😆
it was brutal!btw mate, they can't be relegated to a French league.
lol my b
Whats the 4th division called again?
League Two spelt in English 😉
ohhh it was just a typo then hahhaha
😀 glad you finally nailed it.
I'm sorry if I've upset you, Ruberx. I was just doing what the gaffer told me to do. I was playing the ball but Alexis' quick feet made it difficult for me to execute my tackle effectively. I apologised to him after the game and we shook hands. After suffering numerous injuries throughout my career, I would never go into a tackle with the intentions of injuring an opponent. In saying that, I apologise for the tackle. Sorry.
😆
😆 Class Innsie
OMG I had no idea you were around! 🙄
I knew that dirty little prck was behind it all!
😀
Priceless 😮
you ruined my day, along with many others
hope you are happy for providing so much miseryRuberx - I am aware that Alexis has many admirers. Personally, I love watching him play as I'm sure you and many others do as well. However, I find your accusations quite offensive. With over 500 professional games under my belt, I've received just 2 red cards. My career tally of 33 yellows is also below the norm for a Premier League central defender. I am not a dirty player, as my teammates and managers I have worked with would agree on. As I said before, I would never wish an injury on someone, especially a fellow professional. The fact that the referee didn't even call it a foul shows that under his professional eye, there was very little malice in it, and it was not a deliberate offence. The matter has been resolved and Alexis has forgiven me. I wish him a speedy recovery.
I forgive you Matthew Upson and I'm sure Alexis did too. Considering that you are getting up there in your career, I will take your word that it was just a mistimed tackle which ended up looking alot worse than it was.
I never wanted to believe that that it was predetermined and deliberate. But unfortunately this does happen from time to time especially with teams that really have nothing to lose.
Just take it easy on my boy next time, will ya?Thank you for understanding, Ruberx. All the best.
I'm waiting for Alexis to log in before assuming that.
I can't understand the referees this season so naive whether its tackles or penalties.
Players like Sanchez hazard suffer who are the top ones in the leagueYes, the inconsistency between refs is annoying but kinda expected in this sport. Football's kind of stubborn when it comes to evolving the game and defining new 'fixed' rules
Honestly, only thing that worries me about Alexis is his physique holding up the whole season.
The top players to bring in b4 dgw?
it is all about saving a transfer so you can have 2 free that week.
eriksen/costa/oscar/cesc
No Hazard in that lot?
everyone should have him already
Even Kane. And when's the Chelsea dgw?
unknown atm. it could be gw28
How many Gw 27 blank players are in your team currently and who are they? Who do you plan to keep/sell?
I have Terry, Wasilewski, Hazard, Kane. Probably just sell Wasil.Terry,Haz,Kane. Keeping them all. lets see if CHE has a double in 28 as well.
yep hard to justify moving any of these out
if CHE has a DGW in 28 might even play with 10 in 27
Hazard and Oscar. Oscar will leave in GW27
any idea who for?
Probably Sigurdsson
Who if anyone will you have GW28 from Spurs and Chelsea (if they have a DGW)?
Sorry, missed the comment. Kane, Eriksen, Hazard and Costa 🙂
I have Zouma, Hazard, Kane. May sell Zouma
would that really be worth an ft?
All depends on what happens with Chelsea's DGW. Right now Wisdom's on the chopping block before Zouma, maybe even Hutton too
Hazard, Terry, Kane, Eriksen, Wasilewski.
Bit lost right now on what to do?post your full team with ft's and money in the bank. more than happy to help out
Krul / Panti
Terry / Fonte / Bellerin / Wasilewski / Wisdom
Hazard / Sanchez / Tadic / Eriksen / Colback
Giroud / Aguero / Kane
1 FT, 0.7 ITB
Thoughts?try and save the ft this week. Then look at ditching Eriksen and Wasil in gw 27 with the two fts.
I was thinking very similar to this, thanks for backing up my gut!
3 - Terry Haz Kane atm. If I go Costa this week might be 4 - but all depends on FAC result.
Zouma, Hazard and Kane
Will get Costa, Erik and maybe Rose/VertI currently have Azpilicueta, Hazard and Kane. I don't see a need to shift any of them at present.
im not playing captain hindsight, but i still cannot believe that kun was captained by only one of the top 15 players.
not in great form , fixture isn't good relatively
and Sanchez OOP was a trap
Zasa, how are you calculating those odds you were quoting in your discussion with Triggerlips?
Paddy Power clean sheet odds mate 😮
Ah, I see. I've never been a big fan of bookies odds as a predictor because I expect they move with the market.
True, still a good rough estimate though. When in doubt, I always use that to help me pick my bench/defender
what is the scenario where CHE would have a DGW in 28?
If Leicester beat Villa in the FA Cup this weekend.
If not, likely to be DGW 31 or 33.if they played like they did today, they could well beat Villa. Mahrez looked awesome!
Villa beat Leicester this weekend and it being organised in time.
Leicester to lose this weekend.
Krul foster
Kosc terry clyne pva wolly
Walters hazard Sanchez Oscar Elia
Kun Kane giroud
Any thoughts
1 ft .1 itbsave it. Team is good and with .1 itb there's no way you're getting a YYT or Costa.
Save FT. Planning to keep all BGWer?
Just building for the dgw's
Assuming tomorrow's games don't dramatically change the picture, a Chelsea player, probably Oscar, is surely on the chopping block soon given the coming blank GW. But given they play Burnley next maybe hold this week so you can do it the following week and carry a FT into GW27.
So keep (Oscar hazard Sanchez )and Elia to Erikson ?
Sorry, I'm confused now. Are you saying you want to bring in a Spurs player before they have a blank Gameweek?
I'm monitoring Oscar tom
so funny how this site is dead after a miserable day in FPL.
Indeed. i suspect many people are on depression mode a la Ruberx
not upset anymore since he apologized 😀
😀 good for you!
I estimate my post rate is down at least 90% compared to yesterday.
Its fine I think as most others haven't done well either.
There are bound to be a few delighted tho but most will be in the same boat!I'm here because I actually have some time tonight, which I haven't had much of recently... and not because I captained Walcott.
Having said that, while I don't normally like shouting about things going right, I feel happy to talk about things going OK this week because they've gone wrong so often this season I don't feel like I'm being a big head. 🙂Same here, once in a blue moon do I get to make a little humble brag, if that.
Nice captain choice mate. Of course, part of the reason we went for different choices this week is because we're actively looking for ways to be different because we're chasing.
It's surely a vicious circle, no?
and thanks Diva, was unlucky not to a goal or two from him after that backheel!
It can be if our differentials fail, but if we get them right... Up we go!
I think the key now is trying to work out when to go different and when to stay safe. I could have gone different last week but Aguero before the game seemed such a great choice that the risk of dropping back seemed greater than potential benefits of going up.
that first assist was more a deflection but who cares you'll take it
good call on not bringing alexis back either, worked out in the end
Thoughts on Sanchez at the moment,,
Ozil suddenly looking the main man at Arsenal or even Wally?
Assume it has been raised already but surely Ozil's assist will be taken off him? Shot from outside the box which was saved. I had thought only happenings like this counted if inside the box?
Doesn't matter where the shot is from. Could be a parried goal kick and still be an assist for the GK.
Jammy ass points today though. For him and the Goons.
The location of the shot doesn't matter.
Thanks! Has the rule been changed this year or am i just delusional?
I don't want to call a man delusional, but I don't think the rule has changed. 😉
Since it's very quiet,
Which transfer look better?
A. Silva -> YYT
B. Giroud -> CostaB, given Giroud's current status in the line up.
Silva is at least starting matches, albeit out of position and quite non-influential.Good points. But then removing Giroud right now looks too kneejerky imo.
Maybe a 1 week punt tho.. might be worth it.
may be worth it, may be not. Like you mentioned, a blank and possible suspension are too much to take.
Costa will miss a GW tho soon and may be banned again within a week or 2.
I could make this same transfer..but these points are making me think otherwise.
Not YYT
You think so? But City (the gaffer especially) need him to step up to mount some serious challenge for CHE.
Aye, but define step-up? By goalscoring? Not sure here Nabil, they need his creativity, deliveries and influence in midfield more than anything. His long rage goals and FK's are just an added bonus, definitely not what they truly need right now.
City were fine with Negredo and Aguero up top to score goals last year, and Bony and Aguero will do the same this year hopefully. What they need is a midfield enforcer in YYT to dictate games and let Aguero have the space to make runs with ease, they need better service. I don't think goalscoring is a prerequisite for YYT and Pell, he definitely has the ability to score from range when the space is available, but they need a creative engine in central midfield right now. Nothing more to it, IMO.
I can't see YYT being a good option, IMO with Aguero fit and not having pens. Hefty price tag and with the likelihood of Sturridge and Costa being fit in tandem, they will both become genuine options soon for some. YYT is a luxury for me at least, and very hard to fit in.Good points there Zasa.
Negredo and Aguero were fine last year, but then when Kun got injured Yaya become the main man. This year we could see that Yaya had his moments too, although not as great as last season. I agree that he might not be a great FPL pick again, but if City really want to defend that title they need him to deliver again.
Another point is fixtures are pretty plum for City from now on, so I'd be interested to get more City assets. Bear in mind that city defense has burnt us before, though.Yes good point, YYT definitely has had his moments this season but IMO, they've been few and far betweenwhen Aguero was on the pitch.
He's scored 7 goals so far this season in 17 game in the Prem. Yet only managed 3 goals in the 13 games him and Aguero played together in the Prem (counting aside the Everton game when he scored a pen after Aguero's injury). The rest have been when Pell played with the false 9 system when Silva subsequently when on a fine run slotted in the hole and two of those goals being penalties.
I think the Silva and YYT will both have less goal scoring prowess with both Bony and Aguero up top, IMO. Can't see how YYT will take as much offensive burden now, Pell needed his offensive threat tenfold when Aguero was out but I think that request is negated now and will revert back to being the midfield enforcer that he's always been
What to make of Nasri in all this? Nailed on still to start?
Good chance to start, albeit he's fighting Milner for the RM spot and he offers better defensive contribution. It's between them though and perhaps you should expect Pell to favor Milner for the big games when more midfield solidity is needed, not to certain though
Wow, that stats are really insightful. Cheers for it.
Yeah I think we will revert back to the Kun-is-enough-for-City days in no time. However, I'm quite intrigued with the prospect of Bony. If he proves to be successful, then a big decision has to be made - replace or double up. What do you think of that?I can't make too fair of an assessment until he plays tbh, but if he's partnered with Aguero I think the possibilities are endless. Could be a massive differential and Bony is also still high with confidence/form and coming out of a substantial performance at the AFCON.
Could maybe even go for a double-up 😯
Verdict's still out on how he'll fit in though, very interesting for sure. I expect nothing less than 3-0's and 4-0's from City soon as they are feeling the pressure, and YYT will be back to boost the team up and straighten them out
My gut reaction to that choice is:
A. Meh
B. Do you have a wildcard left?
🙂Yep. 😀
If CHE is confirmed DGW28, I think I'm WCing for that GW most likely.If you're wildcarding for GW28, then B could be tasty.
Wait I've just seen that Sanchez is injured again.
I'm sorry but...
LOLJust a knock.
how old are you?
How bitter are you?
not at all. Just feeling amused
Lol did you not see the game or my rant above ?
I switched back over to Spurs-Pool around the hour mark.
Krul / Panti
Terry / Fonte / Bellerin / Wisdom / Wasilewski
Sanchez / Hazard / Tadic / Eriksen / Colback
Giroud / Kane / Aguero
0.7 ITB, 1 FT
I'm thinking of saving the FT this week, then preparing for GW27 blank by removing Wasilewski and Eriksen.
Does anyone have any recommendations for who to replace them with for GW27, keeping in mind the Spurs/Chelsea blank. Would have 13.1 in the bank to spend.If you're curious about the correlation between possession and controlling space. This is a great take on it if you're interested
http://2plus2equals11.wordpress.com/2015/01/25/territorial-advantage/Interesting article on possession
anyone mind to sum up in brief , about Sanchez Caz and Ozil performances ? was too late for me to watch .
I only watched the first half, with Myanmar commentary, but I thought Ozil looked class, Sanchez got clattered early on and fuc$ed his knee, and Caz looked good. Ozil was key though.
that makes it a little hard to decide who to get rid for ozil..
very hard. I'd do nothing for 10 days personally.
cheers anyway !
cheers mate
interesting to note Ozil took the corner kick, not cazo or sanchez but sanchez was the striker...so i am not bothered, but cazooooooo
Wenger played a 4-3-3 with Ozil - Alexis - Theo up top
Well you can assume how Alexis's night went with the injury.
Leicester put an emphasis on Cazorla and he got caught in possession many times. He wasn't as dominant as he has been.
Ozil was his usual self. Poised, yet aggressive when he had to be. Got an assist to Kos from corner and theos goal came off a rebound from Ozil's shot
Theo pace is unbelieveable. I haven't watched him before , and I'm really impressed. His touch seems to be coming back as well.i guessed between ozil / wally, ozil seems safer for now?
got to replace cazo soonthanks !
Anyone got any numbers for hits taken in the top 1000?
Cheers.I don't, but the guy who is currently top this game week took a 56 point hit to be where he is.
standard for the lads who play the weekly game.
good money in some of those leagues.
This looks like one of those gameweeks defined by if your captain has played yet
I'm hoping it's defined by Kolorov.
Do u guys think Sanchez knee is OK?
I notice Ozil had taken the corner kick instead of Cazo / Sanchez, omg arghhh!!!!!!!...and all the better for it. Ozil's ability to find a pass is sublime. I'm pleased to see him back in some semblance of form.
As for Sanchez's knee....I'm sure he will be OK for gwk 26.
I have a UFPL team and have one place for a forward in tomorrows games. Who would you bring off the bench?
a) Gayle (CRY)
b) Sakho (WHU)Surely the fixtures decide this?
Gayle at home to Newcastle
Sakho away to Southamptonyeah....i kinda fancy Sakho score though. You are right...thats what i needed.. thanks!!
Points with players to go?
31, 5 players left19, 5 players to play.
7 if you include subs?
28, 7 left.
20, 5 left 😎
24 with 6 to go. captain already played
13, 7 including captain.
19, 5 left
20, 5 to go.
Caps? I still have Haz.
Im getting annoyed now.
Zasa - he with only one season and in 42,000 odd position, trying to tell me how to play the game.
The bench decisions i made with my defenders were the logical ones you bafoon. If all you do is go by the highly innacrate paddy power clean sheet odds, then you will never be any good.
Clyne , Bellerin and Van Aanholt, had massively better chances of attacking points than either Zouma or Kompany, far outweighing your highly innacurate clean sheet odds
If you must go by clean sheet odds then at least choose the most accurate, ie those on the betting exchanges, not the bookmakers, who only draw up odds based on their liabilities not the actual chances of a clean sheet actually occuring
Now stop going on about a discussion you had wih me, there was no discussion, just you replying to my comments hours after i logged off
EjittriggerLAD
Dude....chill out. It's just a game as they say. 🙂
😯
I logged on three times today and every time i seen Zusa talking about how i was wrong to bench Kompany and Zouma
What? I said that once in Inns's thread and then just replied to you after your sarcastic comment. I said it was a strange decision and you're over exaggerating
Frankly speaking brah,
I would have played kompany instead of van...Looking at your history , i believe you
Right im off out for a much needed runBut then again, I would be super annoyed. Bellerin would be my pick and its really 55/45 going in with kompany and van. So no reason for zasa to salsa....
Um... Sanchez?
Triggerlips, I normally enjoy reading your fantasy football thoughts so I mean no offence by this but can I suggest you come back when you are feeling a little calmer. While I happen to agree with the thrust of your argument on bookies odds (as evidenced by my response to Zasa further up this page), there's no need to be so aggressive in your argument.
And if you're getting this talk of "discussion" from my exchange with Zasa higher up, it was I that used that word, not him. My apologies if that categorisation was incorrect.How am I telling you to play the game? Because I found it a strange decision to bench said players? are you serious? You're over exaggerating and taking things completely out of context.
Yes, it's my first season and I'd still consider my chances of finishing in the top10k decent 😮
I don't follow the PP odds like the bible, I said when I'm in doubt I follow those odds (i.e like this GW's defender headache).
That may be true and also considered that, but nevertheless Chelsea were/are the favorites to hold the line this GW and for a reason.
You're taking this to another level Triggerlips, what discussion are you talking about? Diva asked me a question on where I took those odds and replied, that it. You're taking this too personal.
lol @ zouma in team/23 pts from 7/kompany benched. fail
woho chill man. It's just a game.
I must admit that by reading your blog, you have football brain but you don't have to be Bitterlips too. Just let it go man.Take your own advice, bud.
I will, if that helps you.
In game as in life, everyone from your wife to your mother will keep telling you how to run your life. Listen to them, nobody knows everything, but you make your own decisions, and cannot blame anybody else if their advice turns out wrong.
Any ideas who Leicester's double gameweek opponents will be? Thanks. 🙂
Chelsea and Man City if GW28
Stack Leicester players for GW 28, me thinks.
With those fixtures you've got to be kidding.
I appreciate that sarcasm is hard to understand through internet, but come on, I am not that stupid!
Although, you heard it here first, if they someone manage to get a double win.
I'm a bit dense today. Been up since 4:30am. 🙂
What if lei is actually wigan in disguise?
The gaffer has told us it'll be either away against Manchester City, or home to Swansea or West Ham. But as a team,we're just taking it one game at a time.
Thank you Mr Upson. I will remember to avoid Jeffrey Schlupp then and particularly yourself. I don't forget a face...
SANCH
EZ
Folks, need some help. Badly.
Panti (Hamer)
Ivanovic Terry Clyne (PvA Bellerin)
ADM Walcott Silva Hazard (Boyd)
Aguero Kane Austin
2 FT, 1.6m ITB.
Got to take out 2 Chelsea/QPR/Spurs guys before GW27 (ideally leaving 2 FT so they can slot right back in for DGW).
Austin -> Giroud & Terry/Ivan to cheap defender work? That way, in GW28, I could bring in Costa/Eriksen for Giroud/ADM (or Silva/Walcott instead of ADM).
Worry is that means I can't get in Sanchez for a bit. Very worrying indeed.
Thoughts?
Lastly, what defender would you get? (up to about 5.2m).Defoe instead of Giroud?
Had thought about it but the GW27 against United is worrying - especially as I'll have 3 players out that week already.
This. Easier to get Sanchez then. No need to worry about GW27 vs United imo.
How come?
Your plan makes good sense
Alderweid for 4.8 if hes back?Not a priority but Clyne is pricey at 6. So Clyne > Alde is on my radar.
Yeah, saving 0.7m seems worth it TBH.
Yup, Thought that as well. When does he get back though?
Am I right to suggest that everyone is scoring low due to Sanchez blank and only QPR AVL kept cleansheets (and nobody fields their defenders)?
Yep. And most people are still left with 5/6 players to play. Differentials will become key for tonight.
Hopefully Jones and/or Silva will save my GW 🙁Aston Villa didnt kept clean sheets 🙁 No Kane would be my excuse
Any suggestions for the below, guys?
Krul / Panti
Terry / Fonte / Bellerin / Wisdom / Wasilewski
Sanchez / Hazard / Tadic / Eriksen / Colback
Giroud / Kane / Aguero
0.7 ITB, 1 FT
I'm thinking of saving the FT this week, then preparing for GW27 blank by removing Wasilewski and Eriksen.
Does anyone have any recommendations for who to replace them with for GW27, keeping in mind the Spurs/Chelsea blank. Would have 13.1 in the bank to spend.For starters I'd save the GW27 FT so I have 2 FT for GW28. Better to plan that way.
Who should I transfer this week then?
Wasi definitely. Terry or Eriksen are less explosive than Kane or Hazard.
Play 10 man or take a -4? Tough call. Your 1 week punt must net you more than -4, also watch trade values swapping in and out.
Wont remove Eriksen if you want him back. Wasil to Naughton/Wollscheid
Who will be wigan's version of great escape this season?
Looks like CPL or HUL.
Wigan's version?
Kramaric probably or even Ings😳 Thought you were asking player's name 😛 I would expect Burnley to survive
I would say Burnley because they work so hard but I can't see them coming out of this run of fixtures in good shape. Should be Villa but they look horrid atm.
What happen to Hull City.
Gosh they turned 360 degrees and start scoring
Green arrows with 22 points, captain played and only 5 players left - sure will mean a massive red arrow when today matches are played?
Same here.
Right, what to do with this group?
Heaton (Hamer)
Cahill, Bellerin, Aldy, PvA, Wisdom
Hazard, Sanchez, Puncheon, Downing (Albrighton)
Kun, Kane, Defoe
7.1m ITB
Thinking of shipping Cahill, would like to have 10 guaranteed starters for GW27 without taking a hit. I've boned myself by keeping Punch and Downing this long, might as well wait a little longer.Hang tight. Wait for injuries tomorrow (also Aldy's fitness status). You have 10 days to decide.
9 years, 3 months agoDear Matthew Upson:
After watching the replay in slow motion several times, I am disgusted at your dirty antics. I was a central defender for many years. I see what you were trying to do there. Eyes directly focused on Alexis's left leg. Absolutely no intention of playing the ball, following through deliberately with a two footed tackle. You may have fooled many, including the ref who for some reason didn't even call a foul. Oddly enough, there were also several questionable tackles on Cazorla and Ozil as well.
Makes me wonder.
Wasilewski conveniently got dropped for this game even though he had been playing fairly well.
You haven't played ONE minute of ANY game all year.
Did you have a planned agenda prior to this game?
Did that Pearson scumbag put you up to this?
Taking one for the team?
Wouldn't surprise me one bit.
If you can't compete with the best, then the only way to try and stop them is to resort to aggression and brutality.
If you can't beat them, BEAT THEM?
I sincerely hope you and Leicester don't win another game this season and get relegated all the way back to Ligue 2.
👿
BTW
If you think this mentality doesn't spread through a desperate, losing locker room, then I'm sorry you are just naïve.
I'm not overreacting, being biased, and I'm not bitter about Sanchez blank at all.
I am more upset that this kind of behavior slips under the radar.
Watch the tackle again, and look at it carefully. It was completely reckless.
Thankfully, it wasn't too serious in the end and Alexis will be able to recover. It did severely impact him for the remainder of the game though, you can tell when his knee gave out and he slipped while running toward the corner flag. Really surprised he wasn't subbed off at half-time when it was 2-0 .
That's all, I feel better now.
