    I'm 20pts clear in my mini league and 2nd place has Aguero and TC left. I'm thinking of doing the following to hopefully consolidate. Would you do the following transfer for -4?

    Laporte, Eriksen, Vardy => Shaw, Pogba, Aguero

    Cheers

      Personally think Laporte will get 2 clean sheets, City have been so solid in the league defensively the past few months.

      1. MrFrodo
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        To be honest I don't want to lose Laporte

  2. Gudjohnsen
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    With Lascelles dropping tonight should I do Lascelles to Shaw tonight?

    1. Daghe Munegu
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yes

    2. Forever In Our Shadow

      Seems sensible.

    What to do here lads? 0.0 itb, 1FT, cheers!

    Lloris
    Vvd,Robbo,Doherty
    Mane,Eriksen,Son,Bernardo,Jota
    Kun,Jimenez

    Subs:Foster,Duffy,Long,Valery

    1. Daghe Munegu
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Nothing

    2. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I’d want Sterling for Eriksen by selling probably Bilva or doherty/vvd.
      If youre going safe, the. Eriksen out for Pogba.

  5. pjanns
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Any thoughts here?

    GTG right?

    Lloris
    Laporte - TAA - Robbo
    Son - Jota - Hazard - Mane
    Jiminez - Vardy - Aguero

    (Ryan - JWP - Valery - Peltier)

    1 ft 0,6 ITB

  6. FPL Blow-In

    Don’t know who to captain this week have too many good options! The Poll isn’t really agreeing with my thoughts either!

    1. FortunesAlwaysHiding
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I'd go with Aguero

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        I don’t own him though 😆

        Who from Sterling, Son, Mane, Pogba, Hota, Jiminez & Firmino.

        1. Gudjohnsen
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Sterling

          1. FPL Blow-In
            • 11 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            You think Leicester are going to roll over? I don’t.

            1. Gudjohnsen
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              Can't see it. Leicester not that good defensively.

    2. AuFeld
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      In order: Sterling, Aguero, Hazard, Mane, and Salah.

  7. FortunesAlwaysHiding
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Is Phil Foden too much of a risky pick for a draft league this week?

    1. Dthinger
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      yes

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I’d say so.

  8. tbhogal
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Which is the best option guys? Have 1FT £1.2M itb..

    A) Son > Pogba
    B) Duffy > Shaw
    C) Save FT

    Foster (Ryan)
    Robbo, Laporte, Doherty, Valery (Duffy)
    Son, Mane, Sterling, Jota (Hojberg)
    Kun, Jimi, (Llorente)..

  9. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Vardy vs Laca this week. What do they score?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I’d expect Laca to outscore him

    2. Viper
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Vardy 2

      Lacazette 7

    3. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      If rival has both worth -4 Vardy>Laca? I'm 43pts ahead

      1. Viper
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Nah, play your own game, it's got you into the great position you're in

    4. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      6 vs 7

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Can't see attacking returns against City

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Leicester are perfectly set-up to exploit Man City's only weakness, imo. Could be a 3-1 type game.

          1. AuFeld
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            MCI has a weakness?

            1. Twisted Saltergater
              • 14 Years
              4 years, 11 months ago

              Yes. unfortunately, you need to nail a 12 button combo to attack it.

              But yeah, no defence likes playing against pace.

  10. Drogba Legend
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    What to do with 1FT:

    Lloris
    TAA - Laporte - Valery
    Son - Eriksen - Jota - Mane
    Kun (C) - Jimenez - Firmino**

    Foster - Camarasa - Duffy - Dunk

    A) Firmino > Laca/Vardy/Rashford/Higuain?
    B) Duffy/Dunk > Doherty/Shaw/Digne

    Will BB this week too as I'm in the semis for my H2H playoffs

  11. Indalo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    I know on paper he has two easy fixtures, but why so much love for Pogba? Only returned in 1 of the last 8 games, and they were pens.

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Just must win games I suppose. I can see goals in them.

    2. Puzzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Wouldn't consider him if it wasn't for Huddersfield. They're just awful. Pogba has been as well tho

    3. Viper
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Almost every week someone hauls vs. Huddersfield so makes sense

    4. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      The Highest scoring player this week will be a Utd player vs Huddersfield for sure, even if thats not Pogba he will be involved in the goals

      1. Daghe Munegu
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Mata

    5. BROOKLYN GOONER
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Must-win games to preserve their hopes for fifth. But I will still avoid M. Haircut.

  12. Don Kloppeone
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Bit nervous about waiting until after pressers as I have exact cash for one of my possible moves tonight which involves Son > Sterling.

    Son on -96.3 and Sterling on +96.5 on fplstatistics

    What do you think?

    1. Maddamotha
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Hold

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        You don’t think either will move tonight?

  13. S3
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Martial flying below the radar...no one seems to be mentioning him.....

    1. AuFeld
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      For a reason. He wasn't in the squad last week.

    2. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      whoscored predicted team comment

      "After Anthony Martial's dressing room dressing down by Solskjaer last weekend, Alexis Sanchez could start here."

  14. Tmel
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Best triple captain option:

    a) Kun (LEI)
    b) Kun (bri)
    c) Sterling (LEI)
    d) Sterling (bri)

    1. Viper
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      A or C

      I'm not triple captaining but debating the captaincy. I think I'd go Sterling if I were you

    2. good biashara
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      B or D. I'd go with D.

    3. Blame it on Traore
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      D for me

  15. Viper
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    I'm trying to improve my OR but also catch up in mini leagues

    Normally I'd captain Aguero but a differential is needed for mini leagues so Sterling looks the best bet. Its a tough one.

    Sterling normally outscores him when they both start at home vs. sides outside the top 6 though

    1. Puzzle
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Surprised the poll is so uneven. Looks a fairly 50/50 choice for me.

      1. Viper
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Yeah, same. I guess Aguero is so reliable.

        Going for the golden boot and has pens too

        1. Twisted Saltergater
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Why would you put yourself in a position where you can't cheer every Aguero goal?? Come on Viper 😉

          1. Viper
            • 14 Years
            4 years, 11 months ago

            Haha, I know I know.

            Mini league rival is way out infront and will captain Aguero. That's the only reason I've had my head turned really

  16. bitars
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    So one final big decision of the season. I still have the TC coin to flip.
    Who in this team and in what game would you pull the trigger?

    Lloris

    VVD, Laporte, Doherty

    Mane, Eriksen, Son, Jota, Sterling

    Aguero, Lacazette, Aguero

    Ryan, Valery, Cathart, Holland

    1. bitars
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Aguero no 2 is Jimenez.

    2. Revival
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Sterling this week vs Leicester looks great to me

  17. Maddamotha
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Which one? 2FTs

    A) Eriksen, Martial to Sterling, Høibjerg (play Delu)
    B) Eriksen, Son to Sterling, Jota
    C) Eriksen, Wilson to Sterling, Quaner (play Delu)

    1. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Basically Sterling for Eriksen, and then sell son Wilson or martial.
      Probably have to be martial to go, with Wilson close behind.
      Not worth ditching son for a one week transfer in Jota.

  18. Cash'nBurn
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Who would you prefer for the last two game weeks?

    a) Digne

    or

    b) Shaw

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      B

    2. Viper
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      B

    3. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Shaw, just. But couldn't resist hedging my bets with both.

  19. Blame it on Traore
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Not mad about any of those moves but B from the options

  20. Mr_Barbs
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Favouring B but still not sure, thoughts?

    A) Eriksen & Dunk > B.Silva & Digne/Shaw
    B) Eriksen & Dunk > Redmond & Robertson/Laporte

  21. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Already have Robertson....
    Do I bring in TAA for the last 2 games or go with Shaw instead with his delicious fixtures???

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Shaw for me

    2. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Taa if your’e not planning on bringing in any Liverpool offensive players.

      1. 1912 F.A Cup Winners
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years

        Have no plans to, I have Mané and Robbo currently

    guys need you help plz

    Foster ryan
    vertonghen duffy doherty arnold valery
    erisken son mane sterling deulefeu
    aguero jimmy gray

    1FT and 0.5 itb

    A) eriksen -> B.silva
    B) eriksen and gray -> hazard and long (-4)
    C) vertonghen -> laporte or shaw
    D) eriksen and deulefeu -> jota and pogba
    E) eriksen and vertonghen -> hazard and jonny

    1. Big Al Stankovic
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I’d prefer E.
      Of you don’t want to hit, then Eriksen to Pogba or Bilva.

      1. Totti
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        will TC aguero or sterling
        so might take a hit no problem

        1. Big Al Stankovic
          • 11 Years
          4 years, 11 months ago

          Rather have a rested haz against Watford for a hit, then Pogba and Bilva who you never know what delivers.

  23. Blanka
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    What seems best for a - 4

    Salah & Llorente >> Pogba & Laca

    Salah & Deulofeu to Haz & Bilva

    Neither.

    Kolisinac > Shaw for free.

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Probably Kolasinac > Shaw!

      1. Big Al Stankovic
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        This.

  24. Big Al Stankovic
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Lloris/Gunn
    Laporte/Robbo/Bednarek/Duffy/dunk
    Salah/Mane/Son/Jota/4.0
    Aguero/Jimi/Ings
    2.2 itb, 1 ft.

    Been considering Sterling or Hazard for mane or son. Unfortunelately can’t afford Sterling for son in a straight swap, so could downgrade Duffy in a -4 deal.

    Any takers?

  25. Isco Disco
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Best Triple captain option guaranteed to give good returns this GW?
    Hazard (WAT)
    Kun (LEI)
    Sterling (LEI)

    Chasing my ML by 20 pts and he doesn't have any chips left. A TC success will make me the winner my ML.
    Please advise 🙂

        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Aguero for me - 2 goals and an assist and three bone eye

  26. Feed tha Sheep
    • 11 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Best transfer this week?
    A. Doucoure > Jota
    B. Vertonghen > TAA (Have Robertson)
    C. BSilva & Son > Sterling & Babel (-4)
    D. BSilva & Vardy > Sterling & Barnes (-4)
    E. Vertonghen & Son > Shaw & Hazard (-4)

    1. Twisted Saltergater

      B

      1. Feed tha Sheep
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Do you think son will start this weekend?

  27. Kiwivillan
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    My planned 2FT trades all week have been Trippier and Eriksen for Shaw Hazard but have exact for Trippier+Duff > Shaw+Laporte then I cover rivals Laporte and he has Eriksen. Makes sense to block 43pt lead in cash ML?

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      I'd be amazed if Eriksen starts vs Bournemouth. I know he has periods of rest during games, but the Ajax game is so important that I can't see even the fight for top 4 being a consideration. Win the Ajax game and they have a final home game to secure top 4.

      1. Kiwivillan
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Hazard actually TC consideration too which I still have to use. Shield vs sword

  28. FPLShaqiri
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    Will probably get rid of Vardy but what what you do in this spot? 2FT, 1.3ITB:

    Alison
    Valery / Robbo / Laporte
    Son / Eriksen / Mane / Jota
    Kun / Jimi / Vardy

    Ryan / JWP / Bednarek / Duffy

    1. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Eriksen + Vardy > Bilva/Pogba + Lukaku/Aubameyang?

  29. General_Zod
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 11 months ago

    2 FT. I think Im on B. Focus is OR. Currently 20k. Thanks All.

    A. Erik to Pogba
    B. Erik and Robbo to Hazard and Shaw
    C. Erik and Lorente to Martial and Rashford

    1. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      B sounds good. Think Pool will concede at the weekend.

      1. General_Zod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Yep, me too. Thx.

    2. Twisted Saltergater
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      Yeah, B is quite nice.

      1. General_Zod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Thx, man. Might get it done tonight.

    3. Tsparkes10
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      B is v nice

      1. General_Zod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        Thx TS. appreciated.

    4. Kiwivillan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 11 months ago

      B but Trippier instead of Robbo is my default planned trade so would choose that but selling Robbo is strange

      1. General_Zod
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 11 months ago

        I have TAA, Laporte, Valery, Doherty, Robbo. Robbo gives me the funds. All Shaw has to do is get one cleanie in my eyes. I think Lpool concede this GW.

        Essentially, the move leaves me with 3 Wolves on the bench next week, poss moving Jimi to Wilson.
