Minimising investment in goalkeepers has long been a popular adage among seasoned Fantasy managers. Year after year, we find ourselves searching for budget offerings who offer the sought-after combination of clean sheet and save-point potential.
The wider meta, however, often runs contrary to this strategy – with premium goalkeepers such as Thibaut Courtois, Hugo Lloris and David de Gea consistently ranking among the most popular players in Fantasy Premier League in terms of ownership.
Hazard isn't a doubt for saturday according to Belgium media.
So I would hold
I like C or hold. Team looks good.
If you want to shift to 433 I like option B.
Kane can wait till GW15.
That's exactly what he can't wait with. 3 away fixtures in the next 4 for Kane = Points galore.
Arsenal away isn’t points galore and Brom home doesn’t sound too good also.
Sterling to Richarlison a good move or not worth it?
Only for a hit
De Gea
Jones / Ward / Cresswell
Eriksen / Sterling / Richarlison / Zaha
Aguero (C) / Kane (VC) / Abraham
Elliot / Otamendi / Carroll / Hünemeier
1FT £1.0
A) Eriksen to Salah
B) Eriksen to Salah, Cresswell to Daniels (-4)
C) Roll FT
D) Something else
A
Fabianski (Elliot)
Jones, Davies, Ward (Ota, Mbemba)
Salah, Silva, Gross, Richardlison, (Cork)
Jesus, Morata, Kane
1FT 0.1 ITB
Plan is to get rid of Mbemba, Davies and Cork over the next few weeks. Potentially Jesus to someone (augero?).
What are the priorities?
Mbemba to Dummett
Sorry just realised you're .1 short so ignore that
Is he actually meant to be playing agaain?!
Was thinking more Rangel.
Don't go there!
I want Salah in my team. My midfield is Eriksen, Richarlison, Sterling, Choupo-Moting and Carroll.
Who ditch for Salah?
A) Eriksen or
B) Sterling (rotain risk, but no other city cover)
Who is the best Vardy replacement?
Thank you!
Vardy -> Tammy and Choupo -> Salah could you do that?
Thank you for writing. This was kind. Unfortunately I can not do this. - 1.2 too short.
Seen a lot people mentioning Lukaku is a good option for only 3 weeks.
He had 3 goals in 4 matches against Arsenal & City last season.
After those 2 matches United again go on a brilliant run of fixtures from GW17-27 (only Spurs the tough fixture in GW25).
If he performs in the next 3 I think he stays in my team for the 2 tough fixtures also.
What if he doesn't perform in the next three though?
Aguero, Firmino & Vardy all could be options.
The big doubt is about United and their lack of a functional and collective attacking system. I don't think that Mou just suddenly hits a switch and then United will continue to beat teams 4-0 every game. I think the early results flattered their overarching weaknesses in attack.
It was the “Pogba problem”.
But he's not back yet, right?
I agree but then I've got DeGea Valencia and Jones.
All my players will have played by the end of the 3pm kickoffs on Saturday. What a bizarre situation.
Grinding your teeth, for the rest of the weekend? Time to buy Groß? 😉
That's the worry! Might get a Brighton def over Daniels just to have someone in the Monday night game
I have Duffy and Ryan.
The game changing player will play after all the big hitters have played.
Lukaku(c).
'big hitters'. He's like 50% ownership and 11.5, that's the definition of a big hitter! I'll be behind the sofa
Very strange situation.Mustve been what it was like playing ff in the 70s.
By carrier pigeon or ravens a la GOT?
You had to wait for the Sunday morning sports supplement to see how your team had done back then.I can still remember the excitement running to the paper shop early morning in all weathers and the anticipation as you turned straight to the sports supplement only to see if triple captain Charlie George had done owt.
I played Fantasy Cricket by post in the nineties. Also played Fantasy Football at the same time, but that was in a local pub league so no stamps needed.
Not an issue.
For my two FTs I’m thinking Hazard to Salah and Jesus to Morata. Thoughts please. My squad is:
Elliot (Pereira)
Alonso, Jones, Walker, Daniels (Long)
Hazard, Zaha, Richarlison, Choupo (TLC)
Kane, Jesus (Abraham)
Yeah good move
Kun goal
Pretty desperate in my search of the 3rd striker...Thoughts on Callum Wilson as a pick?
Argentina are playing so well today 🙂
Bit of trivia I suppose:
Which England league sides are the furthest...
A) North
B) South
C) East
D) West
Plymouth for South?
And west?
Correct 🙂
Swansea may beat it for west
Both South and West are Plymouth 😉
Helps being from Devon!!
Carlisle
Plymouth
Norwich
Plymouth
Close! The last 3 are correct
Berwick upon Tweed?
Or Berwick Rangers, but I thought they played in Scotland
Newcastle
yup. you got it
A or B?
A) Kun Rooney Haz Kol
B) Kaku Morata Sane Moreno/Mee/Jag/Daniels?
Rooney?! You playing the 2012 version?
Kun
RMWCT
Pope Elliot
Jones Dann Daniels Mee Moreno
Salah Sterling Richarlison Surman RLC
Kane Kaku Kun
Does anyone know Kane's record away to Arsenal?
Pen goal last season
Bit lazy?
One interesting stat which might help decide whether to pick him as captain is that hes never scored a home goal.
How is this relevant?
Could make all the difference
He's away at a ground where the home side have been quite tight.
2 games, 2 goals.
Cheers.
I've got 1FT and 0 funds. Save or make a change?
Pope // Elliot
Ward, Jones, Azip // Otamendi, Mbemba
Salah, Silva, Richarlison, Surman // Carroll
Kane, Vardy, Lukaku(c)
Save. A few dead players you could use a double or tripple sub on.
Mbemba obviously. Who else?
Also Carroll and Surman who aint great. Potentially upgrade 1 or 2 while downgrading Vardy? TBF your teams looking good.
Iheanacho goal
Nacho goal
Iheanacho with the FK goal against Argentina...can't even be mad 😆
Cresswell and mbemba > Moreno and Dunk for free? Good moves? Will give me 5 starting Defenders.
Might be worth sticking with cresswell for another week incase he keeps that LW place
Sack that was thinking chilwell
A) Kun Rooney Haz Kol
Or
B) Kaku Morata Sane Moreno/Mee/Jag/Daniels?
B with Daniels
B, Mee
I want Zaha in my team with this midfield atm salah,Sterling,richarlison,gross.carroll
1.2£itb
What should I do
A) Sterling > zaha
B) gross > Zaha
I wouldn't do it but Sterling if you have too.
Jesus, Atsu and Cedric ----> Lukaku, RLC and Mee for minus 8?
Not for a -8
Hi guys, very tempted to use my wildcard as there are quite a few chances I'd like to make:
Current team:
Foster (Eliot)
Jones, Monreal, Cedric (Long, Suttner)
Silva, Erikson, Richarlison, Rambo (TC)
Lukaku, Jesus, Vardy
2 FT 1m
WC Team:
Pope (Eliot)
Daniels - Jones - Ward (Mbemba, Gomez)
Salah - Sterling - Richarlison - RLC (TC)
Lukaku - Kane - Morata
Would you wildcard?
A) YES - any changes?
B) No - what 2FT would you do?
Jesus to Aguero, Monreal to Maguire/Mee/Daniels/Ward.
Elliot (Foster)
Cedric Wimmer Mee (Naughton Otamendi)
Alli Salah Sterling Richarlison (Carroll)
Lukaku Kane Joselu
1 FT 0.5m ITB
Biggest priority?
a) Cedric out (to Jones most likely if fit)
b) Joselu out (£6m or less unless I take a hit)
c) Foster out (£4.5-£5.0m)
Cedric to Jones looks decent - otherwise a good team. Probably Joselu to Abraham/Murray at some stage, but getting rid of Cedric a much bigger priority (especially with Ota out)
Hart (Elliott)
Jones | Davies | Stones (Naughton | Mbemba)
Sterling | Salah | Richarlison | Rambo (Atsu)
Firmino | (K)ane | Morata
£0.5 itb 1 FT
Davies to Mee for free?
Atsu to RLC next week to free up funds to upgrade Mbemba and Hart?
Why not Mbemba - Mee/Tarkowski this week?
Hoping Neymar and Jesus don't turn up, could be a romping.
Magic bean RLC will show them how to samba.
Congested Christmas Schedule...Wary Weak Bench - any concerns pls?
DDG, Pope.
Jones, Ward, Daniels, Dunk, Huneim.
Sane, Salah, Richarlison, RLC, Shaqiri.
Abraham, Kane, Aguero.
Shaq to Gross, Huneim to some cheapie and upgrade Abraham.
Cedric out to who ?
A,Duffy
B,Daniels
C,Moreno ?
My other defenders are Ottamendi,Jones,Ward and Naughton.Thanks.
Will add that i will flip between 4-3-3 and 3-4-3 using Rlc as my 4th mid on occasion.
B most upside
if you are only ever play 4 max why spend the extra money on Daniels? i think ota/jones/ward can play most fixtures and so a or c can either swap with ward or rotate with naughton.
Yeah forget Moreno just double checked fixtures.Bournemouths next 4 or 5 are pretty juicy and Daniels does have assist potential.Hoping not to have to use Naughton much as i dont really trust Swans defence.
6 years, 5 months agoHello there, kindly need your help
Elliott
Ota-Bavies-Jones-Ward
Hazard-Salah-Eriksen-Richarlison Kun-Morata
(Foster-Joselu-Caroll-Mbemba)
For this week:
A. Hold FT
B. Hazard(likely injured)+Joselu --> Lukaku+RLC (-4)
C. Bavies --> Moreno, next week Kun --> Kane
Options B will make me play with 3 heavy hitters and 433 formation.
Options C will play 442.
Thanks, sorry repost.
