As we brace ourselves for yet another international break, we turn to Saturday and Sunday’s fixtures and delve into the data in our first members article of the week. We assess Southampton’s chief creator and main frontman as the points start to dry up, cast an eye over Chelsea’s penalty box predator, Man City’s talismanic Argentine and Newcastle’s recent defensive displays as the clean sheets keep coming for Alan Pardew’s men.
Di Maria -> Hazard?
was considering that then i had a look at adms goal threat stats. better than haz
in what period? Definitely not last 4
Mislead by shot outside the box?
Yeah I think I'd save (or maybe do ADM -> Hazard if you can)?
yep only costs 0.1
not sure i want to do that thoughFair enough, I'd probably save then, and try to downgrade Tadic and get Baines in for Clyne next week.
Just a quick note on Spurs vs Stoke.
People were saying Chadli was non existent but from a fantasy perspective, aside from his goal, he should have had an assist within the first minute, crossed it to Mason who didn't take the chance remotely well enough.
The other point I'd make is that Bojan's goal was a feckin beauty, great run and finish, two matches in a row he's looked very very good. Keep an eye on him.Kane, not Mason.
You've just answered a point I always make... "From a fantasy perspective" people forget this.....
Someone made a point about Austin as an example, if you want a goal scorer, he's your man, does nothing but score...Exactly that, points are points!
Someone said earlier that Kane missed a sitter aswell that wouldve been a Chadli assist
That's the one I was talking about, watched again and it was Kane.
That miss was so poor that I now understand why he doesn't start.
He had 2 big chances created in UFPL so there must've been another sitter missed.
Oh dear, squandered his chance in the first team possibly...
No, not from Kane. Chadli created 2 big chances. One for Kane that you mentioned and another for Ade that I haven't seen. So should've had 2 assists to add to his goal 😡
Ahhh jaysis, he's having all his chances wasted, no wonder he scores them himself instead!!!
Adebayor...of course
A bandwagon that ended before it even started lol
I'll be honest, I would have lost my temper and taken him off immediately.
😆
Bojan's goal was great, but feck me that defending was amateur. The only player that went anywhere near him was Rose, and he's the fecking LB
Agreed, the run was easy enough, the finish was what really impressed me, fair old distance out.
Seems to be a confidence player, might do him some good.
Cisse to who?
A) Berahino
B) Austin
C) Sakho
D) someone elseB or C.
Ayoze
Will he keep his place? Because yes, he is an option
Was Wilsons injury a serious one?
Pulled up and was hobbling around, I have a concern it was a left hamstring injury.
Hmmm, international break could help us here.
Absolutely, though I think I may wind up ditching him anyways.
Considering the following:
Fab and Pelle to Chadli and Costa(-4)
Currently on
Krul Foster
Clyne Baines Duff Chambers Moore
Siggy Sanchez ADM Fab Marney
Augero Pelle Sakho
Only thing putting me off is Costa's four yellows! But he has West Brom next!I'd do it.
Fab on 4 as well, right? Not much risk added to the squad.
Posted this on last page but didn't get any feedback if anyone can help......
Need some advice, I wanted to get ADM in but for Downing but it ruins my defence. Where would you invest in next and in who?
Guzan, Jackupovic
Clyne, Bertrand, Duff, Wisdom, Hutton
Siggy, Downing, Fab, Sanchez
Aguero, Costa, Pelle
2.9M ITB
ThanksWho's the 5th mid? I would not be bothering with ADM, he's gone of fthe boil, and that defence is cheap as it is. I'd be looking to get Baines for a Southampton defender.
i agree with doolittle
Boyd sorry
Yeah sounds good thankyou
If you're getting ADM, it has to be for Fabregas I think. I definitely wouldn't get him for Downing (their stats are very similar). And I wouldn't do it for Fab this week.
So probably wait a week then next week either Fab > ADM or someone else to ADM and downgrade Pelle.
get Baines in there, probably for a saint.
Yeah sounds good thankyou
Chadli or Downing? Currently on Downing for the better fixtures.
This is after the next GW btw.
I'd go Chadli
chadderz
You lot are way to grumpy for me.
It's Monday.
I don't need this.coming from you
loltoo*
lol
Youve got a great heart.
this'll cheer you up bugger

Hey you guys are such great amaZing people but which option is best till january wc:
A) Bertrand and Wellbeck
B) Baines and PerezIf Perez is nailed, definitely B for me.
Hi lads. Anybody know why Coloccini was taken out early? Is he injured?
Didn't watched the game, but according to BBC, he was injured
He took a knock, not sure how serious though - hopefully the 2 week break means he won't miss any games.
Yeah, hope he recovers soon enough for QPR. Still pretty pissed by the fact that I benched him for his monster haul 🙁
What do you think about these choices?
A: Pelle + Fab ->> Costa + Chadli
B: Welbeck + Di Maria ->> Costa + Downing
C: Pelle + Welbeck + Clyne ->> Costa + Austin + Yun
My MF are : Siggy - Sanchez - Fabregas - Di Maria - Boyd
And I have Forster + Clyne at the back.
There are way too many characters in that post, my eyes are hurting!
But from what I can make out:
Keep Pelle, ADM and Clyne, and shaft Welbeck and Fab. Thats just based around the fact I don't like the latter twoSorry about that long post. 🙁
I haven't tried what I can get if I do Welbeck and Fab out. I will try. Thanks 🙂
And get Costa
All are good Choises but who many hits for each one
Just 1 hit for A & B, but 2 hits for C.
who is the best 4.3 defender pick until wildcard
Yun/Dummett. Nothing like best, you have to rotate them, every now and then, they have difficult fixtures
A- ADM & Pelle & Dowing > Chadli & Aguero & Bridcutt for - 8 pts
B- ADM & Pelle > Aguero & Bridcutt for - 4 pts
I thin A is better Getting Aguero & Chadli for - 8 pts
my front players are : ADM - Siggy - Dowing - Fabregas - Sanchez with Costa -Pelle - Berahino
Wtf is Bridcutt??? 🙂
Combative Sunderland midfielder - ex-Brighton. Not a fantasy prospect 🙂
Dude can u help me plz
any Player with 4.3 M DOOSRA with 4.3 to can do the Transfer so what do u think ...
Colback should be your aim, then. Only B for me - don't like the other one.
I read birdbutt there
Bridcutt? 😯
How much is he? Would prefer Jedinak or even BoydSo basically you're asking whether Downing -> Chadli is worth a hit? I'd say not personally so I prefer B.
Okay Thanx
Guys plz don't talk about that Bridcutt and help me plz any player with 4.3 M
I would keep di Maria, actually. What is your TV, please?
Team value £104.6m
Well, here is the plan, should anybody be interested:
Berahino to Austin(done)
Pellè to Eto'o
Tadic to Hazard
Leaving me with:
GW 12:
Begovic
Chambers, Clyne, Baines
Sánchez, di Maria, Hazard(c), Sigurdsson
Agüero(vc), Eto’o, Austin
Fabianski; Downing, Dummett, N Taylor ... - 4, 0.7 ITBEto'o! Looks punty/good
I know, i know.. You're the numbers guy - I trust you.
🙂
Eto'o could be a great punt. You don't think Tadic and Pelle will do well against Villa?
Sure. But their figures have dropped, and I am very anxious about Hazard.
I'm with you on Hazard, I've kept him since GW1 and I'm expecting some big points over the next few weeks..
Eto sure to start? Would start Downing over Eto'o tbh.
Yes. I will probably go Downing over Sigurdsson, tbh.
Well it looks like fun! I think the Berahino move is good (not sure about the others at this stage.)
Eto'o is a hell of a punt. As an Everton fan, I'd say he's by no means nailed on, but it could be an excellent differential.
Check his History. 🙂
As usual, I'm certain you have the homework done so it looks good to me!
I like the tables, nice stuff Dooz
Was all set to shuffle Costa back into my pack, but Eto'o is mighty tempting - thxThe one who is frightening me is Hazard.
Eto'o?
Check fixtures, too. 😉
I don't think Martinez knows his best attacking option yet and while he tries to work it out Eto'o could be in and out. I think Martinez would prefer him as a reserve but Lukaku's hit and miss form means he's getting more game time.
Agree on Haz.
Who would you pick out of Eto'o and Austin?
Chances at least one core FPL player get injured during the break?
a) 0%
b) 20%
c) 50%
d) 70%
100%. It'll be Sanchez after I transfer him in
Would make my choices easier if someone did for sure.
20
D), I reckon.
Didn't happen last break but I sort of hope a short term injury/known rotation occurs to make things trickier.
Yep. I am doing all my transfers as late as possible.
20% for a core player.
Would you accept a trade where you receive Falcao for Balotelli in a draft league?
When is Falcao back?
That's the issue, no one knows, and LVG has said that two strikers isn't right for the balance of the team. So much for 352 I guess
I'd stick to Balotelli. Sturridge can only help him.
That's what I'm thinking too
No, seems like swapping one liability for another
Morning all, still gutted about my decision to bench Colo over Chesthair.
In need of a decent, cheap defender for the next 3-4 weeks.. Been looking at Duff, Trippier, Yun, and dare I say it, Caulker. Thoughts? Leicester/Villa defender could also be an option..
Morning peeps.
Not sure who to play for GW12 out of Chambers, Duff or Hutton
Any suggestions?
Duff prob
Have Kun and Costa.
Is it maybe to for Pelle owners to downgrade Pelle to another cheaper forward who is banging in goals to help with funds elsewhere?
He has done well but Villa, City, Arsenal and United are next 4 fixtures.Maybe trade him for Austin next week?
am thinking the same thing.
but wait the week or do:
Sterling or Fabs and Pelle out Sanchez and Austin in.
This is What me also, and Many others are Now thinking. I Think i will See after next gw..
it's when kiwis get their brid cut at the baker
Time for a new phone 😛
Hey Champ.
How do I get Baines in. Drop Costa/ADM/Cesc?
Pochettino found out?
I always thought he got all the credit for Southampton's success on the back of some great foundations built by Adkins. Good manager no doubt but I think he had a dream set up at Soton, Spurs are another story...Yes and yes. Disaster for Spurs. Again.
They're really in crisis, need some miracle work done but Jesus plays for City 😉
😆
Issues there. One mistake he can rectify quite easily is to stop playing Eriksen out of position.
I think there's an awful lot of feckin about that needs to stop in general.
Spurs had a kak squad to be fair.
.
Plus his treatment of Vertonghen is embarrassing.Lloris is fantastic, before they signed them Chadli, Eriksen and Pamela were some of the wonder kids of Europe, striker position needs filling, everyone wanted Dembele in their team, they have Ben Davies rotting on the bench and are badly mistreating Verty.
Squad is good enough to be doing far far better imo. Poch isolating players.Lol at Pamela, *Lamela!
he's Moyeys 2.0
and Koeman is Martinez 2.0
Spurs is United 2.0
Soton is Evertron 2.0My head hurts.
what?!
Adrian(Guzan)
Ivan,Bertrand,Naylor(Hutton,Duff)
Adm,Sanchez,Fab,Siggy(Boyd)
Costa,Welbeck,Valencia
1ft 0.5itb
What changes should I make to my team? Any advice would be much appreciated 😀
Coming into international break with a -4 already taken sounds like a WC waiti g to happen.. 😐
Always good to have that backup if 2 or more injuries occur.
Tak
Siggy or chadli? (To get in)
I'd rather have Siggy, just don't trust Spurs and Siggy plays in behind Bony where Chadli may play in behind or is pushed wide,
How do you check how many FPL players there are in you country league?
Scroll through the league.
you used to offer to do that for people.
Who to replace PVA with? Current back line is PVA, Chambers, Duff, Baines, Clyne (0.2 ITB).
strugglign a bit on this one. Was just going to hold if only out for a couple of weeks but looks like months now.Naylor for Swans might not be a bad option
Krul (elliot)
Baines, Ivanovic, Bertrand, Clyne, (wisdom)
Hazard, Sanchez, Downing (Boyd, Cattermole)
Aguero, Costa, Berahino.
Keep transfer? Was thinking Berahino to Austin?
Berahino to Austin a bit sideways I think.
Berahino will get good fixtures after 2 GWs
Maybe change him to cheapo and upgrade ur mids?
Line up this week
Baines - Lovren - Clyne (Duff/Taylor)
Hazard - Schniderlin - Downing - ADM (Obertan)
Welbeck - Aguaro - Ayoze
2.4 ITB
Used this weeks FT on Berehino > Ayoze
Already played wildcard and regretting it.
Main issues are deciding what to do with Welbeck and Schniderlin.
Any ideas? Appreciate any help from people in advance.I'd be tempted with Schneiderlin to Siggy/Chadli, but prob Siggy
Schneiderlin fixtures toughen up plus I don't see him returning much over the seasonIt essentially all adds up to how I get Sanchez in. Welbeck + Schneiderlin > Eto only leaves me with 9.9 so a whole 0.9 off the Chilian genius. Hazard has got to start smashi g them in soon so can't use him for dosh. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp.
Bridcutt bandwagon incoming 😆
I'm gonna stay off that wagon.
The name is defo worth jumping on - keep reading birdbutt...
Guys
Having a hard time to figure how to put Costa in as well as maintaining balance.
Currently on
Krul Gilks
Baines Clyne Naylor Duff Wilson

ADM, Pelle for Chadli, Costa (-4)
Change one of the mids using FT
