The dream team of Andy, Joe and Seb are back with their regular delve into the current talking points of the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) community.

With Gameweek 7 non-existent and Gameweek 8 hindered by several postponements, all three have decided to activate their Wildcard chips.

As well as using underlying stats to determine their new-look squads, they look at the fixture run between Gameweeks 13 and 16 to ensure long-term security alongside short-term benefits.

All three reveal their current drafts – with one currently on a West Ham United midfield double-up – before the usual updates on the community squad and then Andy’s regular Q&A session.



FPL Marc Broadcaster, writer and overthinker. Hoping that ‘differential potential’ will catch on.

    Who needs to go?

    A) TAA
    B) James

    To

    1) trippier (already have pope)
    2) Cancelo (already have Walker)

    Thanks for the input guys!

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

      TAA to Cancelo

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

      A2

    3. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      TAA, will drop tonight

    4. Tshelby

      3 years, 3 months ago

      Cheers guys thanks for making it an easy choice :)!

      James was still getting forward but Chelsea played in a 4 back.

      Salzburg were offering loads of space out wide so he was able to get forward (and was furthest forward, on the other side of the pitch from where the ball was, when Salzburg broke to score their goal)

      It's difficult to tell whether that was a specific formation for Salzburg or that's the one he's settled on (if you can say Potter is settled on a formation that is)

      Fixtures wise, James has the better by far and is cheaper than TAA.

    Best defender on Wildcard under 4.8m ?

    A) Zouma
    B) Coufal
    C) Digne
    D) Saliba

    Yes, Digne is a troll, but has a nice fixture in GW12 when Ars V City don't play, and Wedt Ham are away to Liverpool

    Cheers.

    1. George James
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

    2. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If you're after a defender at that price and want them to start gw8 and gw12 then Digne and Schar are probably your best options.

      You're right though in saying Digne is a huge troll

  3. OPTA FPL
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Finally TAA dropping tonight, -96% on fplstats and the selling rate still very fast

    1. kamdaraji
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I don't think so. Lots of people wildcarding him out which affects the stats

      1. OPTA FPL
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        his sold out rate very quick , will > 1003 to deduct WC

        1. OPTA FPL
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          *103%

      2. internal error
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        This

    2. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      People have said this the last 4/5 days in a row where he's looked even closer to the threshold and he hasn't dropped much like a lot of other players like Bruno Guimaraes. Lots and lots of chips in play

  4. @ocprodigy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    No one here looking at the imminent return of Cresswell?

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Strange isn’t it

  5. Atimis
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    On this team now after -4. The next question is, would you just hit WC during IB or try to fix it with FT/another hit?

    Rambo/Ward
    TAA/Cancelo/Perisic/Trippier/Neco
    KDB/Martinelli/Sinisterra/Gross/Pereira
    Haaland/Jesus/Mitro

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      TAA to Schar IMO

      1. Rohirrims
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Schar best newcastle option after Pope/ Trippier?

      2. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        A bit uninspiring tbh

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      that teams not broken.

      Maybe Ramsdale and Perisic to switch?

      1. Atimis
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, main problems imo

  6. House Frey Wedding Planner
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Bottomed

    Which is the best combination to go for on a wildcard?

    A - KDB, Gordon, Isak
    B - Bowen, ASM, Kane

    Pope, Ward
    Cancelo, Trippier, James, Dier, Emerson/Neco
    Maddison, Martinelli, Bailey, ****, ****
    Haaland, Mitrovic, ****

    At least 1.0 itb to do Martinelli âž¡ Zaha in gw10 for both options

    1. Rohirrims
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

  7. Stimps
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Noticing KDB in most wildcard drafts.Personally I think he hasn't done much to justify his price tag, and has tough enough fixtures

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      shhh let them buy him

    2. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      silva is matching for nearly 1/2 the price

    3. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      that's funny, I kept seeing Son.

      Maybe I've not paid attention enough recently.

    4. The Mentaculus
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      You dont look for 'value' in premiums - they're the spots where you get to focus purely on who you think scores the most points. And he's on another level to Son, Salah, Sterling etc right now

      1. The Ilfordian
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Agreed. He’s become provider number one for the goal machine

  8. You've got red on you.
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    a) KDB and Emerson

    b) Son and Coufal

    1. George James
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A if you have bench cover for Emerson

      1. You've got red on you.
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        I don't this week but going forward I'd have James and Zaha ahead of Emerson

        1. George James
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Should be ok but this is the week you may need a bench

  9. George James
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Wildcard draft #35156

    Thoughts?

    Pope
    Trippier • Zouma • Cancelo
    ASM • Maddison • Foden • Martinelli
    Kane • Haaland • Mitro

    Ward / Neco / Andreas / James

  10. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best 7.0 or less mid. Already have Martinelli

    A - Bilva
    B - Gundo
    C - Gordon
    D - Other suggestion?

    1. George James
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Bilva. Think he is being slept on bigtime

    2. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      B

    3. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

    4. House Frey Wedding Planner
      • 7 Years

      A

    5. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      3 years, 3 months ago

  11. banskt
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    What were your impression of Sterling playing in Potter system?

    1. Eat my goal!
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      He got in good positions - it paid off - more to come

    2. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Good, but 10m good? Not so sure.

    3. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Was very very advanced. Probably don't buy don't sell for now but I'm happy to have him, he was their most advanced player on heatmaps/pass maps and constantly looked to get up the line and cut inside and shoot

    4. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Scored a well taken goal, he's always had class.

      https://twitter.com/Jon_Mackenzie/status/1570209767523745794?t=dpwavMHQ77ONyUjrmvWn-A&s=19

      only had time to watch the first half, the second part will likely focus on attacking play and patterns.

  12. House Frey Wedding Planner
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Looks like ASM has taken over from Antonio in having (if fit) added to the end of his name 🙂

  13. Sarri-ball
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Better combo 1 week only

    A) kdb/son
    B) Kane/ foden

    1. Rohirrims
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years

  15. Pepeye
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years

    Haaland's goal last night one of the best I have ever seen.One of thoose moment's when the coffee cup goes up in the air

    1. Andy_Social
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Expect a lot more. Does nothing for 85 minutes, then that. Breaker of FPL analytics.

    2. abaalan
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Preferred Stones goal to be honest.

    3. polecalmer
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      cancelo's assist was just as spectactular, on the outside of the boot..Haalands volley was about as high as he is

  16. FC Hakkebøf
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Best trio midterm?

    A) Kane, Sterling, ASM/Max 7.5 midfielder
    B) Isak, Son, Sterling
    C) Isak, KDB, Sterling
    D) Kane, KDB, Gordon

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      C

  17. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    2 FT and 1m ITB. Currently 8 starters for GW8

    A - Salah & Plange > Bilva and Kane
    B - Same as A plus Harrison > Gordon for -4 hit
    C - WC
    D - Other suggestion?

    Ramsdale
    Cancelo - Perisic - Henry
    Martinelli
    Jesus - Haaland

    Ward - TAA - Harrison - Salah - Gross - James - Plange

    1. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Salah, Plange, TAA to KDB/Son, Mitro, Trippier work?

      I can only see 7 starters though at present, maybe WC is best option

      1. Jet5605
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks. I missed out Andreas of Fulham who should start.

        Yeah good shout. -4 hit isn't too bad and Tripp was on my watch list anyway

        1. antis0cial
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Yeah I think you can save WC then, got a solid enough 11 after transfers. -4 is fine this week imo

  18. Letsgo!
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Son or kane if on wc?
    Anyone on wc taking jwp?

    1. Kane in a binary choice with no other factors

      No. Lavia out seems to be causing him to play a little deeper - I'd like to see another game or two first.

    2. Guba
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Easy Kane

  19. dannyreeves1977
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Diaz gone for gw8. who to replace with in similar price bracket?

    A) Kulu
    B) Bernardo Silva
    C) Saint-Max (assuming passed fit)

    1. FC Hakkebøf
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Foden

  20. billnats
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    A) Emerson, Salah, Isak
    B) Perisic, Rashford, Kane

    1. Hansel

      A

  21. Malinwa
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    GTG?
    Salah+TAA+Archer > Bilva+Perisic+Haaland? (next week WC)

    Ward
    TAA* Trippier Cancelo Neco
    Salah* Martinelli Andreas Diaz*
    Kane Jesus

    Sanchez* - James* - Gross* - Archer

    1. antis0cial
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      In a week when you're not gonna have a bench I think Perisic and even Bilva may be an unnecessary risk

      1. Malinwa
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Will use my WC next week

        1. antis0cial
          • 9 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          That wasn't really my point. If Perisic doesn't play/start you're down to 10 this week. 9 if Bilva is rotated.

          1. Malinwa
            • 9 Years
            3 years, 3 months ago

            Cheers. You're right. I was hoping Bilva would play. He was rested yesterday against Dortmund.
            Any other option you would advice?

            1. antis0cial
              • 9 Years
              3 years, 3 months ago

              Bilva probably will start if you're happy to roll the dice, so maybe just go a diff def, take your pick of nailed starters

    Thoughts on bit of a mix on template WC (Keeping Salah for Brighton) & Foden become Zaha

    Ward
    Neco Cancelo Trippier
    Andreas Foden Martinelli Maddison
    Isak Haaland(c) Mitro

    Iverson Salah James Fofana
