Grab, Avoid or Bore Off! – Fantasy Premier League 2019-20
With the resumption of the Premier League, and of course FPL, things are finally back to normal, right? Well, not quite! That said, what is normal these days?
Whilst we have all been diligently following government legislation for what feels like an eternity, football of any description feels like a welcome distraction for some, and others an unnecessary risk. Wherever you sit on that debate we respect your opinion. Whether you’re for or against football without fans matters little, that’s how it’s going to be, so let’s just suck it up and get back to why we’re here; FPL.
Maybe you used a Chip for the DGW that never was, blew your Wildcard preparing for fixtures that didn’t happen, or used your weekly FT’s during the lockdown perfecting your team only for everyone to be given unlimited Free Transfers. Dems the breaks kids.
With unlimited Free Transfers, Chips still to play and a whole host of changes to football that will likely have ramifications for our FPL season finale, we thought what better time to turn to our Amigo’s and see how they plan to see out their season in style before riding off into the sunset… ready to come back again a few weeks later.
Thanks for reading Grab, Avoid or Bore Off!. This article was written by Rosco.

Is Lundstram too risky? Think he’ll be benched alot?
Stone Frog
Yep will be benched a lot, but will get some minutes most games. He will likely get the odd 1 pointer, but may be worth the risk in terms of attacking returns and the odd banked clean sheet when pulled off after 60 minutes.
The B
I’ll avoid.
Smash
I would not want him long term but think he’s prob ok for the double. Will likely get one start and bench appearance
TheDreamers
hi Smash – why ok for the double?
Smash
Two games which means he will start one. I just think he’s worth the risk though I can’t afford him as suspect I’ll be with the cheaper ones
Smash
And he scored 2 in a friendly today
Otieno
I’ve got OConnel Egan Baldock in my BB team. Who should go for Lundy ? 0.3 itb so price isn’t an issue.
Stone Frog
Sterling or Kun for this week, vote now:
MattX
Kun
Smash
Aguero
TheDreamers
Aguero
Loud Atlas
Kun.
Stone Frog
Somewhat unanimous, thanks.
MattX
Which combo?
1. Ederson, Saiss and Saka
2. Ederson, Targett and Cantwell
3. Reina, Walker and Cantwell
4. Krul, Laporte and Douglas Luiz.
Smash
2 I think
MattX
Yeah that’s the first one I came up with and I’m liking it.
TheDreamers
Would prefer Mings in 2 – think same price. Not quite sure Targett is nailed. Then its 2
Who knows what Pep thinks of Walkers activities during lockdown
MattX
Yeah they are the same price. I wasn’t sure on which one. Why would you say Mings? I thought Targett was the first choice?
Smash
Targett is first choice. He should play both I would think. Mings will certainly play both
TheDreamers
Didnt realise how much Targett had played – had considered him in and out

Many thanks to all who answered but in particular to Rosco for sitting in as host and question-master for the first time ever. Although I rather suspect he learnt some valuable life lessons in the process, mainly involving parapets and heads :rofl: :punish:
Rosco
Haha thanks man I’ll keep me head down next time!! :big-lol:
Kop Warrior
Lundstram scores twice in a friendly against Hull today!!!
Smash
Ffs I don’t currently have him
Rosco
He never left!! As anti DGW I am this time I think he stays!
Smash
I’m struggling to find the 0.2
Smash
I think Reece James is injured which means Alonso should definitely start if there were doubts
Rosco
Hmmm the plot thickens!
Smash
Yeah I think I want him for a one off game. Villa can’t defend and whenever he’s featured this season he gets points. He thinks he’s a left forward
Smash
Yeah I know James is a RB but Azpil will always play and plays both sides
