    What teams rotate well early in season when looking to pick up value defenders etc?

    Honestly haven't got the time to research it now!

    Thanks for any advice.

    There's a good app called fpl wizard that does all this, I bought the pro version last year (only about €1.50 I think) but they had a free version too. Check it out.

    Is it up and running again this year.

    Oh sorry, no, i only checked there now and it hasn't updated for 17/18 season.
    I hadn't used it yet this season as I'm only setting up for first 3 or so gw' s with a view to wildcarding once things become clearer with Sanchez, coutinho, all the new signings, lacazette , morata etc.
    So just assumed it was working. Pity, it was very useful last season.

    Ye I think its gone . Such a shame as it was my most useful FF resource after this forum. To answer OP I think Burnley,Brighton,Bournemouth works out quite well.

    Here's the rotating pairs, not sure about threeways:

    I like Burnley, Brighton, Newcastle in terms of three-way rotation of guaranteed starters at £4.5m.

    Over the first 6 gameweeks (no point planning any further IMO) it gives: TOT, WBA, WHU, WBA/CPL, STO and HUD/NEW.

    The first fixture is a 1-2 pointer at best, but after that it's good IMO. Bournemouth work well with that too but at £4.5m you've only got Francis who may not even start.

    Palace are the key to superb three-way rotation but there's no guaranteed early starters at £4.5m. Fosu-Mensah will hopefully become an option in the coming weeks.

    For two-way, Burnley and Newcastle offer guaranteed £4.5m starters and give: TOT, WBA, WHU, CPL, STO and HUD.

    Palace-Burnley offer a lovely rotation starting out. Don't be surprised to see me with a PVA/Walters o.o.p. rotation!

    Brighton and Huddersfield offer decent rotation for the first few months. I'm going with Lowe and Suttner.

    Currently on Foster/Elliott
    Bailly Cedric Daniels Suttner Long

    Wondering would it be safer to drop Daniels as he is 5m and go for 3 rotating 4.5m lads that are starting....will probably play 3 at back though a good bit.

    If playing 3 at the back then drop Daniels and rotate your 4.5m defenders with Bailly/Cedric.
