After assessing the Defenders and Midfielders over the last four rounds of fixtures, we finish our trio of members articles with a look at the men up front. A host of popular picks from City, Leicester and Everton come under scrutiny, whilst we also take a look at Arsenal’s misfiring Frenchman and United’s big-money starlet in light of Wayne Rooney’s knee injury absence.
Nope. They're decent
Can you have too many clean sheets?
You will be disappoint.
3 is fine...but really you have 2 and a half with Targett
i'm coming round to the idea as I've had so many poor defensive returns (lucky to average 1 clean sheet a week) so a SOU clean sheet even only once every 3 weeks would be a better return than I've been getting.
could brilliant in GW30
What did the buffalo say to son when he left for college?
Bison.I would benefit hugely from Tottenham losing tomorrow
How come?
3 of them in my team. Would help a lot with GW30 🙂
Helps plenty just as much. Seeing you are well stocked for GW30, it's better if they win.
Fair comment. Win win situation then!
I think if you have 3 Spurs, you want them to lose. If you have 2 or less you probably want them to win
Anyone doing better than 7+2FTs for Gw30?
That's excellent
6.5... One is gosling lol
Someone will have 8 + 2FTs. Guaranteed.
100%
i've got the same but that does include Targett & Smith who may not be nailed on.
7 and 1 ft but I'll have a full 11 if City win.
That's all we need 🙂
4
No
Just something to keep in mind and whilst subject to change this far out, next weekend looks very wintery.
Looks to be some heavy snow moving across the country Friday night.Wow
Lol. Given the fixture congestion I think they'd play in any conditions atm 😛
Though checking the fixtures there's not many northern teams playing (MUN) and that's almost nailed on. Given tv etc
Have you got a link for that?
I hope you're a meteorologist and not a avid FPL fan searching weather forums for future snow storms lol
Are you kiddin? It's a FPL rookie mistake not to follow the England weather reports this time of year.
*okay, maybe that weather forum thing is a bit heavy.
Haha this is why I'm not OR1
Lol I keep an eye on the weather in winter as I love the snow! Helpful for fpl too but it takes a lot to call of a PL game, still something to keep an eye on though.
Still ages away and as it's the UK all it takes is a few degrees and it falls as rain and just makes us miserable.
Good that. Bookmarked.
I'll see what the Express say on the subject
Jesus we're doomed
"Temperatures poised to dip as low as -14C (7F) in parts threaten a heightened risk to vulnerable people including the elderly and chronically sick.
The warning extends through most of central England "
= Leicester
Does Ranieri count as one of the Elderly?
Ha ha
Mahrez has been chronically in a sick form.
NOOOOOO!!!!!
Any plans to bring in Vardy must be aborted!!!
Also some early Leicester player transfers-in may backfire. 🙁
I fear so
CHRONICALLY SICK !!!....I hope somebody is looking out for Sturridge.
When I was a kid all they needed was an orange ball, bring that back! 🙂
Bla bla bla the good old days
Is that from the Daily Express lunatic or the general press ?
Imagine if they win the league...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72xRZ4FF1IQCould it be arranged so that NO team would win the league to avoid all these kind of awful fan reactions?
The sunday night crowd have no sense of humor. |
Saturday
Oops. 🙂
Best avoid it tomorrow then.
It might make more sense tomorrow. 🙂
Save the bookmark and link us to it tomorrow 😀
Is that supposed to be a joke?
Like piles on a sit in protest
Sadly no. 😐
Just idiot me.It made us laugh though. 😀
If no injuries.. I'm guaranteed 11 for GW 30 🙂
What does that team look like GW31?
Pretty decent
What's the midfield?
Waiting on tomorrow results but 3 guaranteed would be..
Sanchez Sigurdsson Mahrez
So Sanchez isn't guranteed.
*Guaranteed.
No Im waiting on Silva
I can afford to bench Sanchez
Aiming for 8 or 9 myself. it's unlikely that you will be able to transform that team to 11 DGW's in GW34, without taking hits or using WC.
WC bud
Fair enough, but remember there's going to be multiple blanks in GW35.
We'll let future Sepp figure that one out.
Present Sepp just gonna chill out 🙂To early to worry about it ATM anyway.
who's propably not playing gwk30 and who's confirmed ? just WHM and WAT ?
Everton is out too
So get Barkley for avl and WHM or not worth it ?
was planning to ALI > BarkleyWait tomo
Sigurdsson in from GW29 is starting to look like a no-brainer.
Payet to Sigurdsson
I've yet to decide on who has to leave, but with a WHU blank in GW30 and pretty tough fixtures in the weeks to follow, he's definitely a strong candidate.
I've had him all through his hot streak. Benching him for 2 weeks and then I'll captain him.
Got any pics from Cape Town?
Yes a few on my Instagram.
Link?
rupert_lovibond
Mmmmm, cheese. 🙂
The picture at the lake in Hungary is pretty cool.Yes I love it there.
Cheers, looks wonderful.
Ramsey to Siggy that week
Agreed
Chaps, Rod Stewart live at Hyde Park is on BBC 4
How old is he now?
104.
Think he's just passed his triple nelson
Has he not read the Express's dire warnings??? He's not getting any younger
He will be ok in his leopardprint thermals
haha..aye...strange times when he did all that lark.
Mandolin Wind is by a distance my favourite RS song, and a very long way removed from his leopard skin days. The Great American songbook stuff has been good as well.
Who's that?
😆
Nice.
I hope he wore his Kevlar vest.
shame about Everton winning today.. really hoped early Lukaku sellers would be punished!
Alas, there's no justice.
Why. Because you refused to get rid?
? its better that everton win, Luk and Barkley v ighly owned, Bournemouth and Swansea, not so much
Im considereing Shinji Okazaki, desperate times and all
Good evening one and all, hope you're all good?
Am I right in thinking that WBA and Bournemouth
.
(not been on here all night - I guess it probably has already been answered)is there an English version?
Sorry Rhino, awful of me, apologies.
please see below. V
Half right . Bournemouth now have a gw 30 and West Brom is yet to be determined
Quiet on here tonight, everyone watching Rod Stewart I guess.
Not me. That paint isn't going to dry without me watching it.
That implies you are watching 🙂
Good evening one and all, hope you're all good?
Am I right in thinking that WBA and Bournemouth are two more teams in for GW30?nope. Bournemouth and Swansea
Thanks bro.
who is more likely to get points if any...
Gosling or Pughboth 2 pointers.
still.. position wise.. who is more advance?
Alexis Sanchez owners what you up to ?? keeping for SWA at least or selling ?
keeping until we see if Arsenal play GW30.
Why would we sell? He has a game for a start

Is anyone out there....?
You watching X-file Size?
Damn autocorrect again
Is there a running list of gw30 blanks somewhere?
2:
SUN : ___ whm -361 CPL -123 sot -473 [ EVE -172 ]
WHM : *** SUN 361 TOT -138 eve 6 [ WAT 100 ]Perfect. Thank you.
@Doosra...Care to have a guess at the WHM line up I can expect to see tomorrow?
... ... ... ... ... Randolph
Antonio, Ogbonna, Reid, Cresswell
... ... … … Song, Noble
... Kouyaté, Payet, Moses[Lanzini]
... ... ... ... ... Emineke[Parfitt-Williams]Reid not fit until Sunderland.
No Big Andy?Been training since Monday.
No.Ah, that's a shame. I like Big Andy in a big lump of a way.
We were polled whether he should be sold, this week.
I take it the answer was yes.
Overwhelmingly.
"The official figure in favour of selling him was 67.53 per cent – a total of 703 votes with those against totalling 26.51 per cent ( 276 votes) with just 5.96 per cent unable to decide one way or the other (62)." - Claret & Hugh
they're no good Doosra. The likes of Studge and Carroll just hold teams back...even if they do well when fit.
Best thing to do is to get rid as quick as possible and build around reliable starters. They aren't the only players that can score goals for their clubs.Carroll is no Sturridge. Sadly.
No he's not...but I meant injury prone players in general. I don't know how some managers and clubs have the patience with them.
Antonio RB? I don't think so.
Sounds quite a versatile chap if he was considered both up top and at RB..Jeez.
Take note Roy Hodgson
Always handy to have multiple positions for players. Chris Sutton was the last one I can remember who could play either up front or in defence.
Good insurance to have squad players like those.
I was thinking of the exactly same thing. Schlupp is the only other guy who comes to my mind who has played at fullback, wing and striker (oh, and Gareth Bale obviously).
He's not good enough, but we will see.
Made a clearance off the line, and also cleared very present danger second half, last match.Just to be considered in both roles takes some doing as a player.
Yup. Had a poor match, apart from those, but Slaven defended him stoutly.
I like Billic. I bet his players do as well. Somehow he seems to have built a Slaven shaped wall where he absorbs a lot of the press nonsense.
Yup. Absolute Master! 😀
Okay. No other CBs or LBs who could play there?
Ogbonna could, but depends how fit Reid and Collins are.
Doneil Henry is in the squad. He's the other option if it isn't Antonio.
Bugger. Carroll to Okazaki -4 it is then
HOT TOPIC
Question: Should I transfer X > Y
Answer: No.....WAIT
What if I can't physically wait?
The team I want to see against Barcelona this week.
-------------------------------Cech
---Bellerin---Mertesacker--Koscielny---Monreal
--------------Coquelin-----------------Elneny
--Ramsey-------------------Ozil------------------Sanchez
------------------------------Giroud
Ramsey at CM leaves us too exposed, I think Elneny would be more suited to play that role. Also, if not Ramsey at RM, I hope we play Campbell, and not Ox/Walcott.
When will fplStatistics get rid of that dreadful snow??
In summer.
Snow is very topical at the moment
It's a touch Christmasy though??
Christmas is right around the corner ...
Evening all. Beenter busy all day with work insurance claim and home decorating so have no idea what's happened in today's foodtie. What were the results and impact on FPL ?
Seriously? How hard is it to find out the results
Only just got sat down and couldn't be arsed to look elsewhere. If you can't be helpful don't bother replying.
2 blanks, in brackets[ ]:
SUN : ___ whm -361 CPL -123 sot -473 [ EVE -172 ]
WHM : *** SUN 361 TOT -138 eve 6 [ WAT 100 ]Cheers Doosra.
You're welcome. That's game week 30, obviously.
He must be mad about something and taking out on peeps here...cheer up rhino...all is good
Er wrong
I'm fine just struggle to comprehend how anyone who cares enough bout fpl to post on a forum can't be arsed to check the scores first. It's why I'll never be a mod, refuse to be nice to every post 😛
look here
http://www.triggerlips.comThanks Triggerlips
If that's the level of effort then why should we be arsed replying. I like to be helpful but not spoonfeed
You need to sometimes think a bit before you post mate. Yes maybe I was being a bit lazy but your reply was unwarranted. If you knew the circumstances why I hasn't had time or inclination to look elsewhere for results then maybe you wouldn't have replied in the way you did.
If you've got the time to post you've got the time to check. I've no idea what's going on in your life, I hope it's nothing serious
There is no way I want to fall out mate. It was down to being lazy as my first port of call was this site. The main thing taking up my time has been all my pc equipment and software being stolen from my business so I literally haven't had a minute.
Peace ?Of course peace. It's not an argument just difference of opinion
OK begrudgingly let you off even though you are Leeds and I live in Sheff ☺☺☺☺☺☺
Come on guys make peace 😉
I ain't backing down, it's a valid point. I never ever get personal so really no one should ever be offended by my posts
He's just trying to engage in conversation on a forum 🙂
Hi All,
I know you probably heard it on here thousand times. Please can someone give me tell layout for the blank gw30 how will I look?look up
WTF?
Cheers bro
Check stickies

Same whore...

@Doosra other than Arsenal and Leicester who has got a good run in according to your ticker?
Looking at Dawson replacements you will be happy to hear!Stoke
QUICK QUIZ
Name the 3 players who have played in the PL who have surnames/shirt names that are exactly the same as the best-known-as first name of a current PL manager (for example, If Lee Clark was a current PL manager, an acceptable answer would be Jason Lee)Julian Dicks > LVG

So Remy- Remi Garde doesn't count.. Gutted 😀
You can have half a point 😉
Sidney Sam Allardyce.
Sidney Sam has never played in PL
Ohhhh.
I'm pretty sure Sidney Sam has only ever played in Germany.
Sounds like an Australian hobo
😀
David Luiz (LVG)
No clue about the third, must be fairly old?
Yes, but not obscure
Philipe Luis
Filipe Luis, Louis van Gaal
I'm sure Slaven Bilic counts for himself lol.
Ok seriously now, isn't this a legit answer?
If his name was Bilic Bilic it would be
Ahh right I messed up the surname, first name part. 🙁
half point for C.Ronaldo - Ronald Koeman

Our country can't get anymore ridiculous.
A 4 year old boy handed 25 years in jail for killing 4 officers and possession of a weapon.
Whoever is selling drugs to our judiciary system and government should get a freakin statue. Also I must have his number.WOAH...Which country ?
Egypt 😀 I can't stop laughing I swear
I wanna know who's selling you your drugs
Enjoy

Can't make this up even with the purest stuff ever.Don't think the kid will actually go to jail though so isn't it a bit of a non story?
The kid won't go to jail ofc better off not get his case reach trial, our government and the system is stupid enough to prosecute a 2 year old kid for 2 years.
If you had Barkley would you get rid for Arnie/Shaqiri?
Yes.
No why
8 years, 3 months ago
3 SOU defence is too much isn't it? Forster, VVD, Targett.
