Grab, Avoid or Bore Off!
To help you decide or just confuse you a bit more, we have asked 3 of our writers to pass judgment on what players you would do well to pick up and what players are better left out of the fray. We hope this is a simple straight forward formula that can assist you in your decision making as we ride out this International Break. I avoided including players like Siggy, Di Maria or Costa as there is really no point. There seems to be overwhelming consensus on these cats.
Grab – You need this player on your squad. On the Def/Keeper categories if they select Grab, they will give us a name or two from said team. Eg. Grab De-Gea
Avoid – It’s a trap don’t get suckered in.
Bore off – If you have him play him, if you don’t have him don’t bother getting him. Really not worth the extra effort.
Then again they may just go off piste and ramble regardless!

Category: Fantasy Premier League, of course.
No! Category is New.
I’m sorry, category is new.
hahaha
My votes in.
Following a glorious victory there’s bound to be an influx of new members so I hope the site doesn’t become impersonal like FFS where you get 1000s of posts everyday and no sensible FPL chat just 1 or 2 word answers (if you’re lucky)
The friendliness of this forums it what sets you guys apart fro the others.
Hammers to be honest that’s how and why we set the chat up deliberately in this format. FFS is a great site but their chat is basically not chat it’s its just one liners. Same with TotalFPL, although a one liner at FFS is pretty much a full blooded convo at Total! We’ve got a great community here and long may it continue.
I’m with you on that.
The only good thing about total was the price prediction. Now thats broken total FPL is pretty much pointless..
Keep up the good work and I hope you win
My vote is in.
Hope we win!!
Hi Guys…
can i get suggestions here about my team…
wanna change the players for incoming GameWeek in 3 – 6 continues…
but abit confused and hard to make the decision with this change, because this team had been over limit..
bank already over 9.5m….
ya…i know its look like crazy and also know that impossible in a team will get all the brilliant player, just can choose from them..
In here i would like to know all experience and opinion from you guy…which player should i rule out to be able to balance and change to which player?
fcsh – I think I understand what you mean. Basically the above team is 9.5mln over budget…..
if I’m right here are 4 possible moves to balance the budget.
Sell Fabianski to a 4mln non-playing keeper……………………………………………saving = 1mln
Sell Ivan to Azpi……………………………………………………………………………………saving = 1.3mln
Sell Silva (you already have Aguero) to a 4.5mln plasying mid……………………saving 4.5mln
Sell Fabregas to Mane…………………………………………………………………………..saving 2.7mln
total saving = 9.5mln
keeps your coverage of City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, United, Spurs & Southampton attack and Baines and Chelsea at the back….
just a suggestion
Hi Cookie
thanks to your suggestion…look interesting…
How do you think if i swap Sterling to Henderson, is it worth to swap?
And Fabianski to non playing keeper, so Guzan will in the 1st squad in my team?
fcsh – Henderson could be worth a punt, I’m not the biggest fan personally, but I will have to swallow my pride and accept he has improved over the last year or so. From a very low base.
If it means you keeping Fabregas then great.
Re keepers – it’s not ideal to have one playing keeper, but 8.5mln on 2 keepers means you can do more elsewhere and takes away the “which one shall I play this week?” scenario!
Cookie
thank you so much for your opinion…
i will consider to swap for it…
pleasure mate
Here is my team thus far…I have 2 FT and looking to make a move…any suggestions?
Hyper Fuse – Nice squad here but the lack of Costa is a worry. I would downgrade Sterling and upgrade one of Welbeck/Pelle to Costa. He’s a must have, for me.
Yes…I have been trying to figure out how to get costa…so lose sterling and either well beck or pellet?
That’s what i would do mate, yes. It’s a tough choice between Welbeck and Pelle though, think i’d lose Welbeck, despite Arsenal’s good fixtures. Costa’s form is just too hot to not have him, for me.
or if you dont want costa just get a backup mid for king… or you can also get a good keeper or an attacking defender!
or just get costa lol cuz as mou said he is just scoring for fun
Hello people of the planet earth!
hope everyone is having a good week!
I come to you the great people to get some great advice on what to do lol
any tips on transfer…. with .8 mil on da bank
p.s i really hope ADM gets injured or just stops getting fpl points period…. he is too expensive now -_-
Hello all,
This is my first season in FPL ( yes yes, massive noob I know :-D)
But id really like your advice regarding my team…
My idea was Shawcross> Baines and Dier> Gibbs with the 2.5 mill i have itb. Also would it be advisable to get Chadli in midfield for this GW ? (He faces ManC?) Better to transfer him next week? Sterling> Chadli based on this GW?
Id really like your input on any changes that would be adviced
Thanks in advance kind peeps
Cheers
A better pic in case the previous 1 wasnt
Hi FplDoc, I’d probably just settle on Dier to Baines this week and leave it at that. Play a 3 5 2 and leave Ulloa out. The alternative is Ulloa to Welbeck I guess. No point getting Chadli with City away especially as Liverpool have QPR.
Sorry you didn’t get an answer earlier although you have put this on an old article so it gets easily lost that way.
Thank You Innit..
Sorry I just joined here coz iv heard a lot about this blog… and it didnt disappoint…
Cheers….
Welcome Fpldoc, great to see you on here – hope you like the site and all
it offers!
hey Fpldoc, (SORRY for the double post everyone, having problems with technology this morning) welcome to the site, I would probably suggest keeping Sterling for the next couple of weeks, he seems to be the main spark in Liverpool’s attack at the moment, and his opportunity to get points will only get greater I would of thought once Sturridge is back which should hopefully be this coming gameweek. If you were really wanting Chadli I would transfer Downing out, but like Innit said, I would wait til next week as Downing vs Burnley sounds better than Chadli vs City, but nothing is ever set in stone
And interestingly over the next 6 gameweeks Both West Ham & Tottenham vs City, Stoke, Aston Villa, Everton & Newcastle……. so very similar fixtures, but hope that helps showing both sides of the story 
Good luck with your debut season
Thanks Gumby
I was thinking the same with Chadli.
I try to spread my players as much as possible in order to get them max games. Hence Downing and the extra 2.5 mill itb
