Definitely thought Sane would be a regular player - and he might be yet.
Fantasy Football 2017/18
- Thread starter FC Ronaldo
- Start date
One Aaron Ramsey.
A lot saying this but I'm not convinced. Willian is the better option until Hazard returns imo. Yes, fixtures are tough but Chelsea will still create and score goals, and he'll no doubt be a big part of that.
Well, Elneny and Xhaka being in the team frees Ramsey from the defensive duty and going to deep. That's my reasoning though. Also, you need to compare their fixtures as well.
Well I did mention fixtures, and like I said even if Chelsea lose every single game there's no doubt they'll have scored goals in those fixtures. Right now, they'll be relying on Willian.
Wonder how much Jese Rodriguez will cost? Could be a decent punt if he's not too expensive.
Didn't start last game though
I went with Willian, saved me £2M, which I can use to bolster elsewhere. Willian generally gives a pretty good return for £7M.
Elneny has been covering for Ramsey and will drop to the bench now Aaron's fully fit again. Xhaka and Ramsey will be the starting CMs but in the 3-4-3 Rambo has licence to roam anyway and could be a great punt at 7m if he can start finding the net regularly again.
I'd probably wait a few weeks though as our fixtures aren't the best (which means you should go for him now as I'm rubbish at FF).
Swapped out Zaha for Ritchie this week. Feels strange to bring in someone who scored a massive 1 point last week but Newcastle have a decent run over the next month or so and looked reasonable against Spuds prior to Jonjo's moment of idiocy.
You should try getting in a Liverpool forward/Midfielder. They may not be defensively great but score a lot of goals.
Question from a Fantasy noob: if I don't use my free transfer this week, do I get 2 free transfers next time?
Yes. But you can't have more than 2 FTs at any time.
Thanks
Really? Didn't know that.
The value increased by 0.4 overnight. Got Mkhi just before the price increase and Lukaku, Salah, Hegazi gained as well.
What's the deal with Danilo though? Is he going to start this weekend?

@FC Ronaldo ive joined, team name is Sambobjammin
Out of interest, what happens if you have 3 players from the same team and that team buys one of your other players meaning you would now have 4 players form the same team?
Interesting. I'm guessing we'll be forced to make a change.
The next time you make a transfer you'll have to remove one.
Yes, but what happens if you don't?
Or will the game tell you you must before proceeding?
Still, if you make no transfers in a game week, then could you have 4 players from the same team for that gameweek?

You're thinking of 1 gameweek? Don't transfer for rest of the season
Not going to be a great gameweek for me. Only team I can put out is
Forster - Cedric, Holding, Darmian, Dunk - De Bruyne, Willian, Eriksen - Lukaku (c), Jesus, Rodriguez
Darmian probably won't start and has already gone down in value, bad call from me.
Going to write this week off and use the 2 FTs for next week more wisely.

Spurs vs Chelsea might pleasantly surprise you. Darmian could start ahead of Blind as well, so it's not all bad.
I'm gonna captain Kane, I think Spurs will smash Chelsea. If it works that'll be great differential but if it doesn't I'll be very far behind everyone who captained Lukaku

Could be a good move. I think he will outscore Lukaku this gw tbh. I had Kane captain for a while but I lost my courage as the deadline drew nearer
Still keeping Lukaku as my captain.

I've been contemplating the same for the past couple of days myself. Far too many negatives with this though. Despite Kane registering more shots than any other striker in GW1, he's still never scored in August. I also like Mersons point about this game. Neither team can really afford to lost this. If Chelsea were to lose 2 on the bounce, media will explode and problems will be developed. As for Spurs, if they lose the first game in Wembley, a stigma can easily develop. Lukaku will do the business this week.
I am tempted to make one of Salah or Mane captain this week. They play against an abysmal Crystal Palace this weekend. Other options include Lukaku, Mkhi and KdB.
Any advice, lads?

Guys, guys?
I'm sticking with Lukaku because Liverpool too unpredictable ATM but Salah is the one whose gettin the goals in that side.
Mane is the creator.
Lukaku captain for me. Not sure how Liverpool will do after a midweek game. They also could have Sturridge back, which might mean a bit of cheeky rotation or one of the front three will be taken off sooner than usual.
I have Danilo too. He's the first one I have to transfer out as he's going to start getting rotated with Mendy sooner or later.
No one can be sure and all 3 are good picks for captain but I'd rather not be in a position where I am hoping a Liverpool player does better than a United one. Then again, emotions are not good for FF. So, Lukaku.
Thanks. Sticking with Lukaku then.
I thought Lukaku's record against Swansea was really good, turns out it's not, he hasn't scored there since his WBA days and only scored 1 goal against them for Everton (and that was at home)
Had a disappointing Gameweek 1
Forster
Bertrand, Luiz, Lindelof
Atsu, Mane, Knockaert, Zaha
Jesus(C) Lukaku, Kane
Elliot, Loftus Cheek, Rangel, Hunemeier
Now I was forced to swap Willian for Zaha.
Lindelof not starting has screwed my team as neither of my other 2 Defenders are starting at the moment. Would you recommend taking a 4 point hit to switch Jones in for Lindelof?
I don't see a chance Victor starts today as he wasn't even on the bench & we wont be playing 352 anytime sooner.
Comments on my team & whether I should put Jones in for 4 points? Jesus had an unlucky Gameweek 1 but Everton are generally City's bogey side isn't it? Who do you guys think I should Captain?

Lukaku or Kane? Hmm.. I've a feeling Kane can do good but it feels better with Big Rom.
Means nothing
I've got 3 liverpool and 3 united players in my side going into this gameweek. This could all go horribly wrong
Just replaced Zaha with Willian. Probably not the best week to do it with Chelsea playing Spurs but he was the best of the 7mil or less players.
Heard Lukaku hasn't scored against Swansea in like 6 games so i've put him as my captain, could be a mistake but i'm confident today!!
