We delve into the data from Saturday’s five fixtures and assess the stand-out performers from Gameweek 29. Cardiff’s goal-scoring centre-half, Fulham’s new Greek acquisition, the Canaries’ playmaker, United’s front two and Chelsea’s Spanish full-back are just a few of the subjects under this evening’s radar:

In all honesty he is not first team BPL material.
Open Controls-
But I have him in my FPL team. That's what important!
Open Controls-
Switch him out, maybe for a triple DGW`er like Bardsley (4.3) or Williamson (4.2). Anyways I can only see 1 more clean sheet for Palace til the end of the season...(might be a blessing in disguise)

Hazard - Sidwell - Noble - Yaya Toure (vc)
Aguero (c) - Crouch - Remy
Bench:
Adrian - Gerrard - Koscielny - Dawson - Evra - Sterling - SuarezOpen Controls -
I know it's early but what you reckon Abbot this WC team?
Adrian
Coleman - Evra - Bruce / Azpi
Cazorla - Sterling - Hazard - Silva
Aguero - Suarez - SturridgeOpen Controls-
Looks interesting. A bit different midfield, but might pay off big time. You think Bruce is nailed on?
Open Controls-
Agree rather get Chester when he's fit he plays

Looks good, I'd go Chester over Bruce as well. I've had no luck on the Silva wagon twice this year, but I understand with all the dgws you want a City mf.
Open Controls-
Yeah I'm still anti Yaya and planning not to have him at all this season.
I'm hoping for a late burst of form for Silva. Considering he has 12 games compared to Gerrard 9's for example, he offers a decent value even at that price.Open Controls-
Gerrard doesn't have 9 matches remaining. Look again.

Why has Ross Barkley's game time dropped so dramatically?
Open Controls-
-
How much is Sissoko (.5 or .6?) Huddlestone/Livermore might be a good pick too..
Open Controls

Martinez rushed him back from his last injury, so maybe he kinda feels to have to protect him better?! I wouldn`t go anywhere near Barkley for the DGW. A lot of better options for almost the same price everywhere...
Open Controls-
Who? Would love Sissoko but he is too dear, .1 short
Open Controls-
HE might really come good. Cabaye`s transfer looks to have benefited him a lot. He looks very sharp and threatening, the same as last year when they signed him and he was getting the points week in week out..
Open Controls-
Cabaye's transfer.. whaaa?
He hasn't made much of an impact. In the ICT top 10 (index) one time since Cabaye left. Two times in the creativity column.
He's not exactly setting the world alight... he's a very punty DGW punt. Any manager's money is much better spent on getting Baines in for some crusty uber like Chester, IMOOpen Controls

What do you guys about this team for DGW?
Mannone
Chester-Collins-Baines
Nolan-Hazard-Nasri-Yaya
Suarez(C)-Remy-Lukaku
I also have my wildcard. Any changes i should make?Open Controls-
personally I think that you will hurt without aguero and sturridge but to each his own. remy and lukaku have potential to score well too
Open Controls-
I'm not too keen on Aguero at the moment. Im not sure City would risk him and let him play the full 180 min during GW 31. I honestly prefer to have Remy and Lukaku for DGW, Everton got favourable fixtures and Newcastle are playing both games at St james park where he is deadly. Remy, Lukaku, Suarez> Suarez Sturridge Aguero for GW 31

After the weekend exit from FA cup, On Wednesday City goes out of UCL. BPL is their only way to save a much promising season, and considering the lack of goals recently, Pelle will def rely on Aguero if fit and try to make a strong statement to Mou, which has now 3 victories at hand. Kun will play till he drops IMO. No point on saving/easing him for anything.

Very less points potential there , also I have Adam** to ship out. I have 1 FT, should I use my WC this week or next ?

Boruc
Shaw Azpi Cahill
Haz Lalla Mata Noone
Ade Sua Stu
Mannone Ward Koscielny ADAM
1 FT, 1.8 in bankOpen Controls-
It depends on the team you wanna get for GW 31 onwards?! If you are palnning on relying strongly on EVE n City for the DGW I would def WC this week to take advantage of GW 30 fixts as well + catch some inevitable price rises for the players you might wanna bring (yaya, Kun, Coleman, Baines, Lukaku etc)

If I still had my wildcard, I would focus all my current and future transfers on fielding up eleven DGW-ers and use the wildcard to refresh the team.
Since that's not the case here and am only seeing 5 or possible 6 DGW-ers, it would be better to wildcard next week, prior to DGW31.
It also depends if you have any plans to make room for Aguero. That will need major changes to fit his value in. However, Aguero will be selected ahead to start against Barcelona so I wouldn't be hasty in making the changes now or hastily come to a decision now. Wait for the UCL games to go by, then reassess your team and post here again and there might just be something different for you.Open Controls-
why would the team need refreshing after the dgw?
current WC team i'm looking at would have 2-3 city, 1 everton, 2 sunderland, 2 palace - all who have dgws still to come
plus SAS and haz who are good assets regardlessOpen Controls -
Thanks Grounderz for your reply.
The fact is this season is a bit different IMO. The strategy your are saying to refresh your team after DGW is a proven one and works but this season we would like to keep Everton (1-2) , City (3) , Hazard etc till the end of the season. So WCing is the best idea I think.Open Controls-
I don't have a season wildcard anymore and have not made any deeper assessment on that so I could be wrong.
My initial notion is that if I were five gameweeks away from DGW31 and with the season wildcard still hanging around, I would of gone with the strategy I mentioned above. The fixtures for some teams take different turns for the good and bad after GW31 and readjustments might seem a good move. Wildcarding prior to DGW31 should have equal benefits as well - you might be right there. This season is slightly different.
Hmm, I don't know about getting and keeping three City players. Too great of a risk with their congested fixtures, almost three games a week that might affect their form, etc.Open Controls

Surely, you need Adrian in there. I understand you want Mannone for his three DGWs.
Overall, I think it's solid and strong. Although I don't like having three Liverpool players but I see your point - haven't got much competitions for them to compete and they're on scoring spree home and away.
Have you considered Lukaku? Should get you some cash to upgrade Sterling, possibly to Nolan who I fancy a lot for DGW31.Open Controls-
boruc > adrian? west ham don't have a great run in though. and I do have demel
why do you think adrian is so essential?
good point about lukaku. but I believe Suarez Sturridge Aguero is THE frontline to have for the double.
zaba > kolarov or someone cheaper would allow me to upgrade AJ to nolan. thoughts on that?Open Controls-
Your going to want chelsea def, DGW or no DGW

Prefer Lallana to either, I could get both if I changed him
We'll see what happens 🙂Open Controls

Well it could pay off nicely but I'm not big of such a heavy defense.I'd rather Disin and Nasri/Silva/Yaya than Baines and Lallana. Double Everton Defense almost destroyed me when I went for it a few months ago...
Open Controls

Still in doubt if I should get aguero or lukaku...
In lukaku's favor is the fact that I will not (c) aguero in the dgw as the armband will go to one of the pool boys.
The downside is that aguero might be very expensive when I try to get him in a couple of gws.

Ok, I think my team is finally setting itself. Current draft on:
Mannone 3.9
Baines - Cahill - Ward - Collins - Chester
Hazard - Yaya - Nolan - AJ - Puncheon
Suarez - Sturridge - Lukaku
Thoughts? 🙂Open Controls-
Collins might end up losing his spot to Reid. I'd prefer Aguero of Luka
Open Controls-
I'd prefer him as well but it'd almost 4mln difference between them and I don't like the general look of my team with Aguero in it, way too many sacrifices.
Still debating Collins myself - he has really decent goal threat and he's a BAPS magnet, but as you said, he may loose his place.Open Controls
