We delve into the Gameweek 5 data this evening in our first members article of the week. Wayne Rooney’s new role for United comes under analysis, as do Burnley and Leicester’s displays up front, whilst a couple of north London-based frontmen are also placed under the microscope after their contrasting weekend performances.

    Whats the most accurate FPL price change website?

      They're all completely wrong.

        * goes to site, disappointed to see men there...

    Who is the cheapest attacker in your front 8? and Those of you who own Ulloa.. is he the cheapest attacker or do you have someone cheaper so you can play him every week?.

    1. Rödallegabomb ᴿᴮ
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Marney

    2. The Iron Tulip
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Boyd

    3. Heels_Over_Head
      12 years, 1 month ago

      ulloa

      price doesn't decide who plays

      eriksen on my bench this week

      1. Valar(Keith)
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Agreed.. i've got Vardy as my cheapest(love the guy and easier to bench than Ulloa) so prob gonna play him over Eriksen too

        1. Jumpers For Goalposts
          12 years, 1 month ago

          +1 Vardy

          1. Valar(Keith)

            Foxes fan too mate?

            1. Jumpers For Goalposts
              12 years, 1 month ago

              Not a fan of the team but a fan of the attack. Ulluo's headed goals have been perfect and Vardy seems a real fighter type striker like a Costa or Tevez. If Leicester keep those two together it could be a formidable attack.

    Thoughts on this starting 11?

    Forster
    Baines Naylor Duff
    Di Maria Fábregas Sterling Sigurdsson
    Agüero Costa Welbeck

    1. Venom Snake

      Very strong

    2. The Iron Tulip

      as good as it can get

      1. Christina.

        I disagree.

        1. Nabs Kebabs

            I do. Honestly.

    5. Valar(Keith)

      Wow! Just... WOW! that is beautiful

    6. SouthCoastSaint
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Only concern would be Aguero's game time (I know his goals/games ratio is outstanding but it might frustrate you)

      1. Messi & fabregas
        12 years, 1 month ago

        this along puts me off, they play 3 matches this week Hull , Roma , Villa i cant see him starting all 3 can u?

    Thanks to all who helped 2 pages ago...

    That's my team....

    Yay or nay to these:
    1) Ramsey > Di Maria
    2) Robertson > chambers
    3)Balotelli > Lukaku

    Thx

    1. Venom Snake
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Without opening your team up; I wouldn't make any of those moves

      1. thepuntmaster
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Really 😮

        Do Maria seems essential, Balotelli and Ramsey underperforming, chambers cheap and good fixtures

    2. Patty
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I would contemplate a WC, your team is missing several key players.

    3. thepuntmaster

      4) DDG > Forster?

  5. Steevo

    Good to go this week fellas?

    Krul (Elliot)
    Shawcross Bertrand Clyne (Hutton Moore)
    Chadli Siggy Fab Sterling ADM
    Costa (C) Aguero (Naismith)

    0FT 0.2ITB

    Medium term plan is Shawcross, Chadli, Naismith -> Baines, Boyd, Ulloa and play 3-4-3.

    1. SouthCoastSaint
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Nice. Future planning looks alright but I don't fancy Boyd much, guess he will be your non playing 5th mid

    2. Forever In Our Shadow
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Loose krul. He sits in a sieve these days. Wait for Pardew to go then he might be a good choice.

  6. Patty
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Thoughts on bringing Herrera in shortly? Seems to be going really well, for 7.3 is it worth it? (I also have no MU coverage)

    1. The Iron Tulip
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Risky but cud work...

    2. A.T
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I bit too punts for my liking

    3. grapesland
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Seems good, question is if you want to use a slot for another MU midfielder, as I take you want or have Angel aswell..

      1. Think Tank
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I think LGV will want to rein him in a bit, rather than goal poaching.

        He said as much (although not directly at Herrera) in post-match interview.

  7. Heels_Over_Head
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Dear NLD referee,

    Kindly please give Calum Chambers two yellow cards.

    Cheers,
    Those waiting to bring him in for GW8

  8. Messi & fabregas
    12 years, 1 month ago

    On Wildcard

    A) Aguero + Boyd

    B) Falcao + sub 5,6 mid

    C) Ulloa + Ramsey

    Cesc, Sterling, ADM, siggy, XXX

    Costa, Welbeck XXX

    Thanks

      12 years, 1 month ago

      do u think kun will play 3 matches in a week? they have hull roma villa ? this is the only thing that puts me off, along with his hamstrings

  9. The Sarjeant
    12 years, 1 month ago

    My teams shaping up quite nicely I think.

    Begovic
    Cahill Clyne Wisdom
    Fábregas Sterling Ramsey Sigurdsson
    Costa Rooney Welbeck

    Gilks Marney Chambers Coloccini

    Just a few more transfers and I'll be on the road to glory!

  10. Arvin-ation
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    12 years, 1 month ago

    So Pelle VS Welbeck?

    Pelle look better in terms of stats, and being the main man for goalscoring for their respective teams.
    Arsenal seem to be a little more attacking though.
    Pelle's fixtures are better, and can be swapped to Welbeck in GW 8....

    Thoughts, people? Talk to me 🙂

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      12 years, 1 month ago

      pelle next 2. dat guy long term.

    2. A.T
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Pelle is 6'4. When was the last time you saw a striker who got loads of goals that was 6'4? I rest my case.

      1. Djerbil
        12 years, 1 month ago

        how tall is Ibra??

        1. SouthCoastSaint
          12 years, 1 month ago

          horizontally he's 9 ft 4

          1. Djerbil
            12 years, 1 month ago

            Got it
            Pelle 1.93 m
            Ibra 1.95 m

        2. A.T
          12 years, 1 month ago

          6'4 apparently! 😳

      2. Arvin-ation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        😆

        Good point.....Cheers AT 😉

    3. Christina.
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Pelle swapped in GW 8...with

      SUN/STOKE/hull/LEIC/villa

      Think again.

      1. Arvin-ation
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Well then I can keep Pelle, just have the option to swap.

      2. Nabs Kebabs
        12 years, 1 month ago

        going without dat guy with

        HUL/sun/BUR/swans/MANU

        Think again.

        1. Christina.
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Who said anything about going without Welbeck?

          🙄

          Think again.

          In any case, THE differential should be back by GW 8...

          1. Nabs Kebabs
            12 years, 1 month ago

            well assuming you won't have Pelle and Welbz.

            Wally?

            1. Christina.
              12 years, 1 month ago

              You really are confused this morning.

              I did not say I wont have Pelle and Welbz. I said it's madness to swap one for the other.

              1. Nabs Kebabs
                12 years, 1 month ago

                lol. if you were on WC this week, which one would you pick out of interest

    4. Venom Snake
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I chose Welbeck. No other reason besides playing for a better team with more goal scoring potential. Could regret it though.

    5. SouthCoastSaint
      12 years, 1 month ago

      If you have Pelle then keep him. If you dont then get Welbeck instead

      1. Think Tank
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I went with Welbeck so I could convince myself that ditching Ramsey for ADM was a good idea.

        1. SouthCoastSaint
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Yeah like that move. I 'unfortunately' cant get welbeck as Pelle and Ulloa are doing so well

    6. yeahbuddy
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Tempted to drop Rooney and get both

    7. Patty
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Pelle.

      He has the form and the fixtures.

  11. Warning Hazard ahead
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Have a look please:

    Foster (4.5 BUR)
    Ivanovic (7.2 AVL) Bertrand (5.1 QPR) Duff (4.1 wba)
    Sterling (8.8 EVE) Fabregas (9.4 AVL) Di Maria (9.8 WHM) Puncheon (5.9 LEI)
    Costa (10.9 AVL) Ulloa (5.7 cpl) Aguero (12.1 hul)

  12. Jam0sh

    Ramsey -> Di Maria for a hit?

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      12 years, 1 month ago

      lol no

      1. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        ehm just realized I did hesitate a bit 😀 I'll just sit tight. Haven't taken a hit this season yet so it just feels a little tempting as an idea.

    2. Arvin-ation
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I did that last week and it payed off.

      1. Warning Hazard ahead
        12 years, 1 month ago

        As did I, great move imo with Ramseys fixtures

      2. Jam0sh
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        12 years, 1 month ago

        So you feel it would be still an option this week? or I'll just get burned by Rambo if I do it now.

        1. Warning Hazard ahead
          12 years, 1 month ago

          I would rather ADM over Ramsey until GW 9, WHM, EVE, wbm are much juicier fixtures to face than TOT, che, HUL.

    3. mod33
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Ye

  13. Venom Snake
    12 years, 1 month ago

    How am I looking for this week, any hits? 0 FT and 1.9itb

    Begovic
    Clyne - PvA - Kelly
    ADM - Sterling - Siggy - Ramsey
    Costa - Rooney - Welbeck

    Gilks -- Marney - Ferdinand - Chester

  14. No Arsene Around
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Begovic to Forster for -4 anyone?

    1. A.T
      12 years, 1 month ago

      No

    2. XhakaCan
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Avoid hits for goalkeepers

    3. skodaole2
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Definitely no.

  15. Nabs Kebabs
    12 years, 1 month ago

    People selling Ramsey are gonna regret it.

    1. Patty
      12 years, 1 month ago

      hopefully...

    2. Christina.
      12 years, 1 month ago

      He has about 25pts to make up on ADM.

        2. Daniel Exeter

          What is your midfield out of interest?

          1. Nabs Kebabs
            12 years, 1 month ago

            Di Maria, Ramsey, Sterling, Siggy, Boyd.

            1. Warning Hazard ahead
              12 years, 1 month ago

              Not having Fab/Haz is going to hurt you more than someone who doesn't have Ramsey...

            2. Daniel Exeter
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              12 years, 1 month ago

              Ah I see, yeah I agree with the comment below. Need Fab or Haz

              1. Daniel Exeter
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                12 years, 1 month ago

                oops comment above*

  16. KISSES
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Morning all, would you say save my FT this week if no transfer is in desperate need here?

    Krul
    Chambers Terry Duff
    Siggy Fabregas Ramsey Sterling
    Balotelli Costa(c) Pelle

    Elliot Moore Marney Hutton

    1FT and 2.7 in the bank.

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      12 years, 1 month ago

      yep save

      1. Think Tank
        12 years, 1 month ago

        I'd be tempted to shift Balo out, as you have Sterling already - represents better value imo.

    2. skodaole2
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Balotelli -> Falcao or save

  17. Patty
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Defence is

    DDG Myhill
    Baines Moreno Clyne Vlaar

    Best option for my defence? (under 5.0, lower the better though to free up cash)

    1. XhakaCan
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Moreno > Duff

      1. Patty
        12 years, 1 month ago

        for my 5th defender

        1. XhakaCan
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Duff then, or you could bench Moore every week.

  18. SouthCoastSaint
    12 years, 1 month ago

    My front 7 look good for this week so can afford to use my freebie on my gk or defence.

    Any suggestions other than a Saints double up?

    Bego Krul
    Moreno, Clyne, Trippier, Schlupp, Pieters

    1. The Sarjeant
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Moreno > Chambers.

  19. The Sarjeant
    12 years, 1 month ago

    There should be a hot topic dedicated to the 100000 posts saying - "Ramsey > Di Maria for a hit?"

    1. The Sarjeant
      12 years, 1 month ago

      And for what it's worth, I say no.

    2. Djerbil
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I did it for free last week and gained 9 pts

      1. SouthCoastSaint
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Did it on wc and its been a great move.

        United not being in any cup comps is huge

      2. The Sarjeant
        12 years, 1 month ago

        Fair enough, but that's only 1 week of many.

      3. Venom Snake
        12 years, 1 month ago

        That's fair enough, but there will be moments when Ramsey gets a haul and ADM will blank. Same crap

        1. SouthCoastSaint
          12 years, 1 month ago

          get both?!

          1. Venom Snake
            12 years, 1 month ago

            I have both 😎

        2. Djerbil
          12 years, 1 month ago

          fair point
          but I did the transfer looking at the next 4 weeks where I thought ADM will outscore Ramsey and then I might actually bring Ramsey back if required

    3. Heels_Over_Head
      12 years, 1 month ago

      well there's Parm's about keeping Ramsey

    4. Leaf
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      12 years, 1 month ago

      They can re hash it in a couple if weeks , but to ADM to Ramsey

  20. airborneaksai
    12 years, 1 month ago

    i need utd cover for the next two games....

    falcao + 1 FT

    or

    ADM + Ulloa for -4

    which is more worth it for next round

    1. The Sarjeant
      12 years, 1 month ago

      You don't ever need attacking cover. Just pick the players you think will score the most points.

      1. airborneaksai
        12 years, 1 month ago

        ya but two home games....nice point haul predicted

    2. skodaole2
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Who would you sell in either situation?

      1. airborneaksai
        12 years, 1 month ago

        adebayor...sell him or bench him in either case

        1. The Sarjeant
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Why would you bench him? Bonkers!

        2. skodaole2
          12 years, 1 month ago

          Adebayor scores often vs Arsenal i think. However Totenham are playing extremely bad atm. I would do the 2nd if you intend to captain Di Maria else keep and do it next week for free

    3. mod33
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Defo ADM & Ulloa

    4. kalmoffit
      12 years, 1 month ago

      B. Though I don't understand the need

  21. Efan Ekoku Pops
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Quick one before work please guys.

    Naismith + Lovren > Ulloa + Bertrand (double up on Saints)

    Worth it for 2 FTs?

    1. XhakaCan
      12 years, 1 month ago

        Naismith to Ulloa for sure.

      Do Naismith > Ulloa
      Not a fan of doubling up on defence

        Can't afford it now. Missed price rise/drop 🙁

    LvGs comments on Mata is not good for him. I kind of get it tho, with ADMs average position so advanced, rooney is better at covering defensively than Mata. Looks like he will fall for the Mou argument.

    1. SouthCoastSaint

      Mata getting that ball nicked off him just sums up his defensive capability.

      R.I.P in piece Mata

      2nd season running that Mata has been backstabbed by his manager

      Classy player. Hope he can land somewhere he's wanted soon.

        expensive bench fodder for 37 million as well... but what's a few pounds hither and there

      What did he say? poor dactics from him dropping Mata I think, he is United's best 10 and Rooney's best position is up front. It should be RVP & Falcao who get rotated to play with him as they are too similar in styles.

      1. grapesland

        He is a nice and classy player, but not industrial enough for a top PL side (or a side aiming to be at the top). Ozil is suffering from much of the same, although in some matches, when the team is set up around them, they can look like world beaters.

        But basically, it is a team balance issue.

    city play Hull (A) Roma(H) Villa(A) within a week!

    can u see him start all 3? coming not injured in all 3?

    1. skodaole2
      12 years, 1 month ago

      If he is fit, he should start all 3. City must win all of these games

      Exactly why I'm staying away from him...

    3. kalmoffit
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I can't see him finishing all three. Jovetic should be back too.

    Is Pellè really that good though? Even with the fixtures.

    1. Nabs Kebabs
      12 years, 1 month ago

      not imo.

      Stats don't lie.

      *unless it's ADM

        Don't talk to me about stats. Eriksen anyone?

        1. Christina.
          12 years, 1 month ago

          What about him? We all knew the Spurs milfs & Ade were interchanging all the time.

      He is very hard to watch on telly that's for sure. Can be a bit clumsy and spits the dummy a lot. But he seems to be doing the job plus hopefully Tadic moves into a more central role when Mane joins the squad which would mean his chances to score should increase. I've joined the Pelle bandwagon because of this Tadic move so hopefully it pans out.

      how good is that giod

  25. Indio

    Should I do Chester > Wilson (planning Wilson > Chambers GW8); or just get Chambers now?

    Or should I just take care of Krul? (Have 0.6 in bank, one FT)

    Also while Stoke's fixtures look good, how do we rate their chances of actual cleanies materialising in next few weeks ?

    Krul/Elliot
    Cahill, Clyne, Wisdom, Naylor, Chester
    Fab, Siggy, Sterling, ADM, Wanyama
    Rooney, Costa, Pelle

    1. Joggers Nipple
      12 years, 1 month ago

      To Chambers now imo. Not worth planning a future FT on a 4.5 defender

  26. mod33
    12 years, 1 month ago

    To dangerous to go with out him bit of a risk but it's worth taking.
    Also same could be said about Costa
    Mou already stated he can only play once a week

      Price changes?

  28. Warning Hazard ahead
    12 years, 1 month ago

    Voice of reason, you can only have four out of Sterling, Fab, ADM, Ramsey and Siggy. Does anybody have the first four and not Siggy?

    1. Moe Milan
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling Hazard ADM - No Siggy No Ramsey (scary though)

    2. Think Tank
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Not yet, but aiming for Fab, Sterling, Wally and ADM with cheap 5th

      1. Warning Hazard ahead
        12 years, 1 month ago

        That's what I'm aiming for too, need to upgrade Siggy soon to Ram/Wally or Silva if he fires

    3. Patty
      12 years, 1 month ago

      I have no ADM

    4. Warning Hazard ahead
      12 years, 1 month ago

      Sorry should read Fab/Haz as they'll score a similar amount of points this season.

    Gervinho's hair line goes so far back it's still playing LW for Arsenal 😯

    Play Mannone over Krul this GW?

    1. Think Tank

      I would.
