    Laca owners must be a bit miffed that he is starting tonight

      Not as miffed as someone who gets the FFS T Shirt for Christmas.

        I can't wait to see the look on my boys faces when they open their presents on Christmas morning.

        1. George Sillett
          • 10 Years

          They will be so proud of their dad. Will you be wearing your I love FPL boxers too ?

            • 16 Years

            No I always wear my silk thong on christmas day

            It's traditional

    2. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      That's one way of putting it! I'm going to have to use my emergency funds to switch to Aubameyang now.

      1. BoleynWin
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Debating whether to do the same move, have the mo ry ITB but would be for a hit. I’m hoping he gets pulled at half time, anything over 70 mins would be really worrying

        I was going to use the phrase "completely pissed" but there was a chance it could have been deleted.

        1. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          That would also been very accurate. I can only wonder at my own stupidity as I only brought him in last week!!

  3. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    wait, does the fpl cup start after gw 17? or is it before gw 17 based on gw16 scores? Cause I can't see my cup opponent

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      First round is GW17, GW16 was the qualifying week.

    2. BUZZBOMB ♡
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Same, yet GW16 score was 74?

  4. Tsparkes10
    • 7 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Ffs Laca... team is

    Fab
    VVD Alonso Doherty
    Rich Fraser Salah Felipe a
    Laca Kane Jimenez
    (4.0, Diangana, AWB, Dunk)

    1.9 itb and 1 FT

    Do i do Laca to Aubam or Rich to Mahrez/Alli...

    1. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      The former

    2. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Richarlison is one of the most nailed players around, given how much Silva values him. Definitely the Lacazette transfer, I'm looking at the same too (unless I get Hazard for Lacazette in a formation switch).

      1. mysteryDave
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Couple of nasty looking fixtures for Everton though. I am thinking about getting rid for now and back later.

        1. Tsparkes10
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Same. Will wc soon in next 3 gws so difficult

      2. Tsparkes10
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        True but can get rich back on wc. Laca may come on for last 30 and score

    3. Effe
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Laca to Auba

  5. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus
    • 15 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    True or False - Mané, Firmino and Salah have never scored or assisted vs Man Utd?

    1. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I'd assume it has to be false, but the fact that you're asking the question means it has to be true 😀

      1. Pierce34
        • 10 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I do remember Salah blanking vs. United last year though.

    2. Alnair
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      True, but Mane did get the FPL assist for Bailey's OG at Old Trafford.

    3. Gudjohnsen
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      True?

    4. XabiAlonso
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      There has to be a first for everything

  6. Atters
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Worth doing Laca - Auba for free?

    1. mysteryDave
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Is the Pope Catholic?

    2. Effe
      • 15 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely

    3. Botman and Robben
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Don't ask, just do it.

      1. Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        This sounds like something Yoda would say.

        “There is no ask. Just do!”

  7. mysteryDave
    • 16 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    There is a fine line between genius and insanity:

    OUT: Salah, Richarlinson, Alonso, Success
    IN: Aubameyang, Hazard, Kante, Lowe/Schindler
    -16

    Genius?
    Insanity?

    Better budget midfield/defence choice for 9.5 or less?

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Bad move imo

    2. Rhodes your boat
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Insane

    3. Pierce34
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      You're considering Kante as part of a -16 - has to be insanity I'm afraid 😉

    4. Nascimento
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      There is a fine line. Unfortunately you’re nowhere near it.

      1. mysteryDave
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I know. A ridiculous notion.

        I just realised that I could get Hazard and Aubamayeng in alongside Sterling and Kane.

        Folly to do it, although I think the maths may work out close after the game week. It could pay off but it is a long shot.

    5. BOATIES FC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Dunno, not sure I would be doing it for free personally

    6. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Don't like kante, lowe or the fact that you are getting rid of Alonso.. a -16 makes it even worse

      1. mysteryDave
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I don't like getting rid of Alonso but there is nowhere else I could squeeze to get 4 big hitters.
        Lowe could be Schindler or any other bargain bin defender. Likewise Kante.

        Could be Holebas/ McArthur. Better?

    7. fr3d
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      The voices in your head are not real

    8. All de Gea no iDier
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      How can you justify -16? Have you worked out how long it would take you, even in perfect GWs to recover that loss?

      Madness, and that is without considering the actual transfers.

  8. Rhodes your boat
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Got transfers wrong last week and you guys are always right so-

    A) siggy to son then back to richi in a few
    B) Digne to kola
    C) siggy to rich (sideways I know)
    D)save transfer

    1. Atters
      • 11 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Would you be starting siggy? I'd bring in Son if so

      1. Rhodes your boat
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Would be starting probably yes

    2. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      save

    3. mysteryDave
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Not C.

      It looks like you already know your plan A?

    4. Stockport Hatter
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      A

    5. FOMFF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      very tempted to bring Son in for Rich myself but not convinced he will start. Desperately seeking a way to squeeze Alli in

  9. Simon March
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Current WC team. Ideas much appreciated:

    Fabianski / Foster
    AWB / Alderweireld / Schindler / Alonso / Doherty
    Sterling / Richarlison / Anderson / Hazard / Masuaku
    Mitro / Kane / Jimenez

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Pool free zone - very brave.
      Good team but not sure about the keepers - Alisson as set and forget?
      How's it going this year?

      1. Simon March
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. It's going okay, could be a lot better if I was on the right side of a few 50:50s (e.g. Salah/Kane last GW).

      2. Simon March
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I agree with Pool being a risk, I just figure that, if there's an opportunity to gain an advantage for going without them, this might be it.

        1. Old Man
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Good luck!

    2. mysteryDave
      • 16 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I like it. I also have Kane upfront and a similar midfield and defence.

  10. Gloria Leicesterfan
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Dont you think Emery may be just giving Lacazette match fitness, as he was injured a few week back, and hasn't played 90 since that knock?

    1. Dannyb
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Apparently he did this with Aubam when he went through a patch. gave him 60 min on Europa league... took him off and started him at weekend

  11. Nespinha
    • 10 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Opinions please:

    A) Dsilva --- Sane

    B) Dsilva + Siggurdson (-4 hit) --- Sterling + Pereyra

    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 9 Years

      A

    2. mysteryDave
      • 16 Years

      A

  12. camarozz
    • 11 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Does this mean Kola and Auba are sure starters this wk end??

    My team for wk end.
    Dreading the lineups.

    Ryan

    Kola/Doherty/Balbuena

    Haz/Son/Salah/Anderson/
    Sane

    Auba(c) /Wilson

    (Awb/Kamara/Digne)

    Could have a few rested??

  13. Pieterke30
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    Would you rather have Son or Hazard for the next 4-5 games?

    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Son

    2. MTPockets
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Ignoring price - Hazard

        1. mysteryDave
          • 16 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          That is the key.
          Hazard will get more points.
          Son *might* be better value.

          1. Nomar
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 16 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Reality.

            Hazard has had 4 double digit scores so far this season.

            His last double digit score was GW8.

            He hasn’t collected a single BAP since GW8 either.

            Fun Fact: Alonso actually has the same number of double digit scores and more BAPs than Haz.

            I like Haz but he’s frustratingly inconsistent in his scores.

            1. mysteryDave
              • 16 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              True. Frustrating inconsistency.

              Alonso is yet to get a 20 point haul...

      • Syd.
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Hazard

      • Nomar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Son.

      Ederson
      TAA* Robertson Alonso Bellerin
      Sterling Alli Sané
      Wilson* Kane(c) Jimenez

      Hamer AWB Gunnarsson March

      A) Hold
      B) TAA > Doherty
      C) Wilson > Chicharito/Mitrovic
      D) b and c for -4

      1. mysteryDave
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Not B or D.
        I like Hernandez myself.

        1. Stockport Hatter
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          I think I’m leaning towards that move. Thanks.

    4. Stinglikeabee
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Even before him starting tonight I was a bit fearful of him not starting away from home on the weekend. It's crazy as he was my captain last weekend and now I don't want hin

      A) Would you change anything?
      B) If Trent is not fit, ditch him for Davies?
      C) Ederson Trent Sane -> Fabianski Davies Hazard over the next 2 weeks?

        Yes, but I might not be in the morning, 😀

    7. Tsparkes10
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      For next 2 or 3 gws...
      Rich, Laca to Sterling/Hazard, Deeney/Mitro/Chicha is stupid for a -4 right?

    8. FPL Mentor
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Start Laca or put him 1st sub for Brooks?

      1. Andy'81
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I'd probably start him if that's the decision, I'd also slow down with burning through the FT's early in the GW, 14 hits already is at the extreme end through 17 GW's.

        1. FPL Mentor
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 10 Years

    14. Deulofail
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Yes Laca!

      Now the small matter of whether or not you play the second half will prove to be a massive deciding factor for the rest of my season. Please don't force me to sell you.

        which fixture .......?

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Well that is the question isn't it, guess.

          1. Pieterke30
            • 9 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Spurs v Burnley ?

            1. Dynamic Duos
              • 12 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              Nope

      2. Syd.
        • 16 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        It certainly never lives to the expectation

        Usually a very dull and boring game of late

      3. Revival
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Liverpool vs Man Utd?

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 12 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          No last 2 have been 0-0

      4. Pieterke30

        City v Everton maybe then?
