A Gameweek tainted by no less than three 0-0 stalemates still saw several protagonists produce strong statistical shifts. Jordi Gomez and Stephane Sessegnon led the way in our ICT Index rankings and are amongst the players picked out in this week’s Big Numbers, our summary of some of the key stats on show from the weekend’s action…
Can you make room for him though. That's the question!
Open Controls
Noble to Sess for the next few fixtures looks like a slam dunk.
Open ControlsYep. Looks good.
I'm not selling Michu for his home game with WBA. I know Sess plays QPR but I'm still a little sceptical of Sunderland's attack.Open Controls
I hear where you're coming from. Especially if you have 3 big hitters + Sterling & Fellaini.
Open Controls
He seems a perfect Michu replacement. Especially with "form" and fixtures. This is a 180 from me btw, it's only because of watching Michu against Liverpool though.
Open ControlsWhy, was Michu pants?
He managed a few shots but his stats weren't amazing.Open Controls
Read on sunderland forums that he may move to the wing.. (With Saha and Fletcher up front). Sounds bad on paper but he;s even more productive on the wing
Open Controlsagh really ?? Prefer his position now….
Open Controls
i have pienaar and considerin swappin him for Sessegnon.. Cant help but feel that Fellaini will outscore Sess next 3 weeks even without a double, so tempted by him and Fletcher instead
Open Controls
How about for Yaya?
Before he got his (rather unexpected) 3 BAPS this week, he was lined up for a swap with Sess. Now I'm not so sure!Open Controlsdrop Yaya asap
Open Controls
need ur help. i have mata n hazard in my team. should i drop one of them or just keep them? thank you
Open Controls
RVP is too expensive. Most teams without him are doing as well as those with him. Who's getting rid?
Open ControlsI want to get rid so bad but that's the moment he will score a hat trick or something. Will evaluate after West Ham and Reading..
Open ControlsHe is more than capable of scoring well most weeks. Though so are Tevez Suarez Ba Aguero and some of the cheap picks if you rotate them about, even when he was to scorer a lot of the teams at the very top had never had him and they benefitted by investing the cash elsewhere in their side.
Open Controls
God yeah. Yesterday.
Open Controls
Let's give it until after the West Ham game. If he continues his average goal threat and United continue to share the attacking points, a straight swap to Suarez might be on the cards for me.
Just be glad that his blank came in a week where a lot of strikers fired a blank!Open ControlsAlthough a Suarez booking and a good performance from RVP will have us sweating!
Open Controls
I can't being myself to do it, just gonna keep captaining him waiting for that 40 pointer!
Open Controls
I'm might get rid if he blanks against West Ham.
RVP and Jelavic to Aguero and Suarez is on the cards.Open ControlsSuarez should be in every team imo.
Open Controls
Okey dokey. 80 odd points to make up.
All the Ba & Berba owners:
Who to (c) in gw 16 surely influence what we to with the "Ba" boys.
Speak up.Open Controls😕
Like i've been doing the last 2 weeks.
Yeah right.Open ControlsI'm talking gw 16.
United vs Citeh(a)
No thanks.Open ControlsHe's due. 🙄
Open Controls
Have another drink. 😉
Open ControlsThat's what weekends are for. At the office now, so it's FPL time.
Open Controls
Does any knowledgable soul have any knowledgable knowledge of how Theo Walcott is going... do we think he'll be playing mid week?
Open Controls
Pick one:
A) Bale in for Ben Arfa and Gera in for Peinaar
B) Giroud in for Berba and Sterling in for Ben Arfa
C) Fellaini in for Peinaar and Sterling in for Ben Arfa
D) Defoe in for Berba and Fellaini in for Ben ArfaOpen Controls
likes B
Open Controls
By Thursday everyne will look @ TOT NEW qpr liv SOT and try their best to get Berbs in.. Me included
Open ControlsBale and sterling an option?
Open ControlsReply fail.:(
Open Controls
lost in last page.....ramirez or lallana ( i will ditch pieenar)
Open ControlsDon't want to take a hit....so gotta choose between one of those transfers
A) Michu to Sess
B) Hange (susp) to 5.2def (probably ridgewell)
C) Maloney (doubt) to puncheon
D) Friedel to Begovic/Mignolet (both would mean doubling on their def) btw other keeper is jussi
Please help guys...which to do?Open ControlsWhat I don't understand is why as a Chelsea fan you would go to one of the most important games of the season where it's the first game in charge of the new manager (like it or not) and protest against his appointment.
Open ControlsBTW, Baines?
One more week?Open ControlsUntil he stops having significant attacking threat and/or when other 'elite' defenders become ownable.
Open ControlsI believe he nearly scored again this week?
I stopped watching with 5 min to go. Just cant take it. Last kick of the game it was I'm told when the CS went down the toilet?
Frustrating.Open ControlsYeah, frustrating, but the fact they nearly kept one is surely better than conceding early or conceding more than one.
He had 2 shots on target this week. I was a little surprised by the lack of bonus. You almost take it for granted!Open Controls
There are enough value defenders banking the 6 points, downgrade and re-invest the extra 2-2.5 million in ba to aguero (requires bit extra change)
Open ControlsI don't have Ba though. I'm happy with my team and I don't feel upgrading any of my attackers would be worth the investment. Plus I want to keep a slot for an 'elite' defender at all times.
Open Controls
I struggle to get my head aroun it as well. Aren't they bothered about winning the league?
Open ControlsWhy? From all reports he plays a very conservative defensive approach which bores teams to death. This is not what we need?
Open ControlsBy we I mean owners of the likes of Mata and Hazard
Open ControlsClass manager, proven at the top level.
La Liga with Valencia. Twice.
UEFA Super Cup.
Champions League.
Master tactician.
Yes, he does utilize a defensive and rigid approach to the game; but it's effective and it wins games.
Chelsea fans need to give him a chance.Open Controls
Evidently it's how some of them felt.
This support your team no matter what bullshit, is exactly why football is in the state it's in.
Extortionate players wages paid for by 'sheep' football supporters paying extortionate TV subscriptions, extortionate season ticket prices, obscenely expensive club shop souvenirs and on and on and on........Open ControlsYeah, I agree with you but the way the club is run is nothing new. If you're not happy with it, don't go to the game.
Open ControlsI saw an interview once about the 'monetization of love'. It hit the nail on the head. Had a quick search but couldn't find it and can't remember who it was with.
It was basically about how clubs have taken advantage of fans and in order to show your love and loyalty, you have to buy the latest merchandise.Open Controls
Thoughts on Gaston Ramirez as a fantasy prospect?
Open Controls
I get him soon after he recovered from injury, now he paid me back.
Open Controls
Also, is everyone still captaining RVP ahead of wednesday? Or going through a differential route...
Open Controls
All RvP owners simply must captain him, there is no other way.
Open Controls
Friedns,
I just did Sterling out for Sess in to have this team for next week:
Begovic
JEvans / Garido / Cameron
Silva / Mata / Bale / Cazorla / Sess
Suarez / Ba
Bench: Foster / Berbatov / Nelsen / Demel 0.9 mil in bank
What do you think about my strategy of strong midfield?Open ControlsI like it until Tevez, RVP and Aguero chalk up 40 points between them!
Open ControlsBenching dilemma.
Open Controls
Any thoughts on this ?
Begovic
Bardsley Cameron Clichy
Mata Silva Cazorla Bale
Tevez Berbatov Suarez
McCarthy Simpson Gorkks Maloney.
Plan to bring a West Brom defender in for someone after 14.Open Controls
In what order would you get rid of these guys?:
Foster
Baines
Pienaar
Ba
BerbOpen Controls1. Pienaar
Open ControlsDefinitely agree with that but what about the rest?
Foster is injured but could be back as soon as next week
Baines is taking up a huge part of my budget when guys like Garrido and Shorey are producing just as much for less
Ba is out of form
Berb hasn't produced for me yetOpen Controls
Foster depends on sub keeper and press conf
Baines then Ba then Pienaar then BerbOpen Controls
Morning to all..Has the watchlist been updated yet?
Open ControlsRuddy is injured. Normally an article appears.
Open Controls
Grrr can someone loan me 0.1 please
Open Controls
Ba and Berba owners,
stick or getting rid of them?Open ControlsOk, Who is everyone (c) in gw 16?
Open ControlsSo you not tempted to move one of Ba/Berba for Suarez?
Open Controls
Sesxysgnon
Open ControlsLot of water to pass under the bridge before then but, right now, I'd say Suarez.
Open Controls
Question to the Saints fans:
1. Does Puncheon really nailed on? I don't want another Guthrie in my team.
2. Does Lallana and Ramirez worth the extra 1,4 over Puncheon?
3. If they worth it, who do you thinkis the best option FPL wise?
Any answers will be appreciated 😀Open Controls
sess seems to be a popular choice around here. no love for fletcher? im contemplating a straight swap for berbatov. suarez being on 4 yellows does help this move
Open Controlsit's either Pienaar to Sess or Ba to Fletcher for me.. difficult
Open ControlsGuess whose driving that wagon?
I like fletch too actually. Both are good options.Open ControlsDid you get my post up top somewhere re the "Gold taps"
Open ControlsYep. Just read it. 😀
Cmon you know the punt was as calculated as it gets.
I need Bale. Top of my shopping list. I am thinking save FT and next week Baines>5M (prob Cuellar + Michu>Bale) or Mata>Bale
You see any other route?Open ControlsYou don't have Felli, so I would maybe keep Baines and lose Walcott/Mata...or is that not possible?
Is Sess still OOP? Someone mentioned his goal/assist was lucky?Open ControlsIt was lucky but i will take that luck. Still the most lively Sun player on the pitch though.
I am looking to get Fellaini in as well. But Bale is priority. Fellaini maybe after two weeks. Mata can leave maybe. Walcott has to stay for Arsenal's run.Open Controls
Same here. If Suarez get's a susp for South then Nolan ->Sterling.
Open Controls
Good morning guys,
