We head to Selhurst Park for Saturday’s final fixture as Palace and West Ham’s dodgy defences go head-to-head.

Christian Benteke warmed up for this one with a midweek hat-trick against Gibraltar and will fancy his chances against a rearguard that conceded more goals than any other over the first seven.

Subject of a recent members article, the in-form Dimitri Payet has racked up a goal and four assists in four starts for the visitors and chipped in with a goal and assist for France over the break.

Michail Antonio has netted in each of his last two away outings – at Man City and West Brom – suggesting he could punish his recent batch of sellers against a Palace backline that’s yet to keep a clean sheet.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Love how everyone is selling Snodgrass despite the fact that the next 6 weeks are exactly why you bought him in the first place.

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Cos Hull are rubbish.
      But i might give him 1 more week.

      Don't be so silly, the reason you bring in a player is because they scored points the previous week. Why would you plan ahead?

    3. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      True, but he hasn't been what I'd term 'impressive', these last few weeks.

      Any reason you're feeling optimistic? Words of encouragement appreciated.

    After Spurs Stanilas has some nice fixtures.

    1. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Already got Wilson 🙁

      I think Wilson is still on pens, he just had a brief knock from the foul so Stan took it.

      Interesting that Stan is in front of Daniels though.

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah was thinking about that also
        Seriously tempted to bring him in after next GW.

  3. Differentiator
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    I thought I was having a bad week...

    Jonty on 13, with Valencia, Ibra and Lallana/Capoue left

    1. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Didn't he say last week was his lowest ever score.. he could beat that this week 😎

      1. The Gambler.
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Haha

  4. semiconductor
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Snodgrass owners..he has the best fixtures coming up with terrible team performance. What u doing?

    1. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping.

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

      Tempted to keep for now tbh. Got other things to sort out.

    3. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping, praying

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

      foolish to get rid of him now. sure there are other players you could get rid of for him

    5. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Keeping for now, might switch to Sigurdsson in a few weeks time when Swansea have better fixtures.

    6. semiconductor
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I guess we should keep couple more weeks before getting rid (on case he doesn't get points)

  5. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Antonio to Walcott/Mane now or wait until after CL?

    1. ZLATANisKING
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Wait

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      If u have the cash itb wait.
      If your tight fro cash then do it now as Wally will rise.

      1. semiconductor
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Rising tonight?

        1. Styles_X
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Yes yes yes

  6. PvA
    • 9 Years

    I feel like I say this every week, but what a crazy GW

    1. Forza Papac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Not the good kind of crazy unfortunately

      1. PvA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        No, not at all

  7. Flycroft
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Does anyone have a link to a rotation spreadsheet handy? 🙂

  8. Weasel Boy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Im thinking 2FTs

    Sterling > Wally
    Capoue > Allen

    Yay or nay?
    Thanks

    1. ZLATANisKING
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      What does the team look like?

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Foster Jaku
        Kosc Williams Lovren Holebas Anat
        Sterling Sanchez Firmino Snoddy Capoue
        Lukaku Kun Rashford

        2fts 0.1 itb

        1. rivercityransom
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          no need to sell capoue if he's your bench fodder, just do the first transfer.

          1. Weasel Boy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Thanks

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

          1- no need, u got sanchez.CL coming up.
          2-do it if capoue blanks. But dont bench joe if u get him.

          1. Weasel Boy
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            I wont be benching Joe 🙂

            1. ZLATANisKING
              • 10 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              I'm entertaining Antonio>joe myself btw but now the prospect of capoue>joe looks bright mate

    RMT

    This team got in the big points this week and really happy with it

    2 FTs 😎

    Cech
    Stones, Evans, Davies (Hull)
    Son, Sterling, Antonio, Payet
    Aguero, Benteke, Defoe

    Can't fault it at all 😎

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I highly recommend Son -> Xhaka as a 1 week punt

      1. PvA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Ufff, I forgot to mention Xhaka my 5th mid

        Class player, 2 pointer every week

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

    Sterling for Costa with Allen playin for him as 4th mid ?

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

    Okay going without Costa is getting ridiculously hard by each gw

    But cant decide who to sell and bring to accommodate Costa. Any ideas ? 2ft.and 0.0 itb

    Attack is

    Sanchez Theo Firmino Son Capoue
    Aguero Lukaku Benteke

    1. rivercityransom
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      i wouldn't bother, at least while he's still on 4 yellows. your team looks great.

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

    if you were buying one now, who would you get?

    a) son
    b) alli

    1. ZLATANisKING
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Alli

    2. JustPark
      • 9 Years

      Alli

  13. Pratik
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    So proud of my unsexy transfers this week

    Jako to Grant, and McAuley to Smith

    Of course, the rest of the team was poor, but for some reason I am still happy.

  14. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    This place is a ghost town... I wonder why

    "50,000 people used to live here, now it's a ghost town"

    1. Pratik
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      That reminded me of the song Devil Town. 🙂

    Is there a way you can leave fan club leagues on FPL

      If you edit your personal details, there's a 'Premier League Only' option under 'Your Favourite Club'

      1. PvA
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        I've done this and I'm still in it...

    Hi lads, which are better moves:

    A) Antonio > Sanchez (FT)
    B) Sterling & Antonio > Sanchez & Walcott (-4)
    C) Antonio & Snodgrass > Walcott & Mane (-4)

    Current midfield is: Firmino, Sterling, Antonio, Snodgrass, Capoue.

  17. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Aguero has missed 6 penalties in 2016

    Shocking

  18. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    I'm thinking of getting arnie, anyone else?

    1. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Nah

      Got him in this week.

    2. Chucky
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      He's on 4 Yc.Get Allen instead. 35 points in the last 3 GWs

    3. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      With Allen's current form?
      No

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

      Possibly. Really want Ali though

    5. PvA
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Get to the choppa. Now.

    6. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…

      Me

      1. LE GOD(C)-AMERICAN DYCHO-(1…
        • 11 Years

        Only thinking about it tho.

  19. StoneMountain
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    I'm sure this has been asked already but how how eff did Walcott only get 1 bap?? Stupid point system if you ask me.

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Missed lots of big chances, etc. All the things you get -bps for.

    2. The Gambler.
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Missed about 6 big chances

  20. PvA
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Evans suspended. Nice one you absolute turnip

  21. Hochoki
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Foster Pickford
    Koscielny Valencia Williams Holebas Amat
    Mane Sterling Antonio Capoue Barry
    Aguero Lukaku Costa

    Since i have 0.6 ITB & 1 FT left, I will not be able to do Antonio to Walcott after tomorrow. So will it be a bad decision if i do the transfer tonight ??

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Worth the risk imo

    2. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Do it

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

    which is the best transfer... ?

    a) cazorla > firmino

    b) townsend > coutinho

    I have benteke.

    Tnks

    1. BrockLanders

      Deffo B

  23. Everyday im Schneiderlin
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Capoue to joe allen a good move yay or nay?

    1. Weasel Boy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Was thinking the same

      1. Everyday im Schneiderlin
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Best seeing how catpoo does tomorrow

  24. FF Dirtbag
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Probs been said but what's the average number of players left to play?

  25. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Next GW:
    Play Snodgrass(STK) or Smith (TOT)?

    1. ryacoo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Snodgrass

    2. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Smith

    3. Reedy
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Snoddy surely

    4. fedolefan
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Thanks guys.

    5. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      if you don't play snodgrass home to stoke then what's the point etc etc

  26. BrockLanders
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling to Ali for free??

    1. JAC THE CAT
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Sounds a decent move to me

      1. BrockLanders
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Don't like doing early transfers though

  27. Dasher0303
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Do sterling to Walcott now????? Or wait till later in the week?? Got 1ft and can always take a hit after doing this transfer, such as upgrading Hojbjerg to Allen. This would allow me to bench Austin next week. Will probably wait till all the matches have finished though.

  28. UshFPL
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Antonio and Capoue->Walcott and Allen for a -4?

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Can you afford just Antonio to Walcott

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        this

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

      Not sure. Think you probably need Walcott though

  29. Pat Bonner
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Having a shocking season but pretty happy with my team. Just 0.3 in bank and 1ft, any changes you would do

    Jaku Pickford
    Mustafi stones lovren Evans Amat
    Sanchez mane firmino snoddy Capoue
    Aguero Austin lukaku

    1. BrockLanders
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd rid yourself of Stones

    2. John Nerdelbaum
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      roll one to spruce up the defence / jaku

  30. liiusions
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Walcott or Mane/Firm if I have Sanchez? Hard to fit them both in

    1. Pat Bonner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Hard to argue against Walcott with him form and fixtures

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

      Think you need one Liverpool. Insanely good fixtures.
