    Any price changes expected tonight ?

    1. Wirtzle Gummidge
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Mahrez, Gomez and Darmian possibly.

    2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 13 Years

      FISO has Mahrez, Darmain and Gomez all rising, but FFF and FPLstats have nobody rising.

      1. Pasqualinho
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        FISO often underestimate the first price rise threshold. I think they estimate the same figure as at the end of last season

    Any advice? (I guess I have to wait on Bellerin news, but assume he's fit)

    Ruddy

    Bellerin // Gomez // Targett

    Walcott // Ramsey // Mane // Hazard

    Pelle // Rooney // Benteke

    Rudd, Westwood, Huth, Mings

    If Bellerin is out of palace clash then Mings > Oxford?

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years

      keep mings

      Very nice call. Sometimes it pays off to ignore the template teams on here...

  12. The Bandit
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Aguero on 0pts in UFPL, docked a poit for a 'bid chance' missed. Well I certainly missed it! 😡

      Wow ufpl seems harsh!

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Having a shot saved is hardly necessarily a big chance.. Sterlings was a big chance, so was Morrisons header.

        1. owls on the up
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I don't remember seeing anything where I thought wow that was a good chance missed!

      I captained Silva in the end, want that goal! 🙂

      What's your plan for this week? I might downgrade Lukaku and Walcott but part of me just wants to save all 16 transfers.

      1. The Bandit
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I think I'm going to wait although I don't have a Utd player to captain gw1, looks like it's Sinclair for the armband 🙂

        • 11 Years

        Lol I probably will have him by GW 4, but ATM I'd rather have Silva.

    4. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Wait a few weeks when he gets a hat-trick while captained by the vast majority of the top fpl players. He'll feel very essential then.

      1. Ohhhhh Gary Macca!
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        You're pretty much stating that is going to happen. I didn't have him last season and I was in top 20k...

    32 points because I spend no time of my team what so ever, Yeh right.

  17. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    REPOST

    Anyone remember the price changes at the start of last season? I seem to recall them being extremely slow.

    Is it possible that the thresholds are higher at the start of the season to reduce price volatility. There are so many players engaged early who don't hang around so there would be some logic to it.

    I remember WC'ers being annoyed. Anyone else have similar recollections?

    I think it's well accepted that the price rise sites are just guessing at the moment and don't know what the algorithm is

    1. Mary
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Nope, not possible. Because of the volastrical majesticology of the mechanism it actually goes through something called a fosiliac period in which the value simply hibernates into a deep coma of cheese aroma. But hey, what do I know, I'm just a guy who put a bunch of smart-sounding words together?

      1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        You may not understand what I said but it does in fact make sense and there will be people that do understand it.

        Don't be petty or rude. I wasn't.

    2. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      The threshold is based on the number of 'active' managers. As its GW1 there's no managers counted as 'inactive' so the threshold seems higher.

      1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Ok that's logical. If it was perfectly proportionate that wouldn't explain prices changing any more slowly though. Hmmm, maybe I imagined it...I just remember a lot of folks being peeved :/

  18. pundit of punts
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Just got a feeling that Walcott may start next gw.

    Wenger would want a response and may shake things up a bit.

    Sanchez and Walcott in for Ramsey and Ox maybe.

    1. Chelsea Dagger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      agree. Wally will be better on the counterattack

    2. JJO
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Exactly
      And score a goal and punish all knee jerkers

  19. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    So anyone have any plans now the game week has finished?

    I'm hoping that with no goal I can put off Aguero for one more week. Thinking I might free up 1.5m to do Wilson to Gomis, Can do this with:

    Hazard to almost anyone
    Walcott to Payet
    Ivanovic to Darmian/Kolarov

    As much as I don't see points for Ivanovic this week I'm most tempted by the Walcott move, even though he might start he's just a headache really.

    Will cost 4 points either way but think I'm okay with that.

    1. Hibbo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Think I'll save the transfer and try to keep faith in my team for gw2 and play the long game.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I know I should do that but don't have all that much confidence in Wilson over next too and Walcott is just a bit of a pain.

        Will end up wildcarding GW3 or 4 probably.

        1. Hibbo
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Suppose for your Wilson I have Deeney hoping he can open his account.

      2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        This

    2. The Raging Bull
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Solid moves. Make that Hazard to Sanchez.

    3. Hy liverpool

    4. Frank Black
      • 12 Years

      I'm considering Ayew but i don't know if i want to ship out Theo or Manè.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights

        Definitely not Mane yet

    5. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years

      Considering same.

      Haz -> Payet
      Wilson -> Gomis

  20. 1569Tippins
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Basically got nearly all of my 50/50 decisions wrong this game week...

    Hennessy instead of McCarthy (benched anyway)
    Koscielny instead of Clyne
    Chaldi instead of Cabaye
    Lambert instead of Cisse

    But when I look at those decisions and my team in general, I still feel like I've made the right calls long term. Going to save my transfer this week and hope to build on my below average 27pt start...

    "It's a marathon not a sprint"

    1. FISSH
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      chadli instead of cabaye is the right pick. Fixture wise anyway..

  21. FISSH
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    my highest scoring player (6) on the last bench spot. Oxford.

    What a TERRIBLE gameweek.

    Onwards and upwards.. hopefully

  22. Dr Joness
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    I correctly predicted the Liverpool side for Sunday. As a Liverpool fan, I can categorically tell you right now, Alberto Moreno will start against Bournemouth. Transferring Gomez in will end in tears.

    1. Keno
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Why would he change a side that kept a CS?

      1. Dr Joness
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Because Gomez isn't an attacking players whatsover. His assist was pure luck, Coutinho did all the work. He was the type of defender you'd want against Stoke Away, and against Jon Walters.
        At Anfield we will deploy a full back with more pace and can add width to the team, also somone who is left footed on that side who can play early crosses into Benteke. Gomez is right footed playing on the left, he made 0 crosses, and no attacking runs into the box.

    2. JJO
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I agree

    3. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Now you tell me... *sigh*

    4. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      allow it, gomez will start

      1. Dr Joness
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        He won't. Think about it tactically. Brendan will want to play Moreno in the Bournemouth game.

        1. Mr Wizard
          • 15 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          You are making sense but Brendan doesn't seem to swap his team a lot after a strong defensive performance and a win. Will be interesting if your right !

          1. GREENDREAMS11
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            he will be happy to keep bleeding the lad against a side they should beat at home imo, the again im no Pool fan

            I just feel with Francis and Ritchie linking up so well on the left, a right footed player will struggle on that front. Also I'd have a more experienced defender in Moreno to play that game. There will be a lot of pressure to get 3 points next Monday, one element of surprise would be to throw Moreno into the mix for Howe to get a headache, because that'll restrict Francis going forward and will increase Bentekes chances to get some headers due to Moreno crossing ability. Also I suspect us to dominate the game, and Moreno would play on the left wing most of the game, kind of like Kolarov tonight. I genuinely can't see Gomez being very effective in that role.

              I did contemplate Ritchie giving Gomez a tough time, so you could be right. I just hope not though.

      i was told by a Pool fan on Saturday Gomez wouldnt start, he got a knock in training, blah blah. so he sat on my bench, I'll be taking the chance this week but thanks for your insight Doctor..

        Can I just add, Stokes two best chances of the match game from a Joe Gomez error. He didn't play as good as you may think. He was in no man's land when Walters won the header on the throw in line and then almost set up a goal. The game was a very dull dull match, with very little clear cut chances. On a different day, Gomez wouldve looked a lot worse had it been a better attacking opponent.

          I never said he played well, the assist was a sideways pass and to be honest I havent seen much of him but I hear he had a good pre season. Rodgers is obviously putting his faith in the lad, I hope he continues to, thats all. It would seem strange to throw him in away to Stoke where they were recently pumped, to keep a cleanie and then remove him for the next home game against arguably easier opposition.

    0-0 in Citeh-Chelski next week would be fantastic

    Hey all,

    I'd appreciate an assessment of my current thoughts... It might have to happen tonight given Mahrez rising.

    I'm thinking for GW4 I want Aguero and Silva. They will score like mad. Therefore:
    Sterling to Mahrez this week, Walcott to Silva next week. And maybe Aguero in for Rooney for -4 (possibly wait though). Thanks

      Do you want Aguero and Silva or do you want both these and Mahrez? Because if you don't necessarily need Mahrez you can wait. Not that I think he'll go up tonight anyway.

        i wouldn't captain Tekkers, it's going to take some time for liverpool players to click with Benteke.

    Will everyone just hold tight and stop knee jerking players in. It's only the first GW and sterling/wally are getting the punt already?!

    If we continued like this our team would be different every week chasing last weeks lost points.

    Hold it together and save your transfer. If next week you are sure your team isn't right then you have 2 FT to play with.

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years

      You have your 2FTs I want £££££££ until January then I build an expensive team!

      1. Mr Wizard
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I've been there last season. You end up point hitting yourself into the bottom of the league and come January you have an extra 0.5+ to spend and the players you need to sell to make that money are likely to stay in your team. Pointless

    2. Ruth_NZ

      Knee jerking to chase last week's points is a bad strategy.

      Sticking your head in the sand is also a bad strategy.

      Everyone that didn't know now does know that Walcott's gametime is not secure. If he can't get picked when Sanchez is unavailable to start then when can Wenger be relied on to select him?

      I don't say he won't start this weekend. I do say he won't start every game and for 9.0 you want someone that does.

      Therefore removing Walcott (who may get a price drop) in favour of someone else (maybe one who may get a price rise) seems a fairly sensible move. You are going to have to do it sooner or later.

      1. Mr Wizard
        • 15 Years

        This will change when he starts next week and scores a brace. He is explosive. I put sterling in that bracket too.

        1. The Raging Bull
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          trying to remember if Sterling has ever been explosive?

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

          Good for you. 😕

          "Explosive" is one of the most stupid phrases used on FFS. It is irrelevant for any player other than a captain. Points accrued divided by gameweeks in your squad divided by price is the number that matters.

          Incidentally, to be accurate your post should say "if" he starts next week and "if" he scores a brace. Asserting that it will happen when it is very much a matter of surmise (and bias) is no argument.

    Is Touré going to keep an assist for the first goal?

    anyone else desperately trying to save a transfer and then look at doing 2/3 post Friday's deadline? I remember Mark promoting the virtues of that strategy last season and remember it being helpful at times for me too. Yes you might lose/not gain some early value but there's still time for that.

    For me for instance, Wally to Sanchez seems to best longer term move, yet i'd need 2 trades to do it - thinking it's better to do so with the flexibility 2 frees comes with?

    1. GREENDREAMS11
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      yeah. I was thinking this earlier but the trade off is that you could miss hauls, i.e. Fancy Kane right now, do I wait for free transfers or do it while he has a nice home fixture, tough decision

    Worst. GW1. Ever.

    My GK situation in my abomination of a team is:

    Courtois and Hennessey

    Would you do:

    A) Courtois - Cech/Mignolet/Adrian
    B) Hennessey - McCarthy
