    Are you sure that TC is wise? Both away from home and off form would be big red flags.

    It's a bit of a risk but with Fulham's awful defensive record and the fact Salah is bound to get amongst the goals again eventually I'm just going for it.

    I'd never usually use the TC in a single gameweek but the way this season has unfolded it doesn't leave too many more options to use it so I've chosen to go this route.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Alisson
    TAA Tarkowski Yedlin
    Mané (c) Hazard(vc)
    Barnes Rondon

    Transfer banked

    This week is operation damage limitation

    Gd'luck folks. And happy Paddy's Day

    Just the False 9 for me (-4)

    Boruc,
    Robertson, Pereira, Luiz, Rice,
    Anderson, Salah(c), Brooks,
    Vardy(vc)

    News of Mane Rested/Injured making me me nervous.
    Will probably do Mane to Siggy and Rondon to Firmino then. Have good amount in bank to fund that.
    Free Hit will be worth having after all this week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,392 ✭✭✭COH


    No hits...

    Fabianski
    Robertson - Perreira - Luiz
    Salah - Mane - Richarlison - Anderson
    Wilson - Vardy - Higuain

    Made transfers early in the week due to prices and now there seem to be doubts over Mane (rest), Higuain (illness) and Anderson (dropped/poor form) :eek:

    Just going to roll with what I have and hope for the best.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,399 ✭✭✭✭ThunbergsAreGo


    -4 and a full 11 though I reckon I will see ten at most start

    Boruc

    TAA, Robbo, Peirera, Diop

    Hazard, Salah, Richy, McNeill

    Vardy, Barnes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,982 ✭✭✭Trimm Trabb


    -4

    Boruc

    TAA Robertson Pereria

    Salah (c) Anderson Ricky Fraser

    King Vardy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Fab
    Pereira - TAA - Luiz
    Brooks - Hazard - Salah
    Firmino - Mitro

    No hits so far and cant really see anyone I want to take one for although thinking a hit for Fraser is justified due to 31.

    What are peoples thoughts on hits for players like that this week where for this week it's quite marginal?

    Have 8 playing and 1 transfer available. Only option would be to bring in defender but none standing out. Have 3 Liverpool inc Allison snd Robo. If you could bring in one defender this week who would it be. Thinking might just bank transfer

    Etheridge,

    Using my 1st bench boost this week. :pac:

    Are you free hitting next week? Or what's your plans?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,847 ✭✭✭Cartman78


    Yet another -4.....trying to keep pace with main money league rival.

    Lascelles red flag and a couple of doubts elsewhere pushed me to it. Probably going to WC next week.

    Fabianski

    Robertson | Rice | Lascelles

    Anderson | Salah (c) | Mane | Brooks | McNeil

    Vardy | Wilson

    Subs: Who Cares

    Good look all :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Would love to own Wilson or Fraser. Raging I brought in King the other week. Hope he will turn good.

    Just 8 players, 9 if Puncheon manages to get minutes.

    Boruc
    Robertson Perierra
    Salah (c) Mane Maddison (Puncheon)
    Vardy King

    If it's covering you for 33 it can be justified due to appearance points

    If your plan is to FH GW32 then you have to be looking at a -4 for puncheon for player who plays both 31 and 33.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,255 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Fabianski
    Schindler, Ake, TAA
    Hazard, Salah, Mane
    Vardy

    Transfers were Aguero to Vardy and Son to Hazard.

    Hazard I'm not too keen on but Everton have just been so poor defensively.

    I have another reason that i wouldn’t even consider it
    This week he will be captained by the bast majority of players
    So you are only in effect “captaining “him over most
    .i.e. getting one extra set of points
    On any other given week for rest of season bar maybe 33 your TC will have much more of an effect imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,788 ✭✭✭Benimar


    -4 (Hazard & Wilson for Son and Aguero)

    Alisson
    Robertson, David Luiz
    Salah(c), Hazard, Richarlison, Anderson, Brooks
    Vardy, Wilson

    Will FH in 32.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,336 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Just seen the mane news in injury thread
    Mother ****er
    I checked klopps press conference and twitter before making the transfer last night
    Was between him and hazard


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,672 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Fabianaki
    Robbo Luiz
    Salah(c) Mane Hazard
    Vardy Mitro Wilson

    -4 taken, would have had 10 if not for Lascelles deciding to do his knee in. Might only have 8 now with Mane


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 925 ✭✭✭rekluse


    60 points ahead in my money league. Have 3 players playing this weekend and 2FT, guess I have to free hit ? Not sure what to do as I’ve no idea what the story is with DGW’s etc now.

    Pereira and Anderson still stinking the place out.

    WC and BB, have been slacking lately on FF and kinda lost track of blanks/dgw’s.

    you will just have to suck up the loss of FT and Free Hit
    Annoying but not the end of the world.

    -8 hopefully this will be the same team for gw33
    Fabianski
    TAA,VVD,Luiz,
    Salah(c), Hazard, Snodgrass, Brooks,
    Wilson,Rondon,Vardy
    Subs, Hamer, Pogba, Lindelhof, Valery


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,860 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    I don't know, he could get to 7 players with a -8? Which in reality is a - 4. Really think the free hit will be more valuable for 32.

    Only having three this week means he has 12 with possible DGW next week. FH this week then TC or BB the next

    I just wish he'd said Fraser will be ok instead of should be ok! Given that prognosis I guess worst case scenario is he misses out and gets 2 points in 33 but the upside more than makes up for that risk.

    What outcome are we hoping for in the Watford v Palace game FF wise?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 925 ✭✭✭rekluse

    Fab / Foster

    Digne/AWB/Kola/Lindelof/Doherty

    Eddie Howe is a pathological liar. If he says Fraser is Ok, he's possibly already died from his injuries and certainly won't be playing this weekend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,595 ✭✭✭macraignil


    Free hit team playing and hoping for a West Ham clean sheet and Mane to make the Liverpool team selection. Guessing that him missing training as some people have posted might have been enough of a rest.

    Fabianski
    Alexander Arnold, Diop, Rice
    Hazard, Mane, Salah(c), Sigurdsson
    Vardy(vc), Rondon, Wilson

    Boruc, Richarlison, Pereira, Digne

    Would have selected Fraser and Higuain if there were not doubts about them playing.
    Good luck and happy St. Patric'ks weekend.

    It's a tricky one. I'm in favour of going big on hits for players that will play in GW31 and 33 as the hit will be wiped out by appearance points and anything else you get will be a bonus. I'd take a - 8 or -12 if I was your position and free hit next week but others here would disagree.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,951 ✭✭✭✭Ace2007

    In the situation of 3 playing it would be a good week for the free hit in my opinion as you will get the benefit of 8 more players scoring you points. Pity about loosing the extra free transfer but if your team is doing that well maybe there were no major changes required to the team anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,336 ✭✭✭✭km79

    I think we overthink things
    He has 3 players. Use FH
    If he has 12 players with no game this week they will likely have doubles anyway
    Sometimes absolutely no planning is rewarded..........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 925 ✭✭✭rekluse


    Cheers for the advice lads think I’m gonna FH.
