Moving on from latest Pep-troll and the curse of the mid-price defender

For many of us, the last four Gameweeks of Fantasy Premier League have been comical, to say the least.

It’s certainly been that way for me. You couldn’t write it. Let’s go back to Gameweek 22.

Aboubakar Kamara (£4.5m) is transferred in just days before he decides to fight Aleksandar Mitrovic (£6.5m) in a yoga class. The first person in the history of yoga classes to start a fight in a yoga class. Kamara is loaned out to Yeni Malatyaspor as punishment and gets red-flagged.

In Gameweek 23, Marcos Alonso (£6.5m) was shipped out for Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold (£5.2m) on the Sunday night after the Spaniard managed just two points in Chelsea’s 2-1 win over Newcastle.

Tuesday rolls around and Trent is ruled out for four weeks due to injury. Burned by moving early. Another red flag.

On to Gameweek 24. The injured Alexander-Arnold makes may for Everton’s Lucas Digne (£5.3m). Digne is benched by Marko Silva, comes on for Leighton Baines (£5.0m) after 55 minutes and gets himself sent off shortly afterwards. A painful -2. Yes, you’ve guessed it, yet another red flag.

Next up, double Gameweek 25 and visions of 100+ points. “Leroy Sané (£9.7m) has the best chance of starting both games.” Captain Leroy it is then.

Pep Guardiola decides to bring his FPL trolling to a new level, not playing the German at all against Arsenal then substituting him in the 59th minute against Everton. One point over the two games. ONE! Despair for triple captainers.

Naming my podcast ‘The 59th Minute’ came back to bite me in spectacular fashion. One can only laugh (otherwise I’d cry).

With Chelsea up next then a Blank in Gameweek 27 coupled with the pain he’s caused, Sane is the most transferred-out player this week.

It’s no surprise to see that Son Heung-min (£8.7m) is the most popular replacement. The South Korean has scored in back-to-back games since returning from the Asian Cup and faces Leicester (home) and Burnley (away) in his next two.

He’s got seventeen attacking returns (10 goals, 7 assists) in just nineteen appearances this season. A points machine.

Paul Pogba (£8.6m) and Sadio Mané (£9.5m) are two others to consider for those looking to jump off a Man City midfielder this week.

Pogba has six goals and three assists in his last seven appearances while Mane has outshone his more expensive teammate Mohamed Salah (£13.6m) in recent Gameweeks scoring in each of the last three matches. Mo points for less Mane?

Richarlison (£6.8m) is another player who has to go soon. The curse of ‘keeping a player because he has a double Gameweek’ strikes again. One attacking return in seven just isn’t good enough.

There are plenty of replacement options with the likes of Diogo Jota (£6.0m), Pascal Gross (£6.7m) and James Ward-Prowse (£5.1m) finding form in recent weeks. Early season favourites Ryan Fraser (£6.1m) and Felipe Anderson (£7.1m) shouldn’t be ignored either.

Eden Hazard (£10.9m) and Gonzalo Higuain (£9.5m) linked up well versus Huddersfield and posted good scores but it’s important to remember that it was Huddersfield, a team preparing for life back in the Championship.

The Blues face Man City (away) then have a blank in Gameweek 27 followed by Spurs (home). A tricky run. Higuain is on the Watchlist for now while Hazard will be making way this week to make space for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.2m).

The Gabonese international should do damage over the next three Gameweeks as his Arsenal side come up against Huddersfield (away), Southampton (home) and Bournemouth (home).

Captaincy for Gameweek 26 isn’t straightforward. Salah faces Bournemouth at home but he has blanked in the last two Gameweeks.

Aubameyang has 15 goals to his name but just six of those have come away from the Emirates, and he has had an illness in the week too.

The likes of Pogba and Rashford should be considered as they travel to face a struggling Fulham side.

Son is another candidate this week with Spurs welcoming Leicester to Wembley. Lots of options.

Having captained Mo for his hat trick against Bournemouth earlier in the season, I think that’s where my armband will be, come deadline on Saturday.

    Need to transfer out Richarlison, and thinking of Arsenal midfielder as good fixtures. Any Arsenal experts got any idea who is likely to play, especially in next-but-one game-week when City, etc not playing?

    1. TeamSteam
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      None of the Arsenal mids are worth owning in fpl. Back to the drawing board.

    2. Captain_Shirokov
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Avoid Arsenal midfielders.

      1. Tambling5
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Fair enough. Have done so far, but surely one must come good someday! Always up for listening to the odd hunch!

        1. Pierce34
          • 8 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Nobody has a clue about the Arsenal mids, especially not Emery 😉

          1. Mysterion
            • 6 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            His midfield rotation, injuries, etc. have contributed to this unbelievable stat - 44 midfielders have more points than the highest scoring Arsenal mid so far

            1. Pierce34
              • 8 Years
              5 years, 1 month ago

              Yep, a lot of it was self-inflicted too, like his insistence of frequently leaving Ramsey out and just playing wing-backs with a bunch of defensive mids.

              1. Mysterion
                • 6 Years
                5 years, 1 month ago

                Ah right Xhaka-Torreira fairly nailed but change in formation is likely the biggest factor, wonder if Ramsey will at least get starts in the EL now...

    3. Bram
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Nobody really viable in midfield for Ars yet - Mikhi's return may offer something or Suarez if/when he settles but very very punty for now - if one starts and hauls this gw though they could be popular next. Laca/Auba up top or Kola at the back the only viable gooners atm really.

    4. Fantasy Premington
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Torreira is nailed and takes a fair few set pieces, likes to get forward. So he's the best option. If Ozil got a run in the team he's obviously the one but yeah Ramsey is in and out, Xhaka is injured, Guendy is playing constantly atm but that could change and his attacking returns are limited anyway

      1. Tambling5
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Thanks! Much appreciated.

    With auba comment, firmino to lacazette a good move?

    1. TeamSteam
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      If you have Firmino, surely you keep ahead of Bournemouth @home.

      1. Azathoth
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        This.

      2. waltzingmatildas
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah, although I have Robertson and Salah as well. Wouldn't mind some arsenal against Huddersfield

        1. TeamSteam
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Surely theres a better transfer you can make than selling Firmino? Arsenal players would be nice, i agree, but even though Huddersfield are bad, Arsenal arent exactly trustworthy.

    2. La Roja

      What’s Auba Comment?

      1. Rihanovic
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Apparently he is sick, but fine for Saturday.

  3. eamonhegg
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    HELPPPP! Possibly my worst ever score on fantasy ever! 34 points!! Dropped from 81k>198k in 1 GW. Stuff of nightmares.

    What should I do with this team? WC or too kneejerky? 0.7itb

    Boruc / whiteman
    Rob / Doc / WB / digne / valery
    Rich / Salah / Sane / Pog / lucas
    Auba / Rash / Ings

    1. Bram
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Certainly no need to wc - you have a decent starting XI even keeping and rolling the free when many will likely be hitting by gw27 blanks.

    2. Carefree Crew
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Don't Wildcard! Your team doesn't need major surgery so it doesn't justify it. Save for week before DGW, then set up for bench boost DGW & reap the reward.
      Ings (INJ hamstring) for Jiminez if you can afford it.
      Sane to Son of you need to source funds. GK looks weak. Patricio has favourable fixtures. Seriously don't wildcard I think you'll regret it if you do. Good luck!

    3. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Sane to Son

    4. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      sane > son

  4. Azathoth
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Dare to cpt Jimenez or take it easy and cpt Mo?

  5. AdamJ91
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who do you think is the best defender to own for the next say 4/5 GWs? Money isn't an issue.

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Kolasinac

    2. 2hotty
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      prob robbo, van dyk kola or doherty

    3. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      For next 3 Kola. For next 5 Doherty

    4. Bram
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Always hard to look past Robertson and ofc a retrurning (finally?!) TAA - Kola & Doherty for the next few - Pereira probably popular after this week.

  6. Niho992
    • 5 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Blank fixtures are GW 31 and GW 33. So when you will use your FH?

    1. The 5% Team
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      probably 31...but ask again after FA cup matches and draw

    2. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Will try to plan transfers for the blanks & save FH for mega DGW

      1. Niho992
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        It s hard to field 7-8 players for BGW 31 and what about 11...

    3. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      thinking gw31 .Cant carry dross in my team for weeks if all big teams dont play there

  7. 2hotty
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Which moves?????
    1-Sane to Mane
    2-Ageuro to Aubamayang
    3-both for a -4
    4 save FT

    1. claretparrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Unless you're chasing, hold and do both for free next week

    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Dropped from 28k to 52k in week 25. Do you think this team will pull me back up? Steele to Ryan and Hazard to Pogba ( but may yet be Sané to Pogba?!)

    Ryan
    Doherty Van Dijk Kolasinac
    Salah Hazard Pogba Sané
    Rashford Aubemeyang Jimenez

    Boruc Bednarek AWB Gunnarsson

    1. claretparrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Don't get the transfers comments. You have all three?

      1. dunas_dog
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Sorry! I set out team assuming I had already made transfers

  9. Drogba Legend
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on these moves for the weekend?

    Patricio
    Robbo - Trippier - TAA**
    Salah (C) - Sane - Hazard - Rich - Deulofeu
    Rash - Jimenez

    Fabs - AWB - Ings** - Digne

    2FT, .5 ITB

    A) Hazard + Ings > Auba + 5.7 midfielder
    B) Hazard + Ings > Kun + 5.5 midfielder
    C) Hazard + Ings > Laca + 7.6 midfielder (Bilva/Anderson/Groß?)
    D) Keep Hazard, don't need Laca/Auba, and do something else?

    1. Niho992
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Why would you do B(bring Kun now). Youre late

      1. claretparrot
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        I know it's boring, but wait for pressers and Auba news. As above, definitely not B

      2. Drogba Legend
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Just a thought and wanted to get opinions given current form and upcoming fixtures after blank for citeh

    2. Drogba Legend
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Really would like to go Laca as a differential.

    3. Fantasy Premington
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      We have quite similar teams and I'm using the 2 ft to go hazard and Ings to Westwood and auba

      1. Drogba Legend
        • 6 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers, was thinking something like that but I'm behind in my ML and thinking Laca could be a big differential.

  10. La Roja

        If you've got a long layover, the lounge in Muscat is less than £40 and they sometimes give you a hotel-style room for free!

    I don't usually do these, but my fingers are very itchy today! Any help appreciated... GTG?

    Etheridge
    Shaw - Robbo - Toby
    Pogba - Salah (C) - Son - Shaq

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Agreed I hate Shaq.

        Seems a good chance he'll start though, could then do Kun and Shaq >> Vardy and Mané for 27

        1. 2hotty
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          vardy a no no for me hates his manager and manager hates him. i would do shaq to jota this week and then do ageuro to aubamayang next week

    2. Pilgrim62
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Play Jonny instead of Shaq imo

    Sane to Mane for -4?

    Thanks

    1. claretparrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years

      Think I'd leave, unless you're chasing

    2. FFSbet.com
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Consider the same,think i would do it.

      Should pay off with Sane blanks and some benching.

    3. 2hotty

      • 8 Years

      Much ado probably about nothing. He was ill today but Emery expects he will ok for game. Koscielny ill yesterday and fine today

        this

  15. columbo
    • 13 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Siggy seems to be out the team now.. Tempted with him to Mane, will cost -4 but rather do it this week than next. Only issue is triple Liverpool attack.. -. -

    1. Ambrosiana Inter
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Triple Liverpool attack not an issue

      1. columbo
        • 13 Years

        Thanks mate. Will wait tomorrow but gonna do it I think!

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years

      expect him to start this weekend, not worth -4

  16. Jinswick

    Evening all, best move here?

    A) Sane -> Son(c)
    B) Hazard & Sterling -> Salah(c) & Son (-4)
    C) Hazard / Sterling & Siggy -> Son(c) & Mane (-4)
    D) Sane & Ings -> Son(c) & Jimenez (-4)
    E) Sane, Sterling & Hazard -> Salah(c), Son & Mane (-8)

    Fabs
    Kolasinac, TAA, Doherty, Holebas
    Sterling, Hazard, Sane, Siggy
    Auba, Rashford

    Steele, Digne, Camarasa, Ings
    Bank 0.2m, 1FT, all chips left

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years

      B for me

    2. claretparrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I'd be really tempted by E! Sterling out only risks having Sané one pointer.

      Of the -4s I think I'd go D.

    3. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years

  17. Ambrosiana Inter

    Is martial overlooked?
    Can he outscore pogba this week?

    1. wernerhedgehog
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      United fan here.

      Martial's good for some returns, but not as integral to Ole's attacking play as much as Pogba. He's 3rd best in the team.

  18. BigAsGiroud_
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    1. Get Son this gw and Auba next gw
    or
    2. Get Auba first and Son next gw

    1. claretparrot
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Really tricky! Probably Son first just for the 'diff' factor

    2. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      depends who for

      1. BigAsGiroud_
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Take out Hazard and Wilson

        1. claretparrot
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 5 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          Have you got the cash to go straight from Wilson to Auba!?

          1. BigAsGiroud_
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 1 month ago

            No, need to cash out Hazard then Wilson to Auba. Have 2ft, so planning Hazard + Wilson to Auba and 5.9, and Rich to Son next week.With Auba’s illness, tempted to get Son first.

  19. CostaCoffee
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Who would you keep for this weekend:
    Hazard or Sterling? Downgrading one of them to upgrade Kamara to Auba (2ft)

  20. Weasel51
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Hazard to Son this week with an FT?

    1. EMBOLOFAN
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      think its fine

  21. Jimmy Boy
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Richarlison to Son for free a no-brainer?

    1. claretparrot

    Flappy

    Doherty, WBA, Kola

    C Salah, Pogba, Son, Sane,

    Jiménez, Rashford, Kun,

    Button, Jota, Pereira, TAA

    Sané > Mane or any other suggestions?

    Button goes soon to Boruc, ready for BB?

    With Auba being flagged, he is don't buy or don't sell right?

      Pretty much

    For those fretting about Aubemyang:

    Koscielny appears to have been ill aswell but trained today.

    Just wait for pictures from tomorrow's training session as we will see if Aub is in training.

      If it's a 24 hour thing being passed around I wonder who will get it on match day!

        Öz ill

        Probably Kolasinac the way my luck going!

        Ozil May decide he needs a rest!

    Any ideas for this team?

    Fabianski
    TAA*, Doherty, Shaw
    Salah (c), Sané, Pogba, Richarlison
    Aguero, Rashford, Jiménez

    Button, Digne, AWB, Højbjerg

    1FT, 1.3 ITB

    1. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Sane to Son & play AWB instead of TAA

    2. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Sane > Mane or Kun > Auba are what I’m looking at

  26. sirmorbach
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Should I play Fabianski or Guaita?

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Guaita for me

    2. Tcheco
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Guaita

  27. RAFA THE GAFFA
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Having a terrible season. Best pick here?

    1FT & 0.9 itb.

    A. Sané >> Mane
    B. Aguero >> Auba
    C. Save FT

    Fabianski
    Kolasinac • Doherty • AWB
    Sané • Rich • Salah(C) • Son • Martial
    Rashford • Aguero
    (Button / Bedranek / Digne / Kamara)

    1. Albert_Luque
      • 9 Years

      Its a tricky one as you'd want to do both before the blank GWK. I'd say get rid of the Man City player you think is more likely to be benched this week.

      1. Albert_Luque
        • 9 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Or D, gamble on Almiron absolutely bossing it against Wolves in a 30 minute cameo.

        1. RAFA THE GAFFA
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          What’s D? Haha

      2. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Pep roulette is impossible. My guess would be Kun is the only safe ish one. But that might blow up on Sunday when he starts Jesus

    2. Kuzser
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      B or C.bring mane after MU

    3. Amey
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Auba if fit.
      Otherwise Mane

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Fancy Auba to score well this week?

    4. Fpl Richie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Wait until close to the deadline I'd say. A at the moment. But B is essential next week.

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Cheers. Could gamble and do both. Poor rank and poor season so might be worth it?

    5. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
      • 6 Years

      same spot and undecided .Did sane to son and facing the same kun to auba -4 this week or for free next week.Its tricky

      1. RAFA THE GAFFA
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        Will you boys hold strong and turn up at Etihad? Or could we see a performance like at Spurs or B’mouth?

        1. IAWC ( It's a Wonderfu…
          • 6 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          ha absolutely no clue mate .We have been so unpredictbale.I think with one week to prepare should turn up but u never know

  28. Albert_Luque

    1ft, nil in the bank. Thinking Sane to Mane with the below, any opinions much appreciated.

    Patricio-Hamer
    Luiz-Dunk-AWB-Shaw-Bednarek
    Salah-Sane-Son-Pogba-Richarlison
    Auba-Jimenez-Success

    1. RAFA THE GAFFA
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Yep, or save. Similar above

    2. pingissimus
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      I’d be tempted to swap out Rich this week for Jota if fit - the Wolves double up is really tempting.

  29. Claudio555
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    Will Sane start the next game you think?

    1. Kuzser
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      After this dgw you never know. Might start bearing in mind he played only 58min

      1. Warbling Wendy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 1 month ago

        It doesn't mean diddly squat that he was subbed off. Pep will pick the players to best implement whatever tactics/formation/strategy he is a drawn up to best Chelsea - which could be absoloutely anything.

        1. Warbling Wendy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          5 years, 1 month ago

          he has *

    2. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Trying to guess who is starting for Man City is the mother of fool's errands

    3. Gringo Kid
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      5 years, 1 month ago

      Only Pep knows that

  30. Kuzser
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 1 month ago

    What is a better option for this week:
    1) Sane Son + 4 points
    2) Hazard Son + 4 points
    3) Son Auba

    Thinking in what order to get rid of Sane, Hazard and Kamara to get Son and Auba
