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!

Omg…i got 4 injuries players
Kun,lukaku,sterling,jag
Hopefully their all fit before gw8.
Lukaku and Sterling should be ok. Kun is being assessed, don’t know much about the extent of Jaglieka’s injury
Not really sure what to do I have 2 ft £0 in the bank. Do I need to be looking at Son and if so how would you do it? Do I give up on Ibra seeing others are taking over me in the league or do I hang in in there. Thank you for any help x
Probably leave it til Friday after the press conferences. See what injurioes you have then and the chocie should become clear. If Lukaku is still injured then I would probably sub him out to fund the Son move.
Joanne, wait on Luka and Kun injury news. Easy to do one of them to Deeny and Capoue/Fletcher to Son. Could also use a little beefing up at the back. One of Walker/Kosc/Bellerin would really help give you an anchor nailed on defender to rotate others around.
For now just sit tight with the rest of us though.
Hi Joanne, personally I’d lose Ibra and Fletcher for Son Deeney if that works money wise? You’ll have to wait on Lukaku updates though.
Kun – It doesn’t sound too bad

Thanks Mitro. That’s good news, hope he is fit for Everton. He’s my captain
Some stats for not all the teams..but those that matter for now.
Arsenal leads for most overall points.
Spurs leads way for most point in defence.
Liverpool has most points in Def by some margin.
Man utd has maximum points in forward section.
Cheers Asxe – I do love my stats
Mitro, go take a look @RealHypeTrain and yesterdays tweets – he went through the lot organised them by category too. Makes for an interesting read.
Cheers Init
Greetings all! How is the break treating you all? Yeah, crappy for me too! Any standout performances by PL players for their national team? I’ve tried to follow but haven’t kept up well. Will there be an article or thread devoted to that conversation?
Thanks to all the devoted contributors on the articles and chats!
Hi Pancho, yeah crap isn’t it! Nobody knows which way to turn at present as there are so many potentially injured players who may not in fact be!
There won’t be a specific article on that mate but I’m sure some of the usual ones may touch on their exploits. Speaking of which normal service resumes in about 30 minutes with Guy and his Fixtures Article.
How are we Pancho these IB are dire I have 5 potential injuries at present but suspect that might only be two will have to wait and see , the one that concerns me is Baines going fwd I’m not sure if I should keep him.
Jesus! Just saw how many players are flagged up in my team!! Fingers crossed all are fit or I will be taking a hit 😉
