Play safe or take risks? The Gameweek 12 dilemma I face as I aim for the top 5k

FPL Family’s Sam Bonfield is gunning for a spot in the top 5,000 in Gameweek 12 and guides us through her current strategy in our latest Pro Pundits article.


Fantasy Football is all about taking the rough with the smooth and Gameweek 11 was definitely the latter for me.

When Caglar Soyuncu (£4.8m) gave Leicester the lead against Crystal Palace this weekend I was not a happy manager, having made the decision to leave him on my bench as first sub.

However, the news of Harry Kane’s (£10.8m) omission from the Spurs squad with a virus meant that Soyuncu’s 14 points came off my bench.

With Soyuncu languishing on my bench, my rank would have dropped from 14k to 20k. However, after his auto-substitution, the 80 Gameweek points I achieved in total meant that I found myself inside the coveted top 10k.

Now sitting at 7,985, there are two possible strategies.

The first is to default to a protective stance, bring in the well-owned players and play it safe to protect that top 10k finish. However that’s just not me and isn’t the way I want to play the game.

So onwards to the next target: the top 5k. In order for that to be achievable, there needs to be an element of risk and getting on the right differential players before they hit a purple patch.

With two free transfers heading into Gameweek 12, there are a number of players who I am considering changing. Having transferred Nicolas Otamendi (£5.3m) out for Diego Rico (£4.3m) ahead of Gameweek 11, I already have £1.4m in the bank in which to upgrade my squad.

This season I have been really stubborn where Mohamed Salah (£12.3m) is concerned. I truly believe that over the course of the season, Sadio Mane (£12.0m) and Salah will counter each other out in terms of goals and Fantasy points scored.

But Salah’s problematic ankle is making it very hard to stay with him now, especially with him being substituted early on Saturday with two points, while Mane went on to score 12. The price difference between the two players is now down at £0.3m at the time of writing and before long it seems likely that they will be level in terms of cost. 

Having already lost £0.2m in team value by holding Salah, I am starting to believe that now might be a good time to transfer him out for Mane. This would also free up a little more in terms of budget to make some other, more differential, changes to break in to the top 5k.

Callum Hudson-Odoi’s (£5.9m) position in the Chelsea starting line-up seems to have become a problem. He is a player that I really like and who adds another dimension to the Chelsea team, but as a Fantasy manager, him coming off the bench in the last two Gameweeks for zero and one-point returns is frustrating. 

At £5.9m, with potentially £1.7m in the bank if I do the Salah to Mane swap, there are a lot of good options available.

I also have Todd Cantwell (£4.8m), who I would like to transfer out, and Mason Mount‘s (£6.9m) possible injury could benefit Hudson-Odoi’s minutes – so I might lose the Norwich midfielder instead.

My transfer options this week include Anthony Martial (£7.6m). Martial’s return from injury ahead of a lovely run of fixtures for Manchester United against Brighton, Sheffield United and Aston Villa should see good points returns for him and at only 6.5% ownership, he has the potential to be a great differential.

However, his injury record makes me wary of owning him. Other options that would be differentials include a sideways move to Christian Pulisic (£7.2m) at 7.3% owned; however he played Champions League football on Tuesday and so there is potentially a risk of rotation there this week.

Another option I am strongly considering is Harvey Barnes (£5.9m). Only selected by 1% of managers, he is the height of a differential and as such could be a great option for me in the push to move up through the overall ranks.

Leicester’s fixtures look excellent until Gameweek 18 and therefore now Barnes seems to have nailed down a starting place, I think he could be an excellent pick.

Wolves are a whole team that are a focus for my transfer thoughts.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side started the season poorly with a European hangover and a small squad who seemed to struggle to keep up with the pace of both Europa League and Premier League football.

In recent Gameweeks, we have seen a resurgence in the Wolves team and as such they are a side I definitely want to bring in a player from. I would ideally like to own, in my opinion, the golden boy of Fantasy Premier League from last season: Raul Jimenez (£7.2m). 

However, as long as Kane recovers from his virus, I am happy with my front three. This means that I am looking at a Wolves midfield that are all differentials, with Leander Dendoncker (£4.4m) the highest owned at 9.6% – although this is mostly as a result of his price point.

For me, I’m looking at Joao Moutinho (£5.3m). Having watched him over the last couple of Gameweeks, he has definitely passed the eye test.  Whilst he has only registered two assists so far this season, the heatmaps look promising for more attacking returns, as do his xA stats which sit at 1.25. He is a player who I am definitely looking at as I look to board the Wolves train ahead of a nice run of fixtures.

Ahead of Friday’s deadline, I am likely to use both of my free transfers.

However, I am waiting until Wolves play their Europa League fixture on Thursday evening and for news on Kane’s health before finalising the transfers.

At the time of writing, Salah to Mane and Hudson-Odoi or Cantwell to Moutinho look like being my preferred options.

      I'd start Janmaat tbh. Although Rico is on set pieces and high on the BP, Norwich have been so poor that I think a a cleanie is in the cards for Watford.

          It's between him and Rico for the last spot I'd say although Pieters may not start after being taken off at HT last game

        Vardy I think

        1. Boberella
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Good call I reckon

  9. sunzip14
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Have 2 FTs this gw and looking to WC next to accommodate Pool players and address the fixture change . Which two attacking players should I get for GW12 only? Price is not an issue as I am open to sell one or both of Aguero/Sterling and have 1.2 itb.

    Current attack:

    KDB, Sterling, Martial, Mount, Saka
    Vardy, Kun, Tammy

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Sterling Kun out - Kane salah may be

      1. sunzip14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        How about Sterling+Kun>Kane+Son? Will get either Salah or Mane on WC next gw. You reckon Salah will return big against City?

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Deulofeu/Jimenez & JWP

      1. sunzip14
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Good punts Amey, but taking out Sterling and Kun for them doesn't feel right. What are your views on getting Kane+Son? Don't think Spurs play good anymore?

        1. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Yes. Selling Kun for Jimenez is reasonable though IMO mate.
          Also, Re Spurs they aren't a good team atm + playing SHU who are compact as anything. So No Son/Kane love for me

    3. SH
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Kun+Martial to Jimenez+Mane this week and Sterling>Salah next week. Why do you need to wc?

  10. cuervos
    • 7 Years

    Pick two
    a) Martial
    b) Maddison
    c) Pulisic

    1. bigbudgie

      For just this week? Or long term?

    Really want to captain Vardy, and most likely will, but Arsenal not been rinsed by one yet have they? Like absolutely destroyed?

        I will be C him buddy, wouldn’t be surprised if this was emery’s leaving do as has been said before on here.

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Yeah he just looks too good not to score, even if it is like only two goals, if Vardy scored both we’d be laughing anyway, even a goal + assist

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      This may be the gw.
      But yeah, i have a sneaky feeling that Vardy is going to fail Because of this seasons © record 😀
      Jimenez is pretty tempting © choice tbh

      1. KDB4PREZ

        Jimmy is a great pick for cap, i’d be tempted if i owned for sure.

            4 years, 4 months ago

            Good stuff, i’m still waiting to just string two great solid GW’s together, should get me back in it. Plus i’m now the only player (as far as i know now) with both Salah & Mane in my side, hoping that can catapult me a little. Can also see pool giving City a nightmare game.

            1. Amey
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 4 months ago

              For sure bro.
              You'll rise fast when the Pool double up pays off. I'm joining you in that next gw bdw (Mo Mane double up)

                Yeah has to be done i think over these lovely fixtures for pool, should do great.

    3. bigbudgie
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Depends what you think is a satisfactory captains haul. For me, anything over a goal is a result. So Vardy could get a goal and an assist in a 2-1 victory, and I'd be happy. Can't be 9-0 every week 🙂

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah true, i’d be overjoyed with a goal and assist! It’s been on him all week so i plan to keep on him really, a man truly in form.

      Lundstram is Essential

      Rico is a volcano of points about to happen

      Soy is good and plays for a good team

      Tomori is garbage, will be a championship division player next season, plays on a bad defense, and his goalie has tiny lady hands.

    Since the inclusion of Lascells & Jimenez my team is looking very colorful if anything 😀
    Nice combination of shirts on home page.

      There’s something extremely satisfying isn’t there when there’s a nice mix of colour in ya team, nice toasty feeling haha!

        Ha ha
        Good to see someone else feeling the same 😀

    Everyone sticking with Kevin De Bruyne?

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Or are we sticking with the value tied up with him 😮

      1. Holmes
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        I dont have any value in him, he was already 10 when I got him, sigh...

        Really considering Kevin to Pulisic/Son but I guess wai

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          *waiting for couple of weeks is better

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          I'm keeping tbh
          Selling Raz instead

    2. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      De Who?

      Never had him.

    3. Camino Aleatorio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      He used to be good

    4. Carlton_Goal
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Yes, for now at least

    5. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I am.

    6. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      You do not get many points from DM's.

    7. De Gea is GOAT
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Considering getting rid tbh.

    8. Differential C (Mark)
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      If Dilva remains unfit, think he's still a good pick.

    Is last week's monster haul clouding everyone's judgement on Lundstram? Do we really expect him to do anything away to Spurs? I think I'll bench him for Lowton. Burnley's home form has been pretty good and WHU don't look great at the moment.

    1. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I will play him because I don't have better options, but I would def play Lowton instead.

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Would play Lowton as well.

      I guess those starting Lundstram dont really have any better options

    3. Lukey27
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Always play forwards and mids ahead of defenders.

  19. Carlton_Goal
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Who would you rather bring in if you could only have one
    A) Jiminez
    B) Maddison

    I have Vardy if that helps

    1. AicilaXI
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Jiminez, but hard to tell without knowing who the alternatives were.

      1. Carlton_Goal
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        The other player would be bench fodder so literally maddison vs jiminez

    2. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Jimmy no doubt

    3. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Jimi

    4. Camino Aleatorio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I’m bringing in Jimi to run upfront with Tammy and Jamie

    5. Carlton_Goal
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Cheers all

  20. SpaceCadet

    Are these moves worth a hit this gw?

    kun Wilson mount > vardy jiminez pulisic

    1. Ini
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Don’t think you need move mount. Just the first two are fine.

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Yep if Mount is out

    3. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Just the first two.

    4. SHOWSTOPPERRR
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Kun Wilson to vardy Jimenez enough

    5. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years

      Thanks all

  21. King Kohli
    • 11 Years

    A. Lowton (WHU)
    B. Lundy (tot)
    C. Rico (new)
    D. Soy (ARS)
    D. Cantwell (WAT)
    E. Connolly (mun)

  22. rodragon
    • 5 Years

    1.kun+dilva to kdb/raz + jiminez(-4)
    2.dilva+mount to Maddison+pulisic(-4)
    3.dilva to Maddison for free, bench mount and start lundstrum

  23. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Tempted to get in Rashford instead of Jiminez as Wilson replacement. Thoughts?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Go Jim

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I’d get Martial instead of Rash

  25. Lingard’s Shin Guards

    What to do?

    Pope
    TAA Soy Lund
    Mane KDB Maddison Mount
    Kun Vardy Abraham

    Button Rico Cantwell Janmaat (2ft 0.7m itb)

    Kun, Cantwell -> Salah, Connolly for free look good?

    1. Lignja
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Kun rested in ucl, i think he score vs Liverpool

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Please no Pep guessing this week

  27. FOO FIGHTER

    Just logged on. See Ederson is flagged...

    1. Eze Really?
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Muscle injury. Taken off half time

    2. Differential C (Mark)
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Looked more precautionary than anything serious. Presser should reveal more.

      1. Amey
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Hey mate
        What are your thoughts on Redmond as a punt @ 6.2m ??

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          get Ings

          1. Differential C (Mark)
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            Good shout, this. Being on pens helps.

        2. Differential C (Mark)
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          Decent, plays OoP as a striker in a duo. Likes to shoot, but his clinicalitt needs work.
          In terms of nailedness probably pretty good. For 6.2.

          Personally going Djenepo for 5.2 next GW.

          1. Eze Really?
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 4 months ago

            Dje I like

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Ederson, Laporte, Sane - that’s an expensive injury list

      Especially when they decided to try playing an entire season with only 3 centr backs, one good, one with potential, and one bad

      1. Eze Really?
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        To be fair pep thought his set miss could cover. Add To Sri to your list

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 4 months ago

          What is set miss and who is To Sri

  28. PocketZola
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    Sterling and kdb out?

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      yes, why not.

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      I’m doing Sterling > Salah & keeping KDB

    3. Aleksei
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      makes me laugh when people say City fixtures tighten up. They can score 3 and more against ANY team. But yeah, ditch them both:)

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Did you laugh when Kun got 6 points v Southampton? Or 1 vs Villa? Or 0 vs Palace? Or 2 vs Wolves?

        Their attacking returns are spread across Kun, Jesus, Sterling, Mahrez, KDB, Gundogan, Bilbao, Dilva at the best of times - let alone when they exit an easy fixture run and enter:

        ata(CL), IB1, IB2, liv, CHE, SHA(CL), new, bur, MAN, zag(CL), ars, CC(QF), LEI, wol

        Their central defence is cut to the bare bones

        Their fullbacks are on a merry go round

        City are not what they were last season

  29. andres
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    So I am loaded, after mount news I need to make a move, what do you reco? Surely Cantwell or Connolly out, for whom?

    Pope
    TAA Soy Lund
    Mane KDB Mount tielemans
    Abraham Vardy Connolly*

    Kelly, Pieters, Cantwell* 7.3 ITB

    1. Wonderful Wizard Hazard
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      You have 7.3 itb?

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Yes, i got some extra financing from fpl

    2. Aleksei
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 4 months ago

      Jimenez probably

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, that is the obvious move. Could do mount to salah as well...
        Probably will need to see him hit some form first as I consider options for pool 3rd slot

  30. andres
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 4 months ago

    On a different note, how did chelsea look after mount came off?

    Cho in attack, pulisic a bit deeper?

    Is that the likely set up for palace?
