Paul Having rolled out a Selection Guide to Goalkeepers earlier this afternoon, we now switch focus to the Members Projections for our search for the men between the sticks. While Joe Hart predictably sits out on top, we focus on value in this first Members article, examining those keepers who are expected to deliver the best points per million ratio for the season and the first six Gameweeks…
ivanoic or cole
hangeland or ???
for every week selection
Huddlestone is getting me thinking again...
huddle'stone' been going to benoits barber i see
Demel nailed on for West Ham?
Can Swansea Replicate the "Poor Man's Barcelona" game this Season?
Different manager means a high likelihood of different tactics. So I doubt it
Will that hinder the chances of Michu becoming a fantasy stud this season. Opening game weeks are mouth watering
You never know, Swansea could actually be better under Laudrup than Rodgers. But I don't rate the club high enough to take the plunge on any of the players w/o first seeing them in action.
Need some advice guys. Team is currently a familiar one. 2m in bank for the inevitable torres > rooney
Jussi (Bego)
Lescott Cashley Hangeland (Demel Cuellar)
Noble Hazard Bale Taarabt (Maloney)
Torres Aguero Graham
My question to you is should I Cuellar > Clyne to free up .5 needed to do Cashley > Vidic/Baines in gw3. If so, who’s the better pick. Vidic more consistent cleanies but Baines on set pieces, assists and pens. cheers!
Ok guys, 4th draft here and I think I'm happy with it bar two things (no Spurs defence and lack of United midfield). Defence rotates well. As does the midfield which I tried to balance to allow for a heavy hitting front 3. All comments appreciated thanks!
Vorm – Jaaskelainen
Clichy – Cole – Hangeland – Cuellar – McCartney
Nasri – Pienaar – Larsson – Michu – Noble
Aguero – Torres – Adebayor
Transfers for GW2: Cole + Torres --> Fabio + Rooney
I wouldn't worry about no spurs defence tbh. Not sure about Nasri but i like the rest
a) Clichy & Fonte
b) Rafael & A Hughes
c) Rangel & Hangelaand
Friedel, Federici
Ivanovic, XXX, XXX, Cuellar, McCartney
Sorry got caught on last post:

Replied on last page. Also i'd have McClean over larsson. He was so much better than larsson last year when they both played
True, the Nasri situation and Mclean/Larsson will be sorted nearer the time. However if Larsson is on penalties like rumored I think I'll take a piece of that
The onlyway Sunderland score on Arsenal is via a set piece of some sort, or penalty. McClean is a decent lad, but his game is highly predictable and easily scouted. He won't have Mertesacker tripping over imaginary grass goblins next meeting I'm sure. Choose wisely.
Well there's no Ade deal yet so I'd take him out until something goes through. Freidel is probably easiest spurs defence to fit in. United midfield is minefield at the moment, Tony V and nani are only 2 id consider for wk1.
Ade-> Bent/Tevez
Vorm-> Freidel
The midfield and defence post your Cole transfer scares me
You gotta ask yourself if Aguero will score 50 pts more than Tevez, but then also account for the upgrades you could make with that cash elsewhere
for example - would rather have BAE + Siggy + Tevez ($24.5)
than Cuellar + Nasri + Aguero ($24.5)
So while Aguero might net you 50 more pts than tevez, the added benefit of a BAE over a Cuellar should sway the decision
RMT vol2:
Fed DDG
Clyne Ivan Lescott McCartney Cuellar
Mata Taraabt Pienaar Maloney Silva
Pog Rooney Torres
Hazard will? This chelsea midfield makes me want to get Nzogbia for Mata and replace Pog, but noone safer to replace with
Maybe neither
I can't see Pienaar being regularly involved in goals
Good player but never been a great fantasy performer
He was awesome when he went back to Everton on loan last season
But he never has been before (as a fantasy prospect not as an actual player).
Everton also scored a LOT of goals for them over that period - which if they keep it up he'd be a great pick but I'm not sure they will.
A) De Gea, Cerny, Bale
B) De Gea, Federici, Siggy/VdV
🙁 can't decide
The Spurs playing here must be pretty much his stongest available
Why is McCartney appearing in loads of teams all of a sudden instead of Demel have I missed something?
It's a question of who seems the most nailed on
McCartneys a left back
I like Demel's fixtures better
Repost
De Gea/ Federici
Clichy/ Hangeland/ Cuellar/ Wilson/ Demel
Bale/ Kagawa/ Michu/ McClean/ Noble
Aguero/ Torres/ Graham
2 mil for Torres to Rooney
very nice team. Clichy and Kagawa need a bit monitoring I reckon, but you are very close to having a superteam to begin the season with.
Only 1 Chelsea player for the dgw might want to change Bale to Hazard/Mata
I plan on transferring Torres out at the end of GW1 I don't think it would be worth taking the hit to transfer a Chelsea mid out as Bale for me is absolutely essential for GW2-GW5
Bale in Hazard/Mata out week 3 for me standard Torres-Rooney week 2
I figure Bale will have a better shot in GW2 against West Brom than Mata/Hazard will against Newcastle. Though i understand you won't want to take a hit.
You are probably right Bale will prob score better week 2 than a Chelsea Mid it comes down to will Bale score more in his game against West Brom than Mata/Hazard will in a dgw
nicer last name?!

Rate My Team...
Cech
Lescott, Jones, Clichy
Pienaar, Van Der Vaart, Dyer, Lampard
Graham, Aguero, Torres
Begovic, Clyne, Fonte, Guthrie
Plan to have Lampard or Torres as captain for GM1 then will be transferring them both out after GM2 and replacing them with Young and Cisse.
Which Jones is this Phil Jones?. Lampard better options available he will be playing a deeper role so you'll be relying on him for penalties look to upgrade to Mata. Upgrade Van der Vaart to Bale possibilty of Van der Vaart rotating with Siggy.
Jones looks likely to be involved with other united injury doubts... although these doubts could lead to goals being conceded
Yeah, Phil Jones. I really like Van Der Vaart, scores goals, gets assists, takes penalties etc... think he'll be more likely to get more minutes now that Saggy Face has gone (kept taking him off early last season).
Point taken over Lampard, I've actually got 0.5m left over so could upgrade to Mata. Will definitely consider it, cheers.
Asking again whether anyone has any advice on:
A. Bale and Tevez
B. Pienaar and Aguero
B would free up .5 so I could then replace Lampard with Bale for the 2nd or 3rd week.
Morning D-Zoners.
Evening
hangeland, clichy, koscinely, jose enrique or anyone else for a permenant defender
ive got cashley or ivanovic as my first defender sturggling with my 2nd one
thoughts
Vidic
thattreblefeeling do you have anyone else for the draft league and if so how are you going to do the draft?
Not yet First post on it here this evening. Discussion will have to be had on the Draft rotation alright make it as fair as poss
sounds good i'll try to advertise a little too. 6 player cap?
Yep think so for launch season anyway make it easier as far as transfers are concerned. Was thinking we'd use the league Forum for transfers so you'd have to check other participating teams from previous GW then post your transfer
So who is everyone now favouring Mata or Hazard to begin with?
Doesn't matter after GW2 when they turn into Bale
Hazard > Lampard > Ramires > Mata
Why do you rate Mata so low?
Lamps is a rotation threat and playing deep, Ramires has a friendly abroad 3 days before the League kicks off (and is an unspectacular fantasy option to say the least).
Mata is out of the Olympics 2.5 weeks early, is Chelsea's best player, and who's got set pieces in his locker. He's in my team before any of the rest of them
Well honestly its a crapshoot with the chelsea midfield. I'll reserve judgement til the community shield. However in my opinion Fat Frank will start and play 120min+ wk1. I can't wait to see Hazard play and I'm sure he'll start the first game at least. Ramires is the fittest man alive so if theres any possible way he can play, he will. Mata will be sacrificed imo to show off the new signings, he's been to 2 tournaments this summer, granted he played very little. I like Mata but i think he's my 3rd or 4th choice for the start of the season.
Mata now he's back early. With Big Ivan.
both 8)
fail 😎
Pretty split then
do u think Ba is gonna play in the starting eleven this season?
100%.
Couple of slight changes, thoughts on this team would be appreciated, I'm pretty happy with it as it stands:
Friedel/Federici
Rafael/Clichy/A.Cole/Gunter/Cuellar
Kagawa/Lampard/Pienaar/Noble/Britton
Torres/Aguero/Petric
2.5m in the bank, planning on Torres-Rooney and Lampard-Bale in the first week or so.
good evening everyone-
after a number of year in work and friends leagues, thay have told me there secert of how thay get there ideas from when thay play fantasty football. so hello, i am now at last here.
Hi Chris welcome hop on over to Gravatar.com get yourself a nice little picture to go next to your name you will find more people tend to reply if you have yourself a nice little pic to acompany your comments for some reason
My AVB alarm bells ring louder. Bale up front, a position he will not play this season. Slow, unbalanced looking. Its past the stage of using friendlies to get fit, its about getting your side working together. Siggy has been awful, Lennon likewise. Not impressive so far.
Bale has been given the number 9 shirt hasn't he? while i don't think he'll play as a striker is there a possibility for him to be playing in a more central position?
My major problem with that, is why play one of the best left sided attacking options around out of position. Put a specialist cm in there, thats what they are for.
played a couple of games through the middle last year. dont really see the point of it, he's lethal on the wing and the have VDV and siggy now to play in the hole. can't see him playing there when the season starts
We don't have any strikers yet. Defoe had to return home, Kane just played 90 mins vs. Liverpool and VdV is injured (shock). Won't be the case in a couple of weeks time.
Chill Winston.
just playing around with a top heavy team , thoughts?
