With tonight’s Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline following hot on the heels of Gameweek 11, we’re trying to cram in as much content as possible before this evening.

So our regular team reveals this week take the form of an ‘all-in-one’, with five of our top contributors sharing their Gameweek 12 plans and transfers in this article.

LATERISER

Three-time top 200 finisher and two-time champion of India

With such a short turnaround, I have to wait for injury news. Problems include Anthony Martial (£6.8m), James Maddison (£8.2m), Nathan Patterson (£4.0m) and having three players from Arsenal and Manchester City.

I currently have nine players if Martial is fit and eight if he isn’t. I think I will likely replace Maddison with either Marcus Rashford (£6.6m) or Luis Sinisterra (£6.5m). I’m not comfortable with having a one-week punt and these two seem like decent medium-term picks in this price bracket.

I think Rashford has improved this season and have noticed he’s at the end of everything that Manchester United do. There is a slight fear of rotation though, with him competing with Jadon Sancho (£7.3m) and Antony (£7.6m). If Martial is out, I am looking at a possible Darwin Nunez (£8.8m) punt, as he has tremendous upside and could benefit from the injuries to Liverpool team-mates.

    What are the chances of Firmino/Nunez starting against West Ham & Nottingham forest with Ajax next midweek?

    1. Free Hat
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No point in guessing im afraid. Who knows. Pick one and pray

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I think there will be a fair bit of rotation in the next two games, especially after such an intense game with City

  2. Deulofail
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Any other J Gomez owners here?

    In other news, who to captain?

    A) Darwin (WHU)
    B) Mount (bre)
    C) Mitovic (AVL)
    D) Zaha (WOL)
    E) Trippier (EVE)

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A all day

    2. Free Hat
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Out of those darwin. Although im not even 100 proc sure he starts

  3. liiusions
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Burn a FT or do Bowen to Trossard? Owe Zaha

    Have 0 other moves worth considering then would do trossard to Saka next week

    1. LLoris
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      yes and yes

  4. Nate(U)dog(ie)
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Paul O'Keefe thinks Perisic starts tomorrow, screw it I'm taking the punt, have to have some fun

    1. Miniboss
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I’m considering transfering him in for James. Would u do that?

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        That's my exact move! I'm WCing next week so it's a one week punt but the possibility of him playing up top is too hard to resist

        1. Miniboss
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Nice, good luck! I’ll probably follow 🙂

          1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
            • 5 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Good luck!

    2. F4L
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      on the wing or wingback?

      1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        He's not doing a full team until tomorrow from the looks of it so I'm not sure

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          fair enough, cheers

    3. Free Hat
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Would be nice as 3rd forward!

  5. LLoris
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I am using WC next week. Not losing any team value doing these transfers.

    A) Play with 9 players
    B) Solanke (-4)
    C) Trippier (-4)
    D) Solanke and Trippier (-8)

    1. RamboRN
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      C.

  6. Cali
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Who would you give the armband here?

    A) Kane
    B) Firmino
    C) Trossard
    D) Mount
    E) Trippier

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Probably Kane

    2. OptimusBlack
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

    3. FPL Emu
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

      1. Cali
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Looks like everyone is in agreement here. Thanks!

  7. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Honestly zaha is so average and palace have been poor

    I’m really surprised with so many people owning him. I got suckered into him

    Let’s put this into perspective. He has less points than hojberg and billing, for his price he is such poor value yet people continuously push his name here as almost a must have

    Weird

    1. Christina.
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I bought him and hated it as soon as I did it.
      Waste of money.

    2. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      If he was scoring points and looking dangerous in game I’d half understand

      It’s almost if his name was called out on YouTube or social media and now he’s seen as a must have

    3. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      My plan was to bring in Zaha 3 weeks ago, but i couldn't. And i am still "alive", i thoigh that he will make masacre with this fixtures

    4. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      He’s gone for me next week probably.

    5. Free Hat
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      True and True.
      Both hoping for a wake up call at home now

    6. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      The algo gang love him

    7. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      You bought him but you can't believe other people bought him? Okay.

    8. World XI
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      On pens

    9. F4L
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      vieira basically has Eze man marking Zaha all game, it's weird. hopefully after the shocker vs Leicester in an attacking sense for palace he changes his tactics and allows zaha some room

    10. Santi sensei
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      He was good at the start of season. As season as ppl bought him in, the curse strikes

    11. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Will probably be looking to pivot him into Foden

  8. KDB4PREZ
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Who to play

    A) Justin (Leeds H)
    B) Bailey (Fulham A)

  9. GC123
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Trossard or Mount? Cannot decide on fixture or form

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      T

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Trossasrd

  10. Heiro
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Hi all,

    Who's most essential here?

    A:Mitrovic
    B:Wilson
    C: Zaha
    D: Trossard
    E: Nunez
    D: Firmino

    1. Z

      3 years, 5 months ago

      D

  11. FPL Emu
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Which plan do you prefer?

    A) James to Justin, enough ITB to go Solanke to Firmino/Darwin next wee

    B) James to Robbo, enough ITB to go Zaha to Saka next week

    C) Just go James to TAA

    1. LLoris
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. Hansel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      B

  12. Hansel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    A) James -> VVD, next week Tross -> Saka
    B) James -> Dunk/Guehi, next week Tross -> Foden (and money for Zaha -> Saka for a potential hit)

    Pope Iversen
    Cancelo James Trippier Castagne Emerson
    Salah MartinelLi Zaha Trossard Andreas
    Wilson Haaland Mitro

  13. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    What combination do you like best for my transfers? Would rotate dunk in next 2 if I go A

    A Nunez and dunk
    B solanke and taa

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks. Not convinced on taa or Darwin long term!

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

  14. HashAttack
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    No Kane or Salah ... who the heck to captain!!! - Have Trossard, Zaha, Mount, Bowen and Toney

    Leaning to Wilson but he hasn't scored more that 6 points this season, whilst Trippier hasn't scored less than 6 at home

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Tross

    2. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Wilson 100%

    3. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Trossard

      1. HashAttack
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        If only BHA wasn't the first fixture of the gw

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

      Really don't trust Trossard or Brighton. Id go Wilson

      1. HashAttack
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks - Just seen that Everton have scored in every away match except for Spurs ... I'll stick to Wilson and not Trippier

  15. Diro
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    People who are going to WC in GW 13, Why not WC this GW ?

    1. Alan The Llama
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I want 6 Arsenal/Man City

      1. GOTHAM City F.C.
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        And pool. Gives us one more week to assess the right players

  16. RamaJama
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Changes to my WC team?

    Kepa
    Trippier, Guehi, Doherty, Gomez
    Salah, Mount, Trossard, Andreas,
    Mitro, Wilson

    Subs: Ward, Cancelo, Saka, Haaland

    0.9 mill in the bank to upgrade Mount to Foden GW 13
    Trossard will become Martinell

    1. Dreams
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Looks fantastic.

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Cheers!

    2. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I like Bowen until world cup (not amazing this week) so I’d do mount to Bowen and then you can do trossard to saka/foden next week

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Thanks, will consider

    3. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      not convinced by doherty and gomez long term

      1. RubeRx
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        consider dunk or tarkowski, feels a bit safer, you dont want to be making defensive transfers later on

        1. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Thinking to get Saliba or White for one of them in 2-3 GWs, but good point!

        2. RamaJama
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Darlot an option for one of them?

    4. luk46
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Choosing between Gomez, Doherty, Webster and Schär is fairly difficult… I can‘t decide at all.

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Schar has a niggle, no?

        Webster City away next week

  17. JY84
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Have 2 FT... Which move is the best? For both moves, i can only get e City player back into my squad in week 14 due to my current lack of funds! As such, not sure whether Cancelo or Foden is the more impt player to be retained in my squad!

    (A) Cancelo n Maddison out for Salah & Dunk
    (B) Foden n Maddison out for Salah & Almiron

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

    2. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A

    3. PascalCygan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Don't think I can bring myself to lose either, so I might just pass on Salah, reluctantly

  18. mcsteely
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I've already taken a -8 to get to these ten players. Anything else worth another hit?

    Pope
    Tripper Guehi Castange
    Salah Mount Zaha Andreas
    Mitrovic Kane

    Bench: Ward Martinelli Saliba Haaland Patterson

    1. Z
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      -12 = FH

      With 8 you can live

  19. Dreams
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Keep Aubameyang or sell? He's been trolling me for the past two gws.

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I don’t think he plays midweek. So sell. Wilson is a good option I tbink

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Actually forgot Auba was so expensive - Darwin!

    2. mcsteely
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Keep this week if you don't have a playing. Sell for Firmino next week

    3. Dreams
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Cheers both.

    4. HashAttack
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Sell ... There's only so many 1 pointers a man can take

  20. PascalCygan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Getting Salah FOMO but does A look like the way to go?

    A) Maddison > Zaha for free (field 10 players, then upgrade Gordon to Saka next week and still have some money left)

    B) Maddison + Foden > Salah + Almiron for -4 (but that means booking in future transfers and going from three mid-price mids to Salah and two cheapies

    I feel A is the sensible option. Stick with it?

    1FT 2.6ITB
    Pope
    Trippier Perisic Guehi Neco
    Andreas Gordon Maddison**
    Kane Mitrovic

    Ward Haaland Foden Cancelo Martinelli

    Thanks!

    1. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Captaincy could kill you this week.

      If A who captaining?

      1. PascalCygan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        A would be Kane

        Alternative is sell Cancelo for a 5.2m defender or cheaper to bring in Salah. Worth it?

        1. Athletic Nasherbo
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          B is safer but I do think Kane scores

          1. Athletic Nasherbo
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Could do Cancelo > Akanji

            1. Athletic Nasherbo
              • 9 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              But if need a player to play this week plenty of good 4.5’s. I’d keep Cancelo tho

            2. PascalCygan
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 8 Years
              3 years, 5 months ago

              Thanks, appreciate it. Could always save FT in 13 and bring Cancelo back

  21. Winston.

    1. RamaJama
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      65%

    2. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      85%

      1. Athletic Nasherbo
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        I genuinely don’t know how you can say 65% at all

        1. Z
          • 8 Years

          I think taht is even lower....

          1. Athletic Nasherbo
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            I disagree completely

              • 16 Years

              I disagree with your disagreement.
