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.
Camera angle is terrible.

8-5 final
Does anyone know what club holds the all time record of most combined goals scored in total vs a single club since the premier league began ? Would love to know, my guess would be Liverpool or United v Villa
Man Utd v Newcastle must be up there, regardless of Toon missing two PL seasons.
Those two you mentioned will be high up too.
Man U 93 - 50 Newcastle
Arsenal 82 - 43 Newcastle
Thanks mate! I knew you was gonna pop up and answer, will go asleep feeling complete now 🙂
I don't like these sort of questions because the prembleague only going for a bit over 20 years. I thought the way sky ignored Jimmy Dunne when going on about vardys "record" was disgusting. All records should be when the top tier began.
Man U 86 - 27 Villa
Arsenal 81 - 40 Villa
Liverpool 76 - 46 Villa
I can't check them all quickly but can check any others you wanna know one by oneArsenal 89 - 40 Everton
Man U 87 - 38 Spurs runs in 3rd
Sorry Jay, new winner:
Man U 95 - 44 West Ham
😀
Can someone point me to a gw 30 article? I have no idea what teams will/might miss games. Need to do homework on it!
Thanks
You might wanna change yours
Everton game isn't confirmed off 100% if Arsenal replay is delayed and winner gets Everton.
Thanks lads. Plenty of planning needed for me so!
You lot listening too much to RuthNZ
You could include Chelsea/Man City if they draw.
Your facts aren't 100% correct tbh.
The Man City - Chelsea one is a real problem if it goes to a replay. Because of the way the European games fall for both teams there is a big risk they wouldn't be able to find a slot for that in the fixture list before GW30. Hull v Arsenal on March 8 could work if the Tigers reschedule their game with Brentford. But tickets for the game against the Bees are already on sale...
8th is CL night so 7th more likely to happen.
Hmmm, Arsenal play the early kick-off on the 5th and Hull's previous game is on the 3rd so that might work. I doubt Arsenal will be happy playing two games that close together though.
7th or 8th isn't much different. CL nights seems to be the big issue so 8th won't happen. Really depends on how next weeks CL game goes.
7th march makes much more sense than postponing quarter finals.
Ruth trying to be controversial for the sake of it as usualDo you not understand the Chelsea/Man City part though?
2012
r5 Tottenham vs Stevenage went to a replay
replay played in QF weekend
r6 Tottenham vs Bolton happens 3 weeks later
2009
r4 Arsenal vs Cardiff went to a replay
replay played in r5 weekend
r5 Arsenal vs Burnley played in QF weekend
r6 Arsenal vs Hull happens 1 week later*r6 and QF are one and the same for ease of reading.
The difference between the 7th and 8th is quite big in terms of athlete recovery though.
Arsenal would likely rotate 9/10/11 players again if it were on the 7th and there is precedent for FA Cup happening on a Monday after Saturday games too so don't rule it out, though it is as rare as the above.
I'm not ruling anything in or out. Just running through the arguments for and against with TM. 🙂
There's a fair amount of precedent over the last 10 years for postponing FA Cup QFs, it's a valid point.
Hull face three top-10 Championship sides before the replay, which would likely take place on the week beginning March 7, at the KC Stadium.
However, Standard Sport understands that the exact date of the two club’s fourth FA Cup encounter in the past three seasons has not been confirmed and is not expected to be until Monday, when Arsenal will be focused on preparations for their daunting clash with Lionel Messi and company.
Above from standard, sounds like we will know on Mondayyes but until then Sunderland vs Everton and West Ham vs Watford are not confirmed off. Or at least until the draw at 18:15 Sunday.
I have added a note to the blog
+1 it'd be a shame if readers operated on a 'known fact' that turned out wrong.
You mean like what happened on dogs blog, when him and Ruth NZ led the entire community to think the doubles were to be in GW25 ?
Agreed we wouldnt want a repeat of thatVery few thought GW25 was an option tbh.
There's a difference between touting possibilities and 'known facts' but whatever.
They certainly did
Wrong site.
I'm pretty sure I only ever said it was an option, not that it would definitely be happening. There was a gap a game could have been played in and given the potential for fixture congestion later in the season it didn't seem right to rule it out. You seemed fairly bullish on the prospect of a DGW25 too, IIRC. 😉
Link time...
A few factors needed to occur for DGW25 to happen, they were never guaranteed and the factors didn't line up.
to be fair to dog, it was Ruth NZ mainly who was very vocal in support of the gw 25 scenario
All of us I think were on the likely side of the fence on gw25.
"There's a difference between touting possibilities and 'known facts' but whatever."
This meant for you and not Diva I guess , given your 'Known Facts' on ur siteThe factors for Man City vs Newcastle did line up but it just didn't happen.
Didn't City need to get knocked out?
Well, whatever happens, the scheduling this year seems a bit of a nightmare... Which is convenient for those arguing to do away with replays, but more difficult for those of us trying to work out what's going on.
Que sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be...
😀Knocked out of what TM?
FA Cup? Guess they didn't want the early game otherwise.
No, just avoid a replay, which they did. The gap in GW25 allowed space for a replay. Admittedly it would have been short notice to organize a rearranged match, but no less time than an FA Cup replay.
Cheers, Eve vs Pool seemed more likely.
One final note, for the record. I have scanned back through Ruth's posts and comments on my blog in the DGW posts and I have yet to find anywhere where he suggests a DGW25 is anything more than a possibility. I hope that puts the matter to bed and we can all move on.
Ruth has never said anything wrong imo , neither have you Diva....its just how can someone on his blog write "known facts".... but nevermind - lets just end this as you say 🙂
Sounds nearly as bad as you constantly warning everyone off Zouma as he 'wasn't nailed on'... 😆
He wasn't 'nailed on' . He was first choice but far from nailed on....and I never broadcasted as a 'known fact' and then adding a note about some other guy then demeaning his point...but yeah 'nearly as bad'
More likely to start gwk27? Oxlaide-Chamberlain or Cedric?
Cedders
Soares
Back in the room. What were you scamps get up to while I was gone?
Nothing, as i just got back too.
Bonus coins, anyone?
Does anyone fancy Wijnaldum after his blank? stk BOU lei SUN nor sou SWA looks good
Only 3 home games.
Fair enough, just read through some NUFC fans' tweets and they're not too impressed with his away form!
he does tempt as a 5th mid to get through gw 30
I'm looking at him, Willian, Arnie, and Siggy atm. Got Silva and Alli as well waiting to see if they'll blank.
Siggy from gw29 is tempting
This
Impressive Dead Zone tonight 😀
aguero to Costa ( for just this week)
Barkley to mahrez?
for free?
good idea?How many GW27 players now?
How is this looking?
Butland *
Toby, Bellerin, Collins, Fonte*
Sanchez, Firmino, Mahrez*, Payet,
Kane, Vardy*
Schmeichel *, Stanislas *, Francis*, Aguero,
1ft, 1.8m
6 GW 30 players currently.
Prob doing Firmino- Arnie/Willian this week.
Siggy in on GW 29 for Sanchez/Payet and maybe 1 more move..
There may be 1 or 2 more available by then..
I'm doing same moves. Great minds think alike or fools seldom differ.
suppose the danger is most people are doing the same..
wont be easy to catch up with the ML leaders etc.. Top 50k etc..
TM Check
C
1.30 in the afternoon here.
Australian west coast?
Defence is:
VVD Toby Wollscheid Simpson Moreno
Moreno to?
(A) Fonte
(B) Daniels
(C) Williams
(D) OtherA
C
B
D
Just had to complete the set... but really I'd go A
Are any of these FA Cup results like Arsenal's 0-0 draw forcing a replay going to affect their premier league fixtures?
Probably.. Nobody knows for sure though.
Just have to wait and see.
Maybe the replay will be announced by Monday.OK cheers!
Good morning folks
Guten morgen herr grav
Wie geht es ?
Donner und blitzen!
So when the draw for the next round in FA Cup is done tonight, will the dates also be disclosed along with the opponents? Or is it just names without dates?
I think just names and no dates
Cheers. Wonder when the dates will come out. Have 2 FTs loaded and a decent team for now. Knowing the blanks etc. would be so pivotal in the next few weeks' transfers.
Who two need to go?
1) DDG
2) Ward
3) King
4) MorenoWow Which*
All
😆 This ^
And this ^ 🙂
Bring in Bruce Kamau!!
I just know that now Newcastle have a game in GW30 Mark is somehow going to convince himself to draft in the mighty Andros Townsend...
DDG
Bellerin Dann VVD Nyom Huth
Ozil Payet Mahrez
Kane
Henn Aguero Lukaku Barkley
1FT 0.2ITB
Lukaku->Vardy will be my FT unless City and Chelsea draw in the cup
1) Barkley -> Eriksen-4
2) DDG -> Butland -4
3) A different transfer
4) No hit, play 5-3-2
Luk->Var is going to be needed anyway given his form and fixtures. Wait till the Cup is over before doing anything else.
If Dawson is out should I do Simpson to huchs or Dawson to someone else?
Never bench, never cap'n, never sell.
Just have the same combo. You mean Dawson or Simpson?
Don't listen to Jafalad! Every second word out of his mouth is "Dawson" 😉
Oh. 😮
I don't doubt his knowledge. I just think he's on a cut of Dawson's ownership numbers or something 😆
Cheeky oik. Where have you emerged from? 😉
😆
I hail from the land of the cheeky oiks!! 🙂It has been noted. 😛
Are you Dawson's brother?
No - he should be in every team. The Pulis factor and his attacking stats back this up.
Not rocket science really.To be fair, I would have agreed several month ago, but the Pulis effect doesn't seem to be in force anymore. Granted, he still poses a constant threat of attacking returns.
Like LUFC, it will return. Keep the faith.
Leeds United!? I hope for your sake the Pulis reemergence is a little quicker! 😉
Of course. Rocket Science and FPL have nothing in common. 😉
You are another one. Christina and I will be beginning Deadzone initiation tests shortly on all you newbies.
Newbies!? The cheek of it!! I've just been actually working the last Shhhh...
*last couple of months
He has resigned 17 times before. He will be back.
Dawson.
Looks like Pellegrini is an FPL player..
By saying he'll field a youth team and FA cup is not his priority, I think we can anticipate having MCI for GW30.. What a great news and just too bad for those who sold Kun a bit too early.
Looking forward to seeing a CRY win over TOT tonight.Are you from Mauritius? I fancy a holiday.
Yep I am.. Yeah you won't regret it.. Just right now its burning hot for European..
With the high humidity and a temp. turning around 30°C, its better you come in April or November.To avoid the cylcones etc?
Quite unique to have a poster from a small tropical island.Hmm.. if you wish, I can send you some postcards of our small wonderful island.
How is the weather currently?
Sunny and extremely hot with high level of humidity. around 30°C.
Thanks!
Taking my fiancé there next week, but no the weather forecast it just looks like thunder and rain, but glad you can tell me otherwise 🙂
Any other tips now that I am already bothering you?There is not much rain but it can just happen due to the high level of humidity. That's how it is in summer, the rain can just start out of the blue and last for 2 to 3 hours.
But for the coming weeks, it should be sunny, except in case of cyclone formation, which is frequent during this period.Thanks a lot! Appreciate it.
Will look forward to experiencing it all...
Can someone please define the term 'known facts'?
😉Fact
a thing that is known or proved to be true.
Synonyms - reality, actuality, certainty,certitude;
Known knowns.
West Ham blank in gw30.
Bournemouth vs Swansea is definitely on.West Ham blank in GW 30 is not 100% fact
I thought is was definitely going to be a blank now that Watford won yesterday?
All i can say is a fact is easier to confirm than many facts!
It's all relative.
What is known to me might not be to you. And what is a fact here might not be in a parallel universe.
Hence, there are no known facts.
Wibble!
Hey guys, any idea when the Arsenal replay will be? Can it postpone any EPL game for Arsenal giving them a blank on either GW 28 or 29?
I am going to be a member 😎
Of what?
FFS duh
Really nice that you got it for free 🙂
😀
You already are lad! 😛
How?
Oh you mean mean a member of FFS!?
Mine was a veiled accusation that you were a member, as in a tool.
I was just kidding thoughh mate! 🙂
You should thank me in a way. Oghash came onto the 'giving' mode on one of the dead zone evenings where I kept him entertained enough to want to donate to this site by making someone deserving a member. 😉
Erm... ⇩
Thanks a lot Ziro! 🙂
Or not 😉
"If Eden gets membership he'll be unbearable with the stats, so the other two." 🙁That's why I mentioned "in a way". I also said no offence to you. I like you here as a poster in general, even if you cross the line a few times by being obstinate. I would love for you to be a member. That comment was tongue-in-cheek if I caused a misunderstanding. 😀
Use the stats well and keep us informed of interesting observations. Just don't go overboard with it. 😉
Actually, Ziro, it could work the other way round: when he's a member, his stats posts are suspect to revealing member data, so he must tone them down.
Hehe, so this is Oghash's grand scheme to make him pipe down? 😉
I jest.
I was only taking the Mick. Didn't want to cause any trouble 🙂
Or... you could thank me, because I was the one who named you when Oghash was in a generous mood...
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/12716094
😉Oh thanks Jossy! You are too kind! 🙂
You're welcome. Oghash it's actually the kind one to be fair...
I thanked him as well 🙂
Well, being away for a week, I'd like to jot down few points, some being rather late!
1- Rooney punt
Needless to say, Rooney punt failed miserably, meaning I'll have to play
4-4-2 with surman as a mid damn!
2- the Barca penalty
I thought it was a fun thing to do, brave too, if it'd backfired, then messi & Suarez would've been savaged by the world, so well done
3- Manchester united
My beloved club fell to another defeat, to a club that was found when I was 7 years old, but it's such a a tragic thing that we're still mostly going to go through, despite such a poor performance
ThanksOuch.
As a Danish fan of United it was a horrble game to watch. But I still think we can pull together in the second leg. Not only based on if United can better their performances, but also because Midtjylland are known being a very good home team and I think the support they got from fans in the match was amazing and could really have played a part.
Let's hope that the second game will turn out better.Hopefully
How can you be a United fan with a grav of Suarez?
Unless you're Uruguayan?Hahahah, that was for the FFS world cup, I was in team Uruguay, we went out in the group stages on goal difference :/
(Trying to pitch myself in a subtle way for a similar tournament if it happens next year) 😛ah, you should have someone like Cavani 🙂
i'm looking at a Fraser Forster Grav actually!
GW 30- Definites count as things stand for your team.
I am currently on 6 players for the GW.
1 ft this week and 2 more.. will get me to 9 probably.
How's everyone faring??6 playable and a playing bench keeper. 1FT this week, to be spent on replaacing either Aguero or Firmino, dependent on the Chelsea v City game.
Also, a playable backup keeper (Forster & Butland). I may Bench Boost 😆Jonty has p1ssed on your chips a bit here

3 Swansea!?? Wow!
Yeah have had Fabianski and Williams for ages and Ayew as well - would like to swap Ayew for Siggy if I have a spare transfer tho!

5 free transfers.You look very good Tony, 5 ft's and 6 playing is class
VVD & Vardy have been recent transfers in.
I broke even on Lukaku > Vardy.
VVD in was very successful so far.
If I got say even Aguero available today and had 7 players with 5 transfers I could get a bit creative over the next few weeks with my transfers in.
Decided during this period that I would punt on some form differentials.
Playing (7):
Elliot
Fuchs
Wolly
Daniels
VVD (will get him for Moreno now)
Mahrez
Vardy

Will use my 2 FTs to get rid of Deulofeu & Baines & get Fuchs & Siggy and will have 10 and then next week 1 FT will be used to get rid of Nyom for a SOU defender (yes, I'm doubling up) and then I will have a good starting 11 for GW30.Maybe - Cech + Ozil
Playing - Kane + Alli + Toby + Vardy + Mahrez + Huth + VVD + (Targett) + Kun + Gosling
Not playing - Cresswell + Payet
With my 1 saved FT, I should be ok 🙂
CRY did me a great favour though 🙂
Playing 11
1 Man City – Kun
3 Spurs -
1 Bmouth
2 Shmpton
2 Arsenal
2 Leicester
Current Team
Butland | Hennesey
Huth | Targett | Fonte | Bellerin | PVA
Sanchez | Ozil | Alli | Payet | Firmino
Vardy | Ighalo | Kane
------------------------------------------
and this is what i will be WC to after GW 27, let me know if there's anyoen else i missed
brackets is who i am going to bring in
Butland | Hennesey (Harts)
Huth | Targett (Kolarov) | Fonte | Bellerin (Smalling) | PVA (Jagielka)
Sanchez | Ozil | Alli (Mahrez) | Payet (Barkley) | Firmino (Courtinho)
Vardy | Ighalo (Lukaku) | Kane (Costa)
with1.9 itb for Kun if possibleHonestly I think it is too early to WC.
You hava a nice team and can make it really good with a few transfers. Personally I would save WC till later.
What other chips do you have left?i have the bench and triple cap
i dont want to leave my wc till late which means i will be forced into using the other chips - because you cant use both in oen week
Then I would hold.
People are talking about two options to maximise points.
1) WC GW33, BB DGW34, TC DGW37. This seems to be the biggest DGW, so people are using BB here to get the maximum number of DGW players. Be aware though, GW 35 will probably have some blanks.
2) TC DGW34, WC GW 36, BB GW 37. Here you will have a number og DGW players in 37, but don't have to worry about blanks (only rotation). You will probably be more prepared for the blank in GW 35 than above. Personally this if what I am planning to do IF the two double game weeks seems to "almost" contain same number of teams (depending on the teams too of course).
Of course it all depends on hoe the schedule is going to look like, so it is very early to say yet.
If I were you, I just wouldn't use my WC just yet, when your team isn't in bigger troubles than it is atm.
Good luck though with any move you make.wow, thanks, the most useful information i received in this forum
You are welcome.
Just remember at is it still a little bit uncertain when/who/how regarding the DGW's. But would hold your WC, BB, TC until it is clear.
Good luck
I'm thinking 2, but with the WC in GW35, with the team chosen with 15DGW's in GW37 in mind.
Thinking about this as well. Again still to early to make a final decision, as we don't fully know who will have DGW when and who will blank etc. when.
I just read someone saying that teams having blanks in GW35 will probably have DGW in GW37. Not fully sure about this, but IF it is the case, then you plan would be very hard to do.That's true, but there is almost certain to be other team that play in both (plus you 4 players), time will tell if it's a viable option.
(plus you can bench 4 players)
Need Pardew to do me a favour today! Too heavilly invested in Spurs, and wouldn't fancy losing value on the likes of Alli and Toby
What do you think the average number of Spurs players in teams? I would really like to keep Kane and Alli, but maybe it isn't completely horrible for me if they win, as many will maybe have 3 Spurs players.
Think you want them to blank if you have 2 or less
As you say a lot will have 3Yeah will see what value I have tied up in them and what the fixtures will look like. Just doesn't look like I will be starting a full XI in GW30 so far, but I think I am starting to be okay with it.
I really don't think it's worth ripping up your team just to field 11
No me neither.
Currently only have 5, which is too little imo, but no I definitely won't take hit to bring in Newcastle defenders and the like just to field 11.
I have 3 as well and I think I'd probably ditch Toby
I've 3 Spurs so want a Palace win, anyone with 2 or less won't be as bothered.

😆 Must be somewhere amongst the best goal celebrations ever, even if accidentally!hahaha. But what a tool he doesn't go to the guy he just hit.
To be fair, some of the blame must be with his team mates.
HAha not really. The way he is looking at the guy falling down WHILE walking away says it all 🙂
To me it looks like he is a bit concerned first but his team mates don't give a rat's arse and just pull him away to celebrate and then he just goes with them and forget's about the camera dude.
*exactly the way he looks at the guy he punched (after initially reacting to having accidentally hit someone) makes me think he's hesitating whether he should just leave and pretend nothing happened or go and see f the guy's okay, but then his team mates help him make his mind real fast. Anyway, very very inconsiderate from both him and his team mates.
Newcastle and either City or Liverpool, are likely to have a DGW in GW34, and also play in GW30, This would make playing a full 11 in GW30, and 11 DGW's in GW34, a possibility.
Are there three players from Newcastle you would want in your team?
Wijnaldum, Ayoze, Dummett
Townsend and wijnaldum are the only ones I'd even consider.
You would need a minimum of three players, that play both weeks, so could be done with just City or Liverpool players.
stopped reading at newcastle
without taking hit's or using WC
But you'd have to get Newcastle players in.
Naah. Not ripping up my team for them.
Only Aguero and Coutinho would be worth it at this stage IMO.could be done with just City or Liverpool players, time will tell.
