Our first members article of the week analyses a number of key statistics from the previous round of fixtures. We cast an eye over Tottenham, Newcastle and Man City’s midfield and strikers and also assess Watford’s out-of-sorts attack as the Hornets struggle for a cutting edge.
Which is better?
A. Zouma > Baines
B. Arnautovic > Barkley
Also Captain who?
1. Kane
2. Kun
3. KakuB3
B2

i would say A. because i think they will keep CSs in the next two games. and you know Baines.
Want to ask the same Q on (c). Currently on 3 myself.A2

Just bought Howard for his favourable home games to cover Butland for Stoke's tough games. Found out that they rotate well till GW 28. But is the combo too expensive? I got Butland at 4.5 though.
Butland + whoever gets the nod for CPL?
Butland + any?Just a pointer, Butland's kept a fair number of CS in "tough" games. I have stuck with Butland-nonplayingGK since GW7 and till now Butland has more than exceeded my expectations.
Same was with me as I had Foster/Myhill and later did not sold Foster when he got injured. Myhill scored more in tough games including 18-pointer vs ManUtd
Last season I mean
Which goalkeepers would you pick? Have 10.1 to spend between the two.
Defence is:
Jagielka, Dier, Simpson, Daniels, MonrealLots have Butland, so maybe someone different.
De Gea + who?Forster and Hennessy
'Lots have Butland'.
All the more reason to have Butland. This season is less about punts, more about getting the solid point-winners which are there.Unless you're chasing a ML titlte and 60 points behind. Then you need differentials 🙂
2FT. Which transfer?
(A) Hennessey to Rudd/Elliot/Pickford
(B) Myhill to Fabianski/Schmeichel/Boruc
(C) KDB to Silva/Firmino/Barkley
(D) Wanyama to Stanislas/BarrySimilar story here.
Maybe C to Silva as I don't trust the latter 2. I'm considering Wij as well for GW25.
Burning the FT is worth considering too.May as well do D if I'm going to burn it. Wij is an interesting option.
you're probably right there
Pickford :O
Who the hell......PLayed last 2 games for SUN. 4.0 mil
Seems to be the number one Sunderland keeper...
Bench one please?
A) Evans
B) Shawcross
C) MorenoTough between Shawcross and Moreno. Leicester have not been scoring much lately.
Liverpool should have a chance of a clean sheet but they will probably manage to mess it up againB
C. B covers high ownership Butland.
B
Ozil, mahrez, eriksen, arnie, gosling
Seriously considering gosling against sunderland this week.
Who to bench?
Any thoughts..?Arnie if you must. I'd start Arnautovic tough, expecting an open game.
Arnie over mahrez?
Never bench Mahrez
I sold him a couple of weeks ago, will I go to hell?
not for me to answer.
could be.
Any major weak points in this team? Have 2 FTs. Would ideally like to hold my WC incase a crisis strikes (my GW8 WC has served me very well).
I thought of removing Browning this week but don't need to as the other 4 will suffice. Will only do it if no other use for a FT.
Want to remove Moreno but waiting for a possible DGW.
Any point biting the bullet on Kane now? Ighalo -> Kane not possible. Haven't owned Kane all season, everytime I have holded off him it's worked out good (except last week)
Butland (Schwarzer)
Dawson Moreno Alderweireled (Dann Browning)
Payet KdB Mahrez Ozil (Alli)
Aguero Lukaku IghaloHave the qualification details for the FFS Cup and Members' Cup been posted yet?
should be in the next 12 hours or so
Wait for the article 🙂
Thanks. This is the first time I've entered it, so I don't wanna miss out on any of the details
Nice score and rank.
Lady luck is smiling on me again, and FFS is helping a lot as well
All signs pointing to Kane (C) being the best pick this week.
What signs?
What signs are they?
His attacking stats, Palace waning, City and Everton with an eye on their second leg in the C1C next Wednesday.
That's what you think.
i agree
What happens in the summer time with this place, does it become a graveyard? Then again with the euros I guess it'll stay busy?
Euro fantasy...
It will certainly quieten down a lot despite the Euro's
Will you hold my hand and keep me company?
There will be enough of us, don't you worry.
Which two goalkeepers would you pick? Have 10.1 to spend between the two.
Defence is:
Jagielka, Dier, Simpson, Daniels, Monreal
I know lots have Butland, but thinking of De Gea + someone?Butland and either Foster or Forster, unsure on rotation.
cech?
1,2,3
Kevin De Bruyne fixtures.
23rd West Ham
27th Everton (C1C)
2nd Sunderland
6th Leicester
Surely KDB will be rested at some point? It makes sense to rest him during an away game since he is unlikely to perform.
West Ham this week or Sunderland.
Thinking KDB -> Firmino. Good idea?
Thanks.Besides KDB, who do you have from MCity cover?
I am thinking of that same move Eden. Though I am waiting as I may need to swap out Myhill 🙁
Whom would you play out of these three:
A) Wollscheid (lei)
B) Souare (TOT)
C) Williams (eve)A
Thanks.
A
Any UFPL players in atm?
Need to bench two of these guys:
1) Azpil (ars)
2) Bellerin (CHE)
3) Aldi (cry)
4) Simpson (STK)
5) Smith (sun)
Currently have Azpil and Smith warming the pine, correct?yeah or simpson instead of smith. Much of a muchness
thanks pal
I'd bench Simpson and Smith.
Which one for a -4 hit?
A. Alderweireld to Baines
B. Cresswell to Baines
C. Koscielny to Baines
D. Payet to Barkley
E. None
Please help.e

E in a big way.
Morning, everyone. Most of you had a good week, I guess.
I need some help with my team here.
Butland, (Ruddy),
Dawson, Bellerin, Moreno, (Huth, Nyom),
**de Bruyne, Ozil, Alli, Mahrez,(Barry),
Kane, Aguero, Lukaku.
2 FT, £1.0m.
***I know my defence needs work, but all three I am playing have a good fixture this week (plus Dawson has really good matches to look forward to). So I'm maybe considering KDB to Payet this week itself (KDB playing too deep, I want Payet anyway). Any other suggestions?mahrez to payet? Moreno to any other living defender?
I'd hold off on Payet for another week. Nothing much needs doing though and with 2FTs you need to do something. What about Ruddy -> Howard to cover Butland's tough fixtures? They rotate pretty well before you will likely WC.
I bet number 7 is popular for FFS users
http://mentalfloss.com/article/73913/do-you-use-one-2015s-worst-passwords?However I don't get number 18?
Everyone knows the best password is "incorrect". Then every time you get it wrong the computer says "your password is incorrect"
oldies never die 🙂
Genius 😆
Can anyone please link me Mark's team ? 🙂
Just my luck. On the losing end in both the highest scoring match for the gw and the highest scoring match of the season so far in one of my money leagues.
http://www.fantasy-challenge.co.uk/super20_p1.htmlAnyone know the best way to complain to the BBC about one of its programs?
Does points of view still exist? If it's content you think is inappropiate the tv watchdog not the bbc is your best bet. Otherwise:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctrust/contact_us/making_a_complaint.htmlIt is indeed content, specifically the most recent Big Question.
I only watch football focus and motd on tv now. Got used to living abroad with no english tv, never got back in the habit. Still abroad but Ireland so we get the bbc and itv.
I do watch netflix though, does that count as tv?Best decision, I try and watch the odd politics and philosophy show but a good phew have started having hateful questions under the guise of willing intellectual debate and it's annoying to see it come from what should be an impartial BBC.
I'd say so.I used to love question time and the one that followed with Andrew Neil, I forget it's name. Great shows.
Morning DZ, best move here?
A) VVD -> Baines
B) Alli -> Barkley
C) VVD & Alli -> Jags & Baines
D) VVD -> Targett*
* enables DDG/Alli -> Elliot/Sanchez next week (i.e. getting Sanchez without losing KDB)
DDG
Bellerin, Moreno, Simpson
KDB, Mahrez, Payet, Alli
Aguero, Lukaku, Kane
Hennessey, VVD, Wolly, Surman
Bank 2.3m, 2FTProbably A, no need to ditch B as can bench, C looks like 1 mid and 1 def to 2 def's and D is very sideways and could end in tears.
Ooops, C) is meant to say VVD & Alli -> Jags & Barkley
D) is really just to generate cash to avoid losing KDB. I'd rarely (if ever) start Targett.Oh, and my bench is pretty weak so benching Alli doesn't look too great an option.
No worries, just thought I'd check 🙂
If I you were to do D best to check when you want that SOU def as I'd fear Targett may be out by the end of the season.I kinda think Bellerin, Wolly, Moreno & Simpson can cover me most weeks (with the exception of next week), although I'm not sure if it's worth getting a likely dud just to keep KDB
Just A for me ... keep Alli for another couple of weeks, he'll return when you're least expecting!
+1
Yeah, I know what you mean. But I'm wondering if double Spurs attack is a good idea given they are away for 3 of the next 4 games, especially with Dembele back (he seems to negate Alli's output a little)?
I know what you mean about Alli ... i'd still hold strong on him. The attraction of having Barkley for two plumb fixtures is hard to ignore ... but if you have Lukaku and Baines you're well covered. If Everton end up with a blank in a few weeks it's one less thing to worry about also!
I would not sell Sou defence. Seems they are a much better unit with Forster back.
Question for my Draft.
Mata or Fabs?Fab
Fabregas, its a gamble but why not in draft.
Hoping he can find his form again in this half of the season
Btw if anyone wants free streaming on their phone (not sure if works in the UK) download "MyTotal TV"
Don't pay for the service it offers
Sky Sports News free streamThere are loads to choose from. but this will probably get deleted. They don't allow these posts on here.
Whoops
Play 3 out of :
Dann ( SPURS) Alderweireld (Cry ) Van Anholt (BOUR) Cresswell (MCI) Sagna (West Ham)PVA, Cresswell Sagna
Toby, PVA, Sagna
Cap lukaku or kun?
I'm on Lukaku but that's mainly because the guy I'm chasing owns Kun and not Romelu.
Aguero!
Lukaku for me.
Bench one:
A) Payet (MCI)
B) Mahrez (STK)
C) Ozil (CHE)Mahrez.
I have a funny feeling Mahrez is going to troll us all with a massive score this week ... bench at your peril.
Having said that ... I would suggest you think about the AOA chip if you haven't used that.Used it already. My gut is telling me to bench Payet.
Three goal attempts in three weeks. Is Igloo the ultimate troll?
absolutely
he solo destroyed my season until I got him and he is fecked nowI dunno but what I know is that Newcastle are the worst defensive unit in the league ..keeping Igloo for 1 last week personally
And even then I have 5 decent midfielders...so will bench him whenever required
Yep! Got him 2 weeks ago. 🙁 Sorry
From a baseline BPS perspective, anyone know who is the best EVE defender to get?
Baines has so much more attacking returns up his sleeve IMHO!
Sorry ... fullbacks seem to be getting the BAPs this year, Baines is the man with all those successful dribbles, crosses and his defensive clearances are as good as the rest!
You are wrong 😉
Jagielka
I'll go now 🙁
Thanks for this
