The first members’ article of the week arrives this evening as we delve into the data from Gameweek 6. We check in on Chelsea and West Brom’s new attackers, assess Everton and Southampton’s lone strikers, and cast an eye over Liverpool’s main performers in light of Brendan Rodgers’ move to a 3-4-1-2 formation at home to Norwich.

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

    I'm hoping the big hitters start delivering so I can make good use of my WC. Feels like it's just rotting away atm. None of my opponents have it available, or own any of the premium players.

    Would be a nice differential for me - at the moment I just don't know when to play it

    1. Dogba

      Play it when you feel like you can make big improvements to your team.

      Just because your team isn't performing isn't a good reason to play it in my opinion if you can't improve it with the WC. A lot of people WC-ed really early without getting big improvements, in some cases they might even have made it worse.

      do it GW10 or 11 i think it is when fixtures change for a few teams.

      Tripple Everton could be sweet

      1. Costa's Counsellor
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, amazing fixtures for them.

      I'm planning on playing it GW 14 .. Dont want to play it during the international break(12 to 13) since there's always minor injuries/rest/rotation in the GW after and i'd rather wait a week and let the injuries settle. Can then set a team up with Chelsea/Everton/Manutd etc and aim to have a stable team for 18 or so GWs so that you can use the 2nd WC in DGW season

      1. RustyBz
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        But then that gives me 4 GW's until my opponents get a new one to use again and bring in those premium players easily...

    My Shelvey punt may actually end up working out.. Siggy to be dropped vs soton is the general consensus by Swans fans on their forum. Would not be suprised after his horror show last night

    1. Ryan
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I think its likely. Ki deserves to be starting and Siggy has underperformed so far this season, he doesn't warrant a start.

      1. Valar(Keith)
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Yup.. can see a midfield 3 of
        Cork-------Ki
        ---Shelvey
        this week.. Siggy was horrid last night! and he has been poor in most of the games so far too.

          Must be suffering from burn out. Needs a long break.

    What's a decent team value now?

    I'm at 100.7 with 2.5itb.

    800k overall rank, guess TV ain't important now, but could be later in the season..

    1. Morbius
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I've got an overall rank of 250k, with a TV of 103.8

      Not a big gulf between prices / ranks. Seems to be very tight this year.

    2. S.Kuqi
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Sv more important

      1. Dacra

        101.5..

        1. Morbius
          • 11 Years

          Also 101.5

    3. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      What's your SV? mine's 101.1 and i'm pretty happy.. thanks to Martial and Payet of course

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      This guys got best of everything:

      £97.9 + £7.4 itb (£105.3 total)

        He'll be sorry when Sanchez and Aguero smash it this week! :p

      • 10 Years

      102.5 at 1m
      I'll classify myself as list fodder skill wise, though

    5. Dogba
      • 13 Years

      101M TV 😎

      1. Dogba
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        I'd say anything above 102M is pretty good this season.

  4. Sepp Blattered
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years

    Gomis or Ayew?

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Ayew

  5. GoonerByron
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    What's with the Pelle flag? Likely to be fine for the weekend?

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      minor foot injury, Koeman says he should be fine. Might even play league cup.

      1. Sepp Blattered
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        I imagine he'll give J Rod and ShLong a run out

          • 12 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          yeah makes sense if there's any worry at all.

    1. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Does flags increase the NTI limit for price rises as well?

      1. Pasqualinho
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Nope - NTI limit for rises is the same for all players. Flags tend to limit people's desire to bring them in, however.

  6. Mahesh_Kumar
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Francis or Prodl for the next 2 months?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      The latter

      1. Mahesh_Kumar
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Thinking the same but Francis just loves to attack and seems to love bonuses

    2. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      prodl imo

    3. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Prodl

  7. waputs101
    • 10 Years

    Im on holiday this weekend so this is my only time to finalize my lineup:

    Butland
    Darmian Kolarov Azpilicueta
    Sanchez Silva Payet Mahrez
    Aguero Gomis Wilson

    got 0.5 itb, 0 FT. GTG? or any move worth a hit? Thanks!

    1. waputs101
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      sorry, bench is Ruddy, Dawson, Gomez, Wanyama

      1. super zlatan
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Nothing worth a hit. Nice team

    2. SUAREZ_MESSI_COUTINHO
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      If Silva is injured long term then transfer to KdB, if not then Good to go.

      1. waputs101
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        unfortunately, im on hoiliday mode starting tomorrow, i cant check on silva news anymore, Dawson is my first sub, hopefully they can salvage a cs against Everton. 🙂

    3. Hooky
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Looks gtg. Who's your captain?

      1. waputs101
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Kun. No balls to capt the others. i live and die with Kun (C). lol

        1. Hooky
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          He's surely going to get a decent haul soon. Wish I'd stuck with Kun rather than putting it on Benteke last week!

          1. waputs101
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            hopefully. every week i keep on telling myself "he's due!", i hope this is the week!

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      good to go, enjoy your break and don't you dare waste any time on the hotel wifi checking back on here!

      1. waputs101
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        if i got wifi, ffs is the first site i would go. next is fplstats of course. 🙂

    4. Boris Bodega

      Giggity - I've gone mental and gone 3-5-2 😯

      1. super zlatan
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        What's your team giggity?

        1. Your Mum's Athletic
          • 14 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          How does this look in the cold light of day (took a -4 to bring in KDB, Ighalo and Payet moving to a 3-5-2):

          Butland

          Kolarov Souare Targett

          Sanchez De Bruyne Payet(vc) Pedro Mahrez

          Aguero(c) Ighalo

          Subs: McCarthy Wilson Lovren Morgan - Just enough cash to do, Lovren ➡ WBA def and then eventually Morgan ➡ Francis/evans double up

          1. Bielsa's Blue Bucket
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Bertrand's return imminent, Targett may not start

            1. Your Mum's Athletic
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              one more week out of him then he's fodder

          2. super zlatan
            • 14 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            Beastly midfield. This team could work. I'm tempered to put the armband on payet this week.
            Aguero doesn't inspire me. What do you think?

            1. Your Mum's Athletic
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              Payet my vice captian, really tempted just the fear of Aguero is strong in me

          3. Sjaugen
            • 10 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            I'm with the same formation.
            My Vardy/your Wilson better keep calm this GW

            1. Your Mum's Athletic
              • 14 Years
              10 years, 2 months ago

              let's hope so bud

  9. ChrisCross
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Which of these moves to make for free?

    A) Özil - Sanchez
    B) Özil - Hazard
    C) Yaya - De Bruyne
    D) Ritchie - Ayew
    E) Save

    Cheers

  10. drughi
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Do people expect mahrez and payet to be top 5 among midfielders in points by the end of the season ?

    1. super zlatan
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Yes

    2. H U G O
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I can see it happening tbh.

      1. drughi
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Would be incredible considering their price at the start of the season.

    3. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I would say not - but, injury permitting, they'll be Top 10 ish. Although Top 5 by value looks a good shout.

      1. drughi
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        yeah definitely by value

    4. naits
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Hard for Mahrez not to be in top 5 in the end. Already 25 % on the way to the score Hazard had last season

      1. drughi
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Thats why I'm asking, for me personally I'm having a hard time seeing mahrez score 200+ points.

      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Mahrez good chance. Payet hell no, somewhere 7th-15th.

    5. LC1
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Mahrez for sure! Gutted I haven't had Payet in my team at all yet this season.

    6. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Top 6 imo;
      Silva, Hazard, Sanchez, Mahrez, Ozil, Payet

  11. McQueen
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    No news on Silva, really waiting to see whether to make a change to KDB.

    1. H U G O

      Really would appreciate an update on Silva. I Can't wait 2 days 🙁

      1. McQueen
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Especially when KDB is gonna rise tomorrow. 🙁

        1. H U G O
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          May have to just go for it. Although I also need news on Diouf

        2. Sjaugen
          • 10 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Pedro price loop?

    2. pompeyfan
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      check the stickies, there was some news on Silva - something about him hopefully being fit for the weekend

  12. super zlatan
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    If silva is injured who should I replace him with?

    A) haz

    B) KDB

    1. Your Mum's Athletic
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      B

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

      B. Only cos City are a more free scoring team than Chelsea.

    3. H U G O
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Was Going to ask this myself.
      I'm thinking Haz. But won't have enough for Gomez > Azpi.

    4. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Hey Zlat!

      B for me (as a Haz owner). KDB is looking good, involved. Haz still sluggish to what we expect from him. Also City score and create a lot.

  13. Iceball
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Butland
    Kolarov Gomez Dawson
    Sanchez (C) Yaya Mahrez Payet (V)
    Aguero Wilson Diouf
    Schmeichel Francis Richards Westwood
    3,7 itb.

    Order of priority to get rid? 3,7m itb.
    A) Diouf
    B) Gomez
    C) Westwood

    1. Dogba
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I would save, but if you are doing something this GW I'd ditch Diouf if he is still injured.

    2. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      A.

    3. Limbo
      • 15 Years

      A. By a country mile.

  14. Every Dog Has Its Day
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Is Agüero lacking confidence?

    1. Pasqualinho
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Seems like it. His penalty last night might have helped a little - but it looks like he needs a couple from open play.

    2. sminkypinky
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      He is. And a certain sharpness. The killer instinct if you will.

    3. Sjaugen
      • 10 Years

      Flopped a goal last night

  15. Fader
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Diouf to Sakho?

    Butland
    Kolarov - Zouma - Nyom
    Sanchez - Hazard - Payet - Mahrez
    Aguero - Martial - Diouf

    1. Every Dog Has Its Day
      • 11 Years

      Yes.

    Benteke out Lewandowski in for -4 y or n?

    1. OPTA FPL
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Dont think you can afford to get Lewan by -4

    2. The Machine
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Lewondowski plays in bundesliga. This cant be ucl or europa as liv and bayern dont play in the same competition. Also, lewondowski is probably much more expensive

    Good morning all,

    I am a YYT owner considering a straight swap with KDB, is anyone in a similar position? I have enough ITB but can't do it til next GW.

    Should I even care about this or should I focus instead on swapping Sanchez to Haz?

    Thanks

    Getting Sturridge seems to be the biggest differential move i could have done..

      Keeping in mind he came in for Kane, when Harry scored i thought everything is going so wrong 😀
