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.

    I know he's 2nd in the poll but if Trossard a bit too spicy with armband? Or should i play it safer and go with Kane? (Don't have Mo)

    1. Ohh1454
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Same debate myself not sure what to do

      I'm going Kane for the consistency. 10 returns in a row

  2. Oggle22
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Which scores more
    Trent, Salah , rondon-8

    3 years, 5 months ago

    On FH:
    Last few decisions:

    A) VVD & Sinisterra
    B) Trent & Billing
    C) Trent & Aaronson

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

      A

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

    Is martial to firming or Darwin worth -8?

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

      No

  5. Keane There Dunne That
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Pick one for this week:
    A) Mount
    B) Zaha
    C) Barnes

    First to 3 wins it

    1. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Mount but a risk!

    2. L S P
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I've gone C

    3. RICICLE
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Zaha

    4. sulldaddy
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Mount

    5. Tommy J
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      That sorts it then...

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

      B

  6. Arteta
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I have 4 options and simply don't know what makes the most sense.

    1. Play Martinez
    2. Play Ward
    3. Buy Kepa for a hit
    4. Buy Guaita for a hit

    1. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      What would you do in my situation?

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

      Definitely 1 or 2

    3. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      3 if they weren’t playing Brentford can see another Toney pen

    4. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      no hits for GK

      Villa have been fairly tight, so Martinez
      Leicester defending is a disaster area still

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

      Toss a coin between 1 and 2

    6. sulldaddy
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      No hits for GK

    7. Arteta
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Thanks for replies lads!

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

    Bringing Salah in for this week is worth not having Cancelo next week, right? Should be able to save my GW13 FT

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

      I think so yes

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

        Thsnks

    2. Bobby Crush
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      yes

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

        Cheers

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

      Could be, but you know what Cancelo is capable of, he's had a habit of following up disappointing games with big scores (GW4 1pt - GW5 12pts, GW6 1pt - GW8 9pts, GW9 1pt - GW10 18pts)

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

        Absolutely. I think I’ve weighed up the Salah + decent budget defender this week and next v Cancelo against Brighton, who I think could score. If I save 13 (which I’m hopeful of doing), I’ll bring him right back as I know how much he could burn me!

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

      think there is better value in Firmino till the WC break

  8. Bobby Crush
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    You chose the captain:

    a) Mitro
    b) Trossard
    c) Darwin
    d) Son

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

      D

      1. Bobby Crush
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        ta!

      2. I am 42
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Guess you ate right as I transferred out Son

        1. Bobby Crush
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          it is just a one week punt here

    2. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      c

      1. Bobby Crush
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        unsure about him starting

        1. More Tragic
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          lol

          1. Bobby Crush
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 5 months ago

            Ok - you are?

  9. Lord Flashheart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    A sinistera and TAA
    B zaha and robbo

    on a WC

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

    Guehi or Andersen?

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

      G

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

      I went with Andersen.

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

        xPts, xG, and xA all higher for Andersen. He's worth the .1 imho.

    3. L S P
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      the cheaper one

    4. aapoman
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Just go with the cheaper one. Impossible to actually predict which one scores higher as I'd say the are dead even on expected points

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

      Guehi

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

      Cheers all

    Hi guys, just pondering ahead some moves for GW 13 here

    Pope
    Cancelo - Trippier - Saliba
    Martinelli - Trossard - Salah - Bowen - Zaha
    Haaland - Mitrovic
    ______________________________________
    Ward: Solanke: Guehi: Neco

    At first I was thinking Pope + Salah + Solanke > Kepa + Foden + Kane

    However………I will surely wanna keep Salah for his fixtures after this GW.

    So how’s about this instead?

    Pope + Zaha + Trossard > Kepa + Saka + Foden

    Can also afford it dead on the money 0.0
    Would leave me with a stellar midfield for sure:
    Martinelli - Bowen - Salah - Foden - Saka

    Just thinking the sooner I’d do it the better as only 4GW’a left after this one and may be a good opportunity to get in early?

    Lots of players I have dropping in price also, like Martinelli, Haaland, Neco, but thankfully lose no value on them, and Trossard rising also.

    Long winded I know but just wondered some thoughts here. Cheers gents!

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

    Maddi and Toney to Trossard and Darwin for free? Have to play Neco and Guehi

    1. KunDogan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Keep Toney and use another ft for def?

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

      Seems decent but Toney could do ok

  13. Nightf0x
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Which in each

    A) 1 week punt: tross or rodrigo
    B) 4.6 def.: Gomez or jonny or dunk or castagne (1 week punt)

    1. L S P
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      A) Tross
      B) Gomez

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

      Tross & Dunk, hoping later will score this week

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

      Doherty?

  14. chelseaboy14
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    who to bench for zaha - mount, trossard, wilson, solanke? (or bench zaha)?

    1. JoeSoap
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Probably bench Zaha but hard one to call

  15. Return of the FF
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Is Trossard really a better option than Mount? Is Mount at risk of rotation?

    1. Traction Engine Foot
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      It's mainly the fixture. Anyone at Chelsea is a rotation risk, Mount probably less so than others.

  16. JoeSoap
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    For one week only

    A. Maddy/James>Trossard/Dunk -4 (play Nico, have Gross)
    B. Maddy/James/Martinelli>Almiron/Dunk/Salah -8 (bench Nico)

    Will captaining Kane in A, Salah in B

    1. I am 42
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      if you think Salah will score 4 more points than Kane, B

      else A

  17. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Captain Kane or Salah?

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

      Salah

    2. Saka Punch
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Gotta be Salah

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

    Agh, so tough to choose between VVD and Robertson. The fact VVD is nailed to start every game seems so important. Robertson likely sits out one of the next two. But is much much more exciting

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

      I'd go safe

    2. La Roja
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      What about Trent?

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

    I am using WC next week. Not losing any team value doing these transfers.
    Last time asking what do you think

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

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

      A

    2. FCRS1991
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      9 players seems low. -4 wont kill you, especially if you feel the player might bring in the points.

  20. n14mul
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    -4 to take zouma out worth the risk?

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

      Sounds like he might play

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

        Got a virus hasn’t he?

        1. GENERATION X
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 5 months ago

          Bad dose of kickcatitis

      2. n14mul
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Everything I seen said more likely to be out...

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

          I find Moyes tends to stretch the truth a lot, if he suggests a player is unlikely to make a game but he hopes they'll have a chance of making the squad, I'm assuming they're going to start. It's happened a lot with him (granted I know this isn't a great week for such a conundrum)

  21. Traction Engine Foot
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Andreas and Haaland to Salah(C) and Solanke -4? I can do Kane to Haaland next week.

    1. sulldaddy
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      Losing value on Haaland?
      Not sure Id do it.

  22. Sakib.jafar
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Start

    A) Schar

    B) dunk

  23. Crazy RedDevil
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Pls suggest the changes to my team:
    Raya Ward
    Cancelo Fofana Trippier Dier Neco
    Maddison Martinelli Zaha Andreas Foden
    Haaland Toney Mitrovic.
    .........…......................
    I've 4 mancity & arsenal players, Maddison (suspended) & fofana(injured) for GW 12. Should I use free hit or take -8 to field a strong squad or just take -4 to include Salah & Anderson from crystal palace?

  24. FCRS1991
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    I dont see Mitrovic being mentioned as Captain anywhere?
    Anyone considering?

    Dont own Salah, so I'm torn between Mitro, Kane and Trossard.

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

      Would be reluctant to captain a player that has openly said he's been playing with an injury for a while and who's playing through the pain. Someone in an ML of mine did it a couple of weeks back and ended up with 0pts from him (yc + subbed early)

    2. More Tragic
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      just don't capt Trossard

      1. DycheDycheBaby
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 5 months ago

        Why not?

        1. More Tragic
          • 10 Years

          fools gold

    3. I am 42

      K

    4. YouReds
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 5 months ago

      I’m going Mitro. Just over Kane, have Trossard also

  25. Not again Shirley
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Firmino ok to bring in or are his minutes in doubt?

  26. GENERATION X
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    Hello hits my old friend,
    I've come to waste my points again....

  27. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 5 months ago

    A) Zaha Mitro
    B) Rashford Wilson

    1. More Tragic
      • 10 Years

      b

    2. RubeRx
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      A but its close, can you go antony instead of zaha?

  28. Babit1967

    Final call

    Captain

    A Trossard
