    Thoughts on Ferran Torres ?

      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Risky, but looks good when he plays.

      Prob a transfer out waiting to happen though.

      1. Rinseboy

        Hi Tom, what are your thoughts on the Kane to Vardy move this week? being asked a lot including by me! Thanks

        1. avfc82

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Sorry mate, only just seen this.

          I'd be tempted by this move yeah, but it's risky losing Kane.

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Great player when playing.

    3. Rinseboy
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      too risky I think

    4. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      You know it’s a risk.

  3. Rinseboy
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kane to Vardy for a -4 and captain this week?
    Or captain Bruno or DCL?

    Martinez
    Robbo Chilwell Dias
    Son Grealish Jota Bruno Ziyech
    Kane DCL
    Brewster Mitchell Lamptey

    1. Pickle juice
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’m in the same boat and thinking of doing it for -4

    2. Pickle juice
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No Man City asset .

      1. Rinseboy
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Dias!

        Would require a -8 to get KDB or Sterling and Kane to Jesus/Aguero is too much of a gamble for my liking

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

      Captain Bruno gtg

    4. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I might do it for free but certainly not for a hit.

  4. n14mul
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Think I'm done, few hits taken but happy

    Mccarthy
    Chilwell Robbo Justin
    Salah Ziyech KDB Jota Hames
    DCL Bamford

    Thoughts?

    1. Pickle juice
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I wouldn’t be

      1. n14mul
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Care to expand

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

      Looks good to me. Obviously Vardy is the cause celebre at the moment but I think there's better long term picks. Concerns about Hames (he's distributing to the wings rather than the striker) and Jota is potentially a rotation risk although he looks too good to drop at the moment. Think people who hung on to Robbo have been smart - he's looking increasingly good up the wings

      1. n14mul
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Hames on the block after the Leeds game for grealish..

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

    Kane -> Vardy (C) and Semedo -> Dias done for a -4. Pleased with the moves, now for the toughie - Foden to Jota for another -4?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      No not for a hit.

    2. stu92
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Hold where you are, no need for another hit.

    3. fish&chips
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Hi flair, I'm tempted to do Semedo to Dias/ Cancelo for a hit as well but not sure it's worth the -4. What was your rationale?

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

        I know I'll be using my FTs on high impact moves with premium assets so I figured I'd get this inevitable transfer over with, very possible I'd just end up taking the hit later. Didn't want to already have a FT locked in for next GW when the likes of KDB and Salah are waiting.

        I'm sure Dias will be outstanding value over the long term and would be shocked to not get a CS this week while there's a decent chance Semedo doesn't get one so that -4 could be paid off this week anyways.

        1. fish&chips
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Cool thanks, pretty much along my lines of thinking. I'll mull it over today!

  6. stu92
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Jrod > KDB (-4)?

    Already have DCL, but no City coverage. Alternative would be to take a -4 for a City defender.

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Now that one looks tempting.

      1. stu92
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        You support the move to KDB?

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Yes, just about.

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

      I'm doing it this week for free. I'd probably still do it for a hit but Rodriguez could score well too this week so it's tough.

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

    How likely is it for Harvey Barnes to start on Monday? Concerned he will get benched like against Wolves

  8. mlm
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Son + Kane => Salah(c) + Vardy

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

      Yes but with Vardy(c) for me.

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

        If vardy(c), i should not get salah

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I know how tempting it is but they’re the top scorers in the game.

  9. Boberella
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Already taken a hit this week which I’m happy with.
    Would you take another hit for Saiss to someone else? Only gonna have 2 playing DEFs if not.

    Already have Chilly and Coufal. Options would be Cancelo/Dias

    1. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Good to have a full team so yes.

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

        Thanks. Which City def you prefer?

        1. 2OLEgend
          • 3 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Dias

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

      If you’ll be down to ten men otherwise then it’s probably worth it.

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

        Thanks.

  10. Luton_Fan
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Is Kane, ziyech and hamez to vardy, jota and kdb madness? -8

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Utter

    2. The Knights Template
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yes.

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

      Probably

    4. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yup

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

    McCarthy
    Cancelo, Chilwell, Lamptey
    Bruno, Sterling, Son, Zaha, Soucek
    Kane, DCL

    Steer, Brewster, Mitchell, Branthwaite

    2 FT, £2.6 itb

    Mitchell and Zaha to Kilman and Jota/Grealish ?

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

      Just Zaha to Grealish/Jota and save a FT

      1. TorresMagic™
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Defender short.

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

          Ah yes. Missed the that.
          Definitely Mitchell out then

    2. Luton_Fan
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Good moves

    3. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Thanks

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

      I’d take a punt in A this week

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Coin flip.

      Salah this gw for me

    4. Feed tha Sheep

      B

      1. Flynny
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Coin flip isn't it...

        But if I get kdb I can also get sterling for Fulham gw10 before swapping him for salah..

  13. DOCLES
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Maddison or Barnes for a punt?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Maddison

    2. Luton_Fan

      Barnes

    3. TheSteel

      Barnes

    4. Classic Haalandaise Sauce

      Maddison

  14. TheSteel
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Vardy or Sterling (c)?

    1. Mile Plankton
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Vardy party

    2. Boberella
      • 7 Years

      3 years, 4 months ago

      Vardy

  15. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Keep Kane and sell Son for KDB?

    Really unsure what to do regarding City 🙁

    1. TheSteel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I would do that move. Kane>Vardy next week

      1. The Yorkshire Pirlo
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I already have Vardy mate, quite an expensive front line...

  16. Mile Plankton
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Am I wrong to assume that I will have 3 playing defenders in James, Coufal and Justin?

    1. _Ninja_
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      unless James gets benched for Azpi v spurs.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Can’t see that happening to be fair

      2. Mile Plankton
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Right. I've been carrying Saiss for too long now. Time to get rid even for a hit.

  17. _Ninja_
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    A Son -> KDB
    B Kane -> Vardy
    C Neither

    Martinez
    Chilwell Zouma Robbo
    Bruno Son Grealish Jota
    DCL Kane Bamford

    Forster Podence Lamptey Mitchell

  18. Esalman
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Are stats such as xG and xA estimated over a full season or a certain number of matches?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Can be either.

  19. Riders of Yohan
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Thoughts on the following wildcard?

    McCarthy (4.0)
    Zouma, Cresswell, Dias (kilman, Ferguson)
    Bruno, KDB, Salah, Jota, Ziyech
    DCL, Bamford (Brewster)

    £0.1ITB

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not for me.

      1. Riders of Yohan
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        What would yours be?

        1. Rupert The Horse
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Well I’d start with Chilwell and imagine not having Vardy this week. Id down grade Ziyech as well.

    2. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A WC and you’re not including Chillwell on it? Let alone Vardy for the short term, or even Kane? Not for me, forwards too cheap, a mid has to go imo.

      1. Riders of Yohan
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        The money saved with Zouma I though was worth it re chilwell. Can do a 2 FT to bring Kane back in. Vardy is a tempting short term punt but really want KDB, Salah and Bruno.

        What would be your template wc?

        1. Salah’s Sonnet
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Not really, surely you know Chillwell is very much the preferred choice over Zouma? Entirely your choice though.
          I’d have Vardy any day to take advantage but hey man it’s your team. Just strikes me as a strangely picked WC, forwards really lack.

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

      I’d want Chilwell and Vardy on a WC

      1. Riders of Yohan
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Seems to be the consensus... thanks!

  20. tbhogal
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    What are the chances of Mitchell starting this gameweek guys?

    1. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Probably low.

    2. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Would love to know this, would assist me in my decision making for this week.

      1. Rupert The Horse
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Sadly we don’t.

        1. waldo666
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Indeed.

  21. Stupendous
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Zaha and Kane
    To
    Salah and Vardy(c)?

    Allows me to keep Son too

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

      Fine moves

    2. Rupert The Horse
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Oh my God yes.

    3. waldo666
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Like those moves.

    4. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Could pay off, although selling Kane isn’t ideal

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

        I know mate trust me!

        I'll get him back in a few weeks for sure

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          You mean after his consecutive hauls?

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

            Ugh!

            1. La Roja
              • 12 Years
              3 years, 4 months ago

              lol

    5. Boberella
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Yup. Great moves

    6. Stupendous
      • 11 Years

    A) kane & Bissouma -> Salah & Bamford (-4)
    B) kane & Bissouma -> Salah & Antonio (-4)

    1. Boberella

      Any news on Antonio yet?

    Any thoughts on the chances of Mane being benched?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I think there is a chance. Jota Bobby Salah to start I reckon

      Any reason for thinking that or general speculation?

        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        The amounts of minutes he's gotten over the past weeks, especially the midweek CL game.

        1. La Roja
          • 12 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          This

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

      I think with Jota around and in form along with a generally busy schedule there’s no reason not to rest Mane and Salah now and again.

    Martinez
    Robbo - Zouma - Targett - Kilman
    Son - Bruno - Jrod
    Vardy - DCL - Adams
    (4.0 - Soucek - Barkley* - Lamptey*)

    A) Jrod > KDB (-4)
    B) Targett > Dias (-4)
    C) Barkley > Grealish/Ziyech (-4)
    D) Hold

        Is no City coverage unwise going into next 2 weeks though?

    So are most people keeping Kane this week ?

    1. Salah’s Sonnet
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not for me, Kane to Vardy for sure

    2. Groot the Leveller
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Just read back ....
      There is no right answer or concensus on kane and son -> vardy/kdb.
      Some like neither one or both...

  26. Super John McGinn-
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Thinking of Semedo > Cancelo this week and then work towards Robbo + Bruno > 5.7 + Salah or Zieych + Bruno > Salah + Jota in the next two weeks

    Martinez, Forster
    Robertson, Chilwell, Semedo, Dallas, 3.9
    KDB, Bruno, Zieych, Grealish, Stephens
    Kane, DCL, Bamford

    1 FT, 0.2 ITB

    I have some pretty big defensive issues but feel like there will be more to gained by the moves below even if it means a potential blank in defence, thoughts?

    Jimenez and McGinn to Bamford/Watkins/Antonio and KDB

      Tempted by Antonio if fit, otherwise go Watkins. Maybe it’s just because I didn’t jump on the bandwagon but feel the Bamford party is over.

      1. Salah’s Sonnet
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Bamford party is far from over, it’s only a quarter into the season

    • 11 Years

    This is how I'm thinking of shaping up for this weekend.Son and Wilson out for Jota and Vardy.

    Martinez
    Dallas Chilly Coufal
    Bruno Jota Sterling Grealish
    DCL Vardy(c) Kane

    Kilman Lamptey Stephens.
    Thoughts.
    Good to go?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Very nice

    Alright this will be it if I do the moves above....

    Martinez
    Chilwell Cresswell Robbo
    Salah Grealish Son Ziyech Rodriguez
    Vardy (c) DCL

      Very good looking 11 but bench is weak.
