Our first members article of the weeks delves into the Gameweek 23 data this evening. Tottenham’s in-form midfielders catch the eye, whilst he also assess the recent displays of City and Liverpool’s weekend goal heroes before analysing the recent decline of Arsenal’s playmaker and Everton’s lone frontman.
Does she have a nickname yet? Because I've just thought of a beauty. Konta the Cun&a. Catchy eh?
🙄
King Konta - first thing that pops into my head.
(King Kunta being the original title to a song)
A very comfortable win too.
Much harder semi final.
Welcome to Radio Cheeseoid.
Home to music suggested and inspired by posters on Fantasy Football Scout but without any real link to football itself
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQFwRWdXdv4TYS_G6lSoFCfVrvL2166vB
Accept no imitations!
Please suggest more top tunes to share amongst us and spread the love of fantasy football unrelated tunesDid you add my suggestion to it?
Yup I think so.
Boooooom, first sub.
White Iverson stands out from that list but a lot look really good, I'll have a listen to some before I go to bed 🙂I tried to make it diverse as we are all different. Could have easily just filled one with my musical taste
Good on you Cheese.
Always nice to open your mind to different options. Explore a little, as they say.
That's quite the diverse playlist there but clearly needs more metal!
Suggest a track then!
Fair call.....being that you ar being inspired by gravs, can't go past this.....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxnN05vOuSMGreat call. Love Maiden
Cheers.....one of the all time greats, no question
can you add this to your profile bio please?
Done!
🙂 thanks Cheese, i'll get round to a suggestion too at some point
Well I know you like the Arctic Monkeys. I think you will find a couple of tracks on there.
🙂 I do and its generally a list I quite like, I just haven't put my personal touch on it yet
I see a couple of my suggestions in there. Generally the juvenille, uncultured ones it seems.
Star Trekkin is uncultured?
😀 To the masses maybe, but it's actually a misunderstood work of cultural genius that undercuts notions of human progress as told through the medium of science fiction.
There's a colour video still in Radio Cheeseoid that reminds me of a grimey black and white album cover from the mid-90s. I think the indie band behind it was called Electro(something?) or Electric(something?). Ring any bells?
Elastica?
Electric 6?
Nope and nope.
Nope.
Electronica?
Hmmm. That's a good possibility. Thanks! The problem with searching the internet for Electronica and band/album etc is you get all sorts of other stuff come up in the searches than the obscure band you're hunting for.
They were a supergroup put together by Bernard Sumner and Johnny Marr and the single was "Getting away with it" if that helps narrow the search.
I believe that was Electronic. It wasn't Electronic.
But thanks for the suggestion.
At least the covers I've seen so far suggest it wasn't Electronic.
Electric Soft Parade?
Just had a flying lesson. Most amazing and wondrous experience. 🙂
I've not taken acid since I was a teenager, I wish I was young still.
Just book a couple of days off work
Age is no limitation imo
No it's not, just moved onto Ketamine, more moorish. 🙂
hahahaha, watch that K hole 😉
Must be great! Top stuff
I've my 10 minutes of providing pointless replies to you all. Back to work for another couple of hours. So if you have a question that you really really need someone to provide an annoying pointless answer, please wait.
We might be on a new page by then.Before you go... I've got something on my mind for a while now, I just need to let it out.
What are the chances we'll know of a DGW by deadline? 😉About the same as me waking up to Mariah Carey next time I'm asleep. In percentages that's about 43%
I posted this earlier, but I think it merits a repost for the deadzone: http://youtu.be/TxWN8AhNER0
So what is it? 🙂
I'm not sure. I've not seen one before, no one has, but I'm guessing it's a white hole.
So what is it?...
... Only joking 😆So when's the double gameweek?
I heard there is a 43% chance we will find out in the next 7 days
There is a 5.2% chance Balders head will explode too. Hopefully Oghash's prediction doesn't come to pass.
🙂 betcha $50 it doesnt happen.
5.2% isn't great odd, so I'll decline. Look! There's Agüero!
That video stops a couple of seconds too soon. This is what happened next: http://www.jeffbots.com/fembot4.jpg
😆 now thats a film Ive not seen in ages!!
Oh behave.
🙁 my DVD got caught on loop http://i.imgur.com/EAZCqF8.gif
😆
Only joking. 😀
slim chances, just to be in the safe side, keep the extra FT for gw25? or are there any urgency move u planning to take
Why did the chicken cross the road?
Sorry. Lame. Was bored at work.
To get to the other side.
Was expecting a more creative answer
If the answer was something creative, like "to paint a picture", then surely the chicken would be carrying an easel, a canvas and some paints. But those details were missing from your scenario.
This was a joke by the way. 😀 Right, really going now.
coz the road is tempting
To try to get a hint at when the DGW is.
Tottenham had an away match this weekend ? 😮
It wanted to avoid the blank.
Morning guys
Morning Jape 🙂
How are we? 🙂
Nothing special other than the fact that we are in for a spectacular C1C final soon... including Liverpool 🙂
I'm hoping for a Merseyside Derby, but the consequences we face if Everton win...It would be great to have a Merseyside derby, but like you say we'd probably not live it down for a long time if they won.
Vise versa if you's won
The joy's of a derby haha
Morning
What's happening?
Hello.
It's dead on here this morning!
I think everyone is busy listening to Radio Cheeseoid. 🙂
With good reason!
Need to get on this Radio Cheeseoid
See the link at the top of the page
Tuned in
Good man!
That's why it's called the DeadZone (the clue is in the title)... And I love it! 😀
It's great
This Key passes stat. where do i find it when creating my own stats tables? is it key contributions?
chances created
Wooooohooooo!
Did you see my suggestion on the spreadsheet ref the presser?
Morning All from Dubai.
Anyone have any information on DGWS and blank weeks?
I don't what time is best to use my wildcard.
ThanksEverton and Pool have a blank GW27 is all we know atm.
If you could bring a defender from any one of these teams, who would it be?
A) West Bromwich Albion
B) Chelsea
C) Swansea
D) TottenhamWhich team would it be* Not who, which team.
Tottenham
I'm thinking B.
Spurs or WBA
Couple of different answers... interesting.
Chelsea. Ivanovic to be exact. 5.82 ppg since he's been back. One goal and three assists. Actually thinking about selling Alderweireld for him as a differential...too many people have Aldy and he isn't doing anything special
Luis Suarez Says He Would Only Come Back to England for Liverpool Oh and to see his dentist! 😆
eagerly waiting for Diva's tomorrow DGW article..
No pressure then! 😀
I could be on part 85 by the time Gameweek 37 comes around!
lol
After tonights match, we will know the DGW teams; By when should we expect update from FA regarding rescheduling of the GW 27 matches? Could it be within a day or 2??
I could be a day, it could be a week.
All they will say is the Pool vs Liv match is TBC
My monies on Er to win by a length
Usually they say the next day that's its "TBC" then leave us hanging for a bit longer.
Bit longer as in few days right?
anything from a couple of days to a couple of weeks
Ohh thanks for inputs guys...guess I will have to bring in Payet irrespective...Will Save FT for possibly Ozil + Alli--> Firmino + Hendo/Barkley DGW 25:)
If Everton go through tonight its going to be such an anti-climax
Yeah, perfect those not planning to WC, but sadly lacking in temptation for those that might otherwise be drawn into using it early.
I could end up doing Myhill -> Mignolet/Howard which isn't particularly appetising 😕
Whoop-de-whoop.
I would actually like it as it will help me get rid of KDB instead of Ozil for the DGW star Firmino
How do you solve a problem like Moreno?
Klopp may solve it soon.
Just saw his challenge on Naismith. Klopp should drop him for stupidity.
Out of position for Arnies offside goal too.
I haven't seen that yet.
Send Joe Gomez to the witches in the mountains for healing,
🙂
Teach Liverpool to defend corners
You added an unnecessary word at the end there.
😉
Ivanovic
That's an expensive solution!
worth it. 5.82 ppg in his last 11 games. 1 goal and 3 assists. I downgraded KDB to firmino and have the cash but holding till I get more news about DGW.
I'd find the cash because for 6.5 he's a bargain imoI'm still not thrilled by the Chelsea defence though.
They havent conceded away since Hiddink's appointment. Only a matter of time until they do tighten up at home. Although on paper it looks like they only have one easy game at home (NEW).
My thinking is that if Ivan can return with the state of their current defence then it will only improve.I'll look into Ivan. Thanks for the suggestion.
Wow! Lukaku and KDB survived. Didn't expect it, but I'm glad. Hopefully with the match tonight people will hold on to them...
*price drop
Lukaku now has a double/blank regardless of tonight's game.
Yeah, his blanks have hurt me too. But with a potential DGW it's madness to get rid of him. He also has Newcastle this weekend.
I meant he now has a blank in GW27. We don't know yet whether the double will be before or after the blank.
Oh right! Hehe sorry.
The joys of owning Mahrez(NOR) AND Ali(SWANS)....
😉I only have Mahrez. 🙁
Anyone not captaining Aguero? A few good alternatives in Alli, Payet, Kane & Lukaku.
Maybe some will out of those Paget seems good but no I will be going with kun.
Yep, he's definitely the safest option.
Dont think anyone with Aguero will not captain him anymore. Many burned by lukaku last week. If you have Aguero then stick the armband on him. He's still a differential with only 25% having him.
Yeah, as I said above he's the safest option.
Luka or Payet for me. Cant recall last time I had a captain playing in away game...
Do you have Aguero?
Yep
With pool dgw confirmed sometime later .Shold I transfer Arnie out ?
If yes then to who Firmino looks obvious choice but are there any others?Coutinho if he's back, but Firmino seems like the only option at the moment.
Yup and the OOP looks good too .
Hendo is good one too
I think firmino is the pick going forward even tho hendo might have pens in his locker . Any non pool options get on Silva ?
If Man City qualify tonight, is there any possibility of the Newcastle game going to GW25? I have heard of it around these parts.
If not, any estimates? I've been trying to scour the hot topics for it but can't. Need to do my transfers soon due to price drops.If Man City qualify, Newcastle will have a DGW but not sure if GW25 is certain. Hopefully we'll have some idea before deadline.
If City beat Villa then there's a chance.
I tried to list all the possible options here: https://fpldiva.wordpress.com/2016/01/25/double-gameweek-planning-part-two/ and in part one (link therein).
Obviously needs updating now we know the identity of one of the finalists (you can remove the Stoke options), but I thought I'd wait until tomorrow's games are out of the way to do that.Wow. Great work there. Bookmarked.
Isn't GW25 too soon though to have an impromptu game though? I mean I read somewhere that some EPL team had a game gone from Sunday to Saturday and fans were pissed. Don't remember what it wasI haven't found a rule that specifically prohibits it so I can't rule it out, but I don't think the fans would be happy. That said, a Merseyside derby should be easier to rearrange for fans than some longer distances fixtures.
"Still, no fingers should be pointed at Flanagan, who was far more secure than fellow full-back Albert Moreno.
And you suspect it will not be long before the local boy switches across to the left-back berth he occupied so magnificently during the near-miracle that was 2014.
As Reds boss Jurgen Klopp said, “We all love Flanno”.
Not sounding good for Moreno then...
Flanno anyone...4.4m...?Oh FFS! I'll just leave the liverpool defence for good when I ditch Alberto.
This!
This
Yeah, Moreno was my differential in my ML. What a disaster.
I can see myself sitting with him and he doesn't get 180 minutes over the DGW.
me too
TBF, I'm tempted to shift him, double or not. Only Walker, who is arguably a more pressing concern, may stop me.
Yeah, I was keen on binning Ward since CP have lost the plot...but you never know with Pardew. Fixtures still ok ish. DGW defenders are a lottery and a false sense of security anyway so Moreno's head on the block now..
we have a striker now, means Cabaye should be moving back to his cdm role. Much tighter at the back.
I'm tempted by Adebayor. Palace were clever enough to only give him a contract till the end of the season
I think he'll be a better ufpl option that fpl.
See how he does. We have the people to put it in his head, but he's taken a pay cut, only £77k a week. Might not motivate him enough to turn up and play.I think he's being paid by Spurs until the end of the season anyway and I wouldn't be surprised if City are still paying him the remainder of what they owed him as well. That all dries up at the end of the season so I think he has enough incentive 🙂
But yes, I will wait and see of course
Adebaywhore
Do it, be brave.
SO MUCH THIS.
9 points in 8 games! I never really wanted a Liverpool def (haven't had one for years) but was swayed with the stats, Klopp, differential etc.Moreno's KP's are right up there...
🙁
Last question before I'm off. Quick one too 🙂
Play 1:
A) Dann(BOU)
B) Rose(nor)Has to be Dann
A
Morning! Any news on junior stanislas injury?
He's out for 2 months .
confirmed? 😯
Nope but. Minimum 3 weeks is required for recovery then it depends on the tear type.
So was definitely a tear and not just a strain then?
Exactly I think it was a tear but FPL haven't red flagged but they are late sometimes . Really but even how's hasn't said a word . Don't think he will make it for next 2 fixtures.
Cheers
He would be red flagged if so, surely?
With Vertonghen being injured, Dier will more than likely play CB. Will that mean Alli will play DM now?
Possibly, but we also have Bentaleb who can play there as well. My guess is that Wimmer will come into CB and Dier will stay where he is
Fingers crossed
Dier stays DM, Wimmer is probably the CB.
Hopefully
Morning guys
Morning Poch, unlucky on Mirallas. Who's going to be your replacement?
I'm hoping he gets better because he is a DGW player otherwise I'll probably get rid for a DGW player. Inclined towards Henderson atm
Don't fancy Firmino?
Not really. Henderson seems a better bet for a DGW. More nailed-on and on pens
Morning Sir
How goes it?
Busy Busy Busy, just like a quick coke zero break and FFS fix before I get back to work., you?
All is good thanks. Cup games means I am not preoccupying my mind with any transfer concerns. I find myself being more productive 🙂
Morning. I see we're top doubles seeds now Poch! No pressure!
😎
Did we win the third set?I believe we did.
Nice. Straight sets!
Wait, technically straight sets should mean we only won 2-0
With Stanislas out for a few weeks I have the exact sum to do
Kane + Stanislas --> Aguero + Alli (-4)
should I do it? or wait for the DGW situation and get a DGW player instead of Alli?Full team?
Can you cover blanks in 27?Lloris // Hennessey
Evans // Baines // Moreno // Nyom // O'Shea
Silva // Firmino // Ozil // Payet // Stanislas
Kane // Ighalo // LukakuSo Luk, Moreno, Baines & Firnimo won't play GW 27?
yup! just realized that 😯
Kouyate? 😛
why not? 😉
I would wait because Alli could potentially be playing DM now due to Vertonghen injury with Dier playing CB.
good point, Thanks!
Wait till today's matches finish.
yeah better to wait, thanks!
Later dudes. Smoke me a kipper.
See You When I See You
Good night Boss
Shawcross and Walker to Daniels and Cresswell with 2FTs looks exciting...
Get PVA
Would like to but that defense is sh!t... :/
I know but he has been getting the goals..
Daniels is not consistent in my opinion
Yeaaah!
It seems we have a keeper for GW 27 then.
Best Defender for the possible DGW would be ?
1. Baines
2.Sagna/Otamendi
3.Sakho
4. JanmatSorry thats a comment fail !
Fill me in spud. What's gw27 (casual alert)
Do I know you? You popped in y/day...I commented...you ignored me...disappeared...
😕I never ignore you sexy lips. Show me done loving
😳
Livp reaching final means no Livp vs Eve in Gw 27. Good news for us "Butland only" owners. Had Stoke made I would have had no keeper GW 27.Aha I'm with ya. So it's dgw 25 I hear? For pool and Everton?
It's unclear as to when the missing fixture will be fitted in.
The Rez?
This one goes out to a very special potatopotato. You know who you are baby
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=h_BiaqSe0REx
Is the dgw 25 a sure thing or strong speculation? Or of could be set for another gw.…
Far from a sure thing. More like a small chance of happening.
When should we expect official confirmation? Wish to know whether to save for pool and an Eve player as I only have Barkley and Luks.
After the weekend at the earliest.
Morning All
Is it now confirmed that due to Liverpool winning yesterday- Liverpool Vs Everton will be rescheduled to a DGW as final is on 28th Feb?
Also- If man city do win tonight vs Everton then Man city Vs Newcastle also will be rescheduled to a DGW as they too will be in final on 28th Feb?
Any ideas when we should know the new dates of their games?Dates could be anywhere. GW27 blanks for all 4 would be the only certain date.
