Play Nice Fantasy EPL - 16/17

[Cruyff14]

Ditched Sterling for Matic and copped a -4 to bring in Azpi for Shaw.

Got 2.6 in the bank to further upgrade when I get a FT. Will ship out Capoue for someone most likely.

How'd that Redmond goal go jd2010?

Firmino and Mane saving me this week.

It's a marathon not a sprint my friend. Injury aside he is in my side for 28 GWs

Big call.

 

[jd2010]

Down to 4658 overall.

The gap is at 49 points SM. What was it last time? Think you outscored me this week once the -12 comes into it. But not by much which I'll take

It was 52, so I gained 3 points on you. Bringing in Hazard and Costa for next week so there won't be too many uniques between us.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Holebas and Smith both suspended now due to accumulation of yellow cards, and Amat doesn't play, so I have 2 defenders available. I'm planning on getting Hazard for Sterling but I need to downgrade elsewhere, and it can't be Bellerin since he's only 1 of 2 defenders available for me, so it looks like a -8 is coming.

Had a good week last week and then right back to poor. Doesn't seem to be working for me this season, whatever I do.

Can you go Holebas or Smith to a very cheap defender who will play next week?

Also might be worth the 0 in defence

 

[Jatz]

Bringing in Hazard was worth the -4 it cost.

What's Callum Wilson's injury?

I'm in the same boat, trade out options look shithouse for both so I'll likely hold.

Too late, did my trades before Hazard rose and Sterling dropped last night. I'm not happy with them, but I needed Hazard.

Sanchez, Sterling and Smith > Hazard, Walcott and Evans. I am hoping Walcott can score similar to Sanchez over the next few weeks. Alexis hasn't scored too well in the last 4-5 weeks besides against Sunderland and Theo has been in good form this season. Sterling had to go after 4 consecutive blanks and then rested last weekend. With only 2 defenders available and Brom's good fixtures, hopefully Evans can get a couple of clean sheets.

I normally wouldn't make trades like this but Hazard is essential, regardless of who he plays IMO. The other reason I made these trades is because the week after I will go Stuani > Austin to rid myself of a bench fodder.

Pretty good team. It's not usually wise to go -4 for a defender but if you can get Alonso or Azpi it might be.

 

[go you pups]

I don't think I've looked at my team since the prelim


Same with superbru

It's going to be fugly

 

[jd2010]

My worst week of the season. Only player to do well is the one I wanted to not start Van Dijk!

Even Heaton is letting me down. Faith in this squad still they've done enough for me to have an off week

Foster woohoo.

Defoe scored a third of my total points this week!

Although my own fault for not checking the team prior to kickoff, Capoue with 10 points on the bench

 

[Cruyff14]

Scored 56.

Rank is approx 130k overall, 3724 in Aus.

 

[jd2010]

Damn out of the top 10k

 

[SloaneysDanger]

It just keeps getting worse for me, despite having a pretty good team on paper. I should do better over the next few weeks if my players perform to the standard which is expected of them. Will get Austin for Stuani this week so I can go back to playing 3-4-3 for the first time in weeks.

Hoping we can smash Sunderland this week and my double Liverpool midfield benefits greatly. Will also consider Aguero > Costa after their next two games if Kun's form doesn't improve. If it does, Lukaku will be the one to go. Costa is just beasting and doesn't look like slowing down any time soon, so I'm hoping the next two tough fixtures Chelsea has he doesn't score too well.

 

[inwhiterooms]

I'm sure points will normalize this week, none of the popular players got on the score sheet which made it hard for most. I ended up with 30.

Offed Allen for De Roon as a bit of bench fodder and some pocket change for Kane next week.

 

[SM]

Stuani out for Anichebe, which seems common.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Have never owned, and probably will never own Anichebe. He's that player who plays a few good games in a row then becomes irrelevant again for 12 months.

Doesn't matter. 4.5 and will go up in price a second time before the games. I never started Stuani, and I'll never start Anichebe, but easy cash and gives me a boost in the bank.
