Grab, Avoid or Bore off!
Welcome to another installment of Grab, Avoid or Bore off for the 2015-16 season. As always we will tackle some of the most unimportant questions in FPL and in life in general. The 3 Amigos are back for another round of very difficult questioning and the occasional FPL question. Will Kun come straight in? Is Mertesacker slower than a dead turtle? Does Ozil see better at night? Will Miss Colombia be given a crown for the embarrassment they caused her? WoW! I am dying to see the answers, so let’s get to it and see what our 3 wise men have in store for us.
[highlight_yellow]This Bore Off was completed a couple of days before GW18, so if some of the questions seem a tad late, that is the reason.[/highlight_yellow]

Top stuff guys
Evening gents.
Hope you had a decent Xmas.
I have my WC active and could do with some feedback.
Feel free to rip my team to shreds.
I am looking at doubling up on Stoke defence. Hence GJ.
Not sure on Ake. Is there a better defender?
Is there a better 4th mid than Walcott?
Is this the time to bring in Kun?
Thanks in advance
Howdy Horse. If i was on a wildcard this week i would definitely have Aguero in there. He might not start against Watford but a striker of his ability against such a woeful defence as Leicester’s…. could get messy. I wouldn’t double up on Stoke or buy Walcott. Ake is a good shout, although, Watford have some harsh fixtures. Cresswell could be a sweet differential.
Cheers NIN.
I got Cresswell in for this GW He went off injured. Is he is now fit to play?. I haven’t followed the news too much over Xmas.
With Kun in I can get a team like this.
Ake can replace Wolf and Francis can replace Simpson.
Spoilt for choice up top!!!
Oh, i didn’t realize that Cressy got injured. That’s a shame but at least you got a haul out of him. That squad looks great but it’s going to take some luck to get the strikers right. Lukaku still has plenty of form behind him and good fixtures ahead so i’d be wary of missing a big score or two from him.
Guys what would you do with this team? Im in a situation where I don’t have a clear transfer to make. Please help
Simpson –> Cresswell and leave the other FT maybe? Doesn’t seem right in any way but, i would bench Ighalo and play the five mid’s.
So who we all captaining then ?? I want to give it to Ozil but am afraid he won’t start.I know Arsenal need to bounce back after yesterday but what bothers me is that when they were 3-0 down and the game was lost Wenger left him on the pitch for the full 90 mins making me think he will be rested tomorrow ?
Either wally or Mahrez
Yeah I’m not sure on the Arsenal rotation. They have so many injuries there is only really Ox that can come in
Haven’t decided yet, Brooky. I haven’t changed it from De Bruyne yet but might actually go with Yaya Toure as capo. Either way, my capo will be a City / Leicester player as that game could get all kinds of silly if both are on form.
Yaya is interesting Nin. Doing well of late.
Yeah mate, i have a feeling he’ll do well against Leicester and could get lucky with pen duty if Aguero doesn’t start, or gets taken off. Once i seen that late surge from him against Arsenal the other week i bought him straight away.
On Ramsey at the moment.
Not sure on who to bench this gw, any input on this lot would be great
I’d probably sell Eriksen for a budget player. He’s very hot-and-cold for his price.
That’s the plan eriksen to get funds for kun next week
Think your good to go with that team.
+1
Thanks I’ll go with this i think
Who is everyone going with as captain? I’m petrified of the rotation that could happen
Not actually looked yet Smash but I figure in this instance you go capo on whoever you would given normal criteria and just cross your fingers. Vice could be key though so maybe play more conservative with that with someone who’s highly unlikely to be rotated. Lukaku would be a good example of this. Only issue then is if your capo gets a cameo! If it happens it happens. C’est la vie.
I’m not sure if anyone’s safe
Precisely what’s leaning me toward Yaya Toure. He only played an hour against Sundershite so he should walk all over the Leicester mid’s.
Yeah Yaya and Aguero will almost certainly start I expect
Same with De Bruyne really but he might get hauled off early like Yaya did this week, around the 60 mark or so.
Smash – De Bruyne or Yaya, for me. Leicester boys are worth a shout too i reckon.
Yeah that game has got to have goals. KDB only does it at home I think
KdB has 90 points, 70 of those accrued at home and 7 of his 20 away were in one game.
Yaya has 83 total and 44 of those were away.
Evening init. Those are some interesting numbers mate. Still fancy De Bruyne vs Leicester’s defence though but might go for Yaya as capo.
You making any moves for this week?
Hey NIN, yeah thought that may nudge you over to Yaya! He’s traditionally streaky with his goals too so another there wouldn’t be the biggest surprise. You won’t like my move at all! Just bought your mate Wally
Yeah, as i said to Dreamers a while ago, once i seen that late surge vs Arsenal my mind was made up. When he’s on the rampage he’s unstoppable. A screamer and a peno will do nicely
Well. I. Never. It’s like that is it? Yikes :shiftyeyes:
Hey Init / Nun – I’m going Silva on that exact rational: KDB may be rested/early subbed and doesn’t have great stats away and Silva is recovering while playing. If Aguero starts anybody can go riot In that game of course. Best of luck.
Nun = NIN + kun!
I wasn’t calling you a Wally, you wally! I just know you won’t approve of him coming in!
I know what you meant mate, haha. My squad is linked mate, thinking of keeping the team as is but finally bin Sako for Stanislas or Gosling. Thoughts?
(Not willing to go for the selection headache route)
Seems a bit of a waste really as you have 2 playing subs and it’s not like you’d actively play either in the next 2 anyway?
No, wouldn’t play at all really unless necessary. Just thought getting a starter for this schedule was the way to go as the 11 looks solid i think. Would you bank the Ft then, or make a different move maybe?
Aguero.
