Grab, Avoid or Bore Off!
Looking to entertain whilst not losing the opportunity to be somewhat informative we come to a new addition of Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! We have selected a number of quick questions that we have seen on the minds of fantasy managers this past week and hope the many, many, many years of knowledge from our 3 very senior (Queen of England old) writers will assist you in your decision making. They will follow some semblance of order as explained below, but they are stubborn at best and forever crankheads so answers are never restricted by any rules as you will soon find out. Hope you enjoy and now let us get down to business…
Grab – You need this player on your squad.
Avoid – It’s a trap don’t get suckered in.
Bore off – Could care less either way. Grab him, avoid him or dress him up if you like.

So I started making this WC team as a joke with my back 7 but then I ended up actually not hating the rest of what I could afford for my front 8. Would would make for an interesting second half of the season!
dhruva
My god!!
Ripsaw
Da hell !!!
Cookie
Pancho, wouldn’t like to be at your selection meeting every Friday, when you try and decide who to leave on the bench!!
Pancho
Yeah, that wouldn’t be fun. I’d just have to determine which team had an easier/home game and then play their defense with Baines!
The front 8 would just leave Boyd on the bench and call it a day. t first I thought there’d be no way I would even consider it but now…
Ripsaw
Afternoon guys. I think my wildcard is pretty much locked in. Any thoughts or feedback welcome, cheers.
Cookie
Looks strong RIP, really like it mate

RIP, I like it mate! RVP to Augero I assume?
Ripsaw
Yeah mate nice and easy, on paper at least, RVPs returns are pretty decent over the last 8 games certainly dont mind taking a differential punt on him. Nice to see your still doing so well NZ, Well done mate
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
Ok people, what do we think? Do your worst ripping apart of my wc team?
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
I’ll try attaching the photo shall I?!
NIN
NZ – Once you’ve got a plan for the return of the King, then i think this is a goer. Well balanced squad :thumbup:
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
NIN, yer thats my concerns. I have heard Augero could be back in a few weeks so someone has to go, but who!? Any ideas?
NIN
Tough call. Probably Terry, but i’m not sure what level of defender you could get in. At 4.7m it would have to be a defender that fits in well with your other four. The FFF fixture rotator may shed a bit more light on who that may be. If not Terry then i think you’d be looking at one of Cesc/Di Maria. Good luck choosing which of those to bin :shiftyeyes:
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
Thanks nin. Lol what a drama!!!
NIN
Big time! WC’s should be a stress relief, not add to stress
Ripsaw
I like it mate. Not convinced by Falcao though personally. Like the Pelle inclusion.
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
Bony in talks with city according to sky.
Burnsy
Cookie what’s your thoughts on this mate?
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
Nice Burnsy (but I would say that as its similar to mine!)
Cookie
Burnsy its solid. Keeping Siggy could turn out to be a masterstroke or a complete flop. I do worry slightly for Swansea while Bony is away, but I could be over worrying that.
All else is great, I’m not a massive Pelle lover, but he’s done ok to be fair. Defence and keepers looks excellent.
I assume you’ll chuck someone in Aguero’s place this week and until he returns? Costa?
NIN
+1. I read today that Bony and Gomis want out of Swansea during this window. Whether that’s a plus or a minus for a Sigurdsson pick, remains to be seen.
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
Sorry meant that to go in here: Bony in talks with city according to sky.
Cookie
Bony to City. Great timing Wilf, will join just as they get all their strikers fit again!
NIN
Imagine the damage he will cause, should they get him. Surely Dzeko would be sold in the summer, probably back to Germany, which opens up a large can of worms as to what players they could get on a swap deal type thingy. First name that pops to mind is Draxler.
Silva, Yaya, Aguero, Bony, Draxler. Game over.
Burnsy
Yes I haven’t played my wildcard just yet but I think I will next week. I havent gave the Aguero decision any real thought but I currently have Rooney in his place so I might just play him for the time being. I just don’t find the appeal of other 6-7m options. Pelle served me well earlier in the season and as Soton fixtures become favourable again i’m hoping he’ll start reaping the rewards. Thanks for the answer.
constantine
guys..howzz the wait going?? have played my Jan Wildcard as my team was in very bad shape..both before and after are attached FYR..Any suggestions are appreciated..
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
Cons, nice team mate. Id ditch Taylor as their fixtures are rubbish. Also how do you plan to get Augero in?
James101
BOOM?!!
James101
RMMFWCT?
Ripsaw
Rate my mother fucking wildcard team ???
NZ Alex (Owls Rule and 2 times Pottys prize winner!)
James is that your current draft for WC? Personally I wouldn’t want to double up on Southampton and Arsenal like you have. I would reduce the price of some players (Clyne, Caz, Chadli whichever you decide) and beef up Austin. Just my humble thoughts mate
NIN
Agreed :thumbup:
James101
In all honesty I posted it for fun.
V possible I’ll drop Austin for roon.
