    Bee all set for Sterling>Alli and Vardy>Aguero all week.

    Now the time has come I'm tempted to do Vardy+Lukaku>Ighalo+Aguero and thus maintaining my Arsenal/City double up?

    Good move or a mistake?

    My front seven is thus;

    Sterling Ozil Mahrez Walcott
    Vardy Kane Lukaku

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Wait for Everton's presser

    2. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Do what you initially planned.

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        This.

        1. shirtless
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Thanks. I'm waiting until all the pressers just in case on Lukaku. I'm more scared of selling Theo than Sterling, with the Liverpool situation. Can always get Sterling back if needs be. Would like both but surely Aguero has more points potential than Sterling anyway, and Alli is in-form and at home for two games.

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I personally feel like Sterling is more likely to start than Walcott, and that City will score more than Arsenal will (I am biased I know). But it's not like it's a secret that Liverpool are missing defenders, Klopp knows this too. He will know that it would be unacceptable to be battered 0-4 at home by Arsenal and imo will set out so that if he does lose, it is not by more than 1/2. Surely he has tactical intelligence, he won the Budnesliga twice, over incredible Bayern sides.

      I would do Vardy+Walcott > Ighalo and Aguero if money allows you. They look like really good, intelligent long term moves that will undoubtably pay off this week (Mainly in Ighalo vs a terrible Soton, but also we are at home and Aguero looks at it, along with KDB also).

      Just my 2 cents.

        Walcott isn't a striker

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years

          Much to his annoyance I am sure, but yeah whoops...

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks for the feedback. But I can't do two strikers in for one striker and one mid though? As much as I would like to lol

        1. Requiem for a Raheem
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Wow, sorry about that, haven't had my coffee yet...

          Now I remember haha, I would do your original move but keep Sterling and get rid of Walcott:

          Walcott + Vardy > Alli + Aguero

          Right, where is that espresso maker...

          1. shirtless
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years

            Ha ha Monday morning lol

  2. The Tinkerman
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Wildcard team, yes or no? (6 changes with 0 FT)

    Foster, Butland
    Bellerin, Toby, Ward, Williams, Smith
    Ozil, Yaya, Payet, Alli, Mahrez
    Aguero, Costa, Kane

    (Foster, Ward, Williams, Yaya, Alli, Costa IN > Hennessey, Moreno, Cresswell, KDB, Surman, Lukaku OUT)

    1. FFFrog
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Definitely wouldn't wildcard - nothing wrong with your original team and 6 changes is not enough to need to.

    • 10 Years

    Vardy for

    Other front are Lukaku and Kane.

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years

      A

    2. Irish Madridista ⭐

    Kane Lukaku Vardy

    Can afford Lukaku and Vardy to Aguero and Ighalo for a hit
    Thoughts??

    1. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      wait for presser

  7. Prøphet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    If lukaku is missing this game it makes my decision way easier. Hope he doesnt tho. I just dont like how Kane looked at all honestly. Without Dembele he is playing #10 and Alli up front...

    Also, would you start Payet or Stanislas this GW only?

    1. Gooner Kebab
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Payet easily

      1. Prøphet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers mate

    2. Eden Hazardous
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      In the last 10 weeks ,, Kane has played without Dembele onl2 times

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        *only 2 times

        Payet

        1. Prøphet
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          yea fair enough, but still didnt like how he looked last 20 minutes he played last night and not even sure i like how he looked with Dembele in team, but its a massive difference with and without. Debating what to do.

    3. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Payet

      1. Prøphet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers mate! Have Stanislas atm

    4. SH@KTIMAAN
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Payet

      1. Prøphet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks ! Pretty unanimous!

    5. Rolls-Royce
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'd tempted to start Stanislas tbh, all his hauls has come at home and they do look impressive as a team recently. Also, might be lot of goals in that game so benching Payet might not be the best thing to do.

      1. Prøphet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        I have Stanislas at the moment starting, but i just might start Payet. I do think Stanislas will be involved in whatever they do

        1. Rolls-Royce
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          Yeah, his stats are also pretty decent, you'd know better thou..

  8. PlayPercentage
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    What are Rose owners doing?
    It looks like he is now behind Davies in the pecking order, and will play in cup and Europa league games.

    1. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I am waiting and seeing what happens on Wednesday and then getting rid.

    2. Nedvěd11
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Both Rose/Davies is a rotation risk. Even Walker also is getting rotated he more likely to be in the starting 11 then Trippier, Rose/Davies.

      1. Pochecinno
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Walker is safe imo. He was only rotated for the busy xmas schedule otherwise he is 1st choice in the league with Trippier playing cup games.

        Rose/Davies are genuinely being rotated through the league.

  9. _Gunner
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Current Forward 8:

    Arnautovic Mahrez Yaya Ozil Wijnaldum
    Kane Lukaku Giroud

    Which is better?

    A- Lukaku + Giroud > Ighalo + Aguero (-4)
    B- Lukaku + Wijnaldum > Aguero + Watson (-4)
    C- Giroud + Wijnaldum > Aguero + Watson (-4)
    D- Forget about Aguero this week and get him next week.

  10. Irish Madridista ⭐
    • 15 Years

    Am I the only one that thinks that West Brom miiiight not be total pushovers for Chelsea?

    Or is that an outdated point of view?

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      West Brom are an awful awful team ..thats all I will say

    2. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Chelsea are beginning to remember how to play football again.

    3. Kings of Lyon ★
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      They will win to nil imo

    4. The Wise Owl
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I don't know. Chelsea are looking dangerous again.

    5. LeBron - King of Argentina
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      West Brom will concede imo.

    6. Esraj
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Chelsea without Costa, Hazard and Oscar. 0-0 on the cards.

    1. Viprin
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      All depends on Sanchez

      1. Nexus
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        so thats a yes for this week?

  13. OptimusBlack

    Ramsey & Delofue > Payet & Arnoutovic ?

    Yaaay

    Will I survive Agueroless this week? Cup opponent has him

    1. Nexus
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      nah

    2. Doolittle
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I think I'm going without (though I could get him for Kane with a FT).

      1. Prøphet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Close to pulling the trigger on the same transfer honestly

    3. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      You might not survive the cup but it's not the end of the world not having him since he is still a differential

  15. Doolittle
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Play AOA?

    Butland/Hennessey
    Bellerin/Alde/Moreno/Dawson/Nyom
    KDB/Ozil/Mahrez/Alli/Arnie
    Kane/Lukaku/Ighalo

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Yes 🙂

      1. Eden Hazardous
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Unless Lukaku is injured

    2. Viprin
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Bench Mahrez if u have the guts

    3. mad_beer ✅
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Or you could bench Mahrez. This looks like the week to do that.

    4. Pochecinno
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I think the fixtures are lined up well for you to play it.

      1. Ten Season Wonder
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        agreed

    5. Rolls-Royce
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      I'd bench one of Kane/Lukaku depending upon fitness.

      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Yes

    6. Doolittle
      • 13 Years

    7. Requiem for a Raheem
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

      As long as Lukaku is fit, looks prime.

  16. FFFrog

    Best defender under 5.3 mill??

    1. Eden Hazardous
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Walker

      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Walker or Mertesacker

        • 12 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        or Williams

      1. Rolls-Royce
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 11 months ago

        Dire for nailed-on-ness and maybe larger goal threat?

        1. Ten Season Wonder
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 11 months ago

          *Dier

            • 11 Years
            9 years, 11 months ago

    2. Requiem for a Raheem
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      Williams or Walker

  17. Puyol Pants Up
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Was Ozil injured? Why did Wenger say "we should have Ozil back"

      • 12 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      fake injury to avoid FA Cup probably

    Thinking of doing Giroud > Ighalo this week... any thoughts?
    already have Kane and Aguero

    1. Samwise the Brave
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 11 months ago

      If you think giroud will play then hold as they usually score about the same

  22. PlayPercentage
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 11 months ago

    Man City vs Everton, and Spurs vs Leicester.
    When teams play each other several times over a couple of weeks it usually ends up in a stalemate, with the odd goal deciding it.
    Could even be a 0-0 in there.
