The Big Numbers – Gameweek 8

With West Brom and Man United set to see out the Gameweek tomorrow, we delve into the data from the nine matches played so far. Unsurprisingly, Man City, Southampton and West Ham’s in-form front men are on this evening’s agenda, whilst we also cast an eye over a couple of improving north London-based midfielders.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Never going to get dzeko ever again

    Morning all. 🙂

    Team atm-

    Krul
    Baines - Clyne - Naylor - Wilson - Moore
    Fabregas - Mane - Sterling - Sigurdsson - Marney
    Aguero - Costa - Pelle

    Had 2 FTs. Used 1 do get Baines.

    Now I'm thinking of doing Naylor+Sterling>Hutton+Sanchez for -4. Worth it? Have exact cash to do it.

    Hutton has QPR this gw. So shouldn't be too bad and Sanchez looked very dangerous and he has Sunderland up next.

    Or do I wait it out and Get Walcott in a week or two (helps me getting in Azpi after his ban)?

    HELP please.

      Morning Doc.

    2. Les Bleus
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Your team is very good for this week. Besides, Naylor has Leicester this week.

      Save IMO.

        Cheers.

        Saving would be wiser I guess. But I'm getting a Sanchez feeling.

    3. Christina.

      Wait imo for Walcott/Ramsey. Gives you another week to decide who to ditch in that midf.

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Morning Tina.

        Think that'd be wiser. Fabregas may well be on the chopping block soon. Need ADM asap as well. Maybe better to have 2 FTs going into the next gw.

    4. Gunner HitIT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Why not get Tadic and sanchez both could be explosive these few weeks? Defense is good no need to change

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Cheers.

        I'm keeping the faith with Mane for now. I'd back him to outscore Tadic over the next few.

    Wow, those Sigurdsson numbers are an eye opener, definitely food for thought.

    1. Rambo Motin
      • 11 Years

      Selling material?

    2. Billy Gilmore

      0 shots, still managed a big chance missed. Tekkers 😎

    @Tina: Costa --> Aguero this week?

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Who knows. Who knows....

      Waiting for Triggerlips Blop to give me some advice.

    2. Puyol Pants Up

      Ask an expert

  5. SpaceCadet

    86 points after subs 🙂 ........tempted to get in tadic or pelle for the coming gw....any suggestions for this lot? cheers

    1. Gunner HitIT

      yes Tadic or get rid of moreno imo

      1. BigManBakar
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        This

    2. money face bandwagon
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      looks good. save FT imo. only out might be hazard but they have QPR soon so i will want to keep..

      1. money face bandwagon
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        oh and moreno..u should downgrade him to hutton

  6. Catilo
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Transfered in Azpi and he got red, so what to do for next GW:

    A. Play bertrand, naylor, and duff (bench wilson and azpi)
    or
    B. Azpi --> coleman (my ML leader got baines, hence dont want him)

    1. Catilo
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      And already transfered in tadic for GW 9, so no FT left

    2. Gunner HitIT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      A

      1. Catilo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years

        Cheers gunnerhitit

    3. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Wouldn't want to keep a 6.1m defender rotting on the bench and losing value. Ditch him for one of Baines or Coleman.

      1. Catilo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Good point. Now I'm monitoring on costa news,should he play, I will get new deff, if costa crocked, well.. that's more problem then

    4. money face bandwagon
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      just want to comment that at this stage u should get the players that u think will score better..not who ur ML leader has..and i think baines will do better than coleman

      1. Catilo
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        True, but I think baines and coleman are at the same level. Trues that baines got set pieces duty, but coleman just loove to pop in the box! Just like he did yesterday, might be bias thinking..

  7. Galfadez
    • 10 Years

    Falcao to bag 3 tonight to make my decision to trade him to Aguero tougher

    1. Gunner HitIT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Get kun

  8. Billy Ketsu
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    @ Christina. Why are you selling Welbeck? I'm considering him as a Costa replacement if he turns out to be crocked ( I think he may well be ).

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Because I want Kun, while keeping Costa,

      Btw, I don't think Costa is crocked.

      1. Christina.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        ..and besides, Welbz is kak.

        I prefer Walcott/Ramsey.

        1. Billy Ketsu
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          He is a bit kak but he's going to get a lot of tap-ins when Wally, Ramsey, Sanchez and the like get going.

          1. Christina.
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            True. But I will be owing Walcott at the time.

            😉

      2. Billy Ketsu
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Ah, ok. I didn't realise you were Kun-less. What's the plan, downgrade Welbz to Berahino or Sakho and get Kun that way?

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Welbz/midf->Kun/?

          Unless Costa is out for a while. Then it's just a straight Costa->Kun swap.

    Guys need your opinion on my team:

    Begovic | Myhill

    Clyne Wisdom Azpilicueta | Colloccini, 4.0m

    2. Iamjack

    1. Gunner HitIT

      yes do it

    2. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      What transfers are you making to get this?

      1. Iamjack
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        sterling + 4.8 striker to pelle + milner @ pundit of punts

        1. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Team looks good. But why Milner. Just get Boyd or Obertan imo. You can do with that cash if you need to upgrade Chadli in the future.

          1. Iamjack
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            ok. so should I do (-8) ? its too much. . imo.. bt can't resist

            1. pundit of punts
              • 11 Years
              9 years, 6 months ago

              Maybe just the -4 this week.

  11. The Man Pastore

    Hi everyone,

    Foster - Guzan
    Baines Bertrand Hutton - Azpi Moore
    Chadli Hazard ADM Siggy - Obertan
    Costa Aguero Naismth

    0.1ITB / 0FT

    Guys, I don't know what to do now...

    1) Should I wait Azpi to be back and play hutton oe swap to Clyne for -4?
    2) I want to upgrade Naismith by downgrading Hazard to Tadic, should I wait next week or take a hit this week?

    1. Gunner HitIT
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      1. Swap azpi no point of keeping till 3 GWs

      1. The Man Pastore
        • 9 Years

        to clyne or other suggestion?

  12. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    My Favorite article...but technically the GW has not ended yet....

    1-0 victory to United will be a perfect scenario Fantasy wise for me...with Rooney scoring the goal without an Assist

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Rooney is suspended. lol

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        forgot that 😆

          😆

  13. pundit of punts
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    How many players do you still have from your gw 1 team?

    I have 10 in my team. 😯

    1. Iamjack
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      5

    2. Moin

      6

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      You dont do transfers? 😮
      I have 2- Clyne and Van Aan

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Shifting players in 3 positions only. 2 striker spots and 1 mid. Sterling,Siggy and Fabregas have been great.

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Ok... My starting XI was poor plus I have played WC 🙂

    4. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      9. Much higher than I realised, but includes some players I'd rather not have. Go on then what are yours? mine:

      Krul Foster Duff Clyne Terry Hutton Marney Fabregas Costa

      Sold and rebought Costa though, and likely to sell Terry this week

      1. pundit of punts
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I still have Clyne,Wilson,Naylor,Moore,Siggy,Fab,Sterling,Marney,Costa and Hamer.

        1. Scoredelario
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          I still feel stupid for not having siggy in gw1! Overestimated manu that's for sure

    5. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Only 5 left. Mind you, played my WC this week.

      1. Rasping Drive
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Gilks Moore Sterling Wisdom and Sig

      2. Scoredelario
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        5 is a lot considering you wildcarded

    6. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      6

    7. Warning Hazard ahead
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Only 1!! Costa, to think I had players like Shaw, Mata, Snodgrass, Bojan, Luis, Shelvey and Cameron...

  14. Scoredelario
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Unless there are some injury shakeups, I am set on bringing in Coleman to have the mighty expensive, mighty attacking back 3 of Coleman, Baines, Clyne

  15. Puyol Pants Up
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Done my transfers early and now I'm scared Espically since one of the players I transferred in is a west brom player...

    1. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Part of the game. You gotta take some risks at some point.

    2. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      The fear shouldn't come from your cheapies. They don't need to do much do prove their worth.

      I think people get too worried about their 4-6 mil players having the occassional blank

  16. Mojo Rojo
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Ditch Sterling for Tadic in order to do PvA > Baines for free?

    1. Iamjack
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      do it now !

  17. RamaJama

    Good morning!

    PvA to

    A) Kaboul
    B) Chambers

    1. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Chambers

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Thanks. A bit worried thathe gets a yellow nearly every match and not sure who's got the best cs potential the next weeks.

        1. kesh
          • 9 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          note he might be playing centre back instead of full back if Koscielny is out longer. Lower chance of cards but also lower chance of attacking points IMO.

    2. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Tottenhams defense was not good against City, Neither was Arsenals....tough one...prob B..scope for improvement is better

      1. RamaJama
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

        Thanks

  18. The Man Pastore
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    HI Guys!

    What would you do with that lot:

    Foster - Guzan
    Baines Bertrand Hutton - Azpi Moore
    Chadli Hazard ADM Siggy - Obertan
    Costa Aguero Naismth

    0.1 ITB / 0FT

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      select a starting 11 for next GW

      1. The Man Pastore
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        Would you keep Azpi in your team though? or should I swap him for Clyne for -4?

    2. kesh
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Nothing worth taking a hit over but I would suggest in the coming weeks downgrading Azpi to Chambers and using funds raised to upgrade Naismith or replace Siggy with Tadic (depends on if you like Naismith or Siggy more)

  19. Moin
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    For a hit is

    Cahill, PvA, Silva --> Coleman/Baines (prefer Coleman), Kompany, Barkley worth it?

    Hazard has been disappointing and Silva frustrating because he is unselfish, PvA also not that good prospect now...

    I can do

    Hazard, Silva, PvA --> Oscar/Fab/Di Maria, Barkley, Coleman/Baines

    or should I just avoid hit?

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      4pt or 8pt hit?

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        4

        1. Rasping Drive
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          I am a Hazard owner and also getting a bit frustrated. But with QPR and WBA just around the corner, it's risky getting rid. If you are going to do it, I would get Cesc. Didn't see the Everton game but hear Barkley played very well. All round could work out for you with Evertons fixtures.

          1. Moin
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 6 months ago

            thanks!

    2. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I agree with getting Baines or Coleman but I would prefer avoiding most of the other transfers.

    3. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      What's in the bank?

      1. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        1.1 currently

    4. pundit of punts
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Hold another week imo. You'd have 2 FTs and better flexibility.

      1. Scoredelario
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I'm assuming he has 2FT since he can make 3 changes for -4

        1. pundit of punts
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 6 months ago

          Ah right....

      2. Moin
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I have 2 FTs right now

  20. Mr. Greedy
    • 14 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    This might sound a bit left field but what about James Milner as a pick in midfield? Seems to have nailed down a place and is playing well, unlucky to only hit the post v spurs.

    1. Moin
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I think because of the CL match he was played against Tottenham..bad pick according to me

    2. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      I would avoid City Mids altogether. Not enough consistency from any of them at the moment.

    3. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Aguero. Nuff said.

      1. Mr. Greedy
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 6 months ago

        I mean as well as Aguero. He's only 5.3, played 90 mins in the last 4 games. Obv he's potentially a bit of a rotarisk.

  21. Rambo Motin
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Ivan , Fabregas , Welbeck > Jags , Chadli , Aguero -8 worth it?

    1. Scoredelario
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      No.

    2. Aussie_Toon_Lad
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Way too sideways

              Just lucky. That's what this game is all about.

              People that did Costa->Kun and got in Pelle/Tadic/Baines are smiling. I've seen 120+ scores.

    Hello all,

    How about this?

    Foster
    Baines Clyne Wisdom
    Fabregas Sterling Eriksen Sigurdsson
    Costa Aguero Welbeck

    Krul Hutton Marney Chester

    a) Chester TO Chambers
    b) save

    I would love Pelle or Tadic but don't really want to drop anyone unless Costa is out (for Pelle)

    Could Fabregas face any further action for shoving Campbell? Could have easily been sent off.

      No - was seen and dealt with by ref (yellow card)

    Better cs potential the next 6 GWs, Arsenal or Spurs?

    ARS: SUN a, Bur h, SWA a, manu h, WBA a

    Spurs: new h, avl a, Stoke h, hull a, EVE h, che a

    1. Venom Snake
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Chambers is the value pick but arsenal defence is worrying

    2. Punty
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 6 months ago

      Probably Arsenal, but both teams looks pretty bad at the moment.. At spurs Kaboul looked clueless this weekend.. At gunners it's an injury-crisis, and with koscielny out people are finally starting to realize how average Mertesacker is..

  29. Punty
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 6 months ago

    Yesterday I was considering bringing in Baines and keep Ivanovic, specially since I had a 0.2m loss if I sold Ivanovic.. but after I went to bed I did Ivanovic -> Baines despite my previous thinking.. good move? Think I'll try to survive another gw without Tadic..

    Krul
    Clyne Baines Wisdom
    Sigurdsson Chadli Sterling Fábregas
    Pellè Costa Agüero

    Subs: Schmeichel Henderson Dummett Duff

    Azpi - Clyne for hit? got Baines and Bertrand too

    1. Rasping Drive
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years

      Probably not, who are your backup defenders?

        Hutton moore

    2. kesh

      Azpi->Chambers?
