Our first delve into the members data this week sees us assess the recent displays of Sergio Aguero, Diego Costa and Olivier Giroud and take a look at the “Sherwood effect” on Christian Benteke as Villa prepare for double Gameweek 31. We also check out the form of Swansea and Tottenham’s playmakers as the fixtures turn kind for both clubs.
Anything to add?
Panti
Terry Clyne Hutton
Hazard Silva Ozil Eriksen
Aguero Giroud Kane
Hamer, Boyd, PVA, Dawson
1 FT, 2.0 ITB
Should I do these?
A. Panti -> Guzan
B. Hutton is he nailed on? If yes I'd rather keep, If no I will go for SOTON def
C. PVA to Toby
pva to Toby looks good but i do think Huttons place unde threat, his replacement was great last week
Exactly. This DGW 31 which involves Villa makes the decision a bit harder.
I'm leaning towards Hutton -> Toby, and maybe do very late decision.
C
Morning DZ. This double in 31 has really muddled my thinking. I know I should ignore but its tickling my double week g-spot.
Myhill
Terry Wollo Alder
Sanchez Haz Silva Erik
Giroud Aguero Kane
Foster Boyd PVA Hadria
1M ITB 1FT No Wildcard
A. Save and Erik to Siggy next week (original plan), moving towards funds for Hadria to Ivan
B. Save and Erik to Siggy and Boyd to Phillips. Not sure who I would bench for Phillips
C. Save and Erik to Siggy and Kane/ Giroud to Austin. Hmmm
D. Save and Erik to Siggy and Kane/ Giroud to Benteke
E. Foster to Ospina
F. Foster to Guzan
G. Something else
Never got to G in options before. Reflects my muddled thinking.
Take a cold shower and get your hand off the G-spot.
DE or F
I guess if you are getting Guzan, do it this week. If not then save. I wouldn't get Ospina until 34 - bit of a waste of a transfer before that
Thanks all
F for me. Not too convinced with Siggy though.
Need my 4th mid to downgrade and not enough for Mane. All planning for funds to get Ivan for Hadria by 33
Hold this week. I know Eriksen is a troll but spurs face leicester, if he's gonna do something, on paper, it should be now.
I'd honestly go:
Sanchez -> Mane
Hadria -> IvanCheers mate. I am so stubborn on Sanchez, you are prob right
Yeh, so go with the flow of form. I am stubborn too and I have held players way longer than I should have this season and it cost me. Giroud looks like the best arsenal option, and you need Ivan imo, especially for the dgw.
Myhill
Bellerin Hutton Bertie
Sanchez silva erik hazard
Kane Kun Giroud
Foster PVA Walters Baird
1FT 0.1 Bank
What to do with this lot?
A. Save
B. Foster > Guzan
C. Something elseA
Probably save. Next week downgrade Walters and get a defender for Baird
2 FTs and my Defense is:
Terry Clyne Rose PVA Bellerin
A. PVA -> Toby (double up)
B. Clyne -> Ivan & Rose -> Toby (for free)
C. ignore Defense and do Sterling -> ManeI like B but not this week. Could you do rose > Ivan and Sterling > Mane?
I can. Thanks for the idea.
If not, I'd do B
C
A for me.
B is too sideways (Rose has a good fixture this week).A looks nice but with
Terry Clyne and Rose would you play Toby?
B for meYour defence looks fine! I'd go C
Cheers all
Total guff I know but I need a 1 week defensive punt for my draft league side for gwk 30. Which one to go for?
A) Dann (sto)
B) Collins (SUN)
C) Demichelis (WBA)
D) Pieters (CRY)
E) Fernandez (ava)
F) Dier (LEI)
May look to hold onto one of them for a while longer. Appreciate your help gents.D
Collins
C
Ahh, different choices. A bit of a headache as its the final piece in my jigsaw.
Hopefully Arsenal's DGW isnt in GW31 🙄
cats. pigeons. tears.
i really dont mind
You are great 😉
I have donkey Sanchez Ozil. Would be perfect for me
Do men have G spots? 😕
Haha ... great question.
Yes. Several.Really? Where do I find them? 😯
You should know.
I don't so where are they?
Inside your ear drum. Gotta get right in there just next to the brain but boy is it worth it!
Around the head of the bick.. Or simply bickbead
Anyone know who's team is "Big Bad RooDoo"?
That would be me. Why?
We're up against each other in the LAWR4 H2H this week.
Just been scoping your team and wondering what i need to do to get over the top.
Very similar teams and it could come down to a wise captain armband!K . I c.
Basically:
Naughton PVA Bertrand Boyd Ozil (you)
vs
Jones Clyne Lescott JWP Cazorla (me)
with 3 to bench.Jones is an interesting punt
I brought him in 5 weeks ago and he's done exactly SFA aside from a CS last week.
I hate the man!I bet you do
So basically Naughton/Ozil v Lescott/Caz unless berty/clyne get in on the goals
I guess ... unless there are some big transfers in the meantime 😉
Hehe...
Diouf likely to start for Stoke this weekend (gwk30)? Was surprised he was omitted.
How's this plan?
Foster Hamer
Terry Clyne Dawson Haidara PvA
Hazard Sanchez Silva Erik Boyd
Kun Kane Giroud
2 FT 1m ITB.
GW 30 : Hamer -> Ospina
GW 31 : Kun -> Benteke
GW 32 : Benteke -> Costa
GW 33 : PvA -> Sakho (and benched with Giroud Sanchez Ospina) or Schlupp
GW 34 : Silva Erik Kane -> Hendo Mane Sturridge (-4)
Will leave me with for the DGW..
Ospina
Terry Sakho Clyne
Hazard Sanchez Hendo Mane
Costa Sturridge Giroud
Other dilemma is to whether Silva / Eriksen -> Mane now or GW34?I'd wait
My jerky fingers are itching..
G-Spot got you all hot under the collar?
2 Qs..
1. Foster likely to be back on GW 33?
2. Sakho + Mane or Schlupp + Coutinho* for DGW?
*Triple LIV attack with Hendo + Sturridge1, really dont know. Would like to know this too! Foster to Guzan move stuffed if he is
2 Sakho and ManeCheers Sab
1. Out for 4 weeks
2. Sakho and ManeYeah his estimated return is on GW 33 on FPL. But yeah you know..
report said minimum 4 weeks. If i had to guess, and total guess, may miss it. Say West Brom safe, why risk it, knees ore dodgy. I know personally!
4 weeks according to Tweet
former
Which teams will Villa face in gw 31? Who are the players of your choice? Guese I will only go Bente(k)e
QPR, manu
Which other attacking player from Villa tickles your G-spot?
None
They have other attacking players?
There's a G-Spot?
So 34 doubles are now
Confirmed
Chelsea
Leicster
Could be-
Arsenal
Sunderland
If Lpool beat Blackburn
Lpool
Hull
Guess us non wc owners hoping for Arsenal 31 as well?Nope. Hoping for GW34
yeah hoping for gw31..then i can have an option of taking out some of the arsenal players 🙂
Guess it depends how many ARS we currently holding. Def waiting until deadline for transfers this weeks incase of fixture announcements
i only have 2 but with 2ft..currently have austin yun bellerin ozil...
not the best bunch of DGW players to have especially bellerin but when i add in guzan and sanchez i guess its not too bad and i still can bring 4ward an FT for gw32.
Think I prefer Arsenal DGW in 34 with no wildcard
Just thinking of my rival who has a wc and i currently have Giroud and Sanchez. Think if in 34 he can load up, the more the Doubles are spread out i feel happier. Maybe im looking at it wrong
only the one question for me.
Eriksen Austin to
Henderson Giroud
both on frees. for this gw but also thereafter.Negative Ghostrider!
Eriksen & Austin have good fixtures this GW, Austin has a double in GW31 and Eriksen's fixtures look plum.
I also see the attraction of Giroud but he blanks in GW33Doesnt Austin have a double?
I say hold fire. I'd love a stiker on a MNF or last fixture of a GW, you know what I mean
What would you guys do with this team with 2FT
Ospina
Terry-Pva-Bertrand
Sanchez-Hazard-Silva-Eriksen
Aguero-Austin-Kane
Wollscheid-Boyd-Haidara+0.7Van Aan to Alder
I'd get rid of Haidara since he's injured though.
Don't want to double up on Southampton defence
Ship PVA
Zouma, Bellerin or Naughton all decent optionsThink I might bring in Zouma
PVA out, to Dawson perhaps
Morning DZ
I am in a dilemma and need to figure out which move to do here. Can I please get some help?
A) Foster -> Migs (Panti the other keeper)
B) Haidara/PVA -> McShane or Upson (4.2 or below. Other defs Terry, Dawson, Bellerin)
C) Punch -> Mane
D) Aguero -> Costa
E) Save FT
Satisfied with other players in my team. Just need to sort this out. Which move should I do? Is any of them worth taking a hit for? If yes, which ones.
Thanks.C or E
C.
1st one will give 2BGW GK(if Liverpool win). 2nd isn't really required, though Van Aan to Alder would be tempting.Yes that's true. But won't leave me with funds to upgrade Punch though. Looks like C is the best option. Cheers.
C or E
Cheers lads. Looks like a coin toss between C and E.
Hi guys, I guess I am really struck at the crossroad now with an unbalanced squad structure (cheapest midfielder at 6.6m)... appreciate if anyone can provide some advice here, thanks a lot!
Krul (Foster)
Naughton, Alderweireld, Wolly (PvA, C.Dawson)
Hazard, Silva, Eriksen, Mane (Sanchez)
Aguero, Giroud, Kane
2 Free Transfers, £0.2m in the bank
my preliminary thoughts right now:
a) Foster --> Guzan (or any GK for 4.8m)
b) Sanchez --> Sinclair
c) Sanchez & Wolly --> M.Phillips & Ivanovic (or Terry)
d) Aguero --> Costa or Rooney (!)
Appreciate the help!Sanchez to Sinclair and Wollscheid to Ivan?
Morning DZ, will we know for sure if the remaining GW33 blanks have been moved to GW31 by the deadline this week?
no idea, sorry
just save ur FT and wait
So if I do the mouth-watering PVA -> Ivan & Sterling -> Mane, my team will look like this.
Panti Krul
Ivan Terry Clyne Rose Bellerin
Hazard Silva Erik Mane Boyd
Kun Kane Giroud
I can some serious benching headache coming in 😆never bench boyd 😛
Aah, I'm forgetting his usual bench points 😀
boyd is a frustrating player fpl wise for owners and non-owners
non-owners feeling jealous about how rival's auto sub boyd's points come into play
owners feeling pissed off with all the bench points that they miss..and yet they are unwilling to start him and just have to endure the bench pointsVery true. What he needs to do now is to just bring the points in BGW33
as an non-owner i hope its not true!
Looks great. I guess it's going to come down to Bellerin or Rose for that 3rd defender spot most weeks.
but I got Ivan JT and Clyne too. Confused here
Stick Rose and Bellerin to bench. Easy-peasy
sure bout that? Rose has LEI bur AVL new in his next four.
As if they are going to keep clean sheets 😛
I would do Rose to Ivan instead. 🙂That would be the sensible way (no benching issue) but then Rose will get maximum BAPs again 😉
Those are some beautiful transfers and a beautiful team.
but then., the headache... 🙁
you think I should proceed? Will still be left with 0.3 itb ...
Yeah I like it. Only headache is your defence and with Bellerin maybe getting the odd rest then a strong backup will be useful.
Really good team. I'd bench Clyne & Bellerin this week. Think Rose have a good chance of a CS and attacking points against Leicester,
You think Burnley will score? Hmm.. how bout Erik for the bench?
Not really. Just think Rose can potentially get ore points. That could be done, yes. Since you already have Kane.
Thanks all for the replies.
Is Foster injury a sign from above to cap Kun?
haha i dont think heaton is particularly impressive when kun blanks against burnley
Myhill is better than Foster 😛
is he?
Havent seen him play this season but was good in last season. Makes some quality saves...
Whatcha reckon?
A) Save
B) Foster -> Guzan
C) Santi -> Mane
Myhill
Terry, Berty, Bellerin
Sanchez, Hazard, Silva, Eriksen, Santi
Aguero, Kane
Foster, Haidara, PVA, Ayoze
Bank 0.1m, 1FT, 1WCB
C for me.
Been looking a B myself but now thinking A. Suck up this weeks game vs City and then 2 nice fixtures for Myhill. 2fts next week is handy
Cheers. Since AVL and QPR also have good fixtures this week I'm also toying with taking a hit this week to bring in a couple of DGWers...something like:
D) Santi & Ayoze -> Phillips & Benteke
Thoughts?I agree that if you are going to do it then do it this week, especially the Benteke move.
I think that for a hit that is an ok move, only question is if you bring in Phillips who will you bench from your mid for the next 2 weeks?Id likely bench Phillips this week and then Eriksen/Silva next week. Could get burned I guess.
benteke 3 games vs Ayonze if obv a huge yes
then its -4 and Phillips 2 vs Erik vs burnley away/ Silva vs palace away.
Think im leaning to yes*Phillips 2 games
No need to move Foster until we know more about his injury. Mane is tempting - but Santi is just as likely to do well this GW. Save the transfer I reckon Jinswick - and give yourself more flexibility next week.
PS. Whats your take on Sanchez? His stats still look ok but his FPL points have dried up lately.
It's a tricky one. I'm loathed to ditch any ARS players until we know their DGW can't be in GW31, plus I'm a bit of a stats man and Sanchez is still getting in the right spots, so I think he will come good. Got him cheap also so I'll be keeping unless he gets injured/dropped.
I have 2FT and am toying with Sanchez --> Mane which will allow me to do PVA --> Ivanovich (and leave me with change) . RMT says that thats a great move - but Im scared that Alexis might rediscover his magic shortly and haunt me!
Cheers AB. I believe Foster has been confirmed out for 4 weeks, and since I'll be WCing in GW34 I doubt he'll play again for me.
Not convinced it's the best use of a transfer, but with SWA and then a double, Guzan could make up a few points on MyhillAhh ok... I hadn't caught up with the Foster news. Im not keen on Keeper transfers at all - but the rest of your team is solid so I can see the temptation. Personally, I still think Id save the transfer.
Out for a month already confirmed
Thanks Ruberx.
Just did Terry to Ivan.
Damn that felt good.i really hope u will enjoy the transfer 🙂
Terry will now bang in 3 goals in the next four GWKS
no he won't.
nonsense.Wasn't tempted to get both?
He will
Sense
best move here is to do foster to guzan? 2ft 2.5m
foster myhill
bellerin bertrand ivan rose yun
silva eriksen hazard ozil ameobi
aguero kane austin
any other suggestions will be appreciated thanks! 🙂Yeah that move makes sense.
Wait til deadline though, would love an ARS double in 31 and then you would be looking at different movesthank you. yeah will wait till deadline 🙂
yep
thanks 😀
Rose out?
Boooo 😉
You really need to get off that bandwagon.. 😛
haha whats your suggestion on rose replacement? or should i go bellerin out? even if there is a DGW31 i am unsure whether he will play both games or not and he probably blocked out my triple ozil sanchez giroud combo
Will you play Yun in DGW? If yes, then Foster to Guzan otherwise Rose to Alder/Clark/Collins.
i think i might be tempted to play yun. alder is a good move and i want to get him too.
That could be done, but you could have no GK for GW33, if Foster comes back.
interesting point. i will consider whether to take the risk or not..i think i will since WBA fixtures turning sour after gw34 and guzan will cover that. might just take it in the chin if foster back by then
You are driving along a long straight road probably in a countryside and all of a sudden a Zebra or Deer appears on the road. Screeeeeeech and #boom. That is DGW 31 for you.
the alert drivers are already aware of the possible danger along the long road
doesn't look very appealing to me..
its only for people who already have benteke/austin..something like a bonus for them.
guzan maybe if u shipping out a GKI have
Silva Sanchez Ozil Hazard
Aguero Kane Giroud
I can do Aguero/Gru>Bente(k) e
Or I can Ram into the zebra with my range rover and move on
Good to save FT this week?
Foster, Panti
Ivan, Terry, Bertrand, Naughton, PvA
Hazard, Sanchez, Eriksen, Mane, Moses
Kane, Austin, Aguero
0.8 ITByep. Consider Foster -> Guzan
Already have a playing keeper and still have my WC. Better to let him rot on the bench?
Yep. Good team.
Then why did I get a GW rank of 3.3 million? 😉 😛
Because everyone else did 😀
Only the warriors fall in a battlefield. 😉
Captain for this week?
Leaning towards Hazard
Think I might just go with Kane. Aguero, Hazard, Costa, Giroud all good options though. What are you going for?
Sakho
Nice. Bold move that. Could well pay off since Sunderland are very poor and unsettled with a new manager coming in. But with all the other good options, it is risky though. Good luck if you stick to it by the deadline. 😛
West Ham are free falling down the table though.
Pretty plumb fixtures for the rest of the season though!
Nah... I wont. 🙂
Assuming most will stick with Kun so leaning towards Kane.
Your fav.I also had considered Kane, until Inssie convinced me otherwise 😀
3 central defenders or not, its still Leicester.
Just remember Innsie is captaining Fonte ... the greatest punt of all-time.
Maybe aside from Boyd, or Milner!
My fav captain is Kaka for this week 😉
you join the leagues yet?
Yep. Hell Rider. 🙂
Nice. Going with Dwyer I think. Surely he has to score this week.
Trolled me last week. He missed a PK, turned out to be a 7pt swing plus a loss in 0.2 in value.
That donkey pretending to be a horse
Aguero will come right but a case of when. 5pts clear mini league. Can't take the chance of not making him skip.
Probably seems like a silly question but, Any chance I can still make the top 10k? Currently sitting on 21k and haven't been hovering around there for a while. Can't seem to get back in 🙁
http://gyazo.com/579ad9144d0d0a6d96d1fe429cd255aa
Of course.
Textbook PK from a composed Torres yesterday. Prob the best out of the whole shootout. Glad Atletico was able to pull through.
Definitely. Less than ~30 pts between 20K and 10K.
Easy-peasy
You did click on the link, right? Haven't been able to get back in there for a while 😛
Get your cap right this week and you are halfway there
The link isnt working for me, so no 😛
Start taking calculated risk, should work.It shows my GW history between GW 17-29. Since GW 21 I have been between 16k and 21k. Can't seem to get out of there 😛
For improvement, need to do something different. Going with everyone will only help you to keep that rank safe I guess.
Hazard (C) it is.
Have Austin
Really not sure about getting Benteke/villa players.....after DGW he has: tot blank mci
Thoughts of a possible demolition job at home to QPR though. Perhaps N'zogbia or Sinclair for a midfield punt instead? Although they will still need to be shipped immediately after.
Silva > N'zogbia then N'zogbia > Siggy all for free? (I have no other issues)Why do you want to take Silva out with those tasty fixtures? I would avoid tbh, unless you replace your 5th mid for him.
don't have anything in the bank, would need to lose Silva or sanchez to bring in an extra DGW player.
So take out the player who isnt returning pts?
hmm. Sanchez has 2-3-3-8-2 since return from injury. And Arsenal are home to Liverpool that GW
then away at burnley and then blank
no Arsenal cover for 3GWs until their double....Surely you expect more than that? He isnt the focal pt of attack anymore. He might explode some week but over 10GWs, I think his output wont justify his price.
So, are we giving Sanchez that 'one more week' or is it time to get rid?
Sell Sell Sell
9 years, 2 months agosiggy for me over rest of season but maybe bacuna/n'zogbia over next 2 GWs?
