    2FT and 1.4 ITB but g2g?

    Pope
    TAA, Otamendi, Lundstram, Pieters
    Salah, Sterling, Cantwell, McGinn
    Haller, Abraham

    KDB, Greenwood, Soyuncu

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Not much you can do there without making big changes (i.e KDB out), team looks good i'd hold.

      1. Chip Butty
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Cheers, I think so. Looking at Vardy but that is a move for next week

    2. jaguar shark
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 28 days ago

      If I had two free transfers I’ll be looking very closely at getting Salah out and putting Aubameyang in

    3. CRO KLOPP
      7 years, 28 days ago

      GTG, maybe get McGovern for second keeper,or KDB to Son/Mahrez

  2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Is this Saka dude any good in terms of attacking?

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      He's very decent and Arsenal have good fixtures, if it wasn't for the fact that Laca will take his place he'd be absolute gold.

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Cheers

        May look at a 1 week punt then

    2. CRO KLOPP
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Great one week punt

  3. Schliegs
    7 years, 28 days ago

    A. WanB + Dendo > Tomori + Saka
    B. WanB + Masuaku > Tomori + Rico
    C. WanB + Dendo > Ota + Saka
    D. Masuaku + Dendo > Rico + Saka

    Pope
    TAA WanB* Lundstram
    Sterl Salah KDB* Cantwell*
    Pukki C.Wilson Tammy

    Heaton Masuaku* Dendo Montoya
    2ft 0.1itb

    *Possible outs this week

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Shed me some light my friends, I need guidance!

    2. The FPL Units
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      7 years, 28 days ago

      B

  4. Klip Klopp
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Aurier to who? soyuncu?

    1. Epic Fail
      7 years, 28 days ago

      TAA

    2. CRO KLOPP
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Can you bench him?
      If 2 ft Tomori or Soy

  5. HD7
    7 years, 28 days ago

    2FT, 0.6 ITB

    Salah Greenwood to Yarmolenko Auba and go 3-4-3?

    Current team:
    Pope
    TAA VVD Ota Guilbert
    Salah Sterling Mount KDB
    Abraham Haller

    Subs: Button, Greenwood, Dendonker, Rico

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Big move, could workout bigtime

  6. TAT
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Heaton
    Lundstram - TAA - Otamendi - Digne
    Mount - De Bruyne - Salah - Sterling
    Callum Wilson - Pukki
    (Button - Greenwood - Rico - Dendoncker)

    Does these option seem alright?
    - If KDB is only out short term - Dendoncker > Saka (playing Saka)
    - If KDB is out long term - KDB > Mahrez.

    Only have 1FT.

    1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      7 years, 28 days ago

      You won't know regarding KDB. Pep won't say anything

      1. TAT
        7 years, 28 days ago

        I know he's unlikely to provide much information, but I'll have to do something. I have value tied up to KDB and selling only to bring back won't be possible (unless shifting funds around on WC), so I can only bring in Mahrez if there are signs from Pep's comments that KDB is out longer than one GW. That leaves me with the option of doing Dendoncker to Saka as a short term punt.

  7. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    7 years, 28 days ago

    What to do here lads? 1FT, 0.5ITB

    Heaton,Button
    TAA,Maitland,Otamendi,Lund,Rico
    Salah,Sterling,Kdb*,Mount,Cantwell
    Pukki,Wesley,Abraham

    1. CRO KLOPP
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Save and reassess

  8. Bob B
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Is it better to downgrade VVD to Rico or go down to 3.9 (Reid)?

    Would be a 5th defender behind Robertson Otamendi Tomori Lundstram

    Have the exact money for VVD + Greenwood > Rico + Wilson but obviously price changes wouldn't impact this if I went for a fodder like Reid instead, thoughts?

    1. Regin
      7 years, 28 days ago

      i hate having players who have 0% chance of playing

      1. Bob B
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Not exactly 0% chance, he's due to play in the U23's in the coming week

    2. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      If your gut likes it, pull the trigger, there's something satisfying about bringing in two players for the exact coin.

      1. Bob B
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Wouldn't do it this week anyway, rather save the transfer this week especially whilst they have Arsenal and get them both for free with a greener run of fixtures

  9. Regin
    7 years, 28 days ago

    asking again... Maitland likely to play on Sunday?

    Is it worth bringing TAA or Robbo for a -8 (already on -4). My either defenders are Zinc (not really nailed), Soyuncu (away to CL winners), Dunk (@ home to CL runners up) & Lundstram (away to desperate Watford)

    I also have KDB. Should I free hit?

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      7 years, 28 days ago

      "cl runners up"
      its spurs and theyre garbage

      dont take a hit for a defender

      1. Regin
        7 years, 28 days ago

        even if its taa or robbo. My only LIV defender is uh, Adrian a GK (pope my other GK) so robbo or trent will be there rest of season. who is better taa or robbo +.3 ITB?

  10. HD7
    7 years, 28 days ago

    G2G?

    Pope
    TAA Ota VVD
    Yarmolenko Sterling Mount KDB
    Abraham Haller (C)

    Subs: Button, Guilbert, Dendonker, Rico

    1. HD7
      7 years, 28 days ago

      +Auba(C) in 3-4-3 sorry

  11. noquarternt
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Pope
    Lundstram Engels Digne
    Mané Salah Sterling Cantwell
    Wilson Pukki Abraham

    McGovern, Ward, Bednarek, Hayden

    2FTs 0.0 ITB.

    Any ideas? Genuinely unsure on what to use the FT on.

  12. andre_c
    7 years, 28 days ago

    I wildcarded last week and chose Aguero over Sterling. I feel like captaining Aguero this week could be good and a sort of differential as so many people are captaining Sterling. Thoughts??

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Captaining Aguero is almost always a good idea

    2. Epic Fail
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Could be.

  13. Lord of Ings
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Just did kdb to son..
    Should I have done kdb to mahrez? :/
    Also,
    RMT please.
    Pope
    TAA lundstram Diop
    Sterling salah mount son
    Tammy pukki barnes

    1. Lord of Ings
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Anyone?

    2. George Sillett
      7 years, 28 days ago

      KDB to Son isn't a bad move . He's greedy and in form despite the Spurs problems . Could well outscore Mahrez.

    3. Dynamic Duos
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Looks good to me , Son is a great pick, just a little worry over Diop , with Fabs but G2G

    4. noahzark22
      7 years, 28 days ago

      kdb out was a wasted transfer

      1. Warby84
        7 years, 28 days ago

        In what way?

    5. Aubamewho
      7 years, 28 days ago

      G2g

  14. Dynamic Duos
    7 years, 28 days ago

    What to with this team?

    Pope
    TAA Hanley Tomori
    Salah KDB Son Mount
    Vardy Abraham Haller

    Button Cantwell Soyuncu Aurier

    1ft 0itb

    A) KDB and Haller to Yarma and Aubameyang -4
    B) KDB to Mahrez if Cantwell is fit
    C) something else?

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Unless you'll br priced out wait as long as you can for more info.

      1. Dynamic Duos
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Yeah I do have time , if KDB is ok I will go Salah to Sterling (c)

  15. Regin
    7 years, 28 days ago

    if i had to choose

    A. TAA, 0.0 ITB
    B. Robbo 0.3 ITB

    B gives me slight flexibilty to upgrade Zinc to Otamendi next time (if Ota rises, for eg.)

    1. Dynamic Duos
      7 years, 28 days ago

      A

    2. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Flexibility is very handy, could be worth it.

  16. Ziyech on the Bench
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Hi lads, Save FT? 1.0 ITB

    Pope

    TAA, Cresswell, Otamendi

    Salah, Sterling (c), Mount, KDB*, McGinn

    Pukki, Abraham

    Button, Lundstrom, Greenwood, Soyuncu

    1. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Definitely save, Lundstram is some peoples vice captain this week

    2. Aubamewho
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Save

  17. HD7
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Premium players strategy:
    Currently: Salah Sterling
    GW8: Auba, Sterling (change Sterling with Salah around GW12-13);
    GW17: Salah Sterling returns

    1. George Sillett
      7 years, 28 days ago

      No point in looking that far forward .

      1. HD7
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Well Im doing Salah to Auba in short 😀

    2. noahzark22
      7 years, 28 days ago

      auba forever!

    3. Regin
      7 years, 28 days ago

      gw17? Lol.

      Do u know LIV blank in GW 18?

  18. Schliegs
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Bitta help folks; first to 3 wins

    A. WanB + Dendo > Tomori + Saka
    B. WanB + Masuaku > Tomori + Rico
    C. WanB + Dendo > Ota + Saka
    D. Masuaku + Dendo > Rico + Saka
    E. WanB + Masuaku > Ota + Rico

      C

  19. FPL Forward Thinker
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Quick get Mahrez in before he rises. Last orders at the bar for 8.5m Mahrez

    1. George Sillett
      7 years, 28 days ago

      And then regret it when Pep benches him.

  20. COYS Down Under
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Who would you transfer out for Auba?
    A) Wilson
    B) Abraham
    C) Pukki
    D) Keep the above 3

    1. Dynamic Duos
      7 years, 28 days ago

      C

    2. Schliegs
      7 years, 28 days ago

  21. noahzark22

    Heaton
    Robertson, van Dijk, Digne, Lundstram
    Yarmolenko, Mount, Son
    Pukki, Aubameyang, Callum Wilson

    Button, Fredericks, Cantwell, De Bruyne

    Good to go? It's down to two of Lundstram, Pukki, Fredericks, Cantwell.

    1. Old Wulfrunian
      7 years, 28 days ago

      yes

  22. _Ninja_
    7 years, 28 days ago

    1FT, 1.7m ITB. Anything worth a FT here? Cheers

    Pope
    TAA - Ota - Lund - Soy - Montoya
    Sterling - KDB - Mane - Mount - Cantwell
    Pukki - Tammy - Barnes

    1. Aubamewho
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Looks good to me

  23. Tsparkes10
    7 years, 28 days ago

    WC during IB? Will be on holiday and have a decent time to think about it... But am I forcing it?

    1FT 0.2 ITB
    Hendo
    TAA Digne Diop
    Salah KDB Sterl Ceballos Mount
    Barnes Pukki
    (Stek, Greenwood, Soy, Montoya, )

    1. George Sillett
      7 years, 28 days ago

      I would WC that lot . Forwards are a bit light - Pukki looks like a home bird only , Ceballos , Montoya , Diop , Barnes , Hendo and possibly Digne need to go.

      1. Tsparkes10
        7 years, 28 days ago

        My thoughts tbh. Happy with Hendo though... Ceballos playing 90 hurt tonight

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      7 years, 28 days ago

      no reason whatsoever to wc

    3. Poseidon.
      7 years, 28 days ago

      It’s borderline but I wouldn’t WC. I’d look to shift Ceballos - rest isn’t really urgent

      1. Tsparkes10
        7 years, 28 days ago

        Cheers. This week? Could do with cover for KDB tbh. Bench is awful

    4. FPL Daniel
      7 years, 28 days ago

      In similar situation myself. Cant figure it out whether to wildcard during IB...

      Main reason is Salah out and spreading the funds

  24. Old Wulfrunian
    7 years, 28 days ago

    Which one?
    a)Maddison
    b)McGinn
    c)F.Anderson

  25. SAY MY NAME
    7 years, 28 days ago

    repost as didn't get replies, would appreciate any views on Digne:

    any point keeping Digne? could do Digne >Tomori with FT this week, ( would probably give me just enough funds for Haller to Vardy next week)

    Fixtures still good for Everton, maybe they'll improve?

    Pope
    TAA/Otamendi/Digne*
    Salah/Sterling(c)/KDB/Cantwell
    Abraham/Haller/Pukki

    button/lundstram/soyuncu/Lansbury 1FT 0.2 ITB

    1. noahzark22
      7 years, 28 days ago

      keep. tomori won't get you any returns

      1. EMBOLOFAN
        7 years, 28 days ago

        you have a crystal ball or something?

        keep digne anyway, do both next week if you want

        1. SAY MY NAME

    looks like algeria have 3 games during the international break (congo on the 10th, colombia on the 15th, and an afcon grudge match vs morocco on the 18th). city vs palace is on the 19th. i assume this makes mahrez unavailable for the palace game? he's their captain and all

    1. Flaming Flamingo
      7 years, 28 days ago

      Mahrez won't be playing in that match against Morocco.

        no wild card.

      why would you WC in two doubtful players?

    3. Aubamewho
