With another seven days left until the deadline for Gameweek 4, there’s plenty time to ponder the numbers in our Members section. While some Fantasy managers still contemplate pressing the wildcard button, we take a look at some of the most notable attacking statistics on offer so far – in the first in a series of three articles, we begin with the defenders.
-
How does a backline of Vidic, Coleman, Collins and Sakho grab you?
Still waiting to get that 0.1 rise so that I can upgrade Chambers to someone elseOpen Controls-
Good, but would still wait on Sahko.
Maybe go Mert or KoschelnyOpen Controls-
Currently having Mert, can't have him anymore, 3 Arsenal
Open Controls-
-
No I mean, I currently have Merty, I'm on WC and have taken him out to get another Arsenal player.
So I have moved on from MertyOpen Controls

Wham def an option. Sam's team well organised and all that ?
Open Controls-
Sam's team is never far off from a clean sheet, so it's not a bad option, could just play 4 at the back or Collins infront of Sakho, if Sakho is not ready for a start
Open Controls

-
-
If Sakho starts its excellent
Open Controls-
Yes, that's the plan, I'm taking a big punt, but I don't mind it

Looks lovely if the front line is just as good :0
Open Controls-
Front line of the famous Tri-forwards
Benteke, Sturridge, GiroudOpen Controls
-
-
Excellent...although i still find the "you're dropped" conversation with Kolo to be a bit troublesome...Three clean sheets and looking good is a recipe for Sakho awaiting his earliest chance...Isn't it ? (may well happen due to Toure's injury anyway)..
Open Controls-
Before I prayed for Toure to recover from his injury, now I'm hoping he stays injured longer

Do we think Pool will finally concede 1st time this season against Michu & Co.?

Pick 3 out of:
A) Mirallas
B) HBA
C) Hernandez
D) Nani
E) Willian.Open Controls -
a) Enrique + Turner
or
b) Evra + WhittakerOpen Controls-
You're a on A vs B roll geez
A just because Whit isn't nailed onOpen Controls

-
To anyone participating in the draft league -:
a) Danny Rose - Defender
b) Grab a good goalkeeper in the 3rd round
c) Sakho - Defender
d) Nani's name
e) Suarez's name
f) Ozil's name
g) Just 2 striker spots available - Get them first
h) People forget about RooneyOpen Controls-
-
His name was available in Luís Carlos Almeida da Cunha , so it was very hard to find. Good to have this up your sleeve for the 5th round.

I play there too
Need to ask a Q
This is my midfield now:
Ozil. Lamela. Michu. Lampard. Mirallas. Hernandez. HBA
Nani and Willian are free agents. Should I sign any of them if yes then sell who?Open Controls-
What are you doing with 7 midfielders? In our league it was 10 players, with only 7 playing and 3 on bench?
I am guessing they are configurable...Were you playing draft between just 3 people or something, cause your midfield is too good. Nope, don't get Nani.Open Controls

Will you continue playing throughout the year? Or is it a one-time thing?
Open Controls-
I was here 2 days back, and Acqua told us all to jump in. Must say the draft was really fun.
Will I play throughout the year? I really don't know.
These were our teams -: http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/2013/09/05/rate-my-team-and-projections-updated/?hc_page=2#hc_comment_5488992Open Controls-
If it was a one-time thing, I'd have done it. Too much commitment for full season...drafts are always fun....nice team 😀

Anyone up for doing one now?
Open Controls-
Yep, just one time?

Can anybody please tell me what's this Ozil-Barry 2010 World Cup story?
Open Controls-
They ran for a ball that was about 20 yards ahead of Ozil and 10 Barry, the ball rolling while they ran to it.
Ozil got there first with yards to spare and set up a goal and left Barry trailing like a snail.
Think thats it anyway.Open Controls-
Ahh yes, I remember that game and that goal

Amoribeita guy, when is he returning?
FPL site says next week, but the site is almost always guessingOpen Controls-
Is he that good , i read few posts here abt him , people were curious to know his return date ?
Open Controls -
Does it matter? He hasn't played yet anyway.
Open Controls-
Threat to Hughes who i'm considering

A guy in my ML has a midfield of
Colback Downing Joe Cole Silva Pienaar

Open Controls -
Luke Daniels is the now go-to keeper for partnering with Mignolet, it seems
With enough investment, maybe even he will rise 😀Open Controls-
I've been trying to work this one out - is it because people think he's Foster's sub? Surely he's 3rd in line?
Open Controls-
It may not even be because he may start,
I certainly don't have him with that notion,
I was looking around for a 4.0 and found someone with some transfers in % and a positive bar on the TotalFPL progress bar 😀Open Controls

CONTROVERSIAL PLAN FOR ALL PEOPLE PLAYING THEIR WILDCRAD..In life the more money you have, the more you can buy. The same is true in fantasy land. If all the players on wildcards worked together we could all increase the value of our team. Here is the plan. We all buy the same players (happy for suggestions) that we really don't want in our teams. We split our purchases across days to make that players price rise. If we can get the player to rise by 0.2 in value for the next gameweek, we can then all sell before the deadline and make a 0.1 profit. This could work for as many players as you want, either one or even 15 if you want, but the trick is working together on a set plan. Spread the word people, this could work if we get the hundreds of thousands of people of wild cards on board. Use social media, let your mates know, lets get this revolution started and make some serious profit that can help all our teams. Let the commenting and player suggestions begin

Are there 35000 people on this site wildcarding? No
Open Controls -
Ok...A few things
a) I was going to sleep, but after you dreadful post, I'd to reply 🙂
b) NTI Target for a price rise - 68000. You need 136000 people for a price rise. Also 136000 is not good enough. It needs to be a cordinated effort - 68000 on one day, and 68000 on other. If it's 100000 on one day, then you need 68000 on another day.
c) NTI Target for a price fall - Based on ownership potential of player. Hence varies a lot. But much less.
d) BEST CASE SCENARIO - 68000 people out of 136000 people sell him. Player value falls by 0.1. then the remaining 68000 would not have got any profit. WORKAROUND - You can all sell him on day.
Good luck coordinating all that. What a shitty post to end the day.
Goodnight -: zzzzzOpen Controls -
A more reasonable tactic would be for us all to transfer in a 4.0 with very low ownership, then transfer him out. When his price falls, we transfer him back in. Since rises are done by absolute numbers and falls are done by percentages, we could get our nonplaying keepers for a discount.
Open Controls -
Only half of the WCers would get the profit - the other half would be needed to help with the second rise - so they'd get no profit. Can I be in the half that buys the player for the first rise?

Most definitive movie list I have comes across. I don't like imdb list just a bunch of users voting. This list is voted by journalists. Though no Ingmar Bergman films in the top 20 makes me angryOpen Controls-

There are some good ones, there are also some absolute stinkers on there IMO
Open Controls-
@Samaael - If you have quality additions to make to that list, drop me a note, here or there. Let's see if we can make something of that list.
Which are the stinkers btw? Beware you are going against the community now 🙂Open Controls-
Holy moly werkmeister harmonies made it. Who recommended that one? That is my favorite movie of all time. I remember seeing taking of Pelham 123 or something? I think I have seen that one and remembering it just being a stupid action flick of no significance? I could be wrong. I dislike it's a wonderful life. There are others but I'll probably make people crabby. Others to recommend: Wild strawberries, Solaris (tarkovsky), stalker, autumn sonata, ah Hasard Balthazar, Jules and Jim, pickpocket, the naked kiss, night of the hunter, The passion of Joan of arc ( I watched on 35 mm absolutely incredible), ordet

F.A statement: "His injury has not progressed as had been hoped and it is now clear that Sturridge will not be fit".
Am I a nerd for finding this complete grammar FAIL offensive? Haha, but seriously though, the actual F.A released that.Open Controls-
Tokyo Story. You usually watch black and white films thinking to yourself: all the cast are dead. This cast are all still alive- they're in their 90's. Amazing but Japanese do live longer than anyone else in the world.

Tried to post something like this earlier but it didn't get through the filters 🙁
FFS! Discussing one community member's, possible, duplicity is no longer allowed by the community police? How does this make us a community when we can't talk about each other, good or bad, openly?
Talking openly and discussing rights and wrongs is what makes us strong. Talking about the good and, possibly, bad amongst the community is what knits us together so we can become a community instead of some homogenised, sterile piece of uselessness.
I hate to bother Mark via email again, as he enough to do, but this is truly pathetic... yet again 🙁Open Controls-
I don't have another team. That team posted in July was some random guy for which i apologised last month, and yesterday again
There you have itOpen Controls-
I think the point he's making is bigger than whether you have a second team or not, most people couldn't care less about that.
Open Controls -
Thanks for saying this Nate, as it clears up loads iro this incident. Truly, cheers!
That's not my point though, it's this policing whereby we are not allowed to discuss anything remotely controversial that gets me. It's like we're treated like children and can't sort out or own problems.Open Controls

That won't bother Mark 4Vets. You can email me via him if you wish.
Open Controls-
I know ILF, and Mark is always wonderful in the time he gives to concerns. I am just disappointed I still have to email about concerns when all this stuff can be handled by you Mods when/if things do get out of hand here. You are all intelligent enough to realise when things get out of hand and can deal with it. I don't understand this blanket ban of subjects.

Right, I know plenty of people don't believe in attacking "coverage" but...
If you HAD to have a United midfielder/attacker in your team, other than RVP, who would you have?
I'm leaning towards Fellaini despite many people's insistence he will play defensively. How defensive will he really need to be V Palace at home for example? I think amid the glamour signings of Ozil, Lamela etc, people are forgetting what a threat this guy is. Welbeck is tempting but I just can't bring myself to put him in ahead of Giroud, Benteke or Soldado - midfield options are far more flexible.Open Controls -
Not allowing discussion about posters sucks... Cheats, liars and trolls deserve all they get... They also deserve a chance to defend themselves so alert them, don't block the accuser. I really am losing interest in this forum.. 😐

I agree with this on another level too. Not trying to play the old "I've been here for ages" card, but back in the day when I was lurking the banter and ribbing between the posters was hilarious and created a great atmosphere.
Open Controls-
I've walked that line for years. There is a different vibe here these days- a bit more... sensitive?
Open Controls -
Yep. They used to have sensible conversation. Even the off-topic conversation was quite level headed.
Now its just kids craving attention for most part.Open Controls

Nate actually got his post deleted for saying he thought Arsenal would beat Spurs 2 weeks ago.
It was deemed "trying to wind Spurs fans up"
Not only was his prediction right, but if he got that deleted then the stuff on him should automatically get deleted as it is "winding Nate up"Open Controls-
There's a way you say things which can change the context in a lot of ways. If Nate wrote 'Arsenal to defeat Spurs 1-0', I would be horrified if that was deleted. If instead he wrote something to the line of 'Arsenal to defeat those feckers who just spent 100 mil, 1-0', then that completely changes the context.
I don't remember what he wrote, but yes I do trust the scouts on moderation.Open Controls-
haha what? feckers? 100mil?
