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.

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

    For goodness sake, unless it is a long-term injury, who in their right mind would transfer out someone they will want to bring back one or two weeks later? That's what your bench is for!

    1. ViperStripes
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      But which player are you talking about....

    2. Respect My Authoritah

      Hamstring injuries are rarely "one or two weeks". A strain will see possibly no action until after the next break (gw 12) or a tear, as reported may see him out for longer

      1. Rhinos
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        you obviously dont have Victor Wanyama on your bench

        1. Respect My Authoritah
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Albrighton 🙂

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

          Yeah, my plan was to bench a guy who has scored in 5 goals in 8 games. 3-5-2

      2. Billy Gilmore

        Costa says hi

        1. Respect My Authoritah
          • 11 Years

          Mourinho says bye

        It depends on what grade tear it is?

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

      The sort of weak leaving money on the bench argument.
      But when you can have ANY other striker for the Kun cash - a correct pick will more than make up for the -4

    4. FPLord
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      If it's a tear he won't be back prior GW 13, so as soon as it's confirmed it's time to say goodbye for now

    5. Top 210 Club

      looks like months

  2. Bubz

    Already on -8 😎

    1. drokkeh
      • 11 Years

      -4 here

      Yaya -> KDB

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Pedro, Shaw, Martial ---> KDB, Pelle, Bellerin here.

  3. Marknlard

    Has anyone decided what they're doing with Aguero?

    How about now, has anyone decided?

    How about now?

    1. BobB
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Keep, until I see his death certficate

    2. meerlight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I'm running around looking for my head, ask me later.

    3. drokkeh
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Keep, And captain Sanchez or KDB if he's deffo out.

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

      keeping because you need major surgery to get him back in, plus I'm on 3-5-2 so Ighalo is a decent backup for sure

    Diego Costa admits he reported back for Chelsea duty overweight this summer: http://www.getwestlondon.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/chelsea-striker-diego-costa-admits-10226832 … #CFC

      the first chelsea player to back Jose this season

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

      I guess Jose just forgot to tell him "please work out". It's OK, everyone can make mistakes

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

      professional footballers who get paid lots and lots of money to do just that should be fined for coming back overweight. My friend is a coach at under21s for Cardiff and they get fined for doing so, why not him. Really grinds my gears

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

        I guess half his paid is for being an as shole. He just forgot it's supposed to be towards the other teams.

  5. Heels_Over_Head
    • 12 Years

    Did Jonty put the Jonty hex on.Aguero yesterday by suggesting surely he should be in every team now?

    See his hot.topic from yesterday

  6. BobB
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Obviously every one is different, but hammies are usually about 3 weeks - so 2 PM gameweeks.

    Just sold Aguero for Dzeko

      Ha

      aguero > balotelli?

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

        Balotelli to Aguero

    Argentina boss Gerardo Martino said later: "He had been carrying a knock with his club, during the week we took good care of him. He was moving around the pitch well, but unfortunately he felt some discomfort and we are going to lose him.

    "I haven't spoken to the doctor but I can confirm the injury is not the same as the one he had been carrying with his club."

    Kun, who hit the form of his life with five goals against Newcastle last weekend, is likely to have a scan in the next few days and mcfc.co.uk will bring you updates as and when they are released, though it seems safe to assume the Blues' No.10 could miss a number of key games as he recovers from his injury.

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years

      Giggity

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Shame Aguero is made of glass. He could be a Premier League legend if he didnt get injured every 5 minutes

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

      Out for 2-3 weeks most certainly, enough to get rid

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

      'though it seems safe to assume the Blues' No.10 could miss a number of key games as he recovers from his injury.' - just no. That is just baseless speculation. The only relevant part of that final paragraph is the bit where it says he will have a scan.

      1. Respect My Authoritah
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        'likely to have a scan'

        Is that baseless speculation too?

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

          possibly, but slightly less baseless 😉

          1. Respect My Authoritah
            • 11 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            🙂

            In general, I agree with your point, and wouldn't be surprised to see the same man say the same thing heaps of other times. But this is Kun we're talking about, it was written this would happen as soon as he grabbed that 5th

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

        I haven't written this btw

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

          I know

  9. Bobby_Baggio
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    If aguero is out 4 weeks or more what are your thoughts on Sturridge? I know fixtures aren't great but you know new manager and all

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Good punt. Prefer Costa

    2. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Need to see how Klopp lines up first

      Benteke or Ings could be better options

    3. drokkeh
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Not for me. Another one who is injury prone. If Kun is out a couple of weeks, i'm going Lukaku.

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Good shout but i always get burned by lukaku so i am staying well clear

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

      if he's out, there is no question - I will absolutely be getting Costa

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Good too just chelsea have no passion and unity at the moment so i see them continuing to struggle

    5. GAMBIT
      • 10 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I'm thinking of Sturridge for the simple reason that he's the easiest to transfer out for Aguero

    6. AMP
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      is anyone considering Bony as replacement of Kun????

  10. Heels_Over_Head
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    If KDB plays at striker instead of Bony, will you be surprised?

    1. Respect My Authoritah
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Yes, though more because I'd expect Sterling there first

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      Very

    3. Top 210 Club
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      yes

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

    This is why I almost never do early transfers. Aguero>Costa most likely for me and might even captain.

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

      Do NOT get Costa!

      1. Bubz
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        Why not?

        1. Taffer
          • 12 Years
          10 years, 2 months ago

          Poor form, YC magnet, never gets baps and plays for a club out of sorts.

          Oh, and he costs 10.5

            • 13 Years
            10 years, 2 months ago

            I'd rather punt on Sturridge tbh

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

        yeah why not?

        1. ☆Khaz

  15. GAMBIT
    • 10 Years

    Thinking of doing Aguero > Studge and keeping the money itb to do Studge > Aguero...

  16. Make United Great Again
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    He's scores 5 then gets injured.

    If a week could sum up Kun Aguero this is it

  17. internal error

    I'm going to be able to bring in Mane/Walcott if Kun is out. yeeeeesss

    Anyone else thinking of going 361 if Aguero is out?

    1. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      4 4 2

      Who is 6?

    2. Rhinos
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      the only way to do that is get Rooney 🙂

    3. Heels_Over_Head
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      By the way, Milanista drafted Bony before he knew about Aguero injury

      LOL

    4. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      I think of going 3-6-1 every week, but FPL refuses it.

  21. Heels_Over_Head

    Where is Somalion?

  22. Rhinos
    • 12 Years

    The maverick in me is already thinking of buying Sterling (c)

  23. drughi

    10 years, 2 months ago

    Did doosra take a -8 to bring in aguero?

    1. Taffer
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      almost definitely

    2. Camp No No
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      He very likely wasn't the only one.

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

        true

    3. DGW Sane TC Fail....
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      i think so

  24. Bobby_Baggio
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Wow how decent can your team look without aguero in it?

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

      Very nice!

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

      Silly to spend all the money though...

      1. Bobby_Baggio
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        I know it definitely crazy as you wont be able to get him back but team does look amazing!

      2. Camp No No
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 2 months ago

        When he's back, it's the wildcard time anyway, so I wouldn't worry about that.

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

      I'm left with 3.1m in the back if I do Aguero > Sturridge

  25. GAMBIT
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    If Aguero only misses 1 week then there's no point in selling. The fear is that he may do to to us what Silva did to us...

    1. Bobby_Baggio
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 2 months ago

      He has a hamstring injury even if its low level hamstring injury, with his history he'll need 4 weeks minimum but hey i'm no doctor so who knows

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

      Knowing agueros history with hamstring he will miss a couple opf weeks and it's not like he is going to jump right in and score 2-3 goals. 13 mil on the bench for 2-3 weeks no thanks

  26. JogaSemmedo
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Used my FT to do Hazard to De Bruyne. Not sure how to feel about it. Good move surely in light of the news as ive got City attacking coverage at least for Bournemouth?

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

      Yep, good move

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

    According to @DanEdwardsGoal Sergio Aguero has TORN his hamstring while playing for Argentina last night. Uh, oh...

  28. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 2 months ago

    Aguero was probably on for a 2 pointer against Bournemouth 🙂

  29. Mavric Marco

    Morning guys,

    Nobody talking about Costa as a potential Kun replacement...?

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

      Don't like him at all. Dont rate him + card/ban magnet + chelsea poor form.

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

      Yep there's quite a lot of talk on here about Costa but i'm not keen - would rather punt on Sturridge
