FPL Question Time – Consult our panel ahead of Gameweek 7

None yet but the fact he broke down after being out for a couple of games makes me think they will be more cautious this time around (especially given fixtures). Suspect it will be 2-3 weeks minimum now.

Gaolonso time.

Kun in my case but i do like Firmino

Auba

Greenwood and spend the funds in midfield

Salah has not blanked. Let's say if you capped him from GW1 that would be 100 points just from him.

Are you going to cap Firmino or Son every week?

I'd even put Vardy into the mix with the fixtures Leicester have.

I have Barnes right now alongside the two yup mentioned. Giving him 2 more games (avl, EVE) and then will look to shift to an emerging bandwagon.

I went with Haller on WC, but Firmino and Aguero are also great options albeit harder to fit in.

I have Pukki, Abraham, Haller but then have a fairly expensive mid and 2 premium defs (Ota and VVD)

I have Haller as my third spot. I think he will come good, he has good stats. But if I had more money I would have Firmino and nd if I hade insane amouts of money I would have Aguero.

I've got Pukki. Digne, Barnes and Haller just became Soy, Abraham and Wilson for -4. Happy with this now

King and Wood are both 6.3 and decent fixtures might ignite their seasons. (Note: I consider Man Utd at home as a decent fixture even though most fixtures lists consider it tough.)

Brought in Bobby for Kane last week and it feels like the best decision i've made this season long term. Great value

i just did in hope he outscores Barnes

Not worth a hit IMO. Tammy overachieving.

Not for a hit

Barnes is overrated, there is no reason or indication that he'll outscore his last few year averages significantly and Abraham has a great fixture. So yes. Worth it both in short term and long term.

Barnes is taking a lot of shots, but the quality isn't as good... And while Tammy is over-performing right now, his xG still says he is an incredible bargain...I think I'm about to do that same trade for -4

Nope

no.. hold on Haller

Not for me. Could bite you HARD

No for me. Haller > Tammy just?

Replied on previous page - could work but also quite risky - go with your gut!

I would do it.

I'd upgrade one of the defenders.

Very similar team to mine: Pope, Kelly, Montoya, Barnes vs Heaton, Soy, Rico, Haller

I think you are fine to save and will be in a strong position with 2FT next week

Not really. Unless you want to be a bit wild and do Barnes > Wilson or Kelly > Aurier.

Bring in Trent for VVD personally

Oh, ok, I haven't been hacked

"Your getting hacked in the morning"

Whom are you captaining next gameweek? Lol

Why don't you look at how nailed club captains tend to be for their teams. Here's a hint; Morgan is Leicester's club captain.

It's just a title it means noting other than connection to a club

He was fit but benched last gameweek. I think he still has a chance to return next gameweek given they lost to the goal shy Burnley.

I'm not a Norwich fan but the answer to your question is no. He was fourth choice CB last season in the Championship. He's been playing a bit this year because of injuries to others. Last week he was fit and only made the bench. I have him in my side as bench fodder but even if he plays what score is he going to get? If he had played every game this season he's scores would have been -2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1. So that's 4 points in six games. I'm planning to upgrade him to a 4.5 next week

He wasn't fully fit against City and Farke probably didn't want to change the winning team against Burnley, but Amadou is a midfielder not a defender so Hanley might be preferred over him.

Very similar thoughts below! Don’t do D. My current thoughts is B and bring in Vardy after the Liverpool game

B

seeing the rest of your squad would help just do B at this point

I'm considering something similar to C. Sterling +Barnes to Kun + maddison

A. But i would get Firmino over Vardy since you've got enough ITB

A is interesting minus Heaton. Save .5.

B is my exact WC team, however, I have Auba over Aguero. Where did you find that extra 1.2m for Aguero??

I’ve gone with a slight variation of A (Tomori instead of Otamendi as I didn’t have enough $)

Whereas my WC team is a variation on C, with Son instead of Mount and a cheaper defence (Aurier, Soy and rotating Lundstram/Rico/4.5).

I like it a lot. I'm on a WC too and have stuck with Salah & Sterling for now as I don't want to be too reactionary to recent results but I can't afford Son or Aguero because of it.

I'd consider Otamendi over Robertson and Soyuncu over Tomori, perhaps?

Very nice, if i was wc-ing i might get TAA and Robbo too. Only thing i would chance, but that doesn't make your options bad:
Dilva, Aguero, Mount > Sterling, Firmino, Traoré.
Just because i like to be a bit different on WC

Not keen myself - but Azpi is their best def pick for sure

I just shipped Digne to Azpi. Had the exact same thoughts as you. I hope they can start keeping CS and Azpi looks good both in terms of getting the odd attacking return and BPS.

Wait and see for me unless it’s Tomori

I’ve gone for Tomori, so cheap and bound to get some clean sheets.

Is Tomori a nailed starter though?

Lei are good defensively but they have to commit more men forward when playing against lesser teams, hence keeping less cleansheets in the process. Fixtures change from GW9 though so I expect their CS potential to improve.

Getting him after Liverpool for funds for Vardy

He seems to have been a bandwagon since gw2, but the bandwagon has no wheels

You get what you pay for and at 4.5 he is probably the cheapest way into a good side with good upcoming fixtures (Tomori might be another one, perhaps a West Ham defender as well). They haven't had easy games so far defensively (Spurs, Chelsea, Wolves, Man Utd, Bournemouth) and they have only conceded five goals so for 4.5 he is a good enabler with potential for clean sheets

OK. Thanks all

That's my defence. Looks great

Looks good

442?

That defence looks solid as a rock.

A thing of beauty, could have ayew maybe? Would be nervous if city rotation risk and Greenwood, might miss out on a few points due to that.

Play cantwell..

Not sure, but I have to say that it was almost orgasmic to remove Ceballos from my own team

You can do that on the FPL site, you don't need the members area for that.

No way that would be far too convenient and useful

Much better to have multiple sources for all the different information we need

The ginger Pele!

Is Aurier nailed?

No

Not madness, but could backfire. The one with Aguero is the better option imo.

Bendtner

D. Angel (Hot Fuzz)

Santa!

Martial is back though and Ole is under pressure, so while I expect a start soon, if he doesn't do well then he is out of the team straight away. Of course if he does well then he is getting extended stay.

It’s fine

Son looked like a man possessed v palace

Defences rocking up to spurs stadium genuinely can't deal

Son

I have Tammy so most scared of Son - also expect Son to disappoint less than Tammy longer term!

Currently have Digne and Cantwell btw with Greenwood

A

A

Great - that's what I thought

Liverpool

City

Liverpool

Needs one of Kun or Raheem

No

No. Makes Life easier.

*Auba

How do you feel about Bilva and Dilva?

no

Shut up Nopes
