Paul City’s in-form frontman continues to catch the eye. Newcastle’s on-loan forward also impresses, while we cast an eye over a couple of midlands-based midfielders and assess attacking threat from the back over this weekend and the last six Gameweeks:
UCL fantasy help please.
Cavani>Diego Costa no brainer right? Other strikers are Messi and Ronaldo.
Evening all!
My late Sunday night decision to dump Michu somehow turned into a -8 😐
I have a good feeling I can break the top 1 million as my breathtaking season continues to thrill all and sunder.
tis
Which ONE would you play from these 3?
Turner (avl), Sess (che), Brady (sou)
Turner - Villa struggling to score but surely they won't blank again?
Sess - Can't see Chelsea conceding but if they do high chance Sess is involved.
Brady - Can't see Southampton conceding but he only needs a dodgy set piece.
Thoughts? Votes?
Brady for me, as you say, the set pieces would swing my decision in his favour.
Phillippe Coutinho
heard many people on here say that coutinho is a waste.. a dissapointment only after he failed to return for 3 games this year, before getting injured. During those 3 games, coutinho was the most influential player on the pitch. Just look at the swansea game when he came off injured; liverpool had nothing going forward the moment he came off.
Last year
After being transferred to Liverpool in January, Coutinho made an immediate impact. At the back half of last year he was involved in all of Liaverpool’s play. Consider that when he was introduced to the team slowly with sub appearances after coming from inter. Last year he conjured up 3 goals and 7 assists from 923 minutes, finishing with a total score of 70. Thats 6.9 points per 90 minutes.
The brazilian magician will only get better.
I thought you said long post 🙂
He's still overpriced.
Put it this way then.. last year in the same minutes yaya toure has played this year.. he would be equal with him.. only behind ramsay.
Well I think Yaya is also overpriced.
Coutinho's scoring rate last season was due for regression based on his underlying stats.
I just dug out this discussion from May:
http://www.fantasyfootballscout.co.uk/comment/4874896
I still hold to the views in that post.
Influential yes, FF returns no.
Last year has been done.
Because of 3 games he played this year? Dont you think suarez will boost his potential? Didnt rvp blank 3 games this year? Or was it more?
Good point.Hopefully he'll catch fire with SAS, more importantly as a Pool supporter. FF points would be nice too but I'm not getting him yet.
RVP is a striker, largely dependant on good supply wheras Coutinho should be supplying stokers and hopefully get some goals of his own.
Well then take hazard for example instead of rvp!
he came close so many times for an assist when suarez wasnt there.. should be good. I want him for this week but I may just save FT. I have hazard and oscar and want to trade one out for him.. dont know which one though so ill wait!
Why are people getting rid of Giroud?
Arsenal have Soton(H), Cardiff(A), Hull(H) after Manu.
Because he isn't as good as Suarez, RvP, Rooney or Sturridge right now. And he's getting tired and doesn't put up monster point totals and has to share points with lots of possible contenders and ManU/Soton are probably the two of the worst back to back fixtures you could have.
Also, quick discussion point..
Best player who is a shite fpl pick?
I.ll start with the mighty Gary Medel
Lucas
He's their most creative player under Moyes!
Arteta. Obviously.
We will see him flower, later! 😉
Mulumbu
Yaya
Oh wait
Yes, well ... 😆
Arteta, Ramires, Wilshere, Cole,
Giroud dropping tonight, bring in wazza and hope he doesn't get injured in CL or wait it out and take the 0.1 drop in team value?
Does anyone fancy united to win tomorrow night???
yes they're in my acca
Olsson kid who plays with Norwich
Cheers. Is he regular? And did he concede 7 goals at the weekend? Does he play in midfield?
ya he plays and is quite attacking too he has played the last 5 in a row and if u look at his fixtures they are decent. Fair enough they did ship 7 goals but that was against the best in the league and that wont happen every week
stay away from norwich defenders
Girouds price dropping flies
Naples Syrup -
Artur
Alaba (c), Ivanovic, Rakitskiy
Isco, Motta, Oscar, Bruno, Kroos
Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic
Helton, Callejon, Santana, Hubocan
Ibra is a doubt.
any news on brady? Physio room thinks possibly a return to starting after the international break.
Thinking of getting him in this week
I need a new UCL striker after Müller failed to start last week (although I guess he might start wide this time with Robben out?)
13m to spend, means Messi is an easy pick, but I'd love a dabble at Ibra - such a shame that he's doubtful and Blanc is coy about 'managing his injury'. Agüero would be nice too if I could guarantee a start - not sure I trust the game pre-deadline!
What would you do with this lot?
Wiland (Courtois)
Alaba, Adriano, Marquinhos (Schär, Smolnikov)
Oscar, Hazard, Ramsey, Sam (Salah)
Ronaldo, Müller, Diego Costa
Best forward after Messi and Ronaldo for Champions League fantasy ?
Here's a taste of FPL 8 years ago to the day.
Top Forwards
Player Team £ Score
Bent Charlton 8.7 42
van Nistelrooy Man. United 12.5 37

"Last season's top striker Thierry Henry was the first player chosen by many Fantasy Managers' for their 2005-6 team, but with the Arsenal hit-man out injured, many Managers may be looking for an alternative to lead their front line in his absence. Fantasy Stats are a good way of comparing who is banging in the goals and scoring the points. Top of the current strikers is Charlton's Darren Bent, with 40 points and 5 goals. Charlton's next 4 fixtures are West Bromwich, Tottenham, Fulham and Portsmouth. West Brom top the goals conceded table with 11, with Fulham on 9 goals conceded and Portsmouth on 7. Tottenham's defense has been resolute with only 3 goals conceded, but Charlton have the home advantage in this game. Middlesbrough striker Ayegbeni Yakubu has scored twice this season, but his team also has a run of winnable fixtures, starting with Sunderland at home, then Aston Villa, Portsmouth and West Ham. Yakubu has started the last 3 games and has scored in the last 2."

nice one mate
RVP?
Great. +1
Click on the black bars at the top of the screen to see "The Pundit" from even older seasons (goes as far back as 2002 LOL).
I take it this was the predecessor of "The Scout"?
Ahh, so many memories!
Marlon Harewood 4th in the forward standings, my giddy aunt
It's Geoff Horsfield that made me go 😯
Now there's a name I haven't heard in a few years. It made me go and Wikipedia him, and it turns out he's still playing:
Geoffrey Malcolm "Geoff" Horsfield is an English former professional footballer and football coach, who is now playing for Alvechurch in the Midland Football Alliance.
Ah yes, Horsfield just about was within my living memories as WBA are my second team in the Prem having been born in Brum. Not to mention he played for Birmingham before that, brave fellow, midlands rivalry is white hot!
defoe nearly 10 mil
lollllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
So glad I didn't play back then....
Feed the Yak!
Hows this look 🙂 :
Boruc
Terry - Coleman - A.Williams
Hazard - Ramsey - Januzaj - Gerrard
Benteke - Aguero (VC) - Suarez (C)
Bench : Kelvin-Davis - Morisson - Rosenoir - Turner
1.4 millionth, any turning it around now? What a terrible season, where did it all go wrong?
Of course. Keep the faith. 🙂
Let me guess.
Not getting in Ramsey. I am in the same boat.
1.3m here, no Ramsey, still hopeful of top 100k
1.5M here, hoping for top 100K will be nice
Down to about 10k now I believe. Not having Southampton defenders or Ramsey all season has hit me hard.
Silva over Yaya?
No feedback on the last page so said I'd repost.Thoughts and suggestions appreciated
Migs / Lewis
Wilson / Shaw / Dawson / Coleman / Chester
Sess / Rambo / Silva / Townsend / Whittingham
Giroud / Suarez / RVP
1.6m in the bank
cheers
Posted this earlier, new crowd and all;
Feeling quite confident picking Hazard over Oscar as Michu's replacement (thanks to GB). There couldn't be a better stage of the season for him to hit his form, if he could stay clear of injuries and keep his place. He scored a goal against Wes Brom last season (away though), MOTM and goal against West Ham at Stamford Bridge. Scored against Stoke at Britannia as well against Southampton at the Bridge. Zero attacking points against Sunderland over two games, but they're a remarkable weaker team this season IMO. You could say the opposite on Southampton, they look like a top 6 side to me.
Oscar or Hazard, Who'll your pick?
I went Oscar Mainly because he appears more consistent in his scoring.
Fair enough. Was close to doing Michu -> Oscar as well, but changed my mind.
already have hazard
A city midfielder. Don't see any great form of Chelsea that I can commit too compared to
Others. Hazard is a bit of get some points here and there but he will give you 2's a lot and Oscar was consistent but I don't know whether there is evidence of him fading off it. So I'm staying clear I think.
Silva was on my radar as well. Got Aguero last week, and with Chelsea fixtures looking nice, I chose him over Silva.
Oscar IMO
Think someone said earlier, hazard more chance of explosion
Wait until after the International break.
great, thinking of ozil to walcott after the int break
Can't wait. Ozil -> Wally and upgrade defense.
Scored within two minutes against United last season I think. Will find it hard to score off the bench this week though.
Is giroud to Rooney really worth a hit this week?Or wait until next week?
I don't know If Rooney will out score Giroud by at least 4 pts to justify it?
Thoughts?
anyone else?
Anyone just watch buzzcocks on bbc 2 ?
Huey from FLC going ape at rizzle kicks boys. Smashed mug in their faces and stormed off
ye was a bit weird, wound himself up with the format of the show
As you do, because who doesn't want to make a show of themselves on national telvesion, its worked pretty well for the lads and lasses off Geordie Shore.
Those are the most British sentences ever uttered! 😉
OK GUys The Battle of MANCHESTER -LONDON- REST OF EPL is here
Which team would you take 😀
A) Team Manchester
de gea
zabaleta kompany vidic evra
yaya carrick
silva aguero rooney
rvp
or
B) Team London
cech
ivanovic koscielny vertonghen walker
ramsey sandro
hazard ozil oscar
giroud
or
C) Team Rest of Epl
begovic
johnson williams agger baines
mirallas gerrard michu
suarez benteke sturridge
Still just over a million in the overall rankings. Aiming for a top 10k. Am I being over-ambitious?
Nope. I was 500k GW15 last year and came top 1k
Not at all fella, just keep playing sensibly and don't do anything rash....
The cream will rise to the top ;1
Not at all.
Guys please give a little advice.
Is this lot good to go? Ignore benching as I've not looked at it yet...
Boruc
Shaw Ivan walker
Ozil Ramsey yaya ravel
Suarez Aguero Lukaku
(Davis Coleman Barkley Whittaker)
May look at playing Coleman
Basically my main focus is 2 works leagues. A classic league and most importantly a £10 per week league where top GW score warrants a return of about £250.
In short I'm happy to write this next GW off to get it right....
Currently -4 and £0 in bank.
Happy to take more hits this week if needs be
