Paul This evening we roll out the final article in our three-part series assessing the stand-out attacking statistics over the first three Gameweeks. Having cast our analytical eye over the Defenders and Midfielders, we turn our attentions up front.
Any love for Leroy Fer out there? Haven't seen him in action as he was suspended for the first match.
Would love some thoughts on my team.
Mignolet (daniels)
Coleman, Walker, Enrique, Zabaleta
Lamela, Arfa, Ozil (pennant, ward-prowse)
Benteke, Soldado, Giroud
0.5 million in the bank
Gabbidon on the bench in the backline
Nice team. Think the CS will dry up though.

Hadn't realized Pascal Evans posts on this site. The guy is an FPL legend.
Correct, slow start but will beat most of us yet again.
He will have to do better than 36 to beat me.
hey guys last questions for the day..
a. soldado & coutinho
b. sturridge & lamela/eriksen
thanks in advance!
A for me
I like B
A
Give me A
B because I'm worried about how involved Coutinho is in Liverpool's most promising attacks so far this year. That being said, there is no way of knowing what kind of output you will get from Lamela or Eriksen, but I am keen to get Eriksen myself if he plays in the hole.
A for now
B, with Lamela (assuming Danny is fit)
Acqua, I am 9 points behind you...my TE already has 10 points but it looks like my other dude is injured. It will come down to the wire!
RMT please guys
Boruc
Ferdy/Vidic/Collins
Lamps/Wally/Eriksen/Naughty
Giroud/RVP/Benteke
JWP/Chester/Turner
Are you on your WC?
Yes I am sir.
Don't get Vidic and Ferdinand, if you want good Man U cover go for Evra, he'll probably get the most minutes of all of the Man U defence, his attacking potential as a defender is as good as any and he is only 0.5 more than Vidic. Lampard isn't assured of starts and is in a slightly withdrawn role, meaning he will probably only get goals from penalties. Other than that I quite like it.
Vidic + Ferdinand + Lampard -> Evra + Enrique + Hernandez maybe?
Thanks for your input. I think Evras a good idea. I just wanted double clean sheet for Palace but I know it's probably not a good move going forward.
Whu da hell are Ferdy and Naughty?
Sorry. Rio Ferdinand and Arnautovic.
Who is Naughty?
A little too punty in the midfield, no? Two unproven EPL / FPL players in your starting team. I'd go with maybe just one.
Doubling on Man United defense - I like that. It's different.
Also, who is your back-up keeper? Playing Boruc in all games may be tricky.
Doubling on united defence isn't a good idea IMO. There's hardly any flexibility when you have the 2 of them. Also you're fecked if they have a blank gameweek or a difficult fixture.
I just wanted to capitalize on a United cleanly vs Palace. Then maybe ship Ferdy.
Back up keeper is 4m no player. Just so I could do a competitive RVP side. I know what you mean with two unproven midfielders but I can't find much in their price range I fancy.
Kim Deal and the gang 😉

Ha ... as cool as Kim Deal?
Missed the boat to WC this round and now I am stuck with injuries and a -4.
Currently team is:
Boruc Adrian
Coleman Toure Mbiwa M.Turner Ward
R.Morrison Silva Wanyama HBA Walcott
Sturridge RVP Benteke
My swaps were Coutinho > HBA and Dzeko > Sturridge.
Were my moves the right moves? Not so sure anymore because of injuries. Hopefully they are 'international injuries'
Moves are done now so no good to go back and thin if they were the right move. That team looks pretty tasty for this week!
Hope so, providing the injuries are not real to my key players. Always worrying about the players you don't have rather than the ones you do have, ie Ozil, any Spurs player, any MUFC/ARS defender.
How's your team looking?
I am on a WC so it's looking better and better every day 😀 Just waiting for all the internationals to finish and injuries to be flushed out.
Lucky you! Can't wait till this break is over to finally see a RVP captain not fail. Captained him every week so far. Robin not so reliant haha.
Him, Benteke and Walcott are just about the only players nailed on in my WC.
I like those moves.
You can't have more than two premium mids atm with RVP and two strong strikers in the team atm. You'll need that flexibility in the future.
Coutinho is disapointing so far FPL wise and HBA has good fixtures. Prefer tekkers to Studge despite LIV's good fixtures.
Yeah Coutinho wasn't doing anything. Now watch him destroy it being played in the middle and with LFC's good fixtures. I have both Studge and Tekkers. Was going to do Giroud instead of Studge but opted for the other and now he may be injured..... LFC always let me down in FPL!
Total score in FPL so far: 101pts. And I benched a player who scored 17 points 😆 Trying to get a clue.
Hey guys long time lurker first time poster.
First off, how y'all doing?!
I'm currently on a wildcard but would love to hear some thoughts on my team, and possible changes.
Mignolet - mcgregor
Enrique, zabaleta, vidic, Dawson - Chester
Oscar, Hernandez, Walcott, silva - colback
Soldado, giroud - maiga
$1.9 in the bank (wanting to bring in Suarez when his back)
I don't know if I should keep vidic or spend .5 less and get ferd. Stick with Oscar or go cheaper in lampard, or more expensive and get lamela. Cut silva or stick with him. And take a punt on sturridge with his injury or keep soldado??
(Mignolet, Enrique, zabaleta, silva and colback I've had since day one)
Would appreciate the feedback. Cheers!
Selling Andy Carroll
Newcastle's best personnel move in the last 5 years?
Feel bad for the Hammers.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/west-ham/10297661/Andy-Carroll-adds-to-West-Ham-United-injury-crisis-as-15m-summer-signing-suffers-foot-injury-in-training.html
Yes, but looked what the've done with the proceeds, bought half of the mid-table players in Ligue 1 and slid down the EPL table...
Oh, I'm well aware. Good friend is a Geordie die-hard fan. Ashley ownership has been a train wreck.
You might like to see what was happening the few years before he took over.

Pick 2 from:
1. Ivanovic
2. Zabeleta
3. Ferdinand
4. Evra
5. Terry
6. Enrique
Which ones are nailed on and have the most attacking opportunities?
Thank in. Advance
Enrique and evra
Ordered from best to worst IMO.
Evra, Enrique, Zab, Ivanovic, Terry, Ferdinand.
Difficult to split the top 3 and all of the top 4 have excellent attacking potential.
Terry is a concern of rotation. Same with Ferdinand.
If I were to choose long-term probably Ivan and Zab because of their managers defensive approach to some extent.
Evra Enrique. Just for nailed on-ness. Not for who I think is best. That would be Zab and Terry.
Pure class by IL Fantasista:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dvV6-smX1Y
Lovely
sorry but another question, Snoddy or Zabaleta?
How is that a choice?
Pretty tired, night DZ
A) Giroud+Walcott
B) Walcott+Ozil
C) Giroud+Ozil
Morning folks, how we doing?
Was just going through the projections, koscielny and paulinho are predicted to do really well for the next few weeks.
So would you you do Ivan >> koscielny (-4)..I don't think chel will keep too many cleanies over the next few gw's, gettin rid of him frees up funds, allows me to upgrade kim to a 7m mid next gw
Since Everton have struggled to score goals, I would say keep Ivan for another week and make these transfers next week.
I'm not looking to get rid of Ivan before eve and then Fulham at home and probably not afterwards either.
His attacking potential is worth any risk to CSs imo UN.

I think Yaya is more assured of game time.
Agreed. But to think that Lamps can get more gametime under Mourinho and on pens as well tempts me.
Other than Lampard, who else would you suggest for Chelsea's coverage.?
Toss up between Hazard and Oscar I guess Mubin. I like Ivan at the back for CSs and attacking.
Lampard, he might miss the odd game, but every time he plays you know you are going to get a good show. First 3 games this season watching Hazard with expectation only to see a foul and Lamps step up for the free kick.
Please rmt my punty Rvp team
Vorm (Price)
Chiriches , Nastasic, Yanga-Mbiwa , (Wilson, Chambers)
Lampard, Lamela, Ozil, Ward-Prowse, (Pennant)
RVP, Negredo, Sturridge
Lots of risk, but I really like the balance - thoughts on starters?
Potential Team for Week 4 :
Boruc
Chester Coleman Iva Mert
Mirallas Silva Theo
Giroud(C) Sturridge Soldado
Bench :Nolan Kim Murner
and no, not on a WC
Had to WC, couldn't withstand Silva and Studge injuries added with Dzeko and Mirallas losing form.
Any suggestions to the new squad?
Migs (Boruc)
Coleman Zabs Mert Rio (Chester)
Wally Lamps Hernandez (WardProwse Delph)
Tekkers RVP Giroud
Very close to mine. Just not sure on Rio but I am guessing you money is pretty tight.
Not sure if this is useful, saw in fiso forum:
"Regarding Ozil and his protected status, I emailed FPL about when Ozil prize can be expected to raise and got this response.
Hi
Özil's price will not change for the first Gameweek that he is in the game. Any changes to his price will be affected by transfers made after the Gameweek 4 deadline. This is done so that new players to the game to not have massive price changes just for joining the game.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes.
Regards,
Fantasy Premier League Support"
Not sure if this applies for Lamela as well.
Will apply to all deadline day signings.
Whats happening , Anything?
For those whoi wished they had wildcarded ,you mat as well do it nyway , havent missed many price rises so if your teams no good may as well hit that button.
You know you want to 😀
My keyboards gone feral , types what it wants
Agree. More about avoiding fallers imo, which can still be done.
Think i need a WC? Already took a hit.
Cech Marshall
Coleman Lescott Murner Clyne Chester
Walcott Nolan Hernandez J.Cole Kim
RvP Sturridge Benteke
My mids are: Wally, Hernandez, Hba, Brady and Ward-Prowse.
I have 1 mil left in the bank and don't really want to change defense and attackers. Suggestions on possible moves?
Fairly template, but would still love it if you could RMT
Mig, Boruc
Kosc, Coleman, Walker, Collins, BTurner
Yaya, Flampard, Theo, Hernandez, Brady
Studge, Benteke, Giroud
Unsure on Yaya and Lampard myself, but not sure who's safer and better. Any thoughts?
Lampard is the better FPL choice. Should play more games, on corners, FKs and pens and a natural goal scorer.
Should say ''most games'. Yaya will play more games.
I would loose Yaya from that team. Not a great FPL option after all.
thoughts on this wc team
boruc
ivanovic chester enrique
walcott lamela benarfa brady
rvp benteke giroud
bench - 4.0 ,ward prowse ,b turner , ward
0.0 in the bank... tried to form a balanced team with rvp.. lamela there as a punt...any notable flaws ?
cheers guys.
Looks pretty good for a RVP team, the Lamela punt is worthwhile and easily changed later GW if you need/want to.
8.5/10
thanks mate.
heard about brady on this forum only...are'nt redmond,barkeley playing further forward for there teams ?
CHEERS
thanks mate..thoughts on one of brady/redmond/barkeley ?
and would u prefer sturridge/giroud. ?
considering i have walcott.
Great front line - love it! The price is the rest of the team, especially GK and def.
cs i believe will dry up eventually..i hav 2 premium defenders..money in midfield too...
just concerned about one of sturridge/giroud..currently on giroud.
I see a lot of points for you this weekend. I would get some Liverpool attacking cover though as their fixtures are very tasty.
posted above..pretty set on rvp benteke ..choice between giroud/sturridge..don't really fancy coutinho that much. i could do lamela- cout...but theen again..he may disappoint me again.
8/10
Good team - Tweaks to be considered
Boruc & Enrique > Mignolet & Shaw = Saves 0.3m
Ward > Gabbidon = Bigger goal threat and Palace signed another RB on deadline day
HBA & JWP > Whittingham & ??? = HBA too inconsistent. Whittingham same job as JWP. JWP not nailed.
thanks mate..would surely look into those suggestions..but shaw seems pretty injury prone..and enrique may play further advanced if liver go 3 at the back..
considering u are a norwich fan..thoughts on redmond in place of brady ?
