    I've been working so hard tonight. Only way I can forget my gameweek.

    What are the chances of Eriksen saving me and scoring at least a couple tomorrow?

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

      I think a coupe is probably unlikely 1 and assist maybe tops imo

      1. oghash
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        I'd take anything. basically it seems my week comes down to him vs a spurs defender plus points. So I need something magical. 1 + 1 plus 3 baps and a villa goal would do

    2. mojoindojo
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I don't have him but dreamt this morning that he scored a Hattie....

      1. oghash
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Have you been nkown to predict future events. Earthquakes? Lottery numbers? Nic Cage's facial expressions?

        1. mojoindojo
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          unfortunately no

        1. The Red Devil
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Lol, any chance of winning any pounds? I could do with some, so that I can reinvest

          1. oghash
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            That's another thing. Dropped 60 pounds, which ok isn't a lot but still, on fantasybet to watch my teams fail. I have tadic on one bench, siggy on another. Kun captained. Everything is just a horror show.

            1. The Red Devil
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              Triple round free roll & championshiporge

              Are these progressive payouts?

              I'm 22nd & 27th respectively

              1. oghash
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 10 months ago

                No, the first one is for a 22 pounds entry ticket. The second one is winner takes all 20 pounds.

                1. The Red Devil
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 10 months ago

                  Damn, let's see, in the championship, did McCormack & gray score?

                  1. oghash
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 10 months ago

                    First one did, not sure about the second

                    1. The Red Devil
                      • 10 Years
                      9 years, 10 months ago

                      Yay! I'd captained, I think I'll spend some time researching the championship, frequency of games is high, so I fancy my chances there, if I get some info about the clubs and players

  3. Captain Vantastic™
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Who would you sell for Sigurdsson?

    Arnautovic or Payet?

    Thinking Payet as I won't be playing him this week anyway and Arnie has a good fixture in gw32 so I can roatate.

    Ta

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Arnie

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

    and bench one:

    A) Ozil (Eve)
    B) Mahrez (Cry)
    C) Payet (Che)
    D) Alli (Bou)
    E) Siggy (AVL)

    1. oghash

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

        thanks. Gash - is that What Would Payet Do?

        1. oghash
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Almost, Paulie

      2. Mark-O
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Play all five. Bench one forward

  5. Musicholic
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Tony Simpson and Sagna. Undoubtedly

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Do you have two FFS accounts?

  6. Musicholic
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Ozil Benched. Everton look at the back now. And especially if Arsenal goes out of the FA cup today and the CL then definitely benching Ozil

  7. The Red Devil
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Finally an overall ranking in 5 digits! B-)

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Well done dude, happy for you.

      1. The Red Devil
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Thanks, but hopefully I'll stay there by Monday night/Tuesday morning

        Captain failed yesterday, Arnie & siggy to the rescue

        1. oghash
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          I had a captain fail. No arnie, no siggy but x 2 stoke defence, x 1 sou defence.

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

            I feel for you. This week is a litle better for me but I have had a lot of those kind of weeks recently

          2. The Red Devil
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Ouch, small green?

            1. oghash
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              Yeah I got a green (up 2k), but that doesn't help me in my money leagues or H2H. I'm battling to win against someone with 7 players in one of my H2H.

              1. oghash
                • 10 Years
                9 years, 10 months ago

                And ironically as I have other accounts that I don't use (that are linked to my ufpl teams) and I don't even transfer or anything and haven't looked at in weeks. Checked them today, one of them has 35 points! 35 points with no full 11 or anything.

                1. The Red Devil
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 10 months ago

                  Hahah, it's the season of dead teams, but I'm certain in this month, ffs users will have a rapid rise in ranks

                  1. oghash
                    • 10 Years
                    9 years, 10 months ago

                    I hope you're right, except fro my main ML leader, he's a FFS person

                    1. The Red Devil
                      • 10 Years
                      9 years, 10 months ago

                      Hahah, I always have a good March and April FPL wise, hoping for the best!

        I was hoping to get to 50 songs before releasing it to the public. It has been slow going because generally I have been really busy recently. It is on 38 at the moment

        1. oghash
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

            1. oghash
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              I did indeed, I thought ti was better than the one you first gave us that people gave you songs too

              1. Cheeseoid
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 13 Years

                  9 years, 10 months ago

                  I'll give it another go. Half way through an 8 nights in a row run at work. It'll get played before I finish.

                  1. Cheeseoid

                    • 13 Years
                    9 years, 10 months ago

                    186 tracks now! Should keep you occupied.

                    I cannot vouch for the quality of some

  10. Musicholic
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    I was just doing the analysis for DGWs and looks like everyone would be bringing in Arsenal players and for surely Lukaku. United players for 1st DGW.

    1. ManofKent
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      United wise there's so little appeal beyond DDG, Lingard?

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

        Martial at a push maybe Smalling?

      2. Musicholic
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Not sure if I would take DDG especially when Arsenal has a better defense and they would do what they normally do, beat everyone and secure that #4 spot.

  11. ARKANOIIDE
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Come on Harry(C) !

  12. Musicholic
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    United looks awesome for DGW34 but for not DGW 37 they have Norwich and West Ham. I am sure they would lose to West Ham. And what if Norwich went on a survival spree and won the last 5-6 games. These relegation teams cannot be predicted. Lingard looks awesome for DGW34 though

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

      Or Norwich could be down by then

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

        And West Ham may have nothing to play for

        1. Musicholic
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Europa spot? Why would you not consider that?

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

            Could be decided by 37

      2. Musicholic
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Judging by how they played yesterday. I don't think that will happen by GW 34

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

          I was taking that as the GW 37 fixtures. I didn't check, just how I read your post

          1. Musicholic
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Sorry my bad. It is GW 37. You are right. Maybe they dont have anything to play for by then.

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

              Probably will though. Just maybe

  13. Musicholic
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Well I dont think the Europa spot will be decided by then as its a fight between United and West Ham mostly. This will go down the wire. Thats what I think

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

      I agree. But it could be that is all I am saying

  14. mojoindojo
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Bench one: Williams, Toby, Bellerin, Fuchs

    1. oghash
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I'd say fuchs, but I can't remember who arsenal have, is it west ham? if yes then Bellerin.

      1. mojoindojo
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Everton

        1. oghash
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Bellerin still

          1. mojoindojo
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 10 months ago

            Thanks. Leaning towards Bellerin but afraid he might go on another assist rampage...

    Good night guys, need an hour solid of work before I go home. Take it easy all.

      Night

  20. Cubillas
    • 14 Years

    Is one allowed to use their WC and one of their chips (either Triple Captain or Bench Boost) during the same GW?

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

      Nope, only one per week I'm afraid.

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

    So with 4-5 FT left before the DGW, who's on your shopping list?

    For me it's this lot. Missing anyone obvious?

    Payet
    Firmino
    Lukaku
    Ozil
    MUN defender

    Elliot, Hennessey
    Kompany, Bellerin, JEvans, Wolly, Simpson
    Sanchez, Eriksen, Mahrez, Arnie, Alli
    Aguero, Kane, Vardy

    Bank 1.3m

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

      I was toying with Antonio ahead of Payet. It would leave me a little more flexibility

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

        Not a bad idea that.

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

      Its hard to ignore some of those Chelsea fixtures, though.

      I did want Costa, until yesterday.

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

        He may be back for them. You could go for Traore?

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

        I dunno - tough double (MCY/liv) and there's WHU and swa in there also.

        None of their players look worth the price at the moment either.

        You planning on WCing before/after the blanks?

        1. Trigg ⭐️
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          WC in 36 looks good to me.

          Might get Costa for Kane in time for avl.

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

            Isn't he banned for that? Says he's suspended until 9 Apr on the fpl site

            1. Trigg ⭐️
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              No idea to be honest. Possibly no Chelsea worth getting.

    3. andyd
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Many many variables but from the above teams I'd go with those players yep. Others to consider are ars def, sanchez (terrifying not to have for DGW), barkley, Coleman, Antonio.

  22. DGWjegy

    having really bad gw so far 🙁

    only have 5players left , is that guaranted red arrow?or i could hope for slight green?

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

      Well it depends how many they score but of course it could be green

  23. DGWjegy
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    any advice what i could do with my team?

    Fabianski , McCharty

    Kompany,Williams,Fuchs,VVD

    Payet,Ozil,Firmino,Mahrez,Alli

    Aguero,Kane,Vardy

    1.4 ITB

    maybe saving FT is the best option ?

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

      May well be. Do you have your wildcard left and thoughts on when you want to use it? It affects what you do now

      1. DGWjegy
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        i would like to use it in gw 36 as i feel that i have good enought team for dgw 34

        and with few ft's i coud buy few good players in

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

          I agree then. Gradually start bringing some probable GW 34 DGW players in you have a good core. Maybe try to free some cash as you might want to get a forward? (Costa?)

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

            Obviously Costa's ban has a major influence on that

  24. money face bandwagon
    • 12 Years

    westham top 4 anybody?

    1. A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Hope so but I doubt it.

  25. ChristoBisto
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Appreciate any views on how I can get DGW ready as I've already spuffed my wildcard:

    Forster
    Fonts - Toby - Daniels - Kompany - Simpson
    Alli - Payet - Antonio - Siggy - Mahrez
    Vardy - Aguero - Kun

    Thinking of saving this week and have £5.8m ITB but what moves should I make after that?

    Many thanks

    1. Live Lad
      • 11 Years

      Get one or two Liverpool players for GW 32 plus Lukaku the week after.

      1. ChristoBisto
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 10 months ago

        Thank you

  26. Live Lad

    Will Newcastle have double fixtures in DGW 34?

  27. Live Lad
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Is it early to think about Vardy to Lukaku this week? Tho Everton have tough fixtures immediately.

  28. andyd
    • 16 Years

    Up to 57k after hovering around the 200k mark almost all season. Delighted

    That Yaya injury was a stroke of genius, surely led many to pick Silva instead and he's been an awful pick for some time. Now deadwood to remove and take up a transfer, luckily many in my league fell into the trap.

    Great week so far, lots of pts hits being taken, one casual in my league who's hitting nosebleed territory took a 12pt hit and brought in Ayew, bet he's throwing up into his cornflakes this morning.

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

      Yep, my ML leader took a hit to bring Yaya in earlier in the week and then wildcarded late on Friday. Amateur.

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

        Awesome! It's going to be fun watching casuals seasons unfold and burn over the remaining weeks for sure.

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

        Would the WC not remove his hit?

        1. Fitzy.
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Yep, it would have.

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

          But it also removes the wildcard...

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I was about to do Ozil to Yaya, glad didn't go with that... 😀

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

        Phew. Well done

      2. Burger
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Wow bullet dodged, bud 😀

    3. andyd
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      I wouldn't say silva has necessarily been a bad pick; city's fixtures, decent form, plum fixture this wk, DGW, game in GW35, all combined with us having a spare spot in MF for a luxury buy made him a viable option.

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

        Decent form? 2 assists in 7 games is not any kind of form I'd get excited over. But that's the beauty of Silva this week, the writing was on the wall.

        1. andyd
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          I meant city's form. But you're mistaken I'm afraid. 7 games prior to Norwich (which is obviously what we're taking about when considering him as an option for getting him in this GW)- 1 goal/3 assists averaging 5pts per game. Not too shabby in my eyes. Being up against Norwich's woeful defence too, off the back of looking back to somewhere near his best vs villa. What's not to like when there's limited options elsewhere?

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

            So many flaws in your argument, firstly my granny would score a hattie against Villa but that doesn't make her an in form player. The 7 games were including this one, hence the 2 assists in 7. City have decent form? Their away form is appalling, utter muck. If you check some of the tables people were throwing around prior to this weekend you would have seen Silva doesn't feature on any of them, 1 shot on goal in the last 10 games for example. Hardly the mark of someone lighting up the prem. But then he's one of the best players in the league so why not own him, all else aside...

            1. andyd
              • 16 Years
              9 years, 10 months ago

              U said he was a terrible option for this week, so don't try cherry pick your stats please. Clearly we didn't know he would blank this wk, hence why we don't include it. Let's not speak in hindsight. Villa are the worst team in the league, yes, but Norwich aren't far off. Did u expect them to hold City to less than 2 goals? If so, well done. Not many saw that coming.
              With silva, much like KDB and ozil, we look at him for mainly his assist potential. I can't argue that his stats had been poor but you've dismissed all the pertinent facts I gave u. Stats are stats; they dont give the full story.
              Being a top player just means he's more liable to produce when stats aren't so good than a non top player, which is why i mentioned that. What rank are u sitting at?

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

                Bring a top players has delivered only 2 assists in 7 games, no matter how much flair, creativity, threat, whatever you want to call it was displayed. You don't need me to tell you this (or maybe you do?) but real life football, and fantasy football can often be quote different. So yes he was a terrible option. Don't worry I did consider picking him for a nanosecond but no I didn't see City routing Norwich like loads did, so much so that I doubled up on City defence and captained Kane this week. So far so good. And now I don't have to worry about removing one of the 'best players in the league' from a side in 'decent form' to get a player that's actually going to score points for me.

                My rank has suffered a lot recently, currently sat at 50k but with all chips to play I'm still hopefully of a top 5k. How you getting on?

        2. andyd
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 10 months ago

          Ps. He's one of the best players in the league. But if u would like to argue all of those facts then I wish u all the best

    4. A.T

      My ml rival fielded 10 and saved a transfer 🙂

    5. ChristoBisto

      Like how this is written, quite poetic.

  30. WE GO FOR IT
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 10 months ago

    Vardy might prove to be good captaincy differential?

    37k with 6 players and C to go. How high do you think I'll go or will I go down?

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Tough to tell at this point.

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

      Vardy hasn't scored or assisted for 3 games so I'm not overly hopeful. The other thing is he's only got 3 double digit hauls all season, probably a reason so few captained him. I have Kane captain and my rival doesn't even own Kane so I'm hoping he gets punished today.

    3. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 10 months ago

      Well very few serious managers will have Aston Villa players and only a few with Newcastle. That means you could only have a realistic maximum of 6 players left with (c). You're almost certain to rise again, but don't expect too much - many casuals will have loaded up already on Spurs and City.

      My prediction? 34K
