Our regular post-Gameweek members’ article, focusing on some of the most eye-catching numbers over the previous round of fixtures, is up next.
We scrutinise a number of premium midfielders as many Fantasy managers look to invest in the centre of the park, while Spurs and Chelsea’s frontmen are also under analysis ahead of some fine upcoming schedules.
Jones to Mustafi looks good
Do you like this front eight:
Hazard, Salah, Sane, Pogba, RLC
Kane, Wilson, Abraham?
Nope
No
Awful
what about sterling this weekend is he able to score ?? and Jones is he fit??
No jones injured. Sterling might play but a start is unlikely given he played full match last night. Not worried as he scores from the bench anyway. And he might start ahead of b.Silva
So Otamendi price locked until the weekend? Any chance Jones doesn’t drop in value... looks to be moving slowly... only tomorrow and Some of Friday left to drop...
He shouldn't. Lots will forget about deadline and you can do it Friday night but safer to wait for the games to be played
At what price did you get him?
£5.1M
Current sp £5.3M
Purchase price now £5.5M
Joes will probably drop Friday night dependent on what Jose says about his long term prognosis.
I hate to sell him but it’s looking likely to be honest. Otamendi next 3 fixtures look gift!
Hiya lads 🙂
Team is:
Elliot
Ward - Duffy - Moreno
Richarlison - Salah - Sane - Sterling
Aguero - Kane - Morata
_____________________________
Krul: RLC, Mbemba, Francis
Do all of these moves look sound enough to do over the coming weeks?
Mbemba > Azpi
Francis > Otamendi/Mustafi
Sterling > Pogba
Aguero > C. Wilson
Many thanks.
Yes
Cheers man!
Got 2 FT's right now, so would you just do the Aguero & Sterling moves this week?
Sterling & Francis to Pogba & Mustafi/Otamendi this week imo
If you can afford
Cheers mate, i'd definitely do that but have 0.0 in the bank, so has to be from an Aguero sale perspective first.
Assume that the Aguero move enables the rest, obviously if you don’t need to sell Aguero to get Pogba and Otamendi then don’t. Unlikely though.
Personally I would because you still have Sane and Pogba price will go through the roof once the rice freeze is lifted. Wilson has great fixtures and you can redistribute funds elsewhere. Pity about Ward this weekend but you might get lucky with an unlikely Burnley shut out v Arsenal
Yeah in full agreement there mate, cheers. Getting rid of Aguero now starts the path to getting the players i want in, so will be well distributed.
Yeah a bit gutted about Ward's fixture, just hoping for the best from him, Thanks again man 🙂
BREAKING: Oumar Niasse has been banned for two games for simulation after @FA reject @Everton's appeal #ssn
Abraham replacement after next week?? Wanted Niasse. Is dcl good choice
i would keep abraham
Any news on potential Niasse ban?
Nvm above
2 posts above 🙂
2 game ban - check sky sports
Reply fail below 😀
Naisse's ban is confirmed
He serves a 2-match ban
So back next weekend rested and raring to go you say?
That or struggling to regain his place after DCL proves himself 😉
Any suggestions?
1FT / 0.5 ITB
Elliot
Otamendi / JONES / Daniels
Salah / Sterling / Richarlison / RLC
Kane / Aguero / Morata
Foster / Carroll / Mee / Gomez
Cheers.
Aguero > C. Wilson
Play Mee and save ft or Jones to Mustafi imo
Pick 2:
or would you have all 3?
A) Morata
B) Hazard
C) Azp (or other defender)
A C
Worth doubling up on arsenal def?
Have kol. Thinking Jones--》 Mustafi
Not worth the risk
Thoughts on getting Davies in on wildcard and then selling him next week for Otamendi or someone like that? Home to WBA might be the best defensive fixture possible right now
Don’t like planning a transfer off a wildcard team.., you get an injury then your stuck with him for god knows how long... don’t like it sorry.
Just get Otamendi now.
Would be the sensible thing
Any news on West Broms Pulis replacement?
I am looking at Phillips as a future transfer
Currently considering Silva -> Sane (FT)
Stats wise Silva is better in goal threat but awful goal conversion. Sane is slightly better in assist potential and is more often in the box.
Your opinion please?
Get both
Sorry, no chances. Has to be Silva or Sane.
Just done that myself, may not work out this week but long term the right move imo.
Yeah, with Pep giving us hint about Mendy/Sane/Delph roles I am tempted to make the switch, even with 0.6 difference. I was so frustrated watching Silva missing all big chances in last 2 GWs. He should have scored at least 2 goals
Guys,
Do we think Moreno will start v Chelsea at the wkend? he was subbed early in CL last niite.
Tnks.
Are Morata’s numbers a bit worrying? Will he be more involved eventually? Is Hazard simply a better pick, despite the fact that there’s much more competition for the midfield spots?
Before reading this article, Morata was the only forward in the game I felt certain about having at this stage. Now there’s basically none. What’s the ideal front three? If I knew Agüero would be starting at least two out of three, he would be an easy pick. Could he still be a decent if only he starts half the matches or so?
I think Aguero will start the next 2 at least, but thats just my gut feeling
Those xG figures can be deceptive if a player scores a lot of goals with his head, since headed goal attempts are expected to miss most of the time. Having said that, I'm still not convinced Morata is a natural goalscorer with his feet. And since Conte seems to think he can't play two games every week I suspect his minutes on the pitch will be limited between now and January.
Sorry, that was a reply to the OP.
That’s a good point. I guess that part of the story is that he’s just a good header. I haven’t read any of Conte’s comments on managing his game time, but I assume it’s the same story for all the top strikers for the rest of the year. Even Lukaku will get occasional rests now that Ibrahimovic is back. You think now could be a good time to have a player like Vardy who will probably play most of the games coming up?
Yeah, maybe Vardy is worth considering. Personally I'm sticking with Aguero & Jesus up front. If they're rotated they should both be relatively fresh for every game they play, and I think they'll both get 20+ goals this season.
My guess is that he starts on the bench against Huddersfield, starts against Southampton midweek and is again on the bench against West Ham. I intend to keep for the Southampton match, hoping that he gets something like 30 minutes against Huddersfield, sufficiently to get a goal—and consider selling before West Ham. What’s the ideal front three in your opinion?
Stats and numbers can only take you so far imo. The eye test with morata tells me he's an outstanding option
That’s great to hear. You think he will eventually get more involved, or is he that type of player that will keep on “over-performing” due to great finishing etc.?
Admittedly I cannot read the article, but the bottom line is that he is the highest scoring forward and the cheapest of the premiums.
Whether or not this is sustainable remains to be seen, but so far it looks as though he is taking his chances - surely that is what you want?
Sure, but it’ll be interesting to see if he could keep up going forward. I will not take him out anytime soon at least.
I got Morata in on wildcard last week and he saved me from a Kane blank. My reasoning is his price, he has no competition for his spot (unlike Aguero/Jesus) and the fact that he has scored double figure hauls three times in the 10 games he has properly played, unlike Lukaku who only seems to nick the solitary goal.
Hope he keeps up the pace then! What’s the ideal front three at this stage, in your opinion?
You know I don't think there's an ideal. I've gone with Kane, Morata and Niasse. Aguero + Kane + Niasse/Murray/Abraham would be ideal if Aguero was nailed and Kane wasn't so prone to blanking but since he is...
Save?
1FT 0ITB
Elliot
Cedric Mee Azpil
Salah Richarlison DSilva RLC
Kane Lukaku Jesus
Pereria Carroll Jones Huney
Same GK combo as me lol
Abraham > Niasse > Abraham for -4?
Keep Niasse. You want him for Huddersfield. If people just upgrade bench they can make through two weeks without him.
>:[
Here is how the Blues line up in Baku: Courtois; Azpilicueta (c), David Luiz, Rudiger; Zappacosta, Kante, Fabregas, Alonso; Willian, Hazard, Pedro. #QARCHE
Haz false 9?
Looks like it or a fluid front 3
Back to 3-4-3 with Will, Pedro and Haz interchanging i think.
Interesting
Morata rested!
Hazard up front?
Your spelling of #quiche leaves a lot to be desired
Substitutes: Caballero, Cahill, Christensen, Sterling, Bakayoko, Drinkwater, Morata
morata injured?
Benched with Sterling....
Bench. Rested
Thoughts on these moves for next 2 gws?
GW13: Luiz ➡️ Otamendi
GW14: Davies ➡️ Alonso
Pope
Otamendi • Alonso • Ward
Salah • Sane • Silva • Richa • RLC
Kane • Morata
(Elliot / VVD / Wimmer / Niasse)
Good moves. Punt on Kompany instead of Otamendi maybe???
He’s a transfer waiting to happen.
Having a problem with Jones. Can sell for 5.2 and i have 0.5 ITB. Would love Otamendi, but...
Best 5.7 defender? Alreay have Lowton, Duffy, Monreal and Aké. Got Speroni and Elliot in goal.
Christensen?
Mustafi?
Double up on Gunners def?
Christensen rested 😀
Hopefully.
Him and Luiz to be rotated.
"I think Christensen is playing very well but we have to play a lot of games, and we have to play every three days. We need all the players and to have different solutions [is good] - last season in this position I didn't have this opportunity."
http://www.insidefutbol.com/2017/11/20/antonio-conte-indicates-chelsea-star-will-have-to-be-rotated-despite-superb-form/357074/
Christensen wagon up in flames!
Wouldn't him not starting tonight enhance it?
David Luiz back in the fold ruins Christensen as an option.
No he will play lolpool. But lesser fixtures Luiz might play
ok so im on a wc and just made a team minus kane, check this 0.0itb
ddg / speroni
azpi / Alonso / ota / mustafi / daniels / hunny m
pog / sane / Rlc / salah / rich
morata / jesus / niasse
is kane that essential?
V good team on paper! no need of Kane with this team imo
6 def
sorry no daniels
Bench query:
A Rashford
B Sterling
C Richarlison
D Eriksen
Currently on Rashford but could be persuaded....
Sanchez/Ozil are options surely now? Good fixtures and not many have them
Luiz & Christensen both are probably rotation risks from here on.
See above.
Azpi & Alonso only the nailed ones now I guess.
Sterling to pogba - 4 a daft move , my full bench is injured and sterling could be benched
6 years, 5 months agoHey gents. Im lost on what to do with this lot. Any suggestions?
