With Fantasy owners of Luis Suarez and Olivier Giroud scouring the market in light of their recent suspensions, focus is falling on those forwards with a double Gameweek 36 amongst their respective schedules. Romelu Lukaku and Arouna Kone have both arrived on Fantasy radars over the last few days and, as the Fantasy transfer market picks up pace, we analyse their performances over the last six Gameweeks.
greetings, FPL wizards.
suarez > kone instead of tevez. master stupid or masterstroke?Open ControlsJust for the record - I am no FPL wizard.
However, I've got both - had Kone before, brought in Tevez for Suarez.Open Controlstevez is just irresistible, eh? good for you to have both.
Open Controls
Meh..... I'm not liking it 😕
Tevez is just a beast, he's not had the best season but I'd back him over Kone every timeOpen Controlsdon't think he will be rested against west brom? Wigan will fight toot and nail to avoid relegation, and i don't think Martinez has the luxury to rotate his stikers like Mancini.
Open ControlsOf course there's the chance of rotation no doubts.....but he's the most likely to start (just about). And Tev could out score Kone with just one game anyway.
If you look at Kone's stats they aren't that great at allOpen Controlsalright, tevez is surely the flavour of the week. and next week. play it safe, i suppose. thanks mate.
Open Controls
The only thing is Wigan will definitely score goals against Brom and Swansea - two teams on the beach - if not explode in typical Wigan late season style. Surely, surely Kone will be involved in most of the action FPL wise and indeed on the pitch
Open Controlsthat's what i'm thinking.
Open Controls
Option A all out attack dgw approach?
Vorm
Kompany-Luiz-Vertonghen
Bale(c)-Hazard-Michu-Walcott-Silva
Defoe-Aguero
Jaaskelainen-Wilson-Anichebe-Pearce
£0.7 left in bank (-16)hit
Option B the conservative dgw approach
Vorm
Kompany-Jose Enrique-Vertonghen
Bale-Hazard-Michu-Walcott-Fellaini
Defoe-Van Persie
Jaaskelainen-Wilson-Anichebe-Pearce
£0.6 left in bank (-4)hit
I have a 37point lead in my mini league and want to deliver a coup de grace and get it over with what to do AorB?Open Controlsno love for tevez? i think team B is too conservative and will suffer in DGW36, but i don't like players in team A for a massive -16 hit (aguero? silva?) i may be wrong, but surely there are other players to consider in team A (tevez, maloney, kone, dempsey, mata..just saying).
Open ControlsSomething does not smell right to me about that Tevez bandwaggon for some reason i might be worng tho and might jump aboard myself yet.Aguero and Silva are being overlooked big time for this dgw these lads could explode anytime they would be amazing diffs if they come in
Open Controlssame here, not totally convinced with this tevez bandwagon yet.. silva is a good shout if he plays. imo kun if available will be rested for the FAC final.
Open Controls
0.1 short of doing bego > hart & suarez > tevez. argh!
Open ControlsOuch. You shouldn't have let Tevez rise this much before getting him in.
Open Controlsdown that route i guess 🙁 benteke > tevez next wek, perhaps. blessing in disguise for me this week, i hope so. 😉
Open Controls
best route to city defence imo, some might say komp. i have zaba but i fear he will be rested against west brom.
Open Controls
Mark, still haven't heard back from you via email !
Let me know what's going on. Ta.Open ControlsI doubt Mark is awake at 5.30 am and if he is it will be to look after the baby...
Open ControlsCheers. Will repost this in 3 hours then 😆
Open Controls
Now that you have a cup crown is your eliteness solidified? 😉
Open Controls
Morning lads
Interesting read that, but would anyone take Kone or Lukaku over Defoe? (I have Maloney BTW)Open ControlsAs I have maloney I wouldn't touch either. Kone might have tempted me otherwise. Lukaku and WBA are too risky imo, they have nothing to play for and Lukaku as a loan player is no longer required.
Open Controlsthis is what I thought, It's why I lean towards Defoe. He has something to play for.
Open Controls
+Defoe.
Open ControlsDAD is thge worry with Defoe, but he should get minutes and he has something to play for. I'll get him tonight or tomorrow if Mata starts tonight
Open ControlsNah Defoe will start from now on... Adebayor is crap.
Open Controls
i would take kone over defoe.
Open Controls
ddg to hart
sissoko to maloney
afro to mata
caz to hazard
suarez to defoe
rooney to tevez
(-16) this week
how do those transfers look?Open Controls-16 😯
can you not spread those out over 2 weeks?Open ControlsNo point. A 16 point hit costs the same as 2 x 8 pt hits. And he might as well do it this week if those players have a good fixtures this week. Maybe save one next week (no hit). But I guess he needs to do them all to make the funds work
Open Controls
All transfers look good apart from Afro > Mata .. Hazard is enough for Chelsea cover.. stick with Afro for Fulham(H) game..
Open ControlsI don't like chelsea mids. The rest look good. I'm thinking of taking a 16pt hit this week too
Open ControlsI've just posted something twice, detailing my woes. And they never appeared on here. Weird. Replies seems to work though
Open Controlsmaybe you used inappropriate language? 😉
Open ControlsWOAH!! You must be right. Tried posting the same again as a reply, and still nothing. I can't for the life of me think what language would have been innappropriate though! Or there any weird new regulations that I have missed? I'm trying to ask what players I should get in to try and block my rivals wild card
Open Controls
why not? should be nailed on given they need to win every game possible to qualify for the CL next year and they have two tough games for the double so can't afford to be rested.
what's your 16pter looking like?Open ControlsCrap fixtures, and I can't imagine rafa not continueing to rotate.
If I didn't have to worry about my rival, I would probably do De Gea, Wilson, Santi, Suarez, Berba > Hart, Vert, Nasri, Tevez, Defoe
But not I need to think about who he will bring in and try and block himOpen Controlsfair enough. which do you prefer? http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2013/04/24/scout-scribbles-suarez-accepts-fa-charge/comment-page-4/#comment-5658622
well how are you going to figure that out? just get the best options, as he'll probably be going for the best options as wellOpen Controls
Pretty stupid if you ask me.
Afro, Sissoko and Rooney can stay for 1 more week...Open Controlssissoko for another week? 😯
and rooney needs to go to free up funds for the other moves. plus tevez looks to be a good option this week. and rooney has returned 10pts in the last 4 games. hardly worth 12.0, esp when he has ars away this weekOpen ControlsWell Maloney has a much harder fixture than Sissoko this week.
Afro has a great fixture, and Rooney loves playing big clubs..Open Controls
Good Day Gents!
1 Hit this week & 1 Hit next week.. 7 players for the double game week 36..
Hart*
Davies* Sagna Turner/Demel
Michu* Mata* Bale(c)* Walcott
Kone* Tevez(vc)* RVP
Don't want to take any more hits to bring in Spurs/Chelsea/Wigan defenders..
looking good? any advise is much appreciated.. thanks!Open Controlsno hit for Kolarov?
Chicken 😛Open ControlsHart is enough for Man City CS cover I think!
Open ControlsNo. Not when there is Aleksandar.
http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/deal.gifOpen Controls
Was'nt aguero on the bench at the weekend? couple that with dzeko startin 11 of the last 14 and there's no guarantee that tevez will get THAT many minutes over the next few imo.. would get him for free, but maybe not for a hit and maybe not for rvp
Open ControlsGot him for free for Rooney. But i think he's guaranteed the most minutes of any of the City strikers, he's in form right now.
Open Controlsthat's the kind of stuff i want to hear as the only way i can get him in is for a hit(for mirallas) or for free(rvp) and wanted some backing 🙂
Open Controls
Defoe as an impact sub? Makes my decision easier then.
DEMBA BAAAAAAAAAAOpen Controls😀
Open ControlsI'd rather have Defoe than Ba
Open ControlsI'd rather have my grandmom then Kone.
Granny passed away 15 years ago BTW.Open ControlsBah...I mean Ba.
Open ControlsBa just doesn't appeal. Not nailed on and doesn't actually seem to be doing a lot when he does come on. Even off the bench Defoe tends to do damage
Open Controls
I don't have Kone. I'll probably get Defoe in tonight unless Rafa makes an unexpected call and benches Mr. Mata
Open Controls
fail. lemme try this again
ddg + caz + sissoko + rooney + suarez > hart + bale + mata/hazard + tevez + defoe (-12)
how does that look for this week?Open Controlsnext week: baines + afro + berba > kolarov + mata/hazard + kone/lukaku (-8)
Open ControlsFirst one is great, second one I don't like.
A second Chelsea mid is not a priority IMO, and kolarov is of course borderline silly.Open Controls
Anything over 4 points needs serious consideration and certain guarantee of points recovery.
Defoe is unecessary and smacks of the kneejerkery on here.
Bale and Hart, I can agree. CHS are a risk though and have tough fixtures in the dgw. I'm thinking of leaving well alone.Open Controlswell selling Suarez to anyone is only -2 to begin with
Open Controlssuarez and rooney need to go. and defoe frees up funds for other moves.
Open ControlsLast roll of the dice though. No use sitting on the fence.
Felli I can't play in gw 36. Leaves me with Walcott(qpr) and Berba(READ).
😕Open Controls
Who here is hoping that 1 of the City strikers picks up a slight knock ruling him out for 2 weeks?
Open ControlsThis!! and Torres and Adebayor!!
Open Controls
I'm not sure I'd recommend getting rid of DDG and Caz. They aren't essential to get rid of, the other 3 are.
Open ControlsTina, when we finally clicking confirm on Berba > Defoe?
Open Controls😯
how have i ended up at that exact transfer?Open ControlsI dunno. Still mulling over that one.
Mata is tempting me for Swans(h). Waiting to see how they line up for Europa.Open Controls😯
I am thinking along these lines, this is highly unusual.Open ControlsMata + Haz will both play 90 imo. But yeah..
Open ControlsYeah, chelsea milfs will prob be rotated for Swans(h) as the DGW fixt are important for Chel.
Just have to hope Wally does ok vs ManU I suppose.
Just have a feeling Chel will take Swans appart.Open ControlsNah. I think complete opposite.
TheOpen ControlsThey will struggle for goals, having to bring on Haz/Mata late in the game for a 1-0 victory..
Open Controls
This is one of those weeks where nutcase uptions such as Kolarov & Torres and be reasonable options. All that is required is some thought provoking post which makes them sound like sensible picks.
Open ControlsTalk to TW, he'll tell you all about Kolarov. 😉
Open ControlsThe Kolarov bandwagon is insanely tempting.. pretty sure i'm gonna end up with him.
Open ControlsI dont even think Torres would be mad enough to put himself into his fantasy team
Open Controls
Jafa, how is our joint team looking for this week
McCarthy (QPR)
Dawson(wig), Martin(sto), Wilson(NOR)
Bale(wig)c, Walcot(MUN), Fellaini(FUL), Lampard(SWA)
RVP(ars)vc, Tevez(WHU), Lambert(WBA)
Subs: Maloney(TOT), Demel(MCI), Harte(QPR), DDG(ars)
0FT's $0
Any ideas?Open Controlsmy team for GW 35 all set up.. i'm willing to take a hit for GW 36.. what transfers would you make..
For GW 36
Robles (DDG)
Baines Dawson Nasty (Rafael Sagna)
Bale Wally Michu Maloney (Fellaini)
Rvp Mirallas Kone
0.1 in bank
Would you (for -4)
A) Mirallas + Baines to Kolarov/McAuley + Tevez
B) Rvp + Fellaini to Tevez + Mata/HazardOpen ControlsOR
C) Rvp + Mirallas to Tevez + Aguero 😯Open ControlsWell that would be the way to go, gives us 10 same players + Nasty vs Clichy 🙂
Open Controls😯 Cant wait to see Aguero @ the weekend b4 decidin.. prob gonna have to make early transfers this week(sat night), which i hate doin as all my plans are price dependant
Open ControlsYep Aguero is a difficult one.
Bit easier for you as you can definetely keep Mirallas this week and then ditch next.
I'm thinking I need to do this Berba => Aguero this week or forget it.
Might be overthinking, but if I think this week and Berba + 4 points vs Aguero, I just might take Berba.
Then next week Berba has Reading home and Aguero might not get much more than 90 mins..but then again, Aguero could be great differential..Open Controlsi'd wait till the press conference friday and get Aguero - *if you chasing. If you ahead in your ML he seems a risk too big.. he's burnt me all year
Open ControlsAguero being on the bench and not comin on even when trailing 3-1 means he is'nt fit.. if he starts this weekend though i shall be beyond tempted
Open Controlsyep 100 % true and worrying
chasing in season ml, but leading in monthly competition, so might play safe and just keep Berba.
Bit tired for him tough.Open Controls
Hello my "twin brother".
Really don't know which one, Everton boys are difficult because they have such a good fix again gw37, so ideally would like to keep Baines & Fellaini.
Propably B) out of those.
I'm thinking Rvp, Berba, Caz => Tevez, Aguero, Bale (-4) this week and then Mirallas => Kone gw36.
Gives me this for doubles
Robles
Baines, Clichy, Dawson
Bale, Michu, Maloney, Walcott (Fellaini)
Tevez, Aguero, Kone
Obviously not happy to lose Rvp, but can't really find another way to get Bale in this week.
Also that Berba => Aguero for a hit is killing me, not sure it's worth it.Open Controlsholy hell twin.. check out my newly added C) option.. gives me your team yet again 😯 . and i'm kind favoring that option atm (depending on aguero's fitness)
Open Controls
Grandmaster Flash the legend
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsTJaP2tC0AOpen ControlsHave exact amount for these transfers... the stars aligning?
Berb > Kone
Schneiderlin > Maloney
GJ > Kolarov
Bego > HartOpen Controls-8 or -12? kolarov may not start this week
Open ControlsWould be (-4) for 1 this week, (-8) for the other 3 next week.
Allows me to keep Fellaini + Baines for GW37. But no Vertonghen.Open ControlsI don't like it.
Open ControlsMe neither. 😆
Open Controls
that means you'll have to make transfers saturday night since you got exact amount of money. that makes me not like it.. plus the transfers lack a bit of that explosiveness
Open ControlsI don't see the point of keeping someone like Baines for the WHM game, because frankly the other 2 games are almost certainly 1/2 pointers for him. You could get Vertonghen for example with better fixtures and a DGW...
And Fellaini has had, what, 2 shots in 3 games? Hardly the option he was earlier in the season.Open Controls
Is it worth 4 point hit?
Rafael or Enrique ----> KompanyOpen ControlsAnyone has Lewandowski captained 😯 ?
Open ControlsA) Kone + Kolarov
or
B) Defoe + DaviesOpen ControlsB) just because I don't like Kone
Any way you can get Defoe AND Kolarov?Open ControlsWork your magic.
Try to get Hart, Kolarov, Vertonghen, Maloney and Defoe into my team without losing Baines. I give up!Open ControlsJust lose Baines.
Open ControlsExplosion imminent. Plus Baines > Kolarov for a hit even with the DGW is ridiculous.
Open ControlsExplosion imminent with those fixtures? I don't think so.
Open Controls
Prioritize Defoe, Maloney, Vert, and Kolarov.
Hart is not really a pressing need imo...
And yeah, if you want all of those, you'll have to lose Baines.Open ControlsI was leaning toward Hart being more vital than Kolarov... no?
Open ControlsDo you want a double CS or a double CS with FUN and EXCITEMENT? 😀
Open ControlsBut Kolarov will only play 1/2 🙁
Open Controls
Love the name 😆
Khaleesi done good 🙂Open Controls
I would love to check out this club
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QilYy09A-dIOpen ControlsZep... lurking by any chance?
Open ControlsGood Morning!
If Evans, Hazard, RVP are all likely to play this weekend I will save my transfer and do Kebe->Maloney next week and Lambert to Lukaku (-4). However if any of those 3 defenders are unlikely to feature I will do Harte -> Dawson (-4) to ensure I have 3 starting defenders this GW (I have Harte and Turner) and next GW do Lambert->Kone.
What do you think?Open ControlsRight at the moment I will def have the following dgwers:
Hart
Bale
Michu
Maloney
Tevez
I'll play single gameweekers Martin, RVP and Walcott in 36.
This essentially leaves me two possible defensive slots and either a mid or a striker for the dgw, with Fellaini, Baines, Sagna, Remy being potentially expendable.
Who would be the best options, and how many? All transfers would be next week, with one free.Open ControlsMartin will concede, anyone else?
Open ControlsHome to Villa's a decent chance of a cleanie. Not sure a -4 to any doubler would be worth it for him.
Open Controls
defensive spots: vert, kolarov
mid: mata/hazard, dempsey/siggy
forward: defoe, kone, lukakuOpen ControlsVert, I like. Had pencilled him in. Not sure on Lolarov - will make do with Hart.
Tempted by Mata/Hazard, but tough fixtures and possible rotation.
Dempsey/Siggy - gametime worries. Lennon is back.
Defoe and Kone both decent options. Worried over Lukaku gametime and motivation of West Brom.
Thanks - I think that's about the sum of the options really. Will think on it.Open Controls
Will Kolarov start during the DGW? Why hasn't he been starting? I feel like it wouldn't be a safe bet at all!
Open ControlsBed time. Night all.
Can someone kindly let Mark know I'm awaiting an email reply?
Cheers 🙂Open ControlsKolo Toure confirms city exit.. one less rotation worry for nasty then
Open Controlsnot leaving til the summer though..
could be a good fantasy asset at another PL club next year perhaps?Open Controlswont leave till summer but mancini has no reason to play him now.. though playin lescott to renew his contract seems even more important now
