Did you see them against Hull ? If Hull had a striker they would have won by 2 or 3. That striker they have is the reason Norwich went down. Can't believe they bought him. Worst premiership striker I've seen in a long time.

This is the truth
West ham were shocking shocking bad vs hull
Could not believe my eyes
Carroll was the ultimate fixtures over form disaster signing
One more game for him all the same

By the way mike dean is Reffing the Spurs game

Oh yeah, good point. Mbokani reminds me of Ade Akinbiyi when he was at Leicester. Utterly useless

3 Swansea players, shudder at the thought. Can you do Costa to Ibra and downgrade anywhere else? I did Capoue & Costa to Ibra & De Roon this week.
Edit, BTW I'm chancing Kane to keep him 1 more week.

Costa looks like to drop tonight

I've got less than an hour to decide.

Alli to Walcott for -4 ? - considering every time I see Walcott play he looks pure tripe but their fixtures are just so good.

Edit - I'd nearly go for Iwobi

Özil not an option? Alongside Sanchez I'd say the only real safe option in terms of starts

I passed on Walcott. I know he pops up with goals and gets chances but he looks so useless whenever I watch them. I've never owned Ozil since I started playing but you're correct in that he is the only other option.

Good chance I'll get Iwobi in early new year.

Lemlin

Kane out, Ibra in. I didn't have Kane for Swansea so he has been a poor transfer.

Ozil is definitely more nailed on but think people are underestimating Walcott a bit - he's started 16 out of 17 games (missed Sunderland through injury) and has 8 goals and 3 assists. He'll probably start one game on the bench over Christmas but think he is looking pretty safe as first choice for Arsenals good run over the next month.

I've got all 3 - Sanchez, Ozil and Walcott - so my fate is very much in their hands.

@FPLStag "Walcott has taken more shots inside the box (13) than any other player in the last 4GWs (Defoe, Kane & Rondon 10 each)"

Dang. Probably would have taken him in for a -4 if I'd know this 12 hours ago before the price rise.

Is Randolph nailed? I'm sick of Foster not keeping any clean sheets.

If it was an absolute given that you were bringing in Costa for Kane next week, would it be worth bringing in Batshuayi for Kane this week for a 4 point hit as a stopgap and having Batshuayi as your transfer out to Costa instead of Kane?

Or to frame the question differently, is Batshuayi worth 4 points more than Kane this week? I suppose theres 2 different potential answers to that question too, one for if I captained Batshuayi aswell, and one for if I didn't.

Spurs have been awarded 5 pens this year which I think is a league high
Saints have conceded 4 which is 3/4th highest

No, I wouldn't do that even if I knew Batshuayi would 100% start: http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2016/12/22/say-what-31/

I'm not sure what I hope for with Haz(c). I don’t think he's done well at false 9 before

I'd hesitatedly go Amat, although he was dire against boro so not sure if he'll be dropped

Brunt for his attacking threat.

And then Cedric for his attacking threat
Amat should not figure in this debate to be honest
Brunt on set pieces and possibly pens
If he were to miss out I'd have Cedric next
And Amat last
Always last

Theres a goal in Amat from a set piece one of these days though....

I'm secretly now thinking of playing him ahead of smith after all of that
I think he will be dropped though so won't make any difference

I think Brunt has a greater attacking threat than Cedric. He seems to be involved in the majority of West Brom's attacks whereas I think Cedric carries less of an attacking threat plus Southampton are one of the lowest scorers in the division this season.
