61 now with Salah to go. Bit better!
Reckon Pogba and Shaw might drop in value a bit this week.
Not sure. Shaw still got an assist, is cheap, seems to be in the starting lineup etc.
True. Reckon he'll be one of the top outs though
So happy I decided to go without any United player this year.
Less happy that I had to go all-out L'pool and City...

Sad that it has to be the case. Players from City, Liverpool and Spurs ahead of United any day. And even Crystal Palace.
Nah Shaw was a solid pick for 5.0. A goal and an assist in 2 games.
I got Shaw but considering Leicester's Pereira. Thoughts?
The United game, as so often is the case, saved my game week, although part of that was Groß. 
Cenk looks useless right now or am i knee jerking? Transferred him out along with Sanchez and got Agüero & Pedro with my 2 free transfers. Watch him score a hat-trick against Bournemouth & Pedro being dropped for Hazard now.
So pissed Jose has faith in Bailly / Lindelof. First I had to sub out Smalling, then Ive thrown out De Gea now as no man can save us from that misery.
-8 hit to get Alonso, Mkhi Ederson.. FFS
-8 hit to get Alonso, Mkhi Ederson.. FFS
Yeah same , but had to be done.
He seems to have been playing pretty well. Got a standing ovation in the game against Soton, and received praise on Twitter. Whether he will score goals remains to be seen though. Everton have easy fixtures coming up so we will see, otherwise I will bring in Arni (as I already have Zaha).
Please help. Played my WC. Only pairing I'm undecided on are:
Alonso and Mane v Robertson and Hazard
Ederson
Mendy, Shaw, Alonso/Robertson
Salah, Richarlison, Mkhitaryan, Mane/Hazard
Ings, Aguero, Zaha
Subs: Hamer, Wan-Bissaka, Bennett, Stephens
Alonso and Mane v Robertson and Hazard
Ederson
Mendy, Shaw, Alonso/Robertson
Salah, Richarlison, Mkhitaryan, Mane/Hazard
Ings, Aguero, Zaha
Subs: Hamer, Wan-Bissaka, Bennett, Stephens
I’m leaning towards the Hazard / Robertson combo. Do you reckon Hazard is now ready to start games? I might switch him in for Sanchez, as his price is set to drop tonight. Damn.
I've never heard of him, if that helps.
Robertson or Alonso is a tough decision I need to make
Just took a 4 point drop to get Alonso, Miki, Ings in for Daniels, Mahrez and King. Definitely could've waited on King but trying to build team value early on and reckon he could drop twice this week.
69 points with Zaha, Robertson, Mane and Salah to play.
How do you lot get so many points, unbelievable. I got 36 with Alexander-Arnold, Robertson and Salah to play. Will be a miracle if I go above 50.
Mendy, Alli and Richarlison the only ones who actually got me good points. De Gea, Aubameyang, Tosun, Davies, B. Silva all bad and just getting points for starting.

Had to make a call on getting rid of King, Jota or Mahrez first.
Due to the rotation merry go round, I feel Mahrez might get a start next week meaning he wasn't top priority. I've done King & Jota > Wilson & Mkhi. If Mahrez doesn't put in a proper appearance next week then he is gone.

Exactly same as me. I suspect we have more or less exactly the same team i.e the template.
Even though I own him we need Salah to blank tonight to really push up the rankings to punish all those that captained him.
Took out Sanchez and Jota. Still think Wolves have been unlucky and Jota will come good, but I can't ignore Richarlison when everyone has him.
Want to get rid of Shaw next as I can't see us keeping too many clean sheets in this form.

I toyed with the idea of triple captaining Aguero as I never use those little add ons, really wish I'd of gone for it now
I went with Aubameyang because long term he’s going to be worth more IMO and I did not want to make any transfer in a forward position this week.
Ahhh that familiar feeling of having a shocking week on FPL.
30 points, with Salah (c) to play. Wont save me.
Done my transfers in rage during the United game yesterday so I hope they work out, did Sanchez > Richarlison , Lacazette > Aguero for -4. £2.8m in the bank...do I wait for next week to get rid of Kenedy and upgrade to B.Silva or someone or take another -4pt hit?

Feck, Alonso and Mendy feel like mandatory picks. Richarlison too.
Didn't do the price changes for Saturday or Sunday. But it was a massacre last night...

had a think and I'll actually stick with Mane and Alonso simply because I feel Mane and Hazard will score similar points but Alonso is a likely scorer ahead of Robertson. Thanks for the reply though.
73 points with Salah, Robertson and Wan Bissaka and Tomkins left. Tomkins will be subbed in. Hopefully a Tomkins brace from a Wan Bissaka assist, og else i' m probably looking at -2 for both of them
Shaw, Jota & Tosun > Alonso, Richarlison & Ings. Worth the -8? I already have Alisson, Mendy, Salah, Bilva, Moura, Aguero & Firmino, so I think I could go a couple of weeks without hits after that.
Why not both? They're better than any midfielder in the 7-9 mil bracket i think.
What's your team?
gonna use the wild card as I fell too much behind, any help guys?
current team
Degea- patricio
Davies - Laporte - Bissaka - DOherty - Cedric
Salah - Eriksen - Sanchez - Neves - Cairney
Firmino - Zaha - Vokes
Have already swapped Sanchez with David silva, was thinking of adding ederson, pogba and kane and try to fit all in

71 points so far, Salah, Mane and Robertson will probably add to that tonight. OR 120k means it's the best start of the season in my career - I've never had a worse OR than 50k at the end of the season and managed quadruple numbers as well, but the beginning were ridiculously painful!
Quite knee jerky and hoping to avoid price rises I pulled the trigger on King, Sigurdsson and Bailly to Ings, Mkhi and Alonso for -8 last night. Alonso looks too good under Sarri to be ignored and they have juicy fixtures, got the feeling Mkhi will do very well and looks nailed now (was planning to bring my Arsenal assets GW3 even before the start of the season) and I think Ings is quite underpriced, might end up playing well for Southampton... Let's see what happens. Hate early transfers but at this time of the season feels like it's really necessary!
It's not a bad team, but early WCs are also good in terms of price rises and you sort of know who's nailed and who's not already. Apart from the guys you mentioned, I'd try to fit Richarlison and Mendy in, they really seem essential at the moment.

I would. Hits are always painful, but I'd expect the new lads to outscore them by more than 8 points even in next two weeks. A bit risky, but that's this game, no?
I'd do the same I think, although got a feeling Hazard might be huge this season. Still, I remember he was a very frustrating FPL asset at times, but maybe under Sarri he will be as reliable as he was back in the day. Will consider bringing Eden in for Salah when LFC fixtures get bad.
Can't afford both and Mendy unfortunately.
My team now is
Foster
Mendy Alonso Wan-B
Salah Mane Richarlison BSilva
Aguero Arni Zaha
Patricio Guendouzi Peltier Bednarek
I could downgrade BSilva to Kante, Jorginho, Iwobi or someone else and change Bednarek to Robertson. Could be a decent idea?
Swapped Sanchez for Mkhi and De Gea for Ederson (). Leaves me with 4m in the bank for the next round. I've got no idea yet how to spend it, but hopefully I'll get some answers after the coming fixtures.

I've got no idea yet how to spend it, but hopefully I'll get some answers after the coming fixtures.Did my two free transfer, getting in Alonso before the price raise and got Ings for King to finance it. Happy with my team as Ederson, Mendy, Robertson, Alonso, Salah and Mane are pretty much set-and-forget types. Aguero and Zaha in the attack. Three out four subs - Jota, Wan-Bissaka and Cairney are actually playing weekly.
I've went for Hazard. Chelsea seem like a good attacking unit under Sarri and Hazard has looked sharp in two brief cameo appearances, with two assists in 14mins and 29mins of play. He's in only 12% of teams so it's a different option.
I hope going against the grain pays off.
I hope going against the grain pays off.
Yes I don't think he will 12% for long! Looks like he will flourish under Sarri.
Interesting that Willian came off for Hazard and not Pedro...time will tell who the starting front 3 will be. I don't see why they don't start all 3 with Morata up front, Kante and Jorginho behind.
