After delving into the Gameweek 5-8 data for Defenders yesterday afternoon, we now set our sights on the midfielders. Arsenal’s in-form duo arrive under analysis, whilst we also cast an eye over City and West Ham’s summer signings and analyse the recent displays of Southampton’s wide men as the fixtures turn in their favour.
calm down theres over a week yet
KdB one I am looking at. Sanchez could be considered as well
Kdb for me as well
Alexis Texas
I am the captain now
WALCOTT
We don't even know the extent of Aguero's injury yet. Why can't we all just take a deep breath, wait a couple of days for news and then think about the transfer options if they're required. It gets a bit boring on here when every comment is pretty much a version of "Is Aguero for Pelle/Lukaku/Sturridge etc a good idea?"
No need to freak out just yet.its a kinda obvious topic though isnt it
Sure, but its already been beaten to death with a stick
lol@ the idea of everyone on FFS taking a deep breath and waiting a couple of days on anything
In the middle of an international week its not like there are any price changes to have to worry about
Because it's international week and everyone is bored.
Any excuse for a tinker.
Hazard& Barkley >> Sanchez& Mane for -8
yah or nah?
Mind if I ask when did you transfer in barkley?
Oh Sergio...oh my darling Sergio. I promised to give you the armband every week, you had restored the faith of thousands, and now you tear your hamstring, and with it tear us asunder. Think of what could have been Sergio...
You know FPL has taken over your life when you wake up to 3 messages, panic that something important has happened, and then see it's 3 Kun injury announcements from friends.
That is something important! 😉
How bad is Aguero's injury, just an hamstring or something more serious?
Hes deed
Ffs :'(
They're all dead, Dave. Dave, they're all dead. Dead, Dave, they all are.
I had a good night sleep and when i woke up i learned that Kun was injured.Why the hell he had to play in a meaningless friendly????
it was a world cup qualifier, about as important match as they come
and he wore Messi's number.. and they lost..
I dread to think just how many people already bought Aguero after those 5 goals, even more so how many took hits in an international week.
One popular FFS member springs to mind 😉
For a hit 😉
I know someone who used to post here but doesn't really any more has taken a hit. Ouch! Could still be fine of course....
Poor Doosra...
I thought he'd gone without Aguero? Surely this news is great!
He took a -8 to bring him in!!!
Oh wow! Well he might still be alright....
What will be annoying is if he's ruled out only for a couple of weeks - those bits of news are always a bit tricky to work around.I think I'd just downgrade and keep the money ITB to get him back. I still have my WC, so may use that in a couple of weeks.
People who have wildcards left could really benefit now.
Wonder how many used it this week!
seriously 🙁
134k in
Not surprising I guess - 5 goals was pretty decent 😉
132603 !
Based on posts here Aguero is dead I assume?
Already used my Ft and even took a hit. Lesson learned once again."once again" kind of implies you haven't learned it 🙂
😆 This!
Yeah. Got blinded my price movement.
I'm looking at -8 if he is out. Feeling bit stupid again.*Chuckle*
Bandwagon was so intense. Will have to wait and see tho.
I hate myself this week too, needlessly breaking my own plans of never early transfers before int break 🙁
For all years for Scotland to miss a major finals ,this is the hardest to take.every man and his dog has qualified.so disappointed
Yeah when you see northern Ireland topping a group you know it hasn't been that hard.
If Aguero is out more than 2 weeks I will probably bring Bony in.
Bony has looked very average since joining City. Lack of gametime has affected him I think. I'll steer well clear
Iheanacho could be a threat, or even a false 9 scenario.
Silva to suddenly become the top midfield pick again!
Weeeeee 🙂
Sterling up top could be interesting - getting loads of chances, missing nearly all of them
Going to pump his "underlying stats" through the roof 🙂
Only one word answer required.
Yes or No?
If you owned Zouma alongside a D of Dawson, Gomez, Richards and Kolarov, would you swap him out for a STH defender this week?
Yes or No? (best of 13)
Current score: No 2 Yes 0
Yes Jafallahad
Yep
N
Nos 2 Yeses 2
😕Yes
Nos 3 Yeses 3
No
Nos 4 Yeses 3 (6 to go)
Yes (though I wouldn't for a hit if you need to use a FT on Aguero).
Nos 4 Yeses 4
Who is going to win this? 😕
Basically this
That's another yes: Nos 4 Yeses 6 (3 to go)
Yes
Yeses take the lead: Nos 4 Yeses 5
Yes.
Nos 4 Yeses 7 (what a comeback - losing team will have a forfeit activity to complete).
Two to go.
Yes
Yes
No. If he plays, he should get a few points.
No. The other Serbians in Chelsea XI had played bad, and are out injured. +++, but no
Wow this site will be busy today
Will Costa start Next GW? Might just get him for Aguero
Neither Remy/Falcao offered much so I expect him to come straight back in. Jose is fighting for his job so he will start with his best team. Good fixtures also - he's my likeliest move at the moment.
yeah that's what I was thinking..he needs Costa up top..
Quite a few Sterling sellers could get burned if he now gets the nod up top.....
😆 True
Bony will play up top, he has this season when Aggy was out.
He can't finish though. They'd more likely get burned by the false hope of keeping him and then watching him scuff shots straight at the keeper.
agueros dead and gone
I hate International Breaks, why all injury prone players play in these meaningless friendlies. Just want to survive Last Man Standing.
Who was playing a meaningless friendly?
no one has been playing a meaningless friendly apart from perhaps France
What's everyone's plans with Aguero? Anything less than a few weeks out and I think I'll keep. It's too difficult to get him back in unless you keep the money in the bank. I can't do that in real life, never mind with fantasy money!
Long term injury and I'm looking at maybe Pelle and sorting out my defence.benching next GW.. and if the injury is serious will ship him out and go with 3-5-2 with sanchez,hazard,mane,KDB,payet or mahrez combo with vardy and pelle at top
I could actually do Aguero and Westwood to Pelle and Mané, have a decent front right and give myself the option of a 3-5-2 or a 3-4-3. Selection headaches though.
He's only gone up 0.3. It's not like the old days where you'd have to wait a month before he's back at your selling price. He'll more than likely be back there in one GW.
This, I'm not even benching him, if he won't be able to play it's okay, if he will, that's even better. Calm down people.
Pasqualinho is saying his price will be back at selling price after one GW, not Aguero himself.
Not just talking about the profit though. If I sell Aguero for Pelle I'm not going to keep five million in the bank for any length of time. So, in a few weeks I'd be taking hits to bring him back in.
Well, I suppose if it is less than a few weeks (as you say) then you're quite correct. I fear, however, that it will be more.
I'm guessing you're right. No rush to do anything though. I'll wait for news.
Would you rather have the 13 million sitting on the bench than 5 million in the bank? I dont get this.
3-5-2 set up with Aguero on the bench if he's only out for 2/3weeks. So many good midfielders vying for our team, and need to make defence changes, why waste 2 transfers getting Aguero out then in again in a few weeks.
how long do we think Aguero is out for? If it's a stretcher job then at least 1 month?
I reckon one week. Was so minor.
no one knows, so everyone will just be guessing
Thought so. From the posts on here, it sounds like a serious injury
reports of him crying in the dressing room although that may be just because hes realised they not playing Newcastle next week
Or maybe he just spent points bringing himself in and has used his WC already.
Watched the video of his injury doesn't look that bad.

THANKS
Well.. Looks like I will be taking another hit
same Fissh
Kane or Sturridge for me
You guys are weird, just wait for some more accurate news...
I will. I can afford a drop too. So no rush, but I know he will be out for a while
He got dragged off on a stretcher and is injury prone as H*ll not sure I needs much more news
Aguero 😯 🙁 what are peeps doing?
Waiting for real news.
no need to panic, got ya
He's getting a transfer to Madrid? 😯
*Liverpool
Whoosh
nothing until I hear any news
Blackadder thought the 20 minute club was the flying time for the ww1 pilot, turns out its the kun point window
Safe to say Aguero is going to be out for weeks??
Not at all. Could easily be back next game.
Probably. But no reason not to wait until its official.
So log on to FFS to learn of the Aguero news. Strangely last night I was thinking Pelle, Martial & Lukaku front line would be quite 'tasty' in fantasy terms & £2m cheaper than my current attack of Aguero, Martial & Ighalo.
Might just get to find out now.
Ideal front 3?
Costa Martial Bony
Covers United City and Chelsea.
Bit hard to day really. Defintely wouldn't have Bony. I'm condiering Costa, and I reckon Vardy should be in there. Pelle v Martial is tough
Costa and ideal doesn't mix
On a brighter note at least Sanchez has had his flag removed
Good news there. I've been suffering a succession of gameweeks with double injuries so could do without another one. Especially with Saylor/Gomez still to deal with.
I love international break. As it stands i have three players showing yellow, two on amber and one red. Used my wc, lost value on Pedro and Toure. Only positive not made my transfers 😉
This kun news is ruining Klopp day for me.
Your happiness is a zero sum game.Sorry 😛
Aguero being out will separate the men from the boys!
Boys will panic and whine, Men will savour the challenge and prosper!
Will wait a day or two, until it is clearer, but plannning on Kun >Pelle. Other fw are Vardy and Ighalo.
1. Better options out there?
2. With money available thinking of Ayew > Walcott. Worth a - 4?Don't take a hit on removing Ayew.
Ladies and gentlemen. I return from a trip to the future in my marvellous patented time machine. I spent this endeavour not researching the wonders of the creation of life on Earth, nor visiting Palestine to witness the crucifixion, nor even to get a sports almanac to make me untold gambling wealth. No, I went on more noble mission: to calm the panic in the souls of FFS readers. Thus I travelled into the future, and asked an ageing Sergio Aguero about the hamstring injury he suffered in 2015. He was a little bemused: surely if I had travelled so far and so long, I would want to know something of real import. Something that could save the lives of millions of innocents. I said: "Kun, if I may call you that, in my own small way I feel I am doing something important". He then said that he made a brief appearance against Bournemouth from the bench, picking up an assist, and then 90 mins in the next match (he couldn't remember the opposition), where he scored a brace.
Can we please stop talking about whether he'll be OK now?
love this!
you are assuming he wasnt riddled with Alzhaimers
we will never know
Did he remember who got the BAPS?
He said Gianluca Zambrotta. Not sure what he meant.
This.
he scored a brace against sevilla in the champions league? 😛
We didn't talk about European football. Repeated failures led to Pellegrini slowly losing his mind, and ending up wandering the streets of Manchester smoking roll-ups and drinking cans of K cider whilst mumbling about pigeons. It was all too painful for Aguero to talk about.
did he say by how many points KDB would beast Silva by?
8 years, 6 months agoWHO WILL YOU CAPTAIN NOW??????????????
