FPL Lessons Learned from Gameweek 2

    Pondering a Salah - Mane - KDB all out attack

    Pondering Son and the Everton boys

    1. Flair
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Prefer to add Sterling over Mane, how are you fitting that in?

      1. Ser Davos
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I think the Thiago signing may tip the balancd in favour of the Pool duo over Sterling.

        Few combos. The big compromise is playing Mitchell every week, which I'm fine with

        1. Begbie.
          6 years, 1 month ago

          PVA not back soon though?

    2. Ajax Hamsterdam
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Good luck pondering 🙂

    3. Jolly Good
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Too many premium assets is not good vfm

      Lots of value in 7-8mio assets this year

      1. Ser Davos
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, eeking out too many big hitters doesn't tend to work

    4. GSWC
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Can be done:

      Martinez
      Keane Coady Mitchell
      Salah Sterling Son Mane Podence
      Wood Mitrovic

      Subs: Steer Taylor Lamptey Silva

      0.3m itb

      LOL

      1. Ser Davos
        6 years, 1 month ago

        This is great tbf. Means no EVE or Jimenez, cheers

  2. BHA_Seagull
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Bruno to Son ?
    Is he going to be less influential with Van de Beek?

    Lack of Spurs in my team and still have Martial

    1. Ajax Hamsterdam
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Son

  3. The Finnisher
    6 years, 1 month ago

    I can't seem to manage a team I am happy with that includes all 6 of them, so who is the one to leave in your opinion;

    A. Sterling/KDB
    B. Salah/Mane
    C. Werner
    D. Son
    E. Jimenez
    F. TAA/Robbo

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      You can't have all 6.

      Gotta pick.

      1. The Finnisher
        6 years, 1 month ago

        At this stage I am thinking sacrifice Werner for Ings which makes things do-able

        1. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          6 years, 1 month ago

          I'm not gonna do it. Werner scores in doubles. If he scores, he'll get like a brace or better. Chelsea's attack was the 2nd best in the entire league for xG last season. 2nd best behind only City. Two difficult games isn't gonna deter me. He stays. If they look really average against wba maybe I will sell but I think I have to give him this game.

          1. The Finnisher
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Yeah it is a scary thought and he's a quality player, but Ings is also no slouch.

            I think out of all of the options Werner to Ings for the 1mil is the smallest downgrade in quality, but I could be very wrong.

          2. Ser Davos
            6 years, 1 month ago

            This Chelsea is completely dysfunctional atm though

            1. Camzy
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              6 years, 1 month ago

              They've played 2 games. One against a very decent Brighton side away from home. And the other is Liverpool.

    2. Here is Cash, give McGinn
      6 years, 1 month ago

      C after next GW or F

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pick all 6 and auto-pick the rest

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Martinez 4.0
        Robbo Konsa Justin 4.0 4.0
        Salah KDB Son Costa Klich
        Werner Bamford Jimenez

        1. The Finnisher
          6 years, 1 month ago

          Not too shabby, but then what if I added a G. Everton attacker? Haha

          1. Miguel Sanchez
            6 years, 1 month ago

            Prob not possible then

    4. Karan_G14
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I'm leaving out Son most likely.

      1. The Finnisher
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah a lot of the WC I am seeing has either Werner or Son being left out

    5. One More Hit
      6 years, 1 month ago

      If I could make changes I'd honestly prioritise the midfielders over the strikers, so lose Werner.

      That extra point for a goal is why lots of us have gravitated towards Aubameyang, and why people have kept Salah/Mane.
      Work on the basis that Chelsea are looking like sharing the goals around too.

      Son over Bruno Fernandes is looking a good option (though I guess that's due to the emotive swing one fantastic/poor game each can bring), but if Bale can stay fit, I'd happily have either Bale or Son.

    6. Goonsquad245
      6 years, 1 month ago

      E or F

    7. Klaren
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe go with C and change to E after this GW. Jimenez fixture isn't bad either but WBA seemed terrible so far and West Ham did pretty well against Arsenal.

    8. DannyDrinkVodka
      6 years, 1 month ago

      E is probably the answer, Jimenez is not as explosive and you can easily switch to him from Werner after the WBA match

  4. Jolly Good
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Has Davies lost his place?

    I’m very tempted to get Podence... but would rather play Davies this week and get Podence next week instead of losing 4 pts for a hit.

    Also any news on how many games is Marçal likely to miss?

    1. Here is Cash, give McGinn
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Probably

    2. Pegboy
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I think Davies starts this weekend, but we'll probably have a better idea after Thursdays game.

      Reguilon will be first choice after that.

  5. the dom 1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Asked this earlier.

    Which combo would you rather have?

    a. Hamez & Anguissa (bench fodder) + i already own DCL.
    b. VDB & Podence (alternate them depending on fixtures)

    This would be for the foreseable future

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      6 years, 1 month ago

      b

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        That’s what I’m on now

    2. JustPark
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A for the moment. B for the future maybe. Man United looked sluggish in final third.

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers mate

  6. mackan
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Foden vs third striker like mitro or Bamford?

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Bamford

    2. Ser Davos
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Wood I think, but still considering

  7. FPL Brains
    • Has Moderation Rights
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Whos more essential, Kane or KDB?

    Kane has passed the eye test, looked sensational vs Southampton. KDB, is well, KDB. Absolutely pure class.

    I can only fit 2 of Salah, KDB and Kane in though.

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      KdB by a mile.

    2. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      KDB

    3. Flair
      6 years, 1 month ago

      KDB by light years

    4. Dr. Rog
      6 years, 1 month ago

      KdB by parsecs

      1. Miguel Sanchez
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Higher or lower than 12 parsecs?

    5. Gudjohnsen
      6 years, 1 month ago

      KDB an Son

      1. FPL Brains
        • Has Moderation Rights
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I've got Son too.

        KDB the resounding winner

    6. kime67
      6 years, 1 month ago

      kdb is so good

  8. Dr. Rog
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Some RMT numbers over the first half of the season (wk3 -19). Take it with a pinch of salt but i find them insightful nonetheless.

    Liv Defenders - Points - Value
    Saiss (for reference) - 66 - 13.26!
    TAA - 77 - 10.23
    Robbo - 70 - 10.02
    VVD - 68 - 10.52

    The 4th mid slot (6.5m-8.5m)
    Troare - 61 - 9.46
    Foden - 61 - 9.37
    Pogba - 74 - 9.26
    Barnes - 62 - 8.88
    Mahrez - 75 - 8.77
    Pulisic (adj. for GW3 blank) - 73 - 8.25

    Premium striker (8.5m+)
    Jimmy - 87 - 10.26
    DCL (for reference) - 62 - 8.63
    Martial - 75 - 8.36
    Werner - 78 - 8.25

    1. Buck The Trent
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Can you publish members data to non-members?

      1. Dr. Rog
        6 years, 1 month ago

        i dunno a mod will take it down if i cant

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Not sure what it sees in Pogba

  9. Buck The Trent
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Already did Auba, Adams to Kdb, Jim for -4. Is it fair to say I can save my WC?

    Mccarthy*
    TAA Davies* Mitchell (KWP Justin)
    Kdb Salah Jrod Soucek* (Biss*)
    Werner Jimmy DCL

    * players to get rid

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Save WC

    2. kime67
      6 years, 1 month ago

      save

  10. Steve The Spud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Any other spurs fans tempted to get bale in just for the extra rush of watching his first few games ?

    1. Benjustjamin
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Is he fit straight away?

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Just be 30 min cameos for a gw or 2 I expect, then he’ll start playing 60-70 mins before being fully fit

    2. lilmessipran
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Think he is injured though, is he not?

      1. Steve The Spud
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Just not match fit apparently, could see him getting a few minutes V UTD

  11. OptimusBlack
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Already -4
    ASM & Auba > Podence & KDB
    McCarthy
    TAA Mitchell Justin
    KDB Salah Rodríguez Podence
    Martial Adams Werner (C)
    (Steer) Egan Bissouma Holding
    Any Thoughts or use WC ?

    1. the dom 1
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Save g2g

      1. OptimusBlack
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers

    2. kime67
      6 years, 1 month ago

      looks good imo, no need for wc.

      1. OptimusBlack
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thank u

    3. Don Kloppeone
      6 years, 1 month ago

      We have almost the same team (I have KWP, Taylor, Davies, Soucek, Brewster to your Justin, Egan, Holding, Bissouma, Adams) and I did the same moves last night!

      I am wavering but think that sitting tight on the WC is the most sensible move. This GW could easily be filled with a totally new set of bandwagons and this feels very early to waste the WC.

      1. OptimusBlack
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Thank u Bro.

  12. Eldon
    6 years, 1 month ago

    What are your thoughts / strategy towards price drops so early in the season;

    I've had a rough start - 100 points total,

    ASM, Doherty, Werner all look like falling, and some of the players I wanted to replace them with are looking like rising.

    Would you WC to prevent losing value and potentially 0.2 swings (e.g ASM and Podence)?

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I wouldn’t base the decision on TV, rather base it on who is in form (or from a stats perspective may be coming into form) and who has the best upcoming fixtures. And how many of those players you currently have.

    2. Goonsquad245
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It’s important - if your transfer is a clear upgrade, a double price change could make it worth bringing forward and doing a -4 that week rather than next.

      Also saves you a transfer down the line

  13. kime67
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Difficult start and thinking of -8, Is it possible to climb up the ranks with this?
    mccarthy
    trent digne taylor
    podence kdb son salah
    dcl martial wilson

  14. lilmessipran
    6 years, 1 month ago

    If Macaral is injured for a while? Will Vinegar be nailed at lwb? Could do with a 4.5 wolves defender with those fixtures

    1. KLOPPS AND ROBBERS... the s…
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I just saw this from last nights game
      FPL has him at just a knock
      I was looking to get rid but would be great value at 4.5 even for a few games while I put some other fires out

  15. Flair
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Finally, this looks ideal!

    Martinez (Steer)
    Robertson - Keane - Saiss (Ferguson, Lamptey)
    Salah - Sterling/KDB - Rodriguez - Podence - Foden
    Jimenez - Jesus (Brewster)

    1. lilmessipran
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good.. I will get Timo over Jesus though with your setup

      1. Flair
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Badly want Werner but Jesus stats are excellent and City look much better than Chelsea. Wanted all three of Jesus/Jimmy/Werner but I suspect I've hit the nail with this draft.

    2. Ser Davos
      6 years, 1 month ago

      looks great. Like the Keane pick

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Sehr gut

      1. Flair
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Danke

    4. Karan_G14
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Rodriguez over DCL could work out given that's he's a mid but it's a close call.

      Werner & Jesus are equally good at this point I reckon.

      1. Flair
        6 years, 1 month ago

        I'd love to have Werner and Jesus, however it's calls for a sacrifice when Jimenez is also present. Rodriguez vs DCL vs Rich is a real dilemma.

    5. Cojones of Destiny
      6 years, 1 month ago

      very similar to mine below, very good team

    6. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I thought you said you didn't want Salah?

      I think Rodriguez is not as good as either of the Everton assets. Just went back into the stats from the WBA game, his average position is pretty deep, he had one penalty area touch, and just one shot (that he scored from outside the box). For 7.5m I think you can do better although if he's on penalties, that changes things.

      1. Flair
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Salah -> Sterling and Jesus -> Werner is still an option, undecided on the Salah dilemma.

        That's strong information, thank you. My thoughts on Rodriguez are that he's a world class midfielder that continually puts up brilliant stats and should be on penalties. I prefer him over DCL but not Rich, however that's important food for thought. He can also be upgraded to a Chelsea MID like Pulisic though, hmm.

  16. Cojones of Destiny
    6 years, 1 month ago

    appreciate responses on WC draft

    Martinez/4,0
    TAA, Vinagre/Saiss, Castagne, James, Mitchell
    Salah, KDB, Hamez, Podence, Zaha
    Jimenez, Werner, Brewster

    1. Citytilidie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Is that not over budget?

      1. Flair
        6 years, 1 month ago

        Well over.

      2. Cojones of Destiny
        6 years, 1 month ago

        ITB 3,8 )))

    2. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It's good.

      Saiss over Vinagre for sure. Not a fan of Zaha. Prefer Foden or even Barnes.

      Not much to critique really. It's preference on who is priority. For me, DCL and Son are not optional. They are to me, clearly the two best value players in the game, and so they are in and then I build around that.

  17. Taegugk Warrior
    6 years, 1 month ago

    A. J.Rodriguez + Dunne
    B. Foden + Taylor

    1. You've got red on you.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

  18. HD7
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Original plan was to do Auba to KDB but decided to take a hit this week again
    Auba ASM to Son Zaha
    Hope it works...

    Mccarthy
    TAA Taylor Justin Davies
    Salah Son Hamez Zaha
    Martial Werner

    Button Egan Bissouma Brewster

    1. Cojones of Destiny
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Id still get KDB if hit wasnt taken yet

  19. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Mitrovic or Bamford?

    1. vova
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Mitro

  20. Gudjohnsen
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Werner or Jesus?

    1. Tree House
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Jesus

    2. Tonyawesome69
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Werner

  21. fr3d
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Just because Martinez saved a pen doesn't mean he's suddenly a good pick

    1. Champions League Varane
      6 years, 1 month ago

      It does

    2. lilmessipran
      6 years, 1 month ago

      I am afraid there are no other standout options for GK at this point especially at 4.5

    3. Cojones of Destiny
      6 years, 1 month ago

      he Was a good pick before that he just missed first gw

    4. kime67
      6 years, 1 month ago

      yeah great keeper but i dont expect villa to keep many clean sheets.

    5. Ser Davos
      6 years, 1 month ago

      Pen save irrelevant. He's the best keeper at 4.5. Ryan the only competitor

  22. Tree House
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Drop one:

    A) Mitchel (EVE)
    B) Ayling (shu)

        Thanks!

  24. Camzy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    6 years, 1 month ago

    Two slots and a fodder left I'm tossing up.

    A) TAA + Podence (Davis)
    B) Jimenez + Vinagre (Burke)
    C) Boly + Rodriguez (Davis)
    D) Robbo + Bamford (Soucek)

    1. Tonyawesome69
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A

    2. Cojones of Destiny
      6 years, 1 month ago

      A or B (if Vin is nailed for next few gws)

      1. Cojones of Destiny
        6 years, 1 month ago

        pls comment on RMTWC above Camzy

    3. lilmessipran

      A right now, although If Vinegar looks set to start the next 5 B could be potentially better

    Martinez (Steer)
    Trent - Saiss - Castagne (Mitchell & Lamptey)
    KDB - Salah - Jrod - Podence (Alzate)

    I remember reading some stats on Werner that he’d scored some stupid amount of goals against the bottom clubs in Germany compared to V the top sides - hopefully bodes well for owners this weekend

    I'm thinking about going without Salah on my WC, and getting him back after the next 3 games. Is that too risky?
