We roll out another instalment of our new weekly article for Members this evening, offering an in-depth statistical analysis of the main captaincy contenders for the Gameweek ahead. Each of the top four supply us with a player apiece this time out as we crunch the numbers to determine whether there really is an alternative to a certain Uruguayan for the armband:
-
Saving FT then. Can't see Lukaku doing much damage at the Emirates. Arteta will be at his best.
Going to risk it with Januzaj hoping he starts.Open Controls-
Such a dilemma being a Chelsea fan....that I'm hoping Agent Lukaku does it for Chelsea.

Also a gamble on keeping Rooney. RVP, you owe me some more Rooney time buddy...

Now, I know this is irrelevant to all on here but I'm in a ML where the top points scorer each game week wins the particular week and the cash...
So what should happen if 2 people get the same score?
My View: the cash is divided in 2 and we have joint winners....
Our League Admins view: because I made my free transfer and my co-winner made no transfers then he gets the full prize fund and is manager of the week......
There was no rule for this before we started the league.....
I'm a bit p***ed offOpen Controls-
i'd say joint winners
Open Controls-
You and me both mate

What was your trade?
Open Controls-
Just my FT, a very sideways move Ivan to Terry......
Open Controls
-
-
sounds like a fair way to differentiate tbh ...
Open Controls-
Where's the need to differentiate? Sometimes there's just no differential
Open Controls-
tough one alright especially when cash is involved..
Lets say one guy transferred 6 new players in, he gets a huge advantage for that gameweek...but I'm with you that they really should have that set out from the beginning... you probably deserve the split but going frwd the transfers must be accounted for imoOpen Controls
-
-
FPL do the same.
Open Controls-
In what way?
Open Controls-
GW rank, Overall rank etc all get differentiated by transfers with equal scores.
Open Controls-
Gutted.... I still think the ML should divide cash though as rank isn't important as such
Open Controls-
Did you bench more points? Your FT ended up being a GW fail outside of price rises.
Open Controls-
Benched Coleman.... Seemed right at the time but turned out to be a huge error
Open Controls-
sorry to disturb guys
just need a little help...
1)OSCAR - HAZARD
2)OSCAR-YAYA TOURE
3)SAVE FT

I'd go Toure but most will say Hazard. Either is a good move imho

Repost
Oscar and Rooney - Hazard and long -4
Next week Long - Lukaku
Worth it? Only way I can afford to get Haz this gw and before the rises!!!! HelpOpen Controls-
Would much rather Rooney over hazard
Open Controls-
Is Oscar defiantly out?
Open Controls-
No idea, I have him in my team and will keep him for time being. Hazard scores better with oscar out of the team so when he's fit again I don't expect hazard to consistently steal the show

Thoughts on Jordan Henderson?
A good replacement for Townsend..?Open Controls -
Nasri to Hazard
or
Fonte to RidgewellOpen Controls -
With teams becoming so similar (Suarez, Aguero, Lukaku, Hazard, Ramsey, Gerrard / Ozil / Walcott, Terry, Coleman), it'll be important not to take point hits.
I spent 8 bringing in Lukaku and Walcott last week which hasn't paid off while everyone has Suarez as captain. It'll be the same story again this weekend so plan your transfers wisely.. there's the Jan WC on the horizon for any wholesale changes.Open Controls -
Captain Clarke scores 100 🙂

Yessir ... and starting to look really dangerous. Meanwhile Haddin is going to start the party methinks!

2 FT. 0.8 ITB

I like Bardsley at the < 4.5m price point. Sunderland have fantastic fixtures and can be solid at home.

Pick 2 to Bench from this crew...
Shaw (Mci) Dawson(Sund) Ivanovic (Stoke) Gabbidon (Car) , Murner (Wbrom)
At the moment I have Gabbidon and MTurner on the bench
I'm thinking of maybe benching Shaw and playing Gabbidon instead though ?
Any thoughts appreciatedOpen Controls -
Chances of Walcott coming into the team for Cazorla soon?
Doesn't seem to be doing much, surely Theo is going to be given a chance to get back in.Open Controls-
Hope he starts vs Everton.

Ozil dropped value again, seriously, wtf?
Open Controls-
FPL Towers don't like him no more.
Open Controls-
Obviously someone there in the Towers wants to buy him but is short of the required amount. 😉
Open Controls

No, something weird going on though, Totalfpl have him dropped by 1,009 teams in the last half hour, which is nonsense.
Open Controls -
for real? thats ridiculous he was only on like 450 transfers out when i last looked
Open Controls

Arrghhh... can't decide transfer!
Terry > Jags/Coleman to free cash for a Sess upgrade next week. Worth it?Open Controls -
1. Ravel to Shelvey
2. Barkley to Shelvey
3. Don't bother
4. Either to a.n.other
Feels very kneejerky/pointless bandwagon but Rav and Barkley aren't doing much and obviously Rav is bannedOpen Controls-
I have thought about getting Rav out this week too, I only bought him so its not like I loose any value on him... but I think you should give him another week.

Price Changes
Rise:
Suarez, Lukaku, J.Rod, Aguero
Shelvey, Hazard, Gerrard
Coleman, Howard
Drop:
Michu, RvPOpen Controls -
Don't fancy taking any hits, so should i do:
a) Fonte -> Ridgewell (Now)
Migs -> Howard (Next Week)
b) Save FT This week
Migs -> Howard (next week)
Giroud -> Lukaku (next week)Open Controls-
B
Open Controls -
B if money isn't important.
Open Controls-
Yeah, there's a a couple mil in the bank.
WBA have good fixtures, but defense isn't exactly tight. Am i right in thinking 2 of the regular back line are out on sat?Open Controls
-
-
Lukaku's price is going to go up, if you're doing it Sat evening then you only have 0.1 to worry about. Assuming you can afford that or Howard going up. Trying to get some last points from them is okay. I'd go with Lukaku if anyone this week but do it an hour ago.
Open Controls-
Giving Migs one last chance against West Ham (had him since gw1, but has frustrated me since)

Struggling with deciding what to do here..
0.4m in account, 2 fts..
Mignolet, Boruc
Evra, McCauley, Coleman, Wilson, B Turner
Walcott, Lallana, Morrison, Barkley, Townsend
Aguero, Rooney, Suarez
What would you bring in and for who...?Open Controls-
Attacking 8 is an issue. 6 at best now.
Open Controls -
Get rid of Rooney and Morrison for lukaku and Gerrard or keep Morrison and do lallana to hazard BT u will need money from Rooney sale
Open Controls-
2 Ft's - Gerrard + Lukaku for Lallana + Rooney..
That would leave,
Barkley, Walcott, Gerrard, Morrison, Townsend
Suarez, Aguero, Lukaku..
0.6m in bank
Worthwhile...?Open Controls-
no, you have at the moment only one nailed on midfield player = Lallana. So you have to keep him
Barkley will probably play, townsend probably wont and Morrison is suspended.
Wally will probably not start.
So you should probably get rid of Townsend and Morr this week to Whitt and Brunt who both will start.
Or do rooney and townsend to Luk and Hazard if you can afford or Whitt/Brunt.Open Controls

Tactical I think. Osvaldo replaced at 0-1.

I have Nastasic and feel I should move him as my only playing sub this week is Clyne and he is dinged up. Defense is - Evra/Nastasic/Dawson/Clyne/B.Turner. 1.8 in the bank so I could upgrade to Terry or Ivanovic but I am thinking about Kompany now that he's back. Looks like Zabaleta has only missed 1 start this year, perhaps he's a better option. Or, save the money and get Coleman in. Or go budget for someone that rotates with Clyne and store the cash. Aaarrggghh, confused.
Open Controls -
Transfer done, should have one to spare on the bench. Now it just remains to be seen if I take a hit to cover any potential rotations.
Open Controls -
Rooney + Llalana to Lukaku + Yaya???? Current total points are very similar but are Lak and Yaya the long term pairing?
Open Controls -
RMT GW15:
Migs
Coleman | Terry | Chico
Redmond | Ramsey | Hazard | Gerrard
Aguero | Suarez(c) | Lukaku
Bench: McGregor, Vlaar, Brady, Chester
0.1 in bank, 1 FT.
1. Should I play Coleman or Vlaar? Or Both to do a 4-3-3?
2. Anything else to improve in my squad or should I use the FT? Or save FT?Open Controls-
play coleman, I don't know much of Redmond but between Redmond and Brady if you were to use your trsf
