Fantasy Football 2017/18

Can I still join this league? I already have a team that is in a league with my mates. Can I just use that?

Yeah you should be able to join. The code is in one of the original posts though. Let me know if you can’t find it.. I’ll pm it to you

I think the code was removed awhile back for security reasons, coincidentally around the time I asked in the thread(twice) if I could join :lol:

So if there's any chance you could PM the code as well i'd appreciate it, no problem if you can't/won't

The code was shifted to the other thread to control new members joining. Ofcourse that doesn’t compeltely help and neither do I personally care tbh.
 
Who would you guys captain if not Kane? Aguero or Salah?

Salah:
1) Playing against injury-ravaged West Ham defence
2) Scores whether home or away BUT
3) Misses chances, therefore less chances of a haul
4) Might not be on penalties anymore

Aguero:
1) Not sure if starting
2) Decent record against Arsenal but nothing great, BUT
3) If he doesn't start, he probably won't come on unless City are losing. In which case (vc) Salah becomes operational.
4) Special day for him, guard of honor and all. He'll be in the mood.
 
Your mid consists of Sterling who isn't nailed.

What's your bench look like?

Yeah I know Sterling isn't nailed - in the post above yours I said I was considering changing him for that reason.

Trouble is he's the third highest scoring midfielder in the game so I'm not actually sure its worth taking him out! Does it matter if he's rotated (as all City players seem to be) when he's playing so well and consistently getting points.. that's kind of my dilemma with him at the moment.

As long as you have a functional bench, there's no reason not to keep him. Even the best attackers blank 1 in 3 games.

Captaincy, though, is a different issue and that's where I'm stuck. Really want to captain Aguero but for psycho Pep.

Looking at your options above I'd personally go with Salah - really hesitant saying that though as my captaincy picks have been terrible this year :nervous:

I have the (C) on Kane but am actually tempted my Salah as Kane may be subbed early given he recently returned from injury.

On the other hand they may play him and get him to rest during international break
 
Aguero and Jesus will both start and if you have chosen Kun as captain, it’s fine. He has a good record against Arse. Record breaker, new boots, guard of honour. Signs are good for him and 90% people will go for Kane.

Mine as well. Choosing captain is hard this season, especially with a front three. Kane either hauls or blanks. Kun either hauls or doesn't play :lol:

Yeah, have gone with Kun. Better that I get these rebellious decisions out of my system early in the season :wenger:
 
Kun and Kane are both risks but I went for Kane simply because it's easier opposition. Watch Kun score a hat trick.
 
I have 2 free transfers available.
If I make just 1 for the week, am I able to make 2 free transfers for the next gameweek?
 
Scouse girl in work has been second to me all season.

She is on 50 because she captains Salah every week and I'm on 10, I've dropped to 4th now. Bad times.

I need to get rid of Firmino, Monreal and Ritchie.
 
Someone here was considering Salah for Captain... Wonder if they did it.

Ritchie will be axed from my team. Gross looks like a better choice.
 
Glad I got rid of Spurs fullbacks. Rose and Aurier playing today and will surely feature a lot more ahead of Davies and Trippier.
 
Should have trusted my gut and captained Salah. Looks like it could be another poor captaincy choice.
 
Kane has been absolutely terrible against weaker teams at home - 2 points against Burnley, Swansea, Bournemouth and Crystal Palace. Awful.
 
feck sake. Cost myself 8 points to swap Jesus (goal) and Silva (assist) to bring in Kane and Richarlison.

To top it off, I last minute switched Captain from Aguero to Kane :mad:
 
Guardiola and Manchester City is jinxed proof. Can’t jinx them because Guardiola keeps rotating his player and even if they conceded a goal, they know how to score goals to make up for bad defending. If I put Aguero in my team, Jesus will start next week...
 
Got rid of Lukaku a while ago due to his drop in form but our upcoming fixtures look easy on paper but not sure if I should drop Kun or Kane for him? Maybe better off getting a United defender (Jones) for these games...

I wouldn't drop Kane or Kun over Kaku. Maybe get Pogba in and defence for United cover. Mostly defence which consistently gives solid returns. If we are back playing better with more attacking impetus, Lukaku can get another look.

Agree

Wait for a week and then alternate between Aguero and Jesus. :p

With Pogba back, I can see us having a bit of a run. Looking to get in Jones again too.
 
Got Jones in for Cedric, not sure what to do with Lukaku....Considering swapping him for Morata. What are Chelsea's fixtures like.

Lol how have you been surviving without Jonesy? Would actually be better to wait now. Don't know if he's been called up but he might get injured.

Chelsea's fixtures are good. Getting Rom on FT is acceptable, but not for a hit.
 
Boring Foster out and Pope in this week. My team value is £103m now without really even focusing on it this season.

I'll keep my eye on the City trio I have with possibly shifting Sterling out for Pogba when he's back. At the moment if City have a bad week so will I. I don't like too many eggs in the same basket.
 
Heard Phil Jones is injured? Better not be true... Just bought him into my fantasy league team :mad:
 
Thinking of bringing Christensen in if Luiz is out of favour now?

I thought of doing the same but Burnley have fixtures against good attacking teams. Not sure of doubling up since I have Ward.

There are three problems in my team right now, two of which I think will be common:

1) No Lukaku
2) Davies
3) Foster

Which of these is the most urgent and important?
