Had injury concerns about Walcott & Cairney coming into this gameweek. Then Fraser gets injured... now Seamus Coleman is injured too. Having already used my free transfer to avoid losing value (Firmino > Vardy) I may now revisit the possibility of wildcarding as may not field 11 players this gameweek now if :mad:

Could just hope for the best and roll the dice on Walcott being fit as would have AWB to come in for Coleman?

Head now wrecked. Any advice?

Mock up a few WC drafts for a worst case scenario.
The pressers will hopefully tell you a hit (or two) will suffice.

Disregardusing your FT anyway, as when using the WC it wouldn't carry to next week anyway.

Try assess it objectively, if its just one week you're worried about and had a particular week in mind for the wildcard, consider the free hit.

Using the free hit chip for something like this is madness. A double gameweek in the second half of the season is a better of use it in my opinion.

dr.kenneth noisewater · 11-09-2018 10:48am

Just short .1 to do Salah/Walcott to Mane/Hazard for -4. Might go to -8 as I want to get rid of Mata as well

extra gravy · 11-09-2018 10:59am

Think I'll give Mkhi another week. Rumours about Ozil leaving plus Mkhi may not be able to play in Azerbaijan so should feature in gameweek's 7 and 8.

Can’t be true because at this rate with the Walcott and Mkhi news I’ll be able to carry my FT.

I just can’t see that happening.

Slightly tempted but I'm waiting to see how Utd get on this weekend first. If they are in decent shape I will consider their players as they have a good run of fixtures but am hesitant to go there just yet.

Yeah, Utd have been really shaky. Sometimes they look really good and the next minute they are championship quality. Still good differential to consider

patmac · 12-09-2018 10:49pm

My team is in a bit of trouble and I’m languishing around the 1m rank,with
Team is:
Foster,
AWB, Alonso, Robertson
Salah, Dilva, Siggy, Neves
Kun, Firmino, Ings
Not playing: Speroni, Coleman, Shaw, Hudson-Oki. No money in the bank. Only one transfer.
Toying with several ideas,
A:Coleman/Shaw to Mendy/Bennett
B:Coleman to Bellerin.
C:Coleman/Hudson to Bennett/5.8 mid maybe Kante
And a real left field which I am really tempted by
D:Coleman/Firmino to Peltier/Lukaku, there is a chance that Shaw could play this weekend.
E:wildcard.
Tempted by D.

S.M.B. · 12-09-2018 11:02pm

I wouldn't call that team/squad a mess at all but you're unfortunate to have both Coleman and Shaw out at the moment.

I would be looking at getting Mendy in, regardless of injuries. So...

Coleman/x -> Mendy/x

Getting rid of Shaw could be a waste (if you switched Coleman for Mendy we'd have the same back 5)

If Richarlison was due back this weekend I'd be switching Siggy out for him. If price rises aren't going to bite you then saving you transfer for next week wouldn't be a disaster.

2nd Row Donkey · 12-09-2018 11:08pm

@patmac

Not b or c that's for sure.

A is a safe move or D if you feel punt but risky.

I think I'd wildcard to be honest.

I'd probably do A. Shaw might play but can't see United keeping a clean sheet. Mendy would be a priority for me at this stage and Bennett is a good bench option though I'd nearly play him over AWB this week if Tomkins is still out - don't fancy Palace defence when he's not playing.

Green&Red · 12-09-2018 11:26pm

Anyone considering taking a punt on Rico?

ScummyMan · 13-09-2018 12:17pm

2FTs.

Salah and Mkhi out, Mane and Hazard in.

Cantona's Collars · 13-09-2018 1:28pm

Gotta get Walcott out,back to Richarlison seems the obvious move.
Anyone else thinking the same?

Shedite27 · 13-09-2018 1:49pm

Took a -4 and -8 the past 2 weeks and now think I'm banking. Weird season

carnie · 13-09-2018 2:05pm

Debating whether to give Eriksen another week or two.

Hasn't scored in his last 10 GWs but 2 goals in the Int breaking is promising.

Playing different role with Denmark. He doesn't have set pieces with Spurs at the moment either. I dumped him last night in case he dropped.

RisingDamp · 13-09-2018 2:24pm

Considering switching Salah to Hazard but trying to talk myself out of it. Liverpool home to Southampton next week and all.

Did exactly the same - Good luck us.

tailgunner · 13-09-2018 7:09pm

Am I mad to be considering Robertson to Alonso for a hit? Already have Hazard and Pedro.

The real mccoy 91 · 14-09-2018 9:22am

Im still holding onto my ft a bit tempted to do Jimenez to ings for an interest in the Monday night game but don't think it's worth it. Mhki and siggy could be problems but 1 more week will tell me alot and can fix them with 2 ft next week

km79 · 14-09-2018 10:57am

Still have miki and Pedro as rotation risks and now Fraser may be injured
But for possibly the first time after an int break I think I’ll bank
I’ll have an extra FT on the many many wildcarded next week then

extra gravy · 14-09-2018 12:28pm

1. Start Mkhi
2. Bench him for AWB
3. Sell him for Maddison

Help?!

I'm going for 1
If he doesn't start then it will be 3 next week

RisingDamp · 14-09-2018 2:25pm

Salah/Walcott => Hazard/Dilva for -4

Stupid?

NoviGlitzko · 14-09-2018 2:56pm

Walcott has been given (more or less) the green light to play this GW. Thank feck for that!

I went for number 3.

I'm a United fan so I should have known better than to rely on him.

Gary Gurny · 14-09-2018 3:16pm

Why is jimenez of wolves yellow flagged anyone?.

Transferred out zaha because of injury for jimenez on wednesday.. checked team & twitter feed thursday evening and it looked like zaha is fit to play and jimenez yellow flagged ..

The joys of FPL!.

sent home from international duty with a minor knock.

also, that's more the 'joys of transferring before internationals', than 'joys of FPL'. if you do early transfers, you're running a heavy risk of injury, or at least doubt. players are sent back to their clubs with minor knocks these days, so it's hard to know where to stand.

larchielads · 14-09-2018 4:50pm

Why are people taking out salah, have i missed somethin??

Gaillimh1976 · 14-09-2018 4:51pm

No, but he has missed lots of chances.

I'm sticking with him myself, but I can see why some are switching.

Cartman78 · 14-09-2018 4:52pm

Used my FT on finally getting Alonso in for PVA.

Debating whether to take a hit to get rid of one of Walcott, Mikhy or King.

King dropping tonight but on pens and has decent fixtures.....Deeney/Mitro earmarked as a replacement.

Walcott/Mikhy replacement would most likely be Pedro/Madisson.

Now that I've typed all that out I'm not convinced that either move is worth a hit(??)

larchielads · 14-09-2018 5:23pm

Also dont know whether to stick with ederson v fulham or go with patricio v burnley???

RisingDamp · 14-09-2018 6:25pm

You have to go Ederson, otherwise what's the point in having a premium GK

larchielads · 14-09-2018 6:46pm

Yeah your right

Iused2likebusts · 14-09-2018 6:56pm

I got in dilva for cairney to go with getting in wilson for firmino at the start of the international break.

HenrysLeftHand · 14-09-2018 7:42pm

I have 5.4m for a one week midfield punt. What's the best option do ye reckon?

Porthallian · 14-09-2018 7:47pm

Seri or Redmond

Yeah, they were the two I came up with as well. Seri is away to city though and I just don't fancy Redmond. On a wildcard so might just rejig it again!

km79 · 14-09-2018 11:05pm

Again have not changed my team since end of last gameweek......don't think I'll make a transfer and will leave team set up as is with mitro first sub for Fraser
Will more than likely move Miki Townsend / fraser on week after for Ricky and maybe Madison

Porthallian · 14-09-2018 11:12pm

Think I might bank and reassess next week unless anyone sees a good change to make?

Hennessy
Mendy Alonso WanB Bennett
Salah Pedro Moura
Aguero Kane Zaha
Hamer Duffy Guendozi Gunnarsson

0.5m itb

ShagNastii · 15-09-2018 10:28am

Rejigged my team and I have 6.2 to spend in my midfield. Would I be right in saying Pereyra isnt entirely bankable?

Cypher_sounds · 15-09-2018 10:57am

Was gonna replace Bilva but...but gonna give him another chance, have a good feeling about today.

NabyLadistheman · 15-09-2018 11:08am

any indication if Zaha will be fit

Pete_Cavan · 15-09-2018 11:09am

Cypher_sounds wrote: »

Same. I think he will be back in the starting team today and, if so, has a reasonable chance of getting points. So many people transferred him out such that his priced dropped, could be a major trollin on the horizon.

Lisa.J.Kelly · 20-09-2018 12:37pm

First good transfer of the season. Got fraser in and transfered Walcott out just in time. Never gonna touch Walcott again

the whole year inn · 20-09-2018 4:45pm

Giroud and Pogba yes or no .I have them in as a wildcard.Think Pogs could be value with him on pens and on a bit of form now with decent fixtures.
Giroud upfront for chelsea, cheap and big goal threat and chelsea far more attacking.

My team looks like
Begovic /Hamar
Alonso Robertson Shaw / Wan B Simpson
Hazard Mane Pogba Frasiar Richcharlison
Aguero Giroud /Long.

What price is Long? Surely Jimenez or Ings are better alternatives?

Nope to both Simpson is 3.9 and Bennett is 4.5 and not in the bank.
