The Boot Room – Rate My Team GW 8 – FPL Fantasy Football Premier League
Whether your arrows were a happy green or a more depressing red, we get to sit on our thumbs for a while as the internationals take precedence. We get to sit back, relax and enjoy watching our valuable FPL assets get flogged to death in meaningless qualifiers and even more meaningless friendlies having flown half way around the world for the pleasure. Now what could possibly go wrong?! However, there is plenty to think about and plan for. We will be back with the usual raft of articles next week ahead of GW8 but in the meantime we encourage you to plan ahead and post your teams and questions in the chat below. You can either go old school and type it out or you can post a picture of it along with the issues or transfers which you are pondering. Either way you are sure to get plenty of answers from our great community. As usual though if you don’t have any pressing team issues you can simply post your thoughts and feelings on any subject you wish. Within reason anyway!

I am planning to do Rashford to Deeney.
Thoughts?
charlcupido , I’m in the same dilemma buddy.But, i’m holding on to rashford for this week. I don’t see Watford against boro a high scoring game. Moreover you already have capoue to get you Watford cover.
Nothing wrong with that move charl, I’d just wait and see what the Lukaku news if first though.
Thanks Guys, i will hold off till this weeks pressers
Hate that we have another week to wait for proper football to start. I hate international football so much.
But here is my team
Admiral..Nothing much to do there.I’d play Mc Auley ahead of Valencia as I don’t see Utd keeping a CS away at Anfield. Also, He contradicts Firmino..rest if you have an FT left still, i’d suggest you to get Holebas for Valencia and save some money for future weeks.cheers
Lukaku injured and feared not to start..no need to worry as I have Barry for the rescue..f**k
Struggling with this lot. Not sure what to do.
1. Double WBA is a concern
2. Shaw’s not guaranteed a start and United not keeping CSs
3. Sterling and Lukaku potentially not starting
Thinking Shaw -> Walker and Foster -> Marshall for this week if everyone else comes through the IB fit.
pancho, best time for AOA?
Constantine, I could do that. Still not sure what to do with this defense though. Could just get Vert for Shaw straight swap, but I think Walker will far outscore him with attacking points. Willing to take a hit as I think it’ll pay off over the long-run. Thoughts on this?
Pancho – moves seem ok mate, just hold off doing anything until we know what is going on with lukaku and sterling
Rate my team pls.
i like team one more..city have cracking fixtures ahead. would like Son in the team though..he’s bang in form..scored for s.korea against qatar too
Thanks mate
No2
Both teams are great but I would have Son and Sterling and get rid of Antonio. West Ham are so hit and miss that you don’t know what’s going to happen from match to match. At least Manchester City and Spurs are consistent at the moment.
Thnks rids
Antonio is inform, I wont sell him
I have sold Antonio ,Capoue and lukaku this week.. to get son,aguero,deeney. I think Capoue was a fluke..and expecting him to score every week is just too much…son is better choice than Antonio for couple of weeks.
