GW 28 whos going full bore?

Post by Rich2086 »

So how many of the 6 playing teams do you plan to have providing there are no shocks in the cup?

Personally i think i'll play 8 or 9 at maximum i dont want to compromise my overall team for the sake of one week.

Can someone explain me what's going on with GW28?

I'm obviously missing something big...

Probably only 5 or 6, which is fine with me to be honest.

3 Everton (captaining Lukaku) and 2 West Brom already locked in.

Blank GW which can end up with only 3 games, and these teams that are certain to play are mostly end-of-the-table teams (except Everton and West Brom if I'm not mistaken).

Aftet the 5th round of FA Cup so before GW26 I believe (which also has a few blanks).

That seems a little lazy to me. Surely you can get more players than that?

If we get left with just the three games only I'll go with 6-8 players: Lukaku, Funes Mori, Foster, Phillips, Antonio (already in squad) & Siggy for six.

Anyone else I bring in will be because they fit my existing team structure so Coleman, Snodgrass, Carroll as a fifth mid etc.

More likely than not there will be at least 4 games that week, maybe 5. No point in getting knickers in a twist yet. But I could achieve 11 with no hits with the 3 confirmed GW28 games if I wanted to. Whether I would want to is another thing.

Yeah, I agree with you that 11 players from the 3 confirmed games is probably a bad idea.

I'm saving my transfer this week and using my two transfers after the FA Cup weekend so that I'll have maximum flexibility and knowledge to set my team up well for GW28.

5 at the moment - one of those is Holgate though so he might need swapping out.

No plans on bringing people in for the sake of 1 GW, maybe 1 or 2 more.

I could get to 9 or 10 without hits, depending on whether Evans recovered by then. He's 'back next game', so will probably miss out :roll:

At 4.0 if he gets a game and scores points WELL DONE :P That is not a bad line up though.
I have
Foster
Coleman
Brunt
TDavies
Phillips
Snodgrass
and will bring Lukaku in after the next GW
Oxford could beat Borough and make me a full "ish" team. :mrgreen:

Strong chance of a GW29 wildcard to be honest!

5 currently.

Probably bringing in Siggy and Carroll to make it 7. I could push 8 with a hit (Jakupovic) for either Heaton or Grant, don't know if it's worth it though.

I need to sit down and do some proper planning. This morning might be the opportunity, when Mrs Bob is out bothering God with the junior Bobs.

She has her religion, I have mine. We're both worshiping on a Sunday morning! :)

Just make sure you indoctrinate them with a sense of the unfathomable importance and solemn dignity of fantasy football and whining over BPS reshuffles and dodgy assists.

Well you have given a bad link to your fpl team so I can't say exactly but I think every team has place for some Everton/West Brom defenders and Siggy is a nice player to have with the upcoming fixtures.

Oh yeah you're right. Seems like the link has changed over the years.

Perhaps it's time for my second wildcard. Needs careful planning though, with the blanks coming up. What do you think?
