Our first members article of the week delves into the data from the previous round of fixtures. We cast an eye over the displays of Liverpool, as well as Arsenal, Leicester and Southampton’s new strikers and also analyse a number of favourably priced midfielders from Spurs, Everton and Burnley over the season so far.
Woo first!
Ramsey ... thats a real benching nightmare you have. Downgrade Hazard and get yourself a backline 🙂
Save trade.
Bench Naismith.
Too tough, that's the problem with the front 8 you have.
Anyways, Ramsey out of those.
You should probably bench Naismith due to his price but I'd feel very uncomfortable doing that with Everton having such a plum fixture. As crazy as it may sound, I'd be tempted to bench Fabregas as I think we'll probably try and play defensive and on the counter attack again, trying to get a 0-1 again or something. Feck knows. Good luck 🙂
Slowly working my way to 433 to avoid these headaches! So far it's between Ramsey and Fab then.
I have similar and I'm benching Fabregas.
Bench Naismith. He is this seasons Fraizer Campbell. Don't know what all the fuss is about.
He should have scored in the last game
So should of Welbeck. So should of many other players this GW, but it is what it is. Di Maria's goal was lucky and look how many people are bringing him in due to it.
What are you talking about, he missed an open goal.
Ha! So that's 2 for Naismith, 2 for Fab and 2 for Ramsey!
Haz still on pens I actually say Naismith (3-5-2)
Clyne or Bertrand?
Bert. Cheaper.
I can afford both, though.
Hmm depends on your views for potential STH cs.
Bertrand. Bank the 0.2
at this point, Bertrand due to price difference. Might change Clyne to Bertrand on a WC and bank the 0.1 i've earned.
Krul
Clyne - Caulker - PvA (Collocini - Chester)
A. Chester ➡ Moreno for free
or
B. save FT
?
Save , wait and see whether Chester has permanently lost his place
Hull fixtures don't impress me anyway.
Wanna play Caulker this week, probably for the last time and then bring in Moore/Duff in for him to really sort out my defence
Need to ascertain Chester's playing status. Boot Caulker as QPR are kak.
I'm having a similar dilemma, I want to get rid of Krul though. TO answer your question though, i would say A.
Dzeko to
A) Rooney
B) Falcao
C) Pelle
??Pelle
Roonpig.
Rooney.
Thanks guys - think I'll leave it until late to decide, unless Pelle potential price rise forces my hand
2.7 and 1 FT
Should i do Chester - Duff ?
Begovic
PVA Clyne Chester
Hazard Ramsay Eriksen Siggy
Costa Rooney Naismith
-------------------------------------------
Gilks Henderson Ward Mooreget a 5.5 def from a good club IMO
Moreno Clichy Shawcross Evans any CHE good luck
Can someone totally familiar w/MU tell me what the plan for Mata is once Falcoa starts. I already have DiMaria, and am thinking
Mata> Haz or Sanchez or keep?
leaning Haz, know he had no pts, but man he looked dangerous. Thx
No pts ?...It might be a slow start for him but he has a goal and an assist..compared to the likes of Mata who has two goals, Ramsey 2 goal and one assist..He's hardly dead in the water as some believe but not miles behind either..
meant the 2 last week.
Funnily enough his best match was last week for actual play....Most attacking team in the prem and playing alongside Costa..absolutely no way he doesn't get a good flow of pts sooern or later..sooner would be nice..
From the end of the last match looks like Mata will be benched and Rooney drops back. I think he may start the next one though considering they won 4-0 and them get subbed. I would hold for this week
I like that. So Haz or Sanchez? thx
Both...
I dont think Mata will be benched as both RVP & Falcao can't play together...LVG was just trying it out in the end minutes when match was already in their pocket
Ok.... wildcard time
.
----------------Lloris-----------------
Chambers-----Taylor-----Wilson (Blackett, Duff)
ADM---Siggy---Fab----Ramsey (Marney)
Falcao-----Adebayor-----Costa
0.0 in the bank
Pull the trigger?I dump Adebayor after this GW--fixtures, going Pelle
Robertson over BlackettWhy?! Team looks ok
How was Balotelli's form against Ludogorets? I saw his goal, which was tidy, but did he play well? Very much thinking of Him > Aguero atm.
I heard he was poor, other than the goal
+1
That's Ballotelli for you though, never good, just banging them in when he's on form
Everyone on that 'pool team was poor last night
Who is the best replacement for debuchy?
A) Bertrand
B) Clyne
C) van aanholt
D) Shawcrossclyne and the coin
I say Clyne, but Bert is cheaper with similar likely returns.
Cheers guys, that's what I was thinking. Will press the button!
Really tempted to do Kun and Welbz to Rooney and Pelle for -4. Would free up £1.5m too. Madness?
Bonkers
Thanks, I perhaps needed that. I'm sitting on two Arsenal players (Welbz and Ramsey) and despite being a Gooner, am just uncomfortable with it. I can see Villa stopping us from scoring on the weekend, so considering damage limitation.
don't do it - knee-jerk imho
I think I prefer the first pair 🙂
Madness this week. Maybe next week. Save transfer.
Thanks all 🙂
Kun –> Rooney next week is even worse!!
I consider both Rooney and Kun fixture proof. Was comparing Welbz with Pelle. But I see what you mean.
Good moves. Welbeck isn't in the goals and Kun is a hamstring waiting to happen.
This is where I was at in my thinking.
After next week I think most people are going to want Kun.
+100 (if he stays fit)
Sletcher to Welbeck
or for -4
Sletcher to Pelle
Hazard to ADMI prefer the -4, especially if you are captaining ADM.
I did Sletcher to Pelle for a hit just before deadline. Turned out to be a great move!. I would to the first option
I wouldn't do the Hazard move.
Aye I dont want to sell him but need 0.4
Well I guess it's hard for me to defend him given his points. So in that case it seems decent, everything in my gut tells me it isn't.
Im with you though
I think Haz goes off, was in form Sat, just no pts--still on pens right
Pelle has sweet fix's
Thoughts on doing Debuchy to Duff?
After the Chelsea game tonight I'm thinking of doing Gerrard to Chadli and making him my captain this week (no Man U players).
This will give me enough money for Naismith to Pelle next week.
Good moves?Not for me, but nothing wrong with it.
There may be injuries in Europa. Wait another day maybe?
I hadn't checked the fixtures properly, thanks.
If I do go for it it won't be until Thursday evening then!
nice differential
Rafael should start next week, right?
Eriksen a worthy captain choice? Or should I just stick with Rooney away at Lecister?
It's a decent week for punts.
who else you got? agree good week for punts, torn between Adeb and Baines
Sterling. Costa. I just did a RMT below
Thoughts on Falcao vs. Roondog vs. Aguero vs. Balo
Think my ranking is probably
Aguero
Falcao
Rooney
Balo
On wildcard so not sure who to buddy up with costaI brought in Aguero on a WC last week and am regretting slightly. He's not playing 90 minutes at the moment. Rooney is currently a steal at that price.
But ... it is Kun - who knows eh?I want to bring Kun in next week but I don't think he'll ever be getting 90 mins.
I've got the same dilemma. Playing with a switch this week.
rooney (restarts)
quick A, B please guys thanks for the help , A. play hutton bench JT and save FT. B, Terry > Rafael/Bertrand/ or other.
No other pressing transfers?
No i have , Clyne, Terry,Moreno,(hutton)
Sterling,Ramsey,Siggy,Fab
Pelle, DCosta,RooPig.
stick with Terry
Huttons fix's gotta catch up.IMO
DDG (myhill)
Caulker - Chester - Clyne (moore - wisdom)
Eriksen - Hazard - Ramsey - Sterling - Siggy
Balotelli - Rooney (vaz te)
1m ITB and 1 FT, thoughts what to do?
is chester essential to get out?Save. A Chester transfer is far down a list of priorities.
but he isn't playing atm?
But he could be back, you never know..
You have other playing defenders for now. Personally I'd do a transfer like that when I e got 2 spare and nothing else to use it on.
I've*
fair call, cheers man
Yeah, get rid of Chester.
for naylor?
Or PVA, both good options.
Guys.. do you agree with these transfers ?
A) Cahill -> Naylor or Wilson this gw & next gw Naismith -> Pelle
B) Wisdom -> Duff this gw & next gw do (A) for -4
Krul
Cahill / Clyne / Pva
Ramsey / Mata / Sterling / Fabregas
Rooney / Naismith / Costa
(Guzan / Boyd / Moore / Wisdom)
1 FT & 0.6m itbI would do option 1. Pelle has QPR next GW!
so who to go for in the 4.5m range ?
Thoughts?
DDG/Gilks
Cahill/Debuchy/Clyne/Dummet/Chester
Ramsey/Eriksen/Siggy/Sterling/Marney
Costa/Rooney/Pelle
1ft 0.4 ITB
Worth taking a hit to fix my defence? Or should I just use my FT to do Debuchy to Duff and play Cahill-Duff-Clyne this GW and worry about Chester/Dummet later? Thanks.yeah I took dummett over Hutton.
Capt-wise I'd say Rooney, but Erikson as good a punt as any.
Worth doing Aguero to Rooney for this week only? Would be a FT and give me a more secure (c)option this gameweek.
Potential for a big swing between these 2 looking at Leicester's defensive stats.No
I'd keep Kun.
Stick. Chelsea defensive stats this season haven't been that great either.
No
Jafa, hows the team looking for this week mate?
Awesome as ever, Zeppers.
No benching issues. Likely to cap'n Ziggy.
My only issue is the back 5 of JT, Moreno, Moore, Wisdom and Naylor. I need to decide on what to do with JT.Good man... let us know what you decide...
Managed to bring together Dier Chadli and Ade for the WBA at home match...here's hoping for a super charged Spurs performance...
Probably Ade (c) for me...
Lamela hattrick 😉
It's stick a pin in job isn't it....Ade Lamela Chadli Eriksen..not much to choose between them really...all good picks.
No they are not.
Lamela has not been, ever, and is not, a good pick.Up and down...Played furthest forward of the four last week..Chadli the week before..Seems one of them has a good week each week.
But he's my (c) this week 🙁
Eriksen (C) and Eriksen Hattrick 😀
Might well be..
Hopefully their Europa hangover doesn't continue.
Lucky you. I wish I had ade this week.
I won't keep them..I have 3 Chelsea and 3 spurs this weekend..Not liking that long term...
1-1
Lennon, Dier OG.
😉
Nice. Getting in Chadli this week. Hoping for the same.
Who made way for Chadders...Siggy or Zaha?Zaha...for now...I'll give him another coat of looking at in his next home match...
Probably for the best.
He was disappointing last time out..
What do people think of this team. I am doing horrendous this year with a score OR of 1.75m. My punts are yet to pay off 🙁
Krul
Vertonghen clyne Janmaat
Sterling mirallas tadic Lamela
Aguero balotelli adebayor (c)Vert= inj nice 6.0 there though.
Krul stuggling
Adebayor hits bad fixs after this week.Minor is he not set to play this weekend en
3 Spurs is crazy and not have any Chelsea players is a mistake IMO.
TOT: WBA 346
From my ticker ... dark blue ...I'm confused. 346?
A very high rating. Goes from -760 to +760 approx.
How does MUN:LEI Rate? Any of your fixtures ever hit 600+?
Oh, yes.
MUN: lei 188Cheers 🙂
What is Chelsea's rating for QPR(H)? 😯
CHE : mci -362 AVL 582 ARS 266 cpl 291 mun 122 QPR 610
Important to have two at all times ... 😉
AVL 582, QPR 610 ?!!??!
😕Yes. I don't manufacture them - my algorithm does.
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/1285/
Click on "Errors leading to goal"What do u recommend with this lot then doos. You love your punts 🙂
Chadli.
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/1373/
Under no circumstances whatsoever would I recommend Lamela. Dreadful pick.
Fab and jag for Lamela and vert?
Is Vert fit to play? Missing another heavy hitter in midfield imo. Rest looks good.
Is it CRAZY! To do:
In:
Baines
Bertrand
Fabregas
Welbeck
Out:
Vert
Lamela
Ade
Janmaat
I could always do this next week for an -12 instead of a -16 this weekdo it!
Lamela and Ade out? Against WBA? The team who's made the most errors leading directly to a goal this season?
What are people thoughts on Mata going forward? Seemed to play like a fake 9 during the QPR game with Rooney/RVP/Falcao pulling out wide a lot. Can't see him not scoring as long as he's playing
I have fears as well, won't rooney become the 9?
Rooney did play there towards the end when Mata was subbed, but it sort of hampered the fluidity of the team I felt, but we'll see. Just monitoring for now
He was in the box alot during the game definitely. If already have Mata, keep for this week (that's what i'm doing). But looks like his game time is far from secure in any case, might look to sell him next GW if no other pressing matters.
He'll do well. Their top points scorer, maybe.
I only see Bert and Clyne mentioned and no mention of Toby at all. Why is that? I believe he is nailed on too, he is the same price range. Bert and Clyne have assist potential but Toby has goals potential from set-pieces. I think he averages 4-6 per season which is the same as Terry and Ivanovic. It won't get much better than that for a CB.
Anyone cares to explain?The most he's every scored in the league is 2, and that's in a dominating side in the Eridivisie.
well that's that.
*ever
Ah - Alderweireld.
Yes, and he doesn't figure in dangerous backs - yet.
Wtf is Toby?
a cute small mutt.
Alderweireld
Alderweireld.
Alderweireld.
well that's that.
Alderweireld will be a big hit. Bookmark this for 6 months time.
No one knows much about him. He played well in the wc and I was going to swap him in this week, I think Swansea will score though, so I'm putting it off.
His last name is difficult to memorize so I use his first name. Don't want to look for it, copy and paste.
Mornin' all,
Anyone know what happened to Moreno's assist in UCL?rescinded - couple of richochets before it reached balo
I was wandering the same..... Explained it to myself that it mustn't have been given due to the deflection...
a)Shaw---->Champers
b)Shaw----> Evans
c)PVA------>Champers
d)Balotelli----> Rooney
e) Save
Pick oneD
You still have Shaw?!
D
Ade and stupid Marney > Pelle and (whisper it) Downing over the next two..DOWNING !!!!!
@Doosra..is he nailed on with all those signings ?Oh, yes - he is our SECOND most creative player ... 😆
... but our fixtures are AWFUL!!!
WHM: LIV -350 mun -236
Lily the Pink!5.5 with QPR coming up...Isn't half having a lot of pops at goal and creating chances. I quite like the look of those that he's supplying as well. Who do you fancy in their line up ?
Enner. May be running into a hot streak. Will keep you posted.
Yeah he looks good..WHAM look good anyway...So much better than last year.
Aren't we just? 😀
Wonder how long it will take for this mob to catch on? 😉Hazard Chadli Sanchez Downing Siggy..Quite liking that...
Yup. You may have a problem with Sanchez. Not that he is bad - far from it!
But he is Arsenal's "enforcer", so may be distracted from scoring goals.
Click on "Ground Duels":
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/2200/Oh no I won't..Sanchez > Wally soon...When he's up to speed..
Ah - cool move! 😎
Downing is really naff tho. No matter what the stats say.
So ... facts do not interest you? OK, then.
Just don't like him as a player. Had him before in fantasy and he did nought.
One goal and an assist plus 6 bps so far says he's not bad at 5.5 against QPR..
how about Amalfitnao when he nails on his role?
Precisely. Downing is PROVEN, and NAILED.
Yeah true! but Amal was impressive for WBA last season
Not really. And Albion are awful this Season.
http://members.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/my-stats-tables/view/1151/Downing is a good choice then!
Can't see much milage in risking him coming to form whilst Downing is already doing it...
hmm true
Yeah for the qpr match he probably will do something perhaps. I'd not want him on my team long though. Would prefer noble tbh.
5.5..hardly breaks the bank..
Epicfail. Are you getting Adebayor for Dzeko this week? Considering it my self and put the armband on him.
Have both Ade and Dzeko, considering captaining him for a differential. Dzeko to Pelle or Rooney
9 years, 7 months agoWho to bench this week and should I save my transfer:
Siggy (SOT), Hazard (mci), Fab (mci), Ramsey (avl), Sterling (whm)
Rooney (lei), Costa (mci), Naismith (CPL)
Originally had Haz on the bench. Don't think I can bench any of the front three. Maybe Ramsey away at Villa but surely villa can't go on with the CS run?
