            CHE vs. FUL seems like the best matchup this weekend.

      I didn’t own Hazard all season until 5 weeks ago, got him in for his 10 points or whatever over the last 5.

      Sold him for Sterling this week, Giroud braces and likely to start at the weekend, which will hugely benefit Hazard.

      Anyone else never been able to get it right with the Belgian?

      1. That Was Easy!
        • 11 Years

        Not at all complaining, more just going out he’s my ultimate FPL weakness.

          • 11 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Haha I know, it just gets more interesting. At the end of the day I am happy with Sterling so long as he gets the start.

      3. Guba
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        That seems like more an issue with lack of patience transferring only. That said Morata just scored so you might be alright 😉

        1. Guba
          • 10 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          early* not only

        2. That Was Easy!
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Patience is a funny thing. Those who “weren’t” patient and dropped him 5 weeks ago are sitting pretty. It’s just been timing, think they are different.

            Season keeper, you look at all the seasons when the team performs and he has dry patches but overall he’s 200+ player

            1. That Was Easy!
              • 11 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              Season keeper argument applies to Salah and Sterling as well, and with Kun you really only get 2. It’s a really just preference between the 4.

            2. Mr Bird
              • 7 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              Never understand this logic. You don’t keep underperforming premium players no matter their points history... surely the whole point of the game is to have players while they’re scoring and not have them while they’re not

              1. MTPockets
                  7 years, 1 month ago

                  yep

                • That Was Easy!
                  • 11 Years
                  7 years, 1 month ago

                  Agreed, I suppose the counter argument is that you can either get it 50% right by taking on a "season keeper" approach, or a range between 0-100% right if you time it, as premiums can haul in unexpected games. That said, it is usually quite apparent when the time is right.

                  1. Mr Bird
                    • 7 Years
                    7 years, 1 month ago

                    For what it’s worth i think you made the right move... if i could do Haz to Sterling in one move i’d have done it already

                  7 years, 1 month ago

                  Aim of this game is to get points .U have to predict whether the underperforming player will perform for the next few games or not.If u think he will perform no point removing the player and chasing points from previous games .As simple as that

            3. Guba
              • 10 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              Huh? Patience as in waiting one more evening for the Chelsea game rather than transferring mid-week. That's only your fault mate - not that it's necessarily going to backfire anyhow.

              1. That Was Easy!
                • 11 Years
                7 years, 1 month ago

                I don’t feel as if I made a mistake in not waiting, however I can see how someone may think that.

                1. Guba
                  • 10 Years
                  7 years, 1 month ago

                  Unless the 0.1 price rise was imperative to getting Sterling, it's in my opinion always better to wait for more information and remaining games. People get burnt on those decisions all the time. That said good luck!

                  1. That Was Easy!
                    • 11 Years
                    7 years, 1 month ago

                    I've been patient this year in making every move on Friday's (I'm in the US), which isn't common for me. that .1 was needed unfortunately for me.

                    I dug my own grave if it doesn't come off. 🙂 good luck to you as well! Have a feeling it'll be a week where they all haul.

          i've survived not owning these last few weeks and was all set to bring him back in. unlikely to now tho with the doubts

          1. That Was Easy!
            • 11 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Yep, hard to argue against Salah/Sterling.

        4. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Y u didn't get him for gw4.It was so obvious with bou and Cardiff at home

        5. TRIPOS TOPPER
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Been lucky this season with Haz but last season I timed it wrong like you and got burned by Sterling big time. So I've sold him for Strling this week

          The one trolling me is Richarlison. I've managed to own him for 5GW overall with one return and one red!

        6. UpAndAway
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Historically, I have always missed out on his huge hauls. I bring him in and then he goes cold like right now. I'll get rid and the points will come again. He is the most frustrating player to own.

          In saying that, I did get his 14 points this season and basically nothing since.

        7. NoAltus

          He is my nemesis, every season.

        Wait now and do [ Mane + Wilson > Eriksen + Arnautovic ] after this GW for free?
        The reason is mostly good fixtures.

      6. Claudio555
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Start Richarlison (liv) or Mitro (che)?

        1. That Was Easy!
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Rich, maybe the derby will be a thriller and Everton score a few.

        2. TRIPOS TOPPER
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Mitro

          Chelsea defence looks a bit wobbly, he could cause problems

          Everton record in derbies is awful and they tend to be low scoring anyway, can see a 0-0 or 1-0 Liv

        3. Big_Bear
          • 11 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Rich

        4. Doolittle
          • 13 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Possibly Rich, but is there no way you can start both?

      7. Niho992

        should i buy kenedy or keep fraser and play richarlison this gw

        1. That Was Easy!
          • 11 Years

          Definitely the latter.

        2. TRIPOS TOPPER
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Keep Fraser

          Don't rate Kenedy at all - very meagre returns

        3. A.T
          • 15 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Not for Cadwallader and all his goats would I buy Kenedy.

            I don't think so

            • 13 Years

            Depends what you do with the money, but I'd personally lose Hazard before Salah.

          • Zladan
            • 8 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Probably he better move. Chelsea have cracking fixtures and Haz will come round again.

            Salah overpriced anyway.

              Really difficult - I'd hold until tomorrow and hope for more information on Hazard and then it's your call! If Hazard starts, I think he's the best option of the 3, otherwise obviously not. Of the city mids I suspect Sane is most likely to start this week but who knows over say the next 3-4.

              I think for the next few weeks Sane may just edge it because of Mendy's injury. No one else can provide the width on the left in the way that Sane does, and it's vital to Pep's style. With regards to the Hazard swap, I will almost certainly do it at some point, just deciding whether to pull the trigger this week.

              Mendy not coming back until february, that's enough for me to bring Sane

              prob sane, tough choice, frees up more funds to upgrade elsewhere

            Hmm decision to hold Hazard starting to lose its shine when it looks like Morata might start over Giroud vs FUL. Haz so much better with Giroud playing. Sad times
