As the dust begins to settle after last night’s match at the Bridge drew a line under Gameweek 1, we cast an eye back over the 11 matches played out. In particular, we analyse some impressive attacking performances at the back and, crucially, highlight a number of protagonists who stood head and shoulders above many of their team-mates last time out from an offensive point of view.
feeling really punty with this WC team:
Foster Boruc
Zabaleta Coleman Shaw Wilson Chester
Silva Mirallas Ben Arfa Barkley Cabral
Soldado RVP Lambert

Which 4.0 from Cardiff is the safest? Brayford, Turner, John?
Open Controls
None apparently, are you on WC Pep?
Open ControlsThinking about it...
Open Controls
right now turner. john looks temporary for the suspended (and now unsuspended i think) andrew taylor
Open Controls
Brayford. Taylor replaces John soon for sure, and I reckon Hudson and Brayford will come in for Turner and Connolly respectively.
Open ControlsHudson was the clubs player of the season last year if I'm not mistaken. Brayford was also signed for (relatively) a large transfer fee and the gaffer said he was the best RB in the championship last year.

Repost:
Okay I am having a disaster.
Mig Ivan Koscielny Turner Brayford
Coutinho Walcott Hazard Kim Barkley
RVP Anelka Lukaku
Already used my FT doing Jedinak > Barkley.
How do I sort this mess?Open ControlsFirst of all you should of replaced Lukaku. Jedinak was a perfectly viable 4.5 mid...
Open ControlsNow you have to replace Lukaku AND Anelka...
Open ControlsI know 🙁
-8 hit?
And which two strikers to take for 13.4m?Open Controls
Is Maiga a worthwhile replacement for Anelka??
Open Controls
I'm sorry but what a terrible use of a free transfer! That is a very problematic team you have there.
WC might have to be considered?
Either that or just hang on to Lukaku and hope he improves and play 5 in midfield this weekend.Open Controls
No carroll returns soon a we are looking to flog him to buy another striker
Open Controls
Anelka has caused a real problem 🙁
Open ControlsWhat is every else's plan (who owns him)?
Open Controls
Tell me about it.
Open Controls
what? i have him in my team, whats happened?
Open Controls
Yeah FPL is the main concern when your brother dies
Open ControlsHis brother died?
Open Controls
And his agent.
Open Controls
🙄 Actually yes. When a complete stranger that I don't know anything about dies somewhere in the world... my FPL team is still of greater concern to me. People die, constantly. If we were sitting worrying about everyone who is dying right now and prioritising our unwarranted grief over everything else in our lives we couldn't function.
Open Controls
Wildcard
Open Controlsthinking so. But no, never!
Open Controls
Chamakh?
Open ControlsIs he retired or not? Just gone cus his agent died?
Open Controls
repost- this was my team for the first matches, got me to top of my league so thanks people who gave advice from this site! what changes would you make?

The midfield is really punty, why not invest the 2.9 to make it a bit stronger? Good def and killer front line...

Going on holiday so can't change team for gw3
Boruc (Davis)

Coutinho Wally(c) Mirralas Nolan (Jedinak)

5m in bank..When I come back I'll be downgrading Coutinho and Doing Chamack-RVP, sound OK?Open ControlsWildcarded cos of le sulk
Is this decent

Already done a -4, Anelka dropping in price would derail my transfer plans. WHY FANTASY GODS, WHY?!
Open Controls
Hearing that Anelkas agent died yesterday. Not sure if this is true or not
Open Controlsconsidering they lost 2-0 i thought brady came out of the chelsea hull game with some credit. 5 completed dribbles, a shot on goal, dominated set-pieces and was played in 2 different roles showing flexibility (good for starts).
Open ControlsI've got my eye on him, good be great value
Open ControlsHow did Koren look in comparison?
Open Controlshad a pop shot and other than that you would have been forgiven for not realising he was playing
Open Controls
Want to get Silva in for citys good run. But who would you sacrifice, Hazard, Coutinho or Walcott?
Open Controls
Tempted to bench Ivan for Chester home to Norwich.
Open ControlsHmmm, not so sure about that. Hull could easily get a CS against Norwich where I think Chelsea will concede.

Alot of people saying it's Townsend (yes i know hes playing tonight)Open Controls
already got a -4pt hit, anelka is out and my 5th mid wont play. Should I do a WC?
Open Controls
Thsi is such a mess it's untrue... horrific 60pt first GW, now Anelka-gate...
Boruc
Terry / Turner / Toure
Cabral / Hazard / Walcott (vc) / Coutinho / Mirallas
Lambert (c) / Van Persie
Mannone / Anelka / Brayford / Ward
0.5m in the bank, already done Lukaku > Lambert. Any obvious -4 I should do?Open Controls
Hi IMNASTICS , I;m looking you for a while 😀
I lost the link to your script, can you post it again?
==========
Terry --> Zaba ?Open ControlsHey mate, the script is here:
ttp://userscripts.org/scripts/show/152008
Terry > Zab is probably top of my list right now... thinking it'll pay back the 4pts over the next 2 weeks easy.Open Controls
Lukaku and Hazard > Silva & Dzeko (-4)
Yes or no?Open Controls
is using your WC this early really a better idea than taking a hit? some of you folk are bonkers
Open Controls
im taking 2 hits....one this week and one next week. That is the price we pay for 4DGWers and 90pts in GW1
Open Controls
Sorry if I'm raining on the Dzeko parade but does anyone else here suspect that Negredo is going to start the Cardiff game instead of Dzeko? I know Pellegrini has been praising him and all but, after the match on Monday night, didn't he also say something about the importance of each of the strikers getting 90 mins...?
Open Controls
think he'd be silly to bench dzeko after he played so well, will put major doubts in dzeko's head of it happening all over again!
Open ControlsOr perhaps Pellegrini thinks that it would keep all the strikers on their toes by giving each a chance to show why they should be consistently starting?
Open Controls
Ok everyone.
Pick 5 results for next GW.
I reckon:
Man City WIN
Everton WIN
Southampton WIN
Hull DRAW
Newcastle DRAWOpen ControlsStoke win
Citeh win
Nor win
South win

Southampton win, Sturridge first scorer double. £11.38 back for every £1 from El Garitero

about to check how much scott sinclair is. would probably take him being on penalties to ever buy him though
Open Controls
Think both Morrison and Dorrans will be above him in the pecking order for penalties.
