With the Gameweek settled and the Reebok woodwork still reverberating from the efforts of a luckless Robin Van Persie, it’s time for our Members to soak up a selection of key stats from our Opta data. As usual, we’ve also thrown in our take on how the Fantasy Premier League bonus could pan out…
Vorm, (sorensen)
Simpson, Enrique, Richards (Jevans, Kelly)
Bale, Sess, Silva, Bale, Dempsey
Fletcher, RVP, (Torres)
Is this team good enough for this weekend? My plan is to do Torres (sigh) to Ba but i want to wait and see if he suffers from fatigue or not. So would you save a transfer and play fletcher away to QPR or do the transfer?Open Controls
who should be my other GK to combine with Krul? Paddy Kenny, Sorensen, or Mignolet?
Open Controls
mignolet rotates the best.
Open Controlsare you sure? I think Sorensen might rotate better--was leaning towards him, plan is to play Krul most weeks--looking for someone with decent alternatives in difficult weeks (esp. GW 25 and 28)
do you think Taye Taiwo is a good defensive addition? I would probably add Paddy Kenny, but am leaning towards Taiwo; thoughts?Open Controls
I've got Vorm rotating with Krul. Their home - away games rotate perfectly for the rest of the season.
As for Taiwo, I thought he looked exceptional last night. Be surprised if he doesn't get on the BPs.Open Controls
Do we have any indication when the LIV/EVE game is being rescheduled to?
Open Controlsno news as of yet.
Care to help me with my question at the top of the page jins?Open Controls
69 and 61 (pre BPs) in the last 2 weeks, and got both captaincy decisions horribly wrong. Oh what could have been....
Open Controls
Morning all, if you have the time would love a quick A vs B vote on these 2 teams-
A-
Krul/Ruddy
EVANS/ KOMPANY/Kelly/ Williamson/McAuley
Silva/ Bale/ Sess/ Murphy/ Valencia
RVP/ Aguero/ CISSE
B
Krul/Ruddy
KOMPANY/ Skertel/Kelly/ Williamson/McAuley
Silva/ Bale/ BUZAKY/ Murphy/ Valencia
RVP/ Aguero/ BAOpen ControlsProbably a mix of the 2 imo. I'd say A, but do:
1) McAuley (rotation risk now they signed Ridgewell) -> Huth
2) Sess -> Dempsey (better fixtures)
3) Valencia -> Walters (better fixtures)
4) Murphy -> Siggs (rotates with other 4 mids)
5) Cisse -> Ba
If you can't afford that then downgrade Huth to a cheapie, perhaps a QPR defender (Taiwo?)Open Controls
if rooney injured, who will be the striker?wellbeck and chica or well beck n berba or berba n chica?
Open Controls
totalfpl bonus predictions not yet up..............
anyone care to predict for all the matches................Open Controls
I have 2 FT now, if i save them, what will happen next GW?
Open Controlsyou will have 2
Open Controls2 next gw...........
Open ControlsIf you have 2 FT this week and don't use any then you lose 1 of them, i.e. you still only have 2 FT next week
Open Controls
Seems a silly question at this time of the season. You will have 2 FT if you do one trade or none. It is normally worthwhile not to waste a completely free trade as in this case it would be.
Open ControlsI'm not patient player so rarely have over 2FT all season, maybe it's the first time i meet it.
Open ControlsFair enough, the amount of time you spend on the site & the amount of time the question is asked made it seem silly.
From the rules
If you do not use your free transfer, you are able to make an additional free transfer the following Gameweek. If you do not use this saved free transfer in the following Gameweek, it will be carried over until you do. You can never have more than 1 saved transfer.Open Controls
Completely off topic, but did you know the world record for the most number of kids by a woman is 69. Also, the youngest ever mum is 5 years 7 months old. Baffling.
Open ControlsFYI on GK: Man Utd GK Anders Lindegaard is out for around 4 weeks, according to reports in the British press
Open Controls
Cisse or Zamora?
Open Controls
would anyone bench dempsey (mc) or sess (stk) for sinclair (wba)?
Open ControlsTricky. Sinclair normally poor away from home but the other's fixtures are harder. All on form so that's a tricky one. I'd be inclined to bench Sess!
Open Controls
sit Sturridge for game against Man Utd (home game for Chelsea)?; considering 3-5-2 with this MF and FW:
Sinclair, Sigurdsson, Bale, Silva, Sessegnon
RVP, AgueroOpen Controls
I'd rather bench Sigurdsson, Sinclair or Sess to be honest.
Swansea away are a different creature and doubling up is surely madness. Chelsea are at home and they could easily inflict some damage on Utd.Open Controls
Am I mad for wanting to keep the faith with Ade + Mata, as opposed to Bale + Sturr??
Any chance Ade and Mata will pick up in the second half of season?Open ControlsI can see the attraction in Ade but Bale is a must have at the moment.
Ideally I'd have Mata & Bale, especially from GW 26. Money won't stretch thoughOpen Controls
bonus predictions for raylor and valencia?
Open Controls
Line up for gw24:
Vorm ( Lind)
Richards, Caulker, Enrique (BAE, Kelly)
Sess, Silva, Valencia, Bale, Dempsey
Dzeko, RVP (Ade)
After my 7th str red arrow I'm almost down to resorting to rolling dice to pick my cap every week from now on. With 1FT I was thinking about cutting Ade for Ba as I can't stand to see him in my team anymore. Other options appreciate.Open Controls
RVP(C) Fail!
How many of you did RVP(C) ahead of Bale?Open Controls
Wanna ship out sturridge but for who? team's linked...
Open Controlsgotta be dember ba
Open Controlsshould I wait 2 weeks? I have Sturridge, but considering Ba upon advice here
next 2 weeks
Sturridge: Man Utd (home), Everton (away)
Ba: Aston Villa (home), Tottenham (away)
my wildcard is activeOpen Controls
go with the herd, or give Booby Z a try.
Open Controls
senderos -> taiwo? how does that sound? taiwos assist seems to have snuck under the radar. only thing is qpr's chances of a clean sheet...
Open Controls
I honestly don't know why people rate mata? At least from a fantasy perspective.
The guy has had two 10+ scores all season, and in the recent run against ful, villa, wolves, sun, nor and swansea (arguably their best run of fixtures for the season), he only managed a goal against fulham then 2s and 3s.
Good player but seriously overpriced from a fantasy perspective I think. Or am I missing something?Open ControlsChelsea need to score well for Mata to prosper. Team needs a striker doing the business etc.
Open Controls
He's done a lot better than Silva did in his first season. Who knows? Mata may become this season's Silva next season.
Open Controlsgood point, thinking the same myself; a good choice for next season I reckon
Open Controls
If you watch him play/check out his stats, you'd know.
It's Chelsea that is the problem.Open Controls
anyone taking a chance on zamora instead of ba? for now anyway.
Open Controlsno. ba all the way.
i blame you 500% for convincing me to support rvp 🙁 had bale till the last day.. 😉Open ControlsI had zamora before the transfer, and I was going to upgrade him to Ba anyway, but I think I might just hold out a week or two.
QPR great fixtures, and Ba maybe be tired.Open Controlsim not so much worried about fatigue as i am his rhythm and his production with a new strike partner. plus Z will be on pens surely, the fixtures, the price, the fact that everyone and their mum automatically assumes ba will go right back to braces on the regular.
hmmmmOpen Controls
Ba as I don't wanna have 3 Fulham players. Also i'm fine if ba is benche for another week as then I can play all 5 of my MFers without fear of benching points again.
Open Controlsyou wouldnt have 3 fulham players
Open Controls
My front 3:
Sturridge Aguero RVP
3 weeks of nada.
Ba Cisse Carrol!!Open ControlsRVP 2 goals in his last 3...?
