After assessing the Defenders and Midfielders’ form over the last four Gameweeks, our next members’ article now casts an eye over the frontmen. With Sergio Aguero owners likely to need a new replacement as a result of his hamstring injury, we delve into the data to highlight a number of in-form protagonists.
Seeing as it's Aguero we replacing I'm struggling to care bout the odd price rise. This a good week to wait till Friday I think
If it is him I decide on I am doing it tomorrow night. You could yet get 2 price rises this week. You will want all you can get later on in the season.
Isn't that how the problem started?
What problem? Pelle will be safe after his match tomorrow so why wouldn't you?
Can still get injured. Or his sidechick might give birth.
Sidechick? I like that phrase
Chelsea v Aston Villa score predictions?
4-1
6-0
3-2
2-1
22-20
This is no Rugby
3-0 Chelsea. Hazard (2) Costa
This
I will take that
3-0 for me. Hazard to get amongst the points
How reliable is the fplstatistics site?
Is there any chance at all of Pelle rising tonight? They have him at 94% currently. I was hoping to wait until after the Italy game tomorrow night.I think it's the best out of the lot.
Reliable enough. You wouldn't want to transfer him in tonight when he is playing tomorrow would you?
And why do so many idiots rush into making transfers before the international games anyway? It makes no logical sense.
It just makes it harder for the sane
Actually, if he gets injured in the international, then it makes it easier for the sane.
The clue is in the question.
For me it depends on the situation. If it's to transfer out Aguero this week, there is not reason to rush. He is the most expensive player in the game and you will certainly carry some in the kitty. If it's to make a double switch with many players rising and falling some weeks I will take the risk.
This exactly. So many early hits even before the internationals.
It's pretty good.
Seems to be well regarded on here
Kun out for a month, right?
So he says.
Wait from presser to be 100% but yes.
Ta lads.
Someone have better invent a hoverboard soon or else Steven Spielberg is gonna look like an idiot.
Oh you mean one that actually hovers, unlike the hoverboards that are around now which have wheels
I remember around 10 years ago electric scooters had a similar hype
Like a hovercraft?
Yes. One that floats above the ground without wheels. Too late for flying cars and it'll take ages to switch all the doors to handle-free.
Well no coz he can use the DeLorean to go forward to the time when they are invented and bring it back here
Not if the Libyans get there first.
Aguero price change Tonight ?
no
Safe for now
what a genuine Needlevor sighting
I'm always here, friend.
However if you remember several months back I boycotted the forum until they agreed to expand the site properly and include a members forum.
I got sick of every other post being a one-word reply. Who remembers the good old days when we had genuine discussions!?me 😉
This
Are you the reptile guy?
If you're not sure, ask your ma.
What a rude person. I no longer wish to waste my time with you
That's a shame, I was really hoping for a life long friendship.
@EpicFail
My ideal 7 at the moment would be:
Sanchez Hazard De Bruyne Mane Payet
Pelle VardyI like all but Hazard.
Form: 10, 5, 5
Good fixtures. On pens. Historically good. What's not to like?Pens are -2 for him these days.
Could be Walcott.
Fair point. I'm just wary about Walcott because he burned me earlier this year. I was a fan 🙁
Those points were jam, jammier and jammiest.
Needs some Lukaku
Would you do a -4 for any of these transfers? Already using 1 FT on Aguero.
Only have Francis, Cedric, Kolarov available in defense and worried about not having KDB
A) Kosc -> Bellerin
B) Ayew -> KDB
C) Both for -8
D) None of the above.E) go to bed
I'd never do it for a defender unless I didn't have enough fit.
BWait for news though.
Why would you recommend cutting Ayew for a hit just before a very good fixture? Very odd advice.
Because KDB is a better choice.
This
In the long run yes but not for a 4 point hit, that's just nonsense.
I can confirm it isn't nonsense.
Same old FFS forummers... addicted to point hits whether they're necessary or not,.
0 hits for me this season so far.
Hold on, I'll write you a certificate of achievement.
Where's my certificate?
😀
I'm one on and it was enforced hit to get Kun 1 week earlier than planned (and because I made a transfer GW2 when I hadn't planned to initally)
This week will be my 2nd hit, no one to blame but myself for this one. Made an early transfer in an international break like a noobJust out of curiosity, why didn't you just wait? Pure impatience? Or did you just panic?
Thought I was being clever going early to beat the price drop on player out and rise on player in
Jokes on me now
Wait for pressers/injury updates
B is tempting but Swansea play significantly better at home.
I'd do Koscielny>Bellerin if it saves you TV. Otherwise you can wait a week.
So overall, D.De Bruyne.
In a draft league, who would you rather pick?
A) Dyer
B) Lennon
C) Jurado
D) Adäm
E) AntonioDo any of them even get mins? If so then the one who plays most
Jurado the most nailed probably.
Cheers,Hahaha have to say, the quality of advice on here just gets better and better!
That wasn't in response to Casuals, not you Zasa! Calm down.
D
Cheers Epic
Jurado for sure
C
Cheers everybody 🙂
right lads, time for me to finish the Fergie doc
stay safe out there later GrazianoYou writing a biopic on Black-Eyed Peas?
🙂 nice
😛
well, we've had Fegie
we've got WILL.I.AN
Another Aguero & Silva dilemma here, although I've been desperately trying to sort out the defence for a while.
Begovic, McCarthy
Sagna, Martin, Richards, J Gomez, Targett
Silva, Sanchez, Payet, Mahrez, Hoolahan
Aguero, Pelle, Mitrovic
To get through this week, should I:
a) Replace Silva & Aguero and play 2-5-3
b) Take one of them out and urgently replace Joe Gomez?B and get rid of Aguero.
Sorry,you have 2 FT?
Does anyone else completely forget what they were going to post just as they start typing?
It's happened before.
Any Kolarov updates?
Facer posted a nice update earlier which said he has a very good chance of playing Saturday, shame the mods haven't made it a hot topic.
Awesome. I'll go hunting for it.
CheersMy man
cheers Parm!
(and Facer!)
He starts be saying that he has every chance of being fit, but ends by saying that it doesn't look good for him since he may be rested anyway.
I think the only games to worry about FPL wise now are tomorrow :
19.45 : Belgium v Israel, Italy v Norway, Holland v Czech Rep
20.30 : Algeria v Senegal ( Not sure if Mane is eligible )
02.00 : Brazil v Venezuela
03.15 : Peru v Chile
* All times GMT and all qualifiers except Algeria v Senegal (friendly )cheers jay
Right then. Just for this week,
A) Bony -4
B) MahrezB
Just play Mahrez
I prefer Mahrez personally, Bony will take a bit of time to settle into this City attack with will be a lot less potent without Kun or Silva. Can't see an immediate impact.
Thanks all.
bbbbbb
Go to 34 mins : Interview w/Rodgers in 2013 Re Bob&Shanks "I don't care about those 2" https://t.co/KYxVcUDRrE
ShockingSo you're taking that guys word for it?
Yes. Well respected podcast too.
Seems a bit outlandish. Anyway its all water under the Brodge now, Kloppo is in 🙂
Brendan was well out of his depth and got away with a lot because he wasn't foreign, IMO. I wish Klopp the best, a great man managing a great club.
Starting back 3 : Kola creswell darmian.
Don't see any points there.
already on a hit ( -4) and 3 wasted positions-steven taylor, targetttt. westwood.
Should I further bruise my team with another hit to strengthen the back 3?Who to replace Kun with?
x) Pelle
y) Costa - Big gamble
z) Lukaku
already have vardy and ighaloCosta big gamble?
He was (C)osta last year.Emphasize last year.
with how chelsea are playing this year and he is card prone for a hit i think he is gamble
High risk for a low potential reward.
He had a few hauls tbf . He had two early in the season and he has one around the new year so I would not rule out a haul but I think I will wait for signs of improvement
Sturridge
If Liverpool were better and had better fixtures I would agree with this but it's an awful lot to ask of Klopp . I am going to give him time to get settled
I like the math terms, x
Studge/Bony/Pellè
Don't bring the other two.Pelle.
Sorry for the repost.
Need halp 🙁

Should I further bruise my team with another hit to strengthen the back 3?If they play, they're not worth the hit.
I have that feeling, Murray will be in quite a few teams in the next few weeks.
Was his goal nice last week?
I have no idea 🙂
Why do we not even see the goals 🙁
Stats good, fixtures, not good.
Tbf they're not horrible. Comme ci comme ca 🙂
form over fixtures always and forever.
Howard
Bellerin Dawson Sagna Azpi
Payet Mahrez Ayew Caz
Bera Bony
Gomes Puncheon Sakho Sakho
Thoughts Guys ?Wait,
you're benching Sakho?How come?
Sakho + Payet too much Whu to face Palace at home
Palace are better away from what I recall + they keep a clean sheet once in a blue moon. I would bench one of your defenders or Mahrez.
2 CS in the last two , i don't think a team who can't beat Sunderland now will score plenty vs Palace .
Which team of CFC MCFC & WBA u think will concede ?Sagna might not play.
you mean Palace, the team with the 3rd most chances conceded in the Premier League?
Bench Sagna.
Chelsea will concede at least 1, bench azpi
looking at doing Aguero > Pelle with my FT but ideally would like to wait until after the rest of internationals are done tomorrow. will Pelle rise tonight? looks close
Tomorrow according to fantasy football fix
94.2 at the min .
I think I would take the risk and hope there is no price rise.
The worst that can happen, is a 0.1 loss.
But you could be saving yourself from a waisted free transfer if an injury occurs.Hold
Liverpool spent around £292m since appointing Brendan Rodgers in June 2012, recouping around £175m.
If you look at Klopp's spending he might be the best thing for the club.IMO he'll need CL to recruit anyone that most Liverpool fans will be happy to see..they might not be patient with potential youth on the cheap.
That being said, Liverpool have a bigger budget so provided the transfer committee (worst idea ever) doesn't get in his way he should be able to stretch the pound even more.
Is Lukaku worth a shot to replace Aguero? Most ppl seem keen on Pelle or Costa, who I dont have either, but have a hunch Lukaku could fire. What do you guys reckon?
I'm bringing in Lukaku but I already own Pelle though.
I am thinking of bringing in Kane for Kun next gw and Lukaku for Gomis the week after
@ Slamdog. I think you need to take another hit.
Just brought Wanyama for Alexis 😎
Triple C active.Check mate to you!
In all seriousness,
I think I'm going to stay at -4. Bony is so tempting…
I think it's pretty obvious how I'm going to line up. Just going to keep my captain choice quiet 😉I thought you were captaining Sanchez?
Maybe… maybe not 🙂
I see you didn't take my advice of a -32 😐Not yet.
😆
I keep refreshing your team, waiting to see the 9 transfers made this GW… I'm counting on that 😉If you keep an eye out it may just happen. Keep those eyes peeled. I don't think anyone has ever taken my team this seriously before. The benefit of a few lucky weeks I guess.
I still haven't decided who I will replace Aguero with really I keep swinging between the various options. I don't blame you for shelving it.
Yep, rather than hoping I make the right pick, I'm going to do a bit of observing this GW.
Particularly with,
Lukaku, Sturridge et Kane.I you aren't doing it this week. Lukaku would be favourite for me. You are then just 1 week away from their good fixtures.
I know. He is leading atm. The only reason I'm holding off just to watch him a bit closer vs MUN is that I've got Barkley. And he looked exceptional for England.
You're screwwwwwed Cheeseoid 😉 My team's sick.Sick as in measles?
Eriksen (LIV) or Payet (cpl)?
Payet
To bench?
One week punt?
Captain?On a wildcard. I can afford either. I currently own Payet but Eriksen has nice fixtures. The reason I ask the question is I can do a FT next week but if i'd rather not use one.
Maybe go with Eriksen then. Better fixtures than Payet imo.
If on a WC, I would look more longterm personally.
Eriksen: LIV, bou, AVL, ars, WHM, CHE
Payet: cpl, CHE, wat, EVE, tot, WHM
I think Tottenham have slightly better fixtures over the next 6. and I like how Eriksen looked last week!
If you want to go with the crowd, go Payet.
If you are feeling punty, go Eriksen.Thanks BFB & SM. I was leaning towards Eriksen but wanted to check it wasn't an emotional choice as i'm a Spurs fan.
I would be playing both. Form on both of them are great now!
Eriksen not going to score free kicks every week.
that's harsh, he is more than that when in form
How am I shaping up with Kola in mind...
Mignolet
Kolarov. Dawson. Souare
Wijnaldum. Sanchez(v) Hazard. KDB (c) Payet
Pelle. Vardy
McCarthy. Gabriel Richards. WilsonFine. Gabriel should start and has a good shot at a CS against Watford.
Kola looks to be fit for Saturday, but the inevitable could happen, and he could be rotated.
Team looks good, if you're confident with Wijnaldum.He is a flair pick and I fancy Newcastle this week
fair enough!
Did you take a hit this week?I like the Wijnaldum pick. Considering Ayoze for next week myself. Wanted to do it this week but then Aguero died.
Newcastle missing enough defensive players that they just have to go gung-ho in attack
man Costa looks REALLY tempting as that completely left-field punt..but Pelle fixtures and form just so-so good!
Aye, I'm trying to find Chelsea players to fit in. I think they will turn their season round very soon and the fixtures look a good time to do it.
Anyone after a punt? Arnautovic is cheap, shot happy and in scoring form.
Scored again for Austria today
8 years, 6 months ago
So Pelle doesn't look like rising until tomorrow night. That is a good result if it happens.
