FPL Question Time – Consult our panel ahead of Gameweek 3

It is a short but important week coming up for Fantasy Premier League managers.

Who’s on the panel this week?

Simon March – Former FPL champion who won the title in 2014/15 and has provided excellent advice ever since.

    Wilson & Fraser to Kane & Trossard for a hit sounds good ? Team will be:
    Pope
    KWP TAA Digne Montoya
    Salah Sterling(c) Trossard McGinn
    Kane Pukki
    Button Lundstram Perez Greenwood

      Captain Kane if you are bringing him in as part of a hit

      1. The Wanton Trader
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Damn, you got there first 😆

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          You capping Kane this GW?

          1. The Wanton Trader
            • 6 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            100%.
            Not going to lie though, Sterling v Bournemouth does worry me...

            1. Miguel Sanchez
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              But do you have Sterling?

              1. The Wanton Trader
                • 6 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Yes, so it won’t hurt too bad. Unless he goes crazy that is...

    2. The Wanton Trader
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Looks good.
      If you’re bringing Kane in, I’d captain him v Newcastle...

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

        Maybe this week there will actually be a real discussion of whom to captain?
        I am on Sterling but will probably bounce back and forth to Kane for the rest of the week...
        Nec

        1. smix
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Hmmm. Yeah. Will probably captain Kane but worried bcoz he disappointed me a couple of times last times by playing in CDM positions against teams defending deep.. also sterling’s record against Bou is incredible and Bou will not sit back at home

          1. smix
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            *last season

          2. FOMFF
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Son is back though. (K)ane all the way

        2. The Wanton Trader
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Got fed up with the Salah v Sterling last week, so I stuck it on Martial. 🙂
          This week though, I was always going to stick it on Kane and I won’t let myself get dragged into a, “well Sterling does well against a Bournemouth”discussion, or the likes...

  2. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Need to lose that punk Perez, not taking a loss on him.

    A Perez Digne ---》 KDB Dunk

    B Robbo Perez --》 AWB KDB ( risk playing AMN vs pool when Digne fails )

    Can't see Digne playing Friday even if it's even a slight hammy twinge ( week to 10 days usually )

    1. XABI 15
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I really want to get rid off him. Have Moura who is a bigger worry as I doubt he starts...

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I have Moura too. Tough decision. Can see Moura playing at weekend with Son starting on bench. What does Lucas need to do to nail a spot down. He's more effective than Kane at mo

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Definite B for me

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers

    3. The Wanton Trader
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I’m keeping him for the next 2.
      If he can’t do anything against Sheff Utd and Bournemouth, then he’s sacked...

      1. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I honestly think he will be dropped..he slows them down massively

        1. The Wanton Trader
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          If that does happen, then he’s obviously gone from my team.
          I’d like to think Rodgers would persevere with him a bit though. He must of wanted him or he wouldn’t of signed him in the first place...

    4. FOMFF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B if you have TAA. A if Robbo is your only pool wingback

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

      B

    6. Wild Card this!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B

    7. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah I got rid of him after watching his game. He was awful, he was out on the wing and was so deep on many occasions. Never got into the game. If starts there all season he'll never assist or score.

  3. XABI 15
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    For a -4 which would you rather? thanks

    Trent Moura Wilson >> AWB Mount Kane
    or
    Robbo instead of Trent

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

      selling taa (best value 7m+ player available) is pretty funny idea

      1. XABI 15
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        not when you have x2 7.0 fullbacks for a side without their no.1 keeper

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

          5 assists in a row prior to this weekend

          1. XABI 15
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            nope I agree with you, just wondering whether to keep him or Robbo. I see higher upside with Trent but Robbo seems the more secure pick..

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Robbo instead of Trent

      1. XABI 15
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        thanks thought so

    3. Pumpkinhead - I'm ITK …
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Lose Robbo . I have both and Robbo is history

  4. Killitzer
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    afternoon all

    Which move would be better with this team and 2FT

    Pope Button
    VVD Robertson Kelly Landstrum KWP
    Salah Sterling Perez Fraser Dendon
    King Kane Greenwood

    1. Robertson + Fraser + Greenwood--> £4.5m defender + Martial + Pukki (-4)
    2. Robertson + Fraser --> KDB + £4.5m defender

    Cheers for any input...

    1. XABI 15
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      2 definitely

    2. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Ive just done Robbo + Bilva to KDB + Lund with my 2FT, but I like 1. of these two options. But KDB will be gold this season imo.

    3. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Perez has to go. He was terrible the weekend. He's going to fall in price before the weeks out also.

  5. cjk17
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    What are people's opinions on how many points you can take in a hit before you should just wildcard? A -12? -16?!

    1. XABI 15
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      -12 start considering a WC. If I am doing a -8 I generally have a 2-3 week view on the moves so i see them as "lesser" hits

    2. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah about -12

    3. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Never did I take a -12 so I would say -8. But it's your own game -12 could work out but i wouldn't do it.

    4. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Yes I think if there’s at least 4 necessary transfers to be made it’s time to consider the WC.

    5. SADIO SANÉ
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      -16

    6. TheNecromancer
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Depends on where you stand in the league(s) you care about.
      I am taking a -8 (goodgod) this week for the first time ever.
      Only considered doing this b/c I have a solid lead over the pack in my ML and think the changes I am making will more than pay off over the next many weeks (barring injury).
      I prefer to keep my WC until there is a compelling reason for wholesale changes due to injury, suspension, DGW, international play, etc.
      Cheers,
      -Nec

      1. socho
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        I'm in a similar position..what are yout changes? I am shipping Digne as I cant afford the injury risk and I doubt Everton keeps that many clean sheets in next few weeks..

        1. Rasping Drive
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Crazy to ship Digne unless he’s definitely out for 3 weeks +

    7. Do I Not Like Orange
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      12 for me. I could've got by this GW with a -4, but would've been taking hits for the next 2-3 weeks to get rid of my deadweight, so just hit the button.

    8. Modest Bob
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      -28 for me

    9. scubasmithy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      -8 is as far as I'd take hits other than for a blank/double gameweek. any more is a wildcard IMO

  6. Pickle juice
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    On a WC......whats a better combo :

    (A) cellabos and Kane
    (B) Son and jota
    (C) Son and pukki

    Cheers

    1. Phil's Stamps
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C

    2. sunzip14
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C due to Arsenal fixtures but A looks tempting too. Definitely not B

    3. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Agree C

    4. Pickle juice
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Cheers guys ....pretty emphatic winner

    5. OFord
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Assuming you don't already have KDB then C

    6. cjk17
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'd go A. Kane over Son. And Pukki has Chelsea and City in next 3 games...

  7. ishmailc
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Hello everyone, think im going for this for GW3

    Any thoughts. Not so sure with Mina and Adrian.

    Adrian (Button)
    Mina, Walker, Montoya, Lundstrem (kelly)
    KDB, Sterling, Mane, Martial (Dendocker)
    Kane, Pukki (Greenwood)

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

      looks fine

    2. Shineonme
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Very nice team

    3. Dr. Rog
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      not a fan of the 3.5 premium teams

  8. Budgies
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    here's my current team:

    Pope
    Digne, V Dijk, Zinchenko, AWB
    Martial, Cantwell, Salah, Sterling, KDB
    Pukki

    (Heaton, Rico, King, Greenwood)

    Would you suggest any tweaks on formation for this game week? Wc not played and team value £100.5m

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

      king sub 1

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Looks good.. missing a bit of Spurs.

  9. Millie7
    • 10 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Is Zinchenko a player people are looking to get in long term or do you think his place is up for grabs?

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

      should be alright till international break imo

    2. Laserface
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      He’ll start 20ish games.

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

        minimum

    3. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      He hasn't looked great so far - I'm more worried now than I was start of the season.

    4. Millie7
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Thanks Guys, I'm downgrading VVD to use the money elsewhere, but still think he is the best choice

  10. sunzip14
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Best option among these three :

    A) Lanzini
    B) Mount
    C) Trossard

    1. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Very tough. Mount and Torssard slightly cheaper might edge me that way, if nailed I’d say Mount but could see big rotation.

    2. FOMFF
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I'm going Lanzini. Fancy West Ham to quietly churn out some results next few weeks.

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

    Get Mount or Trossard?

    1. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Trossard

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

      Mount for the fixtures and baps.

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Mount just cause Trossard has mci in GW4 and may be rested.

    4. Athletic Nasherbo
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Have both on wildcard

  12. Jared Dunn
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Hi All,

    A) Auba -> Kane (Then captain him instead of Salah)
    B) Wilson -> Pukki (Salah Captain)

    Thanks

    1. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      B

    2. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      A for this week I’d say

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

      bbb

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

      Ha. Great username.

      I don't like either transfer. PEA will get the random hauls and rotates well with Kane as a captain option. And Pukki has some tough fixtures ahead.

  13. Pukki Party
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Pope
    Trent Robbo Digne KWP
    Salah Sterling KDB Perez
    Jota King

    Button Dendo Rico Greenwood
    2ft 0itb

    Thoughts? Thinking...
    A) Perez to Tielemans
    B) Perez, KWP to Maddison, Montoya
    C)King/Jota to Pukki and downgrade either Perez/KWP

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

      ur called pukki party and dont have pukki? must rectify this

      1. Bobby Digital
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        This

      2. Carlton_Goal
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Pukki party seems to be one of few people around here who don't own Pukki

      3. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Correct, have a rule of 0 new to the league players gw1. As a finn i have a 20€ bet on him to win the golden boot though

        1. Baps hunter
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          You missed The party, just didn't watch him play vs Pool and transfer him in for his hattie. At least get him now or change your name 😉

    2. Bobby Digital
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C) Jota and Perez

      1. Pukki Party
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers, have to take a look at below 6.5mids

    3. Pukki Blinders
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      The Pukki party doesn't have Pukki? Something's not right here...

    4. Carlton_Goal
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      C and get Trossard/Mount

    5. Bartowski
      • 13 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Not going to this party now. Clearly lied on the invite.

  14. FOO FIGHTER
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    Proposed team not on WC

    Pope
    TAA VVD Pereira Dunk Lundstram
    Salah Sterling KDB McGinn Trossard
    Pukki Jota Greenwood

    -8 hit with Vardy and Perez out.

    Thoughts?

    1. FOO FIGHTER
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Oh and Button

    2. Pukki Party
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Leicester had two tough fixtures now they have two good ones, wrong time to sell both. Keep Vardy

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Vardy an Perez both could drop in price making it more difficult to get in KDB and probably making 3 moves instead of two.

        1. Pukki Party
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Your call, i'm playing for points not for team value.

          1. FOO FIGHTER
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            KDB could very well score more points than Perez and Vardy combined again. Not expecting a hattrick from Vardy, SHU have looked solid and are tough to beat at home.

    3. Laserface
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      What are the 4 transfers ?

      1. FOO FIGHTER
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        There are only two, Vardy and Perez.

    4. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Looks handy. I never like playing with a weak forward line but to get that midfield you haven’t much choice.

    5. scubasmithy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      If selling Vardy and Perez gets you KDB then absolutely.

  15. Zenith UK
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    New WC team, thoughts please - note: leaves 3M ITB.

    Pickford
    Digne, Laporte, AWB, Lundstram
    Sterling, Martial, NDombele, KDB
    Rashford, Pukki

    McGovern, Pieters, Ceballos, Wickham

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

      pieters not nailed, prefer soyboy

      upgrade ndombele

    Desperate to get Kane and Pukki in, but not sure these transfers are worth it for -4??

    Auba + King + VVD > Kane + Pukki + Zinchenko

    What do you guys think?

    1. Bucket Man
      • 5 Years

      Never sure defenders out are worth a hit. That does look Ok they as hits go.

    2. Jafalad
      • 14 Years

      Kane doesn’t interest me at present even with his fixtures. I’d rather have Son to cover TOT.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Couldn't agree more Jafa

        1. Shineonme
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Not sure son starts this weekend tbo. I think he's on the bench and comes on second half. Could be wrong but that's what I feEl.

          1. Salah’s Sonnet
            • 12 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            No idea why Son would be benched, he’ll be chomping at the bit to be unleashed

      2. Millie7
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Is there any guarantee Son will even play?

        1. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Poch once played him 48 hours after a flight back from the Asian cup

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Wasn't that when he had no other players to choose from though?
            Thought Kane, Lamela, and Moura were all injured at that time, and Llorente was playing up front?

            1. Miguel Sanchez
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Yeah there was that...

        2. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          why wouldn't he? Spurs lacking an edge, Son will be thrown right into the mix

          1. HamezMace
            • 9 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Lamela and Moura have both performed well in the opening games, don't think it's as clear cut as we thought in preseason.

            1. Salah’s Sonnet
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Son will always be first choice, light years ahead of lamela and moura

    To get funds for Martial would you transfer out Wilson or VVD?

    1. Bucket Man

      Wilson. Unless you have double Pool defence and downgrade isn’t too bad.

    2. HamezMace

      Wilson

    B) Wait
    C) Save

    1. Bad Kompany

      A. Montoya is good cover

    2. bitm2007

      A, Montoya would already be in my starting 11 if I had that team.

      1. Bucket Man
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Thanks guys. Would you do it tonight, goes against my thoughts but with a FT seems OK. Only reason Montoya not in is due to Adams against him not that he has set the world alight yet. Happy to keep him for a while yet with low ownership though maybe then get 5 man mid.

    1. Salah’s Sonnet

      i wish i had your confidence in him

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        0 shots at City is shocking, always flatters to deceive and plays far too deep for my liking, much prefer Son

        1. Dynamic Duos
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          City are phenomenal though , so don't read to much into that , I do like Son, But Kane will always be the main man at Spurs and he will really punish the lesser teams I.e Newcastle

          1. Dynamic Duos
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            But it was a though choice for me between Perez to Son and Wilson to Kane.

            1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
              • 7 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Yeah I'm looking at the same choice, not easy.

            2. Salah’s Sonnet
              • 12 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Yeah a tough choice, just preference at the end of the day

    3. HamezMace
      • 9 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      I agree.
      Defensively Newcastle as are bad as they come in the PL so far this season.
      Last seasons rule of captaining whoever is playing Huddersfield, now applies to Newcastle.

      1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Admittedly haven't watched them yet, but what makes you say this? Stats-wise they don't look as bad as I would have expected defensively, and it's not like they had easy defensive fixtures.

        1. HamezMace
          • 9 Years
          4 years, 7 months ago

          Yeah it's from watching them
          Newcastle shouldn't be conceding three goals to Norwich.

          Pukkis second goal, he had more time in the box to get his shot away than he would have had in the Championship last season.
          ..and his third goal, honestly school boy defending, they looked completely out of position, not committed to putting their bodies on the line, and just basically not interested.

          That's just an eye test review, I'm not that into stats based defensive numbers.

          1. Dr. Mantis Toboggan
            • 7 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Fair enough, appreciate the insight.

          2. Hairy Potter
            • 8 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            I'm hoping Newcastle will set up more like they did against Arsenal where they limited Arsenal to a couple of chances. I'd imagine Kraft is dropped after his poor debut and Longstaff comes back into midfield instead of Ki which hopefully means that there'll be more urgency.

            Having said all that, I expect Spurs to win.

            1. have you seen cyan
              • 4 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              Is Newcastle Spurs bogey team?

              1. Hairy Potter
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                Not especially

            2. HamezMace
              • 9 Years
              4 years, 7 months ago

              I mean even against Norwich they were deep, that's one of the reasons they struggled, they couldn't get out of their own half as they just lumped it forward to Joelinton, who had no support and was easily disposed.
              If Spurs can score early, it'll be 4 or more.

              1. Hairy Potter
                • 8 Years
                4 years, 7 months ago

                True. One of Rafa's strengths was setting us up to avoid hidings by the big teams and sticking to the plan.

                1. HamezMace
                  • 9 Years
                  4 years, 7 months ago

                  It was.
                  Despite the preconceptions that Bruce is a more defensive minded manager, he's really not the best at setting a team up to defend well.

  29. Jullepuu
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 7 months ago

    If you were to WC now, which 4.5 keeper would you pick and why?

    1. Dynamic Duos
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 7 months ago

      Pope

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

      Pope. Burnley has a great track record for clean sheets (usually about 10 per season), save points, and Pope will get bonus points because the defenders are so poor at passing.

      1. Jullepuu
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 7 months ago

        Cheers! What do you think about going with adrian for the next three weeks or ryan for the couple "easy" games (not city) and then switching to pope as the fixtures turn?

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

          Adrian looks volatile. Ryan and BHA are going under the radar with the lowest xGA after two matches (granted their opposition looked deplorable). Could be a good pick.

          I do not advise using FT on a GK. Pick one and stick to them unless an injury occurs.

          1. Jullepuu
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 7 months ago

            Yeah I think the same. I just have a feeling that pool cleansheets are just around the corner but it probably isn't worth the usage of a free transfer that can't be avoided.

            So Pope or Ryan it is. This is going to do my head in. Burnely has the history behind them but brighton has looked good aswell and you can get Button as the backup.

            I think I might just look at my mini leagues and pick the one that is more threatning for my ranking.
