We delve into the Opta data next, rolling out our usual post-Gameweek members’ article.

Both Merseyside clubs play a part in our assessment, while we also check out the contrasting fortunes from West Ham and Watford’s goal scoring midfielders.

Southampton’s in-form frontman is also among our featured players, as is a certain Man City wide man after a weekend return to the scoresheet.

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

    Worth getting rid of Kola this week for a hit?

    6.9 to spend

    1. Rajveer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      If u dnt have at least 3 defenders with good fixtures then yes otherwise do it next week...

  2. Rajveer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Anything worthy to change here guys??

    Fabianski

    Otamendi | Masuaku | Jones

    Salah (vc) | Sterling (c) | Shaqiri | Hazard | RLC

    Kane | Morata

    Subs:- Elliot | DCL | Lowton | Kenny

    On a -4 and 0.9 itb...

    Thanks in advance guys...

      What is your TV?

      1. Rajveer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        103.7

    2. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Not for a -8. You believe RLC(A) would score more than DCL(H) this gw?

      1. Rajveer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        The fact is that RLC got SWA and DCL play Chelsea...

  3. FPLAdmiral
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Could do with your advice chaps!

    Kiko + Morata > Alonso + Firmino for free?

    2FT, 0.5m ITB.

    Pope
    Otamendi, Christensen, Kiko*
    Hazard, Sterling, Salah, Richarlison
    Kane, Morata

    (Speroni)(RLC, Mee, Kenny)

    1. Rajveer
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Kiko > Masuaku or ogbonna and roll the other ft...I would hold Morata with those fixtures and his underlying stats are great whenever he plays...

    2. SiSenõr90
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Get Ogbonna instead of Alonso.

      1. FPLAdmiral
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Tempted by this but would hold off on the Morata move as above if I did it. Alonso’s form and fixtures tempt me!

    3. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Look like good moves to me

    4. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Kiko > Masuaku and bank the cash for over Xmas transfers

    5. Dee Lixon
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

  4. Efan Ekoku Pops
    • 14 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Pope / Elliot
    Otamendi / Azpi / Kabasele / Daniels / Naughton
    Salah / Hazard / Sterling / Richarlison / Carroll
    Kane / Vardy / DCL

    1FT, 0.0 ITB

    Which is the best move this week?
    A) Daniels > Masuaku
    B) Vardy > Austin
    C) Something else

    Cheers

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Roll the transfer and have 2 next GW

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Vardy to Rooney?

  5. Awesom-o
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Austin or Depoitre?

    Hudderfield's fixtures look a lot better than Southampton's.

    Would be a Morata replacement to enable Pogba and DDG to come in over the next few weeks.

    1. dbeck
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Depoitre for me, purely because he is a million cheaper.

      If you haven’t got Richarlison, is A Gray worth a punt as deeney has a four game ban and Watford have nice fixtures

    2. Sune
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Depoitre

  6. Duffy Dunk
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Would you do Hazard->DeBruyne?

    Ryan Elliot
    Otamendi Christensen Mustafi Daniels Tarkowski
    Hazard Salah Coutinho Sterling Richarlison
    Morata Firmino Calvert

    1 FT, 0.3 itb

    1. FPLAdmiral
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I’d hold, Chelsea’s fixtures are great and Hazard has pens over KDB

    2. Sharkytect
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Nah. Morata coming back. Save the transfer

  7. COYG
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Captain

    A) Kane (bur)
    B) Salah (ars)
    C) Sterling (bou)
    D) Morata (eve)
    E) Hazard (eve)

    1. damiang2233
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Kane or sterling in my opinion!

    2. SiSenõr90
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Sterling. His record against Bournemouth is terrific

      1. dbeck
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Sterling

    3. Sharkytect
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I think the sensible option is sterling but I am going Kane

    4. GreenArrows

      C

    5. Sune
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      C

  8. GuillermoDickero
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    This team G2G? 0ITB - thinking Pope could be switched out

    Pope
    Alonso, Otamendi, Christensen
    Salah, Coutinho, Sterling, Richarlison, RLC
    Kane, Morata

    Elliott, Dunk, Calvert Lewin, Kenny

    1. SiSenõr90

      Solid team. All the best mate

    Silva out for a hit? Used my FT on injuries.

    B. Sterling
    C. Son

      B

  11. HD7
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Hazard Morata Coutinho Salah

    Place them in order from who is least rotated to most rotated of them in the festive period?

    Last thing I need is having rotated players and please dont say have a good bench because in most cases Morata comes on for 10mins and RLC stays with 6pts on the bench...
    Hence Im defo getting Pogba - had a big rest and Mou doesnt like rotating so much.

    1. damiang2233
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      They will all probably get rotated over the christmas period. Chelsea has some attractive fixtures but they have been very hit and miss this year. I would defo suggest getting pogba...trying to do that myself too.

  12. Vlad Tepes
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    When will the yellow card ban extend to 10 instead of 5? Any news regarding Tarkowski, will he get a ban?

    1. JCrosbie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      31st December

      1. Brap.
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        No

        After each team has played 19 games

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      It’s been changed. Used to be 31st December but pretty sure it’s now after gw19? Thought there would a suspension tightrope article to confirm but not seen one

  13. JCrosbie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    T.Carroll and Lacazette

    To

    Sterling and Calvin for 4 pts?

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Surely

    2. Clifford☯
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      yeah

  14. Rebeltactics
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    So some help needed

    Mahrez for:
    A) Sterling -4 points
    B) Pogba - 4 points
    C) Hold this isn’t an upgrade

    Rest of my mid is Son, Gross, Richarlison, Doucoure

    1. SiSenõr90
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Sterling

    2. damiang2233
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Probably say Pogba or maybe sterling. Sterling is more likely to get rotated over Pogba as he missed the last 3 games through suspension, so should be fresh 🙂

  15. Pringle
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Even though I have 2FT I think I will go for the steady eddie route this week which will imply no City players what so ever. It might sound crazy but I dont get a good feeling from taking out the likes of Morata, Hazard and Coutinho. They all have great fixtures coming up so I think I will use one of my transfers on getting three playing defenders and roll the other one over. Think that might save me for a -4 somewhere down the line.

    Any reactions on this sort of defensive strategy?

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Is there anyone else you can take out apart from morata haz and coutinho? I was without city recently but got sterling 2 gws ago and feel much more confident about my team. He’s great value even if rested occasionally

      1. Pringle
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        I know. He will probably come in at one point but just dont fancy taking out other guns this week. I think.

        1. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Starting to think double Chelsea attack is overkill. They don’t look like scoring 3 or 4. Although I actually think Everton away might suit them as can hit on the break

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      where's the fun when there's no knee jerk 🙂

  16. SpaceCadet
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Best forward option for max 5.4m? Depoitre?

    1. Clifford☯
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      DCL

      1. SpaceCadet
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Already have him. Sorry should have mentioned that

        1. Clifford☯
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          Depoitre then.

          1. SpaceCadet
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Thx

    2. damiang2233

    3. Sune

      Depoitre

  17. Ajax Hamsterdam
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    is kane gets his yc card against southampton what a dgw that would be !!

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Wouldn’t be suspended as rules have changed

      1. Ajax Hamsterdam
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        really i missed that. when would he be suspended ?

        1. Bald Eagle
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          For SOU game, he would be good for DGW.

          1. Bald Eagle
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            Ah scratch that, thought a YC vs BUR. He has to escape one GW19 and then it's 10 YCs for a suspension.

        2. Pat Bonner
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          So after gw19 it moves to 10yc so just needs to avoid a booking this weekend

          1. Bald Eagle
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            This.

  18. Clifford☯
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Which is the best move this week?

    A) Kane to Lukaku
    B) Azpi & Gross to Ogbonna & Pogba (-4)
    C) Hazard to KdB

    1. That Fantasy Guy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Tough choices! Do you have morata? If so, then C

      1. Clifford☯
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Shipped him for Firmino last week

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Kane C. Every option looks like knee jerking that could backfire

    3. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Save an option?

      1. Clifford☯
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah.

    4. SpaceCadet
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      None tbh

    5. mahone24
      • 15 Years

      Not sure I love any of those 3 moves I'm afraid.

    6. Clifford☯

      Cheers everyone.

  19. mahone24
    • 15 Years

    A/ Richarlison, Kane + RLC -> Pogba, Sterling + Austin (-4)
    B/ Kane + RLC -> Austin + KDB
    C/ Richarlison, Kane, RLC + Maguire -> Pogba, Sterling, Austin + Maasuaku (-8)

    Lured by the notion of a big 5 midfield...

    1. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Kane will punish you

      1. FotnikPL
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        If you don't want to (C) him why would you keep ~13 mln player?

        1. mahone24
          • 15 Years
          8 years, 2 months ago

          This. Ive reached the end of my tether with him and becoming reliant on his captaincy (At cost to the wider balance of the team) isn't making the game as enjoyable. Will either Free Hit or get him back for the double (probably)

          1. Kiwivillan
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 2 months ago

            He's double pointed 5 times

        2. Kiwivillan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years

          Kane C this week for me

          1. mahone24
            • 15 Years

            Fair enough. It's the 10 blanks that bug me!

  20. That Fantasy Guy

    1. FPLAdmiral

    What should I do?
    A. Wildcard
    B. Abraham out

    D. Something else

    DDG Elliot
    Otamendi Christensen Mee Naughton Duffy
    Hazard Salah Sterling Richarlison RLC
    Kane Firmino Abraham

    1. damiang2233

      Wouldnt play wildcard or get rid of Abraham as Bony is injured so he should start!

    2. Batchain
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Does downgrading Abraham to Depoitre give you enough to swap Rich for Pogba?

  25. klavan
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Is it overkill to double up on United (DDG +Jones) and Chelsea (Christensen+Alonso) defence?

    1. Egg noodle
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I've got Jones Smalling Christensen, if I had enough money I would have had Alonso as well

      1. klavan
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 2 months ago

        Already have DDG, Jones and Christensen, and myb will buy Alonso

    2. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I'm not a fan to doubling up on 2 teams

      1. Gooner Kebab
        • 13 Years
