I thought I was a bit mad benching my 3 but guess I'm in good company. Only problem is if it goes wrong they'll drop a few places I'll drop a few hundred thousand!

Does anywhere have points per minute stats for players?

You're in good company alright, 4 city players play for the top two and bilva is their highest pts scorer with 5

I played them of course

I've really suffered this year by not respecting the cheap options. Justin, Soucek and Gundog have been great players this year, I've completly ignored them apart from Soucek who I've left on the bench most of the time.

The last 2 weeks I have had Justin on the bench. And he will probably be on the bench again this week!

The "What If" function on the Livefpl site really gives a good insight of what players around your rank will impact you the most.

https://www.livefpl.net/whatif

By default, page 1 is your team, but if you filter by "EO around you", you can see the impact players will have. Obv it's updated after each GW, but still it's really handy.

Somewhat worrying for me - out of the top 11 owned players for my rank, i only have 2. I have 7 within the top 22 owned.

Not FF related as such but I know he's got a bit of a cult following here. Nice story on how Soucek came from been considered not good enough for Czech division 2 football to playing in the PL.

Fair play to him, seems like a really sound guy.

Another milestone for FPL: the total number of teams passes the 8-million mark for the first time.

I wonder how many are duplicate or dead teams? People setting up teams to be top of the gw for a day etc.

Anyone want to hazard a guess at how many genuine accounts there are? I guess its closer to the number that started the season, prob 3/4 of that number.

There is a GW1 league - assume if you just look at the last place - that would be accurate. Obv there will be dead team, but at least it's showing everyone who signed up at the beginning.

dr.kenneth noisewater · 12-02-2021 07:08PM

Start 2 out of 4 this GW: Watkins, Bamford, Son and Dec-Reid?

Currently have them selected in the above order

bantee · 12-02-2021 07:19PM

Selection headache for GK this week: Mccarthy home to wolves who've been diabolical lately or Martinez away to the resurgent Brighton, leaning towards Mccarthy currently

If I had Martinez I'd be starting him every week

sheroman01 · 12-02-2021 08:29PM

Start Dallas away to Arsenal....or Coufal at home to Sheffield Utd?

Coufal easily

markc91 · 12-02-2021 10:07PM

Whats the favoured chip strategy going forward ive no FH for 29 but all other chips available and 2 fts this week.

Current team is
Pope(Meslier)
Robbo Cancelo Dias (Coufal, Ogbonna)
Bruno Son Gundogan Grealish (Soucek)
Bamford DCL Cavani

Coufal has better chance of clean sheet but Dallas is playing very far forward he looks liking scoring most games. I'd go Dallas but I can see why a lot of people would go Coufal.

Bleating Lamb · 12-02-2021 10:58PM

Hi all,
my 5 defenders are Dias,Stones,Lowton,Wan Bissaka and Targett.

I see Dias has only 75% chance of starting up on his info.
Playing 3 at back this week....was thinking of going with Dias,Stones and Lowton.

Bit worried now Dias may not start...so wonder might Wan Bissaka outscore him v WBA?
Could go 4 at the back and drop Harvey Barnes from midfield but he is playing well at mo.

So nub of question....should I chance the 2 City boys:).....or go with Wan Bissaka and leave Dias first sub.

Dias trained today so should be fine.

Thanks would ye reckon himself and Stones play both league games or should I drop one of them for Wan Bissaka who might get an attacking return v WBA?

bantee · 13-02-2021 12:24AM

Went mad, took a -8 to get in Devordva Reid and Barnes so will BB now with Son, Dallas & Martinez too

COH · 13-02-2021 08:36AM

Bench Robertson or Dallas this week anyone?

Or bench both and play Anguissa!???

Boots234 · 13-02-2021 09:19AM

This may have been answered before but if you have 2 free transfers and you play Free hit will you lose one of your transfers for the following gameweek or still retain the 2?

Lose one of them

Newbie20 · 13-02-2021 10:54AM

Is Antonio likely to start? DCL seems to be gone for the weekend leaving him just with City game? I’m thinking of starting Antonio but benching DCL. Also starting Soucek and benching Son. Any advice on these selections?
