Join us for another episode of Breakfast Club today as we prepare for the Gameweek 11 deadline.

You can watch the show either on our YouTube channel where we will be live from 11:15am until 11:30am.

Joe will be joined by FPL General and Luke today to discuss plans for the next weekend of FPL action, with likely a debate over what to do with Eden Hazard (£11.3m) after Maurizio Sarri’s comments yesterday.

The General is coming off the back of some tricky weeks, his Gameweek 8 transfers coming back to bite him particularly viciously.

Meanwhile, Luke will update us on his 2018/19 journey after a technical problem ruled him out of this week’s Scoutcast.

We will also have the team news for Manchester United’s lunch-time trip to Bournemouth.

    If the Maddison out transfer backfires, is getting Maddison back (Richa out) a bad move?

    1. Federico
      8 years, 4 days ago

      If it backfires, it's already too late I think. Long term he has to go.

      1. TAT
        8 years, 4 days ago

        With those fixtures? It was the fixtures that made me consider Richarlison out instead, really.

    1. HNI
      8 years, 4 days ago

      No martial playing striker

      1. ☈☾
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Nah Sanchez

    2. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
      8 years, 4 days ago

      How is he OoP?

      1. ☈☾
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Usually plays on the left, playing up front today

        1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
          8 years, 4 days ago

          Speculation, could just as easily be Martial

  4. Numb
    8 years, 4 days ago

    OMG Stan

  5. HurriKane
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Guys Doherty 15 pointer incoming.

    Happened the last time he was 1sub on my bench. Bound to happen again. 😉

    1. NATSTER
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Let's hope Hazard totally miss out then.

      1. Silecro
        8 years, 4 days ago

        I think he is closer to starting than missing out entirely

        1. g40steve
          8 years, 4 days ago

          This, remember Newc

  6. OPTA FPL
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Wilson not on penalty today sad

    1. NATSTER
      8 years, 4 days ago

      I thought Wilson is ahead in the order. I might be wrong then.

      1. g40steve
        8 years, 4 days ago

        He is, king then Wilson?

  7. The Red Devil
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Brooks at 5.1 OOP? bou's twitter says brooks up top!

    1. Epic Fail
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Not always a good thing.

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      8 years, 4 days ago

      He'll play off him in the hole

    3. HurriKane
      8 years, 4 days ago

      More experienced mids like Zaha and Richarlison looks clueless playing OOP upfront

      Whats makes you think that Brooks will be any different ?

      1. Holmes
        8 years, 4 days ago

        he is 5.1 😉

      2. Respect My Authoritah
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Zaha was good while up front alongside Benteke

  8. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Fraser and Stanislas starting together. Could be trouble for Utd today.

  9. Piggs Boson
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Saanchez is going to create a lot of chances for Martial 😎

  10. Unbelievable Jeff!
    8 years, 4 days ago

    I did Brooks > Barkley 2 minutes before the deadline to see that Brooks is playing up front! This won't end well...

    1. Az
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      8 years, 4 days ago

      I nearly brought Brooks in this week! :O

      1. gaurava1216

        8 years, 4 days ago

        You took -4 this week and captained Salah... Brave man you are.

  11. Differential C (Mark)
    8 years, 4 days ago

        8 years, 4 days ago

        1. Numb
          8 years, 4 days ago

          Ah right. Either him or Martial not sure

      2. Respect My Authoritah
        8 years, 4 days ago

    2. Rash

      Yes he is

  13. Planet Head
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Made last 30-second selection choice by tossing a coin, then the coin went under a chest of draws ffs

    1. Old Wulfrunian
      8 years, 4 days ago

  16. AIRMILES
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Can someone come up with some good lyrics to a song about Mo Salah to the tune of Kay Sera Sera?

    1. Ron_Swanson
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Kay Sera Sera
      Whatever will be will be
      He's gonna score 2 or 3
      Kay Sera Sera

      1. Ron_Swanson
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Mo Salah Salah instead of Kay Sera Sera obviously

        1. AIRMILES
          8 years, 4 days ago

          yes, and i like that effort. cheers

      2. Gentle_Turks

        QUE, not kay. It's Spanish.

      1. AIRMILES
        8 years, 4 days ago

      1. Where has all the rum gone?
        8 years, 4 days ago

        I like this

  17. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 4 days ago

    I was up until 4am tinkering with my team trying to get Martial in and in the end saved a ft... I just know he is going to have a blinder.

  18. GREEN IS GOOD
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Mice down

    1. Numb
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Who uses a mouse these days?

    2. J ⚒ Gimme ur Mané
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Showing your age there!

  19. Make United Great Again
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Sanchez up front! Finally Mourinho.

    1. AIRMILES
      8 years, 4 days ago

      He's no good up front.

      1. Numb
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Erm, yes he is.

        1. Make United Great Again
          8 years, 4 days ago

          Tell him. He was great up there for Arsenal

          1. AIRMILES
            8 years, 4 days ago

            I'm an arsenal fan, and he was never good up front.

            1. Make United Great Again
              8 years, 4 days ago

              Rubbish. So when he was playing up top and SCORING regularly...that was “never good” ?

              1. AIRMILES
                8 years, 4 days ago

                You're entitled to your own opinion, but I imagine every Arsenal fan who watched every match of Alexis' would disagree with you.

            2. Dosh
              8 years, 4 days ago

              Was he in your team when he scored a ton of goals playing striker?

              1. AIRMILES
                8 years, 4 days ago

                He scored more goals from the wing. He was played as striker when we didn't have anyone else. Wenger reverted back to Alexis as a winger when we had better options up front. He only played up front for around a dozen games - I genuinely think you're all a bit deluded about how good he was up front.

      2. Make United Great Again
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Completely disagree. He’s finished as a winger.

      3. Zilla
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Arsenal?

  20. IRBOX ⚽
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Why would anyone want to play for/under Mourinho?

    1. Ron_Swanson
      8 years, 4 days ago

      £350k per week

      1. Az
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        8 years, 4 days ago

        excellent response

      2. Epic Fail
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Simple

    2. HurriKane
      8 years, 4 days ago

      he's one of the most decorated managers in pl ?

      if you dont rate him as a top manager you dont know cr@p about football

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        8 years, 4 days ago

        poor response

      2. Make United Great Again
        8 years, 4 days ago

        That’s not what he asked.

      3. IRBOX ⚽
        8 years, 4 days ago

        I know a hell of a lot about the tactical and analytical side of football. How does that correlate with the careers this man has destroyed?

        1. HurriKane
          8 years, 4 days ago

          well believe what you want if thats what makes you sleep at night

          it goes both ways. how many players he's developed and improved and how many title he has won ?

    3. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 4 days ago

      They like to watch him hold up 3 fingers

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        8 years, 4 days ago

        ‘Sree

    4. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
      8 years, 4 days ago

      I mean, I'd happily play under Mourinho. I haven't kicked a football since my last year of university. But yeah, I'd want to play for him if he offered.

    5. Differential C (Mark)
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Would you like your answer to be rounded off the nearest pound?

  21. Az
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Salah (c)
    The thrill is back!

    1. tiger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Takes you back to good times

    2. jaybradlights
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Same - how exciting to have him as a differential against a makeshift Arsenal defence in the 5:30 kick-off

    3. HurriKane
      8 years, 4 days ago

      interesting choice. i think he'll score but thats just about it. cant see liverpool rolling over arsenal

      on the other hand think aguero is due a big haul and soton is the perfect fixture for him to do so

      1. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Any takes involving someone being "due" are purely speculative. Aguero's norm atm is scoring one goal and being subbed after an hour.

        1. HurriKane
          8 years, 4 days ago

          if you watch closely he gets plenty of chances even in 60 mins

          he wont continue missing them. some big hauls on the way

    4. Differential C (Mark)
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Could be huge haul, good luck

    5. Pras (FPL)
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Nice!

      Cue Kun hattie

    6. IRBOX ⚽
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Need to do something to gain on the leaders.. Kun to punish though I feel

    7. Dynamic Duos
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Sterling(c) good luck AZ

  22. ‘Tis the Season
    8 years, 4 days ago

    no liv team news ANYWHERE!

  23. ☈☾
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Lukaku plays better on the right flank tbh

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Agreed

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Robeeto Martinez masterclass, I tell ya.

      1. ‘Tis the Season
        8 years, 4 days ago

        it was Henry's advice i reckon before he left..

    3. Make United Great Again
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Agreed

  24. Sandy Ravage
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Sterling > Salah for a hit next week?

    1. Epic Fail
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Yeah, do it now to avoid price changes.

      1. Zilla
        8 years, 4 days ago

        Will lose money this way 😉

    2. Respect My Authoritah
      8 years, 4 days ago

      My current plan (for free)

  25. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 4 days ago

    OoP team:

    Fabianski Hamer
    Alonso Mendy Doherty AWB Pereira
    Salah Martial Hazard Richarlison Brooks
    Aguero Arnautovic Success

    Looks pretty good to me!

    1. Zilla
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Needs more ROOPs, get Zaha and Rashford.

  26. The Train Driver
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Is Stanislas ahead of Wilson for pens?

    1. Mo Mané Mo Problems
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Don’t think so. Daniels was on the pitch last week when Wilson took it. I think they’re playing the confidence game with Wilson, rightly so.

    2. HurriKane
      8 years, 4 days ago

      the form wilson is in i cant see him giving up pens to anyonelse

    3. Respect My Authoritah
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Yep, Wilson is poor at pens

  27. suddenorgan
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Brooks taking the Josh King role basically?

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Yep

      1. suddenorgan
        8 years, 4 days ago

        look forward to him repeatedly setting up Wilson only for him to miss

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Looks that way. Howe probably wanted to integrate Stanislas in, but felt harsh on Brooks. King has been underperforming, so makes sense.

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        8 years, 4 days ago

        King is injured

        1. Differential C (Mark)
          8 years, 4 days ago

          Really? Whoops haha. Scratch off what I said xD

  28. Obi-1 Kenobi-0
    8 years, 4 days ago

    Got itchy fingers and gave Salah the armband in place of Hourgeurooooo.

  29. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 4 days ago

    I captained Salah this week. He's scored in the last two games vs Arsenal. Up against Xhaka at LB.

    1. Mo Mané Mo Problems
      8 years, 4 days ago

      Repeat, soothe, relax.

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        8 years, 4 days ago

        😀

    2. ‘Tis the Season
      8 years, 4 days ago

      F%&@ing cant wait!

    3. RoysCallerAnne
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      8 years, 4 days ago

      He has played through the centre in the last 2 games, not wide.
      But still a nice captain choice.

  30. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    8 years, 4 days ago

    English press said he had no chance...

    1. Rash
      8 years, 4 days ago

      50 million down the drain..

      1. Zilla
        8 years, 4 days ago
