As tomorrow’s deadline edges ever-closer, Fantasy managers are turning to a couple of bustling Belgians in their droves as we attempt to ride out a tricky six-match Gameweek. Second and third for forwards in terms of transfers in so far, Romelu Lukaku and Christian Benteke both look strong mid-price options with games against Swansea and Reading respectively. With five goals apiece in their last six appearances, the duo have been in prolific form of late – we cast an eye over their statistics in this latest article for members:
Anyone else thinking all this talk about Rooney going/staying, his skills have diminished, no, his skills are the same, will only lead to one thing?
An explosion of points in the run in? Point proven from Shrek?
I think so.Open ControlsIf anyone else is getting to upset cos of this rubbish GW, this may calm you down.
http://youtu.be/xrZawHxzIdAOpen ControlsMata - 9.8 25% ownership
Hazard - 9.3 18% ownership
Lampard 8.6 5% ownership
Gotta get on board the Lampard wagon ASAPOpen Controls4 players (Lampard, Luiz, Mikel, Ramires) battling for two spots. Uh-huh.
Open ControlsLampard has started the last 10 premier league games. He's nailed on.
Open ControlsRafatation doesn't need any logic. He might just get dropped for the next. And holding midfielders are never ideal FPL prospects.
Open ControlsHolding midfielder, are you serious? He's about to become their highest ever goal scorer 😯
Open ControlsSaniul, I think you've got it wrong there. He's not really a holding midfielder. And he's scoring a lot, it's just that the bandwagon hasn't picked up yet. He's a great pick tbf, and we win a lot of penalties too. And his penalty kicks are just too good.
Open Controls
Throw Oscar in he has the best recent stats.
Open ControlsMight go Oscar as fifth mid, had enough of puncheon
Open Controls
Agreed, definitely getting him in next week.
Open Controlsca;t do it next week
No room at the inn
Sturridge and Fella to Rooney and Maloney (-4) next week
will have to wait until his DGWOpen ControlsThe ownership is going to rocket if he gets anything against West Ham. People are looking to get rid of Mata, and they'll only ship Lamps in for the Chelsea coverage.
Open Controls
5.0 for a defender this week!?
Open Controlswhat do ppl think of keeping RAFAEL?? Will he play next week again Reading or chance of smalling playing??
Open ControlsOK (concise) repost
Hi guys, would really appreciate some input with this weeks transfer(s)
I have 10 starting hopefully this week and 2 FT. 0.0mil in the bank.
Bego (Turnbull!)
Enrique, Wilson, Harte, Clyne. (azpili)
Sissoko, Bale, Michu, (Fellaini, Walcott)
Suarez, Sturridge, (RVP)
Obviously wanna try to carry 2FT into next week for DGW announcements
Thinking either
A: Bego to Bunn or Turn to Bunn
or
B: RVP to Lukaku then Sturridge to RVP next week
or
C: Fellaini to cheapo (maybe punch)
What say ye?
orOpen ControlsI like B.
Open ControlsYou're in a prime situation to get your keeper sorted so I would do that.
Open ControlsB
stay away from AOpen Controls
Please weigh in with opinions on the odds on the following for this gameweek:
Sissoko - 1 Goal - 66% likelihood
Benteke - 1 Goal - 50% likelihood
Samba - Clean Sheet - 33% likelihood
Thanks.Open ControlsBottom of last page, one reply (thanks LeBron):
With Kebe definitely out Robson-Kanu looks nailed on for this weekend.
Would you prefer:
A. HRK this week, RVP next week
or
B. Rooney next week, DeGuzman/Morrison/N’Zog/Hoillett/Taarabt this week (6.1 budget)?Open ControlsOut of the list I gave he is my favourite too.
Open Controls
I'd happily settle for A.
Open Controls
Debuchy, better chance of a cleanie this weekend.
Open Controls
Benteke is rising tonight. So go ahead with the planned Aguero to Benteke transfer, yeah?
Open ControlsDoes anyone play Diablo 3?
Open ControlsQuick Poll
Artcile above suggests Benteke and Lukaku is a toin coss, but what about Remy.
A) Benteke
B) Lukaku
C) RemyOpen Controlscoin toss!
Open ControlsI think the article says that when Lukaku starts, he is actually a better goal threat. Lukaku looks very likely to start this weekend, so I'd go Lukaku.
Open Controls
Vote...
"United exiting the CL means there are fewer games so..."
A) RVP will be rotated MORE
B) RVP will be rotated LESS
C) No differenceOpen ControlsIf United go through against us on Sunday, he might be rotated, if not, then I'm sure SAF would play him for the golden boot. B) for me.
Open ControlsB - Golden Boot, but probably rested a game or two after they have secured the title.
Open ControlsThe Golden Boot is the main reason given and it's plausible, you have to wonder how much that sways SAF though. Or even RVP, who won it last year. Surely SAF could also see lots of no-pressure games as a golden chance to get the rest of his squad trying out stuff for next year?
Open Controls
B or C, close. Don't see why Fergie would not let RVP become the top scorer in the PL mate. RVP wants it.
Open ControlsOnly game i see him being rested (barring injury) before is FA cup final now, should they get there
Open Controls
Who could you (c) ?
A: Lambert
B: Michu
C: Snodgrass
D: SuarezOpen ControlsRooney and Suarez
or
RVP and sturridge?????????Open ControlsRooney and Suarez. Sturridge's injury troubles are a bigger concern than Rooney's deeper positiong.
Open Controls
I've got 1 FT, how many of these do you like the look of...
A) Federici > Bunn
B) Demel > Wilson
C) Fellaini > Sissoko
D) Pogrebnyak > LukakuOpen ControlsAlright, Samba or Santon for the next week or 2?
Open ControlsRvp > Suarez & Mata > Sissoko for a 4pt hit, is it worth doing Sturridge > Benteke for 8pt hit?
I have nothing to lose really (besides 8pts) and I'm chasing pts in mini league.Open ControlsJK,
I'm not planning to get Rooney in, instead I am planning to get one of Nani/Kagawa in for Michu in a couple of weeks time. This can turn out to be genius, but right now, it sounds very stupid..Open ControlsAK, interesting idea, and I'm for that. But how would you decide when neither seem sure starters in the Utd lineup?
Open ControlsNone of our midfield bar Carrick are nailed on enough IMO.
I can get Lamps in for Fellaini next week, but I'll have to take Remy over Benteke this week, as with Benteke I'd have to sell Fella to Maloney to have enough cash.Open Controls
Would like your views on my team for this week guys:
Bunn (Mignolet)
Davies Shaw Debuchy Harte (Evans)
Sissoko Bale(c) Michu (Mata, Walcott)
Lambert Sturridge (RVP)
Took one 4 point hit. Bank: £3.8m.
Thanks in advance!Open ControlsLooks good, It's teams like yours that's tempting me to take a hit! 😀
Open ControlsLOL, I had to take one hit to field 10 players. Don't think another hit is necessary. Got a decent team value but this year has been hard for me in terms of FPL as was job hunting and had no time to follow it much like last season.. Hopefully I can only improve from now on 😉
Open ControlsHe's playing with 10 men, has no Suarez, no Benteke, no Remy, no Lukaku, no Gerrard, a Saints defender and a Reading defender.
Hit away!!!Open ControlsBut he's also very well set up for next week don't you think?
Open ControlsWell yea I suppose, but so are most people regardless of this week mate.
Most have the likes of Mata, RVP, Rooney, Theo, Haz and company on the benches waiting to go, and, with fixtures so juicy next week, it should be a huge gameweek for points.Open Controls
A rading defender that almost always delivers an assist though. Don't get Gerrard love lol.
Open Controls
10 is about par, and I will be taking a hit to get there. Looks good, and I agree with your (c).
Open ControlsThanks mate.
Open Controls
Who is the best Long Term DEF?
A) Debuchy - not sure about NEW can keep clean sheet.
B) Dawson - 4.6 Big Team but Hard fixtures.
C) Turner - 4.2 with Light fixtures and can save money for ATK but I hv Bunn/De GeaOpen ControlsNEW POST (with a message from the Gods)
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2013/03/08/sky-sports-focus-23/#comment-5351305Open ControlsWant to bring in a striker this week. Hopefull just for one week but might be longer if Sturridge gets crooked again...so...

Occam's razor (also written as Ockham's razor, Latin lex parsimoniae) is a principle of parsimony, economy, or succinctness used in logic and problem-solving. It states that among competing hypotheses, the one that makes the fewest assumptions should be selected.
I think a few people should read this before they make their selections.Open ControlsHave you been watching Big Bang Theory??! 😉

I imagine Mark will go with Johnson over Enrique, although I think Enrique is a better value pick overall.
I have 6 of these, but have Pearce instead of Harte.Open Controls
