Today is all about friends and family. It’s about sharing those treasured moments whilst black and white films and laboured Christmas specials play out in the background.

We shouldn’t be discussing Jamie Vardy’s hamstring with relative strangers over the internet.

Even so, we couldn’t let the day pass without popping by and wishing you and your families a very merry Christmas.

As always, myself and the team must extend a huge thank you for your outstanding support for the site and for your contributions in helping us maintain what we believe is one of the best football communities on the net.

Now you should really log off and go back to the family before the Call the Midwife special starts. Having said that, be sure to check in with us throughout the day as we roll out the Team News, Scout Picks, Captain Sensible and another batch of regulars prior to tomorrow’s deadline.

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

    Have two free transfers and there's no problem in my team. should i get Hoolahan as the fifth midfielder ?

      No I'm selling him for Alli

      Stanislas and King are better options if you need cheaper than Alli

      Drinkwater > Alli/Bolasie

      Why would you want to do that?

      No - I feel you need 5 quality mids right now and it's hard to beyond Mahrez, Ozil, Barkers, Rambo and KGB.

    So Kane captain at this stage

    Not too convinced.

    Who are you captaining people?

    1. fijuhmon
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 6 hours ago

      Mahrez probably

    2. Mahesh_Kumar

      16 games, 147 points, 9 double digit hauls = Captain Mahrez

        ^^this till the cows come home

  6. fijuhmon

    Butland
    Kolarov, Bellerin, Dawson
    Mahrez, Barkley, Özil, KDB
    Lukaku, Kane, Vardy

    Ruddy, Moreno, Lingard, Naughton

    Thinking about doing Lingard -> Ramsey, but that will again give me a benching problem...so should I get rid of Naughton instead, maybe swap him to CPL defender.

      Good idea. I'd get Ward.

    Im not sure if its been brought up or not, but I read lots of talk about how this is a strange season in FPL land. Has anyone scrubbed the data on the number of teams that have used their chips? Seems to me almost every time I look at a team history they are 2-3 chips in already. That would be some inspiring data for those of who have not used chips yet and have a ranking that is sub par for this time of year.

    1. A.T

      Loads of people at the top have used their chips but I think too much is made of it. I've seen people with ranks of 500k think their chips will get them into the top 10k when in reality it'll probably get them 30 points max if you're lucky.

      1. Bobbydhino - ⚒ Saint Slav…

        If the chips are planned for dgw's I could see the tally being higher than that. A triple captain on a dgw player who only gets 60mins in both is now 12. I have never planned for a good bench and been able to leave 20+ points on my bench this season multiple times lol. I feel 30 is a little conservative and maybe a number like 50 is a realistic expectation.
        Now 50 points really comes down to perspective. If I am in the top 20k not as massive as if I am north of 800k lets say. 50 pts will take you from 4210 to 423 though 😉
        Just another leg on the FPL Game this season.

      Can I tell you who the bench instead?

      I just wanna type as less as possible.

    147 points in 16 games. Has any player done better than Mahrez so far in FPL? Maybe Suarez? Or Ronaldo?

    1. King H
      • 14 Years

      Bale
      Cr7
      Suarez
