The Big Numbers – Gameweek 24-25

We delve into the previous two Gameweeks’ data this afternoon after the quick-fire schedule saw a couple of rounds of fixtures take place over the last six days. Southampton and Leicester’s wide men with an eye for goal, Liverpool’s raiding wing-back and Burnley’s in-form striker are amongst today’s candidates, whilst we also asses the lack of impact from a Palace winger and the Saints’ toiling Italian.

    Sterling > Erikson today on FT.

    Can't do if Sterling drops or Erikson rises.

      Depends how many blankers you already have in your team.

      1. Lazarus Star
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        4 (Kane, Fab, Ivan & Zouma). Will save and build up 2FT for GW28 move.

        Cheers

          A reply! Glad I refreshed before sending that arsey message... 😀

          Yeah, having 5 blankers is just too many. You'd have to field 9 players GW27.

      Would not be my move, that's for sure.

      1. Think

        9 years, 2 months ago

        Sterling to cheap F and upgrade ur striker to costa if u can afford.

      Just wait
      Fa Cup and Champions league still to come

      A bigger player on your team could get injured

    I have to do Sterling to Walters for my GW27 and DGW28 plans.

    A) Do now and play Clyne against Liverpool and Walters against Aston Villa.
    B) Bench Clyne and play Sterling, bring in Walters just in GW27

    Not long in,cracked open a cold one hoping to see the scout picks until I realized it's Fa Cup week 😐

    To make matters worse there's cricket talk 😥

      LBW? 😉

      1. Think

        Nop clean bold!

      2. Optimus.

        Less of it 😉

        Shouldn't it be called BBW? As it can hit any part of the Body.

          Is the hand included?

          1. Sheep
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            Not the one holding the bat. Everything else though, I think.

            I dunno, I don't follow cricket.

    Is it worth -8 points to bring in rose and green on the DGW

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Unlikely.

    2. Think
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Keep calm!

    3. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Wouldn't be doing that. Green will concede 1/2 minimum in both games and Davies and Rose IMO will share a game...

    4. Ibracadabra´s Spell
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Just Rose because Green has Tottenham and Arsenal fixtures and CS is almost impossible and he can do some saves but he will do 10 points maximum and just 1 GK can do 7 with a CS and 3 saves plus bonus, NO, imo.

      1. Ibracadabra´s Spell
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Ohhh and Ben Davies should play 1 game at least so NO and NO.

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years

        Possibly the most ridiculous suggestion for transfers I have seen on here, sorry...! 😀

  6. andres
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Have loads of money, upgrade punch?

    Panti (Foster)
    Terry Clyne Ballerin (wisdom, hutton)
    Wally hazard punch Mane (boyd)
    Aguero Giroud Defoe
    1 FT. 7.3

    1. Think
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Silva or toure they will kick start and keep doing what they are best at - scoring goals

    2. Lazarus Star
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Giroud to Kane. Defoe to Costa. Punch to Toure for a differential.

  7. Big_Andy_GAWA
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Guys,

    Any suggestions welcome ! What should I do next ?

    Forster / Hamelf

    BAines / Moreno / Cresswell / Bertrand / PVA

    Miralles / Walcott / Hazard / Silva / Boyd

    Aguero / Defoe / Kane

    Thanks.

    1. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Will keep an eye on Miralles. If I think he'll start against Leicester I think I'll keep. Am half thinking of getting Lloris in for his DGW. Would keep Forster for the Spurs blank.

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Have 2 mill ITB...

    3. Lazarus Star
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Downgrade Cresswell upgrade Kev.
      Baines to Ivan (after GW 27)

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, BAines to Ivo will be getting done, I'd say 🙂

    4. Sheep
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Hamelf -> Beefelf

      I wouldn't waste a move on a keeper. You current have 2 blankers so can get away with a 3rd. I'd get Rose or Eriksen in. I would do Mirallas -> Eriksen if you can, Everton are tightening up and Mirallas doesn't look nailed anymore.

      1. FantaCity
        • 11 Years

    5. cowstria
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I'd downgrade some of the def so you can bring in eriksen or somebody for dgw.

      Funny you have baines and mirallas, how do they get on with each other 😉

      Cresswell and Moreno both interesting, but they both don't have the fixtures atm..

      You have some nice differentials, how did it go until now?

      Bank? Ft?

      But first thing: you wait until next Friday/Saturday or at least until after the European games like all of us 🙂

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, I brought the, both in on W/C just prior to THAT WBA game. Stood in front of the tele shouting at Miralles to give the ball to BAines. Incredible 😆 😆

      2. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Am at 2.5K, mate. If I'd gone ahead with a few 'other' decisions I'd be well up there...!!

    6. Your Mum's Athletic
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      without looking into it much, mirallas is your main priority, looking at mane/sterling/ozil, baines also id say can leave

      1. Big_Andy_GAWA
        • 12 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah. Miralles is a concern. If I think he'll start game against Leicester I'll ditch after that. If he starts game between then and now I'll ditch for Eriksen, I think...

        1. 50 Shades Oshea
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          miralles to fab for me next week... and bench in 27

          1. 50 Shades Oshea
            • 10 Years
            9 years, 2 months ago

            downgrade baines to alder and then upgrade boyd to walters... 27 going to be key...

            1. Big_Andy_GAWA
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 2 months ago

              Alderweild ? Sure I have Bertrand and Forster, dude 🙂

    7. A.T
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Mirallas and Silva would be my concern. Play Kevin v lei then maybe swap for Mane is what I'd do.

    Here's an excel doc that shows the CWC fixtures for the first half of the group stage and how long each team has to wait in between matches, it should help you plan your transfers: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18GZ9ZXpMNiXNrsralMrPjX9TmFWgJxdpcDivWRNOwRE/edit#gid=806071520

        Ugh, want to replace Austin but to afford Giroud have to downgrade a defender. Was thinking of getting Toby but unsure now!

    3. Chris_White
      • 12 Years

      If it is for Pellé, then yes.

      1. Danstoke82
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Nah it would of been for Defoe plus a hit as would need to have shifted one of Haz/Silva/Sanchez or Ozil as well.

        Hoping Burnley park the bus.

        1. Chris_White
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          Not worth it imo

    4. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I can't bring myself to do it. Kane, Aguero and Defoe seem pretty golden for this week so can't really sell any of those. What is your strikeforce?

      1. KenJM
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        Kane Aguero & Costa

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 14 Years

          I can't keep track of the grav-less...

            • 9 Years

            ?? dont get that......

    5. Hibbopotamus
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I think you can live with Defoe for one (or two) more week(s). That's what I'm doing. But I won't be shocked at all if he bags a brace and we all curse ourselves for not pulling the trigger.

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

      Of course there is if you have enough FTs and he fits with your GW 27/8 plan.

      Unfortunately for me defender problems are forcing me to use my FTs elsewhere.

  17. Ibracadabra´s Spell
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    For this week.

    A) Keep Sterling and play him against Southampton.
    B) Sell him and bring in Walters,

    I need to do it this or next week, so.

    1. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      A-- I'll take my chances with a fit & rested Sterling.

  18. WHY ALWAYS MESUT?
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 2 months ago

    Panti (Hamer)
    Clyne Ivanovic Terry (PvA Baird)
    ADM Hazard Silva Walcott (Boyd)
    Aguero Kane Austin

    2 FT, 1.6m ITB.

    Need to get rid of two Chelsea/QPR/Spurs players before GW27.

    What do you prefer:

    A) Austin & Ivanovic -> Giroud & Aldeweirald - works great but I lose Ivan before a plum fixture and Toby may not be a guarantee.

    B) Austin & Boyd -> Giroud & Cork - Boyd has horrible fixtures so this makes a lot of sense. Means I get rid of Ivanovic next week though (so I only have 1 FT in GW28).

    C) Austin to Ings/Defoe/Pelle - Can get rid of Ivanovic next week and have two transfers in GW28. However, all three options are far weaker than having Giroud.

    Any other ideas?

    1. Get up ya bum
      • 14 Years

      Boyd to siggy (MUN/bur) this gw bench austin.

    1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
      • 14 Years

      What's wrong with crazy Phil? He gonna be out of action for a bit?

      1. Syd.
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        He is an injury waiting to happen

        If you ever needed somebody to knock a door down with his head he is your man

        1. SuperDunny - Used to be goo…
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          I'm fairly sure he could just pull a scary face and have it down. But yes, his head is a reliable back up

      coleman too expensive

    3. Mata-Is-The-Juan
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      I might have missed the memo about EVE defenders being a good pick but 4.5M gets you a nailed on Saints defender when Alderweireld returns.

      But a) if you must.

        What price is Alderweireld?

        1. Bastien
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          4.5
          but not in FPL tho, haha

        2. Mata-Is-The-Juan
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 2 months ago

          4.8M according to http://fantasy.premierleague.com/player-list/

          I got the price wrong.

    What are the chances of the same number of people who bought Alexis before last GW will sell before next GW?

    1. Epic Fail
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years

      0.000001%

      1. Charlie&TheLads
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 2 months ago

        so there is a chance?!

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Very slim. Likely to be a different number.

    3. Caine & Co.
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      0%

    4. Charlie&TheLads
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 2 months ago

      Has to be the most volatile player over the last GW without having a yellow or red flag!

      i'd wait till end of week and see the lie of the land. assuming nothing more urgent, sell baird, but if i were you i'd hold onto 2nd FT

        Cheers Axolotl makes sense just to keep rolling one over till 28 although I do have my original WC to possibly use if Chelsea have a DGW as well

      Baird is the main weakness there.
      See what happens in FA Cup.

    Play Clyne or Cameron. Also have Wisdom so should I use my 1FT to get rid of Wisdom/Cameron?

      Would probably play cameron if i thought he was starting. if those were my FT options i think i' just keep it and wait for 2 FTs where you can be more creative...
