    Wouldn't RB will raking more CBI playing against all that winger?

    *Darmian v Shaw

    1. Painter
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Both good... But darmian just

    2. NATSTER
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I don't get it. There are right winger too.

      Why RB should rake more CBI?

      1. ​
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Left wing is generally stronger across the league.

      2. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        11 years, 2 months ago

        They are mostly left winger.

        That based on assumption the duel will be more on that side (RB), so wouldn't they got more potential for CBI (or BAPs)?

      If ManU move Depay wide left like they did today, I actually like Shaw because he'll be on that side and more involved in final third play.

      Just my two cents.

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Depay played left v Villa

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Right. And Shaw had 28 BPS to Darmian's 29. Not much to separate them, in my opinion.

      2. sinik
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Disagree entirely. Depay doesn't track back and so Shaw is corralled more. Now if Pedro comes in (when he comes in?) and plays LW and they move Depay back centrally, THEN Shaw becomes better because Pedro can defend.

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          11 years, 2 months ago

          I'm not going to give away members' stats, but trust me that in the Villa game Shaw got a LOT more touches in the final third than Darmian.

          1. sinik
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            11 years, 2 months ago

            I'm a member, link me to the table..I definitely remember hearing this so I believe you but I'd like to see it 😉

            1. BananaNose Maldonado
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              11 years, 2 months ago

              Ha. Fair enough. But I've never created a table and need to work on how to do that and make it public.

              Just run a comparison of Shaw and Darmian, limit it to the current gameweek, and check out the stats. Trust me, I was surprised too 🙂

              1. sinik
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                11 years, 2 months ago

                alright brb

      3. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Decent points.

        I think both can offered something if given chances to roam forward especially Darmian (spend more time at RM/LW/RWB/LWB) last season.

        The only thing that concerned me is his Yellow Card.

        1. BananaNose Maldonado
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Right. Admittedly, it's awfully close. I'm probably just trying to justify Shaw over Darmian to save the 0.1, which I need to make the rest of my team work. So there's that 🙂

  2. Painter
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Gomez or Richards

    1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Gomez is probably the fashionable pick but Richards has a lot of things going for him. Completely nailed, offers more bonus potential, and looks like a decent goal threat.

      I realise Gomez got a 3 bonus but that was on the back of 'assisting' a wonder goal

  3. NATSTER
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I can't decide which K in the City defence that I should go with.

    Keep Kompany in the squad and hope for the 2nd rise then.

    1. sleecc
      11 years, 2 months ago

      If you want to keep City defence for long term, then keep Kompany and don't sell.

      1. NATSTER
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I actually wanna go with Kolarov, but just not sure if his rotation with Clichy will happen again.

        1. sleecc
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Unless your bench defenders are capable to replace him, and willing to gamble to lose an FT to replace him if Clichy instead of him get the starting place.

        2. nedfoo
          11 years, 2 months ago

          I think it will at some point down the track, Clichy will get game time eventually

  4. GreatCarragherReef
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Am i correct in saying that from this point there are unlikely to be any double risers?

    1. GreatCarragherReef
      11 years, 2 months ago

      (This week)

    2. sleecc
      11 years, 2 months ago

      no

      1. GreatCarragherReef
        11 years, 2 months ago

        silva?

        1. sleecc
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Gomis, Mahrez, Yaya

    3. Sadio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Mahrez, Yaya and Aguero will likely go up another .1 this week.

      All those that have already risen shall not rise again.

      1. GreatCarragherReef
        11 years, 2 months ago

        ok cheers, yaya vs silva is frustrating me!

    Thoughts guys?

    Guzan (Myhill)

  6. NABIL - FPL otai

    Morning guys.

    Fplstats now blocked at the office. May I know who are the potential risers/fallers?

    1. ​
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Darmian, Mccarthy, Gomez, Richards, Silva, Shaw, Mahrez, Kolarov, Gomis up

      88 down including: Sterling, Mane, Francis, Caz, Fab, JT, Milner

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        11 years, 2 months ago

        88 :ozil:

        No Haz or Sinclair?

        1. sleecc
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Haz -76.4, Sinclair -109.8

          1. ​

            darnit 😛

        2. ​
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Sinclair yup (-109%)
          Hazard by Saturday (-76%)

    2. sleecc
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Can you set proxy?

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        11 years, 2 months ago

        nope. Actually no idea 😛

        1. sleecc

          Use your mobile phone then 😛

  7. Egg Fried Reus
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I love how Chelsea players have completely disappeared from our teams, I know they aren't performing well but they are the champions and shouldn't be taken lightly. It's not like they are a struggling team fighting to not get relegated. They good become very good differentials in the coming months as well since the future dead teams will have probably got rid of them all. Something to ponder on.

    1. elnino75
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Couldn't agree more.

    2. Alex1111345
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I've kept one Chelsea backline. If there's one thing mourinho will work on , it's not conceding first

      1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Totally agree

    3. Tiki-Taka
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Hazard will score 2 this weekend and all of a sudden people have used their WC and panicking to get him in

      1. andy85wsm
        • Has Moderation Rights
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Didn't score 2 in the prem in a single game all last season.

      2. Bubz
        11 years, 2 months ago

        When was the last time Hazard scored two goals?!

    4. Transient Anus
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I actually have the armband on hazard atm

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        11 years, 2 months ago

        this. Just don;t feel like captaining Kun

    5. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      11 years, 2 months ago

      For sure. But as champions they have been priced accordingly and when performances don't match up they start to look expensive very quickly.

      They seem to have issues at both ends of the pitch and all is not well with morale it seems.

    RMT PLEASE

    Mig (McCarthy)
    Darmian Williams Kolarov (Richards/Targett)
    Silva Sanchez Payet Ayew Mahrez
    Aguero Sakho (Wilson)

    Any room for improvement?
    Thanks in advance!

    1. ZTF

      Prefer Gomis over Ayew. Redmond for Ayew Sakho for Gomis

  9. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Are you still not convinced about Man Utd defence coverage? Then, you must watch the following:

    1. ​

      yes, Van Gaal's great defensively but I'll wait til week 11

      1. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
        11 years, 2 months ago

        I couldn't resist but get Shaw in my team :'( do you know by any chance any decent 4.5 that rotates well with a MUN defender?

        1. ​
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Francis(Bou) or Muniesa(Sto)

          1. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
            11 years, 2 months ago

            Thank you so much buddy

  10. Mouldmaster
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Any love for Courtois at 5.4?

    On WC and can afford him and Kolarov; or Hart and 5.5 (got Darmian already).

    1. Girls like Cars and Man&eac…
      11 years, 2 months ago

      I think Chelsea really needs to pick it up, and they will do just that. Also, Courtois is a great option at 5.4

  11. Gaz Downright
    • Has Moderation Rights
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Why is Darmian a lesser risk than Shaw?

    1. KingNidge
      11 years, 2 months ago

      because darmian doesnt have a natural right back to challenge his position..

    2. Van Klinkert Delarosa
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Lesser risk as in?

      I think he's bigger risk, as he seems like a card magnet.

      1. Gaz Downright
        • Has Moderation Rights
        11 years, 2 months ago

        my bad, i meant as in not starting games. i agree with the disciplinary concern

        1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Both seems like an equal risk then, Valencia (RB) and Blind + Rojo (LB).

          But currently, they playing very good, so it's safe for now imo.

          1. andy85wsm
            • Has Moderation Rights
            11 years, 2 months ago

            That's not equal 🙂

            1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
              11 years, 2 months ago

              It actually is, because one of Blind or Rojo will be playing as CB?

              1. andy85wsm
                • Has Moderation Rights
                11 years, 2 months ago

                Fair point actually! +1

    3. Barry Woj
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Shaw had a lot of injury problems so perhaps there's a bit of fear about that?

    4. andy85wsm
      • Has Moderation Rights
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Less competition for his place. I would assume less injury prone than Shaw too.

      1. Gaz Downright
        • Has Moderation Rights
        11 years, 2 months ago

        and adding the BPS factor as well, you are still opting for Shaw?

        1. andy85wsm
          • Has Moderation Rights
          11 years, 2 months ago

          Yeah, I probably wouldn't follow me, but I have my reasons.

  12. thegab

    Shaqiri and Zarate or Diouf and Montero/Shelvey?

    RMT Out of 10 Please

    Courtois/McCarthy

    Williams/Huth/Richards/Cameron/Targett

    Depay/Payet/Silva/Montero/Albrighton

    Costa/Gomis/Aguero(C)

    1. GreatCarragherReef

      6/10. Downgrade costa, courtois and montero. swap albrighton for mahrez

      1. GreatCarragherReef
        11 years, 2 months ago

        oh and spend the money on upgrading huth to darmian/shaw

    2. ZTF
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Costa not worth it. Also could get sent off any game. Midfield not strong enough.

  14. GreatCarragherReef
    11 years, 2 months ago

    YAYA vs Silva is a toughie on WC. Think i've decided on Silva as i really don't trust Man City to not sign another attacking mid before September, which would likely push Yaya deeper. Someone tell me thats valid reasoning... please

    1. Gravless wonder
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yaya is already part of the deeper midfield two, but has license to get forward. Navas is the one likely to drop out for another attacking midfielder. It shouldn't effect Toure. Overall, it's your choice depending on who you think will score higher.

      1. GreatCarragherReef
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Voice of reason. Not sure i can justify silva really

    2. j-whitehead-
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Yaya's cheaper and has more points, that's enough for me.

    How did Rooney do tonight?

    Depay looked quality from what I've seen.

    1. Belalugozi78
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      better than in last PL game.... should have an assist but Depay missed easy chance

      i think he is gonna start and azpi will go to RB both terry and iva will be rested

      Small chance

        Is it worth doing target to baba rahman?

  18. Lizard Lips
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Good thing about Yaya is he enables Sacnhez and Hazard, with Silva this becomes mighty difficult!

    1. Jeremiah
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Aguero too?

    2. j-whitehead-
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Does this team have Aguero as well? Got to be impossible!

    3. Lizard Lips
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Not impossible but yes its' not pretty!

      1. j-whitehead-

        Then you better be good at picking the right captain

    4. mrtapio
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      11 years, 2 months ago

      same! Have Aguero and Sanchez. I want Hazard, but then I have to go Silva> Yaya. And I really want Silva too. Dont know what to do yet. Silva or Hazard has to go. Who?

  21. Van Klinkert Delarosa
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Personally think opting for expensive players over cheaper players is the way to go, because it's more flexible and easier to downgrade rather than upgrade.

    As in Darmian v Shaw, Silva v Yaya.

    1. Demí
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Too simplistic. What about what you could do with the money saved by getting Yaya

      1. ​
        11 years, 2 months ago

        a Bugatti Veyron and still have change

      2. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        11 years, 2 months ago

        Depend on what formation you are using.

        Right now there is more player in lower bracket price worth investing to especially in midfield, so money really not an issue.

    2. Gravless wonder
      11 years, 2 months ago

      interesting theory

    3. j-whitehead-
      11 years, 2 months ago

      But what happens to the other positions? A bad example but:
      Silva + Rooney vs Yaya + Aguero?

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        11 years, 2 months ago

        It doesn't factorized other position, because most people undecided on player in the same position.

        As in Kolarov or Kompany, Silva or Yaya, Shaw or Darmian.

        Also you should put your priority, in this case (Aguero v Rooney) - should be decided first.

    4. sleecc
      11 years, 2 months ago

      Once downgrade wouldn't that against your theory then?

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        11 years, 2 months ago

        It's not really a theory but an easy fix if you make the wrong choice on those players.

        You picked Silva, but Yaya perform - you can easily downgrade to him.

        You picked Yaya, but Silva perform - will be hard to upgrade.

    Schmeichel

    Cédric/Clyne/Bellerín

    Sánchez/Ayew/Mané/Payet

    Agüero/Benteke/Gomis

    Sorta wanting Depay because of tonights performance and the fact he's playing Newcastle
    will bring in yaya after this week

  24. Jeremiah
    11 years, 2 months ago

    Best option?

    A. YYT & Benteke

    B. Silva & Diouf

    Have Kun already 🙂

    1. @BigChrisso
      11 years, 2 months ago

      A) YYT in form it seems and can keep pace with Silva in the short term. Tekkers will outscore Diouf over the medium to long term but Diouf is in fine form atm

  25. ​
    11 years, 2 months ago

    I've finally taken the hit I've been pondering the last 36 hours and this is my team now, rather happy with it and WC in tact 😀

    Myhill [Hennessey]
    Kolarov, Gomez, Muniesa/Huth, [Targett]
    Hazard, Silva, Depay, Mahrez [Bentapleb]
    Aguero, Pelle, Sakho

      With wildcard intact that is a lovely team. In some ways I actually prefer it to my wildcard team just because you have players I don't feel I can justify on wildcard but that will do well 🙁

            Depay's the only one I'd absolutely swear by at the moment. His shot volume is incredible and well you saw the quality of his goals today. Best 8.5 in the game IMO

      Did the same 2 days ago, the only thing i'm worried about is Alexis on Monday night. Could get ugly for us non owners

        Hazard and Alexis are the only two I'm really watching this weekend, if I'm okay as is, then I'll likely roll my FT barring injuries.

    Hi all, I have 0.5 and don't know what to do with it, in the meanwhile can you RMT by any chance? I wildcarded.

    Courtouis - McCarthy
    Darmian - Kolarov - J.Gomez - Bassong - Francis
    Alexis - Silva - Mane - Mahrez - Westwood
    Aguero - Diouf - Gomis

      Mane > Depay IMO
      The rest of the team look good

    Current WC to be set before the weekend / after price rises:

    Butland / McCarthy

    Kompany / Shaw / Williams / Richards / Targett

    Sanchez / Depay / Payet / Mahrez / ????

    Aguero / Gomis / Diouf

    Have no idea who to put as my 5th mid. I have 7.2 to spend

    Silva now on 100% to go up .1 Mane at -97 was hoping to see the Saints game on Thursday before making this change grrhhh

    Got to make this transfer right?

    What are the chances of the risers/fallerss actually moving in price!

    I'm taking a hit and thinking of:

    Rooney, Ivanovic and Walcott to Gomis, Kompany and Silva.

    Should I get Sanchez instead of Silva?
