    Opinions on keeping Benteke lads, fixtures aren't great but he is scoring.

    352 or 343, Benteke is key to this really.

    I am keeping him.

    Who else do you have to choose from?

    Anything up to 8.5 really but means I have to dump a defender I'd like to get

    As mentioned it depends who else you have up front

    He isn't an option for me as I've 24mill in Aguero and Costa/Rooney

    Nothing at Stoke and Scoring one goal at home to a promoted side who are expected to leak a lot wouldn't fill me with confidence going into the coming fixtures and Liverpool are no great shakes,
    I wouldn't peg him as a must have with the run coming.

    Would only keep him at moment if it's to facilitate an expensive MF.

    53 points. Thank you, captain Benteke. Boy, did I need that.

    Pelle is a decent option as well for me.

    Guess its time to decide on 352 or 343 really.

    He didn't seem to have a good end-product on Saturday from what I've heard on Gillette SS. However, I think he'd be very handy with the fixtures Southampton have coming up. With my WC in play, I'm thinking of keeping him if I can afford him over Gomis.

    Back to back 25 points for me. I don't even have the likes of Rooney, Hazard, Sterling or Walcott and am still doing shokingly bad. At least Clyne saved me from an embarrassment.

    Lost my H2h by 1 point. Changed Benteke to Pelle (c)..other guy didn't have Benteke so when he hit the crossbar I was going mad...

    I think Pelle is overpriced at 8.0,
    I've sold Mane with my WC but if buying a Southampton player I'd go Mane(8.0) or Tadic (7.0) in MF as they are playing quite advanced and then use additional funds on a 3rd striker (Gomis, Lukaku, Benteke)

    Much better week this week with 45 points. Team still isn't in great shape.

    So my 68 (-4) worth 85k this week bring me up to 45k. Took me 17 GWs last year to reach that rank :pac:.

    Now hopefully I can build on that.

    4 pts hit worked a treat. Walcott + Bony -> Payet + Benteke (C).
    If I make the calculations for this week it's a 22 pts net gain (Wanyama 2 pointer in for Walcott + Bony single pt + Kane 4 pts captain fail - think I'd have gone for him because of Rooney awful stats at Villa Park - vs the 29 pts I got from Payet, Benteke (C) & Kane). Even if I compare with making only 1 of these transfers, any situation would show how advantageous they were (and I'm not even including the added team value bonus). I could almost regret not having gone -8 Bellerin to Darmian/Shaw. But let's not be cocky :P.
    Delighted with my (probable) best ever 4 pts hit :D.

    Yes!!!!

    Massive jump from 2.6 million to over 2.15 million. If I can keep this up, I'll be into the top 2 million soon.

    That means I'm better than 1 in every 3 FPL players on the planet!!!

    Yes!!!

    627k. Yet to take off but it is encouraging to know that many of those in front of me will not remain so.

    36, will gladly take that.

    Won my H2H by one point,

    Robert Huth and his bicycle kick coming in for Theo are in my hall of fame for the season now. :D

    53 points for the GW brings me to the lofty heights of 700k. So long millionaires club! :D

    45k is a seriously good rank at this stage, given the amount of people who used their triple captain already.

    Cheers mate ;).

    Yeah it actually feels weird with most of the forum regulars having a mare of a start or at best struggling. I even beat my 2 years ago best start (which was helped by a DGW1 IIRC).

    Now, I was saying last year with my crap start and I won't change sides because I'm on a roll this year, GW2 standings mean nothing at all. It's very nice to be there but now the real thing begin: I have to stay there :).

    44 pts progress.

    52 this week, overall 90. Have to be happy with that considering the pure madness of GW1 and GW2.

    Currently 405 in the world with wildcard played.

    It's been a strange start!

    Finished on 66 points, thought Bentake might have got me a few more but cant really complain. On 105 overall and just inside the top 150k. 4pt hit taken last night to bring in Aguero, which included getting rid of Terry.

    That's good work for -4 I'd say.
