Fantasy Premier League 18/19

Another reason I prefer to FH in 32. You can't be 100% sure what to build for until then. We already got a curve ball with the Wolves game being brought forward and not rescheduled to 35 like most thought.
That's true. However, I have all chips intact and Aguero TC for DGW32 is a primer.
 
Missed the deadline for last GW so still had the donkey Llorente in the team :wenger: what a letdown he was the last few weeks.

On the bright side had 2 FTs for this week, but now no idea who to captain, would be on one of the City boys but they'll probably be on the bench and come on for 10 mins.

Patricio
Robertson Lindelof Kolasinac Jonny
Salah Mane Sterling Pogba
Aguero Jimenez

Debating getting rid of Salah after this GW to get Kane back for the inevitable hat-trick against Arsenal.
 
2FT, £3.1m ITB, 3 chips available.

Fabianski Button

Lindelof Robertson Doherty Pereira AWB

Son Pogba Salah Hojbjerg Stephens

Jimenez Rashford Aubameyang


Any advice? Thinking of finally ditching Rashford, though if I were to get him again I'd be losing a lot of money
 
Don't want to lose the 0.1 on Auba though. :wenger:
I think it's worth keeping auba even with price drop. He should play 90 mins against a very open Bournemouth team. Aguero, even if he plays, will be a big laggy.

As long as you can bring Aguero back money wise, its fine because team value this late in the season isn't as important.
 
I do wonder how everyone playing the Auba/Aguero hokey cokey is preparing for the blanks or doubles. Seems a needless waste of transfers. Get both if you can't decide. Salah is playing shit so the opportunity is there to do it.

It's going to be either very good or very bad..

Auba has Spurs and us before the blank, so don't see keeping him beyond this GW. Can be a decent shout for BGW33 but that's it. At the same time, Aguero has pretty good fixtures. WHU, BOU, WAT, blank, FUL. All fixtures can cover up the BGW with the points he may score around it.

Salah is well, Salah. Although he seems to have been shifted to the right again, he still ends up scoring out of nowhere and is on penalties. Plus the high ownership.

If everything goes as-is, I will have 8-9 players in BGW31 and a similar number for BGW33. Therefore Salah is important for me.
 
Anyone knows if City leak/puts out their line-up before 1 hour before kick off? Just 30 seconds before would be enough for me..

Sterling seems highly unlikely to start after so many minutes and 120 yesterday, so I'm going for an in-form Barnes instead of 5-25 minutes of Sterling..

Would be really nice to have the sub ready and if City post their line-up, just 30 seconds before FPL deadline closes, switch to Sterling if he starts.

Is this possible? Has anyone done it before?

I have triple Liverpool and 2 everton and Fabianski, so 6 bgw players. If I have 9 for that gw I will be happy. I will get Arno i reckon too.
 
The decision of whether to transfer out Rashford, or wait to see if he plays on Saturday is one of the most difficult I’ve had in ages.

Or is it an easy decision and I’m just agonising over it because it’s Rashford.

Might as well wait and see what Ole says in the presser today. He's usually pretty straight up with injuries unlike some.

Same here. Made worse by Aguero playing 120mins on sunday. Nightmare.

Yeah that’s what I’m hoping for. Same with Wan Bissaka as I can bench him for blank 31, and have him for GW33 if it’s not a long term thing.
 
Jesus is in training - I still reckon Aguero starts but is only given 60 mins. Really unsure if he or Salah is the best option for (C).

I'd go Pogba if it wasn't for all Utd's injuries. Rondon and Jimenez could be decent differentials...

Ah this again. If Aguero comes off after 60 mins then he's likely already scored.
 
Brought Aguero back in for Rashford giving me:

Fabianski
Bednarek - Doherty - Robertson
Salah - Mane - Almiron - Pogba
Jimenez - Aguero - Auba​

Subs: Luiz (vs Spurs), AWB, 4.2mid

Planning for double gameweek 32 then going to free hit in 31. Will need a hit in 33 but not too bothered, will bring in Hazard before hand anyway and save 2FTs.
 
Gone with building up for 31 and 33 and free hitting in GW32.. so building to have good options for gw30, 31+gw33.. we wont know until gw31 what the other games will be, so for me this is the safest strategy combined with having Aguero in case other teams have him and captains him.

Current team: (agu+Barnes in this GW)
Schmeichel
Wan B - Chilwell - Arnold - Kola - Doherty
Pogba - Sterling - Salah - Jota - Maddison
Barnes - Kamara - Aguero

Gw29: Next week Kola will have bad fixtures, so probably Alonso comes on

Gw30: Pogba/Doherty will have bad fixtures from here, so possibly Mane+Clyne comes on as Mane has Burnley (H, 30) Fulham (A 31), Soton (A 33) and Clyne has Huddersfield (A 30), Newcastle (H 31), Burnley (H 33)

GW31: Considering temporarily switching Aguero+1 for Hazard+Arnautovic.. Fraser Another good opportunity for 30, 31 and 33

@CassiusClaymore had you tried something similar??

No chance. If I see a leak from a reliable source I might change something but playing chicken with the deadline is far too much stress. I prefer to set my team up early and leave it alone these days.

Not saying it can't be done. Just park yourself on reddit and keep hitting F5 if you're brave enough.
 
I'm gonna only plan for the short term going forward (except when to use chips). Every time I tried to be clever, is backfired :lol:

Cheers. Where would you look on Reddit? Im old :D

search reddit fantasy PL sub.

Although I have never seen City lineups being leaked, so there's that. but you may find more information regarding training sessions et al.

Don't take it on face value though. The sub convinced many people to go with Sane TC in that DGW, @diarm included.
 
Yeah it'll just come up on the there in a separate thread when it's out.

I guess Twitter would be slightly quicker for the official team news but I can't see you beating the deadline. Too risky imo.

Teamsheets sometimes appear a little early but with City not playing until tomorrow and the deadline being today you've no chance of it this week.
 
Any updates on Laporte's injury?

Would like to keep but if he's out a few weeks may need to change. Was thinking of getting Otamendi in but is there anyone else I should consider?

Not sure if City defence is wise with Laporte and Fernandinho out.
