FPL Question Time – Consult our panel ahead of international break

It’s that time of the week again when we give you the chance to put your questions to our panel of Fantasy Premier League managers.

However, the talking points shift a little bit this time as we head into the first international break of the season.

We’ve assembled another panel of three Fantasy managers this week and will be bringing you a different set for each Gameweek over the course of the season. They are here to answer any questions you might have relating to the international break.

You can find out what their answers are Monday.

Who’s on the panel this week?

James Egersdorff – You can’t get much more experienced than this man when it comes to FPL. After yet another season inside the top 5,000 managers in 2017/18, James now sits top of the Fantasy Football Scout ‘Hall of Fame’.

Tom from Who Got the Assist? – One half of one of the fastest growing FPL podcasts of recent times.

Holly Shand – Founder of the popular Fantasy Football Community website and recent video star for Official FPL.

    Eden Hazard on Marcos Alonso

    "Sometimes, [he] is in front of me. I said to him once, 'Marcos, I think your first target is to defend, because you play left back', but this guy don't want to listen, he just wants to score goals."

      Marcos on Eden:
      Sometimes the little midget wont play me the ball. Then I go:
      Give ball

        It beats saying, ‘give ball or I take aim on your sister through that big Mercedes sight’

    2. Siggy in the Middle
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Aubameyang and Lacazette start up top. Probably gonna ditch Lacazette anyway but hopefully he hauls

      1. Siggy in the Middle
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

    This period reminds me of Kanexit last year before xmas. Couple of quiet games and those who sold him were punished hard.

    I will definitely not be selling Salah just yet!

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Kane is on a different level though

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Salah has the all time highest points total.

      2. JJO
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah level below

    2. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      This. I said similar to TH 14 earlier. Jay took a 20 point hit, Kane was useless and not worth 13 million, hadn’t scored in August, failed “the eye test”, looked slow... then scored a hat trick away to impregnable Burnley and it was all to the other side of the boat, “value per million”, “history”, “essential”.

      The problem with any social forum is the hysteria and herd mentality.

  12. Podge
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Salah is 3 points ahead of where he was last year after 4 games. Out of form ?
    Saying that he’s 50% dearer.

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      He is but what did he get last season? 400 something? Highest total ever? If Kane was worth 12-13 million in previous seasons then you would still pay 13 for 400 odd points.

      1. Licious Lizard
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        303 points.
        400 is never going to happen

        1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          Yeah, now I’m getting hysterical with my handles. All time highest score though I believe.

    2. LÖrKingMuch
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      Season keeper unless injured at any time. Short-term hindsight strategies based on current gameweek will of course disagree.

  13. RashFraud
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Mkhi on the bench! -_-

  14. drughi

  20. Syd.
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Mkhitaryan benched 😆 😆

    1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      I thought you said no surprises?

      That suits a number of people on here so long as he doesn’t make a show at all.

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        That wasn't a surprise as Mkhitaryan is a bit shite

        1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          5 years, 8 months ago

          You realise the team you’re talking about right? They have Ozil, Iwobi and a kid who looks like a David Luiz impersonator. It’s all relative.

  21. Desperately Seeking Dusan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    No Mkhi... the rumours were true.

    1. Cok3y5murf

  22. El Lobito 10
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    No Mkhitaryan. I'm beginning to dislike this Emery fella with all this ridiculous rotation.

    1. badgerboy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      New manager. Trying to figure his best team out.

      1. Desperately Seeking Dusan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Maybe I’m old fashioned but I thought that’s what pre season was for...

  23. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

    1. JJO
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 8 months ago

      what did say on forums?

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 8 months ago

        Most fans were calling.for him to be dropped due to his horrible overall workrate

  29. mir
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 8 months ago

    Mkhi will do a Pedro!! Well I hope he does.

    1. El Lobito 10

    Christ. Now I’ve got to hope Mkhi doesn’t come on and Guendouzi has a stormer from my bench!
