It’s transfer deadline-day and one of the most exciting days of the year in the football calendar and possibly one of the most important in terms of fantasy football, as come the end of play today many PL teams will have a different outlook depending on their business on this one day. With FPL taking a mini-break due to international fixtures this is the perfect time for many to reflect on today’s happenings and decide whether any new signings are worth a punt or will impact positively on the players they already have. We kick this article off early doors and look forward to seeing it through until the deadline tonight with all of your rumours, hopes and probably lies (!) along the way. Keep us up to date on anything you hear and most importantly how you think it will affect your fantasy football team…
Transfer Deadline Day
Is Coutinho going to be a bench player now that Balotelli is on the team?
can’t say for sure. but don’t see sterling falling on the bench soon.
maybe if they play 4-3-3 with sturridge going wide, he comes back… but with lallana in the scene too… again a doubt.
at best he will be frequently rotated.
Alright Jasprit, decent enough start so far, on the same rank as me
Onwards and upwards!
Anyone who’s anyone is on 167 points right now. Any other scores are either showing off or a bit shit.
:turtle:
true that chins 😛
We’ll get those hares in front Chins
hahaha Im also on 167…
Chins my friend, I thought we where sharing our team again?! Well I’m on different points so that can’t be happening. Basterd. I feel like a jilted bride at the alter.
Im on 166, can you give me a few pointers to get me the extra point please mate?
yes, pretty happy with my start!
especially in the banterbury H2Hs where there have been some intense matches already.
let’s hope it continues this way… for both of us
does anyone know if TotalFPL has sorted out its player price changes? is it accurate now? which is the most accurate at the moment?
nothing out there is accurate right now.
Carpetburns,
I don’t think so mate. There’s some crazy percentages showing on their site.
How’s your team looking? You jumping on the week 3 wildcard wagon?
hey chins, yea my team isn’t looking too bad actually. want to make a few changes here and there, so might consider a minor point hit here and there, but i dont think any major surgery is needed (at the moment!) so will be holding onto my WC for the time being. will see what deadline day brings…
your team seems decent. you hopping onto the WC bandwagon?
Hello! Wondering if I should do Rooney to Costa? Fixture is in favour of Rooney, form in favour of Costa. Would like to beat the potential price rise on Costa shortly if it happens. My next H2H opponent has them both. Any thoughts appreciated!
even though i would prefer costa over rooney in my team,
seeing how you already have chelsea cover with fabregas and ivanovic and no other united cover… might as well stick with rooney – the switch might just turn out to be a lateral one anyways.
instead, save your transfer as your team looks set for now.
Sounds like solid advice! My only concern is Rooney’s price dropping and Costa’s rising making it harder to do upgrades later
found this through fpldiscovery…
36 points on the bench x_x
if this doesn’t hurt, i don’t know what will.
Ouch!
Worth the WC?
De Gea
Debuchy, Lovren, Caulker (Bruce, Wisdom)
Mata, Ramsey, Siggy, Mutch (El Ahamadi)
Rooney, Balotelli, Sturridge
To this?
Krul (foster)
Clyne, Dier, Duff (Wisdom, Bruce)
Ramsey, Silva, Sterling, Siggy (Cattermole)
Costa, Rooney , Balotelli.
If not what transfers? Thanks
Switching to MLS for a second… did anyone else not captain Donovan for this week?? He’s on 29 points!!!! Sadly, I kept it on Keane who gave me a measly 9 so far… but 29 from Donovan! That’s ridiculous.
I kept the armband on LD again this week,
making it two consecutive 100+ weeks, (sorry to brag, but I don’t ever get the chance 😉 ) now I just need to do the same in the bloody FPL!!
And I agree, it is ridiculous. Not that I’m complaining tho…
I got over 100 pts and I had Keane (c). Now THAT is something to brag about :hippo:
Josh, I had the armband on Keane until I happened to be on twitter 5 mins before deadline and noticed a tweet about the lineups. – It might have been Bryan or Ben Jata. Either way – Thanks to whoever!! (I switched it to LD).
