As always, our first members article of the week delves into the data from the previous batch of fixtures. This time around, the displays of Chelsea’s wide men, Liverpool’s lone forward, Southampton’s new playmaker and the Hammers’ attacking improvement all come under analysis.
Colo
is Colo overkill as a Chambers replacement if I intend on getting Krul for Begovic as well? was liking the look of PvA, he gets forward a lot

(third time's the charm! 😆 )Newcastle have great fixtures.. I reckon it's worth the risk doubling up and playing both for easy fixtures and just one for medium fixtures.
true that, plus can always get in PvA for Baird seeing as it looks like he'll never start..
Vaz Te.
West Ham fans, and anyone who has seen West ham play recently. What do you think?
I need to ship out Bojan before his price falls and he plays against city on the wing or just sits on the bench. I can afford up to 7.4, but tempted by the ultra budget man following this article and would free up big funds elsewhere...
As a West Ham fan Vaz Te was awful when I saw him first hand against Spurs, however he apparently improved against Palace. Should keep his place this weekend but Valencia, when he is fit, will force him out of the side.
Ah, see this is the problem with basing your logic on the basic stats presented above. Numbers can make anyone seem good or bad, and I might have got a bit over-excited.
Did anyone see him against palace? Worth bringing in simply to avoid the Bojan price drop?
Oh god, now he has a "knock" and is only 75% assured of playing. The exodus will surely keep growing. I'M SCARED!
bego > krul or foster??? Matter if have collo already?
Mannone?
Guess that too is another option though i do have PVA
Forster if you don't have any Soton. Or even perhaps if you do.
so u reckon forster over krul?
Definitely.
Yep better to spread the risk. Mannone has good fixtures coming up
so if have collo and pva, better to get forster or just choose mannone?
Both have good fixtures coming up. Follow your gut
But better Forster IMO
Has there been talk of Di Marias FPL price? With their upcoming fixtures he is a must have for me.
Can't see him being anything but 10.5
I'd wait and see. I think 10.5 though. Same as Sanchez.
hoping and praying for 10m
What transfer are you doing this week?
3 of em (-8) 😀
Costa/Sturridge to Jovetic and Davis to Sterling
OR
Caulker to 4.0 and Davis to DeJong depending on tonight 🙂already got dier in for the money-grabbing price rise, but now tempted by Vaz te for Bojan...
Dzeko to Jovetic/Adebayor, haven't decided which. Saving my other FT for the int. break most likely...
Diouf>Jovetic done. Will do Bego>Forster as well.
bony > Jovetic
ben davies to dummett
Anyone got any insight when Ade will rise and Dzeko fall? I have no spare cash.
Is there much risk doing it before Spurs play in the Europa or is Ade unlikely to play in that?
Soldado will start in Europa.
Cheers, that's what I was thinking. Kane maybe as well
MJ, why Adebayor over Jovetic out of interest?
Now that Aguero is reaching full fitness, I just think it will rotation between Jovetic and Dzeko.
Ade very unlikely to play IMO. Will be Soldado or Kane.
Thanks. Might just do it tonight. Can't trust TFPL now.
Probably been discussed in great depth all day today but just in.
Whats the deal with the price changes??
Resigned myself to the Bojan price drop and came in to find he didnt???
Pleasant surprise but would like to know why no drop....
He was above 90 or something. He was supposed to fall yesterday or today the latest. BTW he is flagged so I think he will fall again but in Friday
will drop but we don't know when
Anyone know if he will drop tonight?
I'm glad Ings is doing well, though not so well he's scoring...ducked out of owning him, and I want to, just unsure when he'll explode. Burnley don't seem that good.
Van Gaal is a famously stubborn individual and would be reluctant to change his approach so soon, but Di Maria's arrival means United have a squad perfectly suited to 4-3-1-2.
Yep, he won't change his 3-4-1-2 'philosophy' so easily
The question then, is simple. Why is he so keen to play a 3-4-1-2 at Manchester United?
because he didnt have the quality in wide attacking areas.. he does now
maybe a 433 is on the horizon
That's not really his philosophy. He is only playing it due to personnel. One of the reasons being no decent winger.
you just copied and pasted that from the article I posted in the last page lol
Yes man I want to promote discussion and let people realize that Mata will be dropped soon, especially when Shaw and Rojo are fit
Obviously Mata isn't good on the wing
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bv8q2yvCEAAp6SP.jpgthat whole article was about how he can fit Mata, Rooney, Van Persie and Di Maria in the same team though
how do they line up in that formation?
...........de gea
rafael evans jones shaw
herrera carrick di maria
.............mata......
...rooney ..........rvp
?
Rojo CB
Blah blah blah
Eriksen and Caulker will both drop this week, the latter tonight. Should I get rid of either tonight or hope their good stats translate into good points this week. With value so critical this year, is it worth the risk with either ?
It does seem important to get rid of players who are dropping, as more seem to drop than rise (I have seen many people write this, but have no facts to back this up).
I reckon get rid of Caulker, because Eriksen will get you points soon. He just will.Get rid of Caulker even ahead of SUN, manu, STO in his next three? Those two home games are good chances to score... but if he blanks against SUN his value will shoot down...
Decisions, decisions, I guess they're what makes the game challenging though 😀if caulker drops to near 4.5 after the international break im gonna pretend i just bought him in and keep him all season 🙂
Yeah, it's a tough one, but personally I just don't like relying on defenders to score to get points. I can't see QPR getting many clean sheets this season, if the spurs match if anything to go by.
Eriksen is one of those safe bet players for me.. will produce over the long term if not injured. Caulker is a player you got to play every week and hope for a goal. i consider him my 8th attacker and am tryin to do that but considerin ive average 1 point a game from him so far i find my logic flawed 🙂
Ha! Cheers mate, I'll probably keep Caulker as I want 2 FT for the int. break and a more pressing concern in my team is Dzeko IMO. Bad form, knock, and his main competitor for a spot is on fire...
Dzeko is fine as pointed out by Pellegrini and he's much better than Jovetic.
Fabregas , Sterling , Rambo , Siggy (Ince)
Costa , Rooney , Wickham
Free Transfer Fabs to Silva ?nah save
Thanks
I see that you want to capitalize on City home match but no. Fab is good
amat or taylor? eventually best 4,5 defender
taylor
taylor
Naylor, at least from last match
Anyone eyeing up a Lamela swoop soon?
o/
Get him! hep his price rise (I obviously have him already)
as I type this
Nope. At this point I'm happy to have 6 out of my 7 as template players with the 3rd striking spot available for punts
6 out of my 7 attacking players
Can't seem to want to drop any of Ramsey, Fabs, Mata, Sterling, Siggy ATM. But Lamela looks really good playing in the free role... Will see how Mata is affected by Di Maria and contemplate a change post GW4.
Tot vs Liverpool should tell us more about him...QPR just provided no resistance at all
Have my eye on him for sure.
Nah, still love me some Eriksen
Ahead of Sterling?
there's too many mids and not enough mid spots! 😐
113k transfers in for jovetic. Thats as mucl as his ownership before the game last night
Surely a rise?I'll take it. 😎
.1 gain in seeing value too for those that have him since the start
.1m less cost for those that got in on him at 7.9m will be much more valuable should he become a season keeper.
Made a good start so far, current rank just outside top 1k, but concerned about player values falling. Anything worth a -4 here?
Begovic (Hamer)
Cahill PVA Coloccini Chester Moore
Fabregas Mata Ramsey Siggy Marney
Costa Rooney Dzeko
As a Mata & Jovetić owner please don't make price changes a primary reason for or against making a transfer for that matter.
Underlying stats & upcoming fixtures are what we should focus on...
I want albrighton to start to prove hes fit but not sure it proves hes a first team player..
It's been more than 10 days that FPL started and I haven't made a transfer yet. 😯
#NewRecord 😀One transfer only wouldn't save your team.
Just don't see the pricechange site... 🙂
I'm in the same boat & honestly idk if I need / want to make one this week either...
Ward Prowse, Larsson or someone else to replace Davis. 5.6m budget
I'm going to suck in the drop and save the FT for international week.
That being said, he is my 5th midfielder.
I'm sorry, not sure that helps.Really? Lose 0.1 and he looks unlikely to play on Saturday..
Rest of the team? both are good options now
De Gea/Myhill
Cahill/Chambers/Wisdom/Chester/Van Aanholt
Fabregas/Eriksen/Ramsey/Siggy/5.6m
Rooney/Costa/Jovetic
Larsson going up tonight and less rotation risk?
I am thinking Bony to Jovetic. Both seems to be not getting 90, but Jovetic seems to be a better option for the forseeable future. (6 weeks or so)
What do you all think?
careful now.
Always 🙂
For free, yes. For -4, maybe
Yes for free. Thank you
Soz about the reference, i think that's a very good shout, especially if you already have siggy.
I do have Siggy. Just did the transfer since I would feel very dumb were his price to rise before I got him in. Miss a working price change site!
Who is the best option long term?
A. Huth
B. Wilson
C. Cameron
Please don't recommend a payer that is non-Stoke, my budget it 4.9Wilson? But not so sure on Stoke defs.
With many top end defenders not scoring and some good pricing for mid-table teams whom would make up your budget back 5 if you played a WC or decided to cash in on more expensive defenders?
I am thinking of bringing in Clyne, Taylor and Dier.Really hope DeJong and Tadic start tonight.. need to do some scouting 🙂
Need some transfer advice
Have 2 FT's and no cash in the bank.
Bego (Myhill)
Cahill Debuchy Hutton Jones (Chambers)
Mata Hazaard Siggy Ramsey (Albrighton)
Rooney Costa (Bojan)
Obviously want to get Bojan and Chambers out of the team but also think that just making one transfer this week and having two going into the international break will be a big advantage.
Option one:
Collocini for Chambers (who would play this week)
Option two:
Bojan for Naismith/Berahino/Fletcher/Weiman (who would not play this week but would avoid inevitable Bojan price drop)
Option three:
Any combination of two transfers
This now becomes more relevant since the Giroud injury came to light. A mid price option like Sanogo/Campbell/Podolski/Reme could be an option.
Would really appreciate some opinion on this.Colo and play 4-4-2
If you could just swallow that -0.1
time to get rid of Chambers, any suggestions?
Current GK/Def
Krul/Bego
Clyne/Taylor/Cahill/DebuchyPvA or Vergini?
Any games on TV tonight?...
only the manu game here.. gonna watch the newcastle stream though depending on the startin lineup
where is here ?..UK ?
Celtic vs Maribor ITV4
Ahhh I can't decide whether to keep Dzeko or go for Jovetic. The latter would allow me to upgrade Chambers to a 5.0 next week. Am really not sure whether Dzeko will start after reading all of those Pellegrini quotes saying how much he believes in Jovetic and that Jovetic can play with anyone, Dzeko, Aguero and Negredo.
Dzeko will still start
But Jovetic will score more points 😉
no debate here
This is the key dilemma of the week... Jove did look lively last night, excellent form, excellent stats. I'm not confident that Dzeko can keep his place for much longer, and he took a knock to boot. With Kun returning to full fitness, surely Dzeko would be the one to drop to the bench? What's even worse - Jove was brought in by Pelle, it's clear he has trust in him and rates him highly...
Exactly. I think I may just make the swap, Dzeko hasn't looked dangerous whatsoever these first 2 games. I just know he will score as soon as I take him out....
Mutch> Larsson
Worth doing?one sinking ship to another tbh.. though he could do ok for that price
Please help RMT
Begovic. Krul
Ward. Cahill. Chambers. Caulker. Chester
Ramsey. Sigurdsson. Hazard. Mata. Marney
Jovetic. Rooney. Wickham
1.8 ITB. 1 FTDowngrade GKs / defence.
Bego to £4m for me and play Krul until Jan WC.Thanks for your prompt reply! With 1.8 in the bank I was looking at upgrading a player or two
Will Bojan fall tonight?
Who should I replace him with? (max 7.4) ..I have Caulker, Mutch and Bojan in my team, seemingly they are all dropping in price tonight. Should i give a damn.
9 years, 8 months agoGetting rid of Chambers this week...do I go for Coloccini or Robertson (Hull)
