      Are you talking for the GKs? There's an Expected tab in the GK section of Player Stats.

        Not in custom stat tables, though.

    Is Cairney to Neves for free worth it, yes or no?

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years

      If you're playing the market, sure. I'd say wait.

  7. My heart goes Salalalalah
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Good evening. Please help me with this. 1.0itb

    Foster
    Shaw VVD Bavies
    Moura Salah Bilva Richarlison
    Kun King Firmino
    Stek AWB Peltier Gunnarson

    Planned to save ft for Kun to Auba and Moura to Ramsey/Mkhi gw3. Or even better probably Shaw to Bellerin. My bench is very weak with Gunnarson injury now.

    Should I save or:
    A) Shaw to Mendy
    B) Foster to Ederson set and forget
    C) Improve bench, like Gunnarson to Neves and catch price increase

    1. Team Bobcat
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I think it is only a matter of time before Shaw is dropped in favour of young. I could also be wrong and Shaw may do what Jones did for them last year. So if you think shaw is on borrowed time then may as well get mendy now. If not hold

      1. My heart goes Salalalalah
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Thanks. I think Shaw will get at least this 1 more. Also a wee bit worried about Mendy’s nailedness to be honest. So it’s a suggestion to save then. Appreciated

    Great article David. Nice to see what is really going on with Kante and Neves, 2 early bandwagons.

    This is why you pay your membership people!

      Meh...

    5. The Mighty Hippo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I agree, I think it's a really useful analysis. I'm particularly interested in the stats that were associated with Eriksen, Chillwell and Pereyra.

  9. kysersosa
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Jones out for

    A) PVA
    B) Mina
    C) Bellerin
    D) other
    E) hold and reevaluate next week. ( have Mendy, Robertson, Daniels and wan bissaka). Currently on E.

    1. FPL Scoop
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      E

    2. Team Bobcat
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Neither them interest me. PVA is just a lot more expessive WB in my eyes. Mina intested in an already shaky team. Bellerin the best of that lot but I think you need stretch it to Mendy. May have to sacrifice another next week to accommodate that move

      1. kysersosa
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        I already have Mendy (mentioned in post). Bellerin is my preferred choice in 2 GW’s.

      2. All de Gea no iDier
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        The problem with that comment is that W-B is an exceptional bargain that only occurs every now and then. If you took him out of the equation and compared PvA against like for like - Bellerin, Coleman, Maguire, etc he would still be a good prospect. I have both W-B and PvA and I accept that it limits my options as I also have Sorloth, but I went into it with my eyes open knowing that by GW8 I would be considering a WC and both Zaha and Benteke are fragile. Didn't expect them signing Ayew though, but Sorloth is 3rd sub so it doesn't hurt too much.

        Up to GW 8 PvA is in my opinion as good a prospect as you will get for his price. Treat W-B as a gift from heaven.

    3. BeDreamin
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I was in the same boat and normally I'd say hold as I'm sure he'll play next week. But according to FPL statistics he'll drop to 5.4 tonight or later this week. For that reason alone I shifted him.

      1. BeDreamin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        I went with Holebas his stats are insane

      2. BeDreamin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Also Chilwell's stats are impressive

      3. kysersosa
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Good comms, didn’t think me would drop. Will look at Holebas.

      4. kysersosa

        Just looked at Watford fixtures after this weekend: CRY TOT MUN ful ars BOU - not great.

  10. FPL Scoop
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Boly - keep or swap out on my FT?

    Have 1.0 ITB, but could also just get in another 4.5 like Holebas?

    Otherwise have to play 2 of Tomkins AWB Kamara Boly

    1. Team Bobcat
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I am not sure how you found yourself in this situation in week two. You may have to WC now and be done with it... Maybe just get a Burnley defender in and that should tie you over nicely for a while

    2 comments in a row from the inane posting of a psychotic scout stalker. Not sure this is a good start.

    1. FPL Virgin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Bit harsh on The Wise Owl.

      1. The Wise Owl
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        🙁

    2. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years

      I'm actually quite offended.

      1. FPL Virgin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years

        I'm still a fan. Us 2's need to stick together. 🙂

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          Keep Pedro very good option

    2. ritzyd
      • 8 Years

      A

  13. Kate1001
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Folks thinking of wildcarding any suggested changes.

    Fabianski
    Stones Shaw Mendy
    Neves Ricarlison Mane Salah
    Kane Aguero Joselu

    Bench Hamer Billing Peltier Wan Bissaka

    Thoughts??

  14. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Reading a lot about salah regression based on 1 gw.

    Some stats to consider:

    Last season salah scored 32 goals in 36 games

    He blanked - 12 times

    He scored one 18 times!!!!

    He scored two 5 times

    He scored four 1 time

    Over 300 fantasy points

    Conclusion: it is very common for salah to score only 1 goal. There are no signs of regression yet. What salah does better than anyone is provide consistent returns. He did that on sunday. Mane, kane and kun are streaky. If you want 8 points from your captain every week. Go Salah. Liverpool got better and he is still the main man.

    1. My heart goes Salalalalah
      • 9 Years

      Good work mate

      1. MYNAMEISBigtopmark.sman
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Thanks. I think its good to see how many times he only scored 1. Expectations are ridiculous by some on here

  15. Hazardous1983
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Pickford or fab to start this week

    Cedric tomkins or wan wissaka

    King to arnie or tosun or save

    1m.in bank

  16. Dušan Citizen

    Is it likely there to be any double gameweek until the end of the season?

    1. Dušan Citizen

      Thanks

  17. King Kohli

    Jota > Richarlison?

    Quite happy with the rest of my team

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I wouldn’t

    2. Zoostation
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I've done it. Probably knee jerky but do you really care?

      Mistake not to get him in the first place with those fixtures.

    3. openerhm
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I'm in same position and won't

    4. Strchld
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Same dilemma. Probably going to save and hope Tosun scores more than Richa

    5. Sterling Malory
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I was very knee jerky and did this:

      Jota—> Richarlison
      Stephens—> Neves

      Don’t really regret it, just that I changed my mind before GW1

  18. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Anyone want to help me calculate the expected knee-jerks (xKJ) per page?

    1. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Do I have to pay £15?

      1. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Per month but it's worth it because I'll give you a shoutout

    2. All de Gea no iDier
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Number of Casuals squared would be about right.

    3. Futile Tinkering
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Some knee jerked Salah out for Mane only to knee jerk him back in after GW2 😆

    4. Futile Tinkering
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      The ones im guilty of though are rage trasfers during matches when my captain is subbed before the 69th.

  19. Baked baines
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 21 days ago

    Had Aguero put away his chances yesterday he would be dead cert the capt choice for this weeks game against Huddersfield. He now comes with a risk of being sub or having his minutes reduced for Jesus.
    Sods law you capt him and this would happen, or you don’t and he scores a brace!
    It’s a tough call.
    So that being said an Arnie home to a Bournemouth looks enticing and tempting, even Tosun too!

    Anyone have Aguero and looking at an Arnie, Tosun, Richarlison etc?!

    1. openerhm
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      looking at Salah

    2. Team Bobcat
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I have kun Arnie Rich but finding it very hard to move the armband from Salah. Of the above kun edges it for me

    Thank you so much.

  21. Lisboa 1967

    Foster Wat v Burnley

    Fabianski Whu v Bournemouth ?

    Give reasons 🙂

    1. Please Help I Don't Kn…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Going for Fab cause he's a better keeper.

    2. The Master
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Fabianski.

      He is a good shot stopper so potential for save points. Also, he has proven himself as a Premier League keeper in the past.

  22. The Master
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years

    Sky Sports News reporting that Richarlison will be fit for this weekend's game. Apparently he was suffering from cramp.

      0-0 would be sick. With captaining Aguero instead of Salah!

    Is trippier supposed to start next game? If not, should i transfer him or wait?

    1. openerhm
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      I'd just get him out cus he's a rotation risk all season and both Robbo and mendy better options for whole season

    Problem I have with only being able to post RMTs or GTGs in only one article comment section is that well... those comment sections are kinda dead

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 17 Years

      Do you reply to others?

      Spot on!

    3. All de Gea no iDier
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Problem I have is every discussion page is being taken over by RMT posts. It dilutes the discussion of the article.

      If all the RMTs were posted in the right place maybe more people who were interested in commenting on them would go there ?

      1. Team Bobcat
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Problem I have is I am not a member and can not read the article. Therefore I respond or start randon discussions.

      2. BeDreamin
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 21 days ago

        Have you ever been on thst page? I've not posted a RMT but there's no point in a section where no one goes.

        There has not been a single post discussing actual subject of this article. I would suggest just skipping RMTs if you don't like them and letting others comment if they want to, where's the harm in that?

    4. Jack Sparrow
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      It is only an RMT or GTG if you put your full team. You can ask the same question but if you put your full team for context you get asked to post on RMT/GTG article. Feels like a rushed delivery to market if you ask me with no logic or thought process involved.

      Sure they will make it better once people start engaging the brain..

    5. Brosstan
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Because, surprise surprise, the people posting those kind of comments arent contributing at all

    6. Mayanyi
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 21 days ago

      Why not simply have a proper forum discussions? Articles could still be commented on, and hopefully those comments would relate to the actual article in question. Other discussions/topics and RMT's in the forum where it's easy to find it.

  27. JAC THE CAT
