Play Nice Fantasy EPL - 16/17

[jd2010]

I'd rather have someone who is guaranteed to start every week as my M5 (Allen is mine)

I've got even more faith in Allen that! He is my M4.

I generally rotate the 4 and 5 based on fixture though (M3 too for that matter)

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Would be hard to drop him in this sort of form for Nolito

City haven't had a settled line-up all season. Players have been in and out of the side through injury/suspension, so it's hard to say at this stage who is preferred over who.

You're way ahead of me so I'm in no place to criticize lol. I just brought Coutinho in to have a midfield of Sanchez, Coutinho, Firmino, Sterling and Allen.

Fernandinho, Gundogan, Silva, KDB and Sterling have only started 2 games together in 6 PL games since Gundogan debuted in week 5 against Bournemouth. I have no idea who has started during non-PL games. There's been three occasions in the last 6 weeks where Gundogan has only started because 1) Nolito was suspended 2) Silva was injured and 3) KDB wasn't fit enough to start (last week).

I don't think Gundogan will start every week but he has looked promising. I think he's more likely to start if Pep plays 3-4-3.

And how many wins have they had in that time?

Sanchez Walcott firmino mane allen for me, with theo on the chopping block.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

3, 2 draws and a loss to Spurs.

All I'm saying is Pep likes switching things around, so Gundogan's place in the side isn't 100% guaranteed.

Probably a good idea to chop Theo since Arsenal's good fixtures are ending.

Knew it was a mistake getting him. [emoji24]

That's very impressive. Got me covered there. Only thing is I'm not sold on having teammates in the same position. But pool tend to play Firmino as a striker so I like it. I've been angling to get Firm in as well (got Mane instead of Coutinho)

Not that impressive, I'm forced to play 3-5-2 since I have Stuani on the bench lol. I've never been on the teammates in same position thing either but with our fixtures coming up, it was hard to pass on Coutinho.

Yep I have stuani third striker lol.

 

[Cooldude]

I had Coutinho and I've been happy

Defense is under performing for me though, but probably coz Terry's out injured and that's hurt me, if he played and he was involved in all those clean sheets it would've been nice

 

[Cruyff14]

My defense is Jolebas, Bellerin, Shaw (Amat & McAuley). Need to upgrade but can't really afford it.

Sterling needs the flick, but I am not sure if switching to Lallana is worth it. Having said that, it will free up money to upgrade my defence.

Not sure on DDG atm either.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Lallana is a risk imo. It's either him or Wijnaldum starting for us since Can and Hendo seem locks in midfield for the time being.

I'd keep Raheem since they play Boro this week but if he blanks there he needs to go.

 

[Broar]

Has taken me almost 50 weeks but I'm finally going to use the all out attack chip this weekend!

Will be playing a front 8 of:

Sanchez, Firmino, Payet, Chadli, Allen

Aguero, Lukaku, Austin.

 

[Broar]

Well looks like I won't be doing that now.

 

[SM]

Well looks like I won't be doing that now.

Why?

 

[Jatz]

Well looks like I won't be doing that now.

Why not?

 

[Broar]

Why?

Chadli injured.

Will start Holebas I guess.

 

[jd2010]

The -12 looks like being worth it thanks to Hazard

Hazard 19 v Sterling 0
Gundogan 3 v Payet 2
Redmond v Capoue
Van Dijk v Williams 0

Unless Capoue out scores the Southampton two by more than 6 it pays off in week one

 

[Cruyff14]

I am on 41 with Bellerin, Shaw, DDG, Capoue and Holebas to come.

Sterling is gone 100%.

Really want Hazard but he is too expensive and it leaves me with not enough to bring in a replacement unless I ditch an expensive player.

Sterling > Lallana and Shaw > Azpi is super tempting.

Just not sure on the output of Lallana.

 

[Cruyff14]

Pedro is another option in the Lallana mould and the same price. Hm.

 

[Cruyff14]

Matic at 5 is great value, which also allows me to get Azpi. I get my cap of Chelsea players bring them two in (also have Costa), but it'd be crazy not to with the form they're in.

And it also leaves me with 2.6 in the bank to upgrade further next week.

Yep, Hazard did well.
