Monitor – Michu

With just a single assist to show for his endeavours over the first three Gameweeks, Fantasy faith in Michu took a dent ahead of last Monday’s home clash with Liverpool. The Swansea midfielder shed almost 66,000 owners in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game and suffered a drop in price due to his lack of attacking returns but after opening his account against the Reds, he’s back on many a radar as Michael Laudrup’s side prepare for a kind upcoming run of fixtures.

    Is it just me or can the Ticker be a bit confusing at times?

    For example Cardiff- Everton gw7, Hull- West Ham gw6 both teams have blueish colors ie. an easy game. How can you give both teams +ev for the same game?

    Shouldn't they count each other out (neutral grey color) or just be light blue and light red.

      It's not exactly likelihood of a win - its just strength of opponent I think. Both sides are playing a weak opponent.

    WC question

    My main mid is Walcott and I want to keep him along with Ramsey since the latter is playing on the wing. Barkley and Tiote are the 4th and the 5th mids.

    Now I've doubt for next GW as far as concerns the third spot in the midfiled. In the long term (max 2 GWs) I want to bring Michu in, but HBA has a better fixture on Saturday against HULL.

    What do you think? Is it better to have HBA for one and only GW and then selling him out for Michu? Or should I save the transfer and go Michu directly?

      Michu Palace away isn't a bad game. Might outscore HBA anyway so just get him straight in.

      Don't rate Tiote for FPL though, Barkley might be in trouble as well once Pienaar and Gibson are fit.

    LoLP

    On WC, with 13.5 to spend on two premium defenders, hopefully this might make the decision clearer..

    Baines - Tempting, but I already have Coleman
    Vertonghen - Again tempting, but does he really justify his price tag of 7
    Walker - Put off by the fact that CBs are gobbling up the BAPS & he always looks shaky
    Vidic - I can see rotation coming for United centrebacks once they enter easier fixtures, Evans will get gametime, not to mention Jones/Smalling
    Evra - Has looked more like the player of old recently, getting forward and linking well with the LM, tempting even though he may lose out on a few BAPS.
    Ivanovic - Some kinder fixtures coming up for Chelsea who will rebound sooner rather than later, worried that he keeps missing out on BAPS though
    Zabaleta & Kompany - both the same price, it's too hard to split these two IMO

    What are your thoughts? Who would you go for? Am I putting too much emphasis on BAPS? Do I ask too many questions? 😉

        A fair chance. Fridays are usually manic so he could do 50% + in a day - especially because he's a reasonable candidate for a Coutinho replacement, as long as buyers have a spare 1.1 million. It really depends if a lot of wildcarders want to get him.
