A number of midfielders are placed under the spotlight, with Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Liverpool all serving up some strong statistics. The performance of United’s frontmen at Villa and Tottenham’s inability to find the net under the now-departed Andre Boas-Villa also come under analysis as we delve into the data.
id play olson over chester
Open Controls
Everyones going to have a midfield of hazard silva walcott ramsey soon.... how boring
Open Controlsthats my plan too
Open Controls
Agree - the Aguero injury is freeing up funds to invest in the premium mids
Open Controls
Was thinking of doing aguero to Rooney anyway. Sometimes its nice to have your hand forced. Now i cam finally sell sess. Just don't know if its worth the -4 seeming he's vs hull. .?.
Open Controls
not to mention suarez + rooney/lukaku/negredo..plus jags/coleman..effectively most ppl will have at least 8 similar players out of 11
Open Controls
Choosing the right 4.0 defender and 5th midfielder is starting to have more importance haha
Open Controls
a -8 could give me a great midfield....
Open Controlswhat are your thoughts on this team for a -4?
Myhill (Howard)
Chico - Ward - Mert
Ozil - Ramsay - Coutinho - Giacherinni
Lukaku - Suarez (C) - Negredo
Terry, Rav, Burner
1.3 INBOpen Controlsgives me the flexibility to trade out ramsay/cout next week
Open Controls
looks decent. coutinho is playing well, but just don't getting points, and giacherinni could also be upgraded with the money in the bank. maybe hazard.
Open Controlscheers, he played in the hole last week and sunderland have a very favourable run of fixtures, may be worth a punt. I'll sit on it for a while, none of my players look set to drop (brady should stay 5.0) so i will re-assess at end of week
Open Controls
Morning dzz, already did the aguero >> rooney swap, have 1 more FT and 1.4m
Myhill (boruc)
distin mert dawson (olson burner)
ramsey hazard coutinho nasri (januza)
suarez rooney lukaku
A: boruc >> howard/de gea...as foster is back. however this wont leave me with funds to get wally
B: boruc >> speroni/guzan...leaves enuf funds to do coutinho >> wally next gw
C: coutinho/nasri >> wally/silva
D: save FT and carry it over...and hope myhill plays this gwOpen ControlsCoutinho to Wally was my planned transfer for this week - I know he has Cardiff but he just doesn't rack up the FPL points
Open Controls
Cout to Silva!
Open Controls
Either go with C - Coutinho to Silva - or hold Coutinho for Liverpool's home game against Cardiff before going ahead with the same transfer next GW
Open Controlsthat was the plan but more worried abt not having a playin keeper this gw
Open Controls
Morning lads,would you rather have:
A) Zaba + Sess
B) Williamson + Silva
C) Williamson + Walcott
D) Sagna + Nasri
I have Ramsey as Arsenal cover but no city attacking cover!Open ControlsI'd go for D - the extra Sagna clean sheets should cover the gap between Nasri & Silva
Open Controls
I'm currently at 1.5 million overall; but I also started 4 weeks late. I'm having a hard time determining if I am actually performing well; or poorly. :/
Open ControlsEveryone taken hits this week, you could be 8pts above everyone in your league before the Saturday ... Not me though I took a hit
Open Controls*this Staurday
Open Controls
I don't think many in my ML will be, such a shame Aguero got injured as now a lot of people will have the exact same strike force as ive had for a while of Lukaku Rooney Suarez.
Open Controls
This. Rooney was my differential but looks as though everyone will jump on him now
Open Controls
I think quite a few will but not all
Open Controls
Yeah it's getting very template like. I really hope it spreads out a bit. Don't want everyone converging. Also the Jan wildcard may become pointless if you only want to bring in one or two players
Open Controls
Why is everyone taking hits?
I did Aguero --> Rooney and saved the cash to upgrade him back.
Simple.Open ControlsHi All,
2FTs this GW, worth taking a 4pt hit for Mertesacker, A.Williams & Sessegnon > Chester, Gabbidon & Silva?
Ruddy
Mertesacker M.Wilson G.Johnson
Ozil Hazard Ramsey Sessegnon
Rooney(vc) Suarez(c) Lukaku
Vorm Pozuelo A.Williams ClyneOpen ControlsHold on to mertesacker, after this week arsenal have a great run of fixtures
Open Controls
Quick question please guys
A. Chico to Evans (or other around the 5.0 mark)
B. Nasri to silva/Walcott
C. Ozil to silva/Walcott
D. Save FT
I have 1.3 banked and team currently -
Howard
B. Turner - Chester - Ridgewell
Nasri - Oscar - Ozil - RavMo
Lukaku - Rooney - Suarez
------ Barkley - Vlaar - ChicoOpen ControlsA is what i'm doing, I also own Nasri and although he is frustrating his stats make him worth keeping.
Open ControlsDo you think Evans will start most games during Christmas period?
Open ControlsNot to sure but he has started 9 out of the last 11 games, might be worth getting Evra instead?
Open ControlsNa I wanna keep my defence budget
Open ControlsFair enough i do think Evans is the most nailed on of the CB's, Vidic/Ferdinand are more likely to be rotated,
Open ControlsJust went through fixtures and no other team bar united standing out to me. Will have a think bout it but will most likely go with Evans. Thanks for the help
Open Controls
Just seen Man u play in the cup, if Evans doesn't play i imagine he will be nailed on in the league.
Open ControlsTrue good point
Open Controls
Look good?

Hi lads
Brought Benteke in 3 weeks ago, now i've paid my price for stickin with him and hes got to go.
Current team;
Hey lads,
Brought Tekers in 3 weeks ago thinking he will come good. Hes had some bright moments in the games with headers but isn't playing like he was earlier this year.
Time to go after multiple blanks.
Current team;
Migs/4.0
Coleman,Chester, Lovern, Zaba, Johnson
Silva, Ramsey, Oscar, Januzaj, Kim
Suarez, Lukaku, Benteke
Have 0.8m ITB and 2 FT
Was thinking Benteke->Negredo considering aguero is out for a few games.
Can't really afford much more.
Other options could be Remy, Giroud, Osvaldo, berbatov.
Not sure who to go with, but tekers really needs to pick up or gtfo.Open ControlsRooney? Downgrade Lovern and GJ maybe?
Open Controls
Howard already 5.9. What a joke.
Open Controls
how fer playing last game?? any good?

How to get Walcott to this front 8?
Silva Ozil Hazard Ramsey Whttingham
Rooney Suarez Lukaku
Can do Ramsey --> Walcott but not sure about that move, he has about 90% owners and still keep scoring.Open ControlsOzil may be.
Open ControlsBetween Ozil and Ramsey..
Open Controls
Am I one of those who refused to get Ramsey in?
I just did a 12 point hit this week and still no Ramsey
But Ozil to Walcott is a move I did. Guess both will score ard the same points at the end of the dayOpen ControlsI never got him. ONy reason I'm suffering is cos he was cheap at the beginning and now them players have cash to spend. Not such much cos of his actions
Open Controls
I want to get rid of Giroud this week and Sess + GJ next week.
If I bring in Negredo, I've got 7.1 to spend on Sess next week - not much.
To add to the funds, I can also trade GJ to Williamson for 8.4 to replace Sess.
That's still not enough for a good replacement - preferably Silva.
I can do the other trades with 8.6 to spend on a striker. Any ideas?
I'm liking Hooper basing on his track record.Open Controls
I personally think Hooper could be an excellent buy! It's between him and Berbatov for my Aguero replacement!
Open ControlsHaha great 🙂
Berba looks alright but I'd need more convincing. I think against Villa that was a penalty so not much real form.Open ControlsWhat are you gonna do with all the cash?
Open ControlsYeah, he'd have like over 6 mil.
Hey, with my cash I can upgrade Sess and Ramsey to Silva and Walcott 😀Open ControlsTempting alright. Though for me it's big name strikers first, thats where the consistent points are, then midfield
Open ControlsBut with the proven names out and a WC coming in a month it doesn't hurt for some gambles considering everyone is building the same squad.
Open ControlsThe proven names aren't out though, just one. Lukaku, Rooney even Remy and Negredo are pretty consistent. But yeah it's the right time for gambles and it does make it more fun
Open Controls
Who is a decent midfielder for 7.9 price? I already have Ramsey, Yaya, RavMo and Kasami. I am looking to ship out Lampard for a decent midfielder till the mid-Jan.
Open Controls
Will Suarez keep up his goal scoring form? Yay or nay?
Open ControlsRepost because of very few replies,would you rather have:
A) Zaba + Sess
B) Williamson + Silva
C) Williamson + Walcott
D) Sagna + Nasri
I have Ramsey as Arsenal cover but no city attacking cover!Thanks in advanceOpen Controls
Worth doing Nasri/Mirallas -> Walcott (4 points) this week?
Won't be able to afford Mirallas -> Walcott next weekOpen Controls
If you cant afford it then yes.
Open ControlsMirallas
Open Controls
Take That hit
Open Controls
You could always take a hit next week.
Open ControlsTrue, but then I'd miss Walcott for his home tie this week (usually a fair few goals in this fixture) and I'd be losing Mirallas/Nasri next week when they both have home fixtures.
Open ControlsThought it was away. If you want him then it's this week.
Open Controls
If he is taking hit then wally is ten times better than mirallas
Open Controls
Mirallas to Wally a no brainer for me
Open Controls
How much do you all reckon this lot will score me?\
Howard
Jags, Johnson, Evans
Azard, Silva, Wally, Ramsey
Lukaku, NegredoOpen ControlsRather 11 players.
Open ControlsWould you play yourself as the11 th

obviously he has suarez © as everyone else

Already done Aguero > Negredo
Gazzaniga, Harper
Dawson, Coleman, Distin, Ward, Turner
Ozil, Hazard, Ramsey, Brunt, Morrison
Suarez, Rooney, Negredo
1.9m in bank.
Thinking of ditching Dawson and upgrading to Zabaleta.Open ControlsFT?
If not hold on to Dawson for now IMO.Open ControlsNearly sold Dawson for a hit this week. Still might.
Good attack so that trade is good or save.Open ControlsDowngrade dawson. You need a better fourth mid. Next week make 2 trades and upgrade brunt.
Open ControlsI agree you need a better 4th mid. Can downgrading Ozil to Walcott give you cash for Silva or someone? If so I'd consider a 4pt hit or do it next week.
