Join us for another episode of Breakfast Club this morning as we prepare for Gameweek 9 of Fantasy Premier League.

You can watch it below or on our YouTube channel.

Joe and David will be joined by special guests Josh and Brandon from popular podcast Always Cheating this morning to discuss their transfer plans.

The pair will be beaming in all the way across the sea from their base of operations in the USA.

We will be on air from 11:15am to 11:45am.

Once the 11:30am deadline has passed we’ll be looking at the team news for Chelsea vs Manchester United. There will be particular focus on Marcos Alonso and Eden Hazard who are still very fashionable Fantasy assets.

    Any ideas if Fraser and King will play, I may have the worst bench I've seen in Jorginho, Shaw and AWB

    1. DeathoftheParty
      8 years, 14 days ago

      One of the two will be struggling at least imo

    That was a very unsatisfying WC fortnight. Feel like I never quite found a team I love, ended up only changing 4 players and have left myself a benching headache each week.

    So many good options now. Reckon the template will shift hugely in the next fortnight and I may have been better waiting...

    1. Holmes
      8 years, 14 days ago

      my reason for not activating WC was because of very few options to choose from, especially mids/fwds 😮

      1. Chenku╰☆╮
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Just the opposite if you know where to look outside the template you see here.

        1. Holmes
          8 years, 14 days ago

          i was actually looking outside template and none of them looking exciting picks, felt more like desperate picks to avoid template

          1. Chenku╰☆╮
            8 years, 14 days ago

            Disagree. I have so many I want but can't get.. literally 25 on my watchlist..

            1. Holmes
              8 years, 14 days ago

              different selection criteria I guess

              Arsenal, Brighton, Bournemouth, Burnley, Cardiff, Palace, Fulham, Huddersfield, Man Utd, Tottenham, Southampton, Watford

              Thats 12 teams out of the window.

        2. Holmes
          8 years, 14 days ago

          half of the teams dont even have one decent option 😮

          1. SADIO SANÉ
            8 years, 14 days ago

            kinda agree - lots of cheap-to-mid-priced forwards to choose from, but beyond that it's all a bit meh

    2. Bolivian Seaman
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Last season my wc cost me 30 points and my team was ruined for months after. But as long as you have salah and double liverpool defence you should be ok I think

      Had exactly the same problem, felt lucky when someone on here pointed out another IB break in THREE weeks. Decided to WC then to see injuries clear up and KDB form.

      1. Vamos
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Yeah I kinda had to hit WC. No real bench, too many fringe players, couple of injuries.

        But it doesn't feel like it's loads better for it.

        Chickened out of restructuring it to accommodate Vardy or Lacazette but think a -4 means I can easily do that. Biggest risk I took was losing Alonso for Mendy. We shall see...

        1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          8 years, 14 days ago

          How did it work out for you this wknd so far....the Alonso to Mandy was a good shout...

  3. The Final Boss
    8 years, 14 days ago

    No herriera for hazard 🙂

  4. Dosh
    8 years, 14 days ago

    Need Sterling to haul and increase in price by 0.1 so I can get Salah for free next week..

    1. diesel001
      8 years, 14 days ago

      This would be nice.

    2. Holmes
      8 years, 14 days ago

      and then regret why you sold sterling for salah 😮

    3. Chenku╰☆╮
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Won't happen..

  5. Bubz
    8 years, 14 days ago

    What is the woman's name interviewing Pogba?

    1. diesel001
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Laura Woods I think

      1. Team Cruel
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 14 days ago

        She's 41?! Damn, she looks 25.

      2. Bubz
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Cheers 😉

    2. Alan The Llama
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Jeff

    3. Team Cruel

      8 years, 14 days ago

      Asking for a friend right?

      1. Chenku╰☆╮
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Yeah for me..

    4. barracuda
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Was she a good looking?

      1. Alan The Llama
        8 years, 14 days ago

        If you were drunk, maybe.

        1. barracuda
          8 years, 14 days ago

          I am always drunk 😉

  6. PASTATOGEL
    8 years, 14 days ago

    anybody thinks palace would put a stand out perfomance today @ goodison park ?

    1. Chenku╰☆╮
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Yeah..standing outside performance

  7. Bolivian Seaman
    8 years, 14 days ago

    Leeds losing. I forgot Danny Graham existed - now there's an fpl bandwagon that never took off 😉

  8. Alan The Llama
    8 years, 14 days ago

    Someone needs to tell Pogba that when the opposition has the ball, standing in space doesn't constitute defending.

    But not today.

    1. Dr Dream
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Agreed. I love Pogba but he could be made to look like the luxury player he is today.

    Real Madrid are terrible this season

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Real Mediocre

    2. barracuda
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Jeez. 16th min and already 2 down to Levante,

    3. PASTATOGEL
      8 years, 14 days ago

      so are man utd!

  10. Twisted Saltergater
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 14 days ago

    The only transfer I've made in 3 weeks is Ings > Sturridge 😆

    1. XabiAlonso
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Good luck big plums

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Cheers Xavi, and to you bud

    2. barracuda
      8 years, 14 days ago

      Hmmm. A wasteful pick I reckon- sorry,

      1. Twisted Saltergater
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        8 years, 14 days ago

        He's my 8th attacker, might be able to carry him for a few weeks. Then again, there might be rotation for these easier fixtures and he starts.

        1. barracuda
          8 years, 14 days ago

          Maybe and good luck champ

  11. Dr Dream
    8 years, 14 days ago

    Bottled captain Hazard. Regretting it already.

    1. barracuda
      8 years, 14 days ago

      No, you didn't.

      1. Dr Dream
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Yes i did. Aguero(c)

      2. Fitzy.
        8 years, 14 days ago

        That's not his team that's linked.

        1. Dr Dream
          8 years, 14 days ago

          I don't even know how to do that lark.

      3. Dr Dream
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Whoever's team tjat his he's done right. Captain Hazard for the season may be avery good idea.

    1. fclackless [Brazil Nuts]
      8 years, 14 days ago

      cheers

    This Heineken canned lager is awful. Gives me a proper headache after 8th pint. Nothing like good ole Stella.

    1. XabiAlonso
      8 years, 14 days ago

      It's only good for 7 cans that stuff. Need to get yourself on an 8th can rotation for the long term

      1. barracuda
        8 years, 14 days ago

        🙂 Got another 22 in the fridge I am afraid 😀

          Saturday, Sunday and Monday covered...

        2. XabiAlonso

          😆
          Better get the stomach pump ready

  14. DeathoftheParty

    Best and worst pieces of business so far this year both involve Riyad Mahrez.

    You've gotta say shipping a bloke who clearly has spent two years not really wanting to play for the club for £60m and then replacing him with a 21 year old prospect like James Maddison is some shrewd business by Puel. And I believe Leicester look a better team for it and in particular and aging Vardy looks to have been revived somewhat.

    On to the worst. Now, at no point here am I saying Mahrez isn't a quality player. Of course he is. But I don't really know what Pep's game plan was in sanctioning Mahrez in and Sancho out. Yes I know Sancho left last year but even then Pep was all over Mahrez and it never really came to fruition. Buying a 27 year old world beating winger in a team of world beating wingers when you have a young lad with talent and desperate to play seems on for a manager with such intelligence. Maybe put an arm round him and say his chance is coming... Instead of going on and on about signing Mahrez for 2 years.

    Any thoughts from the community? Any 'best and worst' business so far?

      We've made some very good transfer deals over the past few years
      OUT: Kante ( the most costly in terms of effect on the team). Drinkwater, Mahrez
      IN: Maguire, Maddison

      1. DeathoftheParty
        8 years, 14 days ago

        Drinkwater was an odd one. All about the dollar...

        Your Def mids currently where some good business.

  15. DeathoftheParty

    What's pogba complaining about? That was his fault!

  16. Teomi
    8 years, 14 days ago

    Predicts on city lineup:

    3-5-2
    Ederson
    Stones Ota Laporte
    Walker Bilva ferna Dilva Mendy
    Kun Jesus
