About 4am (GMT) I think

approx. 2am UK time I think

We need more time to be accurate but history tells us around 01:30 GMT

Lovely, 4 answers and all with different times. Hope that was helpful to you 🙂

Later than usual this morning

Maybe it will have saved you

United are still very much a wait and see

Seen a few comments about how we now need to be 'decisive' with transfers, when earlier in week we needed 'patience.'

Takes a while for the algorithms to work themselves out

The algorithm will obviously be far from accurate until there’s been a fair few rises and falls.

1st price change each season is an unknown I'm sure. I might be wrong but in the past I remember lads saying it takes the price change prediction sites a few gmwks to get on the ball

& why exactly were you waiting if it was so vital to you to take -4 bringing them in at the exact price.
Either you have patience & plan for 0.2 in price rise, or you are knee jerk trigger happy on Sunday night.
You cant be both

Prolly a blessing for you buddy. I wasn´t particularly impressed with Martial´s performance. I´ve WC´d and shipped him Fraser and Moura (and their 13pts) outta there for Zaha, Sterling and Almirón. I´m not impressed by United, they needed an incredible amount of luck. Oh yeah as an Arsenal supporter I have no qualms about downgrading Aubameyang to Lacazette.

You don't bench your premier league champion!

The Zinch

What's up with the free hit bug? What happened?

That's good news, thanks. Hope they sort out the bug that doesn't show points scored per player

But no mention of the specific issues.

“... doesn't mention all the transfers numpties made thinking they were free turn into free hits! ...”. There are stupid people in all walks of life.

The risers are off the front page, but I don't think that Origi figure has changed, nor the ones below. Can't tell if that means Origi is really on 61.5% and going nowhere, or if he's close to a rise. Still need further time.

0-2

2-1 for Chelskis

2-0 Pool win

Chelsea will do well not to be embarrassed by the scoreline

1-3. Depends on teams though

So you are going to play 5 at the back and leave a lot of value on the bench?

And what have you learned?

5-5-0 not permitted in fantasy I think
Suddenly & randomly benching best players is though

Casuals, eh?

He scored points in week 1 - literally that is it. After week 1 every year whoever scores goes up in price regardless of how good/ bad an option they are.

People don’t seem to realise his minutes are going to be significantly reduced.

Because he scored 12pts and that is the only thing most of FPL managers are looking at

Every striker scores gets bought, every striker blanks get sold, regardless of other factors
Don't worry, as it boils down to the 2 million who consider what they are doing toward Xmas it will get more sensible.

'Casuals'

You got money in the bank? You know Martial price is 7.6m now?

Fraser next week

Personally I'd wait. Wolves away won't be easy.

Hold fire

I doubt it. As soon as one of Cahill, Sakho or Tomkins comes back he will get the boot, surely

Good differential but I think with West Ham its a bit of wait and see. They have great fixtures though.

Give it another week or two IMHO

Could be good. But will wait and see where he plays.

Got to see if he gets into
a) the squad,
b) the starting line up
c) nails a place

before putting him on the radar.

He is my second 4.5m Mid after dendo, so currently at the back of my bench. was him or Hayden so took the chance

Yes. But you give up on some mid priced mids and/or defense.

My team but with Auba for Kane

Pope
TAA VVD Digne Montoya
Salah Sterling Perez Trossard
Auba Jota

So really needs a decent 4.5 def and 6.0 mid to emerge.

Yes but forget any other mid priced or premium mid/attacker

My team
Ederson
VVD,Gomez,Maguire,Zinchenko
Salah,Sterling,NDombele,A.Pereira
Kane,Barnes

Subs Buttin,Walker-Peters,Dedonker,Greenwood

Pereira is a bit of a risk for utd but can see him starting against wolves

I have all three but not solid.
Pope Heaton
Robertson montoya Diop vvd lun
Salah Sterling McGinn Perez Donk
Kane Murray King

Not worth the hit imo

Wait - think Trossard should start at home and could do very well playing left wing against Fredericks.

I'd do it this week. Villa have a good fixture, McGinn very attacking, Trossard being benched first week really doesn't bode well.

I did this, but more for the .5 to use after the weekend

I'd wait

Buendia may yet be the one to be on. I was more impressed by Norwich as an attacking unit than Villa given what they were up against. He's likely to be central to what they do.

Don’t worry about it - Wilson could haul and Rashford blank this weekend and all will feel right with the world again

Could be saved. Martial better value at 7.6.

They had basically identical attacking stats last week. Martial had more penalty box touches even.

Username checks out 😉

In all seriousness, 8.5m is a funny price point. You’ll be tempted by Lacazette or Vardy when they score and the captaincy material of Kane or Auba for 2.5m more.

lol, the game isn't just based to suit your team and your moves. You should of had a pair and gone for Rashford from the beginning instead of sticking to the template.

Everton signed a backup left back. Digne has no competition.

Sidibe was bought who is a genuine competitor for RB spot.

Digne has just the aging Baines behind him and he's on set pieces.

The french international Sidibe signed on deadline day.

Cheers lads!! Thanks for all.

GtG

Nope, looks strong!

See how it goes tonight?

see what happens vs Leicester, Barkley was always a punt

Yeah I've got Barkley too.

I thought (from highlights) he seemed to do ok.

I'm probably keeping for now as they've got a good run of fixtures.

Perez and Vardy

Surely they can’t be as bad this week

tbf Wolves are a defensively sound team

Perez/Vardy should do much better vs Chelsea/Zouma

Vardy missed an open goal... but Ings most disappointing stats wise

Told you Leicester had bad fixtures. Looking forward to bring them in on gW9 when they have no ownership and dropped in price.

Ings for me

Ings vs sub

Always the defender

Suspect FPL just prevented price changes until now. FPL Stats and the other sites will adjust, but they have imperfect info, so always a bit of risk.

Clearly the algorithm has been updated since last season. Suggest as an OOP mid he's worth the extra .1 or .2 you'll end up buying him for.

GW1 always tricky as I think they change the algorithm/triggers so it takes a while for the predictors to catch up

plan was to transfer him in for moura so had exact funds, was waiting till after tonight's game in case any injuries.

Zouma probably given 1 more game

Zouma did look awful tbf

Tonight might give a clue

I’ll go with Salah

Kane imo

Probably not Sterling, but you can make a case for either Kane or Salah, I'd probably opt for the latter.

Sterling

All 3. I’m playing my multi-captain chip.

Not sure if this is deliberate or a bug.

An honest answer from FPL Towers might be, "listen, _we_ don't know if it's a bug or intentional."

1 point

Yes.
More than 7 minutes? Don' know.

I can see that possibly most of this season he will come on with 10 mins to go and nick the odd goal.

looks great !

Adrian being in your team suggests you already used your transfer. As such good to go

Aubameyang over Kane.

Fantastic team!

You probably couldn't get a better team than that. Have you used your wildcard?

Perfect!
As for the Kane vs Auba debate. Arsenal looks like having more firepower, but mor likely to share that output too.
Both are good choices , and at some point (GW5 to 17) Auba + Kane could be a must, although sacrificing Salah/Sterling might not be easy.

A

A

A - I fancy Moura to get the better of Zinchenko.

If Lamela is dropped for Eriksen, I’m hoping for a little more than 2 pts, yes.

I wouldn't expect anything more than two points, he didn't return against them last season in four matches, but you never know.
