Fantasy Premier League 18/19

I find with the top players, it rarely matters who they're playing against, they produce the goods. Have been burnt so many times taking Kane out when Spurs have harder games only for him to bang in a couple. I don't know what Salahs stats were V the big boys last season, but they can't have been too shabby.

After this week Liverpool have:

Sat: Spurs (A) - Prem
Tue: PSG (H) - UCL
Sat: Southampton (H) - Prem
Tue: Chelsea (H) - EFL
Sat: Chelsea (a) - Prem
Wed: Napoli (a) - UCL
Sun: City (H) - Prem

Over that run I don't think it's unreasonable to expect, say, Hazard & Alonso to outscore Salah & a 4.0 def. Especially when the former have Bournemouth, Cardiff and West Ham up next.

More importantly though, it's the fun move to make. Who wants to own the same 13m Liverpool player everyone else has all season? :boring:

but last season Liverpool scored plenty in the big games

Oh I have no doubt he's capable of scoring against anyone and likely will. The question is whether he'll score enough in this particular run of fixtures to justify his price tag.

So will he score enough against Leicester, Spurs, Southampton, Chelsea and City to be worth 2.5m more than a Hazard facing Bournemouth, Cardiff, West Ham, Liverpool and Southampton? I'm happy to take the chance on him not doing so, especially as he's only likely to be heavily captained for one of those five games.

I see you logic, i might trade Mane for Hazard after this weekend as it appears Mane isn't on spot kicks like i thought he would be.
 
just traded in Pogba for Bernardo Silva, think Pep will start rotating now.
 
Opinions on Rose playing instead Davies? He did feature against Utd?

You think Poch did is because no one signed him? and he's baiting out other clubs for Jan?

I had Davies and swapped him for Trippier this week.

Trippier is on freekicks and corners and generally gets more assists from open play too. Would have started with him but for the world cup and he started the season anyway. Been waiting to get Davies out.
 
A tonne of players due to drop in price including De Gea, Ward, Peltier, Gudmundsson.

Walker and Davies not far off either.
 
With the window closing soon i can’t decide on whether to keep Shaw in or sub him out for Bellerin (favourable run of fixtures). We haven’t been scoring tons of goals, and our defence is leaking in goals left, right and centre. Bring Van Aanholt instead?
 
Lining up now:

De Gea
Trent Robertson Davies Mendy
Hazard Alli Bernardo Salah
Mitrovic Tosun

Hazard is my captain this week.
 
Captained Mindy as I see a guarantee of a clean sheet plus possible assist/bonus points.
Someone change my mind.

He's my captain too, not sure if I would risk it this week

It makes more sense to wait for double game week but few top players will play 180 minutes over those fixtures because of rotation and fatigue. Besides, I also need to catch up asap.
 
Can you use two cards in one game week? E. G. Triple captain and bench boost together or something?
 
feck fantasy football. I just smiled when Liverpool scored because Mane got the goal and Robinson got the assist :(

Everyone has Aguero captain. Makes it pointless.

If you don't captain him at home to Newcastle (his fav team to score against) then what's the point of having him?

My captains arm band is going between Salah n Aguero all season. Only Kane coming in for Aguero can change that.

No Zaha!

Guendouzi better deliver!

I got Pedro n Zaha. Potential disaster this for me. However Wan Bissaka comes in for Zaha and Boly for Pedro if he doesn't get subbed on.

Possible itk info from Reddit
My mate works with the Palace first team. He told us Zaha was injured at 11:30 on the dot to get an advantage over everyone above him. He also said he's off for a scan today and, "best case he's back for Huddersfield in two weeks. Worst case up to 4 weeks"

Thank feck i got rid of Pedro and Salah for Mkhitaryan and Mane & avoided getting Zaha in. Now just need a brace from Hazard & Agüero (especially from him as he's my captain).
 
I have mane instead of Salah so pretty happy with that Liverpool game.
Got Aguero as captain along with half the country. Went with Mendy as skipper before which backfired badly when Aguero got his hat trick. Not making that mistake again
 
Wild carding to this:

Foster/Hart
Alonso/Trippier/Robertson/Mendy/WB
Mane/Mhikitaryan/Bilva/Richarlison/Hughes
Aguero/Firmino/Jimenez

Might try to get Hazard in if he plays well
 
Salah has been so disappointing so far. £13m and not delivering at all.

Wild carding on the Saturday of a GW?

Bringing Richarlison in now is really weird. Also not convinced Bilva is the right choice, we will see later today perhaps.

It's active for the international break so plenty of tinkering.

Also not bringing in Rich, just leaving him having him from the start.

The main changes are Salah,Pedro,Luiz and Mee for Mane, Alonso, Trippier and Mhikitaryan.

Before today he was averaging 8pts a game. That's more than his average from last season. He returned in every game before today as well.
