    ayew was down over 80% earlier and now is down 65% or so on fplstats ....hmmmm how is that possible when he was ruled out for weeks, I'm worried fplstats isn't working too well and i should just take him out tonight before an unexpected drop! Any other price sites recommended?

      "5. While there is no limit on the number of entries per household or organisation only one entry in respect of the Game per unique registered user of the Site is permitted (concerning which the decision of the Premier League shall be final)."

      In other words they arent really bothered unless you are ridiculous.

    I have to disagree with the article here. These are not big numbers. Most of the numbers are small and even 22 isn't what I would call a.big number. 100 is a big number.

      It is the nature of the sport, no? Play fantasy hoops -- you'll get some bigger numbers there.

      1. A.T
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        I've seen some massive numbers in the past. I'm not sure Jonty has got the hang of it yet.

      It's even got a 0 in there ffs. Joke article. 🙁

  7. Davido989

    I wonder if Wenger is a fan of Dejan Lovren

    1. World XI
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      He has always been known to like Sahko

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        He can shove it where the sun don't shine then 😆

    2. Frank Black
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      That would be a brilliant transfer. For Liverpool i mean.

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        We would sell if bid was right. But I think Wenger knows better lol

        1. Frank Black
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          You're overestimating Wenger.

          1. Licky
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            £20m for an unknown French teenager?

          2. Davido989
            • 15 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            😆 he doesn't have many supporters at the mo!

    3. Licky
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I seen a rumour that Sakho will be sold. Supposedly down to disciplinary problems (tardiness got him sent home from the US). It would explain the signing of Klavan. :/

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Sakho's agent said he won't be sold. It's a bit of a pity he messed around in the summer though. Klavan has been excellent though.

        1. Licky
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          It's a weird one. Very disappointing all round if true.

      Wow

  9. Liastro ⭐️
    • 13 Years

    A fully focused Mahrez on pens is close to essential surely?

    1. Rusty Nail
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Top pick for sure

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I think I'll be getting him in GW3 if he scores this week.

    3. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Will use one of my two FTs on him after this week.

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Probably this. I don't even think he was particularly good vs Hull but it doesn't matter how you get points.

        1. tm245
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Agree with this.

    As a non member I make my decisions based on the players on the images of these articles.

    1. Davido989

      Stalking.

    2. Banana Shaqiri - HMD, PUP
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      In this case, I'd say don't

      1. StalkingDwarf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Townsend's already in

    3. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Well, don't. Foster owners loved his performance tho

    4. A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Townsend got 0 out of 10 🙁

      1. Frank Black
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Ten what?

        1. A.T
          • 15 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Saves

          1. Frank Black
            • 12 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            I don't understand his "threat score" on the FPL site, though, which is 46.0. That's higher than Martial for example and others too.

            1. A.T
              • 15 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              I'm not a stats man Frank but without divulging any info I'm guessing he was unlucky. Hope so as I've got him. Hoping he'll turn it on against his old club at the weekend.

            2. StalkingDwarf
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 4 months ago

              He had 6 shots and 3 on target according to whoscored. Also had 2 key passes. Seemed to be Palace's best player and cut in often against West Brom. I don't know what stats fall into "Threat", possibly big chances, shot on target etc.

  12. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    I've two dilemmas this GW...

    1) Keep Gray (& save my FT) or get Carroll or Rondon?

    2) Start Stones (stk) or Amat (HUL)?

    Thoughts would be appreciated 🙂

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

      I'd play Amat and keep Gray, can't base your opinion on one game.

    2. gdog22444
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Keep Gray, start Stones

      1. Dickie1898
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Start amat, Swansea are solid at home

  13. Jordan.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    some thought about getting a 3rd city player (stones,kun) ie nolito or sterling,and I seriously didn't know nolito is 9.0,staggered hes a million more than raheem,stirling it might be out of the two....

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'd stick with the two for now until City establish who their best midfield is once Sane and Gud are fit.

  14. tm245
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    @Mark, any plans to make the members area as dynamic a platform as the rest of the site? Would be great to be able to sort the stats by price or some other category like the Ticker on the home page is, for example.

  15. Sylas
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    1. Does it make sense to replace Lloris with Stekelenburg, amidst the rumor of Joe Hart being linked with Everton?

    2. Would one fancy doubling up on Liverpool mids? This thought is to replace Ayew with Coutinho (Already own Firmino).

    1. Sylas
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      *The thought.

    2. World XI
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      NO
      NO

      1. Sylas
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Thank you!

    3. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      No to both

      1. Sylas
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Thank you!

    4. A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      1) No. If it's not Hart it'll probably be someone else coming in.

      2) 1 is enough right now I'd say

      1. Sylas
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Thank you!

    5. Frank Black
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Replace him with Vorm, Spurs still have great fixtures.

      1. Sylas
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        That was the initial thought. The only reason I'm wavering from that is because when Lloris returns (in approximately 4 weeks), that is another transfer waiting to happen, and one would rarely use a FT for a GK.

        1. djpete
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Bring in a cheapie Foster, Valdes, etc and decide in a couple of weeks when the league settles down a bit?

          1. Sylas
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            Yup, I guess I'm gonna stick with Foster. Thank you!

  16. schlupptheweek
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Is playing:
    Redmond, Martial and A. Valencia
    and benching:
    Diomande, VVD, Morgan
    The sensible approach?

    1. Dazzler365
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Probably the most sensible with that lot

    2. clodhopper

      Yes

  18. andy85wsm
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    What's the most penalties ever scored in a season in the prem?

    Feel like they're having too much bearing over my thinking for United. Reckon we could see a few transfers in either for Rooney or even more for Ibra depending on who's taking.

    1. World XI
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Gerrard 2013/14 was really high i remember. 10 plus pens

    2. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I think Liverpool in 13/14 scored double digit pens.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Cheers both - maybe it's worth waiting then 🙂

        Now you mention it I do remember how annoying it was that rivals had Gerrard that year!

        1. tm245
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          Except when 5i captained him in the dgw and he missed one and gave Sturridge the other when DS was on a hat trick.

          1. tm245
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

        2. THE REAL RON ⚽
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          & compare the Liverpool team... Suarez, Sturridge, Sterling.. quick, tricky players.

          Apart from Martial, can't see United winning too many?

        3. Frank Black
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          I had Gerrard, Sturridge and Suarez.

    3. tm245
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Lampard?

    4. A.T
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      I'm expecting a reply on that anytime soon 😉

      I think he must be busy right now.

        😆

    5. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      maybe Rooney will increase, but Zlatan ownership % can't go much higher, pens or not...

      1. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        55.4% in theory

        1. Ibracadabra
          • 16 Years
          9 years, 4 months ago

          and in practice? 😉

          1. Ha.
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 4 months ago

            20.4%

    6. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Leicester received 13 penalties last year - an extremely high number that certainly contributed to their improbable run...

  19. Catastrophe
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    How's this?

    Foster
    Valencia, Stones, Williams
    Hazard, Payet, Coutinho, Lamela, Capoue
    Aguero, Ibra

    (Jaku, Amat, Diomande, Wilson)

    Cheers!

    1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years

      Beautiful

      1. Catastrophe
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Thanks. Still unsure about Payet versus Mahrez/Martial and Valencia versus Terry/Walker. Shamefully I am on WC (I am pathetic)

    2. Swanremainsthesame
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Wilson nailed?
      Love SUN has at least played 90+m, against MCI,

      Id actually fancy Diomande this gw rather than Capoue.

  20. BigAsGiroud_
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    Start Redmond(MUN) or Deulofeu(WBA)

    Have Shaw and Foster start

    1. Epic Fail
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Nobody else to bench?

      1. BigAsGiroud_
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        already bench McAuley and VVD

        those two with
        Sanchez Gaston Firmino
        Kun Vardy Gray
        are my front 8

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Both. Bench your bench warmers.

  21. FPL Maldini
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 4 months ago

    What big last minute shock transfers can we expect?

    Im thinking a striker to Arsenal or whatever

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Shane Long?

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 4 months ago

        Maybe they'll beat Barca to Rondon

    2. FPL Maldini
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Benteke to somewhere surely?

    3. Gooner97
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Mahrez 😉

    4. World XI
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      GK to City
      Lazaette to Arsenal
      Joe Hart to Everton (Loan)
      Ben Davis to Liverpool

    5. Ibracadabra
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      Jonny Evans to Arsenal to partner Koscielny at CB at the bargain FPL price of 4.5m would be my dream.

      1. clodhopper
        • 12 Years

        Joe hart too Bournemouth

    Has anyone experienced any problems with their custom ticker? My one keeps disappearing after a day or so.

      Redmond instead of friend

    Mahrez or Payet!?

    1. Gooner97
      • 12 Years

      Mahrez for now

    Will Ayew be price proteted now? Falling like a stone at -4.2%/h, and now projected to drop tonight (Fantasy Footbal Fix).

      Price protection occurs when they change from red to fit. Now it just takes more transfers out.

        OK, thanks for the clarification. I guess FFF might not take this into accoutn so he migh still not drop?

    Currently got Mahrez and Costa but thinking I will move to move Hazard and Musa at some point and also pocket £1.5m.

    Worth it?

      Musa looked better when Okazaki came on.

    Love this article, gladit's made a return (stillwaiting for a new keyboardwitha fixed spacebar so bear withme)

    Think if Gray doesn't performthisweek thenRondon is looking good with his fixtures.
    Would like Davies but Williams would have to make way and Davies fixtures not great.

    Evening chaps,

    Thinking Ayew to lamela or Barkley...

    I think Barkley price will rise most but lamela may be a better option but is he nailed long term...

    Which would you pick?

    1. BadgersBoys
      • 12 Years

      Lamela, for now.

    2. Oooof
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 4 months ago

      If Lamela keeps scoring, he'll be nailed.
