    Will wait on Mendy news but Zaha to Mitrovic is likely. Fulham weren't great today but he still had good chances. Zaha has been disappointing since I got him and there always seems to be some sort of niggly injury.

    What about the rest of the week they don’t and he doesn’t start?
    What if Mané wins pen ?
    Crazy move

    I want to have double Chelsea and Pedro seems like he will be either rotated or subbed off a lot so his minutes will be reduced.
    I've a hunch Giroud could be rotated depending on how high as line the other team play.
    I dont fancy Kante to be able to produce enough going forward and whie Jorginhino is class again not a big points scorer

    This leads me to Kovavic who I think won't be as big a rotaion risk (although seems to be subbed frequently enough himself)
    Small sample but he is begining to line up well statistically for me. In terms of shot and key passes per game

    Hazard gets a load of touches on the ball per game, with Chelsea playing so much through him it leads to the players around him getting more touches and more space as he often draws more then one player on to him.

    If you look back Kovaic (position) is also getting more touches on the ball per minute then any other attacking position bar Hazards. (I'm not couting Jorghinio in this)

    And more touches mean more chances of scoring and assisting. (in a team we expect to score a lot this season)

    I could be way off here but I feel it is a good position to buy early on a player at a great price

    I watched him last week and was also impressed BUT I think he will play similar minutes to Pedro give or take , has lessgial threat and they have a mixed bag of fixtures
    In short it’s a waste of a transfer imo
    Sell Pedro by all means but not for him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,483 ✭✭✭macraignil


    Trippier in for Pereira who was not on Leicester team today for some reason I'm not sure of. Pereira seems to have good attacking points potential but Leicester look like they will concede loads this season.
    Trippier looks to be on free kick duty so will look to playing him every week, and he's a good way towards a price rise. Was going to go Eriksen in for Neves but I think he can just sit on the bench a bit longer now as to me it looks like Trippier could get more points in than Eriksen.

    Fcuk just did rage Foster to Hart ah well, playing terrible this year, too embarrassed to post last weeks -4 which involved Mendy and Hudson Odi to Frazer and





    Bamba I’d have been better off with Bambi, I was very drunk at the time in my defence.

    Good for a wildcard but otherwise you are looking at 2 transfers - 1 to get him in and another to get him back out a few weeks later.

    Bloody nonsense. You'd thing there'd have to be an "r" in there somewhere?
    On a FF forum, my first thought when I see a work beginning with G is always either "goal" or "gameweek", or maybe at a stretch, Jordan Henderson's gait.

    Anyway, considering Spurs kept just 1 clean sheet all season, I wouldnt be rushing to get Gazzinaga in, especially with superior 4.5m options for keepers playing week in, week out who have actually kept a few cleanies and made a few saves... even if they are named Joe Hart or Alex McCarthy or Rui Patricio.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,765 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    Have 2FT, Pedro out looks likely with the first, with Fraser or Richarlison on the watch list. Not too sure on the second, Wilson -> Mitrovic a possibility, Mendy could be on the chopping block too depending on what news emerges there. Could also roll the second.

    Considering a bank, but will give Mendy as long as he needs, as City are home against BHA.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,667 ✭✭✭Klonker


    Would it be crazy to use bench boost with a non playing keeper? Other 13 have good fixtures and would use FT to get someone decent for Kamara.

    I think I'm just trying to avoid making a decision who to bench :D

    Why not take a - 4? Essentially a - 2 to get a playing keeper

    I could do but Ederson is my other keeper so I think it might be a waste of .5m to upgrade, worth thinking about though!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    Salah out for Kane

    Then Either Ings or Wilson out for a player 6.8m (Maddison) /7.4m (Moura / Ramsey)


    So it’s either
    Maddison & Wilson
    Or
    Moura or Ramsey & Ings

    Using this as a note to self for later in the week
    Leaning towards banking and having a mini wilddcard soon as I have a few on the chopping block over the next few GWs to get Salah back in.

    Looking at moving on the following in no particular order.
    David Silva
    Mendy
    Walcott
    Kante
    Auba

    For -4, I can do
    Silva-Auba to Salah-Mitrovic. I don't love this move as I'm losing a premium attacker

    Don't like tying up so much in a non plying Mendy.

    Happy enough holding Kante (5th MF) and Walcott medium term as least they're playing and downgrading them doesn't really help me with Salah funds.

    If I make a move it will either be the -4 above

    or downgrade Mendy to a certain starter and start building Salah funds, who may or may not be a certain diminutive Portuguese right back :P

    Is salah's ownership the main reason you want him? If he was to drop to say 30% would he lose some appeal?

    I'm asking this as I think mane will be the highest owned Liverpool player sooner rather than later.

    As you said yourself you'd be loosing a premium attacker trying to fit in salah.

    Basically yes. The majority of my rivals own Salah

    I think I can get away without him for the Chelsea and Man city games. But if he starts hauling I'll be in trouble.

    It was always my plan to get him (or Mane) in soon, but I think I'd rather block Salah's points rather than try and rely on Mane differential points against my rivals' Salah points, if that makes any sense.

    Pep rotation/Mendy situation is also forcing me to think about moving Silva and Mendy on asap for guaranteed starters.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,170 ✭✭✭pimpmyhat


    Yes understood but if your rivals are active players there's a good chance they may ditch Salah. Just had a look Salah and mane almost identical ownership.

    I wildcarded last week didn't even entertain man city mids.
    Went for guaranteed starters.
    Re Mendy I have him since the start so may just hold for now.

    I got vardy and maddison in last week as have good fixtures, success so far.

    I'd prob be looking at arsenal now for next gameweek as Chelsea Vs Liverpool could cancel each other out.

    There's very little chance they'll drop Salah,
    purely going by their histories.

    I had similar thinking on selling up my city MF cover.
    I was set on selling Silva (ahead of this
    week) but his goal last weekend and another player dropping in price made me hold on.
    I feared the worst after he played 90 in Europe but I didn't want to take a -4 going into this gameweek.

    Auba is my only arsenal cover and my main differential in attack, 10.9 (maybe 10.8) soon seems a lot of money for small returns so far. I like owning him and his returns last season were great.

    Lacasette could give me the Arsenal cover and 1.5 more ITB,

    I have a lot of head scratching to do over the week :D
    This game is a lot tougher when I'm only half paying attention to what's going on.

    Chelsea fan here..i have alonso and hazard and feel they are more than enough,alonso is as good as any chelsea mid barring hazard in terms of FPL points. Rather suggest you to invest somewhere else


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,022 ✭✭✭✭Iused2likebusts


    If you think you want to captain a liverpool player its best that you have salah as he is the best option from that team.

    You can't have a player from every team and you can't always have the exact players you want from those teams you do actually cover. Arsenal look like finishing between 8th and 5th but so do Leicester, Everton and Watford etc. Why not pick up a few stars from those teams and try squeeze in more premiums from the likes of City, Chelsea and Liverpool who will be fighting at the top and scoring more /conceding less than Arsenal?

  • Registered Users Posts: 525 ✭✭✭heartofwhite


    Can anyone shed light on why so many people have Mendy at the back (me included) instead of Laporte who costs 0.8 less and has started every game? Trying to decide i I should sell Mendy and replace with him free up cash.

    Mendy has huge attacking potential, Laporte doesn’t. Everyone who has mendy had him before this injury/incident.
    Also with ottamendi back, Laporte is a little more at risk of rotation as one extra centre back to accommodate

    Laporte won't get near the same returns as Mendy come end of season. However he's the most nailed on defender when Mendy is injured and its who I have

    Barring injury, Hazard to Salah this week.

    Gave Salah one last chance this week, glad he got the goal but he still looks a 9m player rather than a 13m player. Have Mane as "cover".

    If Hazard continues to get rested for Europa league then that can only be a good thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,026 ✭✭✭Peter File


    Pedro to maddison or Ricarlisson?

    Its harts place to lose. Their outfield players is a bit unsetttled. They have switched between 4 4 2 and 4 5 1. They have 4 strikers wood , vokes , vydra and barnes none of them are currently a standout first choice . Some weeks 2 out of those 4 start other weeks just 1. Gudmundson is the best burnley attacking option . Hart a good gk option . I have him myself. Charlie Taylor 4.4 i think has been starting LB ahead of ward might be worth a look too. Apart from that id steer clear for now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,595 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    Might get rid of Mané, think having him and Salah is overkill at the moment

    Arnie is a problem too, always getting injured

    I brought Hart in on a WC last week, got me 9pts yesterday, 2 save points and a BP in a team that got four goals, just behind him was Gudmundson with two assists. Burnley keepers have always been good scorers. It looks like Hart is nailed on

    They have, good fixtures.
    They have goals In their team, 14 goals in last 5 games in all Comps since City in GW1.
    Wouldn't touch their defence at the minute though.
    Auba is my differential and I think he has the ability to bring a monster score in any given week.
    I don't think Lacca has as high of a ceiling, but I like him as a player. And that extra 1.4 now could come in handy. But don't think I'll be able to squeeze him in, in any case.

    I just see them as good FPL points potential, and their players have low ownership in my main league.

    I'm maxed out on City and Chelsea, and want Salah from Liverpool so that's those 3 clubs covered.

    Agree with you on Leicester, everton and Watford, but I see these as clubs I can do without players from. I rather cut corners here than on the likes of the traditional top 6.

    I have Walcott but have my eye in Richarlison,
    Leicester interest me have no space for anyone at the moment, I'll be very surprised if Watford continue as they have been playing so not getting involved with them
