Our first members article of the week takes a delve into the Gameweek 25 data this evening. We assess the improvement from Chelsea and Man United’s lone strikers, analyse the Swansea midfield battle for our attentions and look for reasons behind the downturn in output from West Ham and Watford’s talismen.
Fantasy European Super League in 2018 ?

wow, this is all so depressing.
Billie looks like a younger version of Pelle G.
*Bilic
Is Ward still a good fantasy pick?
Decent budget option, but would switch to Dann if you've got the funds.
Thanks
I could get any defender up to 4.7m anyway
No, not imo.
Who'd you get for 4.7m max Doos?
My actual defence is: Bellerin, Moreno, Cresswell, Simpson, Williams
I think Moreno has to goWollscheid, with GW30 in mind.
you've already got Palace covered with Hennessey.
Wollscheid? Or have you got Butland? Or a Watford defender?
I have Forster Hennessey.
I was thinking to get Borthwick-Jackson, I think he'll keep playing, he's very goodOK. Not for me. 🙂
For anyone who likes a weekly dose of sexy goals -

Cheers for that - a good watch
Going AOA this week, please pick 2 to start:
A - Alder
B - Bellerin
C - VVD
D - Simpson
E - WilliamsA C
AC
Thanks!
Anyone tempted to go triple Spurs and Leicester from GW27?
I'm already there, it's a no brainer
This.
Have triple Spurs already and have two Leicesters
I already am haha but Rose needs going and Schmeichel won't be my consistent goalkeeper
Leicester yes, but Spurs would be a triple blank in GW30, unless Palace beat then in the cup.
Exactly, plus the possibility of injuries from the two Europa games in between gw26 and 27. You really need to hold onto that FT this week.
Ah I see - thinking that triple of both would be great for GW27 though. I'm currently on Simpson and Mahrez from Leicester and Toby and Kane from Spurs, so will get Vardy and Alli in GW27
Who to bench?
Butland
Cresswell Toby Bellerin Williams
Mahrez Alli Payet Barkley Arnautovic
Lukaku Kun Kane
subs: Schmeicel ---- ----- SaylorWilliams and Arnie
Afobe (C) anyone?
Well, I've got him ... 😀
Then join me Doos,the way Stoke are defending,a possible hatty maybe 😛
No, that's nonsense, I'm afraid.
Who's your current (C)?
Haven't got one, yet.
Probably Payet.
Really?
Seemed a bit leggy last nightYes, really. I don't agree. 🙂
Suit yourself,still sticking with Afobe though I might change it last minute like always
3 consecutive 3-0s though Doosra.
Indeed. But they have been a bit unlucky.
bench Alli or Ighalo?
Alli if you have Kane
Ighalo. I think Alli could be in for a big score, his away record is great.
Alli probably
Iggy
This may be the first week in my FPL history I have no Idea what to do.
So tempted by Costa it cant be healthy. and evey other post on here is VVD, VVD...
VVD?
I don't know if its a good thing that I bought in VVD before seeing anything on here. All the bandwagons on here seem to fail haha
@doos , will Carroll start this week?
Depends how quickly Valencia recovers. Also, Sakho now training with the lads.
Ta
I am worried that Antonio will lose his spot, but he is in so good form.
I'm not. Not after the Guv'ner's comments last night. 🙂
Link? Or what was the comment?
Where did Antonio end up playing after the injuries to others?
Right DM.
Interesting. Sounds like he did ok though!
He looks a more than decent payer, as does your back up keeper.
player
Yup. Our team is building well.
Is Valencia injured, Doos? Got him in Fantrax
Had two knocks last night. Waiting on reports.
Cheers. How's everything going health wise?
Cant make my mind up this week!
My defence is Bellerin - Sagna- Walker - Moreno - Richards
A, Play 2 defenders with my AOA chip with Stanislas as my 5th mid
or
B, Play 3 defenders and bench StanislasI'd play Bellerin, Moreno & Richards. I think Moreno is still worth playing this week if you haven't sold him yet.
Cheers for the reply buddy
Tempted to captain a defender this week
Daniels(STK) - Stoke has blanked the last 4 games, defence has been terrible as well
Cresswell(nor) - Right up there for crosses and Norwich has blanked 3 of the last 4 and defence is terribleMoreno(c) maybe? You will get 2 points instead of 1...
Sold for Huth. Glad thats been dealt with
Seriously , yeah this is the week if ever you will want to captain a defender....worth a punt but I am not willing
I just don't fancy any of the contenders in my team, Aguero, Kane, Lukaku
Just notices Carroll could be back for West Ham too. Bodes well for Cresswells crossing stats
Ivanovic is also someone it think about captaining.
Would need to buy him in so probably not an option for me.
Norwich usually score at home.
I'd only consider the armband on Ivanovic or Azpi this weekend. Still think there's better options in midfield and up front anyway 🙂Cheers for the insight. I'll reconsider
So whats the go with GW30 ??
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2016/02/05/blank-and-double-gameweek-planning/
Not sure what the Liverpool result does to the likelihood of their GW30 blank prospects.Liverpool will still blank if City don't beat Chelsea in the cup.
Ok. And West Ham will have a blank along with Watford?
Providing they don't both get knocked out in round 5.
I see, so the game they just played was a reply for round 4?
Yes
A rearranged Merseyside derby is also a possibility in GW30, if Bournemouth knockout Everton in round 5.
If you've got 2FT's i'd bring in a Stoke, Southampton or Leicester player this week, with GW30 in mind. Then re-access GW30 after the R5 cup ties have been played.
Thanks everyone. I currently have butland so i should keep him. Reid in doubt and taargett sitting on bench injured. Should I do Targett > Cedric or Azpilicueta
If you have 2 FT go Soton defender, you will need him for GW 30, if you have only 1, just hold fire untill 21 february after FA Cup games.
Agreed
but don't sell Targett now, he may be back in short time. Although he is not nailed on I wouldn't sell him just yet.
Best replacement for Zouma?
A Azpi - strong CS chance until GW30 versus NEW sot nor STO , then potentially a blank
B VVD/Cedric - swa CHE bou SUN sto until GW 30
can someone help me plz,im quite new here so what to do whit this and how this team looks??
migs(loris)
daniels,morono,nacho,(targett,janmaat) morono needs to go,this is his last chance
lingard,alli,mahrez.ozil,payet
costa,agu,kane
who to bench?Transfer out Moreno, a keeper and defender from Liverpool won't get you anything worthwhile IMO, straight swap with Cedric??
My suggestions, for what they are worth, are to bench Lingard and save your FT if you still retain it. You might think of the possibility of starting Targett ... he'll probably play or never emerge.
Thanks guys,appreciated.
Think i give the armband to Costa from Aguero this gameweek,what do u think?
So neutrals kind of want City to beat Chelsea right? So there's Liverpool and Chelsea options for GW30??
Or if Chelsea beat City, the City vs Norwich game should be on is my understanding.
I'm hoping for thisAhh I forgot to take that into consideration, at least we know we will definitely have 4 fixtures at least that day then? Correct??
This hurts my head
I think Chelsea will beat Man City. They have very little to play for except the FA Cup. Nevertheless I'd prefer Man City to win ...... nice juicy fixture congestion! (Foxes fan)
Not that the pool forwards are, ahem, fit. Should I do firmino--Mshrez?
*now, *mahrez
I'd keep firmino for the villa game and then get mahrez in the week after when liverpool blank
So. Costa a good shout for (C) this week?
Got him in last weekA very good shout IMO
- new article
Targett or Reid > Azpilicueta or Cedric
Who to play:
a) Ward (WAT)
b) Smith (STO)
butland mccarthy
moreno davies simpson bellerin williams
mahrez alli ozil ayew watson
lukaku aguero kane
3.8m itb 2 ft
need to use 1 ft ???????????????? with a view towards week 27 and 30captain a) aguero or b) lukaku
Where is the article that the guys mention in the podcast that was written regarding GW30?
Sorry for OT.
But, are those two fixtures (Liverpool, Everton, City and Newcastle...) announced?
Or are there some predictions in which GW will they be played?
Or some other fixture changes, depending on FA cup.
I dont have much time lately, so i cant read FFS so detail.
Thanks!
