    Etheridge and Jimenz out for Boruc and King (2fts). I'm not over convinced on it but seems a logical enough move to keep me through the BGWs. They have good fixtures, but just hope dropping Jimi doesnt come back to bite me.

    Looking at Kolasinac and Pererya to David Luiz and Brooks with my 2FTs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,244 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Fabianski
    Ake TAA AWB
    Pogba Salah Mane Son
    Aguero Jimenez Rashford

    Subs: Button, Schindler, Bednarek, Kayal

    Banked: 1 mil

    I went Bennett to Ake with one transfer and have another.

    I have six starters for next GW so can get up to eight.

    Plan would be Brooks in for Son or Kayal but that would leave me not playing Son this GW which I’m unsure about as he’s away to Saints.

    Opinions?

    When doing the free hit can we do our 1 or 2 free transfers beforehand with the following gw in mind or will they be wiped when activating the free hit?

    In a weird spot this week. 2FT's, but free hitting next week so need to use them this week. No major concerns for my team, but don't want to be loading up on DGW players before the DGW's are actually announced. WOuld be ideal if I could carry one through the FH

    If you have 2 FTs and use Free hit then you do not get to keep your 2nd transfer for the following week...you are back to just 1

    *similar question just answered above too

    Lukaku got 13 last week, Pogba got -1.

    People will say it’s sideways but there is huge differential out there & it’s the only way to climb

    One thing I have learned over the years of FPL, is never bank on Lukaku

    That is crazy imo
    2 Ft gone on at best sideways moves
    Selling Salah before a home game vs Burnley. Ive been there (it was Bournemouth) and I was severely punished

    Depends on a lot of things. If you take away the Salah fear, it's an "in-form" move. I assume plenty of chips are in play. Lukaku's a great differential if it pays off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,709 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    i've a feeling this might be a big GW.

    lots of the big players playing 'easy' games where you'd normally expect them to score well.

    Burnley and Watford win to Nil it is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭Porthallian


    Almiron, Barnes or Tielemans?

    Have Vardy and Peireira already from Leicester

    Coulda said the same about Salah before home games against Watford, Bournemouth and Leicester since Christmas, he's blanked in all of them. Plus he's got Munich away next Wed so if they're in cruise control, not a hop he goes past 60mns.

    I had to make transfers this week as was FH'ing next week anyway.

    Arsenal are cat at the back, Lukaku scored 6 in 3 games, and can't be rotated as, well, they have nobody else at the moment, he destroyed them in the cup game this year, 2 assists and should have had a goal. Plus the confirmed DGW is tasty.

    TBH, I've been playing this game 12 years, probably 10 top 200k finishes, what's the point in another by playing safe and having players owned by 46% (Salah) and 30% (Rash). Only way to gain spots is to be aggressive.

    Thoughts on Son and Lacazette out for Sterling and Zaha?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭sheroman01


    Should I take a risk on King? I'd be taking Jimenez out. No hit. Good fixtures and no blanks. But not in fantastic form.

    brave to bring in two players with no GW 31 fixture, unless you're using FH in 31.

    I have 31 sorted

    Thinking of just making the one FT now and leaving son to mane for a week
    Will be handy have 2 FT
    I don’t REALLY need Mané this week and am wary of getting caught out planning ahead too far again

    he didn't blank in the Bournemouth game.

    Salah will only come off on 60 minutes if Liverpool are winning, at which point it'd be surprising if he hasn't got something.

    i understand selling Salah if you're set for GW 31, or are free hitting in 31. but it can't be described as anything but a massive risk to sell him before GW 31 if you don't plan on getting him back in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,837 ✭✭✭dr.kenneth noisewater


    Really struggling to see a decent move this week with 2FT. Plan is FH is 31 as only have 4 players. Team is 

    Fab
    Robertson-Lindelof-AWB
    Pgba-Sterling-Salah-Maddison
    Aguero-Rashford-Niasse
    Guaita-Doherty-Hojberg-Bedernak

    Nothing ITB but would like to move on Hojberg and Niasse but dont see any upgrades available with DGW32


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85 ✭✭supasoumi99


    Building for GW31 and playing my Free Hit in 32 and have ended up with the following team;

    Ederson, Boruc
    Robbo, TAA, Pereira, AWB, Digne
    Son, Pogba, Salah, Fraser, Maddison
    Aguero, King, Arnie

    They all have pretty decent fixtures this week so I am very tempted to BB - am I crazy to not save it for a DGW?! I don't have a WC so can't really set myself up for another DGW and also have my TC to play so thinking it may be as good a week as any to play the BB. Sitting at 7,400 overall and a bit behind in some Money Leagues so thinking it may be a week for a gamble...

    Who would your subs be if you were picking 11 as normal?

    Yeah tough. Perhaps a hit involving losing Salah next week.

    This week a re-shuffle of your defence perhaps?
    Robbo to TAA and Fab to Ederson? Kepa/Chelsea defender if Laporte/Mendy interest you.

    Hojberg for Hayden and maybe guita for boruc, both have form and fixtures. then move in lindelof or niasse the week after

    Would it be profitable to get Mane in for Son this week or is their respective outcomes this GW equal?

    Son has looked awful the last few games though. I'm thinking of selling him this week so I can fund a move for Vardy.
