    Is it more important to do
    vvd to alderwireld
    Targett to nyome
    Barkley to hazard?

    1. Eden Hazardous

      All of them are important except the Hazardous one

    Any news in regards of Swansea next manager?

    Personally think Giggs is not what they needed.

        Really?

        They can do much better.

    So the RMT tool is telling me to ditch Bolasie this week. Best option here?

    A) Bolasie -> a risky 2 week option in Pedro/Ayew (before switching to Sanchez in GW19)

    B) Bolasie -> a solid mid term option in Ramsey/Coutinho

    C) VVD/Kolarov -> Zouma

    D) Kolarov & Bolasie -> Zouma & Hazard(c) [-4]. Hazard -> Sanchez in 2 weeks.

    DDG
    Bellerin, Moreno, VVD
    KDB, Mahrez, Barkley, Bolasie
    Kane, Lukaku, Giroud

    Hennessey, Kolarov, Simpson, Surman
    Bank 4.5m, 1FT

    1. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      i'd be inclined to keep bolasie over barkley

      fancy bellerin over kolarov this week?

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah - Bellerin is at home and nailed on, whereas Kolarov is neither.

        Barkley looked rubbish yesterday, but has some tasty fixtures.

    2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ

      Wouldn't bother selling Bolasie for someone you'll only sell again in a fortnight. Wouldn't go near Chelsea to be honest.

      Id probably save and reasses next week.

      1. Jinswick
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah, A is pretty short sighted I guess. Saving or C) is probably the right play, although if Hazard shows positive signs tomorrow I will tempted with D! Cheers

  4. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ

    I'm looking at 3 potential transfers this week. Of course, I am going to wait until all the games are over to make any moves.

    Gomez > Simpson
    Westwood > Stanislas
    DDG > Butland

    I know, I know. I still have Gomez. He looks the obvious move, since he is injured. I've just never had time to remove him, and wouldn't haven't ever called upon my 5th defender as I played 3 strong ones every week.

    The second is an upgrade over the Christmas period, but a downgrade in price. Stanislas is likely to actually score points and is 4.2.

    The latter will free up 0.8m. Stoke are solid with Shawcross in the side, and Butland punishes me every week with his hauls. DDG has some great fixtures so it seems stupid to remove him, but he is expensive for a keeper, considering there is one a lot cheaper who is scoring a lot more points.

    Thoughts?

    1. Tshelby
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Why Simpson if I may ask?

      1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        He is 4.0m and pretty much nailed on. All these moves are focussed on freeing up funds whilst getting in better players.

        1. Lateriser 12
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Not tempted to push the 4.0 to 4.4 for Ward? I'm thinking on those lines as well..or WestBrom..or Wollschield?

          1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            I could do, but I've got them in my sights for a 4th defender when the time comes around. Wolly would somewhat cover Butland's points, but I would be a step away from getting Aguero, rather than a step towards him.

        2. Tshelby
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Oh okay imo getting Stanislas and Butland are good moves!

    2. Jinswick
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      No need to do all 3 this week. In fact, there is an argument to do none of them. What's the rest of your squad looking like? How much cash and how many freebies do you have?

      DDG has good upcoming fixtures so I'd definitely avoid that one.

      Assuming the rest of your squad is in good shape I'd say Gomez -> x is the best move. X depends on cash and rest of your team.

      1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Forgot to mention, I have 2 FTs this week. I won't be doing all 3, 1 at least, possibly 2.

        I'm happy with the rest of my team, looking solid. Only weak points are Barkley, who I don't think will score as well as other similarly priced midfielders over the Christmas period, and Kolarov who is somewhat of a rotation risk with Clichy back.

        I have 5.4m in the bank but I'm looking to save as much as possible so that I can bring Kun in if needs be. With him out, that money isn't totally necessary and I'd rather not tie it up in 'bench fodder'. They may be called upon in the next few weeks, but there are picks who are just as good for much cheaper.

        1. Jinswick
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Ok, in that case I would just do Gomez -> Zouma/WBA defender. If looking to save some cash I'd consider Olsson (WBA) @ 4.3m. Has started the last 3. Save the other freebie.

          1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
            • 11 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Thanks, some different options there. I'll wait on today and tomorrow's games before jumping to conclusions.

            1. Jinswick
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              No probs. Also one of the STO defenders looks a good option given their form of late. Not having Butland is killing me! 🙂

    3. Jandal Tan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      The first two seem decent moves, but I'd hold DDG for a week longer as he has Norwich at home next week, so decent chance of a CS and, assuming you have 2fts, saves a hit for what are effectively moves for players that wont have any immediate points impact (ie bench fodder).

      1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers, my thoughts exactly. Didn't plan on doing a hit, should have mentioned that I have 2 FTs so was trying to ponder which one to not do.

    4. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      as jinsy says you don't need to do all 3.but i like all of them. DDG seems too expensive with all those injuries

      i'm looking at westwood > stanislas as well

      1. John Nerdelbaum
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        all 3 at the same time*

        you could cover stoke with wolly for gomez or ward?

      2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks. I think I'll keep DDG if it looks like the adult defenders will be back for next week.

        Gomez will be going this week no matter what. Wolly and Ward are tempting, but as above, the aim was to free up some more funds.

    5. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I think WW ----> Stanislas should be prioritised as you will actually want him to play with his form and xmas congestion coming up

  5. Tshelby
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    If kdb wasn't my captain this could have been that GW that turns around everything again in a good way.. why did I skip Kane at the last seconds

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      What if Spurs go unchanged after smashing Monaco?
      What if Kane elbows and gets sent off
      What if Kane scores an og
      What if Kane misses a pen

      1. Tshelby
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Mmmh yeah okay but it's the feeling that also counts for me, I would look forward too that game then 🙂 now I only can think about how uncool Pellegrini is

        1. Rhinos
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          He said City were tired.
          They have a big squad it was always a possibility

          1. Tshelby
            • 9 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Yeah I know it's my own fould just like putting the armband on Sturridge last week just some expensif moves for my OR I guess

    Hi guys.

    When we should know which team play in double gameweek?

    Tq.

    1. Clump
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Months away. Forget for now.

  8. Van Klinkert Delarosa
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Which one do you think is the best.

    Books : LOTR or Harry Potter?

    Films : LOTR or Harry Potter?

    1. Lateriser 12
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Books: Can't decide. Probably Harry Potter since its my first love.

      Films: Its easily LOTR. Harry Potter is crap.

      1. Camp No No
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I can't believe somebody seriously asks this (about the books). Harry Potter is basic children adventure book. LOTR is an epic tale, and hence better beyond comparison.

        1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Not really asking about the story of the book, I'm more interested in how the writer wrote the book as in imagination, technique of expanding the plot, twist etc.

          Although to categorize Harry Potter as a basic children adventure book are pretty daft.

          1. Camp No No
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            *is. And it isn't.

        2. Mata-Is-The-Juan
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          Age might have a huge factor. Book 1 + 2 firmly belong to the teen category but the subsequent books tackled matured subjects and you could argue that increase in maturity matched that of its readers at the time which is why it has such a loyal + vocal base.

          1. Camp No No
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            I mean rather technically. There's a massive difference between LOTR and HP. The former is in completely different literary style than not only HP but about every post-Tolkien book that is read in the same genre. That's what really distinguishes Tolkien.

            That said, I haven't read the whole HP, have no idea about the later parts. I was quite old for these books when they first were published, and the level of literature wasn't sufficient to catch my interest so much that I would have continued reading them.

            1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
              • 10 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              That's fair. I was in the same class as Harry so it works for me. I do see all these new 'Young Adult' novels and I do have a similar reaction that you did. They could probably be good but it just doesn't appeal to me.

        3. Amateur Pundit Zan
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          This

      2. Camp No No
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Sorry Latesirer, this was a reply fail to the OP, not meant to you personally. The fact that you appreciated HP books over LOTR ones just made this a really unfortunate reply fail.

    2. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Love the lotr films but of course the books are better. Not read or seen HP but surely books better

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Read question wrong. Not read HP so dunno but film aren't even a contest

    3. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Films every time for me. Whats' the point of watching a film where you already know the outcome as you've read the book and then slag it off as not being as good as the book? 😛

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        The problem for lotr is it's main draw is the world in which it's set. Imagining this world as you read the book is what blows our minds as kids. Once you've seen the film there's no more imagining needed

      2. Mata-Is-The-Juan
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        I think the advantage books have is individual readers are able to imagine whatever world the author creates. Doesn't even have to be fantasy novel. That makes it a more engaging experience IMO. With films, it's someone's interpretation so yeah most people will disagree with how one thing or another was represented.

        But I do agree for what it's worth, if the ending of major twists are a big deal then just watching the films is a reasonable stance.

        1. Wild Rover
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I was being a little 'tongue in cheek' but it does seem to me that many people waste a lot of time and money watching films just so they can say it wasn't as good as the books. Were they expecting it to be?

          1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
            • 10 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            That does bug me as well. That and the fixation on spoilers. I think the Internet just makes it someway for opinions to be heard and it's now much easier to claim to be able to do a better job especially as you'd be saying that to a bunch of strangers. Your mates will probably call you out if you claim you could have made a better James Bond film.

          2. Fitzy.
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            Some of the special features on the LOTR DVD sets are really enlightening as to how much trouble they went to to stay true to the books wherever possible. I think they had copies of the books on set all the time. They also acknowledge that there will be critics of the adaptions, but the films should be judged as films, not just compared to the books.

      3. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Personally think both medium (books and films) should be enjoy in different ways.

    4. Jafooli
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Books: Never read either

      Films: Never seen either

    5. A.T
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Books are always better. The only film I can think of which better than the book is the Godfather. Oh and shawshank redemption.

      1. Fitzy.

        A little Trivia Question ..... Who wrote the Shawshank Redemption, and what other Blockbuster was in the same book?

        1. John Nerdelbaum
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          stephen king and it had stand by me in it

          1. John Nerdelbaum
            • 11 Years

            and apt pupil as well

            1. John Nerdelbaum
              • 11 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              i would say stephen king adaptations vary quite considerably

              misery / shawshank >>>>>>. wtf was happening in tommyknockers

            2. Vaughany
              • 8 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              It was called Different Seasons. Great collection of 4/5 short stories/novellas. Still have my original copy. It's a shame that King is thought of by the majority as just a horror writer.

              Did a great fantasy novel called Eyes of the Dragon as well. Worth checking it out (if you haven't already).

              1. John Nerdelbaum
                • 11 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                yep, different seasons. trying to think what the 'winter' one was.

                yeah will do. Must have read most of his classics although haven't bothered with the most recent ones. He does seem to be churning them out

                1. Vaughany
                  • 8 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  'The Breathing Method'. It was the last one in the collection and after reading the first 3 it always seemed a bit average in comparison.

                  Me too TBH. I haven't read anything new by him for 10+ years. Eyes of the Dragon was written in the late early 80s/early 90s, which in my opinion, was his best period.

                  1. John Nerdelbaum
                    • 11 Years

                    ah that's it, yeah i remember that one. Not up to the standards of the others.

                    I did read Mercedes Man recently, more of a thriller, his writing style has completely changed

                Next Question.... What was the name of the author and the book of short stories that included one of Arnies 80's Blockbusters.

                  You've got me there! Any hints - which film?

                  well if we're still on the stephen king theme then he did write the running man.

                  Certainly predicted the future with that one

                  1. Artemis Titans
                    • 9 Years
                    8 years, 6 months ago

                    Technically incorrect, it wasn't Steven King it was his Pen Name.

                    1. Artemis Titans
                      • 9 Years
                      8 years, 6 months ago

                      The Running man was completely different to the Film too.

                        richard bachman and it had the walk in if I remember rightly?

                        • 9 Years

                        The Long Walk, Rage and something else. I read them in 1990. Still remember them. Thinner was good too.

                        didn't have the one with the guy protesting about the new freeway being built and his house would have been demolished?

      Lord of The Rings. Harry Potter is just Meh. Although I haven't read the HP books TBH. Films just were for kids. I assume the books are too.

    7. SouthCoastSaint
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Can't compare the books, both sets great.

      Lord of the Rings films better, Harry Potter films a bit hit and miss

    8. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Loved reading both so obviously the films were a disappointment

  11. Vaughany

    With the congested Christmas fixtures nearly here and the short time between GWs there is less time to spot trends and bandwagons. Its a good time to make up ground if you pick a decent differential.

    Who do you think is set to make decent returns over those 3/4 GWs?

    For me, Sigurdsson may be a good differential. Looked a threat against City yesterday and may have a new lease of life with Monk leaving.

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Wouldn't pick him over Ayew though

      1. Vaughany
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Fair enough. Couple of my rivals have Ayew though and I think Sigurdsson may be worth a punt.

        If he does well today I don't think he'll be a differential come Christmas 😉

    Guys still have Ayew and Mane... Who to ship out first?

    1. Pochecinno

      Mane.

      Ayew has good fixtures and hasn't been consistently blanking

    2. SouthCoastSaint
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Mane. We don't look great atm

    3. Jigger & Pony

    Vardy Lukaku Giroud

    I have a problem or two in defence, 7m in bank.

    Ward/Dan/Walker.for Galloway?

    Already transferred in Ali for Tadic so its a -4 hit but having Silva and KDB isn't the best strategy if Pellegrino isn't playing them... any suggestions?

    1. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years

      Nothing there is worth a hit imo

    2. Two is a Kompany three is a…

      KdB will play next game so take it easy.

  16. Pochecinno

    8 years, 6 months ago

    Bit of a benching dilemma for attackers next week. Early thoughts, guys?

    Butland (Hennessey)
    Rose Moreno Zouma (Ake, Bellerin)
    Silva Ozil Ramsey Mahrez Stanislas
    Aguero Lukaku Kane

    1. S.Kuqi
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Stanislas

    2. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      has to be stan the man

    3. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Cheers.

      I'm just worried having 4 attackers in the Ars/City game as well as Stanislas being on fire atm

  17. ralfb

    Keep barkley or get rid of?

    1. S.Kuqi

      Keep. Still good fixtures coming

    2. Optimus.

      keep if you don't have Lukaku 😉 I'm planing for Vardy+Barkley>Lukaku+Mahrez after CHE

    4. Oz lotto
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      he has a great overalll score... but look at the way it comes. so splotchy, here and there.

      no point getting rid unless as a luxury because he will make you hurt for it.

  18. 1zverGGademN
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 6 months ago

    Who is starting as RB for Arsenal today, lads? Debuchy or Bellerin? Arsenal fans around? Really hope for Belle to start!

    1. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Why wouldn't Bellerin start? He is first choice

      1. 1zverGGademN
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Dunno, mate.. maybe he could be rested after midweek game or just before festive period and Debuchy is fit isn't he?

    2. John Nerdelbaum
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      it would cap my weekend off if bellerin didn't play!

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Can't see Bell not playing, Arsenal need to win

    3. KOLASINA(C)
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Wenger will start Debuchy, because he has Nyom on the bench in FPL.

      • 13 Years

      Nyom will lose his assist and baps as his assist wasn't on target..

      1. Oz lotto
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        what do you mean? it wasn't an OG...

        1. Optimus.
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          The assist wasn't on target, he will lose the assist and baps as a result imo

          1. Oz lotto
            • 12 Years
            8 years, 6 months ago

            what do you mean "on target"... there is no requirement for it to be on target. he delivered the pass, the next touch went in.. there's no question if you ask me

            1. Jafooli
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              FPL Rules - 'In order for points to be awarded an assist must be on target'

                • 12 Years

                So an assist from a corner needs to be heading where exactly?

                1. Jafooli
                  • 12 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  FPL - 'Where the player intended to kick or pass it.'

                  Them the rules......

            2. Optimus.
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Secondly he assisted vs his parent club and if I'm correct that means he was ineligible to play hence him losing the assist with a possible ban incoming

              1. Oz lotto
                • 12 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                what parent club? Watford own him

            How long after the match will FPL still change a player's score? Until the GW is completed?

            1. Oz lotto
              • 12 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              well early doors silva had one taken away... but they posted a notification saying "in accordance with the FPL rules the points will stay with Silva"

            2. Optimus.
              • 13 Years
              8 years, 6 months ago

              Correct

                • 12 Years
                8 years, 6 months ago

                check my post on the the next page mate... it's the same situation as silva earlier in the year

                1. Optimus.
                  • 13 Years
                  8 years, 6 months ago

                  Link?

                  Without looking at your post I feel this is a completely different situation as the assist was against his parent club

                  1. Optimus.

    It's got to that point in the year that all the teams in mini league look the same bar one or two. Think I need to get some differentials in. Maybe get

    A) Alderwereld
    B) Mid other than KDB, Mahrez, Ozil, Coutinho, Barkley
    C) Kane (when I have Vardy, Lukaku, Ighalo)

    2. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Team looks great! I'd be tempted to save.

      Barkley was rubbish yesterday but has some good fixtures so probably not worth selling him yet.

      1. Spectrum-FFS Doubles Champ
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Do I need to squeeze Moreno in there do you think Rodallega?

        1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 6 months ago

          I'd monitor Liverpool today. We run hot and cold, especially at the back. Moreno is a very good pick, great chance of attacking returns as well as bonus. The fixtures look good and he won't be rotated over Christmas but considering we conceded 2 against Newcastle then I'd be a little skeptical.

          You could get him in for Kolarov. Don't think he will keep a CS against Arsenal even if he does start.

    3. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Bellering->Wollschild.

    4. blind faith
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Moreno or Coutinho maybe? But that might just be transferring for the sake of it!

    5. Pochecinno
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      I'd save. You have a good squad and 2FTs can go along way next week

      Delafool never stays on the pitch though. Courtinio - wait till he fully recovers from injury. No, in a word.

    Thoughts from the second half of Man City v Swansea (gave thoughts on first half last page). City appear to set up in a 4-1-4-1 formation after the break. They press higher up the pitch and look more threatening as a result. Swans respond by working the channels and also look more threatening. With the arrival of KDB, City seem to drop into a 4-4-1-1, cutting off the flanks for Swansea but dimishing their own threat. The City defence, which had previously held its line well, momentarily switch off and allow Gomis through. City then push men forward and get the winner. Swansea looked vulnerable at defending set pieces throughout.

      Where did KDB play when he came on for Silva?

        In the hole behind Bony/Iheanacho.

          OK. So straight swap for Silva. You think Silva will be in the hole when both are playing?

            My guess is yes if both are on the pitch together.

      It would have changed by now if it was going to. The press association has it down as an Ighalo goal, and that will be how it stays. He had a similar one vs West Ham too.

        For the avoidance of doubt, points awarded in-game are subject to change up until one hour after the final whistle of the last match of any given day. Once the points have all been updated on that day, no further adjustments to points will be made

    This season been a shambles so taking bigger and bigger risks. Next cab off the rank; Bony to Martial v Norwich

      Bony call had balls. I couldn't bring myself to do a one-week punt

      1. Rhinos
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 6 months ago

        Yeah but then Martial to kun so I quite like it

          Aha. Well at Stanislas did the job for me without having to get rid 😉

    Would you hold on to KDB on a WC? Or is he the most reliable City attacker over the Christmas period?

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 6 months ago

      Hold, very few players rotation proof in 2015

    Chances of Bellerin being rested?

    1. Rhinos
      • 10 Years

      5%. 10% if at home

    Is Smalling worth £6.8m?

    1. Thomas Magnum
      • 8 Years

      I'd rather De Gea

      In a word, no

    I've got KDB,so naturally easy disappointed when he came on for one point. But then noticed the leader in my ML captained him. Providedo young Kane and Ramsey deliverdo the goods today I'm going top of the league. I was nearly 100 behind a month ago.
