With the Monday night Old Trafford clash remaining, we take our regular raid into the members data to pick out some key numbers from the Gameweek so far. This week’s digging reveals not only some of the leading figures from the weekend but also some early key analysis as double Gameweek 36 preparations pick up pace.
-
Looking for advice on my WC team:
Hart Elliot
Baines Vertonghen Cuellar Hooviveld Figueroa
Bale Mata Toure Sessegnon Maloney
Kone Tevez Defoe
Some players a bit odd I know but gives me strong GW 35 and 37 first 11s and 10 double game week players for GW 36.
Have put quiet a bit of thought into it and planned week by week but can't help being underwhelmed looking at that side. it's a wrench to give up all the reliables. Bear in mind I will have 2 free transfers in GW 37 so can get RVP in for home to Swansea or whoever else is flavour of the week.
So thoughts? On my midfield and attack in particular??

How long will suarez's ban be? I hope at least 5 matches maybe more. The trouble is, Liverpool haven't really got anything to compete for in the league.
Open Controls-
Ballotelli got 4 for his stamp a while back IIRC. Zidane got 3 for his headbutt. Shouldn't be more than 4 on that logic.
Open Controls-
What did Barton do to get his ban? I can't remember exactly what he did but he got a ten match ban didn't he?
Open Controls-
Elbowed Tevez, kneed Aguero and tried to headbutt Kompany. Then got a red, which was his second red of the season which automatically meant a 4 match ban. So it was basically an additional 8 matches from the disciplinary review (he got 12 in total). I struggle to see Suarez getting that many.

I think I just cracked my GW 36 team...
Have time for some of the transfers so hopefully wont have to take much minus points... but this looks decent enough even if I have to do it this week...

Prefer the -4 one. Still dont get why youre losing Robles?

What was Defoe's punishment when he bit Mascherano a while back? Was there as much furore about that as this Suarez incident?
Open Controls-
yellow card and no fuss

Probably the best explanation of it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/t/tottenham_hotspur/6076094.stm

I didn't see that incident, but I would assume that Defoe was somewhat provoked whereas Suarez was not. Also, Suarez has previous.

Tevez or Aguero?

After his horrible performance today? Doubt Mancini loved that sloppy attitude

I can't recall ever having my transfers forced so much.
I have to get Giroud and Suarez out, and I have to get Bale in.
Can anyone convince me to go with anyone else other than Kone, bearing in mind that I'll also get Tevez?Open Controls-
It's Kone or Lukaku in that price range.
I'd go for Kone.Open Controls -
Good move..with so many potential iffy picks Kone is at least nailed on...
Open Controls-
A part of me really wants to take a punt on Ba though.
But yeah, I'd be annoyed if Ba only played one game.Open Controls-
Exactly the same boat Trigg. Fired Giround to Tevez, will sit tight and think over the others but it looks like at least 2 hits for me now.
Open Controls

Defoe, maybe a risky Ba

My 'relentless attack' on Psychobingo was meant to be tongue in cheek, I didn't think he'd get so angry about it.
I stand by what I said about Suarez though.Open Controls-
Suarez seems to have the temperament and attitude of a child.
Open Controls-

Why not? I think it's a reasonable opinion to have considering the circumstances.

Too subtle for me.

Im not angry at all. Ive just grown tired of your countless posts stating pretty much the same. In your mind you might think youre beeing funny and "have a right to do so" just because Suarez did what he did, but you have got to try and understand that things like that grow old, so fast. We`re all agreeing with you about todays actions, theres no doubt about that. What more do you want? Im even inclined to agree with you on most counts of your statements about the man. I just wish youd stop making 10-15 posts on the same matter for each post that pops up on this site.

Suarez & Giroud > Aguero & Tevez (-4)
Can't afford this after Tevez's rise, if I wait I'll have to opt for Defoe/Lukaku/Kone instead of one of them.
End of the season punt?! 😉Open Controls-
It is a punt! I think Aguero will just play one in the DGW, but if they both start at the weekend, it could be profitable right away.
Open Controls-
Yeah the thing is I'm not really keen on either of the 3 other options I mentioned. Defoe is probably the most tempting choice but not assured to start, and Spurs have tricky fixtures...
Open Controls

-
So Aguero is definitely gonna be fit for West Ham game?
Open Controls-
Who knows 😛
It is a gamble, and oh so tempting... Will probably not go ahead with itOpen Controls

Right then - Gervinho out for Yaya or Nasri? Think Yaya is the most likely to play all 3 upcoming league games, but Nasri seems to be finding the net more often
Open Controls-
i'm going yaya

So looking at doing Cazorla-Bale and Suarez - (someone under 8.0 0r 7.5 if i get walcott)
This would leave enough to do Sissoko->Walcott next week
So who out of 7.5 strikers (already have tevez & rvp)
A) Benteke
B) Kone
C) Lukaku
D) Ba (but get michu instead of walcott)Open Controls-
b

Rate my wc team:
Hart*/Mccarthy
Vert*/Luiz*/Figueroa*/Hooiveld/Martin
Mata*/Yaya*/Bale*/Walcott/Cheap(don't know yet)
Defoe*/Aguero*/Kone*
about3.0 in bank!Open Controls -
Righty... it seems that getting Tevez in tonight, if you need the cash, is a good thing... but why bring in Bale or xyz if they're not rising or the player you're selling isn't falling?
I don't get why people are taking hits so early when anything can happen during the week.Open Controls-
Waiting as long as possible is best
I'm avoiding any transfers unless there is price rises... .1's shouldn't matter too much at this stage but I need it still to keep up my lovely midfieldOpen Controls -
Because a lot of people are doing: Santi+Suarez > Bale+Tevez. One is falling and one is rising of those 4.
Open Controls-
Yes... but I already covered that in what I posted...
Open Controls-
Oh yeah, I see. But basically I think the only reason is because of price changes. The few people that are doing transfers which aren't affected by price changes tonight are probably doing it because they haven't got the time to keep checking FISO this week.

Well, most ussual transfer is Caz->Bale and Caz is dropping.
Still, value is not that important at this stage, so people should overlook that 0.1 loss.Open Controls-

So, 2 FTs.
I am selling Sissoko deffinitely and Gerrard or Cazorla.
Buying Bale is not a brainer and then I am left with 5.3 for midfielder.
It should be Maloney, right?Open Controls -
azip should play next games doesnt he? no other right back in chelsea... looking for the most nailed def from che
Open Controls -
a) Cech + Kompany
or
b) Hart + Ivanovic?
Not keen on Vert since already have DawsonOpen Controls -
Any idea how much Santi is going to drop by?
Open Controls -
Will Jevans survive not falling tonight?
Open Controls-
i think so
Open Controls

Please help a fella out, poised and ready with my wildcard... any advise on this team??
Hart (Robles)
Luiz, Clichy, Dawson (Sagna, Barnett)
Bale, Mata, Hazard, Fellaini (Maloney)
Tevez, Defoe, Lukaku
Please and Thanks!Open Controls -
Rooney and Sissoko out Bale and Tevez in. No brainier right? Had to be done tonight.
Please help...Open Controls -
Suarez going to fall tonight too. Mass exodus.
Open Controls-
I can afford the drop, just did Giroud > Tevez, so I'll wait as long as possible before an eventual Suarez > Aguero transfer
Open Controls-
Did the same Chris, sitting on Luis 'til I work who to draw in. I'll probably get Kone, he'll get sent off next GW, Suarez won't get banned! 🙂
Open Controls-
Haha. I'm thinking of gambling on Kun, not really tempted by Kone/Lukaku/Defoe (Will get Maloney and already got Bale)

Santi falling tonight, feck, thought he was protected.
Open Controls-
I don't understand price pritectiin any more. Seems that his % was reset to zero when his flag came off, but he's not protected.
Open Controls-
I think maybe it's because he wasn't flagged for 2 days. So a flag removal would reset his NTI but not offer price protection

One dilemma before bed.
I'm chasing in my mini leagues and I know the leaders are likely to copy me with who I get in this week. Planning to get Nasri and Vertonghen as differentials who I don't think are in their plans. Do I get them this week and risk them drafting them for the doubles or hold a week and risk missing any points this week?Open Controls -
What a load of tosh....Tory MP on Sky news (what the papers say) saying "our footballers should be role models for kids"....Why?....silly sod...
Open Controls -
If Fellaini continues to play in a holding role, is it necessary to transfer him out? Will he be pushed forward anytime soon?
Open Controls -
I'm in a ML with monthly prizes and need to make the best team for May and take the penalty in April. What's the best team for May with a 101M budget if I sell all players?
Open Controls-

The prize for one month equals the buy-in. With my overall score long gone this is my best play.
Open Controls

Robles, Figueroa, Scharner, Maloney, Gomez, Kone ..... 😉
Open Controls -
I planned to get Rooney out this week, but I'm stuck with him now, as I need 2 FTs just to sort out the other 2/3 of my misbehaving strikeforce.
I was going to get RvP back in for GW37, shall I just stick with Rooney now? Rooney to RvP in GW37 seems like such a waste of a transfer.Open Controls-
Not when hes going for Golden boot 🙂

Ivanovic or Luiz for next week and DGW?

Ivan caught rabies, so play him.
