Play Nice Fantasy EPL - 16/17

[SloaneysDanger]

Really surprised so many are ditching hazard. He's had a slow two weeks but he's not that bad. I've gotta hold him now and hope his value bounces back a bit.

Chelsea's fixtures aren't the easiest so i got.rid of him to allow the arrival of Aguero into my team. I kept Costa and Lukaku over Ibra and got Firmino because our fixtures are good.

He'll definitely do well against us in a fortnight, and wouldn't put it past him to do well against Arsenal.

I wouldn't doubt it either, his last two games are a worry though. I feel the way City are playing it's almost essential having two of their attackers.

Yeah so I have Sterling and Aguero. KdB is definitely an interesting one, but if I got him as well I think having three from the one side is a bit too much.

Yeah it's really only worth having Raheem or KDB in midfield. KDB didn't score as well when Kun was playing earlier in the season so it will be interesting to see whether he can keep the form up.

Went "**** it" & used my wildcard, can't wait to see it backfire on me with a rather average bunch of keepers/defenders. Due to the amount of goals being scored across the league not sure if I'll go 3-4-3 or 4-3-3 most weeks

Heaton (Jakupovic)
Baines, Dann, A Smith, Galloway, Kingsley
KDB, Coutinho, Capoue, Gueye, Marney
Lukaku, Aguero, Kane

You planning on playing Gueye every week? Midfield looks pretty weak and defence too strong, and considering clean sheets have been hard to come by so far this season, spending less in defence is probably the better way to go and investing it into your midfield.

Kane's out for two months mate.

Still got a bit of time to decide, Baines & Dann are both 5.5 but there are plenty of 5.0 defenders worth giving a go that will probably score just as much so that will help

Well......................shit.

Back to the drawing board, at least it will free up money no matter who I go with but might just go for a cheap striker & bring in another good midfielder

Can't go wrong with Costa Lukaku Aguero up top, Capoue and Sterling in midfield, and then just build the rest around that.

 

[LFC2010]

Really considering a 4pt hit to get T Deeney in for Negredo.

Wildcard played

Foster (Jakupovic)
Baines, Walker, Holebas (Smith, Amat)
Sterling, Capoue, Walcott, Antonio (Snodgrass)
Aguero, Zlatan, Lukaku

£0.5 in the bank


I think I'll bring Morgan back in next week for Holebas with my free trade (as Leicester play Man Utd away this weekend)

Not convinced by Walcott. How much is he? Someone like Chadli might be better.

Why would you get rid of Holebas? Watford's fixtures are just about to lighten up, and he's one of their most attacking players.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

What's going on? Not even a mention of Slimani, also considering where we are going? (You might want to bring on Fuchs and/or Albrighton if you have them.)

I get the strong feeling he's going to be the aerial menace that will make managers think twice.

Get him on the downlow while you can.

Is he? Only the 1 goal and no assists so far. Agree that their schedule is definitely easing up though. Thinking Deeney for Rondon over the next fortnight.

At 8.5 he's probably a bit too expensive unless he shows he can keep that output up against better teams than Burnley.

Had the most touches in the attacking third against (I think) West Ham, and takes almost all of their set-pieces - I was paying close attention to him against United ahead of bringing him in. Scored against West Ham, and as their fixtures lighten up I think he'll start producing more. He's basically playing as a winger for them.

Fair enough, I've seen almost nothing of Watford so was only going off stats.

Fair enough, but I think it would've likely been a very different story if we didn't have that aerial thereat. He'll also bring some good in Mahrez as well.

I think he'll do well enough against United and Chelsea thanks to the extra dimension, if not in goals, then at least in assists.

 

[jd2010]

My problem is who to start and who to bench.

Currently on who could get benched: Townsend & Collins

Currently benched: Deeney, Holebas & Ashley Williams

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Bench Collins at all costs.

Theo is $7.5
Arsenal have a good stretch of games after the Chelsea clash, I think he'll keep scoring well

I initially had Morgan and think he's a good year long defender, but wanted somebody just for this weekend, so I haven't looked far ahead... Holebas may very well stay for a while

 

[SloaneysDanger]

It's only a matter of time before Theo gets dropped/injured. He's started 5 games in a row, which is a lot for him, lol.

 

[jd2010]

Yeah don't know why I'd have him start over Ashley Williams who is only away to Bournemouth
