With Saturday’s Fantasy Premier League (FPL) deadline following hot on the heels of Gameweek 12, we’re trying to cram in as much content as possible beforehand.

So our regular team reveals this week take the form of an ‘all-in-one’, with three of our top contributors sharing their Gameweek 13 plans and transfers in this article.

LATERISER

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

I’ve already used my free transfer to bring Phil Foden (£8.4m) in for Wilfried Zaha (£7.5m), having left some cash in the bank when buying Darwin Nunez (£8.8m) and Marcus Rashford (£6.6m) last week.

The calculation I made in my head when taking a hit on those is that I’d have to compromise on having another Arsenal attacker but the upside with these two players, especially Darwin, is high.

I do feel miffed with Gameweek 12, as I think I was sold short and should have gotten more points from my new recruits. Hopefully, I get my due soon enough. I am also contemplating a hit to get Ben White (£4.5m) for Adam Webster (£4.5m) as I like Arsenal’s fixtures and expect the move to pay off by Gameweek 16.

      Did you post this question already today? I answered it before

  3. Reeker
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Any advice around? Just need a direction

    Ward
    Cancelo - Trippier - Guehi
    Salah - Martinelli - Zaha - Bowen
    Haaland - Mitrovic - Toney
    (Pope, Andreas, Neco, Dunk)

    2 FT - 1.1m in the bank.

    What to do? In the pub working late. Can't think of anything. Defence is weakest. But Foden is singing in my ear. Bowen, Zaha and Martinelli all still great options

    1. FPL Brains
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      That's a fantastic team. How short are you for Zaha > Foden?

    2. dansully3
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Zaha out

  4. FPL Brains
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    Think I know what you're going to say but let me know your thoughts. What combo scores more points;

    1) Zaha + Wilson
    2) Martinelli + Darwin (-4)

    1. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      1 just for safety of starts (Darwin could miss out / come on as sub)

    2. Scalper
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      If you think about it, A is starting with a goal before the game even starts due to not taking a -4. So I’d say A for this week

      1. Scalper
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        1 Rather

      2. FPL Brains
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        What about Zaha > Martinelli in isolation, with no hit?

        1. Scalper
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Toss up between zaha and marti for pts this week but I’d go w marti.

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE

      I'd say 2 assuming Darwin is GTG

    4. Big Ronnie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      2. I think Darwin starts

  7. Big_Andy_GAWA

    Matt Doherty:

    Does he start or not, folks?

    1. DannyDrinkVodka
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Everybody says no based on minutes played but we just don't know for sure

    2. F4L
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      doubt, Conte will want to give Emerson some gametime before big CL match midweek

      good chance of starting the Bournemouth game the following GW though imo

    3. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      No idea. What other options do you have?
      Perisic owner here.. debating Perisic or Cucurella (both uncertain starters imo).

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Playing 3 at the back and benching him as things stand. Cancelo, Tripps and Guehi. Just don't like benching him, with a decent home fixture, but lot of FPL folk thinking he'll not start... 🙂

  8. antis0cial
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    WC 0.5 itb, g2g?

    Raya
    Cancelo Trippier Gabriel

    Haaland Toney Mitro

    Ward Andreas Tarkowski Neco

    1. IN SANE IN DE BRUYNE

      Kepa over Raya?

      1. antis0cial
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Ive just done the opposite switch heh. Went for better fixtures over better team

  9. DannyDrinkVodka
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I've just brought in Doherty last GW - ship him out immediately for TAA?

    1. SouthCoastSaint
      • 14 Years

      See if we get early Liverpool team news tomorrow - some on Liverpool forums think he may be benched

      1. dansully3
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Not a hope

  10. SouthCoastSaint

    1. JT11fc
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Id like to say hold, but Leeds have been abit smoke with no fire, Saka most popular move

  11. nico05

    Mitro or Rashford until WC?

    1. SouthCoastSaint

        Get rid of one of them for a hit? Feels wrong

        Kane + one of them -> Darwin/Firmino + Cancelo (-8)
        also feels wrong

        Any suggestions?

  23. More Cowbell

  24. Dušan Citizen
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 1 month ago

    I need some serious discussion here.

    People who have both Pope and Trippier and uncertain whom to bench and which other def/keeper to start - I have Pope, Trippier, Ward and Guehi and planne to go with Ward and Trippier. But isn't it more logical to go with Guehi and Pope as he has tougher fixtures, expecting a lot of save points than to expect return from Trippier?

    Even if Trippier gets an assist and concede, Pope can almost match those 3 points with save points.

    1. Dušan Citizen
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Oh sorry, I forgot serious discussions have died many years ago here, only gtg and a or b posts are allowed.

    2. Hairy Potter
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      I've got them four and currently playing Ward and Trippier and benching Pope and Guehi. Was considering benching both the Newcastle players given the fixtures of all four, but I like Trippier's attacking threat.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Isn't it too much to wait on defender's attacking return? He is no Cancelo, TAA or Robbo and he is away to 4th best team in the league. Everton had only 1 (!?) shot against Newcastle and have no serious attackers. I can see 0-0 or 0-1 in EVE-CPL.

        1. Hairy Potter
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah, maybe it's because I'm a Newcastle fan and hopeful of getting something out of the game. Newcastle didn't play particularly well midweek, but Everton were woeful going forward. Maybe Guehi is the better option this week.

          1. Dušan Citizen
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            I'm leaning towards Guehi and Pope now when I thought more

    3. More Cowbell
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Do you plan to play any Spurs attackers?

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        I have none of them, sir

        1. More Cowbell
          • 15 Years
          3 years, 1 month ago

          I like pope then, more potential for a big haul than Ward IMO

          1. Dušan Citizen
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 11 Years
            3 years, 1 month ago

            Agree, plus Spurs often get pen and Pope could save it

    4. Gandalf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 1 month ago

      Spurs will likely score, so Pope's upside over Trippier is +2 if he somehow manages to muster up 6 saves (ruling out the unlikely penalty save, which Ward could equally get himself).

      Trippier can't get those 2 points, but can get 3 points for an assist and a free kick goal is possible also. Also if Newcastle get a clean sheet, Trippier being a bap magnet would likely get the 2 baps if Pope gets 3.

      Leicester and Palace clean sheet odds similar and not expected.

      So Ward + Trippier the better option imo (or Pope + Trippier if think he'll get more save points than Ward)

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, but Trippier could get a yellow too, he is up against Son.

  25. FirminoIsBetterThanYou
    • 9 Years

    Start Trippier (tot) or Castagne (wol)?
