It's times like these I wish I had more hands so I could give my team four thumbs down. A gut-wrenching Tina ankle-turner for the hiterhto musthaveatallcosts Kane means a lacuna in the striker spot which pretty much has to be filled by Costa, but elsewhere there are tricky decisions to be made: Should you ditch Llorente? Is Snodgrass for the chop? Is there anywhere I can get favourable odds on Jurgen Klopp to eat Pep Guardiola's pie at half time?
El Capitan
Diego Costa (10.6) -- Chelsea | STO (A)
Costa del Gol has been quietly banging them in this season at a steady pace of 0.68 goals per game. Of course Chelsea's newest transfer target/player they obviously never should have sold - Romelu Lukaku - is tempting as eff with a hot streak of 7 goals in his last 5. It's hard to see past Costa's consistency, though. Chelsea just get it done. And in FPL guaranteed returns are the absolute popsicle.
Buy Low
Joshua King (5.6) -- Bournemouth | SWA (H)
Bit of a no-brainer this one, if a little reactive. You can convince yourself it's a good idea by repeating the following to yourself in the mirror. Do it while brushing your teeth for added froth.
I am not chasing points by getting in Joshua King
I fully accept that he will not score a hat-trick every week
I do, however, also recognise his immense value at 5.6
That is very cheap for what appears to be a Norweigan bloke with a posh English name and a knack for scoring goals
I'm doing it. I'm gonna do it. What could go wrong?
Sell High
Dat injured player you got
There are so many players falling foul of the smashy smashy right now that subbing out a fit player seems ridick. Keep an eye on your fave injury Twitterati (we recommend @BenDinnery, who answers quizestions and all), and react accordingly.
Otherwise, just sit chill, Winston. This season's about to climax and you want to have as many Free Transfers in your back poche as poss.
Fool's Gold
Alexis Sanchez (11.5) -- Arsenal | WBA (A)
The Arse are in a bit of a tailspin right now and Sanch wants out for realz. Spending 11.5 on a player who's head's not in the right gaffe is fool's math - even for a player as Fantasy spectcular as Sanch.
