It’s time for our post-Gameweek members article next as we assess the data from the previous round of fixtures.
Manchester United and Spurs midfielders feature in our analysis, as do Stoke’s weekend goal hero and Newcastle United’s new frontman.
A Burnley centre-half and West Ham wing-back also catch the eye, while we also check in with a pair of two-goal frontmen from Arsenal and Man City.
For sure. Im on a WC and have him in at the moment
Now this is a tricky one:
On Wc:
Elliot
BDavies Jones Cedric D. Luiz
Eriksen Silva Ramsey
Firmino Kane(C) Kaku
Subs: Foster, T Caroll, Chalobah,
*Luiz to Kola next week
So:
A) Cedric Kaku
B) Alonso Morata
Suggestions?
On a wildcard I would avoid having players you plan to take out the following week. Just put kola in now.
Okay and about a and b ? 🙂
B for me
^so much this^ I saw loads of WCs last week that had Lacazette with a plan to bring in Kane this week. Not only did they miss Kane's points, they also have one less transfer to deal with Pogba, Mane etc etc.
Especially true if you're going to waste a transfer just to play Luiz for one week.
Agreed. If I WC (looks like it), I'll put Kola in there and might bench against Chelsea. Although I'm planning on going 4-3-3 as well with 3.9 Hune so might have to start him.
And out of your options, I'd be going B
Yeah but I am a Kaku fan...seems captain material right next to Kane...remember he can be explosive at times... Morata is still being tested.
Being Kaku fan then easy choice. It's just a game and not that big of a difference either way.
Btw now I saw a draft... it seema the only way to get Morata is with Azpi and will need 4.4 reserve midfielders... so Kaku Cedric it is 🙂
Any UCL Fantasy players here? A friend of mine found this post on FB. Any truth to this?
UEFA Champions League Fantasy Football returns today as the matchday one fixtures get under way.
The game was due to launch last week but unfortunately production was pushed back due to technical issues.
In order to be fair to everyone who wants to play UEFA Champions League Fantasy Football this season, scoring will now start on matchday two to give everyone a chance to submit their team.
Matchday one will serve as a 'warm-up round', so pick your team now. There will be unlimited transfers ahead of matchday two.
Good luck!
Your UEFA.com Fantasy team.
This is not the case when I log into my app.
😳
I don't see any such thing when I log in.
What to do here? Ideas appreciated. 0.4 itb
De Gea / Elliot
Cedric Dawson Alonso / Mee 4m
Mkhi Eriksen Mooy Richarlison /TC
Lukaku Kane Chicharito
Cheers
Save FT
Pogba injury is the last straw. Wildcard active for me.
Please let me kniw you thoughts
Foster, elliot
Davies, cedric, jones, löwe, kiko ferminia
Hazard, alli, choupo moting, doucoure, carroll,
Kane, jesus, firmino
Praying that one of those cheap midfielders turns into a joshua king/mahrez
Midfield atrocious
DDG - Elliot
Ake - Kolasinac - Davies - Clark
Alli - Salah - Mooy - Carroll
Kane(c) - Lukaku (0.0 ITB, -4)
(Hunemeier - Pogs - Elliot - Quaner)
So obviously I was a little hasty with the transfers due to the price rises. Pogba is "the" slap on the face. Can I go ahead with this team for this week or should I take a -8 for anyone?
Pog to silva
Thing is, Silva may not score more than 3 points so would it be worth it?
Let's see tonight.. due a goal for 6 matches
That's never how FPL works
Stephens/Pogba > Moreno/Alli for a hit ?
If no funds Pogba -> Mkhi (or you have him already), that looks like a valid option.
Really stuck on what to do - 1FT .4 ITB.
Thoughts very welcome.
Foster/Elliott
Cedric Kola Jones Mee Hunemeier
Mikhi Erik Atsu Willian Carroll
Kane Kaku Bobby
A. Atsu>Gross
B. Willian + Cedric< Bavies+Brady (or Gross)
C. Hune >Mbemba (just for when he's back)
D. Save
Save
Yep feels about right to save and wait and see - thanks
Save
A) Fab + Aguero
B) Morata + Silva
Which is a better choice. Thanks
City options are a real nightmare under Pep, B seems more secure with silva playing every prem minute so far
Yuck 🙂
Morata
B
Haha.. thanks guys.. morata it is
WC now in play:
A)
Elliot-Speroni
Davies, Jones, Lowe, Alonso, (4 Mn)
Gross, Chalobah, Siggy, Mikhitaryan, Alli

B)
Elliot-Speroni
Davies, Jones, Lowe, Rosenior, (4 Mn)
Gross, Chalobah, Siggy, Mikhitaryan, Alli
Kane, Firmino, Kaku and 0.9 Mn ITB
Already used FT on Mané > Eriksen. 1.7ITB.

C
WC:
Fab | Elliot
BDavies | Jones | Ward | Cedric | Gamez
Mkhi | DSilva | Eriksen | Mooy | Carroll
Morata | Kane | Vardy
Thoughts? I know going without Lukaku is dangerous, but Pogba being out does change the dynamic of United a bit.
No Liverpool attack?
No Mane left for Liverpool
Iiii see what you did there.
I'd find a way to get Firmino in for Vardy, but LEI's fixtures are too good to ignore.
Curios why Ward over Mee? I have no clue which one is better, it just seems a lot of people have gone Mee.
Don't like DSilva but I guess he's good place holder for Pogba. I'd find the funds for Mkhi (I'm going Elliot and 4.0)
Take a look again - Mkhi is there 🙂
Which of these looks best:
A) Mane > Salah
B) Mane and Chicharito > Ritchie and Jesus
C) Lukaku, Mane and Chicharito > Firmino/Vardy, Salah and Jesus (-4)
Yoshi is he likely to miss out on weekend or come back into the team?
I heard partly why he didn't play at weekend was due to international fixtures with Japan.
Likely to come back in. Main reason for absence was the long travel, you'd think.
What do you think about Dummett --> Clark?
Quite possibly the dullest transfer possible. Except maybe 4.0 GK to 4.0 GK...
Seriously though Newcastle defenders (if you don't have elliot) seem like a good shout atm
boring but practical
Antonio ➡ Mahrez
Lukaku ➡ Jesus
2FTs
Y / N ?
no from me , have you got no other issues in your team, Antonio & Lukaku don't look like problems if they were in my team
It just feels so boring when pretty mch every owns Kaku
No way. Both good long and short term in any case.
No. Why get rid of Kaku and Antonio?
Hell no
Any advice?
A) Salah & Morata
B) Hazard & Firmino
A purely as we don't know enough about the fitness of the two in B
next week you might get a different answer though
Hi, any thoughts on Joselu as 3rd budget strikers?
Need to replace Chica. (Have Kane & Lukaku)
Thanks.
why do you NEED to replace Chica?
Cause I need funds to replace Heg with Bavies.
As good as any
Beast if you ask me but he wont work out if shifted out in a couple of weeks need to stick for a while
Same dilemma mate..
Thoughts on this WC?
Elliot - 3.9
Davies - Mendy - Maguire - Dunk - Lascelles
Salah - Choupo - Pedro - Chalobah - Carroll
Kane - Lukaku - Jesus
Will play 4-3-3 most weeks, got attacking coverage of City, United, Spurs, Liverpool & Chelsea
Not sure I'd want to play double newcastle, unless your happy with the way the fixytures rotate between Brighton & Newcastle and I wouldn't be confident in the amount of minutes Pedro would get .... and I wouldn't want to rely on a stoke forward...
That front 3 is great, but IMO sucks too much budget from mid & defense
I cant justify dropping any of that front 3 with fixtures coming up plus like most are finding there's nothing in the 5.5-8 price range for midfielders that jumps out.
I wish you luck.. you will definately get goals 🙂
Mendy is a good pick but perhaps get otamendi and upgrade Pedro to Alli if it's possible?
I've tried going 3-4-3 with the same attack check it out a little below.
How's this WC team look:
Lossl,
Davies, Wimmer, Alonso, Mings
Mkhitaryan, Eriksen, Jese
Joselu, Lukaku, Kane
Elliot, Carroll, Mbemba, Doucoure
Thinking Davies/Jese >> Kiko Fernandez/Hazard when Hazard inevitably comes back firing.
3.3 itb btw
wouldn't left that much money ITB. Upgrade Jese for someone better as a placeholder for Hazard and plan ahead how you'd bring him in. I think he's too expensive but it remains to be seen. Really love the guy so might bring him in anyway.
Yeah good shout actually, thanks
Hi, which one is better? Why?
A. Firmino + Groß
B. Joselu + Mkhi + 0.3m
Thanks
A) Groß is gonna be the boy and will outscore Joselu x
B just because gross will be a one week wonder ( love firmino though)
Could I have some thoughts on this #Wildcard side?
Elliot/Gomes
Long/Femenia/Maguire/Jones/Davies
Zaha/Mkhi/Grob/Chalobah/Salah
Kane/Morata/Jesus
1) Krul, Mendy, Naughton - Elliot plays every week, Naughton & Choupo-Moting rotate
2) Lloris, Pieters, Mee - Choupo-Moting plays every week, Lloris great fixtures, Pieters & Mee rotate
A. Dann, Stephens > Wimmer, Davies -4
B. Play Dann + hopefully Stephens and save FT
Will be priced out of A by next week and have Mee to rotate with Wimmer...
A) Daniels (HUD) + Antonio (wba)
B) Bavies (SWA) + Ritchie (STK) -4
A, not close. Daniels good fixture. Find another way to bring in Davies.
Thanks
De Gea, Elliot
Davies, Monreal, Danilo, Cedric (Hunemeier)
Alli, Salah, Pogba (Carroll, RLC)
Lukaku, Jesus, Chicharito
2FT, 0.5 in bank
Want to try to save my WC but my team is going to need some surgery before long.
OPTION 1:
Pogba -> Mkhitaryan, and leave it at that for now.
OPTION 2:
Mini-surgery for a -8 hit. Have exact funds for:
De Gea -> Fabianski
Monreal -> Jones
Pogba -> Mhkitaryan
Chicharito -> Firmino
OPTION 3:
Hit the WC button.
Which do I go for?
option 1 is just fine
i gonna put pogba on my bench because i am very tight with my points 🙂
Good looking team and no way that needs WC.
Keep Monreal. Good fixtures GW6 and 7. I'd do DDG -> 4.0, Pogba -> Mkhi. Gives you options for next week with MIB (still short Chica -> Firmino?)
Alli or Eriksen? I really want Eriksen but the three match ban and 0.2 less is really playing on my mind...
Alli
Alli
If they were even and the ban didn't play a part - Eriksen. But if you need the 0.2 its Alli is a great pick still.
Eriksen won't be subbed of till each game is decided. He will be involved in most Spurs goals.
Eriken still imo, form is better
Which option is better?
A. Lukaku, Chicarito
B. Jesus, Rashford
I think that A is better.
B is better but can't guarantee rashford minutes
because of rashford minutes I think that A is better.
B
A) Willian and Suttner to Choupo-Moting and Ben Davies
or
B) Willian and Lukaku to Salah and Vardy?
Thank you!
Don't sell lukaku
Just did A myself but opted for Brady instead of Choupo
A) Jones
B) Mendy
Mendy
Mendy.. Unless the difference in price can be utilised elsewhwere ?
Mendy
6 years, 7 months agoAnyone else watching Coutinho closely tonight? Differential instead of going from Mane to Salah. Feel Coutinho will be on bench tonight and start vs Burnley on the left wing.
