FPL TV Guide: Your schedule for the best video content ahead of Gameweek 9

Fixtures good and think Everton will be back on track with all the best players back

If I didn't have DCL and Hamez already then I'd be on Rich, don't want the triple/sideways transfers though.

I would consider James if I had the £

I’m looking at a replacement for Zaha from GW 12 onwards but looks like their fixtures change again and already have DCL.

I never got rid of James!

I've still got James and DCL and looking forward to the next few weeks. Hoping that having Richarlison back and the good fixtures will give them back some swagger.

Looks good, Cavani pick interesting if he gets in the flow

If I thought he'd get any significant game time I'd think it was a good differential shout but I can't see Ole giving him more than 5-10 minutes, think for a free hit you could make that money in a more useful manner for your team

I think you would be better off with Richarlison instead of Cavani
No point in having 8 attackers on a FH

Def a bit weak. Not sure on cavani

Interesting week to FH - can see the logic with so many injuries around.

Definitely downgrade 1 attacker as you can't playall 8. I'd put another Everton in there on a free hit; maybe Digne or DCl/Rich over Cavani - maybe even both. Personally I'd have Son over KDB this week - I think Mou will play it really tight, but Son as likely as anyone to nick something. Che DEF also worth a go if you can.

Coady has had to self isolate after being in contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19 but he returned two negative tests himself. By the time of the Wolves game he will be in contention to play. Rashford missed out on international duty due to an injury picked up in the last game but sounds like another ‘international injury’ so I’d think he’d also be fine.

5...

Salah and Chilwell. Hoping Chilwell will be fine and although it’s highly unlikely Salah will be ready to play this weekend, I’ll be benching and expecting him to be back for the next GW.

Salah, robbo

Chilwell, sterling, brewster, salah,mitchell

1 A

1A

1a

Cheers, 1A it is.

Semedo -> Cancelo GW10

Unless you have Kilman I'd sell.

Keeping Kilman, will mainly be on the bench but will bring him in to the starting XI if needed.

Also have Saiss but will move him on for a City DEF next week.

Holding Semado for now, it would be nice to to move him for Cancelo but I also have double spurs so that’ll probably be the priority and I’m not sure Semado to a city def is worth a hit ?

I like it, couldn't go without Mo personally (to the extent that I'll accept benching him this week).

I like it. Very similar to mine below, just different £4.5ish defenders. For Salah i'm thinking along the lines of DCL & Bruno to £6m striker & Salah in a couple of weeks but that could easily change.

Martinez
Chilwell, Cancelo, Coufal, Justin, Lamptey
Ziyech, KDB, Grealish, Bruno, Soucek
DCL, Watkins, Vardy

Nice. Think no salah is worth the risk

Would you play kdb this week? If not maybe jrod first, then reassess and do a transfer to kdb next

Lovely team

I'm tempted tbh, can see Bruno and Utd disappointing

same here and pretty confident about it

Good choice for a differential this week, looking at DCL, Grealish or Vardy if I get the chance to bring him in.

Are they though? I mean ok yes they are but they didn't exactly roll over in their last game against West Ham, and Everton on a run of 3 defeats aren't in the best form themselves.

Ditch saiss

Saiss has to go

Chilwell, Cancelo, Castagne (if fit)

Chilwell, Robertson, TAA (when fit)

Can't go wrong with def's beginning with C atm.

B if you don't have any other pressing issues

I'd keep Son if I have Werner

B

Thx folks, current plan is Hamez

That tells me the plandemic is a joke. It seems it only applies to plebs.

Supposedly Chilwell's was a back spasm and it is thought it was only brought on due to travelling. Could still rule him out of the weekend though (especially since if travelling was the issue he's still going to have to travel back to Chelsea). No idea on Robbo

Probs both be fine.

I'm keeping Salah, sold TAA.

Keeping Salah till Thursday at least...

Keeping Salah until further update, got rid of Roberston

keeping both unless salah is out for 2 games then most likely salah>KDB

Keep Salah, ditched TAA before last GW and would do the same with Robbo if you can.

sold salah for bruno (c)
2FT Robbo to Chilwell tempted me before this week but both a doubt this weekend, probably keeping Robbo

Both gone

Watkins

watkins for me

Of the 3 I’d say Antonio is the most risky, injury prone, could break down again - id go for one of the other 2 and personally have brought in bamford for Jimmy this week

Watkins

Thanks all, what are you seeing with Watkins vs Bamford, stat wise last 4 GW Bamford xg is double that of Watkins

Watkins

Watkins. Villa have some nice fixtures

Suarez

Probably Werner before he took over pens

Werner

I havent seen much love at all for DCL(C) which for me is a bit strange

Nice name and grav. One of my favourite BOC tracks

Werner!

DCL last season vs Norwich

Pukes*

This is my current team FWIW. 1FT.

McCarthy
Chilwell*, Saiss*, Cresswell
Salah*, Son, Ziyech, Rodríguez, Grealish
Kane, DCL
(Nyland, Mitchell*, Justin, Davis)

Hmm? 🙂

Kane should be vardy or werner

I'm ok with salah being less owned to be fair, back against brighton and bagging a 15 point haul and be scramble to get him back

Why, if his flag is removed after Leicester the transfer traffic will almost certainly reverse. Could even see a price rise back up to 12.3/12.4 by the Brighton match.

Really doesn't matter. If you are deciding to keep him it's because you've hedged your bets that it'll be one game (probably correctly) and his price adjustments are not important for you in that decision making process

Sometimes I feel like there are a few members who get a bit unnerved by patience and willingness to not be panicked, so they, you know, try to stir a bit of that up....

If we get news that he’ll be back after Leicester then I don’t see a problem. If he’s out for Brighton then he’s a quite an easy sell.

Oh for sure he will

A

B probably. Newcastle are a very strange team. And it’s tough to know what Villa we’ll get either

C

A in my opinion. While I haven't been his biggest fan this season, I think Newcastle have been even worse than WBA and Fulham in the recent gameweeks.

very very close between A and B but Werner feels more explosive given that Bruno is at home

B

A is my cap, C my VC

B

Saiss

Neither...........hold until next GW as Saiss will probably start

Robertson as I think Saiss will play this weekend with Coady likely to be out

Wait until last minute as both might play

Saiss, not sure why people think Cody will be out. From what I’ve read he’ll be in contention to play the next game.

Tbh I’d look to ship both of them anyway

Saiss to chillwell or cancela

Start again

I don’t like the mahrez pick, maybe go for jrod?

Don't like rotating keepers

Few benching headaches there, could downgrade adams to brewster and PVA/justin to fodder and upgrade mahrez to kdb. prefer antonio or watkins if fit over adams too, but each to their own.

Yeah it’s pretty bad, you only need one GK, preferably Martinez and then look to get a Saints DEF to rotate with your other defenders. Tight call between Dias and Cancelo but both will be good options. Jota could be good but not sold on him myself. Mahrez and Havertz need to go, KDB/Sterling from city and Werner/Ziyech from chelsea. Wouldn’t have Adams with so many other options up top.

No werner . No KDB. No go

Digne is waste of money !
Take money out and invest in attack

With Cancelo Chilwell Kilman & Coufal you do not need expensive Digne. Get a cheapie for him and upgrade elsewhere. You might need the cash for a City attacker.

Looks great but agree with the above re Digne, wouldn’t be bad to keep some cash back also so don’t feel you need to invest every penny into the team.

Confused! You mean the profit you’ve made on the player?

Has always been this way, need to be careful selling players on a WC you have accumulated value in that you may want to bring back in within the WC.

He's now 4.8m. You bought him at 4.5m, so his price is now 4.6m for you.

It all makes sense. If you sold him that's when you'd have a problem and wouldn't be able to buy him back.

He is 4.8 at the moment so your selling price is 4.6 and that is also the cost as long as he is in your team (until his price changes).

As all the peeps above have mentioned Justin's current price is 4.8, the fact that you bought him for 4.5 is irrelevant because the selling price of 4.6 already takes that into account. So if you remove Justin from your team, even when tinkering, you get 4.6 from him so it makes sense that if you put him back in he's also 4.6. Otherwise, you'd be removing a player for 4.6 and getting him back for 4.5 which is arbitrage (free money) and breaks the system.

If you sold Salah, would you want him back as soon as he is fit?

yes

I did 2 days ago

Nice, I like it. Not sure on Martial though.

Be more tempted to get Watkins or DCL instead of Martial

Coudmfal! .. .think PVA is a good option this week, Burnley haven't scored in their last 4 matches

Triple united and (C), risky but could pay off well. Hopefully united turn up

it would make transfers in and out too easy. with this method you have to assess whether its worth a transfer if you'll lose money and then want that same player back in a week or two.

also helps to stop people having exactly the same team as a consequence of people having money tied up in players and being nervous to lose that money

It's good for the game ... I'm not happy that all my players with increases have gone up an odd number
It also means that you can absorb price drops without affecting SV

Team value would be too high for everyone and would make the game a lot easier , I quite like it the way it is.

Blackbox and Mark will be on tomorrow.
