We delve into the data from the Gameweek gone by to analyse the most impressive performers in the ten fixtures played out. Tottenham and City’s attacks are brought under the microscope, whilst we also take time to assess Palace’s in-form wide man, United’s record signing and Daniel Sturridge’s drop in form:
Third time lucky 😛
So Ibrahimovic to Diego Costsa is a no brainer, right?
What's the bobby on Ronny Ronaldos injury?Open Controls
Someone said Costa is injured and villa would start.
Open Controls
Ronny and Costa both unlikely to start
Open ControlsMessi, Rooney and one of Lewa, Villa or Benzema
Open Controls
I got Cavani for Zlatan but I have no idea if it makes sense this season or if I did it just because I like Cavani. Think I've seen like 2 PSG games since his arrival.
Open Controls
Haven't even thought about it yet 😯
I'll just see what takes my fancy when the sheets are out.Open Controls
Who goes to make way for Toure this week (and for the rest of the season)?
a) Gerrard
b) HazardOpen Controls
Would it be mad to save an FT and start this bunch?
Speroni
Ward - Coleman - Zabaleta
Hazard - Yaya - Puncheon - Sterling
SLS
0.5 in the bank to upgrade Sterling, but really can't see anyone who stands out that much.
Alternative is a big downgrade on Sterling to fund Baines instead of Zaba.Open Controlscould also just bring in Barkley (with Demi instead of Zab)?
Open Controls
Mutch > Barkley or Puncheon for the double?
Open Controls
Should i do Lallana and Sturridge for Silva and Adebayor??
Open Controls
OK, 1 point lead(!) in my ML. Looking at either;
A) Sturridge & Zaba > Aguero & Mariappa (already have Ward)
B) Sturridge & Zaba > Dzeko & Azpi (already have Ivanovic, but covers rival's double CHE defense)
A variant on the standard unanswerable Dzeko/Aguero Q I know, but stumped by this one. If I'm doing A it needs to be today before Studge drops, annoyingly...
Any advice greatly appreciated.Open ControlsBum.
🙁Open Controls
I'll assume that you have Lukaku and Suarez already?
Open ControlsYep.
Open ControlsIf it is for a hit, i'd wait for Aguero. and it aint worth it for Dzeko IMO. Just go 5 in MF and wait for Rooney
Open Controls
Do u think a midfield of Yaya, Mata, Eriksen, Ramsey, Dejagah is decent to go forward with?(after DGW)
Open ControlsVery nice indeed
Open Controls
Going through a rough spell and I've pretty much lost my H2H mini league so I'm going to sacrifice GW35 to have a mini wildcard to try win the play off
what do you think of this team?
Mannone, Boruc
Terry, Azpi, Demi, Ward, Chester
Ramsey, Eriksen, Yaya, Mata, Silva
Suarez, Rooney, AdebayorOpen Controls
muller or mandzukic
btw are you in the weston ucl league?Open Controls
Mandzukic played 90 mins in loss to Augsburg and Muller came on as sub. My guess is that Muller will play but I'm rather hopeful as I have him in my team and don't want to waste a transfer!!
Open ControlsYou're welcome...just don't blame me if it goes pearshaped!

Am torn between Baines or Lukaku for the armband. Will be make or break !

Hi guys new crowd new opinions
Is this worth a -12
MANNONE
Baines Coleman ward
Yyt silva/nasri* aj Eriksen
Lukaku dzeko Suarez
*would have exact money today for silva
-12 is
Evra to Coleman
Kolarov to baines
Gerrard to silva or nasri
Britton to Eriksen
I have a 67 pt lead if that helps?
Cheers guysOpen ControlsI´m desperate... but not that much.
Open ControlsSeen the idea floated by a few today, so clearly the week to consider breaking the rule if there ever was one.
Open Controls
no
Open Controls
I'm thinking about it, but I think the clean sheets is no big advantage because everyone will have at least one Everton defender, so it comes down to penalties/assists. If your rivals all have Coleman though and that's your best differential it might be worth a shot.
Open Controls
Mannone
Coleman - Zaba - Ward
Yaya - Mirallas - AJ - Hazard
Aguero - Sturridge - Sturridge
Subs: Marshall, Ivan, Mutch, Olsson
1 FT, 0m in the bank
Team g2g for the wkend?Open Controlsdamm my bad
Aguero - Suarez - Lukaku is my front 3Open Controls
Mannone
Ivanovic - Baines - Ward
Yaya - Silva - Hazard - Erikson
Suarez - Lukaku - Dzeko
How's this looking for DGW?
Captain Baines?Open Controls
40 points ahead of my rival, he has Dzeko I have Sturridge, shall I cancel him out by doing Sturridge to Dzeko?
Open Controlsyes.
Open Controlsthanks, he also has Puncheon, should I get him in and play him over Eriksen?
Open Controls
I'd want to extend a lead rather than maintain one. Aguero (if you can afford, obviously)
Open ControlsAlways a risk he could make up good ground though, 40 points is not a lot!
Open ControlsAlso Aguero may not feature against Sunderland after only just coming back against Liverpool, he may be rested or at least limited if needed.
Open Controlsyep, but his points per minute is among the best in the league. He doesn't need 90 mins to pick up points.
Open Controls
Which team scores best this week? In peoples opinion of course lol
A
Mannone
Ivan Azpi Coleman
Hazard Lallana Aj Yaya
Suarez Dzeko Lukaku(c)

Yaya Miralles Nasri
Suarez Dzeko Lukaku(c)Open ControlsB

Mignolet
Coleman Bassong Dann
Mirallas Yaya Sidwell Hazard
Dzeko Sturridge Adebayor
Subs: Springthorpe, Mata, Davies, Fabio
4.1m in the bank, what tfrs you reckon?
I was thinking Springthorpe & Adebayor > Hart & Lukaku seem the best?Open Controls
I think I would be looking at Sidwell to Nasri to favour MCI attack.
Lukaku would be good tho - both?Open Controls
The Impossible Quandary of selling either Hazard or Gerrard to fund Kun move...
Pros for Stevie:
- I don't see any reason why Liverpool won't continue to get penalties and FKs outside the box...
- Stevie G is one of the most determined players I know, he will sweat blood to try and win this title for Liverpool...
Pros for Eden:
- Hazard is slightly off form, but could explode at any minute...
- Chelsea's schedule is marginally better than Liverpool's...
My gut is telling me to keep Stevie G regardless of fixtures... but I can't help thinking gaining Kun will mean I will miss out on a Hazard haul...
Maybe Kun is not the answer, considering the massive uncertainty with game time and risk of re-injury... but that doesn't mean that Dzeko is...
Hopefully the Pelli presser will give us a bigger indication of his fitness levels...Open ControlsGerrard is only one yellow away from suspension, though.
Open ControlsAlso only one game from getting away with it.
Open Controls
That's a tough one. I have a sneaky feeling Gerrard will avoid another yellow. Last game they brought Lucas on and played him just ahead of SG, seemingly to protect him. And I don't see his points drying up either.
If Chelsea progress in the CL then Hazard may be used more sparingly in the League, it's hard to say.
Wouldn't want to omit either, but the lure of Aguero is hard to resist.Open Controls
This might be Gerrard's most important top flight match in his career coming up. That said, he will probably do whatever he needs to do for the team even if it's picking up a yellow if the moment presents itself. At the same time if Pool does win and he does get a yellow, he'll be out of perhaps an even bigger match vs Chelsea. Hazard has the fixtures and the guarantee to play the rest of the matches this season (as long as Chelsea lose tonight). Gerrard has no such guarantee now, not until Sunday afternoon.
Open Controls
Sturridge, Azpi, Kolarov* > Aguero*, Stones*, Flanagan?
2FT, 0 in bank, -4 hit. Need to move 3 players to switch the City players. Stones becomes a pine rider after DGW.Open ControlsSome Chelsea reasoning -
If Chelsea get thru tonite:
do transfers Haz & Dzeko to Erik & Aguero
As next CL game is just after Sunderland game - Hazard likely benched / low gametime, and take this fixture away from Haz, the fixtures of a 6.9ish alternative (Erik or Rams) looks favourable for the rest of the season.
Agree or am I underestimating Haz potential?Open Controls
So with Puncheon set to rise and Sturridge likely to drop, should I do Gerrard -> Puncheon and Sturridge -> Aguero tonight?
Open ControlsNo. Wait for team news on Aguero. Prices don't matter much at this stage of the season. Unless you're unable to afford this move when prices move, just take the drop.
Open Controls
+1
Open Controls
Just do Gerrard -> Puncheon tonight then, I am doing the same I think
Open Controls
What to do with Diego Costa? 😕
