Tempted into dealing our Wildcards by yet another “mediocre” Gameweek, Granville and I go through almost the entire episode before Jonty reveals he’s weakened and gone “active”. It’s a revelation that almost has us both logging off and reaching for our own panic buttons.

Before that dramatic finale, we find salvation via another bout of “rough the smooth”, cheering ourselves with tales of Gameweek totals which dip below even our miserable tallies.

We also take a further round of community questions, forcing me to “fess up” on Theo Walcott, while Granville laments Wayne Rooney’s form and the three of us tackle the merits of Mahrez, Ozil and loading up on City assets.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    should i use my two FT this week for hazard and hendo to sanchez and ayew?

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Depends on the rest of the team, but those seems reasonable

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

        Courtois Hamer
        Clyne Jagielka Koscielny Azpilicueta Baker
        Hazard Hendo Yaya Wanyama Barry
        Lukaku Giroud Rooney
        🙂

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Alot tied up in Defense there mate. I'd almost think about sorting that out first.

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

            wildcard worthy or simply downgrade one then upgrade hendo?

            1. Swan - Villa Proud
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Yep, maybe Azpil to Francis or Huth, then Hendo to a 8.5 or even Payet/Ayew/Mahrez

            2. Swan - Villa Proud
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Not a fan of the early wildcard, and you have players with great fixtures coming up

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

                good call, cheers for advice

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Silva and Depay

  2. KeepCalm
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    I'm torn between Rooney or Aguero captain...

    Feel like giving Roonpig his final chance and then ship him out if not successful

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

      No debate. If you have Aguero put the C on him

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Fair point. I just look at it this way....this is likely the LAST week that Kun is still a somewhat (albeit smaller) differential. Come GW4, everyone will start getting him.

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

        But Everton seemed really good in defence last time out...

        Its a matter of who could potentially score more points, Rooney at home or Aguero away? Damn i cant make up my mind

      Probably a good time to use the WC. 😉

      1. Zoostation
        • 11 Years

        🙂 thanks

        • 12 Years

  6. 123thro

    Any chance Mane is dropped because of these transfer rumours about him to Utd? Cheers 🙂

    1. Aaron Ramessi - Straya
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      he wasn't dropped for the europa league game, so doubt it

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      That's partly it. But also because he's been unlucky to score so far and others want to capture risers (i.e. Mahrez, Payet) to build TV. I'm sticking for this week, his stats are very solid

      1. 123thro
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Sorry for being unclear mate, but I meant him being dropped by Koeman for Southampton, kinda like De Gea has been dropped by LVG.

    Top 10K prediction
    How many will captain Aguero?

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

      Who cares about the Top 10K this early in the season?

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I'm 59 behind them right now. Need to start closing that gap.

      2. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        FPL winner could be already there.

        1. Mull
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          One of them will find their way onto FFS and win with the template.

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Exactly.

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

              One might, but how will knowing what the average in the Top 10K help you differentiate?

              1. TorresMagic™
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • Has Moderation Rights
                • 16 Years
                10 years, 4 months ago

                You need to beat the average for starters. You can also know the ownership of players & make ground with differentials.

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

                  Sorry TM, I didn't mean to sound combative. I know you are talking sound FPL logic, I'm just not that worried about it just yet. If we start raking in points we will rise.

                  1. TorresMagic™
                    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                    • Has Moderation Rights
                    • 16 Years
                    10 years, 4 months ago

                    All good.

            • 12 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Andy the mod is already here 😆

            1. TorresMagic™
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • Has Moderation Rights
              • 16 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              The other Andy rarely posts. He is too maverick also.

        2. Diva
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          He or she could, or maybe they're languishing down at 2m. The top 10K at the minute could be full of people who have been burning through their chips etc. I'm really not worried about them just yet. Play your game, seek to maximize your own points return and the rank rise will surely follow.

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Still need to find the good differentials that they don't have & find the players who are their weaknesses.

      3. sleecc
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I guess most of the experts are now bottom 10%.

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      15% many wont have him

    2. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Still only has 24% ownership ... most of whom would captain him methinks. I'd say 60-70% will captain him in the top 10K

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Only 2 of the top 50 owned Aguero in GW2.

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

          Simply owning Aguero and captaining him might be differential from the current Top 10K...

          1. TorresMagic™
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • Has Moderation Rights
            • 16 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            For sure it will be if he fires.

            1. The Man Pastore
              • 11 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Let hope he does!!

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

      Only about 20%, I hope 🙂

  8. DameCorp
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Dont see the point in WC'ing this lot.

    Playing the right defenders?

    Ruddy
    Azp - Mert - Targett
    Haz - Yaya - Mane - Mahrez
    Kun (c) - Roo - Wilson

    Rudd - Muniesa - Huth - Beteleb

    1. gbpearce - AMERICAN DYCHO
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      no need to WC that lot, looks good for this week.

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

        Yep, Roo's last chance this week.

        Muniesa or Targett on field?

        1. gbpearce - AMERICAN DYCHO
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I have the same issue.... currently have Muniesa

    2. Wrong Captain Choice - Ag i…
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      yes

  9. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Why Pedro is only 9.5?? Isn't Sanchez started at 10.5? And Silva is currently 10??

    He'll bang in lots of goals

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      In the words of Murray Walker, go go go!

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        😀

        Haz -> Pedro is on the cards now

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

      Think its pretty reasonable.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        FPL towers surely underestimated him

    2. Root
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Concensus here was that he's overpriced.

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        got a link to earlier chat? I missed it and thinks he's good value.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        not in my books. He's surely nailed on (reason for moving), and he always score.

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

        LOL @ THEM , they don't know who i am 😀

    3. Aaron Ramessi - Straya
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      for a player of his pedigree, surprised he wasn't higher

    4. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Sanchez had a slow start last year, getting used to the pace and physicality of the PL. This could be similar. Plus, Jose seems to have gone a bit crazy in these early days, so who knows how he'll play it.

        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        then weeks 5-8 Sanchez got 4 double digit hauls...

        1. Swan - Villa Proud
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Yep, exactly the point why not to get him at first.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I agree that picking him from the off may not be the best move, but surely he'll be a stud given how the Chelsea system suits him. He's so underrated, and very similar to Hazard, only with more experience - and trophy of course.

    5. sleecc
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure how fast he adapt to PL. Many Spanish players failed to adapt, especially those older players.

      1. Huddersfield
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        WHO ? Ivan Campo ?

        1. sleecc
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Soldado, Morientes, Negredo, just to name a few.

          Those managed to adapt are younger players if you realize:
          Torres, Costa, Alonso

          Or with PL experience before:
          Fabregas

      2. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        What are you talking about?

        They may take some time (maybe a onth or two), but what history tells us about Silva, Torres, Michu, Cazorla, Azpi, DDG, Adrian, Costa, etc.? When there's quality, it's only a matter of time.

        1. sleecc
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Younger Spanish players tend to adapt to PL easier compare to those Spanish players who arrived at older age.

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Well I think it dpeends on many factors - team style of play, trust of manager, player's on and off the field issue.

            Luis Garcia went to Liverpool at age 26 and did fairly well. But then there's Riera too.

            Not Spanish, I always think Pires coming to Arsenal at age 28 is a perfect example of how age is only numbers when it comes to moving to another League 😉

            1. sleecc
              • 10 Years
              10 years, 4 months ago

              Those Spanish players from La Liga with no prior experience in PL, if they first arrived to PL at older age, they tend to struggle in PL. 26 seems to be a border line, Pires is not Spanish. All your Spanish players you mentioned arrived at PL at their younger age.

              1. sleecc
                • 10 Years
                10 years, 4 months ago

                Pedro is Spanish and is already 28, I am not sure whether he is still flexible enough to adapt to PL.

                1. NABIL - FPL otai
                  • 13 Years
                  10 years, 4 months ago

                  You make it sound like Spain is like millions of miles away from England! 😛

                  Fair point dude, I just think Pedro will adapt (although not that quickly) and prove to be a hit.

    6. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Pedro is a major step down in quality from Sanchez, and won't have a team built around him as Sanchez had , and has more competition for a starting place. I'd be surprised if he justifies 9.5.

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        More competition for a starting place? Come on. He left Barca for regular playing time, Cuadrado is leaving, and surely he's leading the pack with Oscar and Willian.

        No point arguing though, you're SUAREZ_MESSI_NEYMAR 😉

      you on wildcard? id hate trying to decide who to bench. i say pick 343 or 352 and downgrade someone to upgrade another. could find a way to get sanchez in

      1. Fanta sea
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        yea I am. Going to go 3-5-2 this week and drop benteke against arsenal. I really want silva so I don't have the funds for Sanchez unfortunately.

      343

    2. Swan - Villa Proud

      3-4-3 for now, but will switch in a few weeks if needed.

    @Walsh

    Surely Pelle is a decent pick if on WC for next few games?

    1. Helia
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      i think he is... just alot of value elsewhere which would be why his been overlooked by many

    2. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I don't think so if on a WC. Only the next 2 or 3 fixtures looks promising. After that, I'm selling

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      not Walsh, but he is. The only problen is there are three other forwards much cheaper with similar points potential.

            Bit of early season pressure on many of the Pros round here ... we might have all talked each other into some bad punts i dare say!

      Looks great

  18. Twelve years a slave
    • 15 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    With all these price falls how has Hazard managed to keep his price

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      non-wildcard contributions to price changes only and most early FTs are shipping Rooney/Walcott

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      High ownership makes it harder to fall. Plus, i suspect folks transferring him out are doing so on a WC

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Indeed! I want to get him back at 11.4.

    3. Test Eagles
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      It's a darn good question!! Possibly only people on WC selling him?

    4. the cromulent one
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Large ownership can act as a buttress against price falls. Consider that piles of already-dead teams will have him, it will not be easy for him to lose 10% ownership, or whatever the threshold is. That is in contrast to players like Walcott, who are mostly owned by us 'pros', who will sell on a whim.

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

      Chelsea players have their own rules. Costa rose at least twice last year when no one predicted it.

  19. Zoostation
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Does everyone think Silva vs Yaya is that crucial of a decision that it will make or break seasons? Or in the end they will almost be level on points?

    Which I guess would mean Yaya will be the better value.

    I'm sure you are sick of this but I'm still feeling undecided

    1. Helia
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      if silva doesnt get injured like every other season silva should get more points. consistent everyseason.. value wise dont know whos the better pick

    2. Joggers Nipple
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I have ended up on Yaya. Main reason? I want to keep hazard.

      Hazard and Aguero locked in.

      Then
      Ozil and Silva
      vs
      Sanchez and Yaya

      Just want Sanchez. With no Hazard? Silva all the way

      1. Tabasco
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Interested to know how the rest of your team shapes up with those 3 big hitters?

        1. Joggers Nipple
          • 16 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Ruddy/ Rudd
          Darmian/ Williams/ Targett/ Richards/ Gomez
          Hazard/ Yaya/ Sanchez/ Maherez/ Westwood
          Aguero/ Gomis/ Sakho

    3. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I don't think this decision like that can make/break your season in GW3, plenty of time left. Really depends on what you do with the extra 1.5. I've gone SIlva myself.

    4. Foot Fighter
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I asked a similar question an hour or so back and all replies were that Silva is worth the extra money. Cheers.

    5. osceola31909
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Some people are getting Aguero, Silve, and Yaya.

    How does this 3-5-2 WC team look?

    Butland McCarthy
    Kolarov Darmian Williams Ward Richards
    Hazard Silva Ozil Ayew Mahrez
    Aguero Diouf Watmore

    1. Swan - Villa Proud
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Planning on 4-5-1 😉

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      GK okay, defense is great.

      Too light upfront. Downgrade one of Haz/Silva or even Ozil.

      1. Jigger & Pony
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Who would you get upfront?

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          1 mid-rpiced striker (8-9.5) - Kane, Benteke, Lukaku, Pelle, etc.

    3. the cromulent one
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      As 352s go I do like it.
      But I still believe that 343 is the way to go. As soon as a cheap, reliable third striker emerges, everyone will be back on the 343.

      1. Jigger & Pony
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

    Courtois Hamer

    Lukaku Giroud Rooney

    any advice appreciated

  23. Get up ya bum
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Need help scouterinos. Who should I keep in my draft team, Montero or Alvrighton? My thinking is Montero is a better player but maybe albrighton will get more goals/assists over the season which is all that matters really

    1. Root
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Albrighton

    2. Evs
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Both for now?

      Montero is on fire though...

      1. Get up ya bum
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        One has to go. Tough one ay. Think season long returns

    3. Saint & Reevesy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Montero looks the better bet, I've been really impressed with Swansea so far.

      1. Get up ya bum
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Same. He's brilliant ay. You don't think albrighton might have better end product?

    4. the cromulent one
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Keep Montero. Leicester won't keep the same pace. Just a few weeks ago, many had them pegged for relegation. Now they're world-beaters!

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      who are you picking up?

    What hapless Newcastle defender is Memphis going up against with Janmaat suspended?

    1. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Either Mbemba will be pushed out to RB, or Anita will play there.

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

        Mbemba will pwn Memphis.

        Anita will get killed by Memphis.

        Quite a contrast.

  26. Gravless wonder
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Which combination from:

    a) Clyne + Cresswell (total 11M)
    b) Lovren + Jenkinson/Reid (total 10M)
    c) Gomez + Jenkinson/Reid (total 9.5M)

    I like the attacking potential of (a) but not sure if it's worth the extra money. Would a different combo be better, such as Lovren+Cresswell.

  27. Evs
    • Has Moderation Rights

    Best 4.5m keeper (not butland) is...

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Myhill

    1. Geordienufc1
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Most will say Myhill. They'd probably be right.

    2. Jigger & Pony
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Schmeichel long-term, Myhill until Foster is back

    3. Crystal
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years

      Krul if you're in it for the long term

    A-Oxford – Payet – Vardy
    B-Oxford-Redmond-Pelle
    C-Ward-Pelle-Hoollalan
    D- Oxford- Chadli – Diouf

    and the answer is....

    1. Saint & Reevesy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      B

  29. Saint & Reevesy

    Any Chelsea fans - what would be the starting Chelsea midfield now Pedro has joined?

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      In for Willian or Oscar

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

      I'd assume Willian, since, you know, he is basically a fullback.

    2. st4rt__
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      In for Oscar

  30. Mr.Bojangoals
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on Kone as a cheap forward option? Cheaper than the popular choice Deeney, playing in a side that will score a lot more than Watford. Even with Everton's fixture list, perhaps a cheeky choice and good value for 5.1 with a goal and 2 assists to his name already.

    1. Saint & Reevesy
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      We made them look good. Sadly I think it might be a trend....
