Up next, we make our regular post-Gameweek assessment of the Opta data for our members.
The improved performances of Alvaro Morata, Jamie Vardy and Raheem Sterling come under close scrutiny, along with Man City’s relentless attack.
We also check out the impact of want-away midfield big-hitters Alexis Sanchez and Philippe Coutinho, before casting an eye over Marcos Alonso’s downturn in output as the Fantasy exodus on him picks up pace.
this week . an arsenal defender . its 50/50 between kola and bell , wait till after europa
Long term probably Davies. Next two gws, one of the Arsenal. I quite like bellerin
rose should be back soon . so id actually say bellerin long term
Absolutely no sign of Rose being back soon. The club have said that for 9 months. They haven't even put a date on when he'll be back in training.
YEYEYE, SOON ONE YEAR PPL SAYING HES BACK SOON sry, capslock
THAT'S QUITE ALRIGHT IT HAPPENS TO THE BEST OF US, see? Sorry about that.
lol
IF Rose were to be back.... Why would he even be guaranteed back in the team? Davies is in super form.
Rose is a headcase too. His yellow card tally is appalling.
Bellers.
Does Sanchez impede Kolas going forward ? Maybe Bellers is the best choice
C
Captain Kane looks a no brainer to me
19 in his last 9 away from home, and he's in that form of his where he looks like scoring whenever he receives the ball.
Lu
Ka
Ku
lukaku vs a bad team.....
Please help! Red arrows the past couple weeks.
Foster
Davies / Kolasinac / Jones
Ritchie / Alli / Mkhi / Ramsey
Lukaku / Aguero / Abraham
Bench: Elliot, Mee, Dunk, T.Carrol
Havent got a FT so any move is for a -4.
A. Ramsey --> Liverpool mid
B. Ramsey --> David Silva
C. Any other suggestions?
You're perfect for this week. Just stick.
Not sure how that team got you a red arrow last week unless you took hits to get it?
ramsey was probably the best player on the pitch against west brom unlucky to not score . why would you move him . brighton home
If you're debating what to do with Firmino, get rid. He's in one of those runs where even an open goal looks hard for him to score, goes through this occasionally.
Yep, I think so too. He'll come good again, but he's struggling a little at the moment. Doesn't ever seem to be given a rest.
he missed one badly last night bad control in front of goal
Problem is - it's Vardy this week or hold for one more and get Morata as part of a double move. Thoughts?
No need to rush, i'd say roll the transfer and reassess next week. At least then you will have more options.
I think Firmino gets one more week. Even KDB delivered assists after everybody sold him because he looked deeper than the wreckage of Titanic.
Ramsey's ownership will be up to 30% by December!
Ramsey's chances of playing will be down to 30% by December!
hes been arsenals most consistent performer
Meant moreso to do with injury not performance..
"Alonso was unlucky" - Mark
Did he watch the game? If anything he was lucky not to be sent off.
Lucky not be sent off but unlucky not to make 60 having got away with it.
I sold Sterling this week, for D.Silva 😕 Was convinced he'd be bench after playing 90 the week before and midweek.
Only turned out to be a 2 point diff plus 4 point hit, but the prospect of having a Man City attacking asset benched vs Palace was too much to take! Going forwards, it looks like D.Silva is the more reliable pick.
Am pleased for Sterling though. IRL, very trusting but from an FPL view, he's been immense this season and doesn't get any credit.
Sterling has gone from underrated to EXTREMELY overrated, which everyone realised, to being underrated again.
yep, he seems a bit of a marmite figure
one of his goals was bogus . the one at bournemouth . but he has been good .
Ha, I went bonkers when that goal went in as we were having a family get together to the banter was flowing. 😀 After I'd stopped jumping around for 5 minutes, I realised he'd then been sent off!!
Don't know where "trusting" cam from... was meant to be frustrating.
Who do you think is mendy's best replacement considering city will no longer play 4 at the back ?
Walker? Bellerin? Williams? Stones? Moses? Luiz?
Already have: kolasinac davies alonso jones
Azpi if possible.
With your defence I'd be tempted by a 4.5 from Burnley.
I'm not sure of your logic... why won't Mendy play against Chelsea as a wingback?
lololol
Mendy injured - out indefinitely..
he's potentially out for a very long time
possibly 9 months according to talksport twitter
long indeed
Ah, he was yellow flagged last time I looked. Cheers, as you were...
Going to WC next week I think so what should I do with my 1FT?! 0 mill in the bank.
Foster
Davies Jones Mee
Eriksen D.Silva Willian Brady
Lukaku Kane(c) Firmino
Elliot; Carroll, Stephens, Hunemeier
Firmino to Rashford (for a game?)
Firm > Vardy
This
a)Not worried about Willian?
b)Think Vardy will score better than Firmino?
Firmino > Rashford, for a 1 week punt, definitely 🙂
I was looking at you doing Willian to Martial as I thought you had 1m ITB, but read it wrong.
considering it... but then rashford rarely scores more than 1
Willian to Mata?
At the IB these moves
Lukaku - Morata
Wood - Vardy
Foster - Krul
For -4
Elliot Krul
Kola Bavies Cedric Sutter Long
Salah Erikson Silva Atsu Tarrol
Kun Morata Vardy
Looks good ppl ?
I do like that..
Not too shabby at all
very nice
Thx alo
These moves madness or borderline genius...... Mahrez + Jesus > Silva + Lacazette (-4).
Foster
Danilo - Daniels - Jones
Alli - Choupo - Mkhi - Mahrez
Jesus - Kane - Vardy
Lascelles - T.Carroll - Rosenoir
Worse, very template ...ZZZZZZzzzzzzz
lol please enlighten me oh wise one
Double Leicester, you're beyond help
Ignore him, he just signs in to insult people. Mahrez to Silva should do, nothing else worth a hit.
cheers mate
Prefer Morata over Laca long term, but good moves otherwise.
I prefer Silva over Mahrez -TBH
Could Mahrez be back on pens following Vardy's miss? Unlikey maybe.
I would hold and have two frees for the international break. Mahrez has a much better fixture than Silva. I'd wait til GW8 before making that move and then you can get Morata instead of Lacazette for Chelsea's fixtures.
Lacazette could potentially be a great move imo. Ben doing well at home, stats are up and they have Brighton at home next...
Foster (Elliott)
Davies, Jones, Daniels (Suttner, Long)
Eriksen, Salah, Mkhi, Richarlison (Carroll)
Kane, Lukaku, Joselu
2FT, £0.8m ITB
Wildcarding next week, so looking to take a punt.
Currently thinking Kolasinac, (Joselu > anyone, Suttner > Kola), and play 4-4-2 this week. Thoughts/suggestions?
play 2:
A) Otamendi
B) Cresswell
C) Naughton
Last 2.
Has anyone figured out a gw8 wildcard that contains all of these players?
If you had to do without 1, who would it be....thanks
Salah
Eriksen
Silva
Kane
Morata
Vardy
Vardy.
But there are no striker options below 8.5m unless I'm missing something....
Probably Salah and bring him back in GW10. Utd & Spurs are not going to give up a lot of chances.
i have them all currently with Lacca instead of Kane
Going without Salah until GW10 with those other 5.
How does the rest of the team look figu?
Please can someone advise. my current team is
Foster
Alonso Kolasinac Bdavies Cedric
Salah Silva Mkhitaryan
Kane Jesus Chicharito
Subs: Chalobah RLC Mbemba
Planning to do Jesus -> Lacazette. if anyone has any advice, would really appreciate 🙂
Why not Jesus > Vardy?
A. Sterling + Suttner
B. Azpilicueta + Gross
Choose one?
Hey guys not planning to make a change this week, planning to make 3 next GW, what do u think?
Current midfield & strikers
Salah ALI RICHARLISON RLC Carrol
AGUERO Kane Lukaku
New
Salah SANÉ SILVA RLC Carrol
MORATA Kane lukaku
Won't go for Sane+Silva
Best 3 strikers for this week only, in order...?
a) Lukaku
b) Aguero
c) Lacazette
d) Kane
e) Jesus
f) Morata
a,d,c
and would you choose Vardy ahead of any of the top 3?
no
dac
Correct
Considering minutes played Lukaku Kane morata
Noticing some beginning to ditch Bavies? Reasons?
Because most of the 5m playing are basing decisions around last weeks points not fixtures, underlying stats etc.
Avg .5 in the last two games.
Because he has returned 0 and 1 in last couple of weeks, not something I expect being a first time owner 😛
If no injuries happen then I'll probably go with this team from gameweek 9 making 4 transfers. I have my WC left and i am thinking to save it
FABIANSKI, Elliot
Kola, Davies, Cedric, Mee, MBEMBA
Alli, Salah, GROSS, Carroll, Rlc
Kane, Lukaku, VARDY
Players in caps are the players I'll be getting for Foster, Hegazi, Mkhi, Joselu
Good enough? Still worried about the cheap players tho. And having Gross as my third mid
Looks fine. Gross is probably a better third mid than Joselu a third striker. With Vardy similar level to Mkhi I think. Surely have a little bit left over as well won't you?
Few changes from yesterday. Wildcard.
Elliot Foster
Jones Otamendi Ward Fernandez Mbemba
Silva Mkhi Salah C.Moting Carroll
Kane Vardy Morata
0.7ITB. Plan to do Mkhi to Sane next week. Any comments appreciated..
No Kaku (C) this GW is risky given that approaching 60% own him, and the vaste majority will captain him.
Miki and Morata to Sane and Kaku, then Kaku to Morata next GW.
People making the Firmino to Vardy switch tonight?
Vardy up to 78.8 now on FPL stats and judging by FPL in the last few days, they have been pulling out some surprises.
Seeing Liverpool fans hammer him last night and planning the whole game makes me feel this is a good time to sell.
Doubt it he rises tonight.
He was on about 20.0 on Monday.
Rising rapidly and don't think we can hold until next game week.
I made it a few nights ago!
Vardy has looked electric every time I've watched Leicester this season. Starting to think he could well be a season keeper.
Yeah I'm getting that same vibe and he's not as much of a rotation risk.
need some advice..!
Foster, Elliot
Naughton Davies Jones Mee Long
Eriksen Atsu Salah RLC T.Carroll
Aguero Kane Jesus
A: Jesus > Lacazette/Vardy/Morata
B: Either Foster to a 4.0 or Mee/Naughton > Mbemba and do Jesus > Lukaku for -4.
What are we saying?
need major help on this :
So im in a perfect spot to do Aguero to Lukaku and captain Lukaku this week ... should i do it ?? and then revert back to Aguero for gw8 ..
Transferring a player in for a week is not sustainable in the long run.
My team so far for GW7
Foster
Jones Cedric Trent
Eriksen Salah Silva
Aguero Lukaku(c) Morata
Need to decide who to make my final player: Fernandez or T Carroll?
fernandez
This is doing my head in!
Pedro to Sigurdsson in Draft League? Yes or No
Draft is a shambles but yea perhaps take him in case he fires
My team is currently :
Elliot
Davies - Bertrand - Alonso
Willian - Choupo-Moting - Mahrez - Ritchie
Lukaku - Kane - Firmino
Forster - Carroll - Mariappa - Long
I have 0.6m itb, 1 FT and plan to WC next week
I nearly took a -4 hit doing Long + Willian > Danilo + Davis/Groß
Is this worth doing before a WC or do I have a better option??
Firmino > Vardy possibly
Your midfield is awful, no offence. Turn Moting into RLC/Carrol, same goes for Ritchie.
Mahrez > Mikhi/Silva and Willian > Alli/Eriksen/Mané/Salah/Coutinho.
So you suggest he should make four transfers, i.e. start the gameweek with minus 12, the week before he’s wildcarding?
Bubbles, consider just doing Willian to Ramsey this week, but wait till after Thursday. Fix your midfield with the wildcard next week.
Firmino doesn't need to be in form to score. We have never seen the Fab 4 playing together in the league. Lots of movements resulting in tap-ins. I would keep at least one week.
RMT for this week
Hart
Cedric - Bellerin - Davies - Jones - Kola
Mkhi - Alli - KDB
Kane(c) - Firmino
Bench: Elliot, Carroll, RLC, Quaner
I can't believe the stat in this piece about a WHM player, very interesting consider they were playing Spurs (admittedly partially with 10 men)
6 years, 7 months agoWho do you prefer?
A. Ben Davies
B. Bellerin
C. Kolasinac
