The players i've brought in have already rose, so that compensates for the Aguero fall a little bit. Haven't got a ****ing clue who to bring in for him though, the only other striker in good form is Costa and i've already got him. Might just bring in whichever United striker scores this weekend.
Nearly everyone is taking a 4/8pt hit this week, so don't feel too bad. I took mine before Saturday's fixtures had even ended.
i'm taking a (perhaps foolish) chance on welbeck and i've brought in hazard i'm a little worried i picked those players more for their value than anything else though - i didn't wanna pick cheaper players and have a few million in the bank for several weeks
Chelsea have hull this week and I have to play 4 defenders cos of Austin being out. With no chambers that means a swans, wba, Newcastle and villa defender. I feel ivanovic could make up for the hit almost immediately.
Even a clean sheet from Chelsea and not by the defender you play would only make it break even. Chelsea should keep a clean sheet but you're relying on either bonus points, or the defender you'd play conceding more than 1/yellow card.
Bit of a risk imo but not massive. I'm actually in the same position. Have to play 5 defenders this week and have contemplated going for a chelsea defender but don't think it's worth it, unless you're looking at that transfer long term.
Go for it if you want, definitely could work though!
Bony in for Aguero and Chadli out for Toure. Could've gotten rid of Ramsey instead but he'll likely be back by next weekend and he seems to be getting back on form

Ramsey is very unlikely to be back next weekend. Think it'll be 3/4 weeks.
FFS. The fpl website said 20th of December, how misleading. Nevertheless I'll just switch him out next week if it's really more than 2 weeks. Got a midfield of Toure, Hazard, Siggy and Wanyama currently which would be fine for a couple of weeks
Toure & Ramsey coming in to form, bet you're glad you aren't partaking this season!
Suddenly taking penalties because the ref has Toure (c) doesn't rally constitute 'form'. Ramsey and Toure will never get close to their form last season in terms of FPL returns, go with Silva over Toure at his price.
In terms of the H2H league, I think the plan was for the top 3 from each division to go into a H2H 'final league'- 16 GWs would be required meaning there would be a bit of time from the end of GW19 to set it up.
Hopefully one of you guys can set it up - preferably somebody who is in the top 3 of a league so we don't get that extra team (although it's looking like my team might make the top 3 in Div C )
risky week this week.. looking at the 12 people above me the vast majority have taken hits.. so got to hope they dont pay off, and my make-shift team holds up..
though to be fair, austin over aguaro worked well last week (lucky injury..) and nearlly very very well if the absolute **** face had not gotten himself sent off....
