Play Nice Fantasy EPL - 16/17

[SloaneysDanger]

Aguero for Costa
Allen for Dele Alli

Hate Costa but not as much as I hate Arsenal so bit the bullet there. Means Austin/Gundogan will be my last starter each week depending on fixtures which I'm pretty pleased with.

Now Austin injured... my team keeps getting cursed

yeah my side has gone to shit in 2 weeks

Will probably go -4 and get either Defoe, Benteke or Iheanacho. The latter did really well earlier in the season when Kun was out.

Didn't you have Redmond instead of Austin? Thought you'd have been happy since I'd been pushing for you to get Austin haha.

I had both eventually. Went to Austin when Watford had a tough game. Will ride out the Austin injury at least for 1 week and see how long he is out for

 

[Cruyff14]

Went Rom to Benteke.

 

[Cooldude]

I've had Benteke ages ago but thinking of switching to Defoe

 

[Cruyff14]

I had Defoe from the start of the season I think, or very early on.

Always dominates in Fantasy.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Went Iheanacho instead of Defoe and Tekkers. The latter two have worse fixtures than Nacho, especially Tekkers. Also Nacho scored 20 points in 2 games last time Kun missed games so hopefully he can do well again.

 

[SM]

Gone Kane for Lukaku and Siggy for Firmino.

 

[Cooldude]

Walcott to Hazard once new gameweek starts, a few tough fixtures for Arsenal so Walcott's bound to disappear

 

[SM]

Of course rom scores now I got rid.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

35 including bonus with Hazard (c), Costa, Kane, Firmino and Alonso to come. Bringing in Nacho for Austin turned out great . Siggy, Walcott, Holebas and Amat with the points so far.

 

[jd2010]

Ahhhh Holebas on the bench but as second sub with Gundogan first sub! (Austin starting so one definitely comes in)

Glad I got Siggy a couple of weeks ago. He'll do all he can to keep Swansea up this season many a point to come from him

 

[Cruyff14]

Yeah I ditched Rom for Tekkers but he scored so it's OK.

Siggy did well, I captained Sanchez but that only amounted to 10.

Might take a -4 this week and **** off KDB (and get rid of Matic), so I can bring in Hazard.

Thanks SM for suggesting Siggy.

38 points off 5 players, only one not to give me some sort of return was Anichebe, but that meant Amat got a CS so not too unhappy. Foster, Van Dijk, Hazard, Mane, Costa, Kane still to come so should still improve my rank. Inside top 20k now.

 

[Cruyff14]

40 with Costa, Matic, Azpi, VD and DDG to come.

Thanks SM. Twat

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Had a dream Hazard got a double, let's hope so

 

[Jobe Watson]

Up to 30k rank now. Siggy, Walcott, Amat, Holebas all getting it done.

Was spewing last week. Needed a Coutinho replacement, was a toss up between Walcott and Eriksen. Went Walcott, and Eriksen got about 30 points. Fuuuuu.

Ditched Austin to Benteke this morning. I don't know why; Tekkers is on form but his next 2 fixtures stink. I panicked when I saw he was about to rise in price and hit the trigger... and then he didn't rise anyway. I'd probably go Llorente as a risk/reward if I had my time again. Still have to get rid of that useless sack of **** Coleman.

 

[jd2010]

My Xmas New Years slump has come early. Wondered why I dropped off so bad and it all started from my double transfer few weeks back to Coutinho the week he got in injured!

 

[Cruyff14]

Got 76.

Ditched KDB and Matic for Haz and Lallana.

Up to 35k.

 

[SM]

70 for the week, 169 points in two weeks, pretty happy with my run.

14,830 overall now.

 

[elhadjihenry]

Solid sunday performance put me up to 72 points, picked a good week to trade in Sigursson!

Austin > Benteke this week. Would love to trade up to Lukaku but don't have the transfers and Everton have a tough run coming up so hoping I can swoop on him in a few weeks time. Might try to upgrade on Allen/Gundogan as well but prob not worth the -4.

 

[SM]

Woo, first in all my leagues except for the FPL Show.

 

[Jatz]

Thoughts on these two transfer scenarios?

Option 1 - Swap Benteke for Vardy (easy fixture, finally scored) and Gundogan for Siggy.

Option 2 - Swap Benteke for Ibra (easy fixtures, does he play all games in busy schedule though?) or Kane and Gundogan for Antonio (easy couple of fixtures).
