Our first members piece of the week delves into the data from Gameweek 17. Everton and Leicester’s frontmen arrive under our analytical eye, as do United and Southampton’s toils up top, whilst we also turn to midfield and set our sights on Chelsea, Stoke and Villa.
What would you do in terms of transfers here? I want to replace Richards, probably with Dann. My problem is McCarthy, who do I bring in for him? I was thinking Lloris but Tottenham's immediate fixtures after Norwich aren't great. Adrian maybe? I want good, strong options throughout my squad for this busy period. 4.5 in the bank.
De Gea, McCarthy
Alderweireld, Dawson, Bellerin, Moreno, Richards
Ozil, Ramsey, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Barkley
Vardy, Lukaku, Ighalo
Hennessey a good choice for u?
If I wasn't going for Dann maybe. Not sure I want to double up.
Butland?
Desperate for a bit of guidance at a crucial stage in the season. So I have 2FT and £4.4m in the bank... and I don't know what the fluke to do.
Butland, Pantilimon
Kolarov, Toby, Huth, Moreno, Cedric
Ozil, KDB, Mahrez, Wanyama, Barkley
Kane, Lukaku, Vardy
I'm thinking Moreno, Cedric to Kosc & Ward which should sort the defence out but I am worried that Kolarov may well be sidelined during the festive period.
Any ideas?
Help appreciated
Defence - Moreno/Cedric >> Cresswell/Dann
Or Kos and Ward good transfer imo
just swap cedric to a palace defender
I'd change Wanyama and Moreno/Cedric from that lot.
1 FT, 0.5 itb. What would you do with this team?
De Gea, Schmeichel
Monreal, Kolarov, Alderweireld, Francis, Dawson
De Bruyne, Mahrez, Deulofeu, Ozil, Bolasie
Kane, Lukaku, Vardy
Thanks 🙂
I have a very similar team but Coutinho instead of Bolasie. I'm doing Deulofeu for Alli and considering Aguero for Kane but I'm very behind in my mini league
Anyone tempted to bring in Aguero as a template breaker?
Your risk
Yes to this!

Arsenal's taking place now, think Wenger was a bit late or something 🙂
Cheers.
Oh I didn't see your post, only logged on recently. Did say 'incase Presser timings haven't been posted...'
No worries bud, they missed the Hulk!
I hope I get 80+ score this week
Mahrez bolasie del Wally ozil
Kun vardy lukaku
AOA .Oh pls , FPL gods shower me with pointsI'm probably going to use AOA as well...
Nice , I hope I get 5 points more then you
who are you captaining ?
Kun
Bench Bertrand(ARS) ahead of Moreno yes?
Yes
Yes.
Cheers
Best VVD replacement?
A) Dann
B) Dawson
C) Ivanovic
D) TobyToby
C
D
C
Best Arsenal defender for next 3?
Kosc or Bellerin?Kos, he won't be rotated
Tnx. What is wrong with Debuchy? Injured?
Just awful.
Is Ramsey nailed on for good do you think?
Until Cazorla comes back at least.
this
Yes.. But not centrally when Carzola is back.
Yes
Given that Rose is likely to miss one of the next 2 games I think I might back one of my scoutcast shouts and get Williams (or another Swansea) defender in. Reckon he'd be nailed over Xmas and like the fixtures over next 5.
Just a bit worried about not having a 2nd playing keeper with Myhill. SHOULD be okay but you never know over Xmas, maybe even Lindegaard will get a gameAs a Myhill owner, I really think Lindegaard will get a game. I have Butland as well anyway so not worried.
Wouldn't touch Swans defence.
*former Williams' owner
Form over fixtures, surely, and Swansea are terrible right now.
I wouldn't go near Swansea despite their nice fixtures
My team
Butland / Myhill
Dann / Simpson / Nyom / Moreno / Galloway
Silva / Ozil / Willian / Mahrez / Wijnaldum
Giroud / Kane / Lukaku
My opponent's team in the CUP
Myhill / Cech
Clyne / Azpi / Koscielny / Smalling / Kolarov
Wijnaldum / Barkley / Willian / Mahrez / Lanzini
Kane / Giroud / Vardy
What can I do to beat the opponent's team?
ITB. 2.9, 1FT
Suggestions please....
Too much is being made of festive rotation, the only game that there might be rotation for is Monday, thats it.
You've just highlighted the rotation so beaten yourelf in your argument
Good time to play AoA and bench Janmaat for Ighalo?
DDG
Janmaat Bellerin Dawson
Ozil Mahrez Yaya(C) Wijnaldum Alli
Giroud Lukaku
Myhill Ighalo Nyom MorenoMyhill in for DDG and captaining Mahrez***
I'd play AOA
Mathieu Flamini has never lost a Premier League game at The Emirates.
Played: 52
Won: 36
Draw:16
Lost: 0Great.
Wait, that would've been at Highbury still (despite saying Emirates...)
Highbury?
DDG (Henn)
Moreno Bellerin Dawson (Bertrand, Simpson)
Ozil Mahrez Coutinho Barkley (Tettey)
Lukaku Kane Ighalo
1FT, £7.6ITB
A) Bertand to Toby
B) Coutinho to a City mid (no City cover vs SUN)
C) Tettey to a City mid and play AOA.
D) Kane to Kun
E) Other
What do you think folks?
CheersI'd play Simpson ahead of Moreno; Leicester are clear favourites in that game IMO. B) to Silva/KDB I think.
I'm really tempted to sell Tettey to KDB and play AOA, as I have all that money ITB.
Actually that'll be a good idea. Then if there's Christmas rotation next GW, you'll have a strong sub. Go for it!
Thanks as always mate!
C
Which one?
A) Gosling > Ramsey/Bolasie & Vardy > Ighalo / Giroud
B) Vardy> Giroud & Wolls > Sagna
C) Kane > Aguero & Gosling > Deli Alli
Ps. can you like my facebook page 1k betting challenge 🙂
Nearly 100 points behind in mini league...6.5itb. Do I ..
A....Delofeou to Ramsey and forget kun til after Xmas.
B....Kane to kun and captain kun..
Team is
Ddg
Kolorov dier Dawson Moreno oshea
Ozil mahrez kdb Delofeou drinkwater
Kane ighalo lukakuOr do I even do Kane and Delofeou to kun and Ramsey for a hit?
Nah,,,
I would... Waiting on news of Aguero fixtures and might take the hit
Delofeou to Ramsety and then your good to go, maybe look at the defense. Wouldnt trust Moreno or Oshea if kolorov is rotated
similar position so i think in order to catch up i need to go Kun.
Play
A) Delofeou
B) AlliB
B
Cheers lads!
i wouldn't rule out Bony starting, you know.

Won't certainly start after saying things like that in public
Man City can't afford to leave Sergio out because Wilfred had a moan.......they need all the points they can get
Defender decision:
1) Moreno
2) Nyom
3) AOA playing Gosling home to Palace2)
Ben Dinnery @BenDinnery · 2m2 minutes ago
Remains a doubt. Hazard is yet to train fully.Pulled the trigger Hazard ➡ Ramsey last night.
Did this 5 mins ago.
Good man. 🙂
Did it last week
You kept him when Chelsea played bad and shipped when they showed signs of improvement?
Duh
Hazrd is dropping in price...the last straw for me
That's the point. I don't think he'll start this GW.
That's the point as in Pedro, Oscar, Willian looked good so can't see Hazard starting immediately ahead of any of them this GW even if he is fit. And Ramsey looks much better pick anyway with 3 plum fixtures.
Butland
Dier Alderweireld Koscielny
Mahrez(c) Barkley Ozil Ramsey
Lukaku Aguero(vc) Kane
Hennessey Ward King Simpson
Lots of interesting captain options this week, Mahrez Kun Ozil Lukaku all good options. Probably overthinking it a little due to being first cup week. Lukaku seems a safer bet.
Current team :
Butland
Alderweireld, Bellerin, Dawson
Mahrez, Ozil, Ramsey, KDB
Kane, Lukaku, Vardy
Subs: De Gea, Barkley, Ward, Bertrand
Any pressing concerns or save transfer this week?Looks good, maybe Berty to a better defender but its not a real issue right now, should be good to save 🙂
Hi lads,
I need your thoughts on this. My team:
Myhill (Hennessey)
Kolarov, Alder, Bellerin (Smalling, Bertrand)
KDB, Mahrez, Ozil, Coutinho (Deulofeu)
Kane, Vardy, Lukaku
2FT; 0,7ITB
1. Coutinho out - Bolasie in
2. Bertrand out - Dann in
3. Other?
Appreciate your opinion. Thanks!Coutinho > Ramsey/walcott?
Good options. Thanks!
Tempted to {C} Ramsey...
Same here...
I can see a 0-0 in that game...
No way
- New Article Posted
Hi guys
Kolarov. Toby. Moreno. Wolly. Richards
KDB. Ozil. Ramsey. Mahrez. Alli
Kane. Lukaku. Ighalo
Thinking Richards to Bellerin & then starting Kola, Toby & Bellerin this week.
Yet or nay?Which one?
A) Gosling > Ramsey/Bolasie & Vardy > Ighalo / Giroud
B) Vardy> Giroud & Wolls > Sagna
C) Kane > Aguero & Gosling > Deli Alli
Hi guys, I'm new to FPL, I'm loving it. Ranked 500k as of now. I need your advices here, I don't have Kolarov cause I always thought he would be swapped with Clichy... he's such an attacking potential!! What would you recommend? Bring on or wait and see?
wait, no point on getting him for Christmas period when he will definitely miss a game out of 3.
