Fantasy focus switches to Jiménez as Brighton host Wolves

The Fantasy Premier League focus switches to Raúl Jiménez (£7.6m) in Sunday’s final match.

The Wolves forward was the most-sold player for Gameweek 16, losing 220,000+ owners ahead of today’s trip to Brighton.

That was despite recording seven attacking returns in his last eight Premier League outings.

Naturally, he starts once again for Nuno Espirito Santo’s men, flanked in the 3-4-3 system by Diogo Jota (£6.1m) and Adama Traoré (£5.2m).

Meanwhile, Aaron Connolly (£4.7m) is absent for Brighton today, having picked up a knock midweek.

“He just had a knock, a bit like a dead leg. He’s had a few games as well this game just came around too quickly for him.” – Graham Potter

Leandro Trossard (£5.8m) comes into the side, while Aaron Mooy (£4.8m) and Pascal Groß (£6.4m) are also in the starting line-up.

Brighton XI: Ryan; Burn, Webster, Dunk, Alzate; Pröpper, D Stephens; Trossard, Mooy, Groß; Maupay.

Wolves XI: Patrício; Saïss, Coady, Dendoncker; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Doherty; D Jota, Jiménez, Traoré.

    I did Tomori -> Fernandez.
    That'll show all you showboaters in the top 900k.

      Lol!

    2. Fantasy Gold
      • 9 Years

      Good move.

    3. Rainer
      • 7 Years

      Might get him for GW18, looks the part.

      Guaita, Kelly & Fernandez would be quite nervy though.

      Ahh nice RC

  2. Andy Mac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Keeping it simple...

    A) Vardy - Abraham - Jiminez
    B) Vardy - Rashford - Ings

    1. RAMZES666
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Vardy Abraham Ings, then Ings to Jota after GW19

      1. RAMZES666
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Simple reason that Rashford face non of the top 6 sides in next 4

    2. Andy Mac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Thanks but I would prefer Rash to Ings!

      1. Debauchy
        • 11 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Sure but what does the extra cash get you

        1. Andy Mac
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          It’s a cost of 0.4 to go B....

    3. Cojones of Destiny
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      VAR?

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        That’s the ideal but would have to lose TAA or KdB??

        1. Cojones of Destiny
          • 6 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          trent

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

      A

    5. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Vardy Abraham Ings

      Ings is better than Jimenez.

  3. RAMZES666
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Wow...was set on transferring in 5th mid Grealish (6.0m) and then Shelvey (5.0m) pops up with another goal!
    Both on identical PPM of 4.7. Shelvey worth a punt?

    1. FPL.team
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No.

    2. Gaddafi
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      yes

    3. fgdu
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      id do it except on the principle that its shelvey and he looks like voldemort

    Who the fook is Chris? Which 10 year old is running this account?

    1. tucaoneo
      • 5 Years

      He is one of the Jota cappers in a previous tweet.

    2. Brosstan
      • 9 Years

      Thats laughably unprofessional. Should be sacked.

    Can’t really justify selling Maddison after Norwich but...

    Maddison (mci, LIV)
    Grealish (SOU, NOR)

    1. BNMC
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Maddison is still good. I had Tielemans, already moved him to Grealish.

    2. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      City is easy.

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

      Maddy + FT.

      Is there another way?

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

    Didn't even realize Son overtook Sterling this week in total points.

    1. Ze_Austin
      • 5 Years

      *MaddiSon

    2. Regin
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Probably shelvey overtook sterling by now

  8. g40steve
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Is Rashford, Party, Tammy the optimal front line at present?

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Rash, Party, Ings have been carrying me for weeks

    2. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Rashford is tempting.
      I'm losing all the patience in Jimenez

      1. RAMZES666
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Jota's turn to explode. Very much a form player

    3. Pompel
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      At present yrs but going forwards, who knows..

  9. The Ejiptian King
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I think Doherty is my favourite FPL player, he's not the best pick but he's so much fun.

    1. svasei - Up (?) the Rovers
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ban

    2. Andy Mac
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Oh yes!!

    3. Rainer
      • 7 Years

      Miss him.

      4.4m - how good we had it.

    4. Debauchy

      Yeah agree

    5. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Last year's Lundstram

    6. Amey

      Miss having him in my team

    7. Regin

    • 5 Years

    What do you think about this? 2FT
    KDB + Connoly -> Zaha/Grealish + Tammy.

    Schmeichel Pope
    Pereira TAA Lundstram Aurier Rico
    KDB Mane Son Pulisic Cantwell
    Vardy Ings Connoly

    Cheers!

    1. Debauchy
      • 11 Years

      MCity play Arsenal next. You have to hold for that surely ?

  11. Team Cruel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Who is fastest over 100m

    A) Burn
    B) Traore

    1. Amey
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Traore is a Tank 😀

    2. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Is Traore allowed us his legs?

  12. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Hope Jimmi doesn't lay off a simple goal scoring opportunity for Jota to score his hatti.

  13. Andy Mac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I’m sure it’s been asked already, but what’s the deal with Tomori?? Is he 2nd fiddle to Christensen now or will he be back after that Everton loss?? Any thoughts appreciated guys before I ship him for Kelly!

    1. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Ship and be done

    2. Digital-Real
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      he should be back next game. Zouma and Christensen were dreadful yesterday.

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        That’s what I’m thinking? Frank would be mad to stick with those two!

        1. Digital-Real
          • 7 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          i'd be shocked if he's not back next game.

    3. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights

      Get rid. Might clean sheet vs Bournemouth though. See who plays midweek.

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Exactly! Need those 6 points!

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

      Out for a GW19 starter!

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Kelly?

    5. Babelcopter
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Just sold Tomori for Aurier

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Got Aurier already! So a good move mate!

  14. Hect.OR 98th
    • 14 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Stuck at around 200k and not moving. Roll the dice with a -8 this week?

    Jiménez, TAA, Mount
    to
    Rashford, Kelly, Son

    Can’t afford it after tonight’s rise for Son.

    1. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      There's always a way to afford a move , wait

    2. RAMZES666
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Don't get rid of TAA before WAT home dude.

    3. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No way

  15. BNMC
    • 4 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    It's fun being in an ML full of casuals, but at the same time being in a race for top spot with someone that actually knows how to play the game.

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Is that you Magnus Carlsen?

      1. BNMC
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I wish

      2. BNMC
        • 4 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        I mean top spot within that ML, I'm a far cry from actual top spot in OR. Down in 600-800k territory.

    2. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I have passed on your details to Epic Fail, you will be most welcome

  16. El_Gigante
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Best defender for 4.4 or lower?

    Current defence:
    Guaita / Button
    TAA / Lundstram / Soy / Mings / ?

    1. Sandy Ravage
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Kelly

  17. Bilbao Baggins
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Poor Joe and David no luck getting out high scorers. Jota I can understand that's bad luck. Kane .. if you trust him enough to get him in you give him a chance I think. One game does not maketh a man. Joe is so good for preaching patience as well haha that's the game though isn't it

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Jota facing the leakiest defence for shots lately, then a home game, then Norwich.

      Wouldn’t mark that down as bad luck.

      1. Bilbao Baggins
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah but Jota had 1 goal 1 assist in 15 previous week's ha. He's been awful fantasy wise.

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      In Brighton's defense, they have just had United, Leicester, Liverpool and Arsenal..

      Wolves haven't had many shots on target at all today. Just been efficient.

  18. Digital-Real
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Feel there's a goal for Jimmi in this game, he just hasn't had a decent chance fall at his feet yet.

  19. Regin
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Y can't dunk score against easier teams?

  20. Atimis
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Keep Jimi till GW18 or do Jim to Rashford?

    1. GOTHAM City F.C.
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Did

    2. Pep's Money Laundry
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I did Jimi to rashford last night as I would have been priced out

  21. Louis Van Gaalstones
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    What's the consensus on Pulisic? Keep/buy/sell?

    1. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Watch Lille 1st.

    2. The Ejiptian King
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Depends if you think he'll start.

    3. fgdu
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      its a sell

    4. Debauchy
      • 11 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Have to keep and hope he starts. No Ake for Bournemouth expect a rout

    5. It’s gonna Ben Mee
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Keeping for now

    6. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Could be a cricket score vs. Bournemouth

  22. Bagayokeso
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Mount & Jimenez > dendoncker & kane -4?

    1. tucaoneo
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No

      1. Bagayokeso
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Why?

        Can go jiminez > rashford for free either

        1. tucaoneo
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Well if you don't have Son/Alli I would prioritize them before Kane. If you do I think Jimenez is still OK to keep. Mount > Grealish is a great move (unless you have him too).

    2. Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      No, two downgrades there IMO

  23. Sim Simma
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    I sold Tammy, Mount, Martial and they each scored in the very next game. I sold Doherty this week. Expect a goal

  24. Corgz Dark side of the Loon

      Are you talking about Cantwell ? Did he block your bench points 🙂

      1. Corgz Dark side of the Loon
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yes talking about Cantwell who I placed first on the bench ahead of 8pt Kelly to cover for Mane.....lost out all round

      1. BrutalLogiC
        • 8 Years
