I would say, this week will be almost a status quo in ranks and positions.
90% have captained Kane and V Son.
The difference will come from the outcome of:
Jimenez↔Bamford
Grealish↔Zaha
Wilson↔Werner
Hoping Zaha out scores Grealish this week. Picked him last week and it hurt
It’s very possible Gavy.
My finger was on both of them for a day last week, finally went for Grealish who didn’t disappoint last week but don’t expect miracles every time tbh.
If he was playing for a top 4 team he’d be unreal. If villa score, which the should. More then likely he’ll be involved.
You on captain kane again?
Of course I am. I think, might extend a bit further the Kane experiment. Many people will get scared from the upcoming fixtures and start getting City, Man U or Chelsea players for him. I would rather take a gamble and see if he can deliver, as he has done in the past against the “big guns”.
I’ll be keeping kane 100%. The double with son might be over kill. Could get kdb or Bruno in for him
Well, this is the conundrum. They do well as a pair. In fact, it has been a very long time since we’ve seen two players to compliment each other so well in the EPL. It will be a hard decision to make, we just have to watch those two.
It might sound cruel, but you wish one of those to be injured in situations like this. I hope not.
They are reminding me of suarez and Sturridge from a few seasons back. I’ll keep them both for the city game, will judge on that
Gavy, if you’re keeping them for that then you just keep them, you can’t judge them based on possibly their hardest game of the season.
Get what you mean initt, what I mean more so is if the win that I’d keep them both for the season, and not looking for them both to score. Just look sharp
There’s a lot to be said for simply keeping the best players in regardless.
Want to bring in Vardy for Jimi and have exact money. He is going up tonight…worth chancing it?
Vardy doesn’t play for England, so that’s one thing less to worry about.
So if there isn’t a positive covid test, other illness, injury during the game against Wolves, injury in training, Rebekah going mad on Twitter (again), occurrence of a massive party, etc. – you should be fine :yes:
Vardy may be fine. However all the other flags that you might get and lack of an FT are worth worry about.
Thanks Tornado and Stone Frog. Will take my chances and go with him
Nearly went for Adams as a straight swap for Ings.
Come on Wilson, but come on McCarthy too..
I ditched Adams in GW6 for Jimmy. That was a mistake.
Might be a stupid question, but if a points hit is deducted at the start of the next game week (according to the FPL site – “Each additional transfer you make in the same Gameweek will deduct 4 points from your total score at the start of the next Gameweek”) what happens if you take a hit in GW38 and there is no ‘next gameweek’? Assume it takes the points off your total season score at the end rather than letting you get away with it :dance:
I would imagine so…otherwise it would be a Free Hit!
It means 37 for 38. You can’t make transfers in 38 as there is no 39.
If you take a hit before GW38 deadline then you are still in GW37. So the players you buy play in GW38 and so do the deductions.
You can’t make transfers “in” GW38 because there isn’t a GW39!
:yes: cheers init. Beat me to it.
It took a bit of thinking but as long as we are on the same page then we are probably both correct.
Saturday mornings price changes

Surprised Vestergaard does not have more owners.
Returns of 6,7,7,6,7,6 in last 6 games. No blank when playing 90 mins.
yes he has very good returns. I think a bunch of people (including me) were rash with Southampton assets and sold them after the first couple of weeks.
Next 2 games are not easy on paper, then 2 easy, then 2 hard
Yes, I started the season with KWP then sold him early. :dash:
Me too
I do not like that man. I do not know why.
Also, I believe he’s had to claw his way back into a starting position.
In my view it just that KWP for instance is a better option and you don’t want to clutter your defense with them soton lads
Their fixtures turn now which I’m glad about as I’ve been burnt by their sudden defensive returns
