    Clyne, Williams, Evans, Duff or Pieters

    Im thinking Evans and Duff, not sure about the other 3, need to pick 1

    Tricky one this. I'd go for Clyne as he has attacking potential as well as clean sheet potential. Duff could get a cleanie against Sunderland and it's a toss up for the last spot. If I had to choose it'd be Clyne, Duff and Evans.

    Do many people here have Hazard in their teams? I just got rid of him this week. Despite playing well he has not been setting the world on fire in terms of FPL points so far. Added to that, Chelsea have some tough fixtures coming up. Man City, Palace, Man Utd, Liverpool all away + Villa, Arsenal, QPR at home are their next 7 games. Still, given the fact he is one of the few players capable of 200 points this season have many people kept faith in him?

    Bib theory that had sterling dropped last week reckons Liverpool playing a diamond with sterling behind borini and Mario. Skrtle in for Sakho and lallana and Coutinho benched.

    Sounds plausible, they looked better balanced when they switched to a diamond the other night. Lallana and Couthinho have been poor the last 2 games so I'd expect them to be dropped.

    This thread indicates that both got a 2 week ban

    Yep, was on a little two week break! Don’t want to drag this thread OT discussing moderating decisions as it will result in another ban. Unsure if I’ll post as much on the forum anymore but at least the thread above has clarified that the other poster will receive a ban if he replies to any of my posts. Hopefully that’s the end of it.

    Lets get back on topic! I didn’t have too bad a week last week (71-4) although I lost the Head to Head match. He had Mata who I had transferred out (at a 4 point hit) for Sterling. Turned out to be the difference but it was the correct move based on their form at the time and price changes. Almost wildcarded this week but decided against it as its only my backline that is bothering me and that seems to be everyone’s issue recently. Di Maria looking like he could become a must have though! Saw my first green arrow of the season with a tiny climb up from 75k to 72k. Another point hit taken ahead of this weekend but it was needed to get Pelle in, had my eye on him pre-season but didn’t pull the trigger. Doubled up on Stoke defence (again) and QPR have managed to score. Twice. Think I'm 3/18 on clean sheets so far this season.

    Good luck at the weekend folks.

    I got rid of him for Fabregas when I wildcarded this week.

    He certainly has been playing well as you mentioned, but a piece of commentary during the Chelsea Champions League game summed up how things have been going: "after great work from Hazard, Fabregas was on hand to profit"

    I have no doubt he'll be there or threabouts come the end of the season but at the minute Fabregas is doing better in FPL terms and is cheaper so it's a no-brainer IMO.

    There has been 1 goal in Burnley games since half time in the Chelsea game 3 and a half games ago. So although they are looking solid they aren't looking like scoring ings is out also I'd defo start Mannone most likely 0 0 of the weekend for me.
    First bet in a long time won 70 euro:) makes up for another frustrating FF day

    Any particular reason that you find a problem with the other poster replying to you? As a long time lurker on the forum I think it'll be a loss that two differing opinions can be discussed. Often both arguments had their merits.

    Clean sheet for Clyne and Duff! Hopefully Evans can get some points too!

    Great shout jebforever!

    Welcome back rory, get in there and start posting again like usual. No point cutting off your nose to spite your face.

    And get yourself back as well Lemlin, this town is most definitely big enough for both of ye.

    Was considering posting something similar. As a fairly frequent poster for just over a year I think it would be a huge shame to lose either Rory or Lemlin's contributions. Personality clashes happen, and get worse quicker in impersonal online situations.

    Please lads just use the ignore thingy and continue contributing to the community.

    I had to wildcard last week without any advice from either of yis ffs. Nightmare!! :)

    Would be a shame if moderating decisions were what caused you to stop posting as much. I absolutely understand where you're coming from though.

    Folks I'll copy this issue in here because some people won't be checking the game week 5 transfer thread anymore..

    Folks, odd thing has happened in my game - I had 2 FTs saved up, and decided to pop out Balotelli yesterday and brought Pelle in.

    Went to have a look at what else I might change this week, and I now have 0???! Was I supposed to use them both together? I haven't banked a transfer in ages.

    Happened me last week when I had 2x free. After the first transfer it showed up 0 free transfers remaining.
    When I went to make the second transfer it said "this will cost you 0 points".

    You still have the second free transfer, it's just a bug in the display.

    Ah here I can see no need for that whatsoever. He merely responded to something I said. You'd swear he directed a personal insult at you..

    I assume there I more to this banning than what we have seen today? Personally it looks very harsh but who knows what has gone on in PM's or whatever.

    I hope that this isn't the end of rorys contributions to this forum, I won't say any more than that.
