Yeah I had Holebas come in as sub, so I wasn't complaining last week, but ideally want my first choice playing, I won't get lucky every week.......Him not playing allowed King Wan-Bissaka to come in as a sub
Nice team - I think Silva or Aguero would make better captain options though. Maybe start Trippier ahead of Holebas or Luiz - he probably won't play, but if he does I imagine it'll mean points. Unless he comes on for the final 5 which would be annoying.What do people think about the below?
Was thinking Kante in for Cairney as Fulham looked so shit last week. Other option is Trippier out and Alonso in. Or I could leave as is and have 2 free transfers for next week. Have £1m in the bank.

I’d play Robertson ahead of Holebas and maybe consider Jota -> Bernardo for free, if you fancy the other Silva to get some gametime. Other than that all looks great and I love Mendy (C) - considering him myself!What do people think about the below?

I have a feeling Trippier might just come on for the last 10 mins or something, so think I'll leave him out. He wasn't even on the bench last week. I did think about Salah, but he's so expensive and Mane did OK last year points-wise for £3.5m less. I'll probably regret that in a few weeks though Salah looked great last week, but West Ham were pretty shit and it won't be that easy every week.Nice team - I think Silva or Aguero would make better captain options though.

No Salah though - you're brave.
I need this impending decision to be validated. Yes, no?I'm considering the -4 hit too, swapping out Alexis for Bernardo Silva. Gives me a fair amount of change in the bank too, and if Sanchez scores a brace or something at the weekend, my elation of IRL football will probably eclipse my disappointment of fantasy football.
Given the difference in price I’d go for it. Sanchez didn’t look great last week but he can always pop up with a goal but overall silva is going to get more chances I thinkI need this impending decision to be validated. Yes, no?
You're barmy having Robertson on the bench. They may concede but it's all about his assist potential anyway.What do people think about the below?

Yeah that is a good point, thanks for mentioning.You're barmy having Robertson on the bench. They may concede but it's all about his assist potential anyway.
My whole Fantasy-season will be about jinxing Liverpool, for reals. Salah capatain away to all the top team, especially us.Yeah that is a good point, thanks for mentioning.
Think I’ll swap Robertson for holebas. I do think Liverpool will struggle a bit though but you’re right he could get an assist anyway
I would keep the same team, no transfers. Play Robertson and Trippier instead of Holebas and Jota and you have pretty nice team. King is probably the biggest liability, but West Ham's defence is awuful, so ce can get points. See what happens in GW2 and then you will have better idea what exactly to change and you will have two free transfers to do it.What do people think about the below?

It looks better than mine. I wouldn't do anything this week if I were you.Good morning guys,
Can you please advise if my team is good enough for this week or if should make a change, etc..
Alisson (Speroni)
Azpiliqueta - Stones - Shaw (Schindler + Kelly)
Sanchez - Jorginho - Eriksen - Mane - Fernandinho
Aguero (C) - Firminio (Kamara)
Really appreciated guys!
Yeah KDB at £9.5m in a few months would be lovely.17/08/2018 Price Changes
Overnight Rises:
Bernardo Silva £7.6M
Overnight Fallers:
Bolasie £5.9M
Lookman £5.4M
Albrighton £5.4M
Shaqiri £7.4M
De Bruyne £9.9M
Keep on falling KdB!
i think Pedro's days are numbered as Hazard will be coming back shortly, maybe even this weekend. Fulham looked very average (I think they've signed 10 players or something like that, so only 1/2 the team are the team that got them promoted) and as good as Sessegnon is I don't think he'll have as big an impact this season, especially in a team that might struggle. Personally I'm going to steer clear of Arsenal forwards as they looked (understandably) a bit disjointed. Might get one in later when they start to organise themselves and have some easier opponents.Foster (Speroni)
Azpilicueta - Mendy - Doherty (Bellerin + Ban-Wissaka)
Sanchez - Pedro - Sessegnon - Salah (c) (Kenedy)
King - Lazazette - Tosun
My team , putting Bellerin on the bench hoping the Doherty outscores him. I feel like I have a lot of players who could be getting binned if they don't play. Pedro, Lacazette, Sessegnon, Sanchez !
Yes I think Arsenal, after the Chelsea game, have a nice run to get themselves in some form. Really thought Pedro was nailing down him spot, but maybe Willian is taking his place.i think Pedro's days are numbered as Hazard will be coming back shortly, maybe even this weekend.

That's a decent team.Any advice would be great:
Ederson (Fabianski)
Robertson Trippier Mandy
Neves Jorginho B.Silva Salah Sanchez
Arnautovic Zaha
Subs
Duffy
Bennett
Rashford
I replaced Sessengnon with Jorginho so will transfer Rashers out next GW.That's a decent team.
I would save the free transfer, and get rid of Rashford for someone better. Way to expensive player to have sitting on the bench. Why not have Kamara, then. Rashford won't play that many minutes this year anyway, and probably be subbed on most of the time, or subbed off when he manage to get a start. Tosun, Mitrovic, Jimenez and King are all equally priced or cheaper. Get rid, buy a cheaper option for the forward position, upgrade Arnautovic.
I would only suggest a replacement for Fernandinho, taking up a potential City place.Good morning guys,

Agreed on the last part. Saving my FT to swap Sanchez -> B. Silva and Arnautovic -> Firmino. If things go as planned, of course. Also considering De Gea for Hart (to free up 1.5).I replaced Sessengnon with Jorginho so will transfer Rashers out next GW.
Sanchez needs to go as well.
Depends. Every time I try the old "get two cheapish keepers and rotate based on fixtures" method, I screw up. Therefore, this season, i've done a "set and forget" with DDG but might swap him for Kepa.What is everyone tactic with goalies? I had de gea in my team most of last season and really not sure if it's a waste of money? Should I scale down on the goalie and invest the extra cash elsewhere?
Why don't you just get a normal cheap keeper and use him without rotating? The difference between a 4.5m Fabianski and a 6m DDG was only something like 20pts last year.Depends.

Two cheap keepers (4.5 each) who rotate would cost a total of 9 but I'd prefer one good keeper (5.5) and one that's (4.0), totalling at 9.5.
That extra .5 will mean no headaches and a keeper that's expected plenty clean sheets over the season.
Picked Ederson but I can understand someone picking Fabianski. Don't think a 2nd keeper is worth spending more than the minimum 4 on in any case.What is everyone tactic with goalies?

I'm guessing you have a sub who will step in and get you a decentish total while you wait this GW out?I'm unable to swap out De Bruyne due to already swapping out Lovren this week. Sucks that I'll lose value on him. Going to bring in Pogba as soon as the next gameweek starts before any further changes. Cancels my plan to bring in Lukaku. I might just do it as well and take a 4pt hit.
Was gonna set and forget Kepa but needed the extra £0.5 so went with a 2 x £4.5m rotation (McCarthy/Patricio). I'll probably go back to the set and forget option when I wildcard though if I've got the funds. And it might not necessarily even be a £5m+ keeper.What is everyone tactic with goalies?
