FPL Breakfast Club – The Premium Debate

Join us for another episode of Fantasy Premier League Breakfast Club this morning.

We will be live from 11:15am on our YouTube channel, but you can also watch the show embedded in the article below.

Joe and David will be joined by Az today after he missed this week’s Scoutcast.

Having juggled moving house with his FPL plans over the last seven days we find out what he is looking to do in Gameweek 17.

We will also be discussing who the best captain is for the weekend, with Manchester City likely to rotate once again.

At 11:30am we will bring you the team news from the Etihad Stadium as the defending champions prepare to host Everton.

  19. adey70
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    On wildcard: big dilemma. Sane or Hazard? Currently on Sane with 1.9ITB. No other Man City coverage. Which feels weird.

    1. Totti
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      mehrez one week punt
      then switch to hazard

      1. adey70
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        A wildcard is for life, not just for Christmas!

    2. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Hazard

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

      Hazard. Already having an impressive season.

  20. JoeJitzu +42
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Horrible horrible feeling Pep could screw us with a front three of

    Bilva Aguero Mahrez

    Comfort me and say it won’t be so.....

    1. Pieterke30
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Wash your mouth!

    2. Fantasy Gold
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Anything is possible with the bald fraud

    3. Ligdon
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      And play who in midfield?

      1. JoeJitzu +42
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 4 months ago

        Fernandinho KDB Gundogan

  21. XABI 15
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Have mitrovic and Doherty.

    Play Bennett or balbuena?

    1. 4-4-who?
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Bennett

    2. Saint Tim
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Bennett

    3. AuFeld

  22. Tommo1888
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Torreria likely to keep his place ?

    1. Arteta
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Of course.

  23. Hazz
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Fabianski
    Robertson / Laporte / Kolasinac / Doherty
    Sterling / Son / Anderson
    Kane (C) / Aubameyang / Wilson

    Hamer // Fraser / AWB / Camarasa

    G2G? Or would you sub in Fraser for anyone?

    1. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      Team looks good to me.

    2. AuFeld
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      How do you not have Hazard?

  24. JONALDINHO
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 4 months ago

    Chances of Lacazette starting? Is it risky going without Kane and Auba? Have Salah, Sterling, Sane and Laca instead. Worth transferring any

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago

      50/50

    1. Maximus Bonimus Pointimus

      Of course they will

      I expect Aguero to start and KDB to play the last 30 (will still be 0-0 at the time)

    3. SAKA AND EMILE SMITH ROWE
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 4 months ago
