I was advised to wait until after this weekends FA Cup games to use my wildcard in order to avoid any suspensions/injuries. Is there a good chance that values of players will be much different on Monday than today? I would assume that the difference would be minimal.

Hey, I'm a little computer illiterate. How do you just post a screenshot of your team like that?

Take the screenshot then upload it somewhere like Photobucket, imgur etc...
Post the image link once that's done.

Thanks!

Thanks a ton man. I like some of your picks and am trying to read up on some tips from different sources before I make the big change. Maybe I will try to stick it out a few more GWs until the middle or end of January.

No problem.

Also whoscored.com usually runs a recommended players thing each match week like a day or two before the games to recommend pick ups based on statistical history.

Ok January wildcard time is upon us. My team started out flying out of the gate. For over a month I was running away with the league. Then it started slowing down and struggling a bit and hit rock bottom in early December so I used a free wildcard and have ended up 4th, 3rd, 2nd, and 2nd (in a 4 team league) the last four gameweeks. Despite decent recent trends the last two weeks, I think I need to use my free January wildcard early and try to salvage the season.

Here is my roster atm:

Bank - 0.7

GK
Pantilimon (SUN) - 4.5
Hamer (NEW) - 4.0

DEF
Cahill (CHE) - 6.4
Coloccini (NEW) - 4.5
Hutton (AVL) - 4.3
Duff (BUR) - 4.0
Yun (QPR) - 3.9

MID
Sanchez (ARS) - 10.9
Fabregas (CHE) - 9.3
Eriksen (TOT) - 8.0
Colback (NEW) - 4.8
Marney (BUR) - 4.4

FWD
Van Persie (MUN) - 12.5
Costa (CHE) - 10.8
Austin (QPR) - 6.3

Any tips you guys have?

Already I activated my WC and here is what I have right now...


Bank - 0.0

GK
Foster (WBA) - 4.6
Alnwick (LEI) - 4.0

DEF
Terry (CHE) - 6.6
Bertrand (SOU) - 5.7
Wisdom (WBA) - 4.4
Hutton (AVL) - 4.3
Bruce (HUL) - 3.9

MID
Sanchez (ARS) - 10.9
Hazard (CHE) - 10.7
Silva (MCI) - 9.3
Sigurdsson (SWA) - 6.8
Boyd (BUR) - 4.6

FWD
Van Persie (MUN) - 12.5
Kane (TOT) - 5.6
Berahino (WBA) - 5.4

Holding on to RVP until Aguero is good to go.

Any suggestions?

 

[Basement Cat]

Who to pick? Di Maria or Silva? That is what I have come down to and have no idea who to go with. I have RVP already but would not mind ADM too because Man United have a favorable schedule coming up. Also I plan on swapping out RVP for Aguero in a few weeks. What do you guy think?

 

[YNWA14]

I would say keep Silva for this week and next. Everton and Arsenal are complete messes at the back right now, while I think Southampton are going to have their way with United to be honest. Just IMO. QPR isn't a great team either so switching might not be bad, but ADM is also just coming back from injury.

My concern is that Di Maria's value will increase after this weekend. Silva is at 9.3 and ADM is at 9.4. He came in at 10+ inititially this year and is kind of at a bargain right now. In my back I only have 0.1 so just enough to fit him in right now.

So because of suspensions and the fact that I already used my WC I have to start 2 of the following 3 and need advice:

Boyd (away vs SUN)
Colback (away vs HUL)
Wisdom (home vs TOT) - I am starting Foster in GK too so that might factor in

 

[Jussi]

My team finished 57th in FPL... United players injuries and my hesitancy to use Ashley Young cost me a lot of points. Congrats to "Futbol Americano" and it's manager. Won the HFBoards league by over a 100 points.

I think I will change Sissoko.. I don't trust him...

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Signed up to this league for the first time. My team as follows:

 

[Theon]

To all the Liverpool fans, who will start the most out of Sakho, Lovren and Can?

 

[Jeffrey]

To all the Liverpool fans, who will start the most out of Sakho, Lovren and Can?

Can will now play at midfield.

All Liverpool fans want Sakho to play.

Brendan Rodgers seem to favor Dejan Lovren.

All up in the air until we see if/how Lovren play and if he is dropped for Sakho eventually.

I think in the end Can will play the most but at midfield.

 

[Jussi]

I submitted my team as well. I'll probably have to spend that wild card early again.

 

[Edo]

K: deGea, Elliot
D: Jagielka, Fonte, Coleman, Wnyama, Cedric
M: Hazard, Depay, Payet, Berghuis, Senderos
F: Rooney, Kane, Sakho

Any HF leagues set up for the upcoming season?

The one on the EPL's official site is still going strong. Pretty sure I've finished top 3 for 3 straight years now . Too bad they don't keep history of past seasons.

Cech
Jagielka-Darmian-Coleman
Schneiderlin-Ozil-Hazard-Sterling
Kane-Rooney-Bojan

Butland-O'Shea-Baker-Wanyama

Something seems off about my team and not as confident in it as years past. I usually end up doing a 4-4-2 as the defenders seem to pick up more points than all of the midfielders that are under 7.5 million. Will probably drop Bojan for Wanyama or O'Shea.
