Kane, Fernandes or De Bruyne: Which premium FPL asset to own for Gameweek 9

Happy International Break everyone. Are you feeling glad that it’s here, with the opportunity to rest and recuperate from all the madness? Or are you longing for more football to sink your teeth into?

I feel as though Gameweeks 9 and 10 are crucial weeks in all of our seasons. Looking at the Season Ticker, there’s some huge swings in terms of difficulty, Manchester City soaring to the top with, debatably, the three best home games imaginable from both an attacking and defensive perspective. 

Manchester United also emerge from a difficult run of games to host West Brom – before facing three out of four games away from home where they have, up until now at least, looked better than under the lights of Old Trafford.

Tottenham on the other hand sink to the bottom of the ticker, with Wolves also set to face three tough teams – and a local derby against in-form Villa to boot. 

How Man City’s key FPL assets fared ahead of Spurs’ fixture swing

            They are a bit fixture proof in attack tbf... Would really like him but also like Cancelo’s fixtures so may wait and if he starts to get rotated with Mendy will probably do the switch. Cheers pal!

      he plays a couple of times over IB, he could pick up an injury or come off the bench first game because it's Lampard

        I think he's got to be essential for Chelsea right now as no one plays the right side anywhere near as well for them. BUT international break injury, tiredness could change that.

    Do you worry about value you've built up in a player, if you need to backtrack?

    For instance I'm thinking of ditching Son but will cost me 0.3 extra to buy him back, and as all my rivals have him I may want to if he hits form despite fixtures.

      The game is about points not team value. Jump on players you think will score the most points. Don’t worry about how much value you lose by shipping someone out for someone else who will score more.

        Yep, that's the tension. I do think the player coming in will score more, but I know I could be wrong about it and need to get back on the previous train.

        Switching from Spurs to players about now is an example of this. It seems to make sense to do it but they might continue to return and getting back together them could be an issue.

                Burnley back to full strength defensively. I do not think it's worth a -8 at all. If your lucky it might even out tho

                    True actually... A -8 still risky though as the players he sell / don't play could haul as well

    Despite him somewhat passing the eye test in the WB position, Chilwell was a far better pick!

      Depends how you think Fernandes will do v WBA.

      I am considering him in for Son for a hit too but then realise I may want KDB right away after so not sure its worth it for 1 game or so. WBA will sit deep and may nake it tough for United to break them down.

                  As written below Liverpool Echo thinks he is out untill at least december 9. FPL towers usually don't put red flag on players untill it is confirmed that a player will miss a match. Guess we will get more information closer to deadline. He might drop 0.2 by then though
