Why I am Wildcarding for FPL Gameweek 9 and the key players I am signing

Not to sound snotty, but can the Scoutcast team at least consider filling the void by bringing in other members in their absence to pep the empty weeks up? I'm sure there are loads here who'd give it a decent go.

On a WC guys.

A. KDB, Bowen, Vardy & Brewster (bench).
B. Grealish, Kane, Werner & Elnenny (bench)

GW9 Kane-DCL. Brewster-Watkins -4
GW10 Son-KDB.Zouma-Cancelo -4
GW11 Roll Transfer
GW12 DCL-Bamford Hamez-?
Don't like taking hits but it's the only way to while taking advantage of fixtures at the same time?

Repost from previous article

1FT 1.6m ITB WC available

McCarthy (Button)
Chilwell Zouma Taylor (Justin Mitchell)
Salah Son Sterling ASM (Bissouma)
Werner DCL Watkins

Go Spursless with Son to Bruno (C)? ASM is the biggest issue with the above IMO, but no mid up to 6.9m really interests me (Jota? Bowen?)

Would you take a hit Saiss to Cancelo to secure some bench with Mitchell and Brewster?
Chilwell Zouma Lamptey other defenders

A or B ? Please

A) Martial, KDB and James
B) Jesus, Bruno and Cancelo

Thanks all in advance

I sometimes get these mental blocks and I'm just asking for help to point out my stupidity or give me a new look on my team.

Martinez
Robertson - Semedo - Lamptey
Salah - Son - Rodriguez - Zaha - Grealish
Kane - DCL
(Peacock-Farrell) (Dallas, Brewster, Mitchell)

2 FT 0.1 ITB

I want to move Kane out, a long with a midfielder for De Bruyne/Fernandes and I want Semedo to Chilwell at some point as well.
Feels weird to get any midfielders other than Son this week because they all have great fixtures, however, I kinda like Son still despite the fixtures which puts me in a predicament.

The choice of midfielder I move out will also effect the striker I replace Kane with. Could go with options being between Werner/Martial/Watkins or Wilson if fit after IB. The other factor is that to upgrade Semedo I will also need a bit in the bank for that move as well. However, Semedo to Chilwell might just be a distraction and should worry about that separately once that move becomes easier to make.

Will Bruno’s price go up tonight?

Would you get rid of Justin on WC? Would like to keep him but is he too much of a risk since guys are getting back from injuries soon?

Martinez Forster
Semedo James Zouma Lamptey Mitchell
Salah Son Foden Rashford Grealish
Kane DCL Brewster

GW9 Kane & Foden to Antonio/Watkins & Bruno (C)
GW10 Son & Semedo to KDB & Coufal

Leaves me with a front 8 of

Salah KDB Bruno Rashford Grealish
Antonio/Watkins DCL Brewster

Thoughts lads?

McCarthy
Chilwell - Justin - Lamptey
Salah - Bruno - Grealish - Zaha
Kane - Werner - DCL

Forster - Kilman - Mitchell - Stephens

SOS, bit stuck here...

McCarthy (Nyland)
TAA Zouma Justin (Kilman, KWP)
Fernandes JRod Grealish Son (ASM)
Werner Ings*** DCL

1FT, 0.5ITB

a) Ings > Bamford
b) Ings > Adams
c) Ings + ASM > Brewster + Ziyech (-4); KDB in for Son Next
d) Ings + ASM + TAA > Brewster + Ziyech + Cancelo (-8)
e) WC to this:

McCarthy (Nyland)
Cancelo Chilwell Lamptey (Kilman, KWP)
Fernandes JRod Grealish Ziyech KDB
Werner DCL (Brewster)

Would you do this tonight before price rises?

TAA, Foden, Son —> Cancelo, Ziyech, Bruno

Cheers!

Thoughts on Robbo & Son to Cresswell & KDB with 2 FTs?

Then potentially Dallas to Cancelo next GW...

Martinez,
Robbo, Chilwell, KWP,
Salah, Son, Ziyech, Zaha, Grealish,
Kane, DCL.

Forster, Dallas, Brewster, 3.9.

Thanks

Another crazy stat to highlight this odd season is that every player who has been the top player in a GW has then blanked in the following GW, despite a huge number of bandwagon net transfers in (~2.9m).

GW 1: Salah
GW 2: Son
GW 3: Vardy
GW 4: Grealish
GW 5: Werner
GW 6: Bamford
GW 7: Ward-Prowse
GW 8: Fernandes

So if history is any indication, are people still so keen on captaining Bruno? 😀

Bench:
A) Lamptey
B) Kilman
C) Soucek

Grealish or Bruno?

KDB or Bruno?

What is the reason for the popularity of West Ham defenders? Is it just me who thinks their fixtures aren’t good for CS potential?

Sheffield United isn’t too bad (although their offensive stats have been improving in the recent weeks), but their next 3 after that is Villa, United and Leeds which aren’t easy to get CS against at all.

I think before Fulham it made more sense to bring one in, but personally can’t see the point of it now.

Trent > Cancelo?

Yay or nay?
Scared of Pep roulette

Martinez Steer
Chilwell Zouma Lamptey Saiss Mitchell
Salah Sterling Ziyech Grealish Podence
Kane DCL Brewster
No ft...Survive without a hit while staring at Saiss and Podence?

Best up to 7.9 attacker?
A) zaha
B) j.rodriguez
C) barkley
D) jota
E) Watkins
F) Adams
G) Antonio
H) soucek

Cancelo or James in for TAA? (Already have Chilwell)

Can I get away with saving FT to do a mini WC next week?

Martinez
Robbo Chilwell Konsa
Salah (C) Sterling Son Jrod
Dcl Maupay Bamford
Steer Anguissa Kilman Mitchell

1 FT 0.5 Itb

Which one to pick?
1. Cancelo - Stats and fixtures look great but some doubt about how nailed he is with Mendy due back and Pep roulette
2. Coufal - Looks steady at 4.5 with potential assists and bps. Use the saving funds on attack.

1.5itb 2ft
Martinez Peacock
Chilwell Taylor Justin Ayling TAA
Grealish Salah Son Rodriguez Bissouma
DCL Kane Vassilev

Got 2 freebies and a dilemma to sort, please help guys! Thanks.

A) Foden > Ziyech + Saiss > Coufal
B) Son > Bruno + Foden > Bissouma

Martinez (Steer)
Chilwell, Robbo, Lamptey (Saiss, Mitchell)
Podence, Salah, Son, Grealish (Foden)
Bamford, DCL, Kane..

How is this please?

Martinez
Chillwell Cancelo Coufal
Salah Bruno Ziyech Grealish
Vardy Jesus Watkins

Forster Lewis Neco Riedewald

Would you wildcard this lot?

Mendy
Bellerin KWP Saiss
Grealish Salah Sterling Son Lookman
Werner DCL

Button Brewster Dallas Mitchell

Or does a hit along the lines of Saiss to Target and Brewster to Watkins (and bench lookman) sort it out?

Cancelo or Dias?

Cancelo will likely be rotated but has better attacks by potential. Dias will likely miss some games as well.

Flash cap poll if no one gets injured.
A. Bruno
B. Salah
C. Other
