  3. MagicMessi
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    In ur opinion which is the best to get for CRY :

    1-Cabaye
    2-Sako
    3-Bolasie
    ?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 13 Years

      2

    2. Ijan All Star
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      get the striker.. sako

    3. The Left Duke #3
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      3

    4. johnbarnes

    5. BananaNose Maldonado
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Bolasie or Puncheon are the most promising to me. Sako will be on the bench once Wickham is back because Pardew will favor Zaha over Sako. Cabaye is still playing too deep for me.

      Bolasie has the most threat but Puuncheon will be the most consistent.

      1. MagicMessi
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Agree i prefer Bolasie but he;s not nailed on same as Sako ,, Cabaye is the safest option with the deepest position

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Which is why Puncheon should be considered. I guess people think it's not a sexy pick, but if you look at the stats, it's probably the smartest. He's playing more advanced than Cabaye, us more involved in the final third, takes more corners, and is splitting set pieces.

          1. MagicMessi
            • 13 Years
            10 years, 4 months ago

            Good point tho

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

      Puncheon

    8. Kered
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      I brought in Sako. I've watched most of their games this season and he looks promising. Puncheon a good pick also but flagged.

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I think Puncheon's is just a slight knock. With Sako I'd be worried that he's on the bench soon. Pardew choosing to play Zaha 90 minutes and taking Sako out early last match makes me think he's a late sub once Wickham is back.

    I propose we should have the option of blowing peoples gravs up to a reasonable size on this site. There are many times I have wondered who/what something is but it doesn't expand it enough in profile to see it properly still.

    A slightly different crowd so hopefully you wouldn't mind a re-post.

    What would you do? 2 FTs, 0 itb.

    Rudy Rudd
    Kos Kolarov Jenk Huth Gomez
    Haz Silva Payet Mahrez Westwood
    Kun Pelle Wilson

    A. Jenk -> Nyom/Francis
    B. Jenk -> Nyom/Francis & Pelle -> Benteke
    C. Anything else?

    If A, please specify which one. Bear in mind that I'll be playing Gomez in the next 2 GWs, and for GW8 & 9 'm still undecided.

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

      B for me, the Pelle to Benteke move is v nice. Prob with Nyom

        thanks man

    3. Zasa
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      B, Pelle out would be my priority here imo. Säints offense isn't cutting it, simple as tbh.
      Would prefer Haz out to Jenk also, feel like Jenk is alright on the bench for now and hope for the best. He can easily wait until next weék IMO, I think an offensive rearranging is the best route tbh.

      Haz + Pelle to Ayew/Barkley/? + Benteke

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

        Yeah actually considering that too. One school of thought is that it's better keeping Haz if I've held onto him this long, but then the likes of Ayew/Barkely/Cout seems like good replacement for the man who's definitely off form and overpriced atm.

        However Haz already fell and I don't think he'll fall again. Jenk otoh...

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

          I think you should take the 0.1m out of the equation IMO, you're depending on Hazard as an offensive asset & whoever you replace him with has a way higher ceiling tbh. Especially considering the fact that they face Arsenal & are still zombiefeid as a whole. There are better, cheaper offerings elsewhere that are more than capable of delivering double digit hauls this GW.

          I don't think your Jenk replacement will be more productive than your attacker, imo. (unless it a Kolarov)

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

            Nice thoughts. and the new guy will just sit on my bench for the next 2 GWs. Maybe Haz is the one I should ditch first. Thanks Zasa.

      Don;t jinx it! 🙂

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

        Benteke or Kolorov for me as (C) if Aguero out/ still has a yellow flag

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years

      Probably going with Wilsooooooon or Coutinhooooooo

    In my desperation I hit that -12 button. It has been a bad season so far. That being said I have such a heavy hit stacked against me this coming week I’m actually thinking of using a chip to some how lessen the sting. If you were in my position which one would you use and why?

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

      I would never do a -12

      1. thorvaldsson
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I said that too until. Depay Pedro Sanchez and Aguero gave me Saturday night’s lottery numbers of (1 2 3 2)

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

          Depay had to go, Pedro maybe, Sanchez no and Aguero not until you have more information

    2. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Sit back and relax, no need to use chip unless you have 8 good attacking players and poor defense OR a good squad.

      WC so you get all those points back..

      • 11 Years

      Looking at your GW5 team, I'm wondering where you spent 12 points?!

      1. thorvaldsson
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Mahrez Coutinho Mata Hazard.

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

          Is you linked to the correct team? It says you already have Mahrez.

          • 10 Years

          I'm confused. You got rid of Pedro and brought in hazard?

          • 16 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          I've done an 8. Not this season mind you. Or last.

          not a 12. if I need a 12 that's when I WC.

        2. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          OK. well I would say take a step back and use some perspective. Is this a good week with your squad to use that token. You only get each one once and you can guaranteem many people will be waiting for DGW's. If you use it now will you have an advantage because your team is particularly well? Or will you be wasting it and liable to fall further behind when everyone else uses theirs?

    Which 1 to start this week?

    A) Shaw (sot)
    B) Targett (MUN)
    C) Huth (sto)

    Will be starting Mane (MUN) also

    1. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…

    2. Joggers Nipple

      10 years, 4 months ago

      Shaw, hes getting forward a fair bit. Saw one of those heat maps and looks good for him

    3. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Agree with A

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

      A

    5. BenDavies
      • 13 Years

      A 100%

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

      A, I guess. But C could be a pick with a twist and B could deliver too.

    7. Kered
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      A for sure.

    8. Zasa

      C out of the equation imo, so I'll go for A.

    9. Desertbug

      Do you really need another vote for A?

    10. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Thanks all. Probably doesn't surprise you to know I'm currently on A, but always try to avoid playing opposing attacks/defence where possible and Targett is at home also. Do we know when Berty is due back?

      Darmian

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

      I'd bench Gomez.
      (but I just had a crap week, so what do I know?)

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 16 Years

        Gomez for me.

    3. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…

      Play the home player Gomez

    4. Zasa

      10 years, 4 months ago

      A for me

  13. Nerazzuro
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Butland - Schmeicel
    Azpi - Evans - Kolarov - Muniesa - Cedric
    Silva - Mahrez - Ozil - Payet - Anya
    Kun - Benteke - Gomis

    1FT 0.3ITB

    Assuming Kun is fit -
    A) Save
    B) Cedric out
    C) Ozil out
    D) Other

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

      other

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

      Either C, or I think I'd save and look at taking Ozil + Azpi out next week imo.

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

        Cheers for the reply. Im leaning towards savings since Ozil has been playing quite well as of late

      Where do I begin. I would really suggest you research it, but watch from 2005 onwards. The old series weren't as good. It's a great show that has declined recently. But worth a watch.

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Yeah, I did decide if I want to watch it - it would be from 2005 onward.

        Don't really like old school cinematography.

    3. Desertbug

      Not sure where to even begin with that one...
      Not my bag, but I might get shot for saying that.
      So many different iterations and flavors through the years, not sure one can make a blanket statement.

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        Mixed emotions?

        Perhaps I should watch the first season and decide for myself, right?

          I get the impression that you should start with one of the more recent iterations of the Dr, rather than starting at the very beginning, but I'm not sure I can tell you what year to start with, (or which Doctor). Best consult a professional on that one.

      Don't think anybody is really honest. We'll only really know if we see Kun on field tomorrow.

  16. El-Kloppico

    Hazard + Pellè --> Costa + Mahrez for -8pts?

      N

      1. HellasLEAF
        • 16 Years

        I'd get Mahrez but if you waited out Hazard this long he might come good.

    3. Zasa
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Nay for 8, imo

      Can you do one only? I'd prefer Hazard to Mährez first tbh, and I would try and picknsomeone other than Costa tbh.

  17. Slam
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Hey DZ,
    I hit the WC after an embarrassing 26 points week… I'm honestly ashamed.
    Here's a look at my thinking for now.

    McCarthy
    Dawson/Kolarov/Nyom
    Mahrez/Barkley/Sanchez(c)/Yaya/Payet
    Kun/Gomis

    Butland…Ighalo/Bellerin/Cedric

    Alright, I really want the likes of Benteke in my team, but don't see who to get rid of in my midfield/defence to make it happen. If Kun is injured a few games it would make my decision easier with just putting the money in the bank?

    Some quick questions,

    How do you find it? Can this team turn into a disaster in a few weeks time? Or does it have the potential to do well.

    Am I playing the right defenders? Captain choice OK for now?

    Thanks again DZ.

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

      I like it personally and don't rush into Benteke imo. Things aren't good in Liverpool right now.

    2. sleecc

      It looks good, I'd captain Mahrez.

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

        Definitely not set on my captain choice, will think it through throughout the week.
        You think it's alright to go without Benteke for now? Maybe revert back to a 3-4-3 some how?

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

          Can't have everyone, I'd do Barkley to 4.5m to get Tekkers if you really want him in your team. 3-4-3 is not really effective atm.

          1. Slam
            • 10 Years

            Alright,

    3. Cheeseoid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      With the best advice in the world it can turn into a disaster area I am afraid. Look at the starts most on here have made to the season.

      I am not keen on captaining Sanchez for the Chelsea game. There must be a better option?

      Playing Payet against Kolorov means one of them is guaranteed to blank.

      Team looks pretty good all in all but everything seems quite random at the moment.

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

        The Sanchez captain won't stick. It's only Tuesday 😛
        That's not necessarily true 😉 Kolarov could still score.
        Just curious, are you advising a downgrade in Payet? Do you think he will continue to perform?

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

          Yes I think Payet will continue. It is just a defender cannot get a clean sheet and a forward score goals against each other in the same match. I might just put one on the bench

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

            Understood, will think about, thanks for the advice!

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

      Team actually looks ok
      My first though was dont like the 3-5-2 and one of your mids should be a 4.5 and bump up Ighalo. But thinking about it i cant honestly say dropping one of Payet, Barkley or Maherez is good!

      I always go the 3-4-3 with a 4.5 mid but your team looks good. Not sure cash wise but looks like to me Payet and Ighalo vs 4.5 mid and Benteke?

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

        This. Not convinced with 3-5-2 but those midfield picks are awesome.

        You may hate this SM but I think lose one of Sanchez or Yaya and play the tried and trusted 3-4-3.

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

          If anyone (and I will hate this 😉 ) I would drop Yaya.

          Hmm…
          Yaya -> Sako
          Ighalo -> Benteke?

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 13 Years

        This is my conundrum for this week.
        I have gone from one to the other in my head.

        Just, I feel that Payet will continue to perform for some reason… gut feeling which evidently has been working for me up until now 😆

        None have fantastic underlying stats but Payet looked incredible today… really going to drive me nuts this week.
        Thanks for the response!

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

      I'm not sold on Barkley yet (see my blog post today for more on that). I also have Butland and McCarthy as my goalkeepers but I'm actually thinking about shifting Butland soon, despite his heroics against Arsenal, because Stoke aren't looking great for clean sheets right now.

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

        I have read your article (fantastic btw) and it made me stop and think.

        The tricky part is, if I keep 3-5-2, who do I downgrade to?
        and if I revert back to 3-4-3 it doesn't give me enough cash to bring Benteke in… to double up on Leicester offence? Vardy as a possibility?

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

          Thanks. I'm trying not to say don't get him, but at the same time I can't recommend him either. Finding someone else for the same price or less is where it gets tricky though and I don't have an answer right now. Have you looked at Palace midfielders?

  18. waputs101
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    if you have to pick long term, who would you pick between?

    A. Gomis or Ayew

    B. Lukaku or Barkley

    Thanks! comments highly appreciated!

    1. HellasLEAF
      • 16 Years

      Gomis

      Barkley

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

      gomis... only because there are plenty of othe mids in form but not too many strikers.. and im planning on getting lukaku for gw 11.. barkley seems like a good choice too though

      1. waputs101
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        yup, im planning ahead too. so you'll pick Lukaku? pick 1 striker, Gomis or Lukaku?

    3. Desertbug
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Gomis and Barkley

  19. HellasLEAF
    • 16 Years

    Image you had this midfield from the start, and her we are wasting millions on over priced underperforming bums like Sanchez, Hazard etc..

    Just need to find the nerve to dump Sanchez for Barkley and I've fully committed lol

    Barkley - Mahrez - Payet - Ayew - Yaya Toure

  20. Swan - Villa Proud
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    I've no clue what to do next week. Almost tempted to just save, if Kun is ruled ok

    Butland. Ruddy
    Kolorov, RIchards, Francis, Huth, Cedric
    Mane, Payet, Ayew, SIlva, Mahrez
    Kun, Pelle, WIlson

    1FT 1.9M ITB

    Pelle->Tekkers seems the only sensible move, but I'm not in love with it. Perhapse just get a better defender? Anythoughts appreciated.

        I suppose, but Pool attack is garbage lately.

      Pelle to Tekkers for sure

    I've just ready FuzzyWarble's post (see stickies). I can't say I really knew him, having only been posting on here since last summer and I don't recall seeing him around much in the Deadzone, but it is a bit sad if regular posters are drifting away.

    I like the Deadzone because we can actually have a proper discussion about various FPL options. When I have ventured on to the site at other times, particularly on a Friday and Saturday, it's bedlam and I think nearly everyone gets ignored. It just encourages me to return to the welcome embrace of the Deadzone. 🙂

      DZ FTW

      DZ is the best zone. Nuff said.

          I shouldn't laugh... but you made me laugh. 🙂

      Yeah. Like when we were having that conversation on saturday morning and the bages just kept going by and it was still relatively quiet at that point. I rarely post during the day. I mostly just lurk and read articles.

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

        Yeah, I did reply to you in that conversation by the way but I think I missed you by mere seconds. I like to think about my answers and that's impossible during the busy times. It might be one of the reasons I took up Balders' suggestion of starting the blog.

        1. Cheeseoid
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years

          I was cream crackered. Just popped on to check my captains and things were set up before bed. Your blog is really good btw

            Thanks Cheese and no worries about Saturday, I didn't take offense, I just cursed myself for not typing quicker. 🙂

    Kun > Benteke ??

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

      Not yet for me.

    2. Helia
      • 10 Years

      Even if i knew kun wasnt playing this gw id still keep him just for the fact that id want him in my team the following week anyway

    3. HellasLEAF
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      too soon. you'll regret if Kun is healthy.

    4. Kered

      Too early

  23. The Man Pastore

    Ruddy l Rudd
    Kolarov l Williams l Jenko l Francis l Huth
    Sanchez l Ayew l Mahrez l Silva l Fletcher
    Diouf l Aguero l Wilson

    0FT / 3.0ITB

    Is it worth taking a hit somewhere? Maybe to take out Jenko?

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

      Nothing worth a hit, IMO.

    2. Holmes

      Jenkinson to Dawson/Nyom/Prodl

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

        worth the hit in your opinion?

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

          Yeah, I think so, Huth and Francis probably wont keep CS. You should get those 4pts back in next few weeks.

    What are the chances of Yaya rising 0.1 this week?

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

      ZERO?

  26. BananaNose Maldonado
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    If Kun plays, who to sit this week:

    Sanchez (che)
    Silva (WHU)
    Ayew (EVE)
    Payet (MCI)
    Mahrez (stk)
    Kun (WHU)
    Gomez (EVE)
    Wilson (SUN)

    I was planning on sitting Payet but it's harder to do that now.

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

      Payet , imo

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

        I'd sit Payet too and I love Payet.

    2. Trigg ⭐️
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      Which Gomez?

      City 5 CS in 5, can't see Payet having another double figure score.

      1. BananaNose Maldonado
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 4 months ago

        I meant Gomis. It's late.

    3. Holmes
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 4 months ago

      By law of elimination, Sanchez/Gomez. Probably Gomez as Chelsea's defense has been shaky...

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

        Is that Gomis? Then Sanchez on bench

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 4 months ago

          Yep, Gomis.

  27. Scab
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    hey everyone I got 2 ft and not sure on what to do
    Probably just use one this week for ward to nyom

    But land / my hill
    Williams kolorov francis ward Richards
    Pedro Sanchez silva mahrez Westwood
    Aguero gomis Wilson

    Tempted to get Barkley or payet in if he continues in the hole

  28. HellasLEAF
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    anyone else really not liking Sanchez fixtures at all coming up??

    just not sure this the right time to invest in this player with this form, close chances n'all.

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

      If you have him hold, if you dont then dont get him. Thats my current thinking

  29. Deicide
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 4 months ago

    Who is a better option, Silva or Yaya?

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

      Honestly after some consideration I have decided that they will score relatively the same for a while. The City mids share in the points it seams.

      So for me it's Yaya because of the funds difference.

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

        Thank you.

        I think next week ill get Yaya for Ramsey. Arsenal haven't been performing that great so far. I own Hazard too, but I prever Hazard over Ramsey anytime.

    What happens if you play the AOA chip and one of your front 8 doesn't play?

    The rules say you lose the chip (which is fine), but it doesn't seem to confirm whether defenders can sub in for attackers (thus changing your formation). Assume the answer is yes but wondered if anyone knew for certain?

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

      I would assume it was yes as well.

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

      Automatic substitutions will take place.
