In the first of a number of members articles over the international break, we delve into the data from the Gameweek gone by. Palace’s approach with Christian Benteke arrives under the radar, whilst we also take a look at Paul Pogba’s first away outing for United, Chelsea’s in-form attacking duo and the performance of City’s playmaker in the weekend win over West Ham.
Pieters.
B & D.

could be pretty academic right now with 1.5 weeks till the next gw, the transfer window still open and many players playing 2 internationals in the meantime
Morning all 😀
Foster/Jakupovic
Valencia/Stones/Evans/Friend/Amat
Hazard/Mahrez/Lamela/Redmond/Capoue
Ibra/Aguero/Rondon
2 FT's. Nothing in the bank.
Which move sounds the best?
A) Mahrez and Aguero to Alexis and Lukaku
B) Redmond and Aguero to Alexis and Benteke
C) Anything else?
Thanks 🙂
A for me
Cheers Fissh. 🙂
A with Costa
Ozil over Sanchez too to keep Kun in sight
This part is essential
Cheers LMB. 🙂
I've the Kun move planned out. Can get him with 2 FT's with enough in the bank.
Lamela + Lukaku -> Januzaj + Kun is what I'm looking at GW 6
Looks good! 🙂
A
Cheers Moin. 🙂
A
Cheers PF. 🙂
A for me too Tff.
Ta HVT. 🙂
For next GW, Who to play?
A- DDG
B- JakupovicDdg
Thanks
if you have ddg, play him every week
Cheers
lol
??
Took the plunge into signing up, wildcard active.
Foster jak
McAuley Valencia shaw friend Amat
Hazard Sanchez sterling capoue Redmond
Costa ibra negredo
This is as of now, thinking shaw to baines when (if) shaw gets his price rise.
Jak to Pickford, reassess if Sunderland get ruddy.
Tad worried about how Sanchez will play now that Perez is there, could become Ozil.
We happy with Costa and negredo? Could change to something like benteke, Defoe and boost Redmond.
0itb.
Quite simply I'm stuck however quite happy aguero has caused people to think more than normal, any comments/ideas would be appreciated
Who's getting Gerard Deulofeu when he joins Boro?
Huh? Whoseddat?
My current team is:
Courtois
Baines – McAuley – Friend
Hazard – Barkley – Tadic – Ramirez
Aguero – Ibra – Gray
Jakupovic – Capoue – Shaw - Amat
1 FT
Bank: 0.3
What should I do:
A. Aguero ➡ D.Costa/Lukaku for 1FT
B. Tadic + Aguero ➡ Sanchez + D.Costa/Lukaku (-4)
C. use WC
(*) if A/B – which out of Costa/Lukaku?
WC Team
Midfield of Firmino, Ozil, Sterling, Antonio, Hazard
Defence : Holgate, Walker, Mcauley, Valencia, Amat.
Striker: Benteke, Vardy, Defoe
0 the bank
Will get back Augero in Gw 6 for Vardy
A lot of early transfers and hits flying around here considering it's internationals...personally hanging on as long as possible before deciding
2FT
0,9MIB
Foster / Jaku
Stones / Morgan / Friend / Kone / Amat
Sanchez / Hazard / Barkley / Routlege / Højbjerg
Aguero / Vardy / Long
Aguero + Routledge + Højbjerg -> Diomande + Mane + Sterling ?
(Then gw5 Friend -> Baines, then gw6 Long -> Defoe )
Want to WC gw8, but then I have to go 2 rounds without Aguero. Is that to risky, given teh price rise?
A) Ozil & Sterling
B) Sanchez & Lamela
?
A) Sanchez + 5.5
or
B) Özil + Antonio
B
Foster
Shaw Stones Morgan
Hazard Barkley Lamela Redmond
Ibra Kun Gray
Jaku Friend Kone Capoue
0.6 itb 1 FT
Should I WC? If not what do I do with my transfer?
anyone knw exact time price rise?
(if possible please tell how many hr from now to avoid timezone...)
17hr 25min? comes out to 2:15am UK TIME?
I can buy any striker - already have Ibra, Who'll I get?
Lukaku for fixtures
Costa or Rooney for Form
Can someone please confirm if I make 2 transfers now for -4 then decide to wildcard at some point during the international break will the -4 still come off my points or would the WC cancel it out?
WC will cancel it out
I am looking to Downgrade Musa, Who is the best pick? can't think of many.
PS: Not interested in Negredo.Defoe or that list I posted yesterday,
Diomande
Stuani
Borini
Barrow (punt)I suppose you should include Gray too Moin.
Yeah, I was interested in Gray till the ban thing came up. Defoe is another one on my radar...thanks HVT! 🙂
Thinking of Zaza punt as well with some good fixtures...only thing is he is unproven
Teke or Defoe.
Thanks TFF 🙂
Defoe
What's the predicted Boro defence when everyone is Fit?
No one knows..Fabio/Friend/Chambers to fight for 1 spot?
Ayala and Friend are the only ones nailed HVT. Barragan/Nsue/Gibson might all be at threat will the Chambers signing.
Mind helping me out in my conundrum above? 😉Thanks, is Ayala fit now-would he be better than Friend?
He's 0.5m more. I don't think he's worth the extra personally, especially now because Boro's fixtures get a bit tougher.
Thanks mate
Wilfried Bony ✔
@wilfriedbony
It’s a new day and I look forward to a new exciting challenge
Is he heading somewhere?Stoke rumored to be interested.
If that does happen, might bring him in for Musa
Is he match fit tho?
He was training, and will train with the squad for a full week. I don't think fitness is a issue with him
Ok, straight into my team I reckon with Lukaku/Ibra.
If this happens, who will be City's n°9 for the next 3 games?
Is Iheanacho healed?
Can Nolito handle the role?Nolito/Sterling dosen't matter the front three will be rotating through those positions
This altho Ihe will be a brilliant stand-in for Kun from a FPL perspective.
No one knows. Sterling or Kelechi probably.
you would have thought so from that - West Ham or Stoke interested? Everton seem to be in the market for a striker too
Everton would want a striker to complement Lukaku; Bony i s too similar. Stoke best fit, I'd say.
Do ye think the Derby could be a mourinho shut out? Have shaw, stones, zlatan and Kun (albeit Kun will go)
Yes I do think this, especially with Aguero spearhead missing Pep will probably go without a striker.
I'll be playing Shaw and Valencia but benching Stones.With 5 Mancs in my squad I'm expecting a dire GW. No idea what the score will be but it'll be a poor game and my reds and blues will cancel each other out.
Question everyone has been asking in the past 24h...
What to do with Aguero if you already own Zlatan ?Most seem to be going with either Lukaku or Benteke.
Citizen Kane to come back firing ?
Is Dembele back ?
If everyone has been asking it, why are you asking it now?
Everyone owns both of them, grow a pair.have been buried at work and haven't been on ffs since sunday...
Was everyone asking that question at work for the past 24hrs?
Since you have broken the top 10k in TEN seasons i strongly suggest you stop raging with the attitude Mr keyboard warrior 😉
I went with lukaku
Close to finalising my wildcard. Two questions.
A. Firmino and 4.5 def
B. Lamela and Baines
Best 4.5 mid, other than Capoue
1. Fletcher
2. Hojberg
3. Other?I wouldn't bet on Lamela. So far he's been OK but his influence still is limited and his behaviour might play against him. I found him pretty selfish and annoyed.
First series or so-so results for Spurs and he's on the bench imoWould you rather Antonio?
Is Sanchez (c) and Ozil too much on a WC?
One would give way to Kun in time?If it allows you to get Kun back in with 2 FT's why not?
You are going for Sanchez (c) against Saints?
Not worried that he as a World Cup Qualifier match in Chile on 7th and a match against Saints on 10th..so might not play full game or get rested...Hmm, good point. When does Ozil play?
Tomorrow, that's it..
I don't think it's too much if one will act as a placeholder. Gives you a couple more games to decide which one you'd rather have without losing any of their points
Pope or Robinson second choice at Burnley? Cheers
If Isco moves to Premier League (to Spurs by rumour), at what price would you be interested in him as a FPL asset?
£8m or less
Below 8.0 and I'd get him in I think. Providing he is starting every game. They have a few AMs.
They do, but I'd imagine that if they buy a Real Madrid and Spain international one, they'd play him. May depend on whether it's coach's choice or not, of course. It can get really awkward when the club buys players that it rates high but the coach doesn't like, or that don't suit his tactics. But I see no reason why Isco wouldn't fit in Poche's plans.
Don't think he'd be that interesting as a FPL asset
I'm surprised you're _that_ negative about him, but yeah, his scoring numbers from an over dominant and very attacking Real Madrid are not very promising. But then, he's very talented and attacking player, and I think there's a lot of potential in him, if played high enough, preferably behind the striker but even on the flank. Now he's been in a role of assisting the assister.
How's this looking (WC):
Foster, Pickford
Shaw, Baines, McAuley, Friend, Amat
Hazard, Ozil, Lamela, Sterling Puncheon
Ibra, Lukaku, Negredo
Shaw will switch to Valencia if he Shaw rises first, so I can make the 0.1m profit. Can get Aguero back for 2FTs, Luk + Sterling > Kun + 4.5 mid.Don't like your Kun plan. You'd be stuck with having to start Puncheon or 4 defenders
I'm fine with starting Puncheon. He can be replaced later if needs be. He will start every game in an attacking role and has Benteke to hit now. Tends to pitch in with goals of him own too.
I could easily downgrade Baines and upgrade Puncheon before the deadline. Don't think I will though.
bony tweeting about a new challenge ahead, wonder where he is going
Stoke
wham
Looks like Wilshere is going to Palace or the Cherries!
5.9m, could be a decent pick if he can stay fit.
The two B's defensive stats are shocking.
Just saying.
😉
Skewed a bit by their early fixtures, I'd say. But it shouldn't be vastly different from what you expected anyway.
Looks like Ruddy to SUN is not happening.
4,0 Group Hug
Think Wenger will throw Perez straight in?
7 years, 8 months agoBench one of this lot. Already have Foster.
(A) Evans (bou)
(B) Stones (mun)
(C) Shaw (MCI)
(D) Pieters (TOT)
