it! Cheers for the reply!

      2. gunner 2727
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        This isn't my team! It's a suggestion

        Team is

        Foster Randolph
        Baines Pieters jones Alonso brunt
        Haz Sanchez alli Phillips cook
        Aguero ibra Barnes

        Cheers for all your comments!

            • 10 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            All opinions welcome lol! I would say in my defence that team has gone 78.88 79,82 in last 4 GWs and 7 green arrows on the spin. Aguero needs to go tho

    6. @fpl_phenom

      like this a lot!

    7. Snevitz

      9 years, 3 months ago

      This team looks fine to me and i like the idea, it just doesn't normally maximise points. You could swap Rose, Hazard and Barnes for Chambers, Defoe and Alli and play 4,5,1 which i think will return more points.
      Do whatever you think right though, my wildcard last week was criticised and I scored over 100 this week.

      1. Snevitz
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Sorry, you will then have the option to play 352, 442 or 451 depending on the fixtures

    8. Legomane
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      3/10 (max allowed for any team including Hazard) 🙂

    9. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I would like it more with one spurs at back sold for Daniels to have more fixture versatility. Hazard is too expensive- maybe Pedro or Stanislas; One better forward upgrade to transfer in for fixtures and injuries. If Ibra gets hurt, you are taking multiple hits to improve.

      1. gunner 2727
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        All very interesting! Agree hazard is an obvious target, I'm always reluctant to let go as immediately scores twice, also Chelsea had very few pens and if he's up front I can see some hauls coming very quickly, certainly won't seek before hull game

    10. diesel001
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Heaton - Jaku
      Baines - Rose - Alonso - Jones - Amat
      Alli - Sanchez - Pedro - Coutinho - Phillips
      Ibra - Lukaku - Defoe

      If you have a bit in the bank then upgrade Amat.

      1. gunner 2727
        • 10 Years

        Like that!

  5. Cojiro

    So, Holgate. How nailed is he and how long is that likely to continue?

    1. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Not nailed. Will play from time to time.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years

      Different formations depending on opposition.

      1. Mr Wizard
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        this

      2. Cojiro
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        That's what I feared. Better off doing Holebas to Williams u reckon?

        1. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I just did Holebas to Chambers (cheap, plays, gets bonus, decent fixtures) and pocketed a few...

          1. Cojiro
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Already own chambers

        2. Mr Wizard
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Try get Baines or Coleman if you can.

          1. Cojiro
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            I can't if I want to do Firmino to Erik the following week

            1. Yank Revolution
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              I wouldnt run out to get a Toffee D that isn't Baines, so, hold I guess...

              1. Kiwivillan
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 12 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                Coleman better. Baines just has penalties

                1. Yank Revolution
                  • 14 Years
                  9 years, 3 months ago

                  That's a BIG difference.

                2. Mr Wizard
                  • 15 Years
                  9 years, 3 months ago

                  this

  6. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Costa to Lukaku or Kane(have Alli)

    1. Winks Club
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Kane (pens and great long term fix's)

      1. Whats the Mata?
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        You think they'll score city away?

        1. Bunk Moreland
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          If Everton scored 4....

          1. Whats the Mata?
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Was at home though...tot face away..

        2. Winks Club
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Spurs are in a great form and the transfer would be for long term

    2. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I am going Luka. Great run of games!

      1. Whats the Mata?
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        The worry is that Kane will rise atleast 0.3m more...will be difficult to get him later...

        1. ILOVEBAPS
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Kane won't rise .3 methinks.

      2. Mr Wizard
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Lukaku is essential with his run of games.

        1. Winks Club
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          No he isn't, he doesn't even shoot penalties

          1. Mr Wizard
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Palace concede for fun.
            they looked in form today
            great Everton cover with their fixtures
            Captain material for next week!

            1. Winks Club
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 3 months ago

              still not essential with Zlatan and Kane in form

              1. Mr Wizard
                • 15 Years
                9 years, 3 months ago

                aye...

                he is mate.

          2. @fpl_phenom
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            is baines essential so? seriously like... im thinking of bringing him in for great run of fixtures

        2. Yank Revolution
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Not really. In fact, he tends to struggle vs weaker teams.

    3. Wetdream
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Depends what you could do with the extra 1.7m ?

  7. Jusagoras
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Which do you prefer?

    a) Kun + Capoue
    b) Kane + Stanislas (-4)
    c) Lukaku + Coutinho (-4)

    1. Mr Wizard
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      c - all day

    2. DaddyPig
      • 11 Years

      I've got B and it's working out nicely for me!

    Well that was a fun weekend.

    How did we all get on? I must admit I was fearing the worst after that Spurs game.

    1. Cojiro
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Just below top 10k average and therefore expecting a red arrow.

    2. Whats the Mata?
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Andy who do u think has a vetter chance of startin this weekend?
      Costa or Giroud?

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Going to need more news tbh - too early to say

        1. Whats the Mata?
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          @nd Who do you prefer now?
          Kane or Lukaku?

    3. Greenbackbøøg…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      88 points no Kane, finally things worked

    4. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      A much needed boost, but still a long way on the road to recovery...

    5. UnitedFan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      84 (-8).

      Did Alonso to Walker, but it could have been worse as Walker got a clean sheet and assist and that transfer allowed me to do Benteke to Defoe which worked out. Only 3 players blanked so happy with that.

      1. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I did Alonso +Willian - Brunt + Alli, for a hit. Only cost 25pts.

    6. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Good, except I don't own Alonso. So I lost 30 points to ML leader but I can't complain about 75 points.

    7. Business Cat
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      97(-4), gatecrashed the top 10K...yay 🙂

        Nice work.

    8. Adam West - Team Serbia for…

      • 10 Years

      Well done with Crouch Andy. Stuff of legend

      84 here already used FT to get Kane. Debating Kun to Lukaku for a hit

      1. andy85wsm

    11. ILOVEBAPS

      86 -4 and another -3 from McAuley. Grrrr....
      All hail mighty Alonso!

    12. Blue&White85
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      98. I was heading for 100 until Utd scored and Firmino good booked. Can't complain though.

    13. Adz87
      • 9 Years

      Pretty bad, knocked out the cup on goals conceded haha

    14. Yank Revolution

      Monster 109 here...my best week of the season...too bad we couldn't put Liverpool away today.

    15. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years

      92 without Kane

    16. SC not pearls before swine
      • 15 Years

      115 😯

      All downhill from here

    17. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      87-8

      Speaking of Crouch...

      I went 352 during the week and penny pinching I decided to go for Barnes over Crouch. Crouch had better returns lately, but I thought 3rd striker is only gonna be bench fodder, so why spend more?

      And then the Costa thing happened and didn't fancy playing Barnes and went Costa > Giroud for -8. And then even captained Giroud, maybe as a crazy way to justify the extra hit, would have just stuck to Alexis if no Giroud.

      Its interesting because I read Jay's interview, about trying to avoid hits and going with the flow of what the game presents you with. So playing Crouch would have saved me 4 points on the hit and Crouch actually out scored Giroud too and Sanchez would still have been captain...

    18. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      101 (-12) here. I don't want to sound greedy but it could be much better. Daniels let me down big time.

      1. Philman
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, Smith's big fat zero for me trumps your 1 point Daniels 🙁

    19. Philman
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      103, and saved an FT to boot. Into top 5k 🙂

      1. Yank Revolution

      kane alonso

      1. Mr Wizard
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        bit counter intuitive

    3. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      do we need to drop giroud?

      why would you drop alonso

  10. Bunk Moreland
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    What is my priority:

    A) Aguero > Lukaku (already own Zlatan, Kane)
    B) Allen > Philips (4th mid)

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      B

    2. Winks Club
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      B

    3. Bunk Moreland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Cheers guys, was always planning to make that move but Aguero feels like a waste of a striker spot with Lukaku in form and with good fixtures.

    4. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      A all day... aguero and city are not at it

  11. lordkippe
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    A : Lovren + Save FT
    B : Baines
    C : Coleman
    D : Brunt
    E : Other defenders @5.5 or less ?

  12. CelticBhoy1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years

    Coutinho or Firmino?

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years

      Couts

    2. dunas_dog

      Coutinho

    3. Bunk Moreland

      Did you see the match?

  13. Mr Wizard
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Grant Jakupovic
    Lovren Brunt Holgate Chambers Ake'
    Sanchez Lallana Philips Alli Fletcher
    Ibra Giroud Aguero

    1FT 1.9 ITB

    A) Aguero -> Kane
    B) Giroud -> Lukaku
    C) Other
    D) Save

    Thanks!

  14. FPLAdmiral
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    A solid 82 this week soured a little as I took Alonso out on my WC!

    0.1m ITB, 1FT. No idea what to do - any suggestions chaps?

    Heaton
    Brunt, Daniels, Baines
    Alexis, Hazard, Phillips, Stanislas
    Ibra, Defoe, Giroud*

    (Jakupovic)(Alli, Rose, M.Wilson)

    1. Paul
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Alli and Rose on bench!!!

      u serious???? :O

      1. FPLAdmiral
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I know!

        BUT Bournemouth and West Brom have Watford and Sunderland at home!

        1. Business Cat
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Surely bench Defoe the, not Alli

          1. RamaJama
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            Defoe scores every match

    2. aleksios
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      if Giroud is fit ,save

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

      Easy save mate. Fabulous team.

    4. Mr Wizard
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      niiice team.

      Giroud to Lukaku if the friday pressers say he wont make the match

      1. FPLAdmiral
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks, looking at that move but would need to be for a hit due to price difference with Giroud and Lukaku! Might be worth playing Alli then doing that move for free the next week!

  15. Smoky Johnson
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone else still holding on to Costa until press conference on friday afternoon?

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Yep

      1. Smoky Johnson
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Great to hear!

    2. Epic Fail

      Quite a few are.

    3. Jamin
      • 15 Years

      Think so. Will have no nails left tho

    4. Toast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      So far

    5. Mr Wizard
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      not with the alternatives firing..

      Giroud, Lukaku, kane and Ibra

    6. MTPockets
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Think so, but feels like a mistake.

    7. For Fuchs Sake
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Pickford Grant
      Jones Pieters Holebas Amat McAuley
      Alli Sanchez Hazard Phillips Capoue
      Ibra Giroud Benteke

      My defence can probably last one more week. Is Giroud likely to be out next week??

      1. George James
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Benteke needs to go mate. Rest looks good

    8. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Lost on last:

      Heaton (Grant)
      Rose | Brunt | Friend (PVA, Lenihan)
      Sanchez | Alli | Eriksen | Stanislas | Phillips
      Defoe | Ibra (Giroud)

      1a. If Giroud recovers, whom to bench?
      1b. If he doesn't, good to go or drop him for..? And same question from 1a then.
      2. Which GK to play? Currently on Heaton for saves if nothing else.

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        interesting choices on whom to bench. I think maybe you should hope for a giroud 1 week recovery break

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Whom would you bench otherwise? PVA away to WBA seemed like a no-brainer, Lenihan is fodder and Giroud is currently on the bench simply by virtue of the injury.

      2. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Stanislas bench.
        Good to go if Giroud not fit.
        Heaton to play

        1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Stan bench home to WAT?

    9. Sonic Huth

      Who wants Pep to rage quit in front of the press while screaming "I made Messi"

      1. Smoky Johnson
        • 9 Years

        o/

      2. The Bandit

        I want him to be rage sacked

      3. Business Cat
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Arguably, Messi made him

        lol cant wait for MOTD

    10. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I see Pickford close to drop and Jakupovic close to rise. Worth a free transfer or just wait it out for Pickford recovery? Moyes said possibly another 3-4 weeks. Heaton my main keeper.

      1. Smoky Johnson
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Keep heaton+pickford

      2. ILOVEBAPS
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Leave it. Forget the drop

    11. Toast
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Typical! Costa dropping in price tonight and the transfers I want to do leave me with no money in the bank. Do it now or wait and see

      Costa ➡ Lukaku
      Ake ➡ Baines

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I would.

      2. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I just bought the same two in for Aguero and Ake so it's a yes from me

      3. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Yes go for it

      4. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Jump on it

      5. Mr Wizard

        no brainer with Everton playing palace next.

      6. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years

        do it now

    12. EDEN THE MAN
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Heaton-Pickford
      Alonso-Walker-Pieters-Chambers-Amat
      Sanchez-Haz-Coutinho-Alli-Philips
      Aguero-Defoe-Barnes

      Any transfers needed?
      0.0 Itb

      1)Aguero to Kane and Defoe to Lukaku
      2)Hazard to Pedro and Defoe to Kane
      3)Save?

    13. For Fuchs Sake
      • 16 Years

      Would you WC this team?

      Pickford Grant
      Jones Pieters Holebas Amat McAuley
      Alli Sanchez Hazard Phillips Capoue
      Ibra Giroud Benteke

      1. THFC4LIFE
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        That your current team?

        1. The Bandit
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I hope so 😀

        2. For Fuchs Sake
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Yep! Want to make a few moves especially in defence, but Tekkers and Giroud may need shipping :-/

      2. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I'm sitting tight on my WC, until a DGW, even if it gives me piles.

      3. ZeBestee
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        no, maybe bring in Crouchy and Coutinho for Capoue and Benteke if you have the resources

    14. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm 100 points behind my mini-league leader but I'm pretty sure him and those around him have played their chips and done their wildcard while I haven't I can catch them right? Winner gets 1600 and I'm currently 40th but will go up once points added tonight

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Totally doable

      2. Parm
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        You can win it from there, yes.

      3. ***00tennis***
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        100pts is nothing at all at this stage

    15. EDEN THE MAN
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Kane or Ibra

      1. Winks Club
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Both but Ibra first

    16. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      if you had Lallana in your team, will you bring in Coutinho for him or to play with him? or save?

      1. Yank Revolution
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Too much Pool, its one or the other I think. Im just waiting for Studge to get his chance...he's a true goal machine.

      2. Jamin
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Any chance you could stretch to alli/erik?

        1. ZeBestee
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          i was thinking Liverpool next week will score big. and Coutinho is there to stay

          1. Jamin
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 3 months ago

            After today's citeh performance & the way spurs are playing so could A&E!

    17. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      In a right Pogba pickle. His stats say I should keep and he sits atop of Jonty's goals imminent table...but on the eye test just looks like a more expensive Firminho in just missing chances galore.

      A) Keep Pogba and save the FT
      B) Go off another punt in Coutinho.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Watching games over stats everytime

      2. Sonic Huth
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Coutinho. He is a game changer.

      3. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Also hit the post/bar more than anyone in PL. I'm keeping, nice fixtures coming up.

    18. Jamin
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Slightly strange 1 chaps;
      Play Negredo (WHU) or
      bench him and use ft on Allen to Stanislas (WAT) & start stan?

    19. Pedaso Pirates
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      I'm think of doing Costa plus Alonso for Ibra and Baines. Fixtures driving it. Alonso is funding Ibra.
      Thoughts?

      I have Kane and Defoe currently up front.

      1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Sell Alonso? Clearly joking

        1. Pedaso Pirates
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          I'm not dropping Sanchez, Alli, Lallana or Kane. No other player gives me enough change to afford the upgrade to Ibra. Alternative is Lukaku for Costa. Or keep Costa and hope he's ready, willing and able next week.

      2. Monkey Hanger
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        I got rid of Alonso before this GW. Not an experience I would recommend.

      3. Sweetboi
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Alonso is a season keeper, not a fan.

      4. crikeybruce
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Mental before HUL

    20. Danstoke82
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Seriously considering Kun > Kane for a hit and use the extra cash for my team next GW.

      Should I go or just hold?

      1. Sonic Huth
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Get Kane, City sucks

      2. @fpl_phenom
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        id get kane mate, city in a world of trouble

        1. Danstoke82
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 3 months ago

          Cheers guys. Getting rid of Kun feels so wrong but at 12.8 it's a waste of funds surely?

    21. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 3 months ago

      Who to captain next GW? Thinking Haz right now.

      1. Danstoke82
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 3 months ago

        Sanchez for me. As a non Giroud owner, if he's injured then Alexis could be FPL gold up front v Burnley
