Tottenham spring to life at the Madejski to bring the weekend’s action to a close. That gives us the opportunity to delve deeper, plunder the members area data and pick out the points of interest from the nine Premier League encounters so far…

this week: ddg + graham > jaask + berb (-4)
next week: fabio > demel
week after: fed > szczesny
how does that look fellas?Open Controls-
Not sure about dumping graham just yet. I am personally keeping him until GW8. He will come good....
If you are taking jaask tonight, make sure you can live with him. I reckon that there will be other pressing issues in the future rather than another wasted GK transfer. Just my opinionOpen Controls-
even if i have michu as well? just been frustrating to see him draw yet another blank esp when fletcher and berb are firing them in....
just pulled the trigger on jaask so i'm a bit stuck with him now. i'm happy enough with him. even if they aren't as tight at the back (though i'm hoping they'll be this season's swansea) he shoudl still get me at least a couple points for playing and maybe saves. better than getting 0 two weeks in a row from gk's!!!Open Controls-
i feel your pain with the 0 from GK's it has been a total frustration.
Look at Grahams next 4 fixtures...EVE sto RDG WIG he is the lone striker with little or no competition. They have also scored more goals than any other team in the league.Open Controls-
yes but he's been involved in just ONE of those goals. plus EVE will be tricky and sto could be a tough one too
Open Controls-
Hang tight man.....i really believe he will come good. I belive he is also first up for penos

Do not think Foster will make the rise tonight
Open Controls-
Na, no hope. He still needs 1000 transfers in 30mins

I'm contemplating doing Al Habsi > Foster, I know it seems like I sideways move but I fancy WBA will keep more clean sheets over the next 3...bad move?
Bear in mind I may take a 4/8 point hit with other transfers...Open Controls-
not if it's effectively gonna be worth a hit, no way
Open Controls -
no dont do it.....you need a break! Shut it down and sleep on it.
Open Controls -
Bad move imo.
If you have to, make it one of McCauley, Olsson or Ridgewell for potential attacking pts too.Open Controls-
^^^^^ this Olsson bandwagon starts here!!!!

Adebayor > Defoe (c)
Thoughts? It's his spot to lose, right?
Did AVB say anything post match?Open Controls-
i'd avoid both of them, m'self. can't guarantee they'll be playing every game, and spurs have some tough fixtures coming up (and they're not exactly firing on all cylinders anyway, despite today's result)
Open Controls-
I think they looked good, dominant.
I've already got Adebayor and a FT, so I clearly need to get rid. Being a Spurs fan it'd be nice grabbing JD especially if he's on form.Open Controls
-
-
AVB does not make rational decisions !!!! It was only Reading after all!
Open Controls-
He kept Friedel in based on form, right?
Surely Defoe stays then?Open Controls-
He kept Friedel because they owe the guy for long term service. I think they bought Lloris as a sucession plan.
He started Defoe over Adebayor because he is hard headed and likes to create problems in his own dressing room. He will be sacked by christmas....watch.Open Controls-
Then again, knowing AVB....he will drop Freidel for Loris and create even more controversy in the team..
Open Controls -
Disagree on all three points to be honest.
Friedel got MOM against Norwich, as far as I know that's why he stayed in - he's been at the club for a year, not exactly long term service.
Defoe over Ade probably because of fitness, we've also got no idea what happens at training.
And to be honest I think they'll do quite well, despite the rough-ish start.Open Controls -
Owe Friedel for his whole 15 months of service?
But I otherwise agree.Open Controls

Should I dump Torres for a hit?
Open Controls-
No way.....not for a Hit. Stoke at home is a reasonable fixture!
Open Controls -
I would want to do that? Only if have Hazard in your team I suppose... When it comes to goals/assists in Chelsea, Torres will be involved for sure. Chelsea won't be goaless in many games... Just my 50 cents.
Open Controls -
no. and i hate torres 😛

What to do with Kagawa...getting rid gives me more flexibility with choosing strikers. I've been playing 3-5-2 which hasn't paid dividends really. I'd be able to get the likes of Jelavic and Ba in if I switched Kags out. I was originally considering ditching McClean but I wouldn't earn enough to bolster my attack with that move. I know Kagawa is going to come good soon but I'm not sure whether I should have the patience while there are more bankable places to look for points.
Keep him or downgrade to go 4-3-3 and have three heavy hitters up top?Open Controls-
sorry that's meant to be 3-4-3 at the end there, not that it makes much difference.
Open Controls -
kags to guthrie/kaca and then upgrade your forward to berb/fletcher (assuming u already have rvp and tevez) and then use the rest to get baines and upgrade defs
Open Controls-
I only have Tevez, no RVP. I'm thinking of getting two potential heavy-hitting differentials, i.e Jelavic and Ba for a few weeks. I'd get in Ba (NOR) first then Jelavic (SOT) the next week. But it involves getting rid of Kagawa ultimately...wondering if it's a good idea.

Im getting rid this week. If anything United's next 3 games are pretty tough and there is every chance he wont start again or subbed off early due to CL.
But my decisions has never been worst so you might wanna do the opposite and keep.Open Controls-
Don't hold me to this but I strongly believe he will start most games, he was just rested for Champions league this week and his minor injury. He is a really good player though and Liverpool away (not too tough) and Spurs at home are not the worst. They look hard on paper but Man United can dominate games that look tough on paper. I think Kagawa is going to come good with goals, I'd be getting rid temporarily anyway.
Open Controls-
Yeah they probably only look tough on paper when in reality they haven't found form yet so not the worst like you said.
Reckon he is not the type of player that explode big, will probably be like Mata last season getting assists once in a while. I think I can live with that at the moment.Open Controls-
He may be an assists man but if you look at his stats at his previous club and over his short career he has scored lots of goals, in fact, an incredible amount for a midfielder, I'm sure his assists are very high too but it sticks out that he very much has an eye for goal...just something to take into account.

33 points with Baines to play. FT in tact. Thoughts as to what i should do with the FT?? Who should i get??
Mignolet Begovic
Cuellar Demel Davies Baines McAuley
Michu Hazard Santi Snodgrass Guthrie
RVP Tevez Fletcher
Cheers! 🙂Open Controls-
always click pcik team.. check out if you have a decent 11(which you do).. no need for a transfer.. Maybe Snodgrass to Somebody dependin on cash
Open Controls -
save it -- ride it out. Its a good team.
Open Controls -
Have 0.6 in the bank.
Open Controls-
Snod to Pienaar maybe.. nothing wrong with your team really
Open Controls-
WCded this past week. Must have a decent team. But look at the points!
Open Controls -
I was also going to point out snodgrass as a potential weak spot. His stats stack up, but those next 4 look a bit brutal.
Open Controls-
One goal scored for Norwich, he'll surely be involved.. Might be in for some bps.. Expect a Grasswagon in a few weeks..

Haven't been online at all this weekend, I'm guessing this has already been discussed: could Kyle Naughton be a short term bargain? He'll have home games against Villa and QPR over the next 3 GWs if Assou-Ekotto really is out for four weeks. I have 0.5 spare so I'm either gunna do:
A. S. Taylor ➡ Naughton this week and Graham ➡ Fletcher next week
or
B. Graham ➡ Lukaku this week.Open Controls -
Sorry, the site went down for me and it accidentally posted this twice.
Open Controls -
Current team:
G Vorm, Federici
D Gibbs, Cashley, Lescott, Cuellar, Demel
M Santi, Bale, Michu, Dyer, Yaya
F Pog, Tevez, Torres
Looking to ship out Lescott, Federici, Cuellar and/or Pog
2 Questions:
Top transfers in suggested?
Team Strenghth, Scale 1 to 10?Open Controls-
federici and cuellar can wait. Pog would be better as one of the "hot" 7.0 forwards (fletcher, berbs, lambert, even Ba if you can get funds). You could go Lescott to 4.0 (Gorkks, Fonte) and the upgrade Pog directly, or Lescott to WBA defender, Dyer downgrade, then pog upgrade. I don't think you need a 5.5 mid as your cheapest mid.

Noble 2 bps and Bale 3 bps was a huge but brilliant surprise i must say 🙂
Open Controls -
Do people think Friedel will keep his spot? Have him and Fed as my keepers so wondering whether to get rid of him as might have no keeper next week.
Also any forwards for 6.2? Want to get rid of PetricOpen Controls -
Mignolet (Federici)
Rafael Clyne Hangeland (Zabaleta Gorkks)
Bale Cazorla Kagawa Dyer (Noble)
Rvp Tevez Graham
0.5 in bank
2 free transfers
A) Zabaleta + Kagawa to Demel + Hazard
B) Zabaleta + Kagawa to Baines + Barfa
Pretty settled on A) as i get a big hitter and captain material in hazard, but i thought i'd take more opinions too.. thanksOpen Controls -
Honestly, this has to be my worst FPL week of all time, still have HBA and Baines to play though. Not sticking to crib, looking for a piece of advice or two
Jaaskelainen
Baines. Rangel. Saylor
Ben Arfa. Michu. Kagawa. Hazard
Graham. Tevez. Van Persie
Subs: Begovic. Guthrie. Gunter. Cuellar
Bank: 0.3 million

DeadZoners.. Ive pulled the trigger lads.
Needed to replace: DDG, Fed, Fabio, Cuellar, Larsson, kagawa, Graham...
Terrible week for me 🙁Open Controls-
Same here mate.. But can you make the best out of the price changes if you WC this week?? Don't expect many price changes tbh..
Open Controls-
You can maximize price changes just by picking form players. I don't subscribe to the belief you should WC in an International break to get more changes. People need to make transfers every week, and most do it the night before, so it doesn't matter how long the break between gameweeks is.

Half you team needs to go so not much choice, I guess. Good luck!

Jaaskelainen(Sunderland) or Foster(Reading)? CS probability, Foster easier fixture but Jaask superb form, which to choose?
Open Controls -
I've got no immediate issues to address in my team and have two free transfers so thinking Graham to Long. Seem okay? I'm sick of waiting on Graham to deliver.
Open Controls-
You could get Berba/Lambert/Fletcher! Why Long??
Open Controls-
Nice fixtures for the next . Odem's out so should be on pens and is guaranteed the full 90. I don't have any spare cash so getting one of those would require me using my other transfer and I'm happy with the rest of my team.

Alreet lads. What's happening? Damn, I missed the price drop for taraabt. He's out for morrison this week, should have done it this morning
Open Controls-
hey china mag! not much...
that's too bad! pulled the trigger for ddg to jaask myself before price changes
jaask, fed
baines, cueller, hangeland, boyce, fabio
hazard, hba, pienaar, michu, marveaux
rvp, tevez, graham
your team looking better or worse than that?Open Controls-
Still pretty similar
Jaask, Fed
Baines, Zabaleta, Boyce, Cuellar, Hughes
Bale, Cazorla, HBA, Taraabt, Marveaux
Tevez, Torres, Graham
1) Taraabt -> Morrison
2) Zabaleta -> Gibbs
3) Marveaux -> Guthrie
4) Fed -> Begovic?
Also look to get rid of bale, torres and graham when their nice fixtures dry up.Open Controls-
Did DDG - Jaask this morning, and still have one free left. After my planned transfers, I will have 2.2m to spend
Open Controls-
yeah pretty similar. you must be glad you kept bale! i dumped him and nasri for a hit (hba and hazard). had a feeling it would backfire but oh well i'm still happy with it.
all those transfers look good. is that the order you want to do them in? how much do you have in the bank now? could you get pienaar in for taraabt?
btw how do you think you guys will do against everton?Open Controls-
I could do pienaar for taraabt, rather than morrison. I will keep my eye on him tonight. Got 2.3m in the bank right now after downgrading DDG, so could actually get any mid up to 7.9m. Thoughts?
I can safely say that i have no idea how we will go tonight. We're pretty decimated in defence, but can still just about put out a strong team. We had some good performances last season, with people out, and our back to the wall. You would have to back an everton win thoughOpen Controls-
i'd go for one of pienaar, morrison, michu or a big punt on lennon. probably just go with pienaar though.
hmmmm, should be an interesting match. sadly i'll be at school when its happening :(. know if there's any good sites to stream if from?
btw, dare i captain hba over hazard tevez and rvp next week?Open Controls-

Was anyone persuaded by the "Stock Check" article yesterday suggesting that Tevez's stock is dropping (re: aguero coming back, taking off at 60min, CL rotation). I'm not saying I was, but it made me consider a Tevez to Jelavic or Podolski in a week or two.
Open Controls-
CL rotation for sure, i would drop him for Podolski soon
