We analyse the numbers from Saturday and Sunday’s matches as Fantasy managers assess their options ahead of the double Gameweek. United’s misfiring Dutchman, Hull’s pair of strikers, a couple of Goodison Belgians, Cardiff’s new Spanish centre-half and Tottenham’s toils up top are all on our radar in the first of this week’s members articles:

    Worth going Olsson ---> Any DGW defender under 5.8 for a hit??

    Already have: Coleman, Kosc for DGW (also Ward, Azpi with 1 game a piece)

    If I get a DGW in for Olsson I will have 11 DGW players (or Hazard + 10).

    If it is worth it, who should I get? A West Ham defender? Double up on Everton?

        Not worth it IMO. Norwich has Sunderland at home so a good shout for a cleanie.

        M. Olsson or J. Olsson? If M., I'd take a chance on him against SUN at home. If J., I'd be tempted. Is it only a -4 pt hit?

          Its M. Olsson - vs Sunderland.

          I was thinking of taking -4 (only -4) to shift him for someone like Demel who has MANU and HULL.

          Or perhaps double up onEverton defender?

    Who would you play for this DGW Mannone or Adrian?

    Mannone has NOR & LIV both (A)

    Adrian has MANU & HULL both (H)

    Mannone has the better form and the best fixture (NOR) but also worst (LIV)
    Adrian is in ok form but I am not as worried about MANU as LIV and I would say NOR is in slightly better form than HULL at the moment

    What do others think?

      Kos has harder fixtures after DGW.

    Is it worth taking another hit this week (-8) and doing Snod > AJ?

    Would leave me with 9 for the DGW. Cheers 🙂

      I'd get in Nolan if you haven't got him yet.

      Not sure about AJ this week. Can see Sun-Nor being a 0-0, and Sunderland scoring 1 against Liverpool.

        not sold on AJ this week, if you want to take the hit get nolan but i'd probably just keep Snod, good fixtures and form

    What does everybody think about Collins' game time this DGW?

    Is it worth getting in Kolarov/Zabaleta for a hit?

    On a side note, that transfer will mean an extra hit to get in Aguero in GW34 if needed.

      Forget about Collins. Not Kolarov.

    Set of questions..

    1. Azpi or Chester (-4) or Zaba (-4). Will keep Azpi on bench for later 2.

    2. Sterling or Gerrard (-4)

    So Jelavic has been bossing Lukaku in the stats of late - is anyone considering going with an EVE trio of Baines, Coleman & Mirallas with Jelly up front?

      Not sure Baines is worth his price tag right now. I think I'd avoid Mirallas.

    Who is a decent replacement for Chambers? Only have 4.0. Current defense, Coleman, Cahill, Azpi, Chester, Chambers.

        That is what I was thinking. O'Brien is still out injured. Thanks 😀

    Mirallas - fark he's frustrating to own, BUT no midfielders have had more shots in the box this season. Tempted to stick with him but will mean dropping one of Baines, Coleman or Lukaku....

      See above. He's greedy BUT not a clinical finisher...

      So shots kinda mean nothing.

      I would pick Baines, Coleman and Lukaku over Mirallas.

      Mirallas is horse shit. He has a shot inside the box he hits the corner flag with it.

      Could easy be dropped for next game.
