    5 at the back this week as benching Fraser and Rich due to fixtures and Diagana is my 5th mid?

    AWB, VVD, Alonso, Doherty, Dunk

    Or play one of above 🙂

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Rich over Dunk/VVD

  3. Don Kloppeone
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    The scenes on here when Sterling is benched and Haz bags a hattie

    1. Bees4Lyf
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I’ll just quit for the season then

    2. lugs
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      one way or the other Haz is gonna troll either his keepers or his sellers 😆

      1. Don Kloppeone
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        100%. I’m a keeper and also kept Salah and got in Sané and in my gut I fed I’m going to be punished on all 3 😆

        1. lugs
          • 7 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          very high ceiling on all 3 though if things work out, good luck 🙂

          1. Don Kloppeone

            You too mate

  4. The Yorkshire Pirlo
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Got the exact funds, stick or twist?

    Salah, Martial > Sterling, Sane

    1. Pegboy
      • 14 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Same. I think I'm doing it for a -4

    2. Ronnie Hotdog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I'd do it. Sterling & Sane look like they're building a good partnership.

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I don’t know. Feel like it’s one of those ones that you will regret.

    4. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Good God no

    5. The Yorkshire Pirlo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Seems like everyone’s split, I’m seriously 50/50 and can’t do it after price change.

    6. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Not for me. Either of the latter two could be benched

  5. Ross From Friends
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    can someone please post the latest price changes?

      1. Ross From Friends
        • 6 Years

        thank you kind sir

  6. Bat Man

    Play Balbuena or rich

    1. Marquis-Cha-Cha
      • 9 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Rich

  7. Boomerang V
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    If you had Sterling, Sané and Aguero, who would you captain?

    1. Bat Man
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Sterling

  8. Ravager
    • 9 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Any suggestions for this bunch?

    2 FT 0.0 ITB

      Considering swallowing my transfer...

  11. TerryVenables
    • 8 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Everyone should sell Hazard for Sane. Seen too much terrible advice on here to not let everyone know.
    Hazard isn’t fit, on a terrible run of form and Chelsea are bad at the moment.

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Terrible form?

      1. TerryVenables
        • 8 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Yes.

      2. Brehmeren
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        No returns in 5 matches? Yes.

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          4 he missed one due to injury that his team won 4-0. Got an assist in the following game in a sub appearance back from injury. Blanked against UTD and a brilliant Spurs on the day. Playing Fulham at the bridge now. Tell yourselves what Ye want to make Ye feel better. Few weeks ago he was a season keeper! Still owned by 40%

          1. Brehmeren
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            I own him (for 6 gw), but have zero trust in his current form. He is a class player, but hasnt shown any form recently to warrant a lot of confidence.

        2. Ruth_NZ
          • 9 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          That's not form. That's "hasn't scored many points recently". Those are entirely different things.

          I don't need anyone's advice regarding Hazard but if I did I wouldn't be going to the Venables man. 😉

          1. Brehmeren
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            I certainly hope you're right. I've just been let down by him so many times in the past, and feel like I'm hitting that patch again.

          2. TerryVenables
            • 8 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            What’s your rank? Bet I’m a minimum 10k above you.

            1. fedolefan
              • 10 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              If only seasons ended after 13 gameweeks.

              1. TerryVenables
                • 8 Years
                5 years, 9 months ago

                You’ll never be ahead of me at any point this season. You weren’t last season either.

    2. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Joint second highest scoring midfielder. Yes, no returns in 5 games but he was injured for one of those and played half an hour in another (on return), plus an in form Spurs away from home?

      GW3-8 when Hazard delivered 7 goals everyone was saying he's the cream of Europe. Has that now changed? Class is permanent.

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Sounds more like trying to convince themselves. “Terrible advice” people advising to keep for FUL ? The only advice I’ve seen saying that was IF he was declared fit also.

      2. Brehmeren
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Hazard is class. But as a fantasy player, his returns certainly aren't permanent. He can save you season, or be the biggest troll.

        1. bigbudgie
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          We know this, he's the same every season, but always one of the top points scorers. Having held him through the last 5 where he's blanked and knowing his troll status...you know the risks of getting rid of him when he's been on through a dry spell...

          1. Brehmeren
            • 14 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Fingers crossed! Was burnt badly last season, which is still lingering.

      Look at the FFS twitter feed - you need 45 points to qualify.

    Bench Mitrovic or Camarasa?

    Wilson & Pereyra > Arnautovic and ...?

    A) Fernandinho

    C) Townsend

    1. Krafty Werks

  16. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Grateful for any help received! Wanna sell Mahrez so bad. Cheers!

    Should I go:
    A) Mahrez+Hazard--->Sterling+Martial?(-4)
    B) Something else

    Rui,Ryan
    Alonso,Robbo,Mendy,Bennett,WB
    Mane,Hazard,Mahrez,Rich,Billing
    Kun,Arnie,Wilson

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      At least prioritise getting rid of Mendy.

      Mendy to Laporte seems logical and then if you really want to move inn mahrez you can but probably don’t need to yet.

      1. cravencottage
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Agree- get rid of Mendy and maybe Mahrez> Sterling or Sane

        1. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
          • 10 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Thanks! Can't get Sterling, don't have funds:/ Sane might be okay

      2. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Mahrez is killing me. He has cost me alot, like alot. I could shift Mendy next week probably cuz I got WB and Bennett with okay fixtures this week.

  17. Pegboy
    • 14 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Patricio (Hamer)
    Alonso Robertson Doherty AWB (Dunk)
    Salah Hazard Martial Richarlison (Stephens)
    Kun Arnie (Success)

    1FT £0m

    a) Save
    b) Salah > Sterling (Kun > Kane next week)
    c) Salah + Martial > Sterling + Sane (-4)

    I've still got a WC, so likely to activate it relatively soon.

    1. The Yorkshire Pirlo
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      What you reckon you’re going with?

      I’m looking at C like you, but that means the only way to do Aguero > Kane next week, would be to downgrade Richarlison to someone like Brooks.

      1. Pegboy
        • 14 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        That's what's making me lean B. Plus it saves the hit. Martial also has decent fixtures.

  18. Andy Mac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Hmmm, just clocked this as an option....

    Haz & Martial > Sane & Alli

    Would give midfield of:
    Sane - Mane - Alli - Dilva - Richarlison

    Do it???

    1. cravencottage
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Yes. Alli has great fixtures but is playing deeper this year. Still, looks good

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Cheers mate! Would you stick with Martial then for another week then??

    2. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Nope

      1. Andy Mac
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Why not? Who would you keep?

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          I just don’t agree with the masses on here selling Salah/Haz/Martial this gw. I might be biased because I’ve held onto them. I’m holding off on the spurs mids for another 2 weeks until we see more.

        2. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 11 Years
          5 years, 9 months ago

          Also I was assuming it was a -4 right?

          1. Andy Mac
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            5 years, 9 months ago

            Fair points and yes would be for a -4. Martial I still think is worth hanging on to but I’m really doubting Haz playing 90 mins and Sane next best alternative for the money....

            1. FPL Blow-In
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 11 Years
              5 years, 9 months ago

              No Salah or Haz in midfield for caotaincy options then either.

  19. cravencottage

    On WC- Welcome all comments:

    Lloris Hamer
    Alonso TAA Laporte Schindler Balbuena
    Sterling DSilva Siggy Brooks Kenedy
    Mitrovic Kane Lacazette

    Could replace Laca,Brooks with Ings Mane?
    Siggy or Anderson ( great fixtures) ?

    Thanks

    1. Pilgrim62
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Lloris to Fabi, and Laca to Auba

    2. Pilgrim62
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Look at my WC team below. Any comments?

  20. Bat Man
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Everyone is clamoring to get Kane next week. If Salah is going to play he’s a great captaincy option and I’d almost rather hold to get Auba in gw 16 when there are no clear options

    1. lugs
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      not me , my number 1 rule this year is not to get Kane after trolling me so many times last year with captaincy blanks

  21. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Hit worthy somewhere?

    Hennessy
    TAA, Doherty, WB
    Salah, Sterling, Hazard, Martial
    Arnie, Wilson, Jimenez

    Patricio, Fraser, Coleman, Trippier 0ft

  22. FPL Dakes

    Hi all - any new comments on Haz fitness?

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years

      Im wondering the same

    2. Duffy Dunk
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I've been looking for something but there doesn't seem to be.
      As a Haz owner, I feel like waiting for tomorrow's press conferences, just in case Pep hints anything on Sterling/Sane not playing.
      What's your status?

  23. nico05
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Hi everyone its my first season on here I wondered if anyone might take a quick look at my team and give me any obvious suggestions of transfer to make I started well but my ranking is dropping this past few weeks.

    Alisson
    Balbeuna Lindelöf Robertson Doherty ( wan-bissaka)
    Hazard Salah Richarlison Pogba (billing)
    Aguero Anie (kamara)

    I have 0.5 in the bank, and 2 transfer available. Obviously Lindelöf been injured needs to come out I'm just struggling to decide what to do.
    The transfer I was considering is Alisson-Hennessey & Pogba - Sane
    Thank you for reading

    1. Chilavert
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      good move

  24. Pilgrim62
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Any comments on my WC team from GW 15:
    Fabi, 4.0
    Alonso, TAA, WB, Trippier(if fit), Peltier
    Sané, Sterling, Sigurd, 4.4,4.4
    Arni, Kane, Auba

    1. nico05
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Looks really good to me, strong in all areas

    2. Duffy Dunk
      • 8 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Very weak bench for such a busy part of the season.
      Auba->Laca to improve Peltier or one of the 4.4 twins?

      1. Pilgrim62
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Sounds reasonable

    3. Bat Man
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Consider downgrading Sigurd to Rich for a better sub in midfield. Would rather do that vs. downgrading Auba

  25. Dušan Citizen
    • 10 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Sane or Sterling - doesn't even matter. They both will be rested in one of next 2 matches before Chelsea. As well as Kun.

    1. GreennRed
      • 12 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Why?

    2. Pilgrim62
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I have both. Do you think they will be rested at the same time?

      1. FPL Blow-In
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Doubt it

      2. Dušan Citizen
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        Don't think so. But Bernardo and Mahrez on the wings is an option.

    3. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      I agree. I think the fact Sterling can play #9 also helps if Jesus is still not fully fit though.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        • 10 Years
        5 years, 9 months ago

        True that.

    4. bigbudgie
      • 10 Years
      5 years, 9 months ago

      Aguero back to 60 minutes then subbed this week

  26. Gt1996
    • 7 Years
    5 years, 9 months ago

    Chances that Shaqiri starts this weekend?

  27. Abusive_Sgt_Daelrhos
    • 10 Years

    Sterling Mane Richarlison Schurrle Camarasa

    *a few players I'm aware will get rotated so tried to still have a reasonably solid bench*

    Living in Australia, I'm out tonight for a friend's birthday (I don't really want to make a drunk transfer) and will be asleep when the deadline hits. Therefore, I pretty much have to make a call before the final pressers.

    A) Hazard to Sane
    B) Save

    Patricio
    Alonso/Robertson/Laporte/Wan-B
    Salah(VC)/Hazard/Richarlison
    Aguero(C)/Arnie/Jimenez

    Bench: Hamer/Bennett/Camarasa/Fraser

    1FT, 0.1 ITB, still have my WC.
