With just Everton’s trip to White Hart Lane left to be played in the gameweek, it’s time for our members to soak up our pick of the stats from the action so far, along with our punt on how the Fantasy Premier League bonus will pan out…
i started this week by silva-bale and when he deliver i was so pissed cause i could do mata-bale but i decide o give him one last chanse since he play against wolwes.
dyer stay at bench-classic
but luck was on my side this time-i got 50 pts with 4 to play cause ba and simpson saved my day
and i am delighted by picking donovan as only everton coverageOpen Controls
I asked God to grant me strength,
Instead He gave me Royston Drenthe.
Now I'll make a pot of coffee.
Never again bring in a Toffee.Open Controls

Trailing dead team by 9pts.. Opponent has vdv to play against my Ade(c) + Jags...
I'm I exiting the cup?Open Controls
Might as well forget Jags and hope that it's Ade who scores against Everton rather than VDV. That's what it'll come down to IMO, anything you might get from Jags is a bonus.

Ohh ain't this game a b*tch!
I have a perfectly good team for next gw and plan is/was to save a transfer and leave wc after gw23.
I'm trying to keep my calm, but don't I wait for a moment to give boot for certain mr. Jones, Wilko, Vdv, maybe even Nani!
Now it will be a real joy to look how Jones, Nani, Sturridge etc will go down, and same time Kompany etc will go up in price.
I suppose it's good to wait and stick with plan. Last time I changed it was 3 gw's ago when I rushed Ba => Sturridge transfer one week earlier (with a hit!) to gain money (at least that's what I tought) and look what happened. Sturridge produced me total of 4 point during 3 gw's, same time Ba got 20 + 3 bonus to come.
Do you guys remember when was the last time this game made you happy????
I wanna quit, but I can't - am I somekind of fantasyholic?
Is there treatment at Betty Ford clinic for example?
Help me....Open Controlsi was happy yesterday
cause i belive in ba and didnt fall at sturridge bangdown like everyone elseOpen Controls
I know exactly what you mean - and yes you are a fantasyholic. This game slaps you in the face most weeks but it's that gameweek that you get a 27 point kick over your rival which gives you the determination for the the next month.
Open Controls
I too dumped Ba for Sturridge two weeks ago , at the time i think it was correct . Obviously it turned out badly,
Reality is though that everything looks simple looking back . But at the time , Sturridge was in great form with easy fixtures ahead , while Ba had two tougher games followed by an exit to AfricaOpen Controlsnever get rid of players in FORM
FORM>FixuresOpen Controls
I was just thinking that this game is quite stupid, what do you think?
🙂Open Controls
Try being a Gooner with too many morals. I can't face being pleased to see a Spurs player do well so refuse to have them in my team. Not been a problem before this season. It's hurting now, especially this week!
Open Controls
Opponent: VdV + 9pts
Me: Ade(c) + Jags
Am I still in this?!
Horrid gameweek, going out of the cup to a dead team hurts more..Open ControlsGolf course. Thunderdog, shouting and fighting, but still alive.

Thoughts on WC mkIII team?
Vorm, Lindegaard
Kompany, Enrique, Evans, Simpson, Cahill(if at Chelsea)
Dempsey, Bale, Silva, Valencia, McLean
Aguero, Sturridge, VPOpen Controls
what the hell is wrong with the site?
can't see me posts and i'm guessing other people have the same issue as they have repeated some of their posts a few times (Katie!)Open Controls
I'm 3 points behind my H2H leader and am playing him this week.
I was delighted when he missed the deadline leaving RVP as capt
Fast forward a few days and I'm currently 6 points behind pre bonus. He is predicted 9 bonuses I'm looking at just 3 so that makes a 12 point gap.
I have Ade(c) VDV BAE Baines and Drenthe
He has Ade, Bale and BAE
Am I right to be worried?Open Controls
How often that the opponent's GK (Howard) would score while both of my Everton players (Osman and Jags) would be subbed out early because of injuries?
Surely rare but it really unbelievably happened.. -____-"Open Controls
thoughts on this wild card team:
Vorm Ruddy
Brown Kompany Shotton Simpson caulker
Silva Bale Dempsey Sess walters
Rooney Aguero Ade
Im trying to catch leader, 100 points between us, currently we only have 3 players that arent the same so this wildcard team will leave us with Vorm,simpson,Silva,Bale Ade in common, thoughts??Open Controls
so out goes nani... yay or nay?
Open Controlsno WC just plain old GW21:
Krul
Warnock, Enrique, JEvans, BAE
Nani, Mata, Bale
RvP, Morison, Ade
Vorm, Walters, Osman, Wilko
2 possibilities:
Nani > Silva?
Osman > Sess?Open Controlsbandwagon-a-go-go?
had Sess and then sold Sess and the put him back on my watchlist.
Cabby could be a go-er though.
your thoughts on Mr. Silva please......Open Controls
Silva, Schmilva, I don't want him 'cos fourty whatever % have him. He's regular with points but... meh.
Open Controls
I know you say that 'having him means nothing because everybody has him' but surely not having him is worse, no?
Open Controls+1
No such thing.Open Controls
Have to agree....he's selected by 40%+ because he's one of the few consistent players in the league.....you can rotate as much as you want with VDV/Nani/Mata etc.....but no one in the 9.5+ range has delivered so consistently as Silva and as consistency is craved as a FF manager makes him a must along with Kompany!
Open Controls
i know, i know.
but i'm stuck with Mata. he's regular with but no points.
Mata > Silva looks good.Open ControlsMate Silva is a no brainer, the people that play him down are those who don't have him and are to justify his exclusion!
With Yaya away he's going to be even more important to City!Open Controls
Well.....what a poor GW so far! With so many of us expecting a big points haul I think it's fair to say a number of us are slightly disappointed.
The only saving grace is that I have VDV (c) Bale Adebayor and Jags still to play. Although with results playing out like they are it would not be a surprise if Everton turn Spurs over!Open ControlsIs he?!?!? I didn't realise......then just Bale/VDV and Adebayor.
Jags no big loss 😉Open Controls
Yeah we can take solace that a lot of us are in the same boat. A bit win for casuals, the lucky and probably the pros
Open ControlsAgreed.....thank god I have a wc to play to get rid of some dead wood!

cheers!Open Controlsbonus points soon?
Open Controls
who will win:
Me : currently at 38 points ( Ba possible bonus of 3)
bale (C), adebayor, walker, Baines, Osman, Drenthe
Opponent : 43 points ( possible bonus for Cahill(3), Kompany(1) )
bale, BAE, modric
Btw my opponent has : ( Howard, BAE, YAYA, rodallega) on bench LOLOpen ControlsYou're on 33.
Open ControlsTrue, 25 then.
Open Controls
that's not his "real" team.
i remember that he link a second (illegal) team because of lurkers and league opponents....Open Controls
so going with relatively cheap rotational defence to get this team:
Foster- Ruddy
Enrique Caulker Shotton - williamson senderos
nani gerrard bale donovan- moses
sturridge rvp aguero
i think it is a good team however was thinking nani>>>lampard and moses>>> really bad midfielder
what do u think?Open ControlsSo in other words;
"Nani and Moses to really bad midfielders"Open Controls
I think this GW let us all come to a couple of conclusions:
1) Ba is a season keeper at his price. Too bad he'll be missed for African cup but I'll get him back in the moment he comes back regardless of his fixtures.
2) ATM its stupid to invest in expensive ManU defense and more stupid to invest in Rooney until he scores big for 3 consecutive matches at least.
3) ManUs defense is so weak for them to be playing an open game. Last time they were humiliated like this, they went into 1-0 wins mode which is a good thing for those wanting invest in defenseOpen Controls"ATM its stupid to invest in expensive ManU defense"
"which is a good thing for those wanting invest in defense"
Interesting.Open Controlsyou again!GRRR
Open ControlsEvans and Smalling are still ashout if manU go into 1-0 mode but jones is very expensive especially when City has good fixtures coming up
Open Controls
ur name says everyting about you bro
i agree with everything u saidOpen Controlsi assume u are talking about me fellow interista
Open Controls
who's a better shout over the next few weeks, cabaye or murphy?
Open Controlsive been monitoring cabaye for a while because of wc timing with newcastle fixtures and ba's absence. you know what you get with murphy. cabaye has more upside to return a double digit score IMO. it can be argued ba's absence will impact newcastles' scoring, im sure it will. but someone has to make up for SOME of his scoring.

cup opponent captained aguero, has ba, bale, terry, kompany and ramsey.

I have 19 points just lying to waste on the bench. Caulker,Dyer & Simpson.
Anybody doing worse?Open ControlsMorning Guys, my Drenthe & Jags investement went well, so I have decided to WC with BA leaving also... meaning I need 3 trades.
Team done, no Utd midfield or forward coverage I had Nani pre-WC for Bolton but... hes annoying me.
Any news on Jags? Im guessing he wont feature V Spurs???Open Controlsjags on crutches.
hard to think you go from crutches to PL-fit in a week. fingers crossed though. i, too, am a victim of everton investment.Open ControlsAt least I am not on my todd....
It made senses, as it happens they lost to Bolton and I can now only see them going same way V Spurs.
White Hart Lane was never going to be a rich picking area for an Everton Clean Sheet !Open Controls
Hi guys,
Which WC team looks best?
A)
Lindegaard (Vorm)
Enrique, Caulker, KOMPANY, CAHILL, SIMPSON
Silva, Nani, Bale, MOSES/MCCLEAN, WALTERS
RVP, Sturridge, Aguero
B)
Lindegaard (Vorm)
Enrique, Caulker, RICHARDS, JONES, SHOTTON
Silva, Nani, Bale, SURMAN, SESSEGNON
RVP, Sturridge, Aguero
C)
Lindegaard (Vorm)
Enrique, Caulker, KOMPANY, EVANS, SIMPSON
Silva, Nani, Bale, MOSES/MCCLEAN, WALTERS
RVP, Sturridge, Aguero
cheers!Open ControlsI take it you are happy for Lindegaard to play only every now and again????
I now De Gay was dropped last night but... he paid 18m for the guy, he will play - SAF wont punish him for longer as he is only young and it will kill his confidence.
So as long as your happy with that - crack on !
PS - Team C, but I am not convinced on sturridge.Open ControlsThanks for the reply. Yeah, to be honest, i'd prefer Yak, but i feel like i need some chelsea coverage, and don't want Mata.
Open Controls
after yesterday's display, i think you need to rethink about Lindegaard
Open ControlsNot really, the whole team was abysmal, and Lindegaard wasnt at fault for any goals. He has hardly put a foot wrong when he's been given a chance. The only thing playing against him is De Gea's price-tag and the criticism Fergie would receive for benching him. United will tighten up, i'm sure (i hope).
I do have enough to upgrade Lindegaard, but i would be happy playing him knowing that he won't play a few games, i havent done very well when benching Vorm anyway... 🙂Open Controls
One of the most frustrating managers I have ever seen has to be David Moyes....
Open ControlsI agree. He stubbornly sticks to a rigid system of 5 across the midfield.
Open Controls
what is the probability of drenthe not featuring vs spurs? hoping he doesn't as i have dyer 1st sub!
Open Controlsits certainly possible. I only have enrique to come in, so will take a 5 minute cameo and pray for something at this point.
naturally i have 5 points plus 1 or 2 bonus from kelly sitting behind enrique. 🙁
but yeah, there really hasnt been any details AT ALL about drenthe's "sickness". Now Donovan's already up and running. Drenthe may make the bench, but even then, game situation would have to dictate his need. moyes just doesn't seem to be in any hurry to add a THREAT to the attack. Just rely on keepers for your goals then, genius.Open Controls
anybody sick of Nani and Jones and thinking they are taking up funds that can be better used elsewhere? They have Bolton at OT but u never know what happens with utd these days. I have both and I activated my WC and I'm thinking of getting Kompany or Richards back to my team instead of Jones and maybe downgrading Nani to a mid priced mid and upgrading Ba to Aguero. Utd's fixtures after Bolton are tough and city have decent ones coming. Any thoughts?
Open ControlsThinking about switching Jones to Micah/Kompany, but wait for Nani after Bolton.
