Paul Having cast an eye over the form players for each of the six sides facing a double Gameweek, our second Members article of the week focuses on the Rate My Team ratings. As the weekend deadline edges closer and the transfer market picks up pace, we assess its findings and analyse the factors behind the rankings for the Gameweek ahead:
Bale all the way (C)
Choose one for DGW :
A- Tevez
B- Kone
C- Defoe
already have aguero
Tevez
Is there a new phase of homecrowd test starting today ?
Mata or Hazard?
Money no object. Lets get loads of responses.
Mata, got his rest lat night and Hazard started, more guaranteed of the 2 starts for the DGW.
I can't see either being rested for Utd or Spurs the games are too important Villa at home will see at least some rotation
Mata
Both will start both games. Hazard more likely to get points I'd say. Safer choice is Mata tho.
FAO PlayOn players: are there any good bargains for this GW?
Im aware of petric and lloris being cheap, but any others?
It's an absolute nightmare and I'm praying some low value defenders are in the starting line ups like for man city
Baines to Zabaleta and Fellaini to Mata for -4 points?
Yes, I did exactly these moves this week. For -4
i decided on feillaini + baines > mata + zabaleta for a hit. Decided against Luiz because he has united and tottenham so likely to concede in both and fixtures after are crap plus the final rotations risks. Zabaleta has easier fixtures for the double and nice fixtures after, no brainer for me
goal & assist + 3 BAPS vs Swansea and I won't need him to play another game this GW 😀
well he will concede in both games, and enjoy the fixtures after as well
why not? cos of richards....
Who would be the best Citeh defender to get in then?
Kompany or Hart. And I wouldn't be 100% certain on Kompany.
kompany will played 180 minutes but Zabaleta offers more going forward and i dont buy into the whole richards will play one game
Have you noticed how often 'hard', difficult', and 'not/won't be easy' pop up in a 'Arry interview? 🙂
"It's difficult you know. They're a triffic so it won't be easy."
Is there a reason not to sell Fellaini? Looks like he's set to stay deep.
-4 points?
Had a plan to transfer Turner/Maloney and RVP to Luiz/Mata and Defoe-due to price changes 0.1m out unless Maloney goes up tonight.
Have to ditch Maloney if I want Walcott to play and I was wanting to hang on to Fellaini-may change this now or get rid or Rafael.
Ah well will sleep on it and absorb some of the info later today....
..a day in the life of an FFS member....
I haven't watched that is nearly 10 years. What's happening?
I've never watched it. This has to be the funniest moment though.
Kevin Webster - under investigation for kiddy fiddling .
Ken Barlow - under investigation for raping some 15yr old.
Not in the show, in real life 😯
Ok so I took your brief straw pole and chose Mata over Hazard to replace Cazorla. Also did Vertongen to replace Baines. So -4 hit taken. Tempted to do one more, maybe bring in Walker, seeing as Riether and Turner are crocked
Robles
Riether, Sagna, Vert (Demel, Turner)
Bale (c), Mata, Michu, Maloney (Pieenar)
RVP, Lukaku, Tevez
So Shall I make the -4 a -8 and bring in another DGW defender? I have 1.1mill in the bank
You're not nervous, you're excited. Those aren't butterflies in your stomach, it's your feeling of excitement building.
If I don't break 100 points this week with this team then I never will have a chance:
De Gea
Luiz Clichy Dawson
Bale Mata Silva Michu
Aguero Lukaku Kone
Far from guaranteed unfortunately. A monster Bale(c) score would help though 😀
Is Vertonghen worth a hit? or any DGW defense worth a hit?
This is what i'm wondering, already took one for Vert, now considering Walker
I'd like Vert this week but I like Kompany more 🙂
I'll take my chance by bring in Vertonghen.
All usual good defensive options are rotation risks!
when are the pressers today???
I hate when we get messages like this:
"How am I looking this week guys
Hart
Luiz Kompany Vertonghen
Mata Bale(c) Michu Hazard
Aguero Lukaku Defoe"
Do these people just need re-assuring all the time?
Probably only when they post
Corky lad. What did we agree to do to our team? I can't remember.
I quite like rafa and alcaraz to kompany and vert, what do you reckon?
I'm sold. Unless you fancy a cheeky punt on Sir Kolarov. 😉
Kompany with Kompany or Vert? Can't remember how many city we have...
😯 you might need to interpret that...
😀 No idea how many we've got either, and finding out means logging in. 😯
I think we've got Yaya. Oh sheet, we've got Tevez as well if I remember rightly. Meh let';s just go with the initial idea of Vert and Bad K then.
I hate when we get messages telling people how much someone hates something.
Not always. Some are just showing off.
Agrred. Guys with 8/9 DGWers should feck off.
I have 4 🙁
chill out mate
Play De Guzman or RVP?
Seems wrong benching a DGWer and I'll be backing United against Chelsea so it'd soften the pain if he did destroy them
Play RVP.
If I do Fellaini-> Yaya/Nasri for -4 I will have to bench one of Cazorla and Benteke.
Currantly have 4 DGWers, no City cover.
Would you do that and who would you bench?
I'd keep hold of Cazorla and Benteke, both got good fixtures.
Could be scary against ML rival who has Nasri and Tevez and 4 more DGWers.
Link your team

Done Berba -> Lukaku
best player to pick up a cue?
A) Ronnie 'The Rocket' Osullivan
B)Stephen ''The Beast' Hendry?
The Beast?
More like The Insurance Salesman.
And the answer is Alex Higgins.
Ah, I forgot the Scottish bias.
I'm not talking technique here. Old robot Hendry was "a beast" but a very boring one.
Ronnie is a spoiled child and becoming rather boring with his tantrums and bi-weekly retirements.
Higgins encapsulated snooker. Flair and entertainment. He was only hampered by his own flaws and the consistency of Davis and Reardon in that era.
How am I looking this week guys?
Cech
Luiz Kompany Vertonghen
Mata Bale(c) Michu Hazard
Aguero Lukaku Defoe
🙂
don't fancy the chelsea defensive double up. nor do i fancy michu.
can you do cech + michu > hart + lamps/oscar?
On fire.
100 pt potential? Haven't decided on armband yet
Robles
Baines Clichy Dawson
Silva Maloney Morrison Bale
Benteke Aguero Kone
Bench: DDG Fellaini Sagna Riise
Morrison (c)
so tottenham and swansea havent had a penalty this season. strange things happen in a dgw however, syvain distin who had a record score of 7 gets 9,9, benoit assou ekotto gets a gazillion points in one game in a dgw, tim howard scores a goal. tim howard scores a goal! tim howard. the american keeper tim howard. scores a goal.
it's inevitable both get a penalty. and i fancy bale to step up if tottenham get one, like he does for wales now.
Cheers chap, great job 😀
Yeah I think Bale will take them too. As you say takes them for Wales, takes everything else set-piece wise. Only person I could see taking them instead would be Defoe or possibly Sigurdsson.
I remember Bale taking one for Spurs - and missing. After his practice for Wales, hopefully he's leaned how to put them away now.
In Europe a few years ago? I can't remember him missing (or even taking) one in the league.
Adebayor if he is on the pitch
The DGW is the Deuce's time 😉
Any thoughts on this guys?
A) Get lukaku in for Lambert and bench Benteke or
B) Keep lambert and Play Benteke
I think i'm going to do Rvp, Fellaini and Baines ➡ Aguero, Mata, Kompany for -8
A) would take it to -12. Thanks all
Is it not nearly 5am? I didn't reply this morning because I presumed you'd be asleep 🙂
it tis.
long story short, I layed my head down for a minute and ended up falling asleep around 8:45pm and woke up like 2 I t hink it was. now i'm finishing up some homework and trying to get my team sorted (both of which I would've already done if I hadn't fallen asleep).
B
A
Chelsea won't be at their best against United after last night I would of thought. But then again, United have taken their foot off the gas a little bit.
I'm saying 1-1
or 2-1 United, cause I support them 😆
random comment but the angle of bale's foot in the article picture is very interesting. no wonder he gets the odd right to left spin to bamboozle keepers
