We roll out the first in a series of three members articles this week, analysing the player data by position over the previous four rounds of fixtures. Everton and West Brom’s right-backs arrive on our radar along with Swansea’s skipper, whilst we also cast an eye over the recent defensive displays from Liverpool, Chelsea and the Baggies.
I believe that Aston Villa clean sheet which was very close to disappearing was my goodbye to Moreno.
He's out this week for me.
plenty better options
how was it close to disappearing? Villa never had a sniff
they hit the bar
you know when you sell him he will score
Never known a year when I play defenders they leak goals when I don't their CSs stare at me from the bench.
Such a random season.
make sure to tell us who are benching then!
Kevin Stewart may be out for a long time. Ankle ligament damage. https://t.co/Nrm8frPxdP
Gutted for Stewart. He's done so well to get where he has this season
so sad, just has he was breaking into getting some PL gametime too, he really impressed me against WH, real shame
Adam Lallana will miss the game with Augsburg due to an ongoing calf problem but Lucas Leiva is available. (James Pearce) #LFC
predicted lineup?
I hope Sturridge doesnt travelNot sure. I hope Origi starts, Studge stays home
Benteke will start, possibly with Ibe and Origi behind
Prince William is as bald as a coot
He should talk to Roonpig
PVA is the Moreno that delivers.
I'll have a meat feast. Extra mozzarella
Glue!
Are people making their transfers early or late this week....have 2 FT and an itchy trigger figure but from past experience I should hold
Had 2 , did Lukaku -> Vardy since he won't be playing and to avoid Lukaku's price drop , and keeping the 2nd transfer until we know more about blanks and doubles.
Vardy in will also be one of my FT's and was all set on getting rid of Lukaku but I have Kun too who is made of glass and with 2 big games for City, i'm going to wait and see what happens.
Will defo be using my 2nd FT on a player who plays in GW 30....hopefully no FA Cup replays to cloud our judgement
I have 2FT and am holding, injuries could happen but we should have more info on who blanks in 30 so can help me decide who to bring in
Ya I held on doing Lukaku to Vardy and am will to miss price changes in order to bring in two fit players who will play in GW 30.....think i'll wait until the last day to make the 2 FT's but it will be a long bloody wait. 🙁
Hold - too many games between now and next GW
I know it's still way too early, but a quick captain poll:
A) Vardy
B) Kane
C) Payet
D) Mahrez
In Order imo,
A, D, B, CDon't you think Leicester could struggle against a team that would set back?
Nah
A or B - I don't think you can look past penalty-takers at this stage
That's a very good point. there goes my temptation to captain Payet
e) Deeney
good call. Deeney will be out to prove a point after getting thumped by Leeds 😛
haha. You still playing your high risk-high reward strategy Rhino?
yep but still waiting for the high reward, this week was real kick to the stomach, only Costa did something, having no Leics attack could sting in27 too
You'll need one of Mahrez or Vardy.
nope just gonna hope they choke, would rather lose by 300 than gauarantee losing by 100
who is most likely to get benched when stones comes back?
Has to be Mori, No?
Stones
probably should, but probably wont
He has been awful for the last few months his form has nose dived. I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't injured just being taken out of the firing line so Everton can cash in on him at the end of the season.
This would not surprise me at all
Mori
Awfully quiet in here. Am I missing something? We've had FA Cup breaks before. This feels more like an International Break
Day off tomorrow before Europa.
In the last 2 FACup breaks there were PL games scheduled the following midweek - not so this time so it is more like an international break
For the next two GW only, would you rather have:
A) Eriksen (SWA, whu)
B) Arnie (AVL, NEW)
Cheers.I have both 🙂
Eriksen on form thoughEriksen, if only I didn't have Alli.
i have both but Eriksen way more reliable
Eriksen is the opposite of reliable. very streaky player.
Did Costa look ok tonight? Take it he came through unscathed?
Yeah he looked fine. Willian looked their best player as always
cheers
Are there Europa Cup games this week?
yes
Yes, unfortunately.
and next week.
🙁
why so sad about that?
Europa League has also screwed up our season
*always
1st leg this week and 2nd leg next week. Utd and Spurs have FA Cup games in between but Pool don't.
PVA and Khazri look good for the next two games.
They do indeed. I'm considering PVA as my Moreno replacement
Good call, I'm most likely to bring him alongside Khazri
Khazri has looked awesome tbf.
I have a French friend who told me it was the signing of the season when the transfer got announced. He absolutely loves him so I think he will do well.
I'm amazed we've got so player like that. Been desperate for creative mid of that quality for years. Kone looks an absolute beast too!
i'm Tunisian btw and i don't think he will be consistent enough to be FPL gold , his set pieces are lethal though.
Anyone know what happened to the Liverpool young fella Jack Robinson? Played in premiership at 16?
expected him to do more, cheers
Pretty sure he went to qpr 12/18 months ago, not sure after that
faded into obscurity
Any news on Johnson?
Going to jail
T'other one Mr Mccintyre
Still going to jail for crimes against football
Looking to get Arne for Delofeou, will Arne be fit for this week?
Best to wait for presser next week.
im waiting on the presser to do firmino to arnie.. id wait to see
Wait until just before the deadline but looks a solid move if he is confirmed fit with Lennon the flavour of the month at Everton.
So if City has a blank gw30, that means nor will be one of the potential double gameweek city will have later on.
Surely Augero triple captain if fit?im too far behind to do that, may go with Sterling, sigh
Maybe KDB/Silva would be a better differential pick, wouldn't trust Sterling.
sterling might not start both games though
Bit early to say for sure
This. Plenty of time and matches for Aguero to crock himself before then.
58 eligible entries for the Frequent Posters Cup so far on the first day - still a week and a half to register if you haven't already. http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2016/02/16/frequent-posters-cup-2016/

Of the entries, the top 5 most prolific recent posters, with their number of pages in their history, is as follows:
1) Jazziihd (203)
2) TorresMagic (202)
3) Eden Hazardous (140)
4) Ayew Serious (121)
5) Balders (106)Surprised to see Eden so far down
Good luck
it's a race for the top
203 pages! Crikey that's a lot of posting - over 6 pages a day!
Back to 201 😆
in!
damn I'm a lowly 62 haha
😮
Wow, I've really slacked off 😆
I am loosing my touch 🙁
800K agrees 😉
I thought I would be top seed

Enough to power a generator

Could this be detrimental for the potential of DGWs in the future?It won't happen I don't think.
Wish that change had happened pre 99
Pretty much.
Replays aren't really the problem - it's mainly the QF and SF games
It's more the idea to move the FA Cup to weekdays - that way they definitely won't collide with a weekend league game
That could really kill the FACup and as it is, it's probably on life support. The attendances would suffer and the glamour (or what's left of it) would be fairly diminished with midweek games
What we need is a premium defender
I miss the days of a Baines , Ivan , zabaleta , Vidic type . Super expensive but racking up the pointsA tighter league probably mitigates against this
Kompany is this but has been injured. 5.9 points per game for his 10 games.
What is everyones thoughts on the Arsenal Barcelona game?
Messi Suarez Neymar are on fire but I think Arsenal could head to the Nou Camp with a 1-1 from the first leg.0-3 Barcelona. If they feel charitable.
Haha, they have averaged 1.6 goals a game away from home this season which has made me think it won't be quite this one sided.
I fear for arsenal tbh. Barca to score 3 at least i think
Arsenal fan , also fear for Arsenal
I can't see us coping with that front 3 , to be fair I don't know if anyone can
A total fisting for Arsenal i think.. and anyone who comes up against Barcelona will meet the same fate tbh and there can be no shame in it..
This exactly. Def no shame. They are literally next level.
having three players of that quality in attack is borderline unfair lol
fair thing would be to just give Suarez back!
barcelona will boss them around.. agree with them scoring 3
As I said above, something that might give Arsenal fans hope is that Barca have only averaged 1.6 goals away from home in La Liga. That is despite them coming up against the teams which they and Real typically beat 5/6/7/8 at home.
Barca will tear them to shreds. No team in the world can stop that front three at the moment.
arsenal gonna get crushed
nill nill. (twice)
Arsenal win on spotters after messi passes the 5th to Suarez not realising he cant do that in a shootout.
Obviously Arsenal then get knocked out in the next roundwoops reply fail to above
Arsenal fans look away from the replies to the post above
What scorelines if Spurs were there instead?
I live in the real world - we're playing Fiorentina 🙂
As if
Next season?
More interestingly how would a team made up of the current best PL players fare against them?
This would be interesting. I fear though that Barca would still walk away easy winners
im not so sure, they are vulnerable in defence and if it's a rainy day in Stoke....
...Tuesday night at Stoke does change the dynamic...would have to just put out the Stoke XI then as they EPL stars would also be fecked
Leicester 3% possession 1-0 Vardy pen
1-1 Draw 1st leg @ Wembley , 3-0 second leg @ Camp nou for Blaugrana
2/3 nil to barca
need some help here lads
Forster
Cresswell Koscielny Williams Dier Daniels
Payet Sanchez Ayew Alli
Inghalo
Hennessy Aguero Firmino Lukaku
2FT 1.6itb
A) Lukaku for Vardy
B) Firmino To Arnie (if fit) (planning on coutinho pretty soon)
C) Something elseLukaku to kane is also an option
FA Cup may make Aguero to Vardy more of an option.
cheers man. i have 100pts to catchup on my mate.. think its worth the risk of doing both lukaku and aguero to vardy and kane to try gain abit next gw?
Depends on rivals team. Mahrez and Vardy are pretty important now.
thanks mate. i got rid of them to try something different to catchup.. now his gotten rid of vardy but still has mahrez.. so vardy in for me sounds good. got to keep it different!
firmino to mahrez
if he was playing 2 away games in a row i would of lol
Norwich?
i reckon vardy is more important for that one.. but my opinion doesnt count for much.. shocker of a fantasy year!
Lukaku to Vardy, Ighalo to Kane, bench Ashley Williams
I know we have a week and half left until the next GW, but would appreciate some feedback on my defenders for GW27.
Fuchs is locked in, the other 2 positions are up for grabs.
My options are:
A) Ivanovic
B) Bellerin
C) Daniels
D) Ivanovic -> Spurs defender
Which 2 would you play?A and B
a and b
Need to start preparing for GW30. FA Cup with Spurs going through makes D) trouble unless they continue CS. C) seems to have the magic touch atm.
Fair point regarding GW30. It'd be a bit surprising if Spurs ended up having a game to play in GW30.
I agree about Daniels too, hard to sit him given his form and Watford's falling out of form.
I think I'm in a position to save this week, bring in VVD next week then have 2FTs to make a move back for Aguero for GW29 and on.
Where is Eden with his Quizzes?
Chelsea lost.
5am for him.Here you go
Without using google. Where are they now?
John Gudetti
Federico Macheda
Benoît Assou-Ekotto
Daniel Agger
Mohamed Salah
Michu
Roque Santa Cruz
( I managed 3 only)China - it seems to be the 'in' place
Espanyol
Cardiff
Russia somewhere
Brondby
Fiorentina
4th division Spain
Malaga
I know they're basically all wrong hahanot all of them
3 right?
yep
BAE in Russia
Salah is at Roma?
Michu Spanish lower leagues
Who would you start?
A) Forster (CHE)
B) Hennessey (wba)
Forster's incredible form goes without saying, Hennessey has the easier fixture.
Cheersa
I've got the same decision and will probably play Forster. Just don't trust Palace's defence atm
Cheers, my reasoning too.
Leicester defender a good idea? Huth (4.6) or Morgan (4.3)?
Fuchs
yes,,fuchs
Good idea for sure. Huth out of those.
Out of them all... Fuchs?
I may be able to stretch to him if he is really worth the extra cash.Fuchs wins. Huth will have the odd goal week.
Fuchs
Play DDG(ARS) or Hennessey(wba)?
ddg
Hennessey
Hennessey
That's tough. Utd best home defensive record in league. Loads of defensive injuries though so Hennesey.
Hen
Cheers all.
Hen mate
