Cartman78 · 15-10-2016 07:31AM

Foster

Verthongen VVD A.Smith

Capoue Mane Eriksen Walcott

Benteke Lukaku Aguerooooo (C)

Jakupovic Lallana Valencia Amat

Not overly confident this week tbh....just brought in VVD for Baines. Capoue starting isn't ideal...but don't want to risk a Lallana one point 5 minute cameo

15-10-2016 08:21AM

Cech

Stones Vertonghen Lovern

Sanchez Mane Firmino Walcott

Aguero Benteke(c) Deeney

Think West Ham are truly awful and can see Benteke filling his boots.

Sold Antonio last night. He will probably get a hat trick today.

All I want is 100 points.

That would be my worst GW8 score in years! GW8 has been pretty special It's surely got to let us down at some point.

Necronomicon · 15-10-2016 08:46AM

Foster
Williams Evans Smith
Sterling Sanchez Firmino Antonio
Benteke Costa Aguero

Pickford, Capoue, Kone, Amaat

Quite worried for my defence this week. I'm still looking for a possible FT, I can do a straight 4.5 swap for Kone but not sure who would be worth bringing in.

Captaincy on Aguero for the moment, and will probably stay that way. VC on Benteke because it's not beyond the bounds of possibility that both Kun and Alexis are rested.

Lemlin · 15-10-2016 08:47AM

Lads, sorry to do this but haven't had time to look at my team. Team is:

Heaton
Gibson, Holebas, Evans
Antonio, Capoue, Firmino, Sanchez
Lukaku, Costa, Aguero

Pickford, Amat, Snodgrass, Williams

01. in the bank and two free transfers. Anyone pick any?

km79 · 15-10-2016 08:57AM

getting awful tempted to captain Benteke

Would be tempted to use them to try get Theo in for Antonio that's what I did but I don't have Sanchez.

thewools · 15-10-2016 09:23AM

Any confirmation regarding sterling for this weekend

Could be time to move on Antonio and Capoue.

I'd keep Snodgrass over those two.

Edit - I'd be looking at a -4 and move Lukaku on as you could save money there. Baines back so Lukaku loses penos. Benteke, Deeney and Defoe are all cheaper and on penos. That would give you extra cash needed for replacing Antonio and Capoue.

loadwire · 15-10-2016 09:32AM

Pickford
Walker Francis Baines
Antonio Sanchez Firmino Snodgrass
Benteke Lukaku Aguero(c)

Bench: Mandandanda Capoue McAuley Amat

15-10-2016 09:34AM

Foster
Hector Walker Stones
Sanchez Walcott Redmond Sterling
Aguero Lukaku Austin

Spent more than I intended in defence with bringing in Bellerin but I couldn't ignore Arsenals upcoming games.

Why would you want to move Capoue from that lineup, you're not going to gain worthwhile money and he's still the best bet under 5m.
I haven't been following the transfer thread @lemlin but I've felt the need to get Walcott in this week with upcoming fixtures in mind. There's a few ways you could do the same.

Lemlin · 15-10-2016 10:02AM

Heaton
Gibson, Holebas, Evans
Antonio, Capoue, Firmino, Sanchez
Lukaku, Costa, Aguero

Pickford, Amat, Snodgrass, Williams

I'm thinking Lukaku to Benteke and Antonio to Walcott.

km79 · 15-10-2016 10:03AM

play capoue or bolasie
currently on bolasie

mno101 · 15-10-2016 10:11AM

Son Sanchez Walcott CApoue
Lukaku Benteke Aguero

I seen somebody earlier play Heaton over Foster but I wouldn't.

CSF · 15-10-2016 10:32AM

Can't decide whether to play Pickford for the outside chance of a cleanie or Foster for the probable save points.

Tough call but I fancy Stoke to get 3 points so I'd play Foster.

BigWhiskey · 15-10-2016 10:38AM

2 questions lads

Pickford or Mandanda?

Snodgrass or Bolasie?

Is this a real question??

Is this what we've become lads!!

Mr.Prodston · 15-10-2016 10:58AM

Pickford
Evans - Holebas - Williams
Walcott - Sanchez - Firminho - Antonio
Lukaku - Aguero (c) - Benteke

Mandanda: Capoue - Kone - Amat

I considered using my AOA to start Capoue over Williams but there might be weeks when I have an injury crisis rather than just poor fixtures.

Antonio got a stay of execution as a -4 for Son would have been some risky shenanigans. Also I mulled long and hard between Benteke or Austin.

I'll settle for 4 goals from Sergio this GW8 I think

Mint Sauce · 15-10-2016 11:06AM

This is the week where FPL really conflicts with loyalties. Have kept faith with Ibra, but thinking if he does nothing this week he is gone, will also free up cash to up date midfeild or defence.

Flip side, he is playing Liverpool, and obviously want Liverpool to win. A Liverpool win with an Ibra goal he will probabaly be held on to. Otherwise he is more than likely gone.

In other news, did finally get in Snodgrass and Sanchez with two FT, now watch Hazard and Antonio score who were let go for them.

COH · 15-10-2016 11:07AM

Foster
Williams/Lovren/Valencia
Firmino/Walcott/Sterling/Payet
Deeney/Aguerro(c)/Lukaku

[Pickford/Kone/Fletcher/Amat]

Downgraded Capoue who I'm never going to play anyway to Fletcher for his 2 point hauls and Antonio to Walcott because having two West Ham and no Arsenal was giving me nightmares. Chances of clean sheet points for my defence this week looks to he a resounding zero to none but nothing new there!

Fill yer boots Aguerro :cool:

Wneu110 · 15-10-2016 11:08AM

Deciding to leave out or put in Aguero in your fantasy team is absolute torture..

He flopped in the previous game week & I gained massively from it

Mr. Guappa · 15-10-2016 11:11AM

Pickford
Lovren - Stones - A.Smith
Sterling - Sanchez - Firmino - Antonio
Lukaku - Aguero (c) - Deeney

Heaton: Holebas - Capoue - Amat

Had 2FT but only used one (Williams -> A.Smith) which gives me some nice WAT/BOU rotation at the back, and a decent first sub once I downgrade Capoue.

Went with Pickford over Heaton in goals, not much in it but I feel there is a slighlty better chance of save points.

Antonio was lucky to survive, but I'd rather carry the transfer and see how things stand after the weekend.
