Our first members’ article of the week takes a look back at the four fixtures that comprised a somewhat reduced Gameweek 28.
Bournemouth’s hat-trick hero is placed under the microscope as his transfer bandwagon picks up pace. We also cast an eye over Liverpool’s latest source of midfield returns and check up on a Swansea defender whose eye for goal continues to reap the rewards.
It's no pre-amble but it's my second favourite article of the week.
Don't you have to be a member to be able to read it?
It's my favourite introduction to an article of the week
This, it's my 3rd favourite article if the week.
Any changes required? 1FT with zilch ITB.
Pickford
Alonso - Smith - Coleman
Mane - Siggy - Sane - Alli
Lukaku - Carroll - Aguero
Jaku - Funes Mori - Evans - Capoue
Any suggestions welcome... I'm tempted to save.
Thanks!!
looks good
You wouldn't get King in if you were me?
im not tempted tbh, and I wouldn't want to take out any of your mids
Bournemouth have difficult fixtures coming up, you'll only get some worth of him for a short period.
Evans or FM to Yoshida to start working toward DGW players and to add a little $itb
This.
Gtg this week?
Pickford
Alonso Baines Coleman
Alli Sanchez Pedro Mane King
Lukaku Costa
Boruc McAuley Mee Anichebe
Have pressers confirmed Baines is ok to start this GW?
Good read, the last section in particular 😀
The first two paragraphs are exquisite.
True!
play Barnes and avoid the hit....:)
Haha 🙂
doesn't feel right playing him every week tho at his price
No I wouldn't play him every week
I didn't believe it
Until I read it
how about, Baines Coutinho Llorente ➡ Walker Barkley Costa for a -8?
Wait for news. Maybe...
Won't sell baines ahead of hull at home for a hit
he's just been such an nuisance to own. Walker has been waiting for too long to get into my team tbh
Anybody not getting King in? Any reason why?
Fixtures after this GW
ik, but hasn't he shown that he can score against the big boys, esp with penos
You can't rely on him being on pens, after him missing the first, then not taking the second last weekend.
Flash in the pan
I thought he was a flash in the pan until last week. Having said that- not sure I would get him in now unless money makes it impossible to get Alli or Sanchez or Hazard.
I'm not sure he belongs in a category anywhere near those three...
I'm not getting him. Enough money made in the first half of the season to have Sigurdsson as 4th mid.
King is a 5th mid
Feeling a little more relaxed on Llorente, dead leg or not - happy with my 3-5-2 this week so he's benched anyway and axed next week for Gabi.
next week is an ideal fixture for Fernando
Its good, but Gabi's next two (BOU, CPL) plus 2 future dgw's is more attractive to me.
Benched against Bournemouth ! I think I'll be playing him if fit. I'm with you on Gabbiadini though, one of Llorente or Carroll is going for him next week.
Thinking Kun for Gabbi next week to free up money for Sanchez; would have Kaku Costa and Gabbi
Neon Wolf to get beat?
Yes I think Illuminous Panda will win
I think it'll be Willoughby Court
Triple captain Allen this week, eh? Great advice FFS, supported by quality statistics.
I don't follow
That's cause you don't have access to the Members article.
do you non-members have a separate article or something? 😛
XD
Time to call it a day for Pulis' defensive assets? Their fixtures are horrendous
I think so...
yep, looking at Brunt ➡ Valencia/Walker
I have McCauley. Swap to walker worth a hit...?
I would, esp if you are struggling to filed 3 decent defenders this week
Other two are Baines and Alonso, so waiting on Baines for doing anything. But very tempted.
Maybe next week for me... already took hit to go Kane to Costa. Have Coleman Alonso Baines for this week at defense. Macauley to Valencia or Walker next week.
Who do you expect to score more points this week? 😀
A) Lukaku(HUL)
B) Sanchez(wba)
A, esp if Alexis plays lw
A.
A
Cheers
Anyone know why Lewis Cook at BOU isn't playing? I know he was injured for a while but he's not flagged now. The lad is talented.
Wilshere is struggling to get regular starts and he's definitely behind him in the pecking order.
In a 3-5-2 atm ,with Barnes, Kaku and Llorente. What to do after this week?
A - Switch to 3-4-3 and change Barnes to Gabbi
B - Get Costa and/or Gabbi in for Kaku and/or Llorente, stay 3-5-2
C - Nothing
heard some self serving, paranoid drivel in my time from jose but he's outdone himself with todays press conference. Chooses to defend Paul Pogba from perfectly legitimate criticism from people who watch football and who know that he is not playing anywhere neat to his full potential by stating that he has come from a poor background and now he's not poor.
wow. thats unique. there is no other story like that in football.
Same old same old from Jose.
The tabloids lap it up
A) Aguero to Costa and Firmino to Sanchez (-4)
B) Sterling to Alli.
Heaton
Alonso / Baines / Funes Mori
Mane / Firmino / Sterling / Sigurdsson
Aguero / Lukaku / Llorente
Jaku / McAuley / Maguire / T. Carroll
1ft. 1.8itb
neither of those
whats the reasoning behind getting rid of kun?he has better form than costa
there will be goals galore in that liverpool game
C) Save
Depending on Llorente injury I could turn him into Defoe or Deeney.
Which move would you make? I have 1 FT and 6.3m ITB.
A. Llorente to Gabbiadini;
B. Mane, Siggy or King to Sanchez; or
C. D. Fletcher to Alli?
Unfortunately I am a little sort for D. Fletcher to Sanchez.
After all...would you have Alexis or Coutinho this week ?
Coutinho
Rly?
Alexis. Would you have Alexis or Alli?
That's the hard one ! I think around 50/50...
Yep. What to do with Coutinho...
Alex
Sane to Sanchez for a hit?
No,
GW30 FT
Not great fixture that week,
For GW 31 I mean
Possibly
llorente starting?
llorente > defoe (-4)
maybe, maybe not
square one
Still unknown. Latest article I could find: http://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/latest-swansea-citys-trio-injury-12745108 "...They [Llorente, Naughton, Olsson] did not take part in training on Tuesday, with the squad then undergoing a recovery session on Wednesday."
CHeers!
lets do a late one on sat
Think I'll just transfer a mid & ignore/bench him for a week if necessary.
Best mid for upto 6.3? Thinking King or Mirallas
you think like a king
Martin Olsson out of Swedens qualification squad. Won't make it in time according to Swansea medical team.
- Sweden presser
Problem with a ligament in the foot.
heres my team:
Pickford
Walker - Baines - McCauley
Mane - Sigurdsson - Hazard - Sterling
Carrol - Lukaku (C) - Defoe
Bench: Foster - Holebas - Capoue - Kingsley
Looking at playing 3-4-3 this week. I got 1 FT and 2m in the bank. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Sane > Sanchez / Hazard for free?
How sure are we Son is going to start?
75%?
What are Poch's other options - Janssen? Alli oop?
Played when Kane was out last time too
Do I need to wildcard this team guys?
Pickford Jaku
McCauley Cedric Holebas Robertson Funes Mori
Siggy Firmino Sterling Mane De Roon
Llorente Aguero Lukaku
Hope not. Quite similar to mine.
Hello.
Whom do you consider to be the best defender with a DGW for £4.7m or less?
Thank you!
Mawson, Davies short term, maybe Morgan longer term?
Swansea doesn't have any doubles or have I gotten it wrong?
Right. I didn't read the Q.
Yoshida
Pogba needs a rest. He has way too many minutes in his legs (approx 3500 minutes and we are still in March).
RIP Kane
Coutinho to Sanchez worth doing ? Or save FT ?
For FT... definitely do it IMO
