    I've no Liverpool players and this is what I can afford to do: Moreno + Henderson/Sterling or Henderson + Sterling?

    What would you do?

    Who do people think are the strongest DGW candidates from Liverpool & Chelsea

    I'm concerned Moreno won't play 180 minutes so was leaning towards Mignolet. Then Sterling & Henderson as my other 2 pool players.

    Sturridge I assume isn't on anyone's radar? Coutinho maybe?

    For Chelsea I was thinking Hazard, Fabregas and Terry. Don't know if Costa will be fit and don't want to tie up funds in two Chelsea defenders for future transfer plans

    For Leicester I think Schlupp, Cambiasso (based on advise on here) and Vardy are the way to go

    Open to any better suggestions!

    Obviously, I'm wildcarding to do this!

    I have two FTs and my wildcard.

    What's I'm thinking of doing is using the two FTs to bring myself to 8 DGW players (3 x Chelsea, 3 x Liverpool, 2 x Leicester) and then using my wildcard to fix things up for the run in.

    Would anyone like to talk me out of that?

    Chelsea: 1. Hazard 2. Ivan 3. Fab
    Liverpool: 1. Sterling 2. Cout 3. Skrtel
    Leicester: 1. Vardy 2. Albrighton 3. Schlupp - Schlupp will prob be most popular of 3

    Top 3 IMO :p

    Sounds good to me

    Hi Folks,

    I'm undecided (again) this week. I see Hull also have a DGW this week. My defenders are Alex Bruce (DGW) Clyne, Bertrand, Janmaat and Azpilicueta (DGW).

    I also have mid- Hazard, Mata, Silva, Ozil, Fabregas,
    Forwards- Vardy, Giroud, Kane.

    Was initially going to Ozil -> Sterling/ Coutinho. Might to Silva-> Sterling/Coutinho instead on account of Silvas potential injury.

    Do people think Sterling will get 180 mins? Also would he be playing in a striker type role?

    Also would it be worth sacrificing Janmaat/ Clyne in the hope Bruce plays 180mins? Was initially going to bench Bruce until I saw he has DWG.

    Edit: Also meant to say I have one FT and 0.5 banked

    Agree with rest, but swap Albrighton for Cambiasso.

    Think Albrighton offers more attacking threat if he can nail down the spot, should be ok for dgw. Cambi only really offers set pieces for 0.5 more

    looking for advice on my wildcard team please.

    DeGea myhill
    Terry skrtel huth Bertrand wollshcied
    Sterling Henderson hazard fabregas bentaleb
    Aguero Austin Kane

    With 2.8 itb, 7 dgw players and the idea is the following game week to transfer out either sterling or fab for Sanchez. Honestly don't m tempted to leave fab out my team and just stick Sanchez in and just have 6 dgw players. Any advice thanks!


    De Gea to Scmeichel for DGW.
    Austin to Vardy?

    Is albrighton playing regularly ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,492 ✭✭✭OneColdHand


    Re: Remy, it's a frustrating situation, but I'm going to keep him, and then next week switch to Giroud.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Really starting to question what to do in relation to this DGW. Have 3 Chelsea players at the minute and 1 free transfer. Thinking of taking a -4 for two Liverpool players (Skrtel and one of Sterling/Henderson/Coutinho for Dawson and Silva/Eriksen). Will then hold on to these players for the following week when Liverpool play QPR at home, before using my double transfer to probably downgrade Skrtel to a 4m mid and using the excess cash to bring in Sanchez. I also want Giroud in my team ASAP after this week so I really don't know what to do :pac: I don't want to over commit on this DGW but under committing could cost me big time.

    I'd love to just make a transfer now and be done with it but going to hold off until new about Silva comes through so that I can determine whether Eriksen gets the boot or gets yet another reprieve from my team!

    Cheers for the feedback

    Future transfers mean I can't afford Ivan over Terry despite knowing he is a better bet

    Form wise Coutinho is way down on Henderson. Mignolet is a cheaper way into the defence for me (cue Skrtel to score a hat trick!)

    I would agree with Leicester if Albrighton is a nailed on starter. Has been getting his game lately alright

    Decisions, decisions!

    Fantastic position to be in! I need to play the wildcard to bring in the DGW players but would definitely do what you are doing if I were in that position

    Murphy's law, if you get out of Remy, he will play and assist/score more than his replacement, seen it happen before!

    I'll let you take one for the team and transfer him out then! ;)

    I hugely tempted roll the dice and go -8 and load up with 8 dgwers.

    Related question....who would you play next week. Bolasie home to Hull or Kane away to (13 clean sheets at home) Southampton.

    Bolaise all day long for me, that Hull game could be a goal fest.

    Pfft, -8s are child's play. Bolasie all day, I'll be interested to see how many bench Kane this GW.

    I'm benching kane
    possibly selling for vardy but that would mean benching mata so I'm undecided on that one ......not sure vardy will outscore mata by 4 to be honest

    We'll good to know I'm not nuts looking at benching Kane. Sometimes lost far inside my FPL brain it's hard to tell the crazy from the genius!

    Now, what about benching Bertrand for a Leicester defender? Probably not worth a hit I suppose... :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,734 ✭✭✭zarquon


    Wildcard played, 9 Double gw'ers. Had 4 injuries and a game time doubt over another so it really was the perfect time to play a wildcard. A monster gameweek like the last one could see many wildcarders jump well up the table.

    What 2 are your single gw players aguero and Kane.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,734 ✭✭✭zarquon

    Yes, it's too risky not to play either. Both are capable of double digit scores on their day.

    Some sunderland and arsenal coverage too on the bench for GW 37. Should be setup nicely for the run in.

    With Sakho out will Lovren play? Can't afford Moreno.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 750 ✭✭✭Irish94


    I have two free transfers, but I am planning on using my wildcard before Saturday. I presume, if I use my wildcard, my two free transfers will not carry to the next gameweek?

    David Nugent is a major doubt to be fit to face his former club Burnley after picking up a calf injury during the warm-up on Saturday #LCFC

    What a disaster Nugent has been. I think I'll bring in Austin now, my plan is to have a front 3 of Benteke Austin Giroud for the last few weeks.
