I had considered a few replacements for Abraham before the weekend.

Ings, Jesus, Lacazette, and Kane.

Jesus and Kane didn’t make the final 2.


Ings was where the value was but I got caught up in Arsenals fixtures and how explosive Lacazette can be.

Won’t sell him before his next 2 and his cost is impacting other moves I would have made.

It’s having knock on effects already.

Twerp.

Looking for this seasons version of the excel sheet where you put in your player/team and it would show their upcoming fixtures.

Anyone know where to find it?

Lundstram is now the highest owned player in the game:)

Vardy overtakes the Lord into top spot for ownership.

The love for Lys Mousset is overboard imo. Obviously it's nice to hop on a player when they're on fire.

But he has 5 shots on target from his 15 shots this season. All 5 have gone in.

He has scored +2.70 over his xG and +2.5 above his xA

Again - For 5 milly you're at a shot-to-nothing really, but I wouldn't get on him now.. That time was before this gameweek.

How is this likely to affect them defensively tomorrow? Tighten up?

In fairness, that's a cliché that even in this case shouldn't hold up.

Their U23 coach is taking charge.

Bit of a bench headache. Currently have Lundstrom Robertson and Soy starting with Tomori benched.

Other subs are D.Luiz Lowton and Steklenberg.

Would it be worth -4 to do Lowton/Stek to Kelly/Henderson to play the BB?

He's my rotation-insurance for Christmas. If he's needed, he's got a better chance of being a hero than Greenwood does.

Agree that he's not a starter

Douglas Luiz, Villa, I'd imagine

I think you're right. I don't have any faith in Chelsea keeping a clean sheet.

Apologies guys, didn't even think on David Luiz. Douglas was just my preferred choice of the 4.5 mids back in early GWs.

Think I have the order right anyway, not much faith in Chelsea defence. And might hold the BB to another week

I mean it’s in the name. I didn’t think he died that hard though.

Not sure if this is the right thread, but.....

Anyone else thinking of using free hit for the week Liverpool are at the World Club Cup? They have such good fixtures in the lead up and even afterwards, you don't really want to be without.

I know this is handy for the Skinny weeks or even DGW, but I have 3 Liverpool players and I don't want to need to do major surgery to the team just for this week.

A lot depends on your bench really.

I’ve got two Liverpool, would have added Robertson recently but was put off by the blank GW, so all I need is two half decent bench options, to come in, for that week.

I don’t see that as a big problem. I’m hoping to have 3 half decent bench options for the busy schedule anyway.

I will have to bring (off my bench) two from Cantwell, Rico and Kelly to cover for the Liverpool blank.

I’d rather keep it (free hit chip) but the end of the season will tell what was the best play.

Sorry, I know it's nearly Christmas but we can't let this slide.

Acceptable terminology

5 million
5M
5Mill

Unacceptable terminology

5 Milly
5 Milli
And while we're here, use of the term 'fiddy' instead 50 is strictly prohibited.

jimmii

Anything to be said for us getting an extra fiddy milly? Lund is too expensive for me now hes up to fivey milly.

Porthallian

Can we also please ban the nickname Aggy?
It's Aguero or Kun.
Thank you, please

Your bench is identical to mine, I'll depend on them for gw 18.
Anyone with say 3 Liverpool players and a bench full of non/rarely playing fodder would be in trouble and Free Hit might have to come into play.

I was actually writing it on my phone, so to muster up the effort to write 'million' instead of 'milly' hurt me.

Doesn't quite reach 'Aggy' (instead of Aguero) levels of unbearable surely?
