Our usual post-Gameweek members’ article is up next as we check in on some of the standout performers across the previous weekend’s ten matches.
There’s cause for optimism in north London after Spurs and Arsenal hit a combined nine goals, while our new expected goals data offers plenty to ponder at Manchester City.
Elsewhere, Man United and Chelsea’s Belgian big-hitters have struggled to convince as Watford’s Samba star continues to catch the eye.
how much will it tell us though
In reality, not a lot but it will prompt many...
I think the only way it'll tell us a lot is if Jesus is mostly rested and Aguero plays 70+ minutes. Otherwise anything could happen in the weekend.
I’m just hoping to see Silva on the bench..
Brought him in this week as my only City player and even though he’s considered the safer option, I still have that nagging doubt...
Bournemouth middlesborough? I think Daniels will start
I hope not as a Daniels owner who’s done his transfers already... 😉
Haha yea
But i guess , Aguero Sterling Jesus to start
I will help you
Aguero,Jesus,Sterling will all start
Sane and Silva on bench
KDB too
That would be magic..!!
Most who cares one actually
Anyways Sunday we are going to get fooled by pep
Guaranteed..!
Form tables are up

Last time I looked at those I got Laca in instead of Jesus. Never again.
I find myself doing worse listening to the scoutcasts 😆
I've gone back to the old fashioned watching football. It's much easier to do now Sky are showing 30min repeats of all the matches they cover. Takes five hours, so not everyone has the time.
cheers TL
Ideal scenario is if Davies plays easier Prem matches and Rose gets given big games and Champions League, can then accommodate him in a 5 man defence
That could have been a scenario in before this season
But this?He will either play those tougher matches or they will randomly be played through the season
We'll see I guess, but I'm hoping this happens
Agreed. I think this could happen aswell
I think it’s other way around. I reckon Rose will play easier games to get his fitness sorted. Davies is so good this season that I feel Rose could struggle to gain a spot
Why did Davies not play at the weekend then?
Do you not like to watch or read when Poch speaks? He was still ill and not 100%.
This indeed.
Davies spot to lose atm but rose may very well get a run out to get a healthy competition going on
I'm tempted to switch to trip eventually but Aurier is annoying
I’m sticking with Bavies for sure. Will monitor few weeks. Poch still might be fukked off to Rose tbh. You never know
I probably will for 1 more week but it's pretty necessary to have a starter for 5.7
how about below 2 changes (-8)
1) oriol>salah
lukaku/jesus>cheap striker
or
2) 3.9 def>otamendi
lukaku/jesus>cheap striker
Too expensive imo
Ok this is my team right now. I already spent my transfer Lukaku to Aguero.
What to do now..?
Any suggestions for a -4 or -8..?
Or just hold off and let it play out..?
Elliot
Kola Davies Naughton
Zaha, Hazard, Sterling Groß
Jesus, Morata, Aguero
Nordfelt Carroll Hunemeir Mbemba
Any mitb? maybe bring someone in for Hunemeier or Mbemba for a hit as a long term move, also means you can bench Naughton and have cover for Davies
0.4 in the bank. Good idea but is that worth a hit..? Probably with Davies sort of in limbo yes?
I think so, could be down to 10 men if Davies does't start & needs to be sorted out soonish anyway. Consider Yedlin, rotates well with Swans def
Yeah I can do Yedlin or Dunk if i drop Mbemba. Which of those two? I have Elliot in nets.
Would prefer Dunk to spread the risk, but clashes at gw17 and 20, yedlin doesn't clash until gw20. So probably Yedlin.
Rest of the team ok or should I be thinking of getting Kane back. I sold him last week of course after having him all season 🙁
Kane is a must for gw11 but the rest of the team is looking fine once you upgrade one of the bench fodder defs
Thanks as always WWKY
No worries pal YNWA
bench one:
a) Davies (mun)
b) Cedric (bha)
c) Mariappa (STK)
d) Mee (NEW)
e) Ritchie (bur)
C
Is RLC to Richarlison worth a hit?
Would play him instead of Suttner/RLC
Yes
Needs an assist minimum.
I probably would. Neither RLC or Suttner started last game.
Cheers! Should have mentioned I've still got the wildcard tho.
I dunno.. Would expect RLC to be in the starting lineup this time..
Jesus & Davies -> Aguero & Ward?
Cheers
Sell Davies but wouldn't recommend the sideways swap of Jesus to Kun. You are just asking for a Pep trolling with any sideways move right now
De Gea
Duffy Trippier Monreal
Silva Erik Hazard Grobb
Lukaku Aguero@ Abraham
Elliot Lowton Surman Mariappa
All set?
spent up
no kane a worry
Lol Grobb.
Looks decent
Can you not kaku to Kane?
at a push not sure who i would lose
What are the chances of Abraham rising 0.2 before end of this game week? i.e next free transfer becomes available.
I have 2 FT to use this week. Set on Dawson > Otamendi & Mhki > Richarlison.
Next week... FT 4.5 striker > Abraham. But I only have 0.1 to spare. So if he rises by 0.2 or more, im screwed.
Should I just take the 4 point hit and make 3 transfers?
nil
Thanks
Mee or Ward?
Ward if you can afford it.
Magic.
Ward.
I have Ward to catch the price rises but Mee offers you more flexibility at his cut price value personally !
Mee
Bottomed last page.
After a couple of disaster captain fails, really need to get this GW right.
So options are:
A-Salah
B- Kun
C- Kane
Or D- Richarlison (Maverick pick)
Currently on C?
loving the grav 🙂
going with Kane (c) here
Cheers dude
Stuck between wildcarding now or waiting till FA Cup weekend.
Problem is, if I wait I’ll get in a few people who would basically make wildcarding redundant.
Current team is:
Fabianski, Ryan
Bavies, Cedric, Francis, Otamendi, Mee
Sterling, Salah, Carroll, Ritchie, Choupo-Moting
Wood, Kane, Lukaku
It's OK, but needs freshening up.
Fabianski/Ryan is a terrible combination.
Disagree with that comment, good combo for fixtures upcoming imo
Hazard and Ladapo TO Richarli and Diouf for free?
Rest of front 8 are Salah, Silva, Sterling, Tarroll, Kane, Vardy.
I am surprised why there is no hot topic on Ben Davies.
Practically all of serious managers have him. Are we seriously gonna still assume he is Poch fav just cuz he is FPL darling?
He was benched for last match even though match fit
Many managers sold him before this weekend. If you are still holding time to get rid!
Worth going for Burnley cover?
Will help me afford Kun for Jesus then
Wanted Oatamendi but Need cash for Kun
The problem is there is no one I want for 5.7.
I'm thinking Trip in but he also has Aurier on his case, annoyingly
Looong gone from my team. I think it's a dead topic, mag to grid - get rid
I think we all know that Poch has four very good full backs for one reason only. He will rotate them. It's only the fact that they've had injuries and bans that we've had picks at all...
Selling this week for a cheapie to fund Jesus>Kun most likely
Mee too :0
Predict the totalt points scored in gw10 by these two combinations:
Eriksen + Atsu
Richarlison + Salah
3 + 3 = 6
5 + 13 = 18
^ This.
Richarlison + Salah to outscore the first two for sure
Yeah, I figure that as well. Just checking the consensus on their totaly points tally to help me decided whether or not to take a 8pt hit.
Romero, Blind, Lindelöf, Smalling, Tuanzebe, Darmian, McTominay, Herrera, Lingard, Rashford, Martial.
McWho?
4.3 mf
The english Iniesta
That spot is taken by Gareth Barry
Gareth is english ronaldo
Jeez last chance for Linelof in Manunited shirt
Did u guys remember how vidic and evra started ? Give the guy a break!
Afternoon gents,
Im looking for 4.5 DEF options.
Mee and Duffy definitely interesting. Nailed and dangerous.
What about the Gomez/Moreno pair? Liverpool defense at home is actually good, but how nailed are they? Which one is more attack oriented?
Cheers,
I have a feeling Daniels can shine...Look at his fixtures after CHE next GW...all green plus his attacking stats are on the rise too..soon to be 4.8mn so perfect shoehorn for cedric/Bavies
Thanks. He is already my Kolasinac replacement for next week! Hopefully 4.8 by then 🙂
Moreno is hell of a lot more attacking and more nailed than Gomez. I wouldn't touch Liverpool defence tho
I was sharing your view, but then xGconceded and shots in the box conceded at home give a different perspective. Not sure anymore.
Moreno will be the one if I go Liverpool. thx!
Moreno is more attacking, but has a long history of disappointment.
Gomez is a bap machine.
Haha, yes Moreno trolled me the past 2 seasons! Cheers
Well, Moreno is 2nd in your table, isn't he?
(Bonus burglars)
TAA will be back this weekend
Any fellow managers taken a -8pt hit this week?
raise your hands!
Before I wildcarded
I could only have dreamt of having a wildcard - did mine back in GW5 lol ^^
On a -4
Jones on the bench
Perfect
what site for fast lineups?
What transfer(s) would you suggest?
I am thinking about offloading Alonso, BDavies, Mbemba, Vardy
Pope
Alonso - Otamendi - Cedric
Coutinho - Sterling - Richarlison - Choupo-Moting
Kane - Jesus - Vardy
Bench: Elliot - RLC - BDavies - Mbemba
2 FTs
bank: 0.0
Callum Wilson starts, great to see
Is a bit worth sorting out this defence?
Davies Jones naughton hegazi (mbemba)
Hit*
Phil Jones benched
Glorious
Nice, worth keeping despite the tales of woe
5mnish Def from the best defence is season keeper bar long term injury
Great for weekend
If Bailly returns too it will help Kun cappers get a rise out from Kane ones
Is Sanchez worthwhile at the moment given upturn in performance and fixtures?
too expensive...
Not worth that price tag without penalties. Also he not playing for a title challenging side this season
Nah
No sanch or Haz
they can slag right off
Don't know why so many are trying to get Daniels in. He's poop, Chelsea next too. Sell sell sell!
Too obvious
Ffs legend apparently.
Thanks, mate 🙂
Jones!
Abraham rested
Nordfeldt; Rangel, van der Hoorn, Mawson, Olsson; Ki, Mesa, Clucas; Routledge, Ayew, McBurnie.
Good, cant wait for him to go michu on arsenal
Macey, Debuchy, Elneny, Holding; Nelson, Coquelin, Wilshere, Maitland-Niles; Walcott, Iwobi; Giroud.
Debuchy !!!.....is he still a thing at Arsenal...jeez...
He played all EL games too I think
Injured in 5 mins
That's 12 players
Current defence:
XXXX- XXXX - Mee - Cresswell (to Daniels next GW)- Mbemba
Have 10.4m for the 2 spots.
Exact money for Otamendi and Duffy. Is that the best combo for the medium term?
Kiko or Fernandez instead of Duffy?
Sounds interesting, will have a look at them. Cheers!
Sounds decent to me. Personally I'd prob spend cash elsewhere but if it's lying around the house why not...
I would rather do that too, but have Davies and Wimmer (and Cresswell) that are all not guaranteed to start unfortunately! 🙁
6 years, 7 months agoCan’t be long now to the most anticipated team sheet in League cup history....? 🙂
