The end of 2017 doesn't just mean the end of new and arbitrary deadlines by which to judge the best striker in the world. It also means an end to your first FPL Wildcard window - So if you haven't pressed that button - hit that shit like 5 minutes ago! On other noos, we're back to our unusual format this week to keep you abreast of whagwan Fantasy Football wise. So buckle up and get ready for stats and memes galore if you want to enter 2018 swinging from the chandalier raining points down like dolla bills, y'all.
BUY LOW
Andrew Robertson (4.6) -- Liverpool | LEI (H)
All eyes are on the £75m man VVD right now (5.4 if you're interested) but the Fantasy impact of that signing could send further ripples.
First off, any team playing Southampton is deserving of a captain pick (that'd be Lukakucakes this week).
Second off, it makes Liverpool's other defenders much more appealing. Before this transfer I wouldn't touch a player like Robertson with someone else's dick. Now he's potentially a good value asset - and a great one if they sign a goalkeeper with actual human hands rather than flappy porpoise flippers.
Shout out to Trent (Really? Trent?) Alexander-Arnold, who bagged his second goal of the season on the weekend. More of a rotation risk but also 0.4 cheaper if you're squeezing pennies.
It's funny 'cause America's healthcare system is totally fucked
DON'T SELL
Eden Hazard (10.8) -- Chelsea | STO (H)
Eden has been King of not getting it done lately, and hasn't even been completing 90 minutes for Les Blues. He is, however, about to face one of the shoddiest defences in the PL with more injuries than you can shake a Darren Anderton at.
What the fuck is a Tymon?
It's worth sticking with Eden, a proven FPL dynamo, for this week at least. Next week is the derby with Arsenal so if he blanks you have my blessing to throw him out in the New Year, along with those '90s chinos you never wear.
More complicated times
FOOL'S GOLD
Kane / Arnautovic
I've said it once and I'll say it again - The Wham/Spurs match has been rescheduled for GW22. So unless you're SUPREMELY confident in your GW21 lineup, do not spunk a spot on these flamingos right now.
