The Mané event….
Sometimes it’s all about nailing your captain and everything else just falls into place. We voted for Mané and we ignored the rumours flying around and the game’s most in form player did us proud. He scored, he assisted, he collected maximum bonus points for a 13pt return. We even had a last minute vote to double check that we were all comfortable sticking with him; and it was fairly unanimous, we even decided to do so on the basis that he would be a differential come the deadline! Doubled to 26 he alone outscored some teams we saw posted on the boards. Digne’s clean sheet and Anderson’s assist were our only other scorers! The former being a particularly welcome and unexpected surprise.
We played with just 10 players but our score of 50 (net 46) saw us comfortably beat the average of 26 and produced a welcome green arrow as we enter DGW territory with all our Chips intact.
Our rank is 22,479 and we are confident of a strong finish.
Last week’s result…
Before we get going on this weeks decision we should remind you that;
THIS WEEKS DEADLINE IS ON SATURDAY 30TH MARCH @ 11:30
This week’s transfer decision…
To confirm we have played our FREE HIT CHIP
We just thought we’d get that out of the way early doors as we usually begin with a review of what budget we had and how many free transfers there are to play with. The answer to the first is still relevant though, just in a different way than usual, in that our Team Value was £103.1m. Not ‘Kane’ high, but not particularly paltry either. Fun fact apropos nothing; the highest TV is an eye-watering £113.9m (albeit it’s deliberately manufactured with a ‘price capture only’ team).
To reiterate our previously laid plans then, we still intend to follow the path of;
– FH32
– GW33 sees our GW31 team return with all those ‘blankers’ in it
– WC34
– BB35
– TC whenever else we see fit
With the formalities out of the way, onto our FH decisions. We won’t go over every single one as many are ‘givens’; the likes of Sterling, Kun, Hazard, Pogba and some defensive combo of Man City / Chelsea / Man United were almost inevitable, and make up the bedrock of 90% of FH teams we are seeing in the comments.
But the devil is often in the detail and so we shall touch briefly on that;
Kane / Higuain – We’d have happily had one or both but in all honesty either one simply meant too many compromises elsewhere for us. Give us an extra couple of mil and we probably could have worked one in, and almost certainly would have done. We had a core though and didn’t want to budge on those.
Rashford / Batshuayi – Given the above we decided on a front line of Kun + 2 mid-priced options to enable our fairly standard FH midfield of Hazard, Sterling, Pogba and Milivo’pen’vic plus the fairly standard FH defence we previously mentioned.
Bats has been on (relatively) fine form since he joined and he carried that on with Belgium over the International Break and is still hugely budget friendly. Rashford’s stock was bumped up by the news that Lukaku looks like he may remain out for a few weeks, therefore pushing Marcus back up into the No. 9 position he flourished in under Ole at the start of his reign (of defiant friendliness). On his ‘yellow flag / injury status’ we have heard good things which suggest he is fine and dandy, should Ole reveal otherwise in his press conference on Friday we shall of course look for a replacement; ooooh… the luxury of a FH and all that.
The defence – This was always just a case of juggling which / how many ‘premium’ ones we could fit in, given the favourable fixtures for all of Chelsea and both Manchester clubs. In the end we settled on a full set of them including a double up on Chelsea. What could possibly go wrong…
Our Captain is Aguero, our Vice is Sterling
Split this one if you may, we genuinely couldn’t. But obviously did, but probably with no real reason.

Hi all, some valuable tips on these boards. I must say, I’m a bit jealous to not have my FH left. Yep boy BB for me. However, I have managed this squad by only taking one hit. BUT, my big problem is the reduced GW. I will only have 7 players if I’m lucky.
It’s going to be tough to field 15 DGW players for GW 35 and use BB, but that’s the plan.
Here is the squad:
Looks decent enough for this week, will take some hurdling ahead though if you’re stuck with that next week and trying to plan for 35 BB at the same time. You won’t be alone in that respect though so I wouldn’t be overly concerned. It’s probably a skewed view of the overall on here with many going FH this week, Rosco posted some stats to suggest that that’s actually a minority approach compared to those on TC overall.
tq init
Only 2 price changes this morning, i thought there would be more today! Deulofeu up and Vardy down!
Very nice team FF247.
what a position to be in both rank and chip wise at this stage of the season.
On for a world class finish here.
Good luck team!
Morning all.
Are there any pressers today, will we hear anymore from OGS?
This is what I have so far…
All the managers who didn’t speak yesterday will speak today.
Just keep a word out for any mutterings from OT. Obviously the main focus yesterday was the OGS appointment.
Your team is strong and will do well.
I bet the timing had something to do with the fact that Norway’s Eliteserien starts tomorrow!
They have good chips in that game. ‘Rich Uncle’ would have been handy this week.
Yes maybe OGS has that more on his mind than putting us out of our misery about Rashford.
Would be good if instead of telling us straight we were presented with a set of enigmatic clues.
Yeah, and I signed up for FPL, not for Scotland Yard, I need clear information rather than some vague clues!
I like this team a lot! It’s very similar to my current draft, same attackers except I don’t have the money for Higuain so I have Bats, double Palace defense, Kepa at goal and a United def! All we now need is news that Rashford is fit and fired up!
Rashford has posted pictures of him in the gym so guess he’s ok
Great news!!
Apparently Lukaku is out of the Watford game as well, that’s good enough for me I think, Rash will start the home game, Wolves away is the tougher game anyway, anything in that would be a bonus!
I’m tempted by Sane all of a sudden instead of Higuain
Definitely has potential to explode and deliver a huge score, I had him in the last double as captain and got than single point so I feel like I just can’t go near him (although of course what happened in the past shouldn’t affect what happens in the future), but still Sane was a good pick back then and Pep truly destroyed everyone who had him, and there’s of course a similar risk this time around as well, I’d say Silva is a lot more nailed and thus safe…
Yeah true I doubt DSilva gets both games but I’d expect him to play first one. Sane is a massive risk. Think he’s played in cup games and is explosive. No guarantee Higuain plays both but Sarri does generally play same team. Giroud is playing well
David Silva could start both games as he’s hasn’t been off on international duty.
KDB is back though
True!
I really need to look at my FH !!!
Might be time lol
I did bring Sterling in for Salah so I have done something!
140 minutes over the last 6 game weeks
True but ain’t he played well in cups recently
Yeah but it’s just risky, high risk high reward I’ll admit! If you’re brave enough or chasing he might work wonders!
So logic here is
Ederson 4pt floor, 12-13 pt ceiling IF City get two clean sheets.
Sané 0pt floor, 15-25 pt ceiling.as we know he’s capable of he plays
Agreed! That’s why I have Kepa instead, will either have Silva or Laporte as the third City player, Laporte’s ceiling is a lot higher than Ederson’s; and Laporte actually outscored Kun and Sterling in GW25
