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.

sinclair at WBA anyone?
Open Controls
Thinking about it
Open Controls
Absolutely, lets see how they do in the weeks forthcoming. Part of his appeal when at SWA was his PK attraction. I would suggest that a 6.5 mid or below will emerge soon and give us all some budget relief. Sinclair might well be one of them.
Open Controls
I remember him at Swans and he was a very good player. Give him a few games to gain match fitness and get to know the team and I'm sure he could be a good prospect
Open Controls
How would this WC team look ?
Mig Boruc
Coleman Toure Whitaker Toure Shaw
Silva Mirallas Nolan Barkley Toure
Aguero Benteke Soldado
Haven't confirmed but what you thinkOpen Controls
benteke will have a great season but dunno if hes worth the blank in gw3
otherwise looks pretty solidOpen ControlsHaha yeah
Open Controls
If I was to wildcard now and put in all the players that are gonna rise tonight/tomorrow night, I do receive their price rises before the next game week right?
Open Controls
Yes.
If you plan to sell again to make cash, keep in mind that you only get 1/2 of the amount they increased by when selling.
E.G.
6m starting, rises to 6.2 or 6.3, would only sell at 6.1m
rises to 6.1, would sell at 6Open ControlsYeah wont be selling for cash yet. I just need Zaba in before his price rise asleep as Nolan and Silva mainly because of their fixtures.
Open Controls
Anyone know if Scott Sinclair will affect James morrisons playing time? Now that anelka is gone I'd guess WBA might play 4-5-1. Are they in the same position and who is the better option for 6.0?
Open Controls
West Brom tend to play 3 attacking mids, of which, Morrison is the most nailed.
Open Controls
who will almost definitely go up/go down in price before the next set of matches?
Open ControlsUp: Benteke, Barkley, Zabaleta, Silva, Nolan, Mignolet
Open Controls
aye
Open Controls
Best replacement at 7.0 for Anelka?
Open Controls
I'm in 2 minds about whether to bring in Sinclair or not. Has been over a year since he played proper football 😕
Open Controls
GW2 dilemma
Play enrique or ward or chester ? already playing migzOpen Controls
Chester, home.
Open Controls
What to do with this mess?
Cech(Boruc)
Coleman,Rat,Toure(Chester,Ward)
Hazard,Coutinho,Mirallas,Walcott(Kim)
Anelka,Lukaku,Soldado
I have no idea what to do.. way to early to wildcard right?Open Controls
Its not too bad, i hope you are playing boruc next week?
lukaku could start vs man united. i would do a 4.5m gk and lambert( in for anelka) -4Open Controls
Will Sinclair play this weekend or too early?
Open ControlsZaba is secure for a while?
Open Controls
Scouting for a 4th mid for 5.0...options so far:
A) Kim - had a good pre season, somewhat dodgy fixtures.
B) Brady/Koren - Hull looked half decent vs Chelsea, didn't get ravaged as I thought. These 2 are decent.
C) Redmond - Also good pre-season, played 86mins. In doubt of holding his starting spot imo.
D) Barkley - young talent, great first game, but will he keep his place?
Any other legitimate 5.0 or lower players you would consider playing week in week out?Open ControlsDon't mention the one I emailed you.
Shhhh....Open Controls
Ravel Morrison (but only after his price has dropped)
Open Controlsbarkley has a good chance of playing this weekend by the sounds of it
Open Controls
There are not really any 5.0 midfielders, including the ones listed, that I'd consider playing week in week out.
Open ControlsWhich of the ones listed would you prefer?
Open ControlsKim's fixtures are a worry. He took a while to settle into the Championship and judging from his first game he may do so again in the Premier League.
Redmond is a decent shout but once Pilkington's fit I wouldn't expect Redmond to be nailed on.
Barkley, if he can keep his place, will be a great pick. His solid pre-season/opening day form + the fact he is almost directly competing with Gibson who is average might mean he will hold down a spot but it's not certain.
Out of Koren/Brady, Brady looked the better pick vs Chelsea and in a 4-3-3/4-5-1 he was the most advanced with Koren playing deep, then he moved wide in a front 3. He also took more control over set pieces so he'd be my pick.Open Controls
True, but a Rvp/Benteke/Soldado front line with 3 mega milfs require it.
Open Controls
I'm going to enjoy myself rotating Kim / Koren and see how I get on.
I think this could be Barkley's breakthrough year, he's got to start playing someday.Open Controls
Peter Whittingham
Open Controls
ON a WC?
Open ControlsNo. Part of my future transfers to get RVP.
Haz > 5.0, Jecko > RVP.Open Controls
barkley would start this weekend even if gibson was 100% i reckon. issue is anything less than another good performance and you'll be sweating over the next team sheet
Open Controlswhittingham seems like a budget lampard. deep midfielder now but dominates set-pieces
Open ControlsWhittingham better than Kim?
I thought Kim was really attacking in comparison.Open Controls- Open Controls
My 5 GW plan in tatters as a result of price changes in the first week 🙁

Fulham - arsenal predictions? il take 1-0 arsenal right now I have triple arsenal could either get off to a good gw2 or a poor one, looking forward to that early kick off
Open ControlsWorth an eight pointer to do Kos + Terry + anelaka > Zaba + Mbiwa + Aspas/RvW?
Open Controls
probably but i would have 2 man city players as they have gd game weeks coming up to reap the rewards of an 8 point hit
Open Controls
Woah. Just got back home from the beach.
Glad I avoided Anelka. What's the deal there? 😛Open ControlsAguero to start against Cardiff?
Open Controls
Who more nailed on in the long term, Nasty or Zaba?
Open Controls
Zaba - Pellegrini may be impressed by Lescott and could well become first choice alongside Kompany.
Open Controls
Mark has RVP alongside Weimann (6.0) and Anelka (5.5).
Major surgery required methinks 😕Open ControlsMark not scared of hits though.
Open Controls
Who is Man Utds best option in Midfield?
Want to do Lukaku ---> Soldado
Harzard -----> 7.5m Mid
I have no Utd player in my team and there is value in their midfield
Any other 7.5 Mid worth it? Have Coutinho, Walcott, Miralles, KimOpen ControlsGotta be Tony V hasn't it?
Open Controls
Who would you have ..
Silva, Dzeko or Aguero?
and probably captain also.Open Controls
