Morning DZers, I'm currently having my worst week of the season and with only 2 players left, it's not gonna get much better 😆
Costa > Adebayor was silly in hindsight (unless Ade scores a brace tomorrow) but I wouldn't have done it if I didn't have 2FT. Who said having 2FT is a good thing? 😉
Anyway, I've got a couple of early transfers in my sights... But I have the exact money to do them, so any price rises or drops will ruin my plan. I might just wait til after the Spurs game tomorrow and then hit the button and pray I don't get any injuries over the international break. I'll have Chester (WHU) as my first sub in case injuries strike...😳
I think, in general, this was a pretty tough week to score well in.
Those that kept Costa did well, those that sold him not so much.That sums it up well.
I think I'm going to do the same, and if injuries get too much then just WC I suppose
He who dares.
I screwed up hard. I genuinely thought Costa was injured but I should of played Moore instead (off the bench) and not have been so scared of not owning Jovetic. I looked at Jovetic's stats this year and last season and was very impressed but his sample size wasn't enough...might keep him against Arsenal though. At least Adebayor is a good long-term choice.
Yep... I captained Jovetic 😳 Had him since GW1 and I haven't event thought about taking him out yet 😯 Mata, on the other hand, has to go...
Same here. Got Costa out, bad GW.
We're neck and neck in our H2H Innsie, I'm leading ATM though 😎No I'm not 😳
😈
Same here, only did it cos I wan't willing to waste a FT...
Yep 🙁
Last week I sold Jovetic for Remy and now have Debuchy coming off my bench.
Not sure how to feel. 😕If he gets a clean sheet - pleased?
But what to do with Remy..?
He could be an Arsenal player by Monday.
Hmmm. Wait and see then I guess.
unless he's a Chelsea player...
i haet that they slap a yellow flag on someone the second there is a rumor or talk about an injury. so many people will be transferring out mata now even though he has a great chance at making it for the next gameweek
Do you really want him to make it back? I don't.
for united or for my own sake? i still think he can score decent over the next 2-3 gameweeks. had the two fair opportunities today that he could have put away. that's about as good as both rooney and rvp.
Mainly United but both. Rooney and Welbeck offered him two good chances for him and he crapped the bed on both of them. And considering all he offers is score sheet stats if he does that you have to say he was horrible, which he was. Him, RVP and Evans were horrendous today along with our entire midfield bar Di Maria.
i agree evans was embarrassing. rvp probably needs to build some more match fitness. i don't have the tactical insight to really say how well mata is playing, but he does look to get into the box a lot (so for fantasy that's ok, but it's probably not enough for united) i hope di maria can bring some energi into that team, cus right now we are as good as today's result
My team..
DDG/Gilks
Debuchy/Dummet/Cahill/Clyne/Chester
Ramsey/Eriksen/Sterling/Siggy/Mata
Dzeko/Rooney/Fletcher
Which option do you guys prefer?
A) Fletcher & Mata ----> Ade & Marney
B) Dzeko & Fletcher ----> Ade & Naismith
C) Mata & Fletcher ----> Fab & Naismith
D) Other (Suggest in comments)
Im thinking C. Not sure though. Thanks in advance 😀Just realised Naismith went up to 5.3. Can't do C) :/
WC is also an option.C
A then.
Im pretty hesitant to use my WC. To bring Costa and Co in.
Krul Elliot
Caulker PVA Hutton Chambers Kelly
Lamela Siggy Ramsey Mata Marney
Sturridge Rooney Jovetic
Wilcard?
Want rid of Caulker, Chambers, Kelly, Mata, Jovetic, possibly also Lamela and SturridgeOh, and Rooney
I'd wait until the rest of the games end as well as the trade deadline passes Monday. If you really want to get rid of 8 of your players, WC Tuesday. Doubt there will be many more price changes before then.
Dont lose sturridge with villa home
costa the ultimate fantasy troll this week
RM WC T please folks 🙂
krul
elliott
ivan
janmaat
bertrand
pva
duff
ramsey
fab
ster
siggy
dyer
aguero
d costa
naismith
Dyer is a knee-jerk from yesterday - any other suggestions welcomeMy main suggestion is format your team how others do (look below).
Team looks good though.Krul
Ivan Janmaat Bertrand ( PVA, Duff)
Ramsey Fabregas Sterling Sigurdsson ( Dyer)
Aguero Costa Naismith
I wouldn't spend 5.5m on a 5th mid(ala Young), and I wouldn't rotate Naismith and Dyer.
So IMO, either 352 with Dyer or 343 with Naismith, and use cash to upgrade elsewhereThis is good advice, although both are likely to ride some price rises
Cheers. I could downgrade Dyer to King and free up a million. I could either save it or put a bit more into the keeper position.
However, I prefer to have an 'active' bench to cover injuries, rotation etc since this is my WC long-term squad. Mind you my 2 spare defenders (who rotate very well by the way) can always come in.
WC activated. Here's my current team:
Krul (Guzan)
Clyne, Ivanovic, Vlaar (Wisdom, Dummet)
Ramsey, Sterling, Fabregas, Siggy (Dyer)
Aguero, Costa, Naismith
0.2 in the bank. Switched Rooney, Bojan --> Aguero, Naismith before the price rise :). Might still consider going back to Rooney before GW4 though.
Any other advice? Vlaar, Dummet and Dyer are not nailed on my team yet.Almost identical to mine posted above.
Vlaar now runs into a nightmare run of fixtures, Dummett's just been dropped and Wisdom may be about to. Better 4m options might be Moore and Duff.
So far I'm thinking Mata and Dzeko to Cesc and Costa -4 (ridiculous I sold him I know). Pending injuries/price changes.
Begovic
Ferdinand - Clyne - PvA
Eriksen - Mata - Siggy - Ramsey
Dzeko - Balotelli - Rooney
Gilks -- Marney - Kelly - ChesterSeems very sensible. Couple of fires to put out in defense but I'd make the two moves you suggest first for sure.
Did you see my post about WC this week?Na I missed it, got a link?
Wrong link?
Oops. Here you go...
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/8145675😆
The only real problem I have in my defence is Kelly seeing as palace don't look like keeping a CS any time soon
And Rio, despite the clean sheet today.
Cesc and Costa - do it. Otherwise, looks excellent except that at the mo Balotelli is a punt. Let's see how he does today.
is naismith becoming essential?
some really good fixtures
No.
Does anyone think Man U will score more than other top teams over the next three fixtures. Because their easy run has been nothing short of disaster. Also they don't even look like scoring. I have had a good gameweek but have 3 Man U players, one 3.9 who is not playing, myhill. Should I panic and wildcard to remove the Man U players restructure my team to a 352 instead of 343.
I'm holding tight with Roon, Mata, and Jones. If they don't score vs. QPR at home, that may change.
I've gone 3-5-2 with Naismith as my 3rd forward.Panicking usually ends up being a bad thing to do
Yes, I know. If Man U looked better than a newly promoted team I would not even be considering it. But it seems like hoping rather than expecting them to perform.
When has panicking to do anything ever worked out? Ride out a bad GW and reassess then.
Van Gaal has said it will take 3 months for the players to adapt and he's not looking wrong. I started with 3 United players and after WCing I have none. One game might be a panic; 3 easy fixtures blown is a pattern.
have done my 2 FT, Ivan and Clyne in for Azpi and Kolarov for free
...................Begovic
........Ivan - Clyne - Hutton
Fabregas - Yaya - Ramsey - Siggy
.....Naismith - Rooney - Costa
Gilks; Marney, Chambers, Baird
I'd like to be rid of Yaya/Rooney soon but those are luxury moves..next up on the chopping block are Chambers and Baird..maybe the FPL gods will strike Kosc/Mert down with a 2-3 week injury 🙄Yaya 😯
😯
2 good transfers but you're left with hutton starting and 2 non-playing defenders on your bench. Looking at Villa's run of games you'll want Hutton on the bench so certainly Baird to Moore or Duff needs to be your next move.
agreed
I'm looking at the following, in no particular order yet
Yaya > Sterling/Di Maria
Rooney > Aguero
Baird > Duff/Moore/PvA/Colo/Naylor
Chambers > Moreno/FavioThey'd all work. Wish I had your patience!
I'm surprised I've only taken 1 hit so far this season! haha
I think my moves next gameweek will be a -4 for Yaya > Sterling/Di Maria and Chambers > Moreno as I don't see Baird's price dropping anytime soon
Hi DZ ..
Resisted a WC button last night
What to do with this lot ? Ideas appreciated
Begovic / Krul
Cahill / Jones / Clyne / Chambers / Wisdom
Ramsey / Sterling / Lamela / Siggy / Marney
Aguero / Rooney / Naismith
1.5 to spend,only 1 FT.Lamela to Fab
kun to costa for me
dont WC its a great team!Thants For advice ..i just did Costa to Kun this week 😆
Didn't we all. Go back to Costa!
Otherwise Chambers and Wisdom may end up non-playing but the rest is great.
Thanks Innsie ! Fairly poor start for me 🙁
Good luck for Ade tonight 🙂Cheers 🙂
Lamela to Cesc depending on how he goes
Cheers
Advice to remove Lamela is nuts. Great form, good price, behind the striker.
If it was a straight decision between Lamela and Fab, I'd choose Fab. The rest of his team looks fine which is why I advised that.
But it isn't a decision he has to make to get Fab in. 6 goals and only one assist does not make me wanna get him.
Yes but he's a consistent point scorer. FPL wise,he's very good pick
That's one way of looking at it. Another way is seeing that he's got 4 assists in 3 games, and is owned by 37% of teams, so you're missing out on consistent returns that a lot of active players are getting basically every week.
Good point. But balance that against a major differential who will rocket you up the ranks if he continues to perform...
Lol. This too !! 😀
Getting confused and better delete my team and quit FPL 😛The key word being 'if' 😉
'If' he scores a hat trick tonight ,i would be very happy 😀
I want Fab for his home game and also don't want to lose Lamela.
So big dilemma for me.. Might do Kun to Costa again probably 😀
imo rooney to sturridge...pool have the fixtures, and so does lamella, who is sensational
Rooney to Costa ? I think i need some Chelsea attack .Sturridge also tempting me 🙂
rooney to costa/sturridge is the best move imo...up to you which one you go for 🙂
Cheers AR !
Yaya's smug laugh on his FPL pic is a massive troll to his owners.
3 games. 5 points. 11m (now 10.9)I think it was fairly easy to predict he wouldn't repeat last season.
That being said, he could have easily scored twice today.
today was the first day he looks bothered
looked
he'll come good over the next two matches..big game player 😉
Let his price drop more and get him when he finds his boots back 😉
Horrible GW. Costa----Kun(-4), Schurrle doesn't play, Mata blank, Rooney blank 😕
Tempted to activate my WC.....but that would be silly. Thoughts? Team's below
DDG
Terry Debuchy Chester (Caulker,Wisdom)
Mata Ramsey Sigurdsson Schurrle
Rooney Aguero Naismith
ATM, I have an 8 point hit lined up. Terry, Schurrle and Mata on the way out. So probably don't need to WC.....
Just thinking out loud 😀Our H2H comes down to Adebayor v Debuchy 😯
Wrong.
Adebayor VS Debuchy + 4 points 😀Don't forget your hit...
Dammit.......I forgot about that..... 😆
Debuchy VS Adebayor it is. May the best man win.
Just have to hope Arsenal keep Leicester quiet, and Adebayor gets sent off or something like that.😆
Good luck.
You don't need to WC, so avoid that.
Just remember a WC doesn't guarantee you any more points than your current squad, just the chance to feel better after a bad GW.
Keep Terry. No internationals.
A -4 for Mata and Schurrle (fab and Sterling..?)At this point i wouldn't use the WC, as it could generate far more in incremental points for a double game week then the 8 pts it will cost you now.
Do you guys think its worth using your WC during this break? Im extremely tempted. Need that Chelsea attack.
imo no, but if you think you need to, why not 🙂
I mean when is their a better time? I don't like using it on DGW (Unless its the end of the season like GW 37) because you tend to get 2-3 players from teams playing 2 games, even if the team is mediocre therefore screwing up your team for the rest of the season.
as I said, I don't want to use it now, but if there are lots of players you want to get in, go for it! 🙂
although looking at your team you don't need it imo...a hit would fix a lot
I have and loving new new 🙂
team
I don't. Much nicer to have one down the road if there's a big dgw
how many DGW were there last season 2 or 3 tops ?
It's your play but having one after the winter WC is good too. I don't think this is a good game wk to play it. You could probably get what you want with a hit.
Depends on your team at the moment
I'm happy with my team now after taking a hit two weeks in a row so will save my WC for the 2nd international break when squads are more settled+1 this will be the better break to play it in this year
I'm pretty sure the guy that came 2nd last year used it around GW3? If you feel like you need to, use it
Selecting Terry over Ivanovic has cost me 20 points. Pretty unbelievable to think it's that large of a gap after 3 weeks.
I know...and now im wondering whether terry will troll me if I get rid off him 😆
Have pulled the pin on my WC
Was this
Krul, Myhill
Chambers, Blackett, HUTTON, Caulker, IVAN
Yaya, Mata, STERLING, RAMESY, Hazard,
NAISMITH, Fetcher, JOVETIC
Now this
McGregor *, Given *
IVAN, N.Taylor, Coleman/Baines, HUTTON, Pieters*
Siggy, STERLING, RAMESY, Fabs, Dyer*
JOVETIC, Costa, NAISMITH
* means could end up changing 1.1m in bank
9 new players to sort out def and strengthen my front row with Costa
Most likely drop Pieters to another 4m,
What is good goalkeeper pairing ? 10m topsGreen and Forster/Begovic is nice...
Krul/bego at 9.5 has worked reasonably well so far for me. Krul/Mannone is a goer too.
Evertons defense is way too leaky for me to go anywhere near it at this stage with tough fixtures coming. Be advised 😉Eventon are always slow out of the blocks and want Coleman or Baines from GW 8, and they both goal threat too. But thanks for the warning 🙂
So I need Sanchez to score 8 or more today to remotely justify binning Costa....
well all he needs is a goal...good luck 🙂
Score 8 or more goals 80
Haha, points, not goals!
Lineup for next week, saving my FT:
Begovic/Krul
Lovren, Caulker, Clyne (chambers, wisdom)
Ramsey, Sterling, fabregas, Tadic (Siggy)
Rooney, Costa, Naismith
Would you drop Siggy (at Chelsea), Tadic (Newcastle), or Naismith (at WBA)?
Looking to find a long-term replacement for Rooney, either Balotelli or Sturridge. If it's Balotelli I could afford to scrape together enough (with 0.5 itb) to upgrade Tadic>another 9.0 mid, like Walcott when he's back for example.
What is the best approach to find 0.5 in my defense? I'm thinking either bego>Mannone or Chambers>Dummett...Jovetic & Bony -> Sturridge/Costa & Naismith (4 points) is mighty tempting....
probably a good move that
Yess but wait untill next week
Should I be looking at moving in Adebayor for Dzeko now before the price rises and I can't make the transfer or do I have other issues with my team I need to change?
Begovic
Dummet-Ferdinand-Naylor
Mata-Ramsay-Hazard-Sigurdson
Rooney-Aguero-Dzeko
Gilks-Moore-PvA-MarneI would choose Adebayor regardless of price rises because he's more nailed on to start games
price rises have happened today...ade will play before the next lot of changes, so you should be able to decide by then 🙂
Cheers guys
Begovic - Krul
Cahill - Dummett - Wisdom - Chambers - Bruce
Young - Hazard - Ramsey - Sterling - El Ahmadi
Rooney - Aguero - Pelle
Swapped Jovetic out the week before he scored 2 goals.
Swapped Costa out the week before he scored 2 goals.
Young & Chambers not working and Rooney -> Costa seems like a good option. Time to WC?Sounds like you're chasing the points too much.
Your team looks fine, just replace Young this week. Siggy, Henderson and Schneiderlin (for a potential rise) should all be attainable
Is it crazy that I prefer Cesc to Hazard?
not at all...I love cesc 🙂
^ Roger that 🙂
No. I do too. Hazard looks isolated on the wings. He looks more likely to assist than score this year. Fabregas takes setpieces, comes forward a lot, is around 1M cheaper and has been playing well.
Nope.
If you said this 3-4 weeks ago, Yes. But atm, no.
No.
If Balotelli does well against Spurs, will you bring him in against Villa at home? Diego Costa is in the same price-range but plays City after Swansea. Some people are taking Rooney out but surely Utd will step it up. Their squad is coming together now.
yeah that would definitely create a bandwagon
I'm not interested in Balo... yet.
I'm worried that Rooney can't perform when Van Persie is in the team. If Balotelli performs well I will seriously consider a move regardless of
QPR being Rooney's next fixture. Costa is a keeper regardless of fixture, in fact I think he might score more against top sides than the dross because of the space behind... He excelled on the counter with Madrid after allRooney looked decidedly more threatening after RVP went off today. An uneasy working relationship there
Great point. I feel as though RvP hinders Rooney too.
Where do we think Remy will end up then? If at Arsenal he could be an fpl bargain.
hopefully he chooses arsenal, would make more sense for him...
I really want him at emirates and loan Campbell to other EPL club to gain experience
Wherever he goes,still rotation risk imo
I bought him last week so please not Chelsea or I'm doomed.
Which team do you guys prefer?
DDG/Gilks
Debuchy/Dummet/Cahill/Clyne/Chester
Ramsey/Eriksen/Sterling/Siggy/Mata
Dzeko/Rooney/Fletcher
Or
KRUL/Gilks
Debuchy/Dummet/Cahill/Clyne/Chester
Ramsey/Eriksen/Sterling/Siggy/MARNEY
Rooney/ADE/COSTA
(-8)
If I WC I could replace Dummet, etc.
(2FT)second one is very nice...as I said you don't really need to wildcard 🙂
😛 -8 worth it though?
for me yes...although wait for tomorrows games
Option 2. Costa/ADe over mata/Dzeko any day
For a -8? 🙂
B for sure. City rotation is often frustrating and fletcher could be dicey. You want costa in for sure and rooney is bound to get some points (eventually)
try and squeeze fab in - I would want recommend at least some Chelsea cover, perhaps over sterling
midfield cover*
Already on -8. Not keen on doing -12.
Team #2
Would you drop Siggy (at Chelsea), Tadic (Newcastle), or Naismith (at WBA)?
Hold onto Chambers or find another 4.5 or 4.0? If trading, who to bring in?Tadic
probably get rid...hutton, pva, ferdinand, naylorCheers.
I have caulker already so no to Ferdinand. Huttons fixtures suck too.
All I need now is for Spurs to tank Liverpool and I will be golden...
Ade & Eriksen (c)Lovren and Sterling are gonna thrash spurs 😉
Differences this year:
Ivanovic vs Terry - 0.5M, way higher score difference
Janmaat vs Coloccini 0.5M, decent score difference
Clyne vs Yoshida 0.5M, decent score difference
Pieters/Shawcross vs Begovic
List goes on. Lesson learned. Don't be cheap. Attacking potential on defenders is worth a extra 0.5M.How about Trippier (5.0) and Duff (4.0) 😉
Plays for Burnley haha
Mostly agree, though Colo is a baps magnet when they don't concede and a bargain at 4.5 IMO.
