The Big Numbers – Gameweek 26

Our usual post-Gameweek delve into the Opta members’ data arrives for your Tuesday night perusal now, as we cast an eye over a pair of Belgian frontmen with contrasting recent fortunes and highlight a couple of in-form wingers with Gameweek 28 fixtures to follow.

Elsewhere, we check up on a couple of Spurs attackers in light of the return to 3-4-2-1 before assessing the recent showings of West Brom’s six-goal centre-back.

    Is the DGW confirmed already? It doesn't show up on FPL

      Not yet. It will be confirmed tonight.

    Hi guys,

    Is it offically CONFIRMED news that is City Win tonight it is a DGW for them this week ( GW27) ?\

    1. John t penguin
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      yes

      Was said on the official FPL show this will be the case, though I emailed FPL Towers earlier this week for absolute confirmation and they haven't replied. Probably too busy eating their prawn sandwiches.

    Is just Aguero enough cover for the DGW? May TC him... Other transfers I'm considering taking hits for are Heaton -> Caballero, Jones -> Stones or Eriksen -> Silva..

    Foster
    Jones - Coleman - Alonso
    Coutinho - Eriksen - Lanzini - Philips
    Aguero - Lukaku - Ibra

    Heaton - Nyom - Baines - De Roon

    0FT, 0.0 ITB

      *That was supposed to be Eriksen -> Sterling 🙂

    2. ILOVEBAPS

      I think he's enough. Who comes in just makes your team weaker in 28.

      1. GoonerByron
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        I have two 28 keepers in Foster and Heaton, both have bad fixtures from there onwards.. Don't think Caballero will outscore them both in 28 even with a hit?

          *In the DGW, I'm still half asleep this morning 😛

            No I don't. City defence is not that reliable this season.
            Just my opinion so go with your gut.

    3. Dreams
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Why not Sterling instead of Silva? Other moves don't look so good.

  4. Whats the Mata?
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    7 years, 1 month ago

    RP:

    A. Ibra to Kun (-4)
    or
    B. Eriksen + Costa to Sterling + Kun (-8)
    Eriksen is my only Tot attacking coverage and no City coverage atm

    1. ILOVEBAPS
      • 12 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      I replied on last page.

    2. Phil Dagger ⭐
      • 7 Years

      B if you had to choose 1

    3. MTPockets
        7 years, 1 month ago

        B of those

    4. John t penguin
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      how many people have
      ibra kane lukaku
      which one are you selling for aguero ?

      1. ILOVEBAPS
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Lukaku

        1. John t penguin
          • 9 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          and buying back?

          1. ILOVEBAPS
            • 12 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            Yes. If I had Kane however I'd trade him out instead.

      2. Phil Dagger ⭐
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Selling Lukaku and buy back
        Most probably

      3. The Man Pastore
        • 9 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        i have all 3 and dropping Kane, will get him back for GW29

      4. ⚽️ Dingo ⚽️
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Kane. Buying back 29. Can see Everton game being a low score game.

    5. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 1 month ago

      Jones to Stones for -4?

      1. Dreams
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Hello there. Do it.

      2. GoonerByron
        • 12 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Suppose it depends if Jones is fit to play or not..

      3. Phil Dagger ⭐
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Just because you are transferring out Jones yes

      5. Sess!
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 1 month ago

        Stones or St Ones, 1,1,1,1,1

      6. MTPockets
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Stones a pain to own, an fpl sore.

          Thanks all - it does seem a bit frying pan/fire doesn't it 🙂 Only Man City defender I can afford unfortunately 🙁 Might just leave it 🙂

          1. TOBY1
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            I have stones from weeks past but personally I'd give it a go.

            I reckon he will get 1 clean sheet out of 2...

            When you look at the teams he's playing...

            1. Now I'm Panicking
              • 9 Years
              7 years, 1 month ago

              Him playing both games is my concern though. Hmmm.

        Costa or Zlatan Out for Aguero?

        1. Dreams
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Costa

          1. Squashed

            I don't have my WC left... so therefore if i believe Chelsea will beat United in FA cup i should Hold Costa as he will have DGW... or is that overthinking?

        3. UnitedFan
          • 8 Years

          Costa

          Fernandinhno

        8. Gnu
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 14 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Fernandinho is not a hollywood move as you've guessed by the reaction however not as crazy as some make out especially at that price.
          If you fancy it, go for it. With Peps rotation and Citehs fixtures noone bar none knows who will play both fixtures - Fernandinho is as good as any and pops up with the odd goal although not so much under Pep.

        9. TOBY1
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          Pep really likes Fernandinho but he's struggling to find a place for him in current setup...

          He has played him at left back recently.

          Game time might not be 180 mins and even if it is he won't be playing a desirable position imo

          How about Mannone to Willy for a -4? Pickford is my other keeper.

          1. Dreams
            • 7 Years
            7 years, 1 month ago

            I think no. Not for a hit.

          2. UnitedFan

            No

            Knowing Pep he could. Ring bravo back in. Would be madness but not beyond the realms of posisbility.

        8. KingOllie
          • 8 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          A) ibra -> kun
          B) Eriksen + Lukaku -> King + Aguero
          C) Sanchez + lukaku -> sterling + kun (lose a lot of money)

        9. Miguel Sanchez
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 7 Years
          7 years, 1 month ago

          First to three:

          A) Lukaku to Aguero
          B) Philips to Sterling
          C) Lukaku and Philips to Aguero and Sterling (-4)
          D) Alli and A.Carroll to Aguero and Sterling (-4)

            • 12 Years

            D. Andy is too much of a doubt week to week and Luka is needed next GW.

            D for me

            D but if Phillips injured your hand will be forced and I'd just do B. Don't see any value ditching Lukaku only to get him straight back again next week.

            1. Miguel Sanchez

              OK - D it is, however, will wait on the outcome of Philips scan
