    Morning at all. What time are today’s pressers? They haven’t been listed yet on FFS...

    Just want more news on Hazard really ....

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Doubt we’ll get any more news on him

  2. zon

    I'm WC'ing next week, with 2 ft's can get a little punty. Team is:

    Fabianski
    Alonso Robbo Laporte Doherty Duffy
    Salah Hazard
    Kun Arnie Murray

    Patricio Camarasa Fraser Hojberg

    I'm thinking:

    A) Salah + Hojberg -> Sane + Willian
    B) Salah + Duffy -> Sterling + Azpilicueta?

    1. zon
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Or just get AWB for Duffy and leave Salah be. What do you guys think?

      1. Numbuster
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        this is fine

    2. King Kun Ta
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Pool and Salah have to proof something....no better fixture to so than the derby!

  3. King Kun Ta
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    What to do with this lot? I’m loosing ground in my ML but still defending a 5th place atm. How to get futureproof?

    Willing to take a hit!

    Fab
    Alonso Robbo Bennett Pereira
    Salah Rich Haz (C)
    Arnie Kun Wilson

    Bego Pereira Fraser Stephens

    1 FT & 0.4 ITB

    1. King Kun Ta
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Pereira in team is WB....

    2. zon
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Needs more City. Save this week, next week Salah -> Sterling.

  4. The Overthinker
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Final puzzle in my team, and the only thing I am not able to decide . Want to know what your opinion is regarding this

    Start one of
    A) Arnautovic
    B) murray

    1. zon
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      A

    2. jia you

      Def A)

  5. timPgoodwin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    TAA the best sub-6m defender or anyone else to consider? Kolasinac?

    1. zon
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      TAA I think. Wouldn't bother with Kolasinac just yet

      1. timPgoodwin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Cheers, anyone else to consider at that price?

    2. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah TAA has an awful lot going for him. He’s still relatively under the radar too, no massive hysteria over him just yet.

      The panic buying is one more double figure haul away - could come soon.

      1. timPgoodwin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks, I have Bennett, Alonso, WanB with good fixtures this week - worth waiting to bring him in GW15 after the difficult Everton fixture?

        1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 11 months ago

          It depends on rest of team and FT’s available. I’d be trying to get him in this weekend for sure, he can double return in any game, but need to buy & hold - don’t sell if he misses a game or two, or gets a few 2 pointers

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      No to Kolasinac

  6. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Who would you dump for a city mid - hazard or salah?

    1. TaiwanHC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      No one this week

    2. Numbuster
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      KDB to them? yes yes

  7. as33
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Hey, thinking to swap Bilva>Martial? or keep Bilva?

    1. Numbuster
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      keep Bilva and monitor Martial..

      myself planning to switch him out

  8. Afghanistanislas
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    May have to play one of the two below this GW, which would you go for:

    A) Bennett (playing Patricio as well)
    B) Barkley (unlikely to start)

    1. Numbuster
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      A

  9. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Ings dead again - hopefully back midweek

    1. Fantasy Gold
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Ings can only get better mate

    2. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Forced me into a wildcard shuffle. I agree with you that he is a good option. When Hughes goes he could be a great option.

      1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Jiminez the logical replacement on your WC? From what Hughes said it sounds like they could take a risk on Ings this weekend but want him 100% back, so he’s hopefully not too far away

  10. TaiwanHC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Gtg?

    Fabianski
    Alonso - TAA - Doherty - AWB
    Salah - Hazard - Richarlison - Maddison
    Aguero - Arnautovic

    Hamer, Wilson, Digne, 4.3

    1 FT and 1.5 ITB. Planning on WCing in GW16.

    Fabianski (Hamer)
    Robertson, Laporte, Doherty, (AWB) (Bennett)

    Kane, Arnautovic, Jimenez

    1. Numbuster

      Kane > Aguero

      next week only bring Kane in

      Ops u have 3 MAC player..

  13. jia you
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Four damn decent looking captaincy candidates in my team this week with Aguero, Sterling, Hazard and Kane!
    It's currently on Kun but could put a positive spin on all four!
    Who is your armband currently on and why?

    1. sunzip14
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Kun. Just afraid not to 😀

      1. La Roja
        • 12 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Concern on game time. Unless Jesus is still out

        1. jia you
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 11 months ago

          Wouldnt be a huge surprise if he scored at hattie in 60mins at home to BOU though either!

    2. The Overthinker
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Sterling or sane

  14. sunzip14
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Okay to save this GW if Haz and Arnie both likely to start? That would give some flexibility on transfer this coming GW. Or should I sell one of Mane/Hazard to Sterling/Sane?. Itb 1.7, 1FT

    Fab
    Alonso, Robbo, Duffy
    Hazard, Mane, Fanderson, Kenedy
    (K)un, Arnie, Vardy

    Hamer, Digne, Kayal, Stankovic

    1. Bialystrzelec
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Your team screams for more MCI

      1. sunzip14
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        So, Mane>Sane a good move for you?

        1. Bialystrzelec
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 11 months ago

          Yes, but I'd rather have Sterling

          1. sunzip14
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 11 months ago

            Can only afford by losing Hazard. Would have been easier if he was out and/or not against FUL. May be wait after this week for this move?

            1. Bialystrzelec
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 11 months ago

              Vardy is totally useless

              1. Numbuster
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 11 months ago

                take a hit with Vardy out for Sterling

              2. sunzip14
                • 7 Years
                5 years, 11 months ago

                got me 8 points last gw though, as I was about to throw him out. You are implying taking a hit by selling Vardy and buy Sterling? to whom though?

      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      I fail to understand Mitro.
      Playing Chelsea at the weekend.
      On 4 yellows so may not even play on Wednesday.
      Go Mitro to King maybe and you can afford Kane.
      Maybe Kane this week. You have Sterling to C.

      1. KneejerkJoe
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Thanks, Im buying Mitro for the long run, have faith in him. But I ser ur point, will reconcider.

        1. Eze Really?
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 11 months ago

          Get him but after his inevitable suspension. Can expect a price drop too.

          1. KneejerkJoe
            • 10 Years
            5 years, 11 months ago

            King is no go for me with their fixtures as I got Fraser. Toughts on Zaha, Rondon, Jimenez or Deeney? Noone excites me much....

            1. Eze Really?
              • 10 Years
              5 years, 11 months ago

              Jimenez as it enables the Kane tfr you want.

    3. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      A is the switch. Personally I would go with A Fraaer>Brooks switch in that position. The cash will come in handy. Great team. I like the Mitro pick!

      1. KneejerkJoe
        • 10 Years

    Ederson

    Sterling (c) salah Richarlison Fraser
    Aguero arnie
    Hamel success Jonny stephens

    No FT and 1.1 in bank, with Jonny and Stephens red flagged would you do a -4 to upgrade 1 of them to shaw, awb or pva or a 5.5 mid, or just hope Gomez and sterling start as I think all the others defo will

  20. white lightning
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 11 months ago

    Have I got my team spot on. 0ft & 0.6itb. My ft was Hazard to Sterling. Thanks in advance.

    Patricio
    Alonso, Robertson, Doherty, Digne
    Salah, Sterling (c), Richarlison, Billing
    Aguero, Arnautovic

    Fabianski, Bennett, Wilson, Fraser

    Playing Digne & Billing as the barrel is bare in terms of fixtures. Hudds might get a cs so at least Billing gets 3 points. Playing Digne over Bennett because I'm already playing double Wolves.
    Would you play Bennett over Digne Y or N

    Cheers.

    1. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Digne a risk. Play Wilson and Fraser. Score could easily be 5 2.

    Was bottomed in last page. Sorry for 2 posts, but need input.

    This week has the looks to be awful, but has turned out fine when it comes to injuries. Don't know how to use my FT's now.

    Patricio (Hamer)
    Alonso Robbo Doherty WB (Duffy)
    Salah Hazard Siggy Felipe (Billing)
    Aguero Arnie (Wilson)

    2FT, 0.3 itb.

    Patricio - is it time to change
    Wilson--will he continue form against better opponent.
    Haz- should one switch to City midfielder. Even if Haz is against Fulham.
    Aguero--does he defend a spot, has not been killing it.

    What's ur thoughts. Need feedback.

    1. Numbuster

      Want Fabianski in, but I'm not going to have to playable GKs if that's what you're asking.

      is yours disadvantages if u decide to bring out PAT and bring in FAB

    What shall We do with Hazard?
    I'm definatly wont ditch, but his he a captain material with the stats of him being poor when Morata plays?

    1. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Yep. You really need Morata to get dropped and Haz to play more than sub this week. Also 3 games in 7 days. Haz will be rested. Sarri hinted as much. Price drops too.

    2. Poison Apple
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Ditch if he is not fully fit.
      Ditch if morata is playing.
      Go with ur gut

    3. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      The first thing to do is to Captain him v Fulham anyways - let’s see how things look on Sunday evening then

    5. Numbuster

      believe to yourself..

      probably he get his brace from bench and get another winning goal or goal of the season?

      only tomorrow we will know.

  26. FlockofSeagulls

    I need who to bench help please you beautiful people. 🙂

    Currently I'm lined up like so but feels weird:

    Patricio
    Alonso Robertson Doherty AWB Fernandez
    Hazard Sterling(C) Shaqiri Martial
    Aguero

    Bench - Ryan Rondon Richarlson Wilson

    Help please?

    1. The Overthinker

      Looks good to me

    2. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      I would definitely start Rondon over Fernandez. Potentially Rich over AWB as well.

    3. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      I would play Richa or Wilson over Fernandez. Both can score against anyone.

    4. Eze Really?
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Also would not double up Wolves. I am but I have no choice like you

      If you are on a wildcard look longer term pick the squad you want moving forward. Don't plan transfers at this stage. E.g. Sterling/Kane could easily outperform Hazard/Kun this week. If you want them. Just bring them in now.

        Agreed!

      A is the most popular I think. However, I would consider C if Hazard is fit to start.

      C, Sterling played 180m in two matches.
      But I don't recommend for using FT after WC

      A

      Demel's advice above is sound - you should follow it. By the time Tuesday arrived you'll be pleased that your longer term players are all in place and you'll have FT to cope with any injury.

      A... C is a risk

    Bilva to Felipe Anderson, yes or no?

    1. Demel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      I prefer the switch to Siggy.

      1. RIDZ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        Already have Richarlison

    2. Amey

      If Arnie No!!
      No arnie and going to keep ando long term + free
      Go for it

      1. RIDZ
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 11 months ago

        I have Arnie, then who do you suggest for mid around 7.5?

        1. Numbuster
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 11 months ago

          keep the FT and monitor Schurrle

        2. Amey
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 11 months ago

          If 7.5 just save !!
          Bilva might play this week !!

    Holding Haz is a trap. Even with Ful(H)

      Haz is a troll - and this weekend he is going to be a massive troll. Holders think he’ll troll sellers, sellers think he’ll troll holders, holders think he’ll troll captainers.

      He’s going to troll for sure - it’s just which group gets trolled 😉

        Unfortunately you are spot in!!

      Probably. Im falling for (into?) it though

      Why do you think this?

    What are people doing with Martial? Keeping

    1. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 11 months ago

      Was abt to get rid but if Mou confirms Sanchez is injured then I guess Martial should start?

      Could also play Rashford on the left but dont think so...?
