Gameweek 22 Matchday Thread

Scorpion Sting

The hectic festive schedule concludes with a double gameweek for Tottenham and West Ham. The question on everyone's lips is whether or not Kane will be fit for Swansea. I was going to TC him but think I'll hold off now.

Happy New Year everyone.

I'll buy Harry Kane all the lemsip he may need today to get him right for this GW.

In Harry we trust

bezuaua

I really need to feel "forum trust" to TC hurricane... HAPPY NEW YEAR

This is totally one of those weeks where if we all jump on board and TC Kane he'll play ten minutes of the first game and then get subbed after an hour in the second and then if we all hold off with the TC he'll score a brace in each game and we'll all be like wtf where we thinking.

I've been 50/50 whether to pull the trigger on Kane TC all day. Still don't know what I'll do.

0.5 in the bank.

Contemplating Ricky to Lanzini for another hit. Or maybe Gomes to Adrian and play him. I just don't think I want that many West Ham players.

Another Free Hitter here...would have taken a mega hit to sort my team out for this GW otherwise...

Have been hovering between 200K and 300K for a few weeks so hoping my slightly batsh1t crazy team will give me a boost before the regular flutes return next week.

Happy New Year to all here...easily the best forum on Boards imho

I’ve made 3 transfers already.. brought in Ogbonna, Adrian and Alli for Jones, De Gea, Richardilson - if I played my free hit now are these transfers reversed?

And would I have the 2 free transfers I was carrying at start of gameweek or would I be back to one the following week?

As far as I understand, yes. Your team reverts back to the way it was at the start of the gameweek.
Edit: Completely misread your question. Just 1 ft for next week. You lose the saved one.

Not worth playing the Free Hit, you're only on a -4, average this week will be -8.

Why? There are that many injury doubts, -16 could be perfect. You'll likely break even on one of those -4s if you bring in a DGW player for Salah (for instance). And that's if that players does absolutely nothing.

-16 is always risky, but could very easily work a treat.

alchemist33

Absolutely torn on whether to TC Kane or not, but I've learned that in FPL situations where my head is fried, the best option is to sit tight. We probably won't get a better pair of matches than this, but I'm sitting tight.

Glad Swansea got 2 goals late on in Watford match. Spurs won't be taking it too easy. Only one FT and no spurs atm. Is -8 mad?

I assumed it was this week's riff on the weekly Free Hit Activated.

Jeez tough one that
I'd almost lean towards kenny

Can't wait to see teams after deadline in my main league
1130 deadline after NYE is sure to catch a few
Kane yellow flag will put them off buying him in (only 3 teams in top half have him )

Hope he delivers and I'll be back in business

Elliott: Mee - DCL - Kenny

5 DGWs - I did always like that David Moyes, he sure as hell can organise a defence. Plus that man management with Arnie is quite something.

Alli and Kane, innit!

However if Salah isn't injured, then I have made a huge mistake.

No chance of Forster starting after the other guy kept a clean sheet?

Risks taken - Double West Ham defence, Kane TC and no Aguero. Could be a great week or an absolute disaster. Have a slender 11 point lead in my main league.

Necronomicon

2FT and -12 to sort out a big mess, leaves me with:

Pope
Kenny Ogbanna Dunk
Son Salah Sterling Arnautovic
Kane Aguero Firmino

Elliot, Kelly, TPT, Mbemba

Pity I'm unlikely to have full strength after such a big hit, but didn't want to take the value hit and more points on Mo. Normal captaincy on Kane.

Trimm Trabb

Adrian

Ogbonna Alonso Klavan

Alli Hazard Salah Sane RLC

Kane (TC) Morata

Subs: Quaner, Edwards, Long

As I remember it games played on this date have been low scoring traditionally. With Salah would be nice if Sane gets another run out for City but not too hopeful - going to be relying on my super low budget bench.

Taking a risk on Kane triple captain - don’t think a cold that had him out of training Saturday could still be bad enough to keep him out of a match Tuesday night.

eh i dunno

Already on a -4. Worth it to do Morata to Aguero for a -8 or hold?

Thinking the same.... If Kane doesn't play does the TC transfer to the VC or just go back to my chips to use?

Transfers to vice.

I would do it but then I just hate Morata. He could get a hat-trick but Aguero v Watford compared to Morata v Arsenal. I would.

Which 1 to start out of Christensen, RLC or Kenny ???

elefant

Took a -4 at the last minute to get a doubtful Salah out for Eriksen. If Salah doesn't play he just needs to get the 4 appearance points to even that out, and Spurs v Everton is a much nicer fixture than Pool v City next weekend.

Been reading threads at random here for some sort of divine inspiration to appear about Kane TC or not... I think I'll just regular cap him; it feels too much a risk if he's not 100%. Last time he wasn't fully right he was very poor vs Arsenal.

I would play RLC. I would always play a mid over defender facing top 6.
