Paul We delve into the data of the Gameweek 27 fixtures this evening in the first of this week’s members articles. Cardiff’s new midfielder, Hull’s Croatian marksman, the form men up front at Liverpool and City and Norwich’s weekend match-winner are all on the radar:
Who's more likely to keep a clean sheet this week: Chelsea at Fulham or Everton home to West Ham?
I'd say Chelsea, a team on a defensive role v. a team you wonder where the goals can come from.
Lots of talk on the West Ham forum tonight that if hull draw their fa cup game in GW 29 then the GW 31 West Ham v Hull game would be moved again. Looking at champ league dates i make em right.
GW 29 - 8th March
12th/13th March (GW 29) and 18th/19th (GW 30) March are Champions League dates so a no go ( same for any talk of a Liverpool game in GW 29 as it goes - unless they play on a Monday which I can`t see Hull having any of.)
so that leaves 25th/26th March as really the only viable FA Cup replay dates which is the GW 31 DGW (as the FA cup semi`s are on the 12th April and the 1/2 April and 8/9 April are also Champions League).
If Uefa did not allow Hull v Brighton on a champions league date I can`t see them budging for anything else
Unless Hull play Fa Cup on the friday of course, that would allow a Hull v Liverpool game on the Monday in GW 29
The big elephant in the room with all this 29 blank, 31 DGW chat is that all teams still in FA cup could progress further leading to further blanks. Anyone know what week next round of cup is and what fixtures are therefore at risk?
UEFA really need to start seeing that the Premier League is developing a pretty big backlog that will likely need some dispensation from what they like.
The games will need to be played at some point, and the hard stance of UEFA will soften as there's few available slots for games to be played so that the season ends on time.
It'd be simpler to just ditch the FA cup. The whole thing seems pointless. Can't even watch it on a TV in the US at times and the stadium crowds don't seem to be much.
Yes shadow let's abandon 100+ years of tradition because the US does not screen it. The FA cup is the one where all those non-league amateur teams get to have a crack to win it starting from the early qualifiers
The league cup is the really pointless one
I just saw mid level teams with nothing much else to play for tank the FA cup with feeble line-ups (e.g. Southampton) so from the outside it seems almost as pointless as the League Cup. The half-hearted line-ups are a regular event. Plenty of comps that used to have a lot of tradition and relevance have now bitten the dust. Times change.
Southampton was a strange one
Perhaps pochettino agrees with you
i whole heartedly disagree with you... the fa cup is to decide the best knockout team in the country... all the leagues for the most consistent...
very happy that australia are starting the FFA cup... be great if the marconi stallions or some state league side wins.
Sry repost
Giroud to Ade worth -4?
And
Could Cole get the start against Fulham with Azpi playing Wed?
Not sure if/when to do silva to snodgrass for a hit. I need him next week to field 11.
A) this week, but I would either bench or play over Kos / Ivan / Cahill / lallana
B) next week
C) not at all and save myself 4 pts
I already have Sturridge > RVP (c) lined up as my FT next week and I have a WC to use week 30 or 31
Any help or thoughts appreciated 🙂
I understand the Snodgrass wagon, but I have a hard time imaging him as a player you'd take a hit for. So B.
Come to think of it, I just passed on bringing Snodgrass in because I couldn't do it without a hit.
I would not do it without a WC to flush him back out for free
I guess I view it as he highly likely to score at least 2 pts so I start -2 with only upside from there
But if he's on your bench . . .
Makes more sense if you know you're going to start him this week.
Leaning towards making the move next week for when I need him. He, RVP or anyone else from my team could get injured on the weekend changing my plans so I guess I have answered my own question with B
Thanks for your help coach 🙂
Morning DZers 🙂
How best to use my WC to maximise potentials for the upcoming DGWs? Before/after?
My team currently:
Adrian Marshall
Coleman Fabio Olsson Azpi Ward
Hazard Mata Sterling Lallana Januzaj
Ade RVP Suarez
Currently have 2 FT and 1.7 ITB. Going to do Januzaj > Snodgrass this week, leaving me with 1FT.
Use your free transfers to load up on GW31 doublers and WC in GW32. You'll know by then how the future DGW landscape looks. If you WC in GW31 you'll want another one the next week. Three City with one being Aguero looks essential since they are looking at 3 DGWs
I don't really need to WC after GW31 though? I plan on keeping Mata and RVP till the end. City players I don't mind too. I already have Mata/RVP so I have a few GWs to shift some players to Man City players. Best to load up until that 2nd DGW where the majority have one and then WC after?
I've only got 1 home player for GW28, 2 out and two doubtful. Could be a bad week
Depends how much value you've got tied up in him unless you don't want him back in two weeks. He's dropping but can't drop much, I'd say
I wouldn't do it.
But if you happen to be my mini league leader, then go ahead. I'd quite like you to take -4 taking Yaya out and then likely another one to get him back in.
just getting to surface, Is the hull vs west ham game (GW 29) postponed now?
Who is the best Mert replacement after next week? Selling price is 6.0 with 0.2itb and other defenders are Coleman, Terry, Olsson and Ward. Thinking of either Fonte or doubling up on Chelsea defence through Azpi or Cahill.
Your options sound pretty good. Would have a punt on Evra. Plays up top often and very important to the way United play and their fixtures are looking better.
Your thinking is sound but wait as long as you can, it could all look different next week
I'd spread the love & get Fonte. Decent goal threat and playing in a defensively sound team.
What should I use my FT Transfers on?
http://gyazo.com/306276a24f903320dd4c6a5875fb0981
Price Changes
Risers : Sturridge, Nolan, Davies & Adrian
Fallers : Johnson, JRod, Ki, DeGea, Navas, Negredo, Emnes, Scocco
Make sure you join the FPL Open if you are inside the top 50K.
Currently 40K qualifies. Code is 58-315. GW29 deadline.
Oh I can I'm 18k OR now 😉
Might need to be under 10K by GW29 to qualify so you may need 2 green arrows.
Every time you recruit I slip further from safety 🙁
The last week will probably see a rush of entries.
Eriksen.... Dead log.. shall I use 1FT on him at this crucial point?
I can have a playing 11 on the pitch on GW29 if use the FT for Navas, provided Eriksen plays against Chelsea.
Speroni / Marshall
Ivanovic, Azpilicueta, Baines, Mertesacker, Olsson
Hazard, Mata, Navas, Eriksen, Snodgrass
Suarez, Sturridge, JRod,
Who are good midfielders to replace Mata and Yaya that play both GW28 & GW29, No Lallana
I'm keeping Mata personally. Not many options that play both weeks, especially if u take Lallana out of the equation.
Tom Ince looks a decent option to free up cash for a later purchase of Aguero. Has a DGW on the horizon too
I don't care I won't lose value on Yaya bought for 10.1 and United are crap so I want rid of Mata would getting Ince and Snod in for them be worth it for 2 FT? And i don't need to free cash as I will likely keep one of them and get Yaya in for one
Teams playing bothe the weeks:
Chelsea, Tottenham, Southampton, Norwich, Stoke City, Fulham, Crystal Palace, Cardiff CIty, Hull City
So, Chelsea mids for starters... Hazard, Lampard.
Maybe Paulinho.
Charlie Adam from Stoke.
Snodgrass
Sidwell, Puncheon / Ince, Noone, etc could be short time punts.
Thank you very useful mate cheers
When would you plan to play the WC with this squad?
A) GW30/31 to load up on DGWers in GW31
B) later on in the season for the next set of DGWs (expected around GW34 I believe)
Szczesny
Terry, Kolarov, B Davies
Hazard, Silva, Mirallas, Lallana
Suarez, Sturridge, Benteke
Davis, Puncheon, Demel, Whittaker
Bank 0.1m, 2 freebies, 1 WC
Adam or Snodgrass ? Leaning toward Adam as Norwich barely score
Snoddy. Best of the 2 options IMO. But don't like either to be fair
Penny for your thoughts guys:
....................Adrian (4.0)..................
Azpil - Kosc - Fonte - Mariappa - Burner
Mata - Haz - Lallana - Sterling - Mutch
.............Studge - Suaz - Ade ...........
0FT & 2.7 ITB
I have potentially only 7 players for GW29 as people like Mariappa, Mutch & Burner might not play.
How do these trannys sound next week?
Kosc > Ollson (Nor)
Sterling > Ince
Studge > Rooney
All for -8pts. Will give me maybe 10 players for GW29 & ill be able to afford Ade > Kun the following week.
went with a differential approach when lots here get snoddy instead.
rid of silva & toure for
WIllian and Paulinho.
lets see if my punt beats the likes of snoddy adam
I will have 2FT for Gameweek 29 and can get rid of some deadwood (Gnabry, Flanagan) while freeing up funds to do Adebayor>Aguero for the week after:
Which defender and midfielder would you pick out of this list? I also only have 7 players so far for GW29.
Midfielders: Noone, Jedinak (has an extra game), Bradley Johnson
Defenders: Dann (has an extra game), Chester, Chambers, Bennet
Evening. Anyone looking at Lampard for the next few?
na
Hey guys, currently sitting a top of our cash league but wanting to keep ahead of the game:
Currently my team is :
Mannone,Seproni
Cahill,merits,shaw,ollsson,ward
Yaya,mata,hazard,lallana,noone
SAS,ade
I have 2 FT for this week , thinking YAYA out then bring him back in 2 weeks time , any advice would be awesome ..
is forca back?
Best option here fellas? Will be WCing in GW30.
(A) GW28: Kolarov & Silva -> Bassong & Snoddy
GW29: Benteke & Sturridge -> RVP & Rooney (4 points)
(B) GW28: Kolarov & Silva -> Ivanovic & Snoddy
GW29: Benteke & Sturridge -> RVP & Lambert (4 points)
(C) GW28: Kolarov & Silva -> Bassong & Willian/Lamps
GW29: Benteke & Sturridge -> RVP & Lambert (4 points)
B
Morning DZ.
Good morning
Right then think i've sort of made my mind up
Boruc / McGregor
Koscielny, Aspilicueta, Collins, Ward, Flanagan
Hazard, Adam, Lallana, Noone, Yaya
Rvp, Suarez, Sturridge
This week: Koscielny & Yaya -> Cahill & Snodgrass / Ince (-4)
Next week: Flanagan -> Evans
Week after I can wildcard
Gives me a 4-5-1 for GW 29. Sounds good.... any better suggestions out there?
If Kosc is fit this week it makes more sense to do Flanagan > Cahill (instead of Kosc) as Arsenal are more likely to get a CS than Pool.
And you should be able to afford Evra over Evans. He's surely a safer and better option and since you're wildcarding the week after, price doesn't matter.
Same. What makes it worse is both my keepers have a DGW in the same week!
Is the Sunderland DGW in GW29 as well, has that been confirmed?
I have 10 out, will be fine with that.
Having a bit of a nightmare recently so I may go nuts on hits to set up my team for the doubles and see what happens.
Ppl. here saying there is a chance SUN vs LIV might be scheduled on GW 29. Nothing certain though. We`ll have to wait and see i guess.
