    4. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      i would play 4 DEF if your 3rd FWD or 5th MID not much impressive

      Bench DE

    Kun owners.

    Holding or swapping out and bring back with Jan WC.

    Very expensive to sit around is all, would rather use funds for Sterling +

    1. SC not pearls before swine
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      If you've held this long, I'd probably keep. I'm awful tempted to bring him in now.

    2. Point-one short
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Jan WC? What madness is this?

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Hmmm, a strange one indeed coming from a manager in his tenth year on this site!

    3. Osman
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Swap, you don't necessarily have to use a WC to bring him back tho.

  6. jdp219
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Drafting WC. Have Sterling, Anderson, Hazard; Kane, Wilson; Robbo, Doherty.

    Have some choices to make:
    Sane or Son?
    Fraser or Wilson? Or both?
    DLuiz or Alonso?
    3-5-2 with Kamara or 3-4-3 with Jimenez?

    1. SC not pearls before swine
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I prefer Sane, but both are good.
      I prefer Wilson, but either, neither or both is fine.
      I prefer Luiz.
      I'd lean toward Jimenez, although I guess it depends on the 5th midfielder, but personally I don't love any of the midfielders for less than Raul's 6.1.

      1. jdp219
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        If I went with five mids, they'd likely be Sterling, Sane, Hazard, Fraser, Anderson. Fraser has been in my squad since gw6, so there's a good amount of value there.
        My bench fwd would be Kamara, or maybe Success.
        I think a lot of this will depend on Wilson news.

        Thanks!

      Sane, son 4 games left till Asia tourney

  7. Wılly
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Team set, is Richarlison better off being on the bench?

    Fabianski
    Luiz Robertson Kolasinac Doherty
    Fraser Sterling Sane
    Kane(c) Aubameyang Jimenez

    Richarlison, Wan-Bissaka, Gibbs-White

    1. Osman
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Looks good,

      looks like you don't care about pep's mad rotation

      1. Wılly
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        I did but I lapsed when wildcarding last week.
        Nice team and nice rank Osman!

        1. Osman
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          Thank you, and fingers crossed, hope they both play

    2. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      just bench rich

  8. Silecro

    5 years, 3 months ago

    Emery on Lacazette and Sokratis playing ahead of busy schedule…

    "........ for example Sokratis, he cannot play Sunday and he could play today. Lacazette, I think he needs rhythm to play and it’s not bad for him to play today. We decided for this reason and because every player who played today can play Sunday."

    Hm, good or bad news? not sure myself but it leans a bit towards good news, but just a bit

    1. Ask Yourself
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      By saying Laca needs rhythm sounds great to me

    2. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Sounds positive to me for Laca owners

    3. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      *Clutching at straws* Sounds good enough to me!

    4. ILOVEBAPS
      • 11 Years

      Can't believe I trusted him with the captaincy last GW.

  9. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Who scores more this week?

    A. Laca + WanBissaka + 4 points
    Or
    B. Pereyra + Chicharito

    1. Point-one short
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      A most likely

    2. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE

    2. Lukaku91

      chicharito

    3. SC not pearls before swine
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Is Wilson out? But I prefer Mitrovic of the two

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Not sure if he's 100% out or not but I've already lost 0.1 as his price dropped.

        1. Point-one short
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          You've already lost the 0.1 - wait for the presser

    4. mgilbert86
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Why cant you wait for presser?

      1. the dom 1
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Fair play lads - i'll wait for the presser 🙂 thanks

    5. Ynwalfc
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I’ve swapped him for Jiminez, there isn’t much difference in the two recently there both playing well

  11. Differential C (Mark)
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Damn, didn't think Brooksy would fall.
    Ah well, it is what it is.

  12. Lukaku91
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Week 17 (To play one )
    1 Richarlison
    2 Kamara

    1. Pierce34
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Top of the page post not good enough for you? 😛

      Play Richarlison.

      1. Lukaku91
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        but top of the page said play kamara.. now im confused..

        play kamara or richarlison?

        1. Pierce34
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          Just go with your gut. My opinion is Richarlison - guaranteed to start, plays for a better team, and is a better player. City defence have not been exactly impregnable lately.

          1. Lukaku91
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            fair point. thanx

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years

      1

    3. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      try kamara... probably may get a goal from him

      1. Lukaku91
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        thx

    4. panda07
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I'd go Rich, is Kamara guaranteed to start?

      1. waldo666
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Far from guaranteed.

  13. Point-one short
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Right starting 11 and bench order you reckon?

    Fab
    Alonso, Luiz, Robertson
    Sterling, Sane, Son, Anderson
    (K)ane, Chicarito, Jimenez

    Steele | Doherty, AWB, son-of-a-Gunnarsson

    1. Numbuster
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      bench luiz, play doherty

    2. Ynwalfc
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I’d Stick with Doherty first sub GTG. He’ll probably come in anyway for either Sané,Sterling or Son

  14. ChelseaGuy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Got exact funds for
    Martial + Success ->
    Fanderson + Chicharito (-4)

    Yes or No?

      1. Lukaku91
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        with exact funds could be risky

    Auba Wilson

    Hamer Richarlison Success Hojbjerg

    A) Salah

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3. ILOVEBAPS
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I like any of the first 3.
      A the most appealing to me but if YOU really want Torreira then go for it. Personally I'd rather Snodgrass or Young.

      1. panda07
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah B with Snodgrass instead of Torreira sounds good

        1. Lukaku91
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          agreed

      Are you rotating keepers or will this be your only playing keeper?

      1. Scheister
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Only keeper. Button on bench.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          I'd probably go C then

    3. ILOVEBAPS

    I've got both TAA and Martial. Any insider info on if either will play?

    If not, is playing Hojbjerg a better option than dropping Martial and taking a -4 hit to add a middie like Richarlison, Siggy, BSilva, Fraser, Torreia, Paterson, or Snodgrass?

    As always thanks for advice.

      Would need to the rest of ur team

      1. fantasygurumd
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Sure thing:

        Alonso Doherty TAA Digne AWB
        Sterling Anderson Son Martial Hojbjerg
        Auba Kana Jimenez

        If both are out I'd have to use two of Digne/AWB/Hoj

    2. Ynwalfc
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Yes ur bench isn’t that good, I see ur problem

    3. Ynwalfc
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I’d do Digne to Luiz if you can

            5 years, 3 months ago

            Oh, good you have him 😛

            I never got a chance, was stuck with King...

            1. NABIL - FPL otai
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 3 months ago

              King was my GW1 pick.

              Glad I made the switch albeit a bit late to the party

  20. Scheister
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Play Fraser (wol) or Richarlison (mci)

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Fraser

    2. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      F

  21. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Trippier to

    A. Alonso
    B. Luiz
    C. Robbo
    D. Schindler (money to upgrade laporte/fraser/snoddy later if needed)
    E. Keep (awb 1st bench)

    Rest of D:
    Digne Doherty awb Laporte

    1. Holmes

        This week? Not a fan of their upcoming fix though

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          I think CS looks likely in every game except Man City in next 5

          Its kind of long investment as well, in the end, we will probably have to give up and bring a Liverpool defender by GW22 😮

          1. NABIL - FPL otai
            • 11 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            You think so? Yeah I kinda agree with it, considering the high ownership and playing safe.

            Feeling maverick though (lol) and getting Schindler and maybe do laporte to robbo next week

            U dont think Tripp will play?

    2. Ynwalfc
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Alonso, his fixtures are good and he’s due some big points

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Agree but then So many near misses and luiz outscorong him for weeks making it not an easy choice to make

  22. E25
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Still have WC so this could be a 2-3 week punt. Will probably want Rich back in a couple of weeks.

    Foster
    Robbo Alonso Doherty
    Sane Sterling Fraser Rich
    Kane Laca Jiminez

    Fab / WB Hojbjerg Digne

    A) Rich to Snodgrass
    B) Rich, Digne to FAnderson + 4.5 (Schindler??) -4
    C) Save

  23. Gabistuta
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    A number of mini-fires but until the pressers im holding.

    Fab,
    TAA*, Doherty, Alonso, WB
    Sane, Sterl, Fando
    Wilson*, Auba, Kane

    Hamer, Digne, Brooks, Diag
    1FT, 0.7ITB
    My thinking is:

    1. TAA/Brooks to Robbo/gunnarson -4
    2. TAA to Kola or luiz
    3. TAA/Wilson to Rob/Jim -4
    4. Save
    5. Any other ideas?

    Thanks

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      2 toss a coin

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Lets see if Wilson is fit or not

      If he is not, then C makes sense otherwise 2 with Luiz will do the job

    3. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      So what is the news.
      TAA is out and Wilson probably out?

    4. Gabistuta
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Thanks guys. Yeah looks like TAA is definitely out and Wilson, who knows bar Mr Howe

  24. Abby

    Need your thoughts guys, would you transfer Sigurdsson out for Pereyra?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Nope

      1. Abby
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Give me good reason?

    1. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Good team except for no keepers is a big worry

      Auba or kane if you can stretch it

      1. liboo
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        fabianski Henessey is my keepers

        no money for kane
        can make Auba

  26. Albrightondknight
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    I have Sterling
    If I can get get Haz over Sane next week who should I go for Haz?

    Haz means a bench like
    Jimenez/Snodgrass, Schindler Stephens

    Sane means bench
    Like Snodgrass Jimenez Stephens

  27. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Who scores more this week and probably the next 4-5 weeks?

    A. Laca + WanBissaka + 4 points
    Or
    B. Pereyra + Chicharito

  28. MikeLowrey
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 3 months ago

    Any news on Wilson? I've got a few flags to deal with - Stones, LucasPerez, Wilson, TAA

  29. Hotdogs for Tea
    • 8 Years

    Everyone here on FFS piled in on captaining Kane against a weak Cardiff just a few days after an emotionally charged game against Barce

    This weekend Spurs play a leaky Burnley after another emotionally charged game against Barce just a few days ago.

    I wonder whether the FFS massive has learned any lessons from this ... or will everyone be following the wisdom of the crowd again ? 🙂

    1. Deulofail
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I there even a lesson to be learnt?

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Certainly is, players always find it hard to pick up their game against weaker opposition a few days after a big game against one of the top teams in the world, so captaining Kane, as against Cardiff, may not be a great idea.

        Hazard though, away to Brighton, rested, talisman, maybe having Giroud starting, and involved in more Chelsea goals than Kane or Salah are for their respective teams ... mmm ...

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          Barca played second string team. Brighton are good at the Amex and don’t concede much there

          1. Hotdogs for Tea
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            It was still a huge emotional game for Spurs, which is my point.

            Brighton have had reasonably easy fixtures at home recently but have served up a huge number of attempts at goal against them - Chelsea will be a lot more accurate than the likes of Wolves

        2. Deulofail
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          Do you have any more examples? You kinda said the lesson was to be learnt from that one game originally...

          1. Hotdogs for Tea
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            From that specific game - Barce

            And yes, my very own supported team normally drops off against lessor opposition after beating one of the PL big guns ... it’s an emotion and mentality thing

    2. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      Not everyone went for Kane 😉

      With Spurs run of fixtures, Burnleys defensive frailties, Kane’s stats and the fact that he had a rest.. most obvious captaincy of the season thus far from my perspective

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        I bought and captained Laca that week 🙂

        Barce to Burnley though ... hard to get up for that 😉

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 3 months ago

          Good shout going against the grain when it pays off! I feel like Kane is definitely going to do well against Dyche’s men this week though

          1. Hotdogs for Tea
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 3 months ago

            So do I, but I look back at the Cardiff game and it seems like the same again, hits to get Kane etc ... will decide later though

    3. Osman
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      It is not really a wisdom of the crowd issue this week, there is not much contention for the armband this week..

      CHE - away game
      LIV - Slightly tougher fixture
      CITY - inform Everton.

      1. Hotdogs for Tea
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 3 months ago

        Chelsea away to Brighton though - who are right up there for most shots conceded in the last 4 home games .... looks like a decent alternative

    4. Hotdogs for Tea
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 3 months ago

      I think I was pretty much spot on there, cold, rain and a lethargic Spurs ... Kane getting a late assist to save the blushes of his captainers.

      Let’s hope we have learned a lesson from this and the Cardiff game, that a big night in Europe a few days before the PL weekend makes the ‘easy’ fixture not quite the walk over that many expect and hope for 😉

    a) Martial > Son

    b) TAA + Martial > Kolasinac + Sane (-4)

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 9 Years

      B

    2. Osman
