I need to sell Baird but the only other player that can come in for 3.9m is Bruce. I see that he went off after 52 minutes on Saturday, anybody know if he was injured?

No injury, QPR were down to 10 at that stage so no need for 3 CB's.

He'll be back starting next weekend IMO.

Southampton has good fixtures ahead.

Their current run isn't as good as it used to be but I wil go for one of them this week.

Berty will be back this weekend right?
He looks decent value compared to the others as his price has dropped. I am unsure about their form however as they seem to have run out of steam as of late. Also I haven't had a Southampton defender all season so I am thinking of remaining belligerent :pac:
Looking at fixtures for the rest of the season however it looks to me to be between a Southampton and a WBA defender though...Who would be the best WBA option; Dawson?

My thinking is that if - and let's all hope nothing like this happens - one of Aguero / Silva / Sanchez gets injured I will ignore my defence issues and bring attacking player in.

In a week where I can field only 8-9 players I would rather bring forward players who have a chance to score big than a defender.

My thinking was - my GK needed changing as he was definitely not playing + I want another defender in his team + not guaranteed starter anymore so moving him on was for the better.

I took a midfielder out as he is also not playing this GW and was only a 2 GW punt that didn't work out.

I would not move Silva, Sanchez or Aguero regardless of minor injury for 1 GW

Makes perfect sense.
I wish I could afford doing it now, sit back and relax.

With 5 non-starters and PVA in squad I can't afford any surprises.

Add to that that my defenders are getting 1-2 points on regular basis - I rather have 2 zero's in the back and a back up plan up front.

Cypher_sounds · 23-02-2015 1:16pm

Done Wisdom to McAuley will still only field 10 at most. Thinking ahead i might take a -4 do Punch and Sturridge to Eriksen and Austin for the dgw.

Dawson seem to be nailed on now (played 90 minutes of the last 4 league games), is 0.6m cheaper and has scored 2 goals this season to Lescott's 1. maybe I am missing something though?

Sorry - didn't look at his price. 5.0 is a bit too much.
I wouldn't know much about WBA squad tbh.

Lescott is nailed to start. Not sure about Dawson.

Can see where your coming from!

I moved on Wisdom - lost his place

And had Moreno & PVA in my line up who both came on & contributed 1 pt -

My other defenders are Kompany, Haidara & Bellerin (who is now injured)

I will be left with Kompany & Moreno (who both play against each other) - not expecting anything here

And then Haidara for Newcastle - again defensively not great - not expecting anything here.

Bellerin & PVA - will be benched as I can't see either playing 60+ minutes.

I'll gradually weed them out and upgrade to guaranteed starters - one of my big money attackers is on the chopping block!

I'd expect Bellerin to play, he wasn't dropped, he's coming back from injury and Chambers was awful against Palace.

Brought in Toby. Hope he starts.

Can you not hold austin and sell somebody else. I wouldn't take austin out if you plan on getting him back in.

My front line is Kane, Austin and Aguero.

I suppose I can field the beautifully unconventional 5-4-1 next week if I get rid of PvA, Wisdom and Terry! That would be a -4 and one way of justifying it could be that Chelsea defence isn't as reliable without Matic protecting them? Thoughts?

Lemlin · 23-02-2015 2:45pm

4-3-3 for me next week.

Foster
Baird PVA Jones Bellerin
Cork Johnson Sanchez
Aguero Giroud Sturridge
Benched: Myhill, Terry, Eriksen, Hazard.

Plan would be to take Terry out for Alder and field him in place of Baird. That'll leave me enough cash to go Giroud to Kane and Johnson to Silva the following week, leaving me with a front line of:

Sanchez Hazard Silva Eriksen
Sturridge Aguero Kane

SantryRed · 23-02-2015 2:49pm

My current team for this week is:

Panti
Hutton-PVA-Wisdom-Bertrand
Silva-Cazorla-Downing-Di Maria
Defoe-Aguero

Subs: Elliot, Terry, Kane, Hazard

In all likelihood, I will have 9 players playing but I have 2 FTs and 3m ITB to put to use.

I've come up with the following plan that I'd like people's thoughts on.

GW27: Wisdom -> Dawson (WBA)
GW28: Hazard and Defoe -> Eriksen and Sturridge
GW29: Downing -> Cork (SWA)
GW30: Di Maria -> Hazard
GW31: PVA -> Anderwereild

Ok, I know full well that this plan will probably change, especially after the FA Cup quarter finals take place. I'll also probably take a 4 point hit and make the 29 and 30 week transfers in GW29, purely to get Hazard back in ASAP.

I think this is the best way to utilise both the limited teams playing this week and the DGW in GW28.

Anyone got any thoughts?

sheroman01 · 23-02-2015 3:46pm

I'm actually thinking of going down a slightly alternative route for this double GW by bringing in Austin. Thoughts?

I'd defintely use it as a chance to get rid of Pva and wisdom and if your looking to play 11 I think taking out Terry over austin is a wise move. Your saving yourself a 4 pt hit by keeping austin. The key this week is having a good capt option you have aguero and I assume an arsenal mid. I wouldn't get too caught up with getting eleven players unless you want to get rid of lads anyway. The week after you will be able to have Kane austin and eriksen without a hit which will give you an edge.

internet_user · 23-02-2015 5:11pm

Not really sure what to do this week or going forward really, any thoughts? 2FTs and 0.9 itb. Thinking of getting rid of PVA for either Bruce or Dawson to give me 11 players for next week. I'm happy enough to keep krul and pelle for this week. Thinking of doing pelle to Austin for the dgw. Any ideas?

Krul
Bellerin cresswell kompany Hutton PVA
Adm Sanchez sterling
Aguero pelle

Myhil albrighton Kane hazard

Arbitrary · 23-02-2015 5:13pm

Bruce in, Wasi out.

I'll be going 4 4 2 providing PVA starts, if not, so be it as I'm not taking a points hit. Anyone I bring in has get at least 5 points for a return.

It's the best time to take a points hit if you are looking to reshape your time and weed out the non-starters!

spock. · 23-02-2015 5:43pm

I've done Terry-->Bertrand and am doubling up on saints defence. If everyone starts(unlikely), I should have a decent squad next week:
Krul
Bellerin Toby Bertrand Wollsheid
Silva Santi Sanchez ADM
Aguero Ings
(Foster-PVA Hazard* Kane*)

Not well prepared for the DGW though...
Will probably just do one of Sanchez, Santi or ADM to Eriksen.

Arbitrary · 23-02-2015 5:58pm

Chesty08 wrote: »

But there's no panic and like I mentioned the replacement has to bag 5 points to make it profitable. I can afford to have the risk of one non starter in my squad. My backline is made up of...

Foster - Krul

PVA - Terry - Dawson - Clyne - Bruce

If PVA makes another cameo appearance, it could actually work out perfectly assuming Sunderland concede the few goals you'd expect them to.

I have a plan for major team surgery but it's still too early to start making my planned changes.

will Olsson go back into wba team and at the expense of who? I am thinking of bringing dawson in

I was just looking at WBA myself. Isn't Olsson a CB? If he were to take anyone's place it would surely be McAuley.

This is why I went for Dawson last week

Alanhooly · 23-02-2015 7:29pm

My side is pretty bad this week, probably like most.

Krul

Bruce PVA Bertrand Wollscheid

Walters Sanchez (c) Walcott Boyd

Aguero Defoe

My plan is save FT this week and then in gwk 28 do:

PVA -> Rose
Walcott - > Eriksen
Defoe - > Austin

4 point hit. All good?

Taking out Eriksen is a bit short sighted with a double gw coming up. Surely better just to bench him for one week.

He's going straight back in for the DGW. Would have had 3 players on the bench otherwise - Eriksen, Hazard and Kane. At this stage it's all about maxing your points.

Necronomicon · 23-02-2015 7:59pm

Right now my thinking is PvA and Baird out, Dawson and Wollscheid in with my 2 FTs. That should give me a definite starting 10, with the hopes that Bellerin returns to the starting line-up for a full XI.

hufpc8w3adnk65 · 23-02-2015 8:01pm

Ive 5 players with no game in week 27
Yun
Hazard
Zouma
Erikson
Kane

Not sure what too do only have 1 transfer. Any feedback/help would be great

sheroman01 · 23-02-2015 8:30pm

Do people think PVA might regain his place, or at least make an appearance?

Zouma for someone would be the only transfer that would interest me there seeing as the other 3 have a dgw the next week and I wouldn't ever get rid of Hazard.

Cheap options: Haidara, Wilson, McShane, Dawson, Bellerin etc.
You could always get him back soon.

If your looking at maxing your points hazard out rather than eriksen is a better move. Get hazard back in a few weeks. I'm not saying taking hazard out is a good move but it's a better 3 gw move than taking eriksen out imo.

InishGael · 23-02-2015 10:23pm

Anyone any insight into Hull back line. Funds low & looking to switch Baird to someone that's likely to play next week. Prob be bench fodder after that. Basically Bruce or McShane?

If I only do zouma I'll only have 10 players this week

Mr. Guappa · 24-02-2015 12:13am

I am in the nice position of having 12 possible starters and 2FT this GW. Bellerin and PVA are the main doubts:

Foster (Myhill)
Jones, Wollscheid, Bellerin, (PVA, Terry)
Alexis, di Maria, Walters, Boyd, (Hazard)
Aguero, Giroud, Defoe

Currently considering bringing in Robert Green for Myhill -
Gives a good rotation with Foster for the next six GW, then one is guaranteed to play GW33 and the other will have a DGW in GW34/37. Would then transfer out the non DGW keeper around GW35 for a keeper with a HHAH finish.

The main drawback is that QPR keep very few clean sheets. Bringing in Guzan would allow similar rotation and a future DGW also, but he may come under pressure from Given. A Villa keeper does however rotate perfectly with Foster, saving me a future transfer.

I suppose the initial question is how will Green fare in the DGW 28, (Arsenal H, Spurs H) and is he a better bet than Foster (Villa A) or Guzan (WBA H) for that GW?

You'd be doing a minus 4 for a player who you may not want anyway whilst replacing a player who will likely play twice (maybe yun won't start both games?) or Hazard who you'd likely want to get back in again later (for a higher price). A lot of people won't be fielding full teams this week, it's not the end of the world. The main question you have to ask yourself is, is doing so worth -4 points, will that change get you +4 points over the foreseeable future than if you don't do it.

iroced · 24-02-2015 1:35am

Have Terry, Hazard & kane to bench.

Lucas red flagged. Is he definitely out? FPL site claims he should be back on the 21st of February... which was 3 days ago :rolleyes:.
Baird to replace.
And maybe PvA too.

Have 2 FT.

Silva rising tonight brings the temptation to get him in for Hazard. But I'm not sure I want to lose £0.4m on Hazard and use 2 transfers on him. I did it for Sanchez and up to now it failed. I think I'm flexible enough :pac:...

I guess GW27 transfers must be done with GW28 in mind. Eriksen in for Cazorla and maybe Austin for Giroud are on my mind for the double. These 2 transfers would actually see me free up £1.8m. I currently have £2.1m in bank. Here are the options I thought about

Baird -> cheap def & Lucas -> £6m mid e.g. Siggy
Baird -> mid priced (£5m) def & Lucas -> £5m mid e.g. Moses
Baird -> premium def (e.g. Bertrand) & keep Lucas (saving a transfer for GW28 and counting on 2 pointers from every cheap midfielders)
Any of these 3 options + PvA -> cheap def

What do you guys think?

It's 5am so I'm not exactly thinking as straight as I could be but I wouldn't be so sure about getting Austin in. His DGW I think are against Arsenal and Spurs. His form over the last 8 or 9 matches hasn't been that great either. I'm just not so sure he's that good an option and Giroud could easily outscore him in his one match.

Bertie? I'm thinking about bringing him in but am going to wait for news on Alderweireld. I'm also hesitant as Southamptons form will fall off v soon I think. It's fast becoming squeaky bum time!! I reckon we've got most of what we're going to get from Southampton defenders but in saying that it's still very very difficult to ignore their form so far this season. Alderweireld is not the same investment risk as Bertie

Ya that's a good point. I'll move zouma out. Only my first season playing and I can't ask my buddies for advice as were in a pay league!
Who do people think is the best option for Zouma whos 4.6 million?
